The spreading behavior of new or invasive species is a central topic in ecology. The modelings of free boundary problems are widely studied to better understand the nature of spreading behavior of new species. From mathematical modeling point of view, it is a challenge to perform numerical simulations of free boundary problems, due to the moving boundary, the stiffness of the system and topological changes. In this work, we design numerical methods to investigate the spreading behavior of new… 

Numerical Methods for a Two-Species Competition-Diffusion Model with Free Boundaries

A front tracking method coupled with an implicit solver for the 1D model and a level set approach to handle the moving boundaries to efficiently treat complicated topological changes are introduced.

Integration factor combined with level set method for reaction-diffusion systems with free boundary in high spatial dimensions

This paper rewrite all ETD schemes into a linear combination of specific φ -functions and apply one start-of-the-art algorithm to compute the matrix-vector multiplications, which provides computational advantages with adaptive Krylov subspaces and extends this method by incorporating the level set method to solve the free boundary problem.

Spreading-Vanishing Dichotomy in the Diffusive Logistic Model with a Free Boundary

A spreading-vanishing dichotomy is proved for this diffusive logistic model, namely the species either successfully spreads to all the new environment and stabilizes at a positive equilibrium state, or it fails to establish and dies out in the long run.

Compact integration factor methods in high spatial dimensions

This method combines the advantages of cFDM and cIIF methods to improve the accuracy without increasing the computational cost and reducing the stability range and is proved that the proposed method is asymptotically stable for the linear case.

Spreading and vanishing in nonlinear diffusion problems with free boundaries

We study nonlinear diffusion problems of the form $u_t=u_{xx}+f(u)$ with free boundaries. Such problems may be used to describe the spreading of a biological or chemical species, with the free

This paper is concerned with the mathematical structure of the immersed boundary (IB) method, which is intended for the computer simulation of fluid–structure interaction, especially in biological

Two-Dimensional Front Tracking Based on High Resolution Wave Propagation Methods

We present a fully conservative, high resolution approach to front tracking for nonlinear systems of conservation laws in two space dimensions. An underlying uniform Cartesian grid is used, with some

Spreading speed revisited: Analysis of a free boundary model

This work derives the free boundary condition by considering a "population loss" at the spreading front, and corrects some mistakes regarding the range of spreading speed in [11].
