Unlike linear and exponential growth, logistic growth behaves differently if the populations grow steadily throughout the year or if they have one breeding time per year. The recursive formula provided above models generational growth, where there is one breeding time per year (or, at lea...

could be the number of milligrams of bacteria in a particular beaker for a biology experiment, or P(t) could be the number of people in a particular country at a time t. A model of population growth tells plausible rules for how such a population changes over time. The simplest model...
Specifically, we first obtain an explicit formula μ0=μ0(n,d1,d2,α,χ) for the logistic damping rate μ such that the system has no blow-ups whenever μ>μ0. In particular, for Ω⊂R3, we get a clean formula for μ0: This offers a quantized effect of the logistic source on...

The logis- tic model is used for population growth modeling. Given a population with proliferation capability, with an initial size of P0, one would obviously think that the size of the popula- tion will infinitely increase when the time approaches infinity. However, it has been proven by ...

In the classical delay logistic equationN′(t)=rN(t)1-N(t-τ)K,t⩾0,the per capita growth rate r(t)=N′(t)/N(t) is given by r[1-N(t-τ)/K], where N(t) denotes the density of the population at time t,r is the growth rate and K is the carrying capacity of the ...
