The model is primarily based on the geometry of coastline at the scale of the map representing the region under study. It can be used to determine sites of human occupation for archaeological interest, as well as to plan future movements of present coastal populations due to the current sea level rise. Two examples related to history are presented: the first applies to the coastal peopling of the Mediterranean region, and the second to the settlement of Acadians in North-East of the Canadian province of New Brunswick in the second half of the 18th century.展开更多

Here, we propose a mathematical model of the spread of this disease, analyze this model mathematically and determine one or more dominant factors in the propagation of the COVID-19 epidemic. We consider the S-E-I-R epidemic model in the form of ordinary differential equations, in a population structured in susceptibles S, exposed E as caregivers, travelers and assistants at public events, infected I and recovered R classes. Here we decompose the recovered class into two classes: The deaths class D and the class of those who are truly healed H. After the model construction, we have calculated the basic reproduction number R<sub>0</sub>, which is a function of certain number of parameters like the size of the exposed class E. In our paper, the mathematical analysis, which consists in searching the equilibrium points and studying their stability, is done. The work identifies some parameters on which one can act to control the spread of the disease. The numerical simulations are done and they illustrate our theoretical analysis.展开更多

General hypotheses are formulated, which are the qualitative results of the asymptotic method of integration of the stated initial-boundary value problem. On the basis of the accepted hypotheses general applied one-dimensional models of dynamics of bending deformation of micropolar orthotropic elastic thin bars with free fields of displacements and rotations are constructed with and without consideration of shear deformations. With the help of the constructed models different dynamic problems of micropolar bars can be studied. Here concrete problems of free and forced vibrations of hinged supported micropolar orthotropic elastic thin bar are studied. Numerical analysis is done and specific features of dynamic characteristics of micropolar material are revealed. Particularly, it is shown that there is a frequency of vibrations of the micropolar bar that does not depend on bar sizes.展开更多

The autonomous system corresponding to the system under discussion is analytically studied to draw all global bifurcation diagrams in every parameter space. These diagrams are called basic bifurcation ones. Then fixing parameter in every space and taking the parametrically excited amplitude as a bifurcation parameter, we can observe how to evolve from a basic bifurcation diagram to a chaos pattern in terms of numerical methods. The results are sufficient to show that the system has distinct dynamic behavior. Finally, the properties of the basins of attraction are observed and the appearance of fractal basin boundaries heralding the onset of a loss of structural integrity is noted in order to consider how to control the extent and the rate of the erosion in the next paper.展开更多

It proposes a modification of Banister’s original performance model to improve the accuracy of predicted performance. The new formulation introduces a variable that accounts for changes in the subject’s initial performance as a result of the quantity of training. The two systems models were applied to a well-trained female monofin swimmer over a 24-week training period. Each model comprised a set of parameters unique to the individual and was estimated by fitting model-predicted performance to measured performance. We used the Alienor method associated to Optimization-Preserving Operators to identify these parameters. The quantification method based on training intensity zones gave a better estimation of predicted performance in both models. Using the new model in sports in which performance is generally predicted (running, swimming) will help us to define its real interest.展开更多
