چکیده

Food scientists at the U.S. Army’s Natick Solider Center have developed a model for the lifecyle of the bacteria Staphylococcus aureus in intermediate moisture bread. In this article, we study this model using dynamical systems and Lie symmetry methods. We calculate center manifolds and Lie symmetries for different cases of parameter values and compare our results to those of the food scientists.

A quasi-chemical model for the growth and death of microorganisms in foods by non-thermal and high-pressure processing.

Predictive microbial models generally rely on the growth of bacteria in laboratory broth to approximate the microbial growth kinetics expected to take place in actual foods under identical environmental conditions. Sigmoidal functions such as the Gompertz or logistics equation accurately model the typical microbial growth curve from the lag to the stationary phase and provide the mathematical b...

A Predictive Model for the Combustion Process in Dual Fuel Engines at Part Loads Using a Quasi Dimensional Multi Zone Model and Detailed Chemical Kinetics Mechanism

This work is carried out to investigate combustion characteristics of a dual fuel (diesel-gas) engine at part loads, using a quasi-dimensional multi zone combustion model (MZCM) for the combustion of diesel fuel and a single zone model with detailed chemical kinetics for the combustion of natural gas fuel. Chemical kinetic mechanisms consist of 184 reactions with 50 species. This combustion mod...

Comparison of Invariant Manifolds for Model Reduction in Chemical Kinetics

A modern approach to model reduction in chemical kinetics is often based on the notion of slow invariant manifold. The goal of this paper is to give a comparison of various methods of construction of slow invariant manifolds using a simple Michaelis-Menten catalytic reaction. We explore a recently introduced Method of Invariant Grids (MIG) for iteratively solving the invariance equation. Variou...

Lie symmetry Analysis and Explicit Exact Dolutions of the Time Fractional Drinfeld-Sokolov-Wilson (DSW) System

In this study coupled system of nonlinear time fractional Drinfeld-Sokolov-Wilson equations, which describes the propagation of anomalous shallow water waves is investigated. The Lie symmetry analysis is performed on the model. Employing the suitable similarity transformations, the governing model is similarity reduced to a system of nonlinear ordinary differential equations with Erdelyi-Kober ...

Einstein structures on four-dimensional nutral Lie groups

When Einstein was thinking about the theory of general relativity based on the elimination of especial relativity constraints (especially the geometric relationship of space and time), he understood the first limitation of especial relativity is ignoring changes over time. Because in especial relativity, only the curvature of the space was considered. Therefore, tensor calculations should be to...
