A mathematical model which includes important components such as undiagnosed infectious, diagnosed infectious, latently infected and lost-sight infectious is formulated. The model combines a frequency dependent and a density dependent force of infection for TB transmission. Through optimal control theory and numerical simulations, a cost-effective balance of two different intervention methods is obtained. Seeking to minimize the amount of money the government spends when tuberculosis remain endemic in the Cameroonian population, Pontryagin's maximum principle is used to characterize the optimal control. The optimality system is derived and solved numerically using the forward-backward sweep method (FBSM). Results provide a framework for designing cost-effective strategies for diseases with multiple intervention methods. It comes out that combining chemoprophylaxis and education, the burden of TB can be reduced by 80 \% in 10 years.}, language = {en} } @misc{DeuflhardHege2015, author = {Deuflhard, Peter and Hege, Hans-Christian}, title = {Raumtiefe in Malerei und Computergrafik}, journal = {R{\"a}ume - Bilder - Kulturen}, editor = {Lepper, Verena and Deuflhard, Peter and Markschies, Christoph}, publisher = {Walter De Gruyter}, isbn = {978-3-11-035993-0}, pages = {33 -- 46}, year = {2015}, abstract = {Einf{\"u}hrung: Die Tiefenwirkung dreidimensionaler R{\"a}ume in einem zweidimensionalen Bild einzufangen, ist ein Faszinosum nahezu aller Kulturen der Menschheitsgeschichte.

In the course of many years of close cooperation with clinics, the medical problem gave rise to quite a number of subtle mathematical problems, part of which had been unsolved when the common project started. Efficiency of numerical algorithms, i.e. computational speed and monitored reliability, play a decisive role for the medical treatment. Off-the-shelf software had turned out to be not sufficient to meet the requirements of medicine. Rather, new mathematical theory as well as new numerical algorithms had to be developed. In order to make our algorithms useful in the clinical environment, new visualization software, a virtual lab, including 3D geometry processing of individual virtual patients had to be designed and implemented. Moreover, before the problems could be attacked by numerical algorithms, careful mathematical modelling had to be done. Finally, parameter identification and constrained optimization for the PDEs had to be newly analyzed and realized over the individual patient's geometry. Our new techniques had an impact on the specificity of the individual patients' treatment and on the construction of an improved hyperthermia applicator.}, language = {en} } @misc{WeiserErdmannDeuflhard2010, author = {Weiser, Martin and Erdmann, Bodo and Deuflhard, Peter}, title = {On Efficiency and Accuracy in Cardioelectric Simulation}, journal = {Progress in Industrial Mathematics at ECMI 2008}, editor = {Wilson, E. and Fitt, A. and Ockendon, H. and Norbury, J.}, publisher = {Springer}, pages = {371 -- 376}, year = {2010}, abstract = {Reasons for the failure of adaptive methods to deliver improved efficiency when integrating monodomain models for myocardiac excitation are discussed.

Box codebooks just like point codebooks indirectly define a Voronoi tessellation of the input space, so that each codebook vector represents a unique set of points. Each box codebook vector comprises a multi-dimensional interval that approximates the related partition of the Voronoi tessellation. Upon using the automated cluster identification method that has recently been developed by the authors, the codebook vectors can be grouped in such a way that each group represents a point cluster in the input space. Since the clustering usually depends on the size of the SOM, one cannot be sure, whether the clustering comes out to be optimal. Refinement of part of the identified clusters would often improve the results. This paper presents the concept of an adaptive multilevel cluster algorithm that performs such refinements automatically. Moreover the paper introduces a concept of essential dimensions and suggests a method for their identification based on our herein suggested box codebooks. Applications of the algorithm to molecular dynamics will be described in a forthcoming paper.}, language = {en} } @misc{SchmidtFrieseZschiedrichetal.2000, author = {Schmidt, Frank and Friese, Tilmann and Zschiedrich, Lin and Deuflhard, Peter}, title = {Adaptive Multigrid Methods for the Vectorial Maxwell Eigenvalue Problem for Optical Waveguide Design}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:0297-zib-6228}, number = {00-54}, year = {2000}, abstract = {This paper has been motivated by the need for a fast robust adaptive multigrid method to solve the vectorial Maxwell eigenvalue problem arising from the design of optical chips. Our nonlinear multigrid methods are based on a previous method for the scalar Helmholtz equation, which must be modified to cope with the null space of the Maxwell operator due to the divergence condition. We present two different approaches. First, we present a multigrid algorithm based on an edge element discretization of time-harmonic Maxwell's equations, including the divergence condition. Second, an explicit elimination of longitudinal magnetic components leads to a nodal discretization known to avoid discrete \emph{spurious modes} also and a vectorial eigenvalue problem, for which we present a multigrid solver. Numerical examples show that the edge element discretization clearly outperforms the nodal element approach.}, language = {en} } @misc{FischerSchuetteDeuflhardetal.2001, author = {Fischer, Alexander and Sch{\"u}tte, Christof and Deuflhard, Peter and Cordes, Frank}, title = {Hierarchical Uncoupling-Coupling of Metastable Conformations}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:0297-zib-6296}, number = {01-03}, year = {2001}, abstract = {Uncoupling-coupling Monte Carlo (UCMC) combines uncoupling techniques for finite Markov chains with Markov chain Monte Carlo methodology. UCMC aims at avoiding the typical metastable or trapping behavior of Monte Carlo techniques. From the viewpoint of Monte Carlo, a slowly converging long-time Markov chain is replaced by a limited number of rapidly mixing short-time ones. Therefore, the state space of the chain has to be hierarchically decomposed into its metastable conformations. This is done by means of combining the technique of conformation analysis as recently introduced by the authors, and appropriate annealing strategies. We present a detailed examination of the uncoupling-coupling procedure which uncovers its theoretical background, and illustrates the hierarchical algorithmic approach. Furthermore, application of the UCMC algorithm to the \$n\$-pentane molecule allows us to discuss the effect of its crucial steps in a typical molecular scenario.}, language = {en} } @misc{EhrigOfenlochSchaberetal.2001, author = {Ehrig, Rainald and Ofenloch, Oliver and Schaber, Karlheinz and Deuflhard, Peter}, title = {Modelling and Simulation of Aerosol Formation by Heterogeneous Nucleation in Gas-Liquid Contact Devices}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:0297-zib-6416}, number = {01-15}, year = {2001}, abstract = {This paper describes a new simulation tool for the prediction of aerosol formation and behavior in gas--liquid contact devices such as absorbers, scrubbers, quench coolers, and condensers as well as multistage gas cleaning processes, respectively. Aerosol formation can impact severely the separation efficiency of gas cleaning processes. Aerosol or fog formation can arise by spontaneous condensation or desublimation in supersaturated gas phases. The rigorous description of the mass and energy transfer between the gas phase, the liquid phase, and the growing aerosol droplets leads to a system of partial differential and algebraic equations. For the solution of these systems we have developed the plant simulation tool AerCoDe. This program bases upon the linearly--implicit Euler discretisation, which in combination with extrapolation permits an adaptive step size and order control. Typical simulation results of a multistage industrial flue gas scrubbing process are presented. It is shown, that experimental data can be confirmed if the number concentration of condensation nuclei as an input parameter is roughly known.}, language = {en} }
