We derive an alternative expression for a delayed logistic equation, assuming that the rate of change of the population depends on three components: growth, death, and intraspecific competition, with the delay in the growth component. In our formulation, we incorporate the delay in the growth term in a manner consistent with the rate of instantaneous decline in the population given by the model...

In this paper, we investigate the problem of bifurcation control for a delayed logistic growth model. By choosing the timedelay as the bifurcation parameter, we present a Proportional - Derivative (PD) Controller to control Hopf bifurcation. We show that the onset of Hopf bifurcation can be delayed or advanced via a PD Controller by setting proper controlling parameter. Under consideration mode...

this study was carried out to evaluate the ekiti state social security scheme (essss) in nigeria. specifically, the study estimated the food security status of the beneficiaries and non beneficiaries of the scheme, assessed the effect of the social security scheme on households’ food security status, and identified the constraints to the implementation of the scheme in the state. a three stage ...

wild goat (capra aegagrus) is one of the most prominent mountain mammals dispersed in many habitats in iran. however, few studies on the relationship between this species and its habitat have been conducted. this species is recognized as one of the main food source for highly endangered species such as cheetah and leopard. in this study which lasted from fall 2009 through summer 2011, seasonal ...

The search for an adequate avalanche RPC working model evidenced that the simple exponential growth can describe the electron multiplication phenomena in the gas with acceptable accuracy until the external electric field is not perturbed by the growing avalanche. We present here a model in which the saturated growth induced by the space charge effects is explained in a natural way by a constant...

The aim of this study was to determine the optimal cutting cycle in an uneven-aged beech forest in the North of Iran. First of all, a logistic growth model was determined for an uneven aged forest. Then, the stumpage price was predicted via an autoregressive model. The average stumpage price of beech was derived from actual timber, round wood, fire and pulpwood prices at road side minus the var...
