This paper investigates an autonomous discrete-time glycolytic oscillator model with a unique positive equilibrium point which exhibits chaos in the sense of Li–Yorke in a certain region of the parameters. We use Marotto’s theorem to prove the existence of chaos by finding a snap-back repeller. The illustration of the results is presented by using numerical simulations. Full article

This contribution proposes a variational symplectic integrator aimed at linear systems issued from the least action principle. An internal quadratic finite-element interpolation of the state is performed at each time step. Then, the action is approximated by Simpson’s quadrature formula. The implemented scheme is implicit, symplectic, and conditionally stable. It is applied to the time integration of systems with quadratic Lagrangians. The example of the linearized double pendulum is treated. Our method is compared with Newmark’s variational integrator. The exact solution of the linearized double pendulum example is used for benchmarking. Simulation results illustrate the precision and convergence of the proposed integrator. Full article

The current values of many populations depend on the past values of the population. In many cases, this dependence is caused by the time certain processes take. This dependence on the past can be introduced into mathematical models by adding delays. For example, the growth rate of a population depends on the population τ time units ago, where τ is the maturation time. For an epidemic, there is a time τ between the contact of an infected individual and a susceptible one, and the time the susceptible individual actually becomes infected. This time τ is also a delay. So, the number of infected individuals depends on the population at the time τ units ago. A second way of introducing this dependence on past values is to use non-local operators in the description of the model. Fractional derivatives have commonly been used to provide non-local effects. In population growth models, it can also be done by introducing a new compartment, the immature population, and in epidemic models, by introducing an additional exposed population. In this paper, we study and compare these methods of adding dependence on past values. For models of processes that involve delays, all three methods include dependence on past values, but fractional-order models do not justify the form of the dependence. Simulations show that for the models studied, the fractional differential equation method produces similar results to those obtained by explicitly incorporating the delay, but only for specific values of the fractional derivative order, which is an extra parameter. But in all three methods, the results are improved compared to using ordinary differential equations. Full article

A three-differential-equation mathematical model is presented for the degradation of phenol and p-cresol combination in a bioreactor that is continually agitated. The stability analysis of the model’s equilibrium points, as established by the study, is covered. Additionally, we used three alternative kernels to analyze the model with the fractal–fractional derivatives, and we looked into the effects of the fractal size and fractional order. We have developed highly efficient numerical techniques for the concentration of biomass, phenol, and p-cresol. Lastly, numerical simulations are used to illustrate the accuracy of the suggested method. Full article

This paper contributes to the problem of chaos and hyperchaos localization in the fundamental structure of analog building blocks dedicated to single-tone harmonic signal generation. This time, the known Reinartz sinusoidal oscillator is addressed, considering its conventional topology, both via numerical analysis and experiments using a flow-equivalent lumped electronic circuit. It is shown that physically reasonable values of circuit parameters can result in robust dynamical behavior characterized by a pair of positive Lyapunov exponents. Mandatory numerical results prove that discovered strange attractors exhibit all necessary fingerprints of structurally stable chaos. The new “chaotic” parameters are closely related to the standard operation of the investigated analog functional block. A few interestingly shaped, strange attractors have been captured as oscilloscope screenshots. Full article
