چکیده

We consider a bistable reaction-diffusion system arising in the theory of phase transitions; it appears in several physical contexts such as thin magnetic films and the microphase separation in diblock copolymer melts. Mathematically it takes the form of an Allen-Cahn equation coupled to an elliptic equation. This system possesses a Lyapunov functional which represents the Gibbs free energy of the phase separation problem. We study the large time behavior of the solution orbits, and use the fact that the problem has a gradient structure to prove their stabilization by means of a version of Łojasiewicz inequality. keywords: gradient flow, Łojasiewicz inequality, stabilization of solutions, FitzHugh-Nagumo system, diblock copolymer, infinite dimensional dynamical systems

An improved pseudospectral approximation of generalized Burger-Huxley and Fitzhugh-Nagumo equations

In this research paper, an improved Chebyshev-Gauss-Lobatto pseudospectral approximation of nonlinear Burger-Huxley and Fitzhugh- Nagumo equations have been presented. The method employs chebyshev Gauss-Labatto points in time and space to obtain spectral accuracy. The mapping has introduced and transformed the initial-boundary value non-homogeneous problem to homogeneous problem. The main probl...

Pattern Formation of the FitzHugh-Nagumo Model: Cellular Automata Approach

FitzHugh-Nagumo (FHN) model is a famous Reaction-Diffusion System which first introduced for the conduction of electrical impulses along a nerve fiber. This model is also considered as an abstract model for pattern formation. Here, we have used the Cellular Automata method to simulate the pattern formation of the FHN model. It is shown that the pattern of this model is very similar to those...

Feedback Stabilization to Nonstationary Solutions of a Class of Reaction Diffusion Equations of FitzHugh-Nagumo Type

Stabilization to a trajectory for the monodomain equations, a coupled nonlinear PDE-ODE system, is investigated. The results rely on stabilization of linear first-order in time nonautonomous evolution equations combined with stabilizability results for the linearized monodomain equations and a fixed point argument to treat local stabilizability of the nonlinear system. Numerical experiments for...

Riccati-Based Feedback Control of the Monodomain Equations With the Fitzhugh-Nagumo Model

Feedback control for the monodomain equations is studied. The dynamics of interest are governed by a coupled PDE-ODE reaction diffusion system with non-monotone nonlinearity of FitzHugh-Nagumo type. A localized distributed control is used to locally stabilize the nonlinear system. This is achieved by a Riccati-based feedback law, determined by the linearized system. It is shown that the Riccati...

On the bifurcation curve for an elliptic system of FitzHugh-Nagumo type

We study a system of partial differential equations derived from the FitzHugh-Nagumo model. In one dimension solutions are required to satisfy zero Dirichlet boundary conditions on the interval Ω = (−1, 1). Estimates are given to describe bounds on the range of parameters over which solutions exist; numerical computations provide the global bifurcation diagram for families of symmetric and asym...
