A impulsive infective transmission SI model for pest control

In this paper, we propose a model with impulsive control of epidemics for pest management. By using Floquet's theorem, small‐amplitude perturbation skills and comparison theorem, we show that there exists a globally asymptotically stable susceptible pest‐eradication periodic solution when the release amount of infective pests is larger than some critical value. However, when the amount of infective pests released is less than this critical value, the system is shown to be permanent, which implies that the trivial periodic susceptible pest‐eradication solution loses its stability. Further, the existence of a positive periodic endemic solution and other rich dynamics are also studied by numerical simulation. Therefore, we can use the amount of release of infective pests to control susceptible pests at desirable low levels. Copyright © 2007 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Dynamic analysis of a pest management SEI model with saturation incidence concerning impulsive control strategy

According to biological strategy for pest control, we investigate the dynamic behavior of a pest management SEI model with saturation incidence concerning impulsive control strategy-periodic releasing infected pests at fixed times. We prove that all solutions of the system are uniformly ultimately bounded and there exists a globally asymptotically stable pest-eradication periodic solution when the impulsive period is less than some critical value. When the impulsive period is larger than some critical value, the stability of the pest-eradication periodic solution is lost; the system is uniformly permanent. Thus, we can use the stability of the positive periodic solution and its period to control insect pests at acceptably low levels. Numerical results show that the system we consider can take on various kinds of periodic fluctuations and several types of attractor coexistence and is dominated by period-doubling cascade, symmetry-breaking pitchfork bifurcation, quasi-periodic oscillate, chaos, and non-unique dynamics.     

The onset of positive periodic solutions for a biochemical pest management model

In this paper, the bifurcation of nontrivial periodic solutions for an impulsively perturbed system of ordinary differential equations which models an integrated pest management strategy is studied by means of a fixed point approach. A biological control, consisting in the periodic release of infective pests, and a chemical control, consisting in pesticide spraying, are employed to maintain susceptible pests below an acceptable level. It is assumed that the biological and chemical control act with the same periodicity, but not in the same time. It is then shown that if the constant amount of infective pests released each time reaches a certain threshold value, then the trivial susceptible pest-eradication periodic solution loses its stability, which is transferred to a newly emerging nontrivial periodic solution.     

Modelling and analysis of an impulsive SI model with Monod-Haldane functional response

An impulsive SI model with Monod-Haldane functional response for pest control is proposed and investigated. First, we have proved that there exists an asymptotically stable pest-eradication periodic solution when the impulsive period is less than some critical value. Otherwise, the above system can be permanent. Then, influences of impulsive perturbation including impulse period, the time of spraying pesticide and the quantity of releasing infective pests on the above system have been studied. Moreover, numerical simulations show that the system has rich dynamical behaviors. Finally, it is concluded that the approach of combining impulsive infective releasing with impulsive pesticide spraying is more effective than the classical one if the chemical control is adopted rationally.     

An impulsively controlled predator–pest model with disease in the pest

In this paper, we consider an integrated pest management model with disease in the pest and a stage structure for its natural predator, which is subject to impulsive and periodic controls. A nonlinear incidence rate expressed in an abstract form, is used to describe the propagation of the disease, which is spread through the periodic release of infective pests, the functional response of the mature predator also being given in an abstract, unspecified form. Sufficient conditions for the local and global stability of the susceptible pest-eradication periodic solution are found by means of Floquet theory and comparison methods, the permanence of the system also being discussed. These stability conditions are shown to be biologically significant, being reformulated as balance conditions for the susceptible pest class.

The dynamics of an epidemic model for pest control with impulsive effect

In pest control, there are only a few papers on mathematical models of the dynamics of microbial diseases. In this paper a model concerning biologically-based impulsive control strategy for pest control is formulated and analyzed. The paper shows that there exists a globally stable susceptible pest eradication periodic solution when the impulsive period is less than some critical value. Further, the conditions for the permanence of the system are given. In addition, there exists a unique positive periodic solution via bifurcation theory, which implies both the susceptible pest and the infective pest populations oscillate with a positive amplitude. In this case, the susceptible pest population is infected to the maximum extent while the infective pest population has little effect on the crops. When the unique positive periodic solution loses its stability, numerical simulation shows there is a characteristic sequence of bifurcations, leading to a chaotic dynamic, which implies that this model has more complex dynamics, including period-doubling bifurcation, chaos and strange attractors.

Dynamics of an impulsive control system which prey species share a common predator

In an ecosystem multiple prey species often share a common predator and the interactions between the preys are neutral. In view of these facts and based on a multiple species prey–predator system with Holling IV and II functional responses, an impulsive differential equation to model the process of periodically releasing natural enemies and spraying pesticides at different fixed times for pest control is proposed and investigated. It is proved that there exists a locally asymptotically stable pest-eradication periodic solution under the assumption that the impulsive period is less than some critical value (or the release amount of the predator is greater than another critical value). Permanence conditions are established when the impulsive period is greater than another critical value (or the release amount of the predator is less than some critical value). Numerical results show that the system we consider has more complex dynamics including period solution, quasi-periodic oscillation, chaos, intermittency and crises.     

An impulsive predator–prey model with disease in the prey for integrated pest management

In this paper, an impulsive predator–prey model with disease in the prey is investigated for the purpose of integrated pest management. In the first part of the main results, we get the sufficient condition for the global stability of the susceptible pest-eradication periodic solution. This means if the release amount of infective prey and predator satisfy the condition, then the pest will be doomed. In the second part of the main results, we also get the sufficient condition for the permanence of the system. This means if the release amount of infective prey and predator satisfy the condition, then the prey and the predator will coexist. In the last section, we interpret our mathematical results. We also point out some possible future work.     

Modelling approach for biological control of insect pest by releasing infected pest

Models of biological control have a long history of theoretical development that have focused on the interactions between a predator and a prey. Here we have extended the classical epidemic model to include a continuous and impulsive pest control strategies by releasing the infected pests bred in laboratory. For the continuous model, the results imply that the susceptible pest goes to extinct if the threshold condition R₀ < 1. While R₀ > 1, the positive equilibrium of continuous model is globally asymptotically stable. Similarly, the threshold condition which guarantees the global stability of the susceptible pest-eradication periodic solution is obtained for the model with impulsive control strategy. Consequently, based on the results obtained in this paper, the control strategies which maintain the pests below an acceptably low level are discussed by controlling the release rate and impulsive period. Finally, the biological implications of the results and the efficiency of two control strategies are also discussed.     

The dynamics of pest control pollution model with age structure and time delay

In this paper, by using pollution model and impulsive delay differential equation, we investigate the dynamics of a pest control model with age structure for pest by introducing a constant periodic pesticide input and releasing natural enemies at different fixed moment. We assume only the pests are affected by pesticide. We show that there exists a global attractive pest-extinction periodic solution when the periodic natural enemies release amount μ₁ and pesticide input amount μ₂ are larger than some critical value. Further, the condition for the permanence of the system is also given. By numerical analyses, we also show that constant maturation time delay, pulse pesticide input and pulse releasing of the natural enemies can bring obvious effects on the dynamics of system. We believe that the results will provide reliable tactic basis for the practical pest management.

Analysis of a predator–prey model with Holling II functional response concerning impulsive control strategy

According to biological and chemical control strategy for pest control, we investigate the dynamic behavior of a Holling II functional response predator–prey system concerning impulsive control strategy-periodic releasing natural enemies and spraying pesticide at different fixed times. By using Floquet theorem and small amplitude perturbation method, we prove that there exists a stable pest-eradication periodic solution when the impulsive period is less than some critical value. Further, the condition for the permanence of the system is also given. Numerical results show that the system we consider can take on various kinds of periodic fluctuations and several types of attractor coexistence and is dominated by periodic, quasiperiodic and chaotic solutions, which implies that the presence of pulses makes the dynamic behavior more complex. Finally, we conclude that our impulsive control strategy is more effective than the classical one if we take chemical control efficiently.     

Impulsive control strategy of a pest management SI model with nonlinear incidence rate

In this work, we consider a pest management SI model with impulsive release of infective pests and spraying pesticides. We prove that all solutions of the investigated system are uniformly ultimately bounded and the pest-extinction periodic solution is globally asymptotically stable when some condition is satisfied. We also obtain the permanent condition of the system. It is concluded that the approach of combining impulsive release of infective pests with impulsive spraying pesticides provides reliable tactic basis for the practical pest management.

Complex Dynamics of an Impulsive Control System in which Predator Species Share a Common Prey

In an ecosystem, multiple predator species often share a common prey and the interactions between the predators are neutral. In view of this fact, we propose a three-species prey-predator system with the functional responses and impulsive controls to model the process of pest management. It is proved that the system has a locally stable pest-eradication periodic solution under the assumption that the impulsive period is less than some critical value. In particular, two single control strategies (biological control alone or chemical control alone) are proposed. Finally, we compare three pest control strategies and find that if we choose narrow-spectrum pesticides that are targeted to a specific pest’s life cycle to kill the pest, then the combined strategy is preferable. Numerical results show that our system has complex dynamics including period-doubling bifurcation, quasi-periodic oscillation, chaos, intermittency and crises.
