We present the system of two nonlinear difference‐differential equations with lag which is a mathematical model of self‐regulation of sugar level in blood. We analyze the pathological case, i.e. describe the concrete patients glycemia self‐regulation system and diet. The model helps to determine the dosage and tactics of the traditional insulinotherapy practicing discrete inputs of insulin into the organism with the help of injections.

Here a system of two non-linear difference-differential equations, which is mathematical model of self-regulation of the sugar level in blood, is investigated. The analysis carried out by qualitative and numerical methods allows us to conclude that the mathematical model explains the functioning of the physiological system "insulin-blood sugar" in both normal and pathological cases, i.e. diabetes mellitus and hyperinsulinism.

We consider the problem of the propagation of high-intensity acoustic waves in a bubble layer consisting of spherical bubbles of identical size with a uniform distribution. The mathematical model is a coupled system of partial differential equations for the acoustic pressure and the instantaneous radius of the bubbles consisting of the wave equation coupled with the Rayleigh–Plesset equation. We perform an analytic analysis based on the study of Lie symmetries for this system of equations, concentrating our attention on the traveling wave case. We then consider mappings of the resulting reductions onto equations defining elliptic functions, and special cases thereof, for example, solvable in terms of hyperbolic functions. In this way, we construct exact solutions of the system of partial differential equations under consideration. We believe this to be the first analytic study of this particular mathematical model.

Drawing on the reciprocal determinism of self-regulation system, a process-based model is used to examine the relationship of learning goal orientation (LGO) among university students with their academic performance, via reciprocal relationships between initial status and change trajectories in academic self-efficacy and feedback-seeking behaviors. A longitudinal study of 316 Chinese university students throughout their first year in college reveals that students who have high LGO in their first month after entering the university generally have higher academic self-efficacy and seek more feedback. Moreover, initial levels of feedback seeking are positively related to academic performance via linear change in academic self-efficacy over time. Limitations of the study and practical implications are discussed.

The article presents the theoretical and methodological principles for forecasting and mathematical modeling of possible risks in technological and biotechnological systems. The authors investigated in details the possible approach to the calculation of the goal function and its parameters. Considerable attention is paid to substantiating the correctness of boundary value problems and Cauchy problems. In mechanics, engineering, and biology, Cauchy problems and boundary value problems of differential equations are used to model physical processes. It is important that differential equations have a single physically sound solution. The authors of this article investigate the specific features of boundary value problems and Cauchy problems with boundary conditions in a two-point medium, and determine the conditions for the correctness of such problems in the spaces of power growth functions. The theory of pseudo-differential operators in the space of generalized functions was used to prove the correctness of boundary value problems. The application of the obtained results will make it possible to guarantee the correctness of mathematical models built in conditions of uncertainty and possible risks. As an example of a computational mathematical model that describes the state of the studied object of non-standard shape, the authors considered the boundary value problem of the system of differential equations of thermal conductivity for the embryo under the action of a laser beam. For such a boundary value problem, it is impossible to guarantee the existence and uniqueness of the solution of the system of differential equations. To be sure of the existence of a single solution, it is necessary either not to take into account the three-layer structure of the microbiological object, or to determine the conditions for the correctness of the boundary value problem. Applying the results obtained by the authors, the correctness of the boundary value problem of systems of differential equations of thermal conductivity for the embryo is proved taking into account the three-layer structure of the microbiological object. This makes it possible to increase the accuracy and speed of its implementation on the computer. Key words: forecasting, risk, correctness, boundary value problems, conditions of uncertainty

The starting mode for the train is the most difficult. An effective method of pulling is the selection of coupling clearances. In this case, the cars are set in motion sequentially and the inert mass, as well as the static friction force immediately at the moment of starting, are minimal. This method has two significant drawbacks - a small fixed value of the gaps in the couplings and the shock nature of the impulse transfer. These disadvantages can be avoided by using elastically deformable couplings. The aim of this work is to construct a mathematical model of "easy" starting of a train with elastic couplings. The softening of the train start-off mode is essentially due to the replacement of the simultaneous start-off of the sections with alternate ones. To exclude longitudinal vibrations of the composition, after reaching the maximum tension of the coupling, the possibility of its harmonic compression should be mechanically blocked.

The investigation studies the relationship between narcissistic self-regulation with the features and expression of self-stigmatization in patients with endogenous mental disorders. The study involved 131 people, including patients with schizophrenia — 66.8% and individuals with affective disorders — 33.2%. The survey was conducted by using the following methods: «Index of Self-system functioning» and questionnaire of self-stigmatization by Mikhailova-Yastrebov. Data on correlation of strength personality reducing with selfstigmatization, the specifics of Self-regulation structure in various inner stigma forms, and the absence of IFSS significant differences in patient’s groups with different nosological forms of mental disorders, disease’s duration and number of hospitalizations — were obtained. The specific personal characteristics underlying premorbid changes in the Self-regulation system that determine the vulnerability of patients to the formation of stigma are discussed.

A generalized mathematical model of the breast and ovarian cancer is developed by considering the fractional differential equations with Caputo time-fractional derivatives. The use of the fractional model shows that the time-evolution of the proliferating cell mass, the quiescent cell mass, and the proliferative function are significantly influenced by their history. Even if the classical model, based on the derivative of integer order has been studied in many papers, its analytical solutions are presented in order to make the comparison between the classical model and the fractional model. Using the finite difference method, numerical schemes to the Caputo derivative operator and Riemann-Liouville fractional integral operator are obtained. Numerical solutions to the fractional differential equations of the generalized mathematical model are determined for the chemotherapy scheme based on the function of "on-off" type. Numerical results, obtained with the Mathcad software, are discussed and presented in graphical illustrations. The presence of the fractional order of the time-derivative as a parameter of solutions gives important information regarding the proliferative function, therefore, could give the possible rules for more efficient chemotherapy.

<p>At present, when constructing a mathematical description of the pyrolysis reactor, partial differential equations for the components of the gas phase and the catalyst phase are used. In the well-known works on modeling pyrolysis, the obtained models are applicable only for a narrow range of changes in the process parameters, the geometric dimensions are considered constant. The article poses the task of creating a complex mathematical model with additional terms, taking into account nonlinear effects, where the geometric dimensions of the apparatus and operating characteristics vary over a wide range. An analytical method has been developed for the implementation of a mathematical model of catalytic pyrolysis of methane for the production of nanomaterials in a continuous mode. The differential equation for gaseous components with initial and boundary conditions of the third type is reduced to a dimensionless form with a small value of the peclet criterion with a form factor. It is shown that the laplace transform method is mainly suitable for this case, which is applicable both for differential equations for solid-phase components and calculation in a periodic mode. The adequacy of the model results with the known experimental data is checked.</p>

We study the center-focus problem as well as the number of limit cycles which bifurcate from a weak focus for several families of planar discontinuous ordinary differential equations. Our computations of the return map near the critical point are performed with a new method based on a suitable decomposition of certain one-forms associated with the expression of the system in polar coordinates. This decomposition simplifies all the expressions involved in the procedure. Finally, we apply our results to study a mathematical model of a mechanical problem, the movement of a ball between two elastic walls.

Abstract This work investigates the dynamics by which the bombardier beetle releases a pulsed jet of fluid as a defense mechanism. A mathematical model is proposed which takes the form of a pair of piece wise continuous differential equations with dependent variables as fluid pressure and quantity of reactant. The model is shown to exhibit an effective equilibrium point (EEP). Conditions for the existence, classification and stability of an EEP are derived and these are applied to the model of the bombardier beetle.
