Asymptotic solution of wave front of the telegraph model of dispersive variability

A number of nonlinear phenomena in physical, chemical, economical and biological processes are described by the interplay of reaction and diffusion or by the interaction between convection and diffusion. Recently, it is found that telegraph equation is more suitable than ordinary diffusion equation in modelling reaction diffusion for such branches of sciences. In this paper we use the technique of asymptotic solution to find travelling wave solution for the telegraph model of dispersive variability which is a generalization of the Julian Cook model. Our model tackled special values of the time delay and the probability that an individual is disperser in a population of dispersers and nondispersers. The solution of our model is reduced to telegraph Fisher–Kolmogoroff invasion and Julian Cook models. Also, the effect of the time delay on the propagation speed is presented.
