Age Structured

An age-structured epidemiological model for the disease transmission dynamics of TB is studied. We show that the infection-free steady state is locally and globally asymptotically stable if the basic reproductive number is below one, and in this case, the disease always dies out. We prove that the endemic steady state exists when the basic reproductive number is above one. In addition, the endemic steady state is globally asymptotically stable if the basic reproductive number is above one and death rate due to TB is zero.

Based on a multi-scale view, in this paper, we study an age-structured within-host model with Crowley–Martin functional response for the control of viral infections. By means of semigroup and Lyapunov function, the global asymptotical property of infected steady state of the model is obtained. The results show that when the basic reproductive number falls below unity, the infection dies out. However, when the basic reproductive number exceeds unity, there exists a unique positive equilibrium which is globally asymptotically stable. This model can be deduced to different viral models with or without time delay.

We present an SEIS epidemic model with infective force in both latent period and infected period, which has different general saturation incidence rates. It is shown that the global dynamics are completely determined by the basic reproductive number R0. If R0≤1, the disease-free equilibrium is globally asymptotically stable in T by LaSalle’s Invariance Principle, and the disease dies out. Moreover, using the method of autonomous convergence theorem, we obtain that the unique epidemic equilibrium is globally asymptotically stable in T0, and the disease spreads to be endemic.

A mathematical model of human T-cell lymphotropic virus type 1 in vivo with cell-to-cell infection and mitosis is formulated and studied. The basic reproductive numberR0is derived. It is proved that the dynamics of the model can be determined completely by the magnitude ofR0. The infection-free equilibrium is globally asymptotically stable (unstable) ifR0<1  (R0>1). There exists a chronic infection equilibrium and it is globally asymptotically stable ifR0>1.

Hbv Model

In this paper, a hepatitis B virus (HBV) model with spatial diffusion and age of infection is investigated. By analyzing the corresponding characteristic equations, the local stabilities of an infected steady state and an uninfected steady state are discussed. Furthermore, it is proved that if the basic reproductive number is less than unity, the uninfected steady state is globally asymptotically stable. Numerical simulations are carried out to illustrate the main results.

AbstractCholera is a waterborne disease that continues to pose serious public health problems in many developing countries. Increasing water and sanitation coverage is a goal for local authorities in these countries, as it can eliminate one of the root causes of cholera transmission. The SIWDR (susceptible–infected–water–dumpsite–recovered) model is proposed here to evaluate the effects of the improved coverage of water and sanitation services in a community at risk of a cholera outbreak. This paper provides a mathematical study of the dynamics of the water and sanitation (WatSan) deficits and their public health impact in a community. The theoretical analysis of the SIWDR model gave a certain threshold value (known as the basic reproductive number and denoted $\mathcal{R}_{0}$ R 0 ) to stop the transmission of cholera. It was found that the disease-free equilibrium was globally asymptotically stable whenever $\mathcal{R}_{0} \leq 1$ R 0 ≤ 1 . The unique endemic equilibrium was globally asymptotically stable whenever $\mathcal{R}_{0} >1$ R 0 > 1 . Sensitivity analysis was performed to determine the relative importance of model parameters to disease transmission and prevention. The numerical simulation results, using realistic parameter values in describing cholera transmission in Haiti, showed that improving the drinking water supply, wastewater and sewage treatment, and solid waste disposal services would be effective strategies for controlling the transmission pathways of this waterborne disease.

Spatial Movement

To understand the effects of animal movement on transmission and control of brucellosis infection, a reaction diffusion partial differential equation (PDE) brucellosis model that incorporates wild and domesticated animals under homogeneous Neumann boundary conditions is proposed and analysed. We computed the reproductive number for the brucellosis model in the absence of spatial movement and we established that, the associated model has a globally asymptotically stable disease-free equilibrium whenever the reproductive number is less or equal to unity. However, if the reproductive number is greater than unity an endemic equilibrium point which is globally asymptotically stable exists. We performed sensitivity analysis on the key parameters that drive the disease dynamics in order to determine their relative importance to disease transmission and prevalence. For the model with spatial movement the disease threshold is studied by using the basic reproductive number. Additionally we investigate the existence of a Turing stability and travelling waves. Our results shows that incorporating diffusive spatial spread does not produce a Turing instability when the reproductive number R0ODE  associated with the ODE model is less than unity. Finally the results suggest that minimizing interaction between buffalo and cattle population can be essential to manage brucellosis spillover between domesticated and wildlife animals. Numerical simulations are carried out to support analytical findings.

We investigate the global dynamics of an HIV infection model with two classes of target cells and multiple distributed intracellular delays. The model is a 5-dimensional nonlinear delay ODEs that describes the interaction of the HIV with two classes of target cells, CD4+T cells and macrophages. The incidence rate of infection is given by saturation functional response. The model has two types of distributed time delays describing time needed for infection of target cell and virus replication. This model can be seen as a generalization of several models given in the literature describing the interaction of the HIV with one class of target cells, CD4+T cells. Lyapunov functionals are constructed to establish the global asymptotic stability of the uninfected and infected steady states of the model. We have proven that if the basic reproduction numberR0is less than unity then the uninfected steady state is globally asymptotically stable, and ifR0>1then the infected steady state exists and it is globally asymptotically stable.

The Basic Reproduction Number

In this paper, the global properties of a mathematical modeling of hepatitis C virus (HCV) with distributed time delays is studied. Lyapunov functionals are constructed to establish the global asymptotic stability of the uninfected and infected steady states. It is shown that if the basic reproduction number [Formula: see text] is less than unity, then the uninfected steady state is globally asymptotically stable. If the basic reproduction number [Formula: see text] is larger than unity, then the infected steady state is globally asymptotically stable.

The Basic Reproduction Number

In this paper, a susceptible-vaccinated-exposed-infectious-recovered epidemic model with waning immunity and continuous age structures in vaccinated, exposed and infectious classes has been formulated. By using the Fluctuation lemma and the approach of Lyapunov functionals, we establish a threshold dynamics completely determined by the basic reproduction number. When the basic reproduction number is less than one, the disease-free steady state is globally asymptotically stable, and otherwise the endemic steady state is globally asymptotically stable.

Abstract An SVIR epidemic model with continuous age structure in the susceptibility, vaccination effects and relapse is proposed. The asymptotic smoothness, existence of a global attractor, the stability of equilibria and persistence are addressed. It is shown that if the basic reproductive number $\Re_0&lt;1$, then the disease-free equilibrium is globally asymptotically stable. If $\Re_0&gt;1$, the disease is uniformly persistent, and a Lyapunov functional is used to show that the unique endemic equilibrium is globally asymptotically stable. Combined effects of susceptibility age, vaccination age and relapse age on the basic reproductive number are discussed.
