Sensitivity Equations for a Size-Structured Population Model
In this paper we consider the classical Sinko-Streifer size-structured population model and derive sensitivity partial differential equations for the sensitivities of solutions with respect to initial conditions, growth rate, mortality rate and fecundity rate. Sample numerical results to illustrate use of these equations are also presented.

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...
متن کاملOn the Inverse Problem for a Size-Structured Population Model
We consider a size-structured model for cell division and address the question of determining the division (birth) rate from the measured stable size distribution of the population. We formulate such question as an inverse problem for an integro-differential equation posed on the half line. We develop firstly a regular dependency theory for the solution in terms of the coefficients and, secondl...
متن کاملOn periodic cohort solutions of a size-structured population model
We consider a size-structured population model with discontinuous reproduction and feedback through the environmental variable \substrate". The model admits solutions with nitely many cohorts and in that case the problem is described by a system of ODEs involving a bifurcation parameter. Existence of nontrivial periodic n-cohort solutions is investigated. Moreover, we discuss the question wheth...
