This modelling technique is based on the systems analysis and is used to get a quantitative rather than qualitative understanding of systems dynamics and explore the mechanisms of action of a drug. However, there is no well-defined methodology for the QSP model development, which significantly complicates the practical application of these models. In the current work, we overview the existing mathematical models of antidiabetic therapies and propose a modelling method, which overcomes common limitations and is able to produce a physiologically based mechanistic model describing gliflozin action in type 2 diabetes mellitus. From the practical standpoint, sensitivity analysis preformed in this work helped to reveal subpopulation of patients with better response to gliflozin therapy.","PeriodicalId":49585,"journal":{"name":"Russian Journal of Numerical Analysis and Mathematical Modelling","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2022-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45577366","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}

For this problem, a linear regularized mesh scheme is constructed and investigated. A sufficient condition is derived for the regularization parameter that ensures the so-called local correctness of the mesh scheme. On the basis of correctness and approximation estimates for model problems with time-fractional Caputo or Caputo–Fabrizio derivatives, accuracy estimates are given in terms of mesh and regularization parameters under the assumption of the existence of a smooth solution to the differential problem. The presented results of the numerical experiments confirm the obtained asymptotic accuracy estimates.","PeriodicalId":49585,"journal":{"name":"Russian Journal of Numerical Analysis and Mathematical Modelling","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2022-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46827088","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 real radiation models, for this purpose, the numerical-statistical ‘majorant cross-section method’ (MCM, delta-Woodcock tracking) is used based on the alignment of the optical density field by adding an artificial ‘delta scattering’ event. However, the computation cost of the corresponding unbiased estimate of the averaged problem solution infinitely increases as the correlation scale (correlation radius L) of standard mosaic models for a random medium density decreases. Previously, we constructed the MCM randomization providing asymptotically (for L → 0) unbiased estimates of the required functionals, in which the value of the physical attenuation coefficient is randomly chosen at the end of the particle free path l under condition l > L. Otherwise the value of the physical attenuation coefficient is the same as at the starting point of the particle (CR algorithm). In a more accurate functional correlative randomized algorithm (FCR algorithm), the coefficient remains the same with a probability determined by the correlation function. These correlative randomized algorithms were implemented for a mixture of homogeneous substance (water) and a Poisson ensemble of ‘empty’ balls. In the present paper, we construct correlative randomized algorithms for problems related to transfer through a ‘thick’ layer containing a water and a Poisson ensemble of ‘empty’ layers. A detailed comparative analysis of the results obtained by exact direct simulation (MCM) and approximate algorithms (CR, FCR) for the problems of gamma radiation transfer through a ‘thick’ water layer containing a Poisson ensemble of ‘empty’ layers or balls is presented.","PeriodicalId":49585,"journal":{"name":"Russian Journal of Numerical Analysis and Mathematical Modelling","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2022-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45510400","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}
