Wonder why babies nap on some days but not on others? Or why older people wake up earlier? Mathematical modelling of sleep regulation provides some surprising answers to these and other questions, according to a new study from the University of Surrey.
In a paper published in Biological Timing and Sleep, researchers analyzed the mathematical structure of the two-process model (2PM) of sleep regulation, which was first proposed in the 1980s. The 2PM explains how our sleep patterns are shaped by two factors – a pressure to sleep that builds the longer we are awake and diminishes during sleep, and the near 24-hour rhythm of our internal body clock.
Surrey’s research team used maths to show how the 2PM reflects what happens in the…
