An SIR epidemic model with saturated treatment function and nonlinear pulse vaccination is studied. The existence and stability of the disease-free periodic solution are investigated. The sufficient conditions for the persistence of the disease are obtained. The existence of the transcritical and flip bifurcations is considered by means of the bifurcation theory. The stability of epidemic periodic solutions is discussed. Furthermore, some numerical simulations are given to illustrate our results.

SIR epidemic model with nonlinear pulse vaccination and lifelong immunity is proposed. Due to the limited medical resources, vaccine immunization rate is considered as a nonlinear saturation function. Firstly, by using stroboscopic map and fixed point theory of difference equations, the existence of disease-free periodic solution is discussed, and the globally asymptotical stability of disease-free periodic solution is proven by using Floquet multiplier theory and differential impulsive comparison theorem. Moreover, by using the bifurcation theorem, sufficient condition for the existence of positive periodic solution is obtained by choosing impulsive vaccination period as a bifurcation parameter. Lastly, some simulations are given to validate the theoretical results.

We investigate the stability of an SIR epidemic model with stage structure and time delay. By analyzing the eigenvalues of the corresponding characteristic equation, the local stability of each feasible equilibrium of the model is established. By using comparison arguments, it is proved when the basic reproduction number is less than unity, the disease free equilibrium is globally asymptotically stable. When the basic reproduction number is greater than unity, sufficient conditions are derived for the global stability of an endemic equilibrium of the model. Numerical simulations are carried out to illustrate the theoretical results.

In this thesis we investigate the dynamics and bifurcation of SIR epidemic models with horizontal and vertical transmissions and saturated treatment rate. It is proved that such SIR epidemic models always have positive disease free equilibria and also have three positive epidemic equilibria. The ranges of the parameters related in the model were found under which the equilibria of the models are positive. By applying the qualitative theory of planar systems, it is shown the disease free equilibria is a saddle, stable node and globally asymptotically stable. Furthermore, it is also shown that the interior equilibria are saddle, saddle node or saddle point.

AbstractIn this paper, a discrete-time fractional-order SIR epidemic model with saturated treatment function is investigated. The local asymptotic stability of the equilibrium points is analyzed and the threshold condition basic reproduction number is derived. Backward bifurcation is shown when the model possesses a stable disease-free equilibrium point and a stable endemic point coexisting together when the basic reproduction number is less than unity. It is also shown that when the treatment is partially effective, a transcritical bifurcation occurs at $\Re_{0}=1$ and reappears again when the effect of delayed treatment is getting stronger at $\Re_{0}<1$. The analysis of backward and forward bifurcations associated with the transcritical, saddle-node, period-doubling and Neimark–Sacker bifurcations are discussed. Numerical simulations are carried out to illustrate the complex dynamical behaviors of the model. By carrying out bifurcation analysis, it is shown that the delayed treatment parameter ε should be less than two critical values ε1 and ε2 so as to avoid $\Re_{0}$ belonging to the dangerous range $\left[ \Re_{0},1\right]$. The results of the numerical simulations support the theoretical analysis.

Two different vaccination and treatment strategies in the SIR epidemic model with saturation infectious force are analyzed. With the continuous vaccination and treatment, it is obtained that the disease free equilibrium and endemic equilibrium are globally asymptotically stable by using Lassall theorem and Pioncare–Bendixon trichotomy. Moreover, with pulse vaccination and treatment at different time, the dynamics of the epidemic model is globally investigated by using Floquet theory and comparison theorem of impulsive differential equation and analytic method. We obtain the conditions of global asymptotical stability of the infection-free periodic solution and permanence of the model. Finally, we compare the two different vaccination and treatment strategies, and obtain that the elimination of disease is independent of treatment in the case of the pulse vaccination.

This paper introduces the global dynamics of an SIS model with bilinear incidence rate and saturated treatment function. The treatment function is a continuous and differential function which shows the effect of delayed treatment when the rate of treatment is lower and the number of infected individuals is getting larger. Sufficient conditions for the existence and global asymptotic stability of the disease-free and endemic equilibria are given in this paper. The first Lyapunov coefficient is computed to determine various types of Hopf bifurcation, such as subcritical or supercritical. By some complex algebra, the Bogdanov-Takens normal form and the three types of bifurcation curves are derived. Finally, mathematical analysis and numerical simulations are given to support our theoretical results.
