Hopf bifurcation analysis for the model of the chemostat with one species of organism (Q370246): Difference between revisions

Summary: We consider the dynamics of the chemostat model with time delay. The conclusion confirms that a Hopf bifurcation occurs due to the existence of stability switches when the delay varies. By using normal form theory and the center manifold method, we derive the explicit formulas determining the stability and direction of bifurcating periodic solutions. Finally, some numerical simulations are given to illustrate the effectiveness of our results.
