Mathematical modeling of electromagnetic wave propagation in heterogeneous lossy coaxial cables with variable cross section

In this work, we focus on the time-domain simulation of the propagation of electromagnetic waves in non-homogeneous lossy coaxial cables. The full 3D Maxwell equations, that described the propagation of current and electric potential in such cables, are classically not tackled directly, but instead a 1D scalar model known as the telegraphist's model is used. We aim at justifying, by means of asymptotic analysis, a time-domain “homogenized” telegraphist's model. This model, which includes a nonlocal in time operator, is obtained via asymptotic analysis, for a lossy coaxial cable whose cross section is not homogeneous.     

A confinement problem for a linearly elastic Koiter's shell

In this Note, we propose a natural two-dimensional model of “Koiter's type” for a general linearly elastic shell confined in a half space. This model is governed by a set of variational inequalities posed over a non-empty closed and convex subset of the function space used for modeling the corresponding “unconstrained” Koiter's model. To study the limit behavior of the proposed model as the thickness of the shell, regarded as a small parameter, approaches zero, we perform a rigorous asymptotic analysis, distinguishing the cases where the shell is either an elliptic membrane shell, a generalized membrane shell of the first kind, or a flexural shell. Moreover, in the case where the shell is an elliptic membrane shell, we show that the limit model obtained via the asymptotic analysis of our proposed two-dimensional Koiter's model coincides with the limit model obtained via a rigorous asymptotic analysis of the corresponding three-dimensional “constrained” model.

Dynamical analysis of a delayed ratio-dependent Holling-Tanner predator-prey model

In this paper, a delayed Holling-Tanner predator-prey model with ratio-dependent functional response is considered. It is proved that the model system is permanent under certain conditions. The local asymptotic stability and the Hopf-bifurcation results are discussed. Qualitative behaviour of the singularity (0,0) is explored by using a blow up transformation. Global asymptotic stability analysis of the positive equilibrium is carried out. Numerical simulations are presented for the support of our analytical findings.     

Asymptotic behavior of the loss probability for an M/G/1/N queue with vacations

In this paper, asymptotic properties of the loss probability are considered for an M/G/1/N queue with server vacations and exhaustive service discipline, denoted by an M/G/1/N-(V, E)-queue. Exact asymptotic rates of the loss probability are obtained for the cases in which the traffic intensity is smaller than, equal to and greater than one, respectively. When the vacation time is zero, the model considered degenerates to the standard M/G/1/N queue. For this standard queueing model, our analysis provides new or extended asymptotic results for the loss probability. In terms of the duality relationship between the M/G/1/N and GI/M/1/N queues, we also provide asymptotic properties for the standard GI/M/1/N model.     

Self-adjoint Extensions for the Neumann Laplacian and Applications

A new technique is proposed for the analysis of shape optimization problems. The technique uses the asymptotic analysis of boundary value problems in singularly perturbed geometrical domains. The asymptotics of solutions are derived in the framework of compound and matched asymptotics expansions. The analysis involves the so-called interior topology variations. The asymptotic expansions are derived for a model problem, however the technique applies to general elliptic boundary value problems. The self-adjoint extensions of elliptic operators and the weighted spaces with detached asymptotics are exploited for the modelling of problems with small defects in geometrical domains, The error estimates for proposed approximations of shape functionals are provided.     

Asymptotic behavior of Morris–Lecar system

In this paper, the asymptotic behavior of the Morris–Lecar model is studied. Firstly, the phase plane characteristic of the model is investigated, secondly, in terms of the concepts of slow manifold and fast foliation, the asymptotic structure of the Morris–Lecar model is discussed based on Tikhonov's theorem. Finally, computation and analysis results show that the spiking of action potential of Morris–Lecar neuron actually has the jump onset–jump return structure.

Global stability of Gompertz model of three competing populations

The model of three competitive populations with Gompertz growth is studied. The periodic solutions are ruled out by generalized Dulac criteria. On the basis of the analysis, we obtain conditions that ensure the asymptotic behavior of the model is simple.     

Asymptotic Behavior of Micropolar Fluid Flow Through a Curved Pipe

We study the stationary motion of a micropolar fluid in a thin (or long) curved pipe via rigorous asymptotic analysis. An asymptotic solution is found, showing explicitly the effects of pipe’s distortion and microstructure on the effective behavior of the flow. We justify the obtained model by proving the corresponding error estimate.
