Abstract

The work presents an analysis of solutions to a free boundary value problem for a multispecies biofilm growth model in one space dimension. The mathematical model consists of a system of nonlinear partial differential equations and a free boundary. It is quite general and can include a large variety of special situations. An existence and uniqueness theorem is discussed and properties of solutions are given. As a numerical application, simulations for a heterotrophic–autotrophic competition are developed by the method of characteristics.
