Optimal harvesting for an age-dependent <Emphasis Type="Italic">n</Emphasis>-dimensional food chain model

This paper is concerned with optimal harvesting policy for an age-dependent n-dimensional food chain model. The existence and uniqueness of non-negative solution of the system are proved using the fixed point theorem. By Mazur＇s theorem, the existence of optimal control strategy is demonstrated and optimality conditions derived by means of normal cone.     

OPTIMAL CONTROL PROBLEM FOR A PERIODIC PREDATOR-PREY MODEL WITH AGE-DEPENDENCE

In this paper,we investigate optimal policy for periodic predator-prey system with age-dependence.Namely,we consider the model with periodic vital rates and initial distribution.The existence of optimal control strategy is discussed by Mazur's theorem and optimality condition is derived by means of normal cone.     

Dynamics of populations with age-difference and diffusion: localization

In this paper we study the behavior of the solutions of the Gurtin-MacCamy model for the dynamics of populations with diffusion and age-dependence We give sufficient conditions on the birth and death modules for the population to remain localized in a fixed interval or to ultimately cover all the domain R.

Propagation of P- and S-waves in initially stressed gravitating half space

The present paper contributes in studying the phase velocities of P- and S-waves in a half space subjected to a compressive initial stress and gravity field. The density and acceleration due to gravity vary quadratically along the depth. The dispersion equation is derived in a closed form. It is shown that the phase velocities depend not only on the initial stress, gravity, and direction of propagation but also on the inhomogeneity parameter associated with the density and acceleration due to gravity. Various particular cases are obtained, and the results match with the classical results. Numerical investigations on the phase velocities of P- and S-waves against the wave number are made for various sets of values of the material parameters, and the results are illustrated graphically. The graphical user interface model is developed to generalize the effect.
