The paper constructs and studies a generalized model describing two-component systems of reaction – diffusion type with power nonlinearity, considering the influence of external noise. A methodology has been developed for analyzing the generalized model, which includes linear stability analysis, nonlinear stability analysis, and numerical simulation of the system’s evolution. The linear analysis technique uses basic approaches, in which the characteristic equation is obtained using a linearization matrix. Nonlinear stability analysis realized up to third-order moments inclusively. For this, the functions describing the dynamics of the components are expanded in Taylor series up to third-order terms. Then, using the Novikov theorem, the averaging procedure is carried out. As a result, the obtained equations form an infinite hierarchically subordinate structure, which must be truncated at some point. To achieve this, contributions from terms higher than the third order are neglected in both the equations themselves and during the construction of the moment equations. The resulting equations form a set of linear equations, from which the stability matrix is constructed. This matrix has a rather complex structure, making it solvable only numerically. For the numerical study of the system’s evolution, the method of variable directions was chosen. Due to the presence of a stochastic component in the analyzed system, the method was modified such that random fields with a specified distribution and correlation function, responsible for the noise contribution to the overall nonlinearity, are generated across entire layers. The developed methodology was tested on the reaction – diffusion model proposed by Barrio et al., according to the results of the study, they showed the similarity of the obtained structures with the pigmentation of fish. This paper focuses on the system behavior analysis in the neighborhood of a non-zero stationary point. The dependence of the real part of the eigenvalues on the wavenumber has been examined. In the linear analysis, a range of wavenumber values is identified in which Turing instability occurs. Nonlinear analysis and numerical simulation of the system’s evolution are conducted for model parameters that, in contrast, lie outside the Turing instability region. Nonlinear analysis found noise intensities of additive noise for which, despite the absence of conditions for the emergence of diffusion instability, the system transitions to an unstable state. The results of the numerical simulation of the evolution of the tested model demonstrate the process of forming spatial structures of Turing type under the influence of additive noise.

This paper examines the impact of the spatial resolution of a discretized (lattice) representation of the environment on the efficiency and correctness of optimal pathfinding in complex environments. Scenarios are considered that may include bottlenecks, non-uniform obstacle distributions, and areas of increased safety requirements in the immediate vicinity of obstacles. Despite the widespread use of lattice representations of the environment in robotics due to their compatibility with sensor data and support for classical trajectory planning algorithms, the resolution of these lattices has a significant impact on both goal reachability and optimal path performance. An algorithm is proposed that combines environmental connectivity analysis, trajectory optimization, and geometric safety refinement. In the first stage, the Leath algorithm is used to estimate the reachability of the target point by identifying a connected component containing the starting position. Upon confirmation of the target point’s reachability, the A* algorithm is applied to the nodes of this component in the second stage to construct a path that simultaneously minimizes both the path length and the risk of collision. In the third stage, a refined obstacle distance estimate is performed for nodes located in safety zones using a combination of the Gilbert – Johnson –Keerthi (GJK) and expanding polyhedron (EPA) algorithms. Experimental analysis revealed a nonlinear relationship between the probability of the existence and effectiveness of an optimal path and the lattice parameters. Specifically, reducing the spatial resolution of the lattice increases the likelihood of connectivity loss and target unreachability, while increasing its spatial resolution increases computational complexity without a proportional improvement in the optimal path’s performance.

With the data obtained by hydrobiological monitoring of water objects of Don river for many years (1978-1988) calculation of rank distribution parameters and indexes of dominance for phytoplankton species abundance was conducted. The borders of investigated characteristics are calculated. They correspond to borders of ecological well-being - trouble conditions of phytoplankton communities. Ecologically tolerable levels for the core abiotic factors are found. Contribution of each of analyzed factors to a degree of ecological trouble is established.

We consider two possible computational methods of the interpretation of experimental data obtained by means of the magnetic force microscopy. These methods of macrospin distribution simulation and reconstruction can be used for research of magnetization reversal processes of nanodots in ordered 2D arrays of nanodots. New approaches to the development of high-performance superscale algorithms for parallel executing on a supercomputer clusters for solving direct and inverse task of the modeling of magnetic states, types of ordering, reversal processes of nanosystems with a collective behavior are proposed. The simulation results are consistent with experimental results.

The dynamics of coupled elements’ ensembles are investigated in the context of description of spatio-temporal processes in the myocardium. Basic element is map-based model constructed by simplification and reduction of Luo-Rudy model. In particular, capabilities of the model in replication of different regimes of cardiac activity are shown, including excitable and oscillatory regimes. The dynamics of 1D and 2D lattices of coupled oscillatory elements with a random distribution of individual frequencies are considered. Effects of cluster synchronization and transition to global synchronization by increasing of coupling strength are discussed. Impulse propagation in the chain of excitable cells has been observed. Analysis of 2D lattice of excitable elements with target and spiral waves have been made. The characteristics of the spiral wave has been analyzed in depending on the individual parameters of the map and coupling strength between elements of the lattice. A study of mixed ensembles consisting of excitable and oscillatory elements with a gradient changing of the properties have been made, including the task for description of normal and pathological activity of the sinoatrial node.

We study the centrally symmetric mathematical model of electrodiffusion. This model describes in particular the transport of the Li⁺ ions in certain electrochemical current sources. We demonstrate that the steady state solution of the considered model exists and is unique if the boundary values of the ion concentration and electric potential are given. This solution also proves to be the stable attractor of the time-dependent solutions with different initial value distributions.

This paper presents a model mixture of probability distributions of signal and noise. Typically, when analyzing the data under conditions of uncertainty it is necessary to use nonparametric tests. However, such an analysis of nonstationary data in the presence of uncertainty on the mean of the distribution and its parameters may be ineffective. The model involves the implementation of a case of a priori non-parametric uncertainty in the processing of the signal at a time when the separation of signal and noise are related to different general population, is feasible.

On the basis of the MGD equations we consider 2D- and 3D- nonstationary problems about the evolution of perturbations in the lower atmosphere and the Earth’s ionosphere which are caused by the movement of large meteoroids along gently sloping paths of the entry with the simulation of their destruction by the momentary increase of the midship at the point of the pressure head maximum. According to the results of our numerical investigation we obtain and analyze the detailed spatial-temporal distributions of the main parameters of the plasma flows from which in particular a number of phenomena that are similar to those seen in the Chelyabinsk phenomenon follow.

Work is devoted to modeling instrumental errors of a laser beam diameter measurement using a method based on a lambertian transmissive screen. Super-Lorenz distribution was used as a model of the beam. To determine the effect of each parameter on the measurement error were performed computational experiments, results of which were approximated by analytic functions. There were obtained the errors depending on relative beam size, spatial non-uniformity of the transmission screen, lens distortion, physical vignetting, beam tilt, CCD spatial resolution, ADC resolution of a camera. There was shown that the error can be less then 1 %.
