Net reproduction functions for nonlinear structured population models
Our goal in this note is to present a general approach to define the net reproduction function/functional for a large class of nonlinear physiologically structured population models. In particular, we are going to show that this can be achieved in a natural way by reformulating a general nonlinear problem as a family of linear problems; each of the linear problems describing the evolution of th...
متن کاملA Note on the Convergence of the Homotopy Analysis Method for Nonlinear Age-Structured Population Models
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 کاملNonlinear Size - Structured Population Models A
In this dissertation, some size-structured population models are studied.In Chapter 1, a quasilinear size-structured model that describes the dynamics of apopulation with n competing ecotypes is studied. Under the assumption that the vitalrates of each subpopulation depend on the total population due to competition, theconditions on the individual rates which guarantee compe...
متن کاملVariational iteration method for nonlinear age-structured population models
In this paper, we apply He’s variational iteration method (VIM) coupled with an auxiliary parameter which proves very effective to control the convergence region of an approximate solution. Moreover, a convenient way is considered for choosing a suitable auxiliary parameter via a residual function. The proposed algorithm is tested on some nonlinear age-structured population models, and numerica...
متن کاملGeneralized sensitivity functions for size-structured population models
Abstract. Size-structured population models provide a popular means to mathematically describe phenomena such as bacterial aggregation, schooling fish, and planetesimal evolution. For parameter estimation, generalized sensitivity functions (GSFs) provide a tool that quantifies the impact of data from specific regions of the experimental domain. These functions help identify the most relevant da...
