A coherent dynamic conflict model is developed from basic principles. The governing equations have a striking resemblance to the continuity equation in fluid dynamics with an additional term for the response to pressure by the opponent. The salient feature of the model is a moving confrontation line which is an excellent indicator for the evolution of conflict. The developed model also permits investigation of the necessary minimum involvement of a third party actor such as an international organization to establish a status quo between the actors. The model is demonstrated on the Russian–Chechen conflict and the Bosnian war. 相似文献

A coherent dynamic combat model is developed from basic principles. The governing set of equations has a striking resemblance to the continuity equation in fluid dynamics with an additional term for the losses of combat units. The salient features of the model are a moving battle front, the replenishment of losses, and the withdrawal of combat units while others are still engaged. A basic example shows that the often used force ratio of three can produce a frontline movement up to 90% of the speed of the attacker. Another example simulates a well documented battle from the American Civil War. It is shown that terrain influences and the absence of reconnaissance had a large adverse effect on the outcome of the battle for the Confederate forces. 相似文献

An original discrete lake model is presented. Its state variables are phytoplankton, zooplankton, dead organic material and minerals. It takes into account the carrying capacity of the environment for biological variables and the mineralization process. Simulations which study the influence of some parameters or some modifications of pollution inputs are presented to increase the usefulness of such a discrete model. 相似文献

The article deals with a stochastic economic order quantity (EOQ) model over a finite time horizon where uniform demand over the replenishment period is price dependent. The selling price is assumed to be a random variable that follows a probability density function. As demand is probabilistic, stock out situation may occur. Based on the partial backlogging and lost sale cases during stock out period, the author develops the criterion for the optimal solution for the replenishment size such that the integrated expected profit is maximized. Moreover, the article suggests a new function regarding price dependent demand. Finally, numerical examples and its sensitivity analysis of key parameters are given to illustrate the proposed model. 相似文献

In this work, we analyze a system of nonlinear difference equations describing community intervention in mosquito control. More specifically, we extend the model given in [M. Predescu, R. Levins, T. Awerbuch, Analysis of a nonlinear system for community intervention in mosquito control, Discrete Contin. Dyn. Syst. Ser. B 6 (3) (2006) 605–622] to allow for consciousness to be created in an ongoing way by educational efforts that are independent of the presence of mosquito breeding sites. In order to quantify the effect of random external events, such as weather or public concerns, we consider a stochastic version of the model. Numerical simulations show that the stochastic model is consistent with the deterministic one. 相似文献

A stochastic model for internal HIV dynamics 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
In this paper we analyse a stochastic model representing HIV internal virus dynamics. The stochasticity in the model is introduced by parameter perturbation which is a standard technique in stochastic population modelling. We show that the model established in this paper possesses non-negative solutions as this is essential in any population dynamics model. We also carry out analysis on the asymptotic behaviour of the model. We approximate one of the variables by a mean reverting process and find out the mean and variance of this process. Numerical simulations conclude the paper. 相似文献

In this paper, we analyze a stochastic model representing HIV internal virus dynamics. The stochasticity in the model is introduced by parameter perturbation which is a standard technique in stochastic population modeling. By analyzing the Lyapunov exponent, singular boundary and probability density, some new criteria ensuring stochastic stability, D-bifurcation and P-bifurcation for stochastic internal HIV model are obtained, respectively. Numerical simulation results are given to support the theoretical predictions. 相似文献

A nonlinear stochastic dynamical model on a typical HAB algae diatom and dianoflagellate densities was created and presented in this paper. Simplifying the model through a stochastic averaging method, we obtained a two-dimensional diffusion process of averaged amplitude and phase. The singular boundary theory of diffusion process and the invariant measure theory were applied in analyzing the bifurcation of stability and the Hopf bifurcation of the stochastic system. The critical value of the stochastic Hopf bifurcation parameter was obtained and the conclusion that the position of Hopf bifurcation drifting with the parameter increase is presented as a result. 相似文献

This paper studies the cost distribution characteristics in multi-stage supply chain networks. Based on the graphical evaluation and review technique, we propose a novel stochastic network mathematical model for cost distribution analysis in multi-stage supply chain networks. Further, to investigate the effects of cost components, including the procurement costs, inventory costs, shortage costs, production costs and transportation costs of supply chain members, on the total supply chain operation cost, we propose the concept of cost sensitivity and provide corresponding algorithms based on the proposed stochastic network model. Then the model is extended to analyze the cost performance of supply chain robustness under different order compensation ability scenarios and the corresponding algorithms are developed. Simulation experiment shows the effectiveness and flexibility of the proposed model, and also promotes a better understanding of the model approach and its managerial implications in cost management of supply chains. 相似文献

For the prevention and control of brucellosis, it is important to investigate the mechanism of brucellosis transmission. Based on the characteristics of the spread of brucellosis, a susceptible-exposed-infectious-brucella (SEIB) delay dynamic model is proposed with the general incidence, elimination rate and shedding rate of pathogen.
Under biologically motivated assumptions, it shows the uniqueness of the endemic equilibrium, and investigates the global asymptotically stability of the disease-free equilibrium and the endemic equilibrium. The results suggest that the global stability of equilibria depends entirely on the basic reproduction number $R_0$
and time delay is harmless for the stability of equilibria. Finally, some specific examples and numerical simulations are used to illustrate the utilization of research results and reveal the biological significance of hypothesis $(H_7)$, which implies that the dynamics of brucellosis transmission depend largely on the development of the prevention and control strategies. 相似文献

A discrete penalty method for the numerical study of the evolution equations for soft and undeformed magnetoelastic solids is proposed. Some results concerning the stability and the boundedness of the numerical solution are established. Since the aim of the article is also to show the numerical development of singularities (these are expected, due to the similarities with the evolution equations for liquid crystals), some numerical results on a specific test problem are reported and discussed. © 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

We propose a modified stochastic ruler method for finding a global optimal solution to a discrete optimization problem in which the objective function cannot be evaluated analytically but has to be estimated or measured. Our method generates a Markov chain sequence taking values in the feasible set of the underlying discrete optimization problem; it uses the number of visits this sequence makes to the different states to estimate the optimal solution. We show that our method is guaranteed to converge almost surely (a.s.) to the set of global optimal solutions. Then, we show how our method can be used for solving discrete optimization problems where the objective function values are estimated using either transient or steady-state simulation. Finally, we provide some numerical results to check the validity of our method and compare its performance with that of the original stochastic ruler method. 相似文献

A sales territory design problem faced by a manufacturing company that supplies products to a group of customers located in a service region is addressed in this paper. The planning process of designing the territories has the objective to minimizing the total dispersion of the customers without exceeding a limited budget assigned to each territory. Once territories have been determined, a salesperson has to define the day-by-day routes to satisfy the demand of customers. Currently, the company has established a service level policy that aims to minimize total waiting times during the distribution process. Also, each territory is served by a single salesperson. A novel discrete bilevel optimization model for the sales territory design problem is proposed. This problem can be seen as a bilevel problem with a single leader and multiple independent followers, in which the leader’s problem corresponds to the design of territories (manager of the company), and the routing decision for each territory corresponds to each follower. The hierarchical nature of the current company’s decision-making process triggers some particular characteristics of the bilevel model. A brain storm algorithm that exploits these characteristics is proposed to solve the discrete bilevel problem. The main features of the proposed algorithm are that the workload is used to verify the feasibility and to cluster the leader’s solutions. In addition, four discrete mechanisms are used to generate new solutions, and an elite set of solutions is considered to reduce computational cost. This algorithm is used to solve a real case study, and the results are compared against the current solution given by the company. Results show a reduction of more than 20% in the current costs with the solution obtained by the proposed algorithm. Furthermore, a sensitivity analysis is performed, providing interesting managerial insights to improve the current operations of the company. 相似文献

In this paper, the homotopy analysis method is applied to develop a analytic approach for nonlinear differential equations with time-delay. A nonlinear model in biology is used as an example to show the basic ideas of this analytic approach. Different from other analytic techniques, the homotopy analysis method provides a simple way to ensure the convergence of the solution series, so that one can always get accurate approximations. A new discontinuous function is defined so as to express the piecewise continuous solutions of time-delay differential equations in a way convenient for symbolic computations. It is found that the time-delay has a great influence on the solution of the time-delay nonlinear differential equation. This approach has general meanings and can be applied to solve other nonlinear problems with time-delay. 相似文献

In the age of information globalization, research on the mechanism of propagation will help mitigate the bad influence of rumors. Based on the classical rumor propagation model, this paper further analyzes the internal mechanism of the stochastic rumor propagation model incorporating media coverage with white noise. We investigate the existence of a unique global positive solution to the model and study the dynamic properties of the solutions around the rumor-free and local equilibrium points of the deterministic model. Furthermore, we establish sufficient conditions for the existence of traversal static distribution in the model. Numerical simulation shows that the role of media coverage is crucial to reduce the rumor propagation scale. The larger the coverage rate is, the smaller the rumor propagation scale is. 相似文献

In this paper we derive an analytical solution for the stationary distribution of the number of customers and the idle time in a single server system with semi-Markovian arrival processes in discrete time domain (SM/G/1). This kind of arrival process enables us to take autocorrelations into account, with various applications for the modeling of communication and manufacturing systems. It will be shown that the distribution of the customer number can be represented as a linear combination of geometric distributions. Thus a simple calculation of higher moments of the customer number is possible. 相似文献

In this paper, we introduce nonlinear stochastic dynamic problems on discrete time domains where events may occur at unevenly spaced time points. We define Euler equation and transversality condition for the problem. We prove that the Euler equation and the transversality condition are sufficient for the existence of the optimal solution. Next we generalize discrete time Cagan type rational expectation model to multivariate case. As an application of the main results, we obtain an explicit solution to a log-linearized nonlinear stochastic growth model. 相似文献

Multiple objectives and dynamics characterize many sequential decision problems. In the paper we consider returns in partially ordered criteria space as a way of generalization of single criterion dynamic programming models to multiobjective case. In our problem evaluations of alternatives with respect to criteria are represented by distribution functions. Thus, the overall comparison of two alternatives is equivalent to the comparison of two vectors of probability distributions. We assume that the decision maker tries to find a solution preferred to all other solutions (the most preferred solution). In the paper a new interactive procedure for stochastic, dynamic multiple criteria decision making problem is proposed. The procedure consists of two steps. First, the Bellman principle is used to identify the set of efficient solutions. Next interactive approach is employed to find the most preferred solution. A numerical example and a real-world application are presented to illustrate the applicability of the proposed technique. 相似文献

An adaptive stochastic model is introduced to simulate the behavior of real asset markets. The model adapts itself by changing its parameters automatically on the basis of the recent historical data. The basic idea underlying the model is that a random variable uniformly distributed within an interval with variable extremes can replicate the histograms of asset returns. These extremes are calculated according to the arrival of new market information. This adaptive model is applied to the daily returns of three well-known indices: Ibex35, Dow Jones and Nikkei, for three complete years. The model reproduces the histograms of the studied indices as well as their autocorrelation structures. It produces the same fat tails and the same power laws, with exactly the same exponents, as in the real indices. In addition, the model shows a great adaptation capability, anticipating the volatility evolution and showing the same volatility clusters observed in the assets. This approach provides a novel way to model asset markets with internal dynamics which changes quickly with time, making it impossible to define a fixed model to fit the empirical observations. 相似文献
