Explicit Finite Difference Method

AbstractVarious initial and boundary value problems for a 2-dimensional reaction-diffusion equation are studied numerically by an explicit Finite Difference Method (FDM), a Galerkin and a Petrov-Galerkin Finite Element Method (FEM). The results not only show the transition processes from different local initial disturbances to quasitravelling waves, but also demonstrate the long term behaviour of the solutions, which is determined by the system itself and does not depend on the details of the initial disturbances.

This study proposed a scheme originated from the Galerkin finite element method (GFEM) for solving nonlinear parabolic partial differential equations (PDEs) numerically with initial and different types of boundary conditions. The scheme is applied generally handling the nonlinear terms in a simple way and throwing over restrictive assumptions. The convergence and stability analysis of the method are derived. The error of the method is estimated. In the series, eminent problems are solved, such as  Fisher's equation, Newell-Whitehead-Segel equation, Burger's equation, and  Burgers-Huxley equation to demonstrate the validity, efficiency, accuracy, simplicity and applicability of this scheme. In each example, the comparison results are presented both numerically and graphically

Equations With Delay

We consider positive travelling fronts, u ( t ,  x )= ϕ ( ν . x + ct ), ϕ (−∞)=0, ϕ (∞)= κ , of the equation u t ( t ,  x )=Δ u ( t ,  x )− u ( t ,  x )+ g ( u ( t − h ,  x )), x ∈ m . This equation is assumed to have exactly two non-negative equilibria: u 1 ≡0 and u 2 ≡ κ >0, but the birth function g ∈ C 2 ( ,  ) may be non-monotone on [0, κ ]. We are therefore interested in the so-called monostable case of the time-delayed reaction–diffusion equation. Our main result shows that for every fixed and sufficiently large velocity c , the positive travelling front ϕ ( ν . x + ct ) is unique (modulo translations). Note that ϕ may be non-monotone. To prove uniqueness, we introduce a small parameter ϵ =1/ c and realize a Lyapunov–Schmidt reduction in a scale of Banach spaces.

AbstractIn this paper we extend a theorem of Mallet-Paret and Sell for the existence of an inertial manifold for a scalar-valued reaction diffusion equation to new physical domains ωn ⊂ Rn, n = 2,3. For their result the Principle of Spatial Averaging (PSA), which certain domains may possess, plays a key role for the existence of an inertial manifold. Instead of the PSA, we define a weaker PSA and prove that the domains φn with appropriate boundary conditions for the Laplace operator, δ, satisfy a weaker PSA. This weaker PSA is enough to ensure the existence of an inertial manifold for a specific class of scalar-valued reaction diffusion equations on each domain ωn under suitable conditions.

Linear Reaction

Embryonic development involves diffusion and proliferation of cells, as well as diffusion and reaction of molecules, within growing tissues. Mathematical models of these processes often involve reaction-diffusion equations on growing domains that have been primarily studied using approximate numerical solutions. Recently, we have shown how to obtain an exact solution to a single, uncoupled, linear reaction-diffusion equation on a growing domain, 0 < x < L(t), where L(t) is the domain length. The present work is an extension of our previous study, and we illustrate how to solve a system of coupled reaction-diffusion equations on a growing domain. This system of equations can be used to study the spatial and temporal distributions of different generations of cells within a population that diffuses and proliferates within a growing tissue. The exact solution is obtained by applying an uncoupling transformation, and the uncoupled equations are solved separately before applying the inverse uncoupling transformation to give the coupled solution. We present several example calculations to illustrate different types of behaviour. The frst example calculation corresponds to a situation where the initially-confned population diffuses suffciently slowly that it isunable to reach the moving boundary at x=L(t). In contrast, the second example calculation corresponds to a situation where the initially-confned population is able to overcome the domain growth and reach the moving boundary at x=L(t). In its basic format, the uncoupling transformation at first appears to be restricted to deal only with the case where each generation of cells has a distinct proliferation rate. However, we also demonstrate how the uncoupling transformation can be used when each generation has the same proliferation rate by evaluating the exact solutions as an appropriate limit.

This paper presents a uniform convergent numerical method for solving singularly perturbed delay reaction-diffusion equations. The stability and convergence analysis are investigated. Numerical results are tabulated and the effect of the layer on the solution is examined. In a nutshell, the present method improves the findings of some existing numerical methods reported in the literature. Keywords: Singularly perturbed, Time delay, Reaction-diffusion equation, Layer
