    Agreement between the Homotopy Perturbation Method and Variation Iterational Method on the Analysis of One-Dimensional Flow Incorporating First Order Decay
    (SCHOOL OF PHYSICAL SCIENCES, FEDERAL UNIVERSITY OF TECHNOLOGY, MINNA, 2019-06-28) JIMOH, OMANANYI RAZAQ; Aiyesimi, Y. M.; Jiya, M.
    In this paper, a comparative study of reactive contaminant flow for constant initial concentration in one dimension is presented. The adsorption term is modeled by Freudlich Isotherm. An approximation of the one-dimensional contaminant flow model was obtained using homotopy-perturbation transformation and the resulting linear equations were solved semi-analytically by homotopyperturbation method (HPM) and Variational Iteration Method (VIM). Graphs were plotted using the solution obtained from the methods and the results presented and discussed. The analysis of the results obtained show that the concentration of the contaminant decreases with time and distance as it moves away from the origin.

    Mathematical Modeling of Algae Population Dynamics on the Surface of Water
    (2019-11-12) Abdurrahman, O. N.; Akinwande, N. I.; Somma, Samuel Abu
    The paper presented an analytical solution of the exponential growth model of algae population dynamics on the water surface. The Computer Symbolic Algebraic Package, MAPLE is used to simulate the graphical profiles of the population with time while varying the parameters, such as diffusion and rate of change of algae density, governing the subsistence or extinction of the water organisms.
