Flocculation is the process whereby particles (i.e., flocs) in suspension reversibly combine and separate. The process is widespread in soft matter and aerosol physics as well as environmental science and engineering. We consider a general size-structured flocculation model, which describes the evolution of floc size distribution in an aqueous environment. Our work provides a unified treatment for many size-structured models in the environmental, industrial, medical, and marine engineering literature. In particular, the mathematical model considered in this work accounts for basic biological phenomena in a population of microorganisms including growth, death, sedimentation, predation, surface erosion, renewal, fragmentation and aggregation. The central objective of this work is to prove existence of positive steady states of this generalized flocculation model. Using results from fixed point theory we derive conditions for the existence of continuous, non-trivial stationary solutions. We further develop a numerical scheme based on spectral collocation method to approximate these positive stationary solutions. We explore the stationary solutions of the model for various biologically relevant parameters and give valuable insights for the efficient removal of suspended particles.

In this paper, we study the existence, stability and bifurcation of random complete and periodic solutions for stochastic parabolic equations with multiplicative noise. We first prove the existence and uniqueness of tempered random attractors for the
The purpose of this paper is extend recent results of Bonder-Groisman and Foondun-Nualart to the stochastic wave equation. In particular, a suitable integrability condition for non-existence of global solutions is derived.
We find the complete equivalence group of a class of (1+1)-dimensional second-order evolution equations, which is infinite-dimensional. The equivariant moving frame methodology is invoked to construct, in the regular case of the normalization procedu
We devise an explicit method to integrate $alpha$-stable stochastic differential equations (SDEs) with non-Lipschitz coefficients. To mitigate against numerical instabilities caused by unbounded increments of the Levy noise, we use a deterministic ma
