Solving Differential Equations in Developmental Models of Multicellular Structures Expressed Using L-systems

چکیده
Mathematical modeling of growing multicellular structures creates the problem of solving systems of equations in which not only the values of variables, but the equations themselves, may change over time. We consider this problem in the framework of Lindenmayer systems, a standard formalism for modeling plants, and show how parametric context−sensitive L−systems can be used to numerically solve growing systems of coupled differential equations. We illustrate our technique with a developmental model of the multicellular bacterium Anabaena.

Solving fuzzy differential equations by using Picard method
In this paper, The Picard method is proposed to solve the system of first-order fuzzy differential equations $(FDEs)$ with fuzzy initial conditions under generalized $H$-differentiability. Theexistence and uniqueness of the solution and convergence of theproposed method are proved in details. Finally, the method is illustrated by solving some examples.
متن کاملSolving large systems arising from fractional models by preconditioned methods
This study develops and analyzes preconditioned Krylov subspace methods to solve linear systems arising from discretization of the time-independent space-fractional models. First, we apply shifted Grunwald formulas to obtain a stable finite difference approximation to fractional advection-diffusion equations. Then, we employee two preconditioned iterative methods, namely, the preconditioned gen...
متن کاملVisualization of the Development of Multicellular Structures
This paper presents a simulation-based method for visualizing the development of multicellular structures in two and three dimensions. The neighborhood relations between the cells are determined by a simulated developmental process, expressed using the formalism of map L-systems and its extension, cell work L-systems. The cell shapes result from mechanical cell interactions. Two types of forces...
متن کاملThe combined reproducing kernel method and Taylor series for solving nonlinear Volterra-Fredholm integro-differential equations
In this letter, the numerical scheme of nonlinear Volterra-Fredholm integro-differential equations is proposed in a reproducing kernel Hilbert space (RKHS). The method is constructed based on the reproducing kernel properties in which the initial condition of the problem is satised. The nonlinear terms are replaced by its Taylor series. In this technique, the nonlinear Volterra-Fredholm integro...
متن کاملThe Tau-Collocation Method for Solving Nonlinear Integro-Differential Equations and Application of a Population Model
This paper presents a computational technique that called Tau-collocation method for the developed solution of non-linear integro-differential equations which involves a population model. To do this, the nonlinear integro-differential equations are transformed into a system of linear algebraic equations in matrix form without interpolation of non-poly-nomial terms of equations. Then, using coll...
