Modeling, analysis of inverse problems and numerical simulation for microbial processes(Division of Biological and Human Environment)

Outline: Bacteria or fungi grow under sufficient supply of polymer as a carbon source, decrease under insufficient supply, and diminish when the carbon source is exhausted. When a poultry farm is contaminated with bird flu, viruses spread in a poultry farm using domestic birds as hosts. The virus population decreases when an appropriate removal of the infected hosts is conducted, and the disease is cleared from the firm when a sufficient removal of the infected birds is conducted. The processes between microorganism and external factors are modeled, and the validity of the models is verified through analysis and numerical simulation.
