主讲人介绍：

    Dr. Priti Kumar Roy is a Professor of Jadavpur University in the Department of Mathematics. He is proficient in nonlinear system dynamics and an expert in mathematical modeling. He research mainly on infectious diseases like HIV, Cutaneous Leishmaniasis, Filariasis and auto immune disease like Psoriasis. Apart from epidemiology, he also research on Industrial mathematics on production of biodiesel from Jatropha curcus plant and its oil production optimization. Furthermore, he also research on ecological modelling of some important ecological and environmental issues. He has published over 80 peer reviewed publications in International and national journals on his research topics. Prof. Roy edited one book “Insight and Control of Infectious Disease in Global Scenario” published by Intech Publishers and is the author of Springer entitled “Mathematical Models for therapeutic approaches to control HIV disease transmission” published this year. He had guided six Ph.D students and eight more scholars are working under his guidance. He also have a post doc fellow working with him. He is first person to supervise a thesis on mathematical models of Psoriasis. He is an eminent member in different National and International Societies like Biomathematical Society of India (BMSI), International Association of Engineers (IAENG), European Society of Clinical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases (ESCMID) and European Society for Mathematical and Theoretical Biology (ESMTB). He has completed six research projects as Principal Investigator, sponsored by various Government of India. Prof. Roy was awarded the Best Paper Award in World Congress on Engineering 2010 held in London, UK. He was selected as an Indian Scientist under International Collaboration/Exchange Program 2011-2012 and again in 2016 awarded by INSA. He was also awarded with “Siksha Ratan” award in 2012. . Prof. Roy delivered invited lectures in more than 20 overseas Universities & Institutes across Europe, Asia, America and numerous lectures in Indian Universities.

内容介绍：

    Biodiesel is one of promising renewable energy and used as an alternative of conventional mineral fuels. Jatropha curcas plant is the most cost effective sources of biodiesel. The plant can be cultivated in wastelands and grows on almost any type of territory, even on sandy and saline soils. However, the plant is affected by different pests that causes crop damages and hamper maximum production of seeds. Judicious agricultural practices and effective crop management of Jatropha curcas is preliminary requisite to get maximum yield of oil. We study the control of pests through biopesticides and chemical insecticides simultaneously, which destroys pests quickly and results in maximum seeds to obtain oil from which the biodiesel is produced. Application of bio-pesticides is a costly as well as time dependent process but it is ecologically safer. Our model is developed with a view to maximize the cost benefit in response to the managerial operations applied. Taking account of the ecological management of the pests in farming of Jatropha plant and incorporating the industrial production of biodiesel from its fruits we have developed some mathematical models to study and predict how we can maximize our oil production integrating the ecological and industrial management with our mathematical perceptive. Our numerical and analytical results provide an idea of the cost effective biodiesel production, which satisfies our hypothesis.
