چکیده

We study a single species in a chemostat, limited by two nutrients, and separate nutrient uptake from growth. For a broad class of uptake and growth functions it is proved that a nontrivial equilibrium may exist. Moreover, if it exists it is unique and globally stable, generalizing a result in [15].

A numerical method for discrete fractional--order chemostat model derived from nonstandard numerical scheme

‎In this paper‎, ‎the fractional--order form of three dimensional chemostat model with variable yields is introduced‎. ‎The stability analysis of this fractional system is discussed in detail‎. ‎In order to study the dynamic behaviours of the mentioned fractional system‎, ‎the well known nonstandard (NSFD) scheme is implemented‎. ‎The proposed NSFD scheme is compared with the forward Euler and ...

Stoichiometry and food-chain dynamics.

Traditional models of chemostat systems looking at interactions between predator, prey and nutrients have used only a single currency, such as energy or nitrogen. In reality, growth of autotrophs and heterotrophs may be limited by various elements, e.g. carbon, nitrogen, phosphorous or iron. In this study we develop a dynamic energy budget model chemostat which has both carbon and nitrogen as c...

The Buffered Chemostat with Non-Monotonic Response Functions

We show how a particular spatial structure with a buffer globally stabilizes the chemostat dynamics with non-monotonic response function, while this is not possible with single, serial or parallel chemostats of the same total volume and input flow. We give a characterization of the set of such configurations that satisfy this property, as well as the configuration that ensures the best nutrient...

A Discrete-delayed Model with Plasmid-bearing, Plasmid-free Competition in a Chemostat

A discrete-delayed model of plasmid-bearing, plasmid-free organisms competing for a single-limited nutrient in a chemostat is established. Rigorous mathematical analysis of the asymptotic behavior of this model is presented. An interesting method to analyze the local stability of interior equilibrium is developed. The argument is also applicable to a model of plasmidbearing, plasmid-free organi...

Optimization-based model of multinutrient uptake kinetics

We present a new, optimization-based model for uptake kinetics of multiple nutrients, which has the same number of parameters (two for each nutrient) as the Michaelis–Menten model. We fit this model and an existing inhibition-based model to data from chemostat experiments at various flow rates (under extreme limitation by both nitrogen [N] and phosphorus [P]) and compared these models and the M...
