Generalist predators implicitly exploiting multiple food resources reduce predation pressure on their focal prey species that causes it to become more stable compared to a prey-predator system with specialist predator. In the temporal system, bistability and tristability are observed along with various global and local bifurcations. Existence of homogeneous and heterogeneous positive steady state solutions are shown to exist for suitable ranges of parameter values in the spatiotemporal diffusive system. Weakly nonlinear analysis using multi-scale perturbation technique is employed to derive amplitude equation for the stationary patterns near the Turing bifurcation threshold. The analytical results of the amplitude equations are validated using numerical simulations. We also identify bifurcation of multiple stable stationary patch solutions as well as dynamic pattern solution for parameter values in the Turing and Turing-Hopf regions.","PeriodicalId":18285,"journal":{"name":"Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2022-07-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48805153","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 present study considers an optimal control problem for the semilinear reaction-diffusion model of bacterial quorum sensing under the impact of external enzymes. Estimates of the solution of the controlled system are obtained, on the basis of which the solvability of the extremal problem is proved and the necessary optimality conditions of the first-order are derived. A numerical algorithm to find a solution of the optimal control problem is constructed and implemented. The conducted numerical experiments demonstrate an opportunity to build an effective strategy of the enzymes impact for treatment.","PeriodicalId":18285,"journal":{"name":"Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2022-07-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47182272","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}

To imitate male semen with self-propulsive spermatozoa, a hyperbolic tangent fluid is used as the base liquid. Swimming sperms move inside a ciliated cervical canal and peristalsis occurs due to the ciliated walls. The perturbation method is used to solve the controlling partial differential set of equations analytically. Due to self-propulsion of swimmers and long wavelength assumption, a creeping flow protocol is used throughout the stream. The stream pattern, velocity distribution, and pressure gradient (above and below the swimming sheet) solutions are produced and displayed with the relevant parameters. The outcomes of this manuscript show that the rheological parameters of hyperbolic tangent fluid are more appropriate to simulate and discuss the motility of cervical fluid. Moreover, the motility of mucus velocity is more applicable for small values of power law index n at the upper swimming sheet of propulsive spermatozoa. In addition, the mucus velocity increases in both region (upper and lower region of swimming sheet) with an increase of the electroosmotic parameter and Helmholtz-Smoluchowski velocity .","PeriodicalId":18285,"journal":{"name":"Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2022-07-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44625749","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}

We prove that the delayed cholera model is biologically meaningful and analyze the local asymptotic stability of the equilibrium points for positive time delays. An optimal control problem is proposed and analyzed, where the goal is to obtain optimal treatment strategies, through quarantine, that minimize the number of infective individuals and the bacterial concentration, as well as treatment costs. Necessary optimality conditions are applied to the delayed optimal control problem, with a $L^1$ type cost functional. We show that the delayed cholera model fits better the cholera outbreak that occurred in the Department of Artibonite -- Haiti, from 1 November 2010 to 1 May 2011, than the non delayed model. Considering the data of the cholera outbreak in Haiti, we solve numerically the delayed optimal control problem and propose solutions for the outbreak control and eradication.","PeriodicalId":18285,"journal":{"name":"Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2022-06-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44850207","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}

In recent years, this strategy has been used to control mosquito populations, in order to limit the spread of the diseases they transmit. In this paper, we consider a system of reaction-diffusion equations to model the mosquito population and study the effect of the release of sterile mosquito males. Then we propose to analyze the release in a limited area inside a wider area containing natural mosquito population. We are interested in protecting a mosquito free region from invasion by mosquitoes from an exterior domain by controlling the population in a release band at the border between the two regions: we construct a barrier blocking the invasion of mosquitoes from the exterior. We adapt the geometric method of Lewis and Keener in this framework and extend their main result to find relations on the size of the release region and the density of the released sterile males that allow us to block the invasion. Numerical simulations are also performed to illustrate our results.","PeriodicalId":18285,"journal":{"name":"Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2022-06-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47675404","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}
