Numerical solutions for the two-dimensional reaction-diffusion equation with nonlocal nonlinearity are obtained. The solutions reveal formation of dissipative structures. Structures arising from initial distributions with one and several centers of localization are considered. Formation of extending circular structures is shown. Peculiarities of formation and interaction of extending circular structures depending on  nonlocal interaction are considered.

An introduction to the models of cellular automata is given. The three automata described on the plane are: Viner-Rosenbluth cellular automata, the game of Life and Kohomoto-Oono automata for modelling «reaction-diffusion» systems. There is built the generalization of cellular automata of the game of Life to arbitrary dimension of space and the generalization of Kohomoto-Oono automata in 3D.

In this paper we present a mathematical model and numerical results on a propagation of the combustion front of the SHS compound, where the rate of chemical reaction at each point of the SHS sample is determined by solving the problem of diffusion and chemical reaction in the reaction cell. We obtained the dependence of the combustion front on the size of the average element of a heterogeneous structure with different values of the diffusion intensity. These dependences agree qualitatively with the experimental data. We studied the effect of activation energy for diffusion on the propagation velocity of combustion front. It is revealed the propagation of the combustion front transforms to an oscillatory regime at increase in activation energy of diffusion. A transition boundary of the combustion front propagation from the steady-state regime to the oscillatory one is defined.

In the paper we construct the adjoint problem for the explicit and implicit parabolic quazi-linear grid boundary-value problems with one spatial variable; the coefficients of the problems depend on the solution at the same time and earlier times. Dependence on the history of the solution is via the state vector; its evolution is described by the differential equation. Many models of diffusion mass transport are reduced to such boundary-value problems. Having solutions to the direct and adjoint problems, one can obtain the exact value of the gradient of a functional in the space of parameters the problem also depends on. We present solving algorithms, including the parallel one.

In the paper we consider the inverse problem of evaluating kinetic parameters of the model of dehydriding of metal powder using experimental data. The «blind search» in the space of parameters revealed multiple physically reasonable solutions. The solutions were obtained using high–performance computational modeling based on BOINC–grid.

The aim of this article is to study the discrete mathematical model of transport network dynamics, recently built by author. The study showed some drawbacks of the basic model and the ways of overcoming these drawbacks, and an improved version of the model was proposed. Simulation systems, created on the basis of this new model were used to do test calculations similar to those previously done with the help of the basic model. The results of these calculations with both models are compared.

The work deals the implementation of a three-dimensional mathematical model of the nonlinear time-varying temperature control and a numerical method of solving it.

We study the motion and destruction of Chelyabinsk meteoroid using simple physical and mathematical models. We evaluate the parameters of the motion, taking into account the ablation and mechanical destruction of the meteoroid, and compare our results to the observation data.

The paper provides a review of the existing methods of signals’ processing within the conditions of the Rice statistical model applicability. There are considered the principle development directions, the existing limitations and the improvement possibilities concerning the methods of solving the tasks of noise suppression and analyzed signals’ filtration by the example of magnetic-resonance visualization. A conception of a new approach to joint calculation of Rician signal’s both parameters has been developed based on the method of moments in two variants of its implementation. The computer simulation and the comparative analysis of the obtained numerical results have been conducted.

Mathematical simulation of natural convection and surface radiation in a square air enclosure having isothermal vertical walls with a local heat source of constant temperature has been carried out. Mathematical model has been formulated on the basis of the dimensionless variables such as stream function, vorticity and temperature by using the Boussinesq approximation and diathermancy of air. Distributions of streamlines and isotherms reflecting an effect of Rayleigh number $ 10^3 \leqslant Ra \leqslant 10^6 $, surface emissivity $0 \leqslant ε < 1$, ratio between the length of heat source and the size of enclosure $0.2 \leqslant l/L \leqslant 0.6$ and dimensionless time $0 \leqslant τ \leqslant 100$ on fluid flow and heat transfer have been obtained. Correlations for the average heat transfer coefficient in dependence on $Ra$, $ε$ and $l/L$ have been ascertained.
