Description
Summary:In this paper using a mathematical model of the so-called "space-dynamic" approach we investigate the problem of development and temporal dynamics of different urban population groups. For simplicity, we consider an interaction of only two population groups inside a single urban area with axial symmetry. This problem can be described qualitatively by a system of two non-stationary nonlinear differential equations of the diffusion type with boundary conditions of the third type. The results of numerical simulations show that with a suitable choice of the diffusion coefficients and interaction functions between different population groups we can receive different scenarios of population dynamics: from complete displacement of one population group by another (originally more "aggressive") to the "peaceful" situation of co-existence of them together.
