The key idea is to choose multi-quadric (MQ) RBF and trigonometric function to construct numerical flux and smoothness indicator respectively. First, we modify the RBF interpolation making it into the WENO reconstruction framework along with representing it by a perturbation of polynomial. The explicit form of disturbance term on each stencil is given. Through selecting the appropriate shape parameters of MQ RBF, the relevant WENO scheme achieves sixth-order accuracy than other well-known fifth-order WENO schemes under some conditions. Moreover, some differential operators based on trigonometric function space are employed to obtain new smoothness indicators that efficiently evaluates the sharp change of gradient on the candidate stencil. To highlight the effectiveness of the proposed WENO scheme, this new scheme is applied to several one and two-dimensional hyperbolic test problems, and compared with the existing schemes such as WENO-JS, WENO-M and WENO-Z. The numerical results show higher accuracy can be achieved in the smooth regions of the solutions, and no non-physical oscillations occur near the discontinuities, which verifies the higher resolution property and the better discontinuity-capturing ability of the improved scheme.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":55496,"journal":{"name":"Applied Mathematics and Computation","volume":"501 ","pages":"Article 129472"},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2025-04-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143843240","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A prominent example is the phenomenon where one species preys on the offspring of another. This paper introduces and analyzes a novel stage-structured competition model to explore this ecological dynamic. Focusing on juvenile and adult life stages, we integrate two competition forms: exploitative (through shared resource limitation) and interference (where adults consume rival juveniles). While exploitative and interference competition are well-studied individually, their interplay in stage-structured populations remains underexplored. Our analysis reveals critical thresholds for resource abundance that determine whether species coexist, one dominates, or both perish. Remarkably, when one species inherently excels at resource exploitation, it dominates regardless of the interference rate on its rival's juveniles. Furthermore, increasing resource productivity can induce Hopf bifurcations, leading to cyclic population dynamics—a finding with implications for managing ecosystems under environmental change. Numerical simulations are given to illustrate and validate our theoretical findings. These results advance our understanding of how life-stage-specific interactions mediate coexistence and resilience in ecological communities.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":55496,"journal":{"name":"Applied Mathematics and Computation","volume":"501 ","pages":"Article 129466"},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2025-04-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143823604","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Inclusions are characterized by a few parameters describing their material properties and shapes. We devise algorithms to estimate the most likely configurations by optimizing cost functionals with Bayesian regularizations and wave constraints. In particular, we design an automatic Levenberg-Marquardt-Fletcher type scheme based on the use of algorithmic differentiation and adaptive finite element meshes for time dependent wave equation constraints with changing inclusions. In synthetic tests with a single frequency, this scheme converges in few iterations for increasing noise levels. To attain a global view of other possible high probability configurations and asymmetry effects we resort to parallelizable affine invariant Markov Chain Monte Carlo methods, at the cost of solving a few million wave problems. This forces the use of prefixed meshes.
