Impulsive control in a stage structure population model with birth pulses

The dynamical behavior of a stage structure population model with birth pulses and impulsive pest management strategy is discussed analytically and numerically. It is assumed that birth pulse and impulsive pest management strategy act with the same period, but not simultaneously. The existence and stability of the positive 2T-period solution are investigated. By using center manifold theorem and bifurcation theorem, the conditions of existence for flip bifurcation are derived. Moreover, some detailed numerical results for phase portraits, periodic solutions, bifurcation diagram, and chaotic attractors, which are illustrated with two examples, are in good agreement with the theoretical analysis.
