Numerical Analysis of a Size-Structured Population Model with a Dynamical Resource

چکیده
In this paper, we analyze the convergence of a second-order numerical method for the approximation of a size-structured population model whose dependency on the environment is managed by the evolution of a vital resource. Optimal convergence rate is derived. Numerical experiments are also reported to demonstrate the predicted accuracy of the scheme. Also, it is applied to solve a problem that describes the dynamics of a Daphnia magna population, paying attention to the unstable case. Keywords-structured population models; numerical methods; convergence; Daphnia magna

Dynamical behavior of a stage structured prey-predator model
In this paper, a new stage structured prey-predator model with linear functional response is proposed and studied. The stages for prey have been considered. The proposed mathematical model consists of three nonlinear ordinary differential equations to describe the interaction among juvenile prey, adult prey and predator populations. The model is analyzed by using linear stability analysis to ob...
متن کاملNumerical approximation of singular asymptotic states for a size-structured population model with a dynamical resource
We compare two selection procedures in a numerical method proposed for the numerical simulation of the long time behaviour of solutions for a size-structured population model whose dependency on the environment ismanaged by the evolution of a vital resource and with a free sign growth rate. We obtain the approximation of singular asymptotic states such as stable steady ones and attractive limit...

متن کاملAsymptotic behavior of size structured populations via juvenile-adult interaction∗
In this work a size structured juvenile-adult population model is considered. The linearized dynamical behavior of stationary solutions is analyzed using semigroup and spectral methods. The regularity of the governing linear semigroup allows to derive biologically meaningful conditions for the linear stability of stationary solutions. The main emphasis in this work is on juvenile-adult interact...
