Abstract: Furthering research on linear multistep hybrid block methods is essential to enhance accuracy, stability, and efficiency in solving ordinary differential equations, enabling advanced modelling of complex systems across science and engineering for better predictive analysis and real-world applications. In this study, an efficient linear multistep hybrid block method with a single-step and seven off-step points for the direct numerical integration of fifth-order initial value problems (IVPs) in ordinary differential equations (ODEs), eliminating the need for reduction to a system of first-order ODEs is proposed. The method is constructed using a collocation approach at both grid and off-grid points, alongside interpolation at five off-grid points, to approximate the solution via a power series polynomial. The resulting system of equations is solved to obtain the necessary discrete and additional formulae that constitute the block approach. A comprehensive theoretical analysis confirms that the method possesses desirable numerical properties, including a well-defined order, zero stability, consistency, convergence, and absolute stability. Comparative numerical experiments against existing methods demonstrate that the proposed approach achieves superior accuracy and efficiency, making it a promising tool for solving both linear and nonlinear fifth-order ODEs.

Abstract: The dynamic mechanism comprising an enzymatic reaction and the diffusion of reactants and products inside a glucose-sensitive composite membrane is described using a mathematical model created by Abdekhodaie and Wu. A set of non-linear steady-state reaction-diffusion equations is presented in this theoretical model. These equations have been meticulously and accurately solved analytically, considering the concentrations of glucose, oxygen, and gluconic acid, using a novel approach of Akbari Ganji and differential transform methods. The high level of agreement between these analytical results and the numerical results for steady-state conditions is a testament to the model's precision. A numerical simulation was produced via the precise and widely used MATLAB software. A comprehensive graphic representation of the model's various kinetic parameters' effects has also been provided. Additionally, a theoretical analysis of the kinetic parameters, such as the maximal reaction velocity (Vmax) and the Michaelis-Menten constants (Kg and Kox) for oxygen and glucose, pH profiles with membranes is presented. This expressed model is incredibly helpful when creating glucose-responsive composite membranes for closed-loop insulin delivery.

Abstract: This work develops mathematical aspects of Conventional Finite Volume schemes for flow problems in porous media governed by discontinuous absolute permeability. Focusing on incompressible one-phase flow problems in heterogeneous porous media, a particular attention is put on the homogenized absolute permeability involved in the discrete Darcy velocity over the “interaction zone” between two adjacent control volumes. The first key-step of our presentation consists in putting in place a discrete-function-space frame-work endowed with inner products and their associated norms. Then after adequate mathematical tools are deployed as projection and interpolation operators with their fundamental properties. A discrete version of the Poincaré-Friedrichs inequality is also established and used to get equivalent discrete norms. Interpolation Operators are used to define cellwise-constant and linear-spline approximate solutions. A discrete variational formulation of the finite volume problem is stated and the Lax-Milgram theorem applies (upon projection operator continuity) to show the well posedness of the discrete variational problem. A first order convergence in L2-norm and in some discrete energy norm has been shown. Sufficient conditions to get higher order convergence rate in L2-norm and in H01-norm have been stated for linear-spline solutions.Abstract: This work develops mathematical aspects of Conventional Finite Volume schemes for flow problems in porous media governed by discontinuous absolute permeability.
