A Numerical Method for Spatial Diffusion in Age-Structured Populations
We propose a method to approximate numerically the diffusion of an age-structured population in a spatial environment. We integrate separately the age and time variables by finite differences and we discretize the space variable by finite elements. The method is implicit in time and, inside each time step, implicit in age. We provide stability and convergence results and we illustrate our appro...
متن کاملAdaptive observer for age-structured population with spatial diffusion
We investigate the inverse problem of simultaneously estimating the state and the spatial diffusion coefficient for an age-structured population model. The time evolution of the population is supposed to be known on a subdomain in space and age. We generalize to the infinite dimensional setting an adaptive observer originally proposed for finite dimensional systems.
متن کاملNumerical Analysis of the Age-Sex-Structured Population Dynamics Taking into Account Spatial Diffusion
Abstract. We present results of the numerical investigation of the homogenous Dirichlet and Neumann problems to an age-sex-structured population dynamics deterministic model taking into account random mating, female’s pregnancy, and spatial diffusion. We prove the existence of separable solutions to the non-dispersing population model and, by using the numerical experiment, corroborate their lo...
متن کاملA numerical treatment of a reaction-diffusion model of spatial pattern in the embryo
In this work the mathematical model of a spatial pattern in chemical and biological systems is investigated numerically. The proposed model considered as a nonlinear reaction-diffusion equation. A computational approach based on finite difference and RBF-collocation methods is conducted to solve the equation with respect to the appropriate initial and boundary conditions. The ability and robust...
