The geometry of a channel having multiple stenoses with an asymmetrical axial axis and a symmetrical radial axis can be visualized by applying a suitable mathematical expression. The geometry of the chosen model considers the height and shape of stenoses. The modification in shape parameter is used to capture variations in the shape of the stenoses in the artery. The blood is supposed to be isochoric (incompressible), while its rheological behavior is characterized by Williamson’s fluid model. The transfer of momentum is analyzed using the equation of motion in cooperation with the continuity equation. In addition, the equations of heat conduction and diffusion are utilized, respectively, to illustrate the distributions of heat and mass. Simplified forms of momentum, mass, and heat transport equations are achieved by incorporating dimensionless quantities and moderate stenosis conditions. A well-known explicit finite difference approach is utilized to solve the emergent non-linear system of governing equations numerically. The influence of different evolving parameters on the flow field along with mass and heat distributions is illustrated through various plots.","PeriodicalId":18285,"journal":{"name":"Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2023-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46266865","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Nguyen, Alexis L'eculier","doi":"10.1051/mmnp/2023018","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1051/mmnp/2023018","url":null,"abstract":"In this paper, we introduce a control strategy for applying the Sterile Insect Technique (SIT) to eliminate the population of Aedes mosquitoes which are vectors of various deadly diseases like dengue, zika, chikungunya... in a wide area. We use a system of reaction-diffusion equations to model the mosquito population and study the effect of releasing sterile males. Without any human intervention, and due to the so-called hair-trigger effect, the introduction of only a few individuals (eggs or fertilized females) can lead to the invasion of mosquitoes in the whole region after some time. To avoid this phenomenon, our strategy is to keep releasing a small number of sterile males in the treated zone and move this release forward with a negative forcing speed c to push back the invasive front of wild mosquitoes. By using traveling wave analysis, we show in the present paper that the strategy succeeds in repulsing the population while consuming a finite amount of mosquitoes in any finite time interval even though we treat a moving half-space. Moreover, we succeed in constructing a 'forced' traveling wave for our system moving at the same speed as the releases. We also provide some numerical illustrations for our results.","PeriodicalId":18285,"journal":{"name":"Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2023-06-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47032317","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The Brinkman term differs from zero only in small balls near the ends of the tubes. The boundary conditions are: given pressure at the inflow and outflow of the tube structure and the no slip boundary condition on the lateral boundary. The complete asymptotic expansion of the problem is constructed. The error estimates are proved. The method of partial asymptotic dimension reduction is introduced for the Stokes-Brinkman equations and justified by an error estimate. This method approximates the main problem by a hybrid dimension problem for the Stokes-Brinkman equations in a reduced domain. Asymptotic analysis is applied to determine the permeability of a tissue with a roll of blood vessels.","PeriodicalId":18285,"journal":{"name":"Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2023-05-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47574423","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Developing new approaches that help control the spread of infectious diseases is a critical issue for public health. Such approaches must consider the available resources and capacity of the healthcare system. In this paper, we present a new mathematical approach to controlling an epidemic model by investigating the optimal control that aims to bring the output of the epidemic to target a desired disease output yd = (yid)i∈{0,...,N}. First, we use the state-space technique to transfer the trajectory controllability to optimal control with constraints on the final state. Then, we use the fixed point theorems to determine the set of admissible controls and solve the output trajectory controllability problem. Finally, we apply our method to the model of a measles epidemic, and we give a numerical simulation to illustrate the findings of our approach.\u0000Mathematics Subject Classification. — Please, give AMS classification codes —.","PeriodicalId":18285,"journal":{"name":"Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2023-04-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43927263","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A piece of vulnerable plaque can break off and be carried by the bloodstream until it gets stuck; and plaque that narrows an artery may lead to a thrombus that sticks to the blood vessel's inner wall. The purpose of the present article is to compare effects across different atheromatous plaque material assumptions on hemodynamics and biomechanics within a partly patient-specific computational domain representing an atherosclerotic artery. A full scale 3D FSI numerical model is implemented and different material hyperelastic assumptions are considered for comparison purposes. The 3D realistic geometry is reconstructed from a medical image. This technique may be useful, specially with the recent advances in computer-aided design (CAD), medical imaging, and 3D printing technologies that have provided a rapid and cost efficient method to generate arterial stenotic biomodels, making in vitro studies a valuable and powerful tool. To understand our results, hemodynamic parameters and structural stress analysis were performed. The results are consistent with previous findings.","PeriodicalId":18285,"journal":{"name":"Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2023-03-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44575919","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
