A Fourth-order Method for Numerical Integration of Age- and Size-structured Population Models
In many applications of ageand size-structured population models, there is an interest in obtaining good approximations of total population numbers rather than of their densities. Therefore, it is reasonable in such cases to solve numerically not the PDE model equations themselves, but rather their integral equivalents. For this purpose quadrature formulae are used in place of the integrals. Si...

In this paper, a theorem is proved which presents the series solution obtained from the homotopy analysis method is convergent to the exact solution of nonlinear age-structured population models.
متن کاملA Numerical Method for Nonlinear Age-Structured Population Models with Finite Maximum Age
We propose a new numerical method for the approximation of solutions to a nonautonomous form of the classical Gurtin-Mac Camy population model with a mortality rate that is the sum of an intrinsic age-dependent rate that becomes unbounded as the age approaches its maximum value, plus a non-local, non-autonomous, bounded rate that depends on some weighted population size. We prove that our new q...
متن کاملSecond-order numerical integration of a size-structured cell population model with equal fission
In this work we present a second-order numerical method, based on the integration along the characteristic curves, for the approximation of the solution to a population model describing the evolution of a size-structured cell population with equal fission. This method is used to approximate the stable size distribution of the model.
