High Order DNS For Late Flow Transition
(Mathematics, 2012-07-25)
In this report, a new high order scheme for boundary points is introduced when calculating the derivative of smooth functions by Compact Scheme. The primitive function reconstruction method of ENO schemes is applied to ...
A Study On The Two Component Periodic Shallow Water Systems
(Mathematics, 2012-07-25)
In this dissertation we study the generalized periodic two-component Camassa-Holm system and the generalized periodic two-component Dullin-Gottwald-Holm system, which can be derived from the Euler equation with nonzero ...
New Results In Finite Geometries Pertaining To Albert-like Semifields
(Mathematics, 2012-07-25)
One of the most widely studied class of semifields are the generalized twisted fields defined by Albert in the 50s and 60s. The collineation groups of generalized twisted field planes have been completely described. In a ...
Nonlinear Dynamics And Stochasticity Of Core Genetic Regulation
(Mathematics, 2012-07-25)
"Bacillus subtilis" is one of the very well-studied organisms in biology. Recent results show that an alternative competence regulation circuit for this bacterium, differing only in the order of the composite negative ...
High Order LES For Supersonic Ramp Flow Control With MVG
(Mathematics, 2012-07-25)
An implicitly implemented large eddy simulation by using the fifth order bandwidth-optimized WENO scheme is applied to make comprehensive studies on ramp flows with and without control at Mach 2.5 and Re=5760. Flow control ...
Effects Of Vector Migration On Sylvatic Trypanosoma Cruzi Transmission
(Mathematics, 2012-07-25)
Vector-borne diseases have had a major impact on global health concerns since their discovery in the 1800's. A vector-borne disease is one transmitted to human or animal host via an invertebrate vector (usually an insect). ...
The role of the ratio of vector and host densities in the evolution of transmission modes in vector-borne diseases. The example of sylvatic Trypanosoma cruzi
(2012)
Pathogens may use different routes of transmission to maximize their spread among
host populations. Theoretical and empirical work conducted on directly-transmitted diseases
suggest that horizontal (i.e., through host ...
Predictive Model For Bigheaded Carps In Mississippi River
(Mathematics, 2012-04-11)
Bigheaded carps refer to two species of fish called Silver carp and Bigheaded carp which have invaded the Upper Mississippi River System and are causing nuisance to the native fish like catfish, paddlefish and gizzard Shad ...
Resolutions And Tor Algebra Structures For Trivariate Monomial Ideals
(Mathematics, 2012-07-25)
In this manuscript we explore properties of minimal free resolutions and their relationship to the Tor-algebra structure for trivariate monomial ideals. We begin with an in-depth analysis of minimal free resolutions of ...
The role of adaptations in two-strain competition for sylvatic Trypanosoma cruzi transmission
(Taylor and Francis Online, 2012-08)
This study presents a continuous-time model for the sylvatic transmission dynamics of two strains of Trypanosoma cruzi enzootic in North America, in order to study the role that adaptations of each strain to distinct modes ...
