Abstract Solar sail and other perturbation effects are studied on the dynamical motion of the infinitesimal body in the four interacting bodies where three bigger bodies (two out of these three bodies are oblate in shape and equal in size) are situated at the vertices of an equilateral triangle. The important dynamical properties, like the locations of equilibrium points, their stability, the periodic orbits, Poincaré surfaces of section, and the basins of attraction, are illustrated with the evaluated equations of motion in unperturbed and perturbed cases. This investigation will be helpful to the space agencies worldwide.

Abstract The second-order nonlinear diffusion parabolic partial differential equations models have been widely applied in image restoration. However, the numerical results in the literature treat only the case without source term. In this paper, we have developed a general calculation code which is based in a consistent explicit approximation finite difference method scheme. Furthermore, the paper provides satisfying answers with a nonlinear source term relying on the image solution and its gradient. Numerical experiments are presented to show the robustness of the cases with source term to obtain better results in image denoising restoration using measures as Peak Signal-to-Noise Ratio (PSNR) and SNR of filtering and noisy image.

Abstract

This research explores the impact of the relative magnetic effect on the Couette flow of dusty Casson fluid between two parallel Riga plates. The mathematical model is based on a set of partial differential equations that describe the behavior of the dusty Casson fluid in interaction with the Riga plate. To convert this system of equations to its dimensionless form, appropriate transformations are used, and to solve this system numerically, explicit finite difference methods are applied to it. A graphical representation has been presented by using MatLab software for a comprehensive understanding of the effect of various non-dimensional parameters such as pressure gradient parameter (α), Casson parameter (β), modified Hartmann number (H_a), fluid concentration parameter (R), particle mass parameter (G), Eckert number (E_c), Prandtl number (P_r), and temperature relaxation time parameter (L₀) on the velocity distributions u (or u_p) and on the temperature distributions θ (or θ_p), including shear stress and Nusselt number for both clean and dust fluid particles. The impacts of these parameters on the above-mentioned distributions have been discussed with their physical significance, taking the variation of any one of those parameters and with fixed values of α =1, β = 2, H_a=1, R = 0.5, G = 0.5, E_c = 0.01, P_r = 0.71, and L₀ =0.8. The results reveal significant effects of relative magnetic fields on both clean fluid and dust particle motion.

Abstract This study develops two compartmental models to analyze the co-dynamics between measles and hand, foot, and mouth disease (HFMD): a four-compartment model and a seven-compartment HFMD-Measles co-infection model. For the four-compartment model, we systematically analyzed the co-dynamics of measles and hand, foot, and mouth disease (HFMD), and employed the next-generation matrix method to calculate the basic reproduction number of measles and that of HFMD. Through the analytical study of these two types of basic reproduction numbers, we rigorously determined the existence of the disease equilibrium points, with their quantitative relationship were clearly illustrated through graphical representations. The global asymptotic stability of these equilibria is established by applying LaSalle invariance principle, with stability regions of the four equilibrium points precisely defined. The analysis reveals that within the stability region of the disease-free equilibrium, both diseases will eventually die out, preventing any outbreaks. In the stability region corresponding to the measles equilibrium, HFMD is eliminated while measles remains endemic. Conversely, in the stability region of the HFMD-only equilibrium, measles dies out whereas HFMD persists. Finally, within the stability region of the coexistence equilibrium, both diseases persist and become endemic. Numerical simulations further validate the consistency and reliability of these theoretical results. For the seven-compartment infectious disease model, we calculated the basic reproduction number and verified the threshold theorem. We derived the conditions for both local and global asymptotic stability of the disease-free equilibrium. In particular, the disease-free equilibrium is locally stable when the basic reproduction number is less than one, and we also provided conditions for its global stability. Model validation is performed by fitting empirical data from China on HFMD and measles cases.

Abstract

In this paper, we continue using the theoretical model describing 3D-branching systems that is applied to describe the living system, such as the silkworm butterfly cocoons (Bombyx mori). The proposed fitting function that follows from the applied model allows us to describe completely with high accuracy (the fitting error is less than 0.1%) the whole stage of the temporal evolution of the silkworm cocoons in room conditions (during 13 days of the experiment the lowest temperature noted was 27 ℃ and the highest temperature was 29 ℃) and with relative humidity located in the interval [H_min 54% £ H £ 76% H_max] during 13 days (13 November 2023 to 25 November 2023) of the impedance measurements. The selection of this biological object is related to the fact that all possible conducting channels formed inside the given cocoon have 3D structures. Analysis of the measured impedance data shows that the measurements at the beginning of each day have a monotone character, while each measurement after the first measurement of each day has chaotic behavior. It means that during the night a cocoon “has a rest”. After this resting period, the applied voltage disturbs internal processes that are reflected in the behavior of the measured impedance. It has an oscillating character. These oscillations reflect the “regrouping” of conducting channels that take place inside the measured cocoon.

Abstract

The article deals with the problem of ternary logic, in which, except for the states “yes” and “no” (inherent in the traditional binary logic), is introduced the “third state” U—“Unknown”, and also addresses the issues of technical and mathematical problems that arise in this case. To do this, the ternary logic of Stephen Kleene has been corrected, and the implementation of ternary calculations using probabilistic polynomials over the field of real numbers has been proposed. The authors analyze the process of the addition of the “third state” to binary logic, in that regard the approach of Stephen Kleene, who introduced an “indefinite state”. But the authors judge it necessary to introduce also the negation of the “indefinite state” and suggest a way to replace logical functions with probabilistic polynomials based on the field of real numbers, which are conveniently calculated on modern hardware, for example, in video card processors. Terms of the ternary logic can be useful for the implementation of new artificial intelligence projects that model the operation of thinking with uncertain results, while the transition to probabilistic functions can expand the capabilities of such models and simplify the analysis of errors that occur during the operation of artificial intelligence systems.
