An observer for a nonlinear age-structured model of a harvested fish population by Diène Ngom, A. Iggidir, Aboudramane Guiro, Abderrahim Ouahbi

“…To achieve this goal,we built an observer, which is an auxiliary system that uses the total numberof fish caught over each season and gives a dynamical estimation of the numberof fish by age class. We analyse the convergence of the observer and we showthat the error estimation tends to zero with exponential speed if a conditionon the fishing effort is satisfied. …”

Sandy Soil Liquefaction Prediction Based on Clustering-Binary Tree Neural Network Algorithm Model by Yu Wang, Jiachen Wang

“…According to the main factors affecting sand liquefaction, a sand liquefaction discriminant model based on a clustering-binary tree multiclass neural network algorithm is established using the class distance idea in cluster analysis. The model can establish the nonlinear relationship between sand liquefaction and various influencing factors by learning limited samples. …”

A simple model of the Draupner Wave Experiment by Graeme Hocking, Emma Nel, Alice Markham, Erick Mubai, Thama Duba, Samah Ali, Hloniphile Sithole Mthethwa, Morwakoma Matabane, Ndivhuwo Ndou, Katlego Sebogodi, Salma Ahmedai, Nyathi Freeman

“…The Mathematics in Industry Study Group organized by Professor David Mason at the University of Witwatersrand in January, 2024, considered these waves due to their frequency at locations off the South African coast. There are a number of quite sophisticated models of these waves, but in this work we try to reproduce something like a rogue wave with a very simple free surface model, and in particular consider a wave generated in a circular tank by wave activity at the outer edge. …”
