Assume that when the number of pests reaches the certain threshold, pest management strategy will be taken to control pests. Based on this assumption, in this paper, we propose a pest management model with nonlinear state feedback control. We then analyze the dynamic behavior of the model. More precisely, we first investigate the singularity of the model by using method of qualitative analysis; secondly the existence of periodic solution of the model is studied by using successor functions and Poincare-Bendixson theorem; and then it is followed by the study of the stability of periodic solution; finally, an example with numerical simulations is given to illustrate our conclusions.

Abstract In this paper, we dedicate ourselves to the study of a diffusive model for unstirred membrane reactors with maintenance energy and subject to a homogeneous Neumann boundary condition. It shows that the unique constant steady state is globally asymptotically stable when it exists. This result further implies the non-existence of any spatial patterns.

This paper aims to develop a high-dimensional SI model with stage structure for both the prey (pest) and the predator, and then to investigate the dynamics of it. The model can be used for the study of Integrated Pest Management (IPM) which is a combination of constant pulse releasing of animal enemies and diseased pests at two different fixed moments. Firstly, we use analytical techniques for impulsive delay differential equations to obtain the conditions for global attractivity of the ‘pest-free’ periodic solution and permanence of the population model. It shows that the conditions strongly depend on time delay, impulsive release of animal enemies and infective pests. Secondly, we present a pest management strategy in which the pest population is kept under the economic threshold level (ETL) when the pest population is permanent. Finally, numerical analysis is presented to illustrate our main conclusion.

The cure effect of a virus model with both cell-to-cell transmission and cell-to-virus transmission is studied. By the method of next generation matrix, the basic reproduction number is obtained. The locally asymptotic stability of the virus-free equilibrium and the endemic equilibrium is considered by investigating the characteristic equation of the model. The globally asymptotic stability of the virus-free equilibrium is proved by constructing suitable Lyapunov function, and the sufficient condition for the globally asymptotic stability of the endemic equilibrium is obtained by constructing suitable Lyapunov function and using LaSalle invariance principal.

Abstract In this paper, a new high-dimensional SIR epidemic model with double epidemic hypothesis and delays is proposed, which is a high-dimensional system of impulsive functional differential equations with time delays. The linear chain trick technique is employed to prove the upper boundedness of solutions of the impulsive delay differential equations and scaling method techniques for inequalities and classification method are used to study the permanence of the high-dimensional system. We also prove that the ‘infection-free’ periodic solution of the system is globally attractive when R 1 1 and the system is permanent under R 2 > 1 . Moreover, numerical simulation for impulsive and delayed system is presented to illustrate our main conclusions which shows that time delays and pulse vaccination have significant effects on the dynamics behaviors of the model. The feature of the present paper is that the double epidemic hypothesis have different forms of delays to more realistically describe the spread of epidemic though which makes the high-dimensional system more complex.

Delayed plant disease mathematical models including continuous cultural control strategy and impulsive cultural control strategy are presented and investigated. Firstly, we consider continuous cultural control strategy in which continuous replanting of healthy plants is taken. The existence and local stability of disease-free equilibrium and positive equilibrium are studied by analyzing the associated characteristic transcendental equation. And then, plant disease model with impulsive replanting of healthy plants is also considered; the sufficient condition under which the infected plant-free periodic solution is globally attritive is obtained. Moreover, permanence of the system is studied. Some numerical simulations are also given to illustrate our results.

We first propose a new epidemic disease model governed by system of impulsive delay differential equations. Then, based on theories for impulsive delay differential equations, we skillfully solve the difficulty in analyzing the global dynamical behavior of the model with pulse vaccination and impulsive population input effects at two different periodic moments. We prove the existence and global attractivity of the “infection-free” periodic solution and also the permanence of the model. We then carry out numerical simulations to illustrate our theoretical results, showing us that time delay, pulse vaccination, and pulse population input can exert a significant influence on the dynamics of the system which confirms the availability of pulse vaccination strategy for the practical epidemic prevention. Moreover, it is worth pointing out that we obtained an epidemic control strategy for controlling the number of population input.

According to integrated pest management strategies, we construct and investigate the dynamics of a Holling-Tanner predator-prey system with state dependent impulsive effects by releasing natural enemies and spraying pesticide at different thresholds. Applying the Dulacs criterion, the global stability of the positive equilibrium in the system without impulsive effect is discussed. By using impulsive differential equation geometry theory and the method of successor functions, we prove the existence of periodic solution of the system with state dependent impulsive effects. Furthermore, the stability conditions of periodic solutions are obtained. Some simulations are exerted to illustrate the feasibility of our main results.

Abstract The study of spatio-temporal behaviour of ecological systems is fundamentally important as it can provide deep understanding of species interaction and predict the effects of environmental changes. In this paper, we first propose a spatial model with prey taxis for planktonic systems, in which we also consider the herb behaviour in prey and effect of the hyperbolic mortality rate. Applying the homogeneous Neumann boundary condition to the model and using prey-tactic sensitivity coefficient as bifurcation parameter, we then detailedly analyse the stability and bifurcation of the steady state of the system: firstly, we carry out a study of the equilibrium bifurcation, showing the occurrence of fold bifurcation, Hopf bifurcation and the BT bifurcation; then by using an abstract bifurcation theory and taking prey-tactic sensitivity coefficient as the bifurcation parameter, we investigate the Turing–Hopf bifurcation, obtaining a branch of stable non-constant solutions bifurcating from the positive equilibrium, and our results show that prey-taxis can yield the occurrence of spatio-temporal patterns; finally, numerical simulations are carried out to illustrate our theoretical results, showing the existence of a periodic solution when the prey-tactic sensitivity coefficient is away from the critical value.

ABSTRACT In this paper, a new mathematical model describing the process of continuous culture and harvest of microalgaes is proposed. By inputting medium and flocculant at two different fixed moments periodically, continuous culture and harvest of microalgaes is implemented. The mathematical analysis is conducted and the whole dynamics of model is investigated by using theory of impulsive differential equations. We find that the model has a microalgaes-extinction periodic solution and it is globally asymptotically stable when some certain threshold value is less than the unit. And the model is permanent when some certain threshold value is larger than the unit. Then, according to the threshold, the control strategies of continuous culture and harvest of microalgaes are discussed. The results show that continuous culture and harvest of microalgaes can be archived by adjusting suitable input time, input amount of medium or flocculant. Finally, some numerical simulations are carried out to verify the control strategy.
