We propose a combined semi-discretized spectral matrix collocation algorithm to solve this system of PDEs. The first part of the algorithm deals with the time-marching procedure, which is performed using the well-known Taylor series formula. The resulting linear systems of ordinary differential equations (ODEs) are then solved using the spectral matrix collocation technique based on the novel Touchard family of polynomials. We discuss and establish the error analysis and convergence of the proposed method. Additionally, we examine the stability analysis and the equilibrium points of the model to determine the stability condition for the system. We perform numerical simulations using diverse model parameters and with different Dirichlet and Neumann boundary conditions to demonstrate the utility and applicability of our combined Taylor-Touchard spectral collocation algorithm.</p></abstract>
