The governing system of nonlinear partial differential equations has transformed into a system of ordinary differential equations using similarity transformations. The system is then solved numerically using a successive linearization method. The numerical results of velocity, temperature, and concentration profiles are represented graphically. Several parameters’ effects are investigated and examined. Local Nusselt number, skin friction coefficient, porosity, Deborah numbers, and local Sherwood number numerical values are listed and analyzed. The results reveal that many parameters have a significant impact on the fluid flow profiles. The concentration profiles were considerably affected by the reaction rate parameter, and the concentration thickness of the boundary layer decreased as the reaction rate parameter increased. The results of the analysis were compared to the results of existing works and found to be in excellent agreement.","PeriodicalId":14766,"journal":{"name":"J. Appl.

To study these properties, we use an aquatic ecological system containing one fish species and an underlying resource as our models. In particular, we study a class of stage-structured population systems with and without starvation. In these models, we study the resilience, the recovery potential, and the probability of extinction and show how these properties are affected by different harvesting rates, both in a deterministic and stochastic setting. In the stochastic setting, we develop methods for deriving estimates of these properties. We estimate the expected outcome of emergent population properties in our models, as well as measures of dispersion. In particular, two different approaches for estimating the probability of extinction are developed. We also construct a method to determine the recovery potential of a species that is introduced in a virgin environment.","PeriodicalId":14766,"journal":{"name":"J. Appl.

However, when initial conditions stabilize into sound waves or cavitation, then reciprocal of self-similar parameter approaches finite value. Further, it is proved that initial conditions can be parametrized so that some of the initial conditions stabilize into sound wave solutions. The rest of the initial conditions are proved to be stabilized into cavitation. This extends the work of G. I. Taylor to the case of cavitation. It is proved that quasisimple wave solutions exist for the balance laws comprised of Euler’s system of equations in the case of cylindrically and spherically symmetric cases.

In all cases, the Hutchinson equation with harvesting was forced to converge to equilibrium using an additional and a different time delay parameter, a deficiency previous researchers have failed to address when the Hutchinson model is used for this purpose. The population fluctuations are catered for with this model making the estimated maximum sustainable growth and harvest reflect realities as this model drastically reduces time-delay associated oscillations compared to the well-known Hutchinson delayed logistic models.

The thermal radiation based on the Rosseland approximation is incorporated in the energy equation. Uniform applied magnetic field and first-order homogenous chemical reaction are included in the momentum and concentration equations, respectively. The novel mathematical flow model is constructed by using a set of partial differential equations (PDEs). The PDEs are then transformed into an equivalent set of ordinary differential equations (ODEs) and solved by applying the Laplace transform method. However, the time domain solutions are obtained by using the INVLAP subroutine of MATLAB. Physical parameters influencing thin-film velocity, temperature, and concentration are illustrated graphically, while those affecting skin friction, heat, and mass transfer rates are presented in a tabular form. It is found that thin-film velocity and temperature boost with increasing values of thermal radiation, but thin-film velocity decreases with increasing values of chemical reaction and magnetic field. The current investigation is to enhance heat and mass transfer in the design of mechanical systems involving the thin film flow of second-grade fluids over an inclined flat plate after applying thermal radiation and chemical reaction.","PeriodicalId":14766,"journal":{"name":"J.

In this article, we have proposed and analyzed a mathematical model in order to study the effect of health precautions and treatment for a disease transmitted by contact in a constant population. We determined the four equilibria of the system of ordinary differential equations representing the model and characterized their existence using exact methods of algebraic geometry and computer algebra. The model is studied using the stability theory for systems of differential equations and the basic reproduction number \u0000 \u0000 \u0000 \u0000 R\u0000 \u0000 \u0000 0\u0000 \u0000 \u0000 \u0000 . The stability of the equilibria is analyzed using the Lienard-Chipart criterion and Lyapunov functions. The asymptotic or global stability of endemic equilibria is established, and the disease-free equilibrium is globally asymptotically stable if \u0000 \u0000 \u0000 \u0000 R\u0000 \u0000 \u0000 0\u0000 \u0000 \u0000 <\u0000 1\u0000 \u0000 . Model simulation is done with Python software to study the effects of health precautions and treatment, and the results are analyzed. It is observed that if the rate of treatment and compliance with health precautions are high, the number of infections decreases in the classes of infectious and is canceled out over time. It is concluded that the high treatment rate accompanied by a suitable rate of compliance with health precautions allows for the control the disease.","PeriodicalId":14766,"journal":{"name":"J. Appl.

The vector population was also categorized as susceptible (C) and infected (D). We established that all model solutions are positive and bounded by relevant initial conditions. The existence of unique CLCuV free and endemic equilibrium points, as well as the basic reproduction number, which is computed using the next generation matrix approach, are investigated. The conditions for the local and global asymptotic stability of these equilibrium points are then established. When the basic reproduction number is less than one, the system has locally and globally asymptotically stable CLCuV free equilibrium point, but when the basic reproduction number is more than one, the system has locally and globally asymptotically stable endemic equilibrium point.

A three-state Markov chain was used to estimate the transition matrix, long-run probabilities, and mean recurrent times for stock price movements from one state to another. Generally, the results revealed that the long-run distribution of the stock prices showed that the constant state recorded the highest probabilities as compared to the point loss and point gain states. However, the results showed that the mean recurrent time to the point gain state ranges from three weeks to thirty-five weeks approximately. Finally, Standard Chartered Bank, GCB, Ecobank, and Cal Bank emerged as the top best performing stocks with respect to the mean recurrent times and steady-state distribution, and therefore, these equities should be considered when constructing asset portfolios for higher returns.","PeriodicalId":14766,"journal":{"name":"J.
