A generalized chikungunya virus (CHIKV) infection model with nonlinear incidence functions and two time delays is proposed and investigated. The model takes into account both modes of transmission that are virus-to-cell infection and cell-to-cell transmission. Furthermore, the local and global stabilities of the disease-free equilibrium and the chronic infection equilibrium are established by using the linearization and Lyapunov functional methods. Moreover, the existence of Hopf bifurcation is also analyzed. Finally, an application is presented in order to support the analytical results.

International audience In this work, we propose a mathematical model to describe the dynamics of the hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection by taking into account the cure of infected cells, the export of precursor cytotoxic T lympho-cytes (CTL) cells from the thymus and both modes of transmission that are the virus-to-cell infection and the cell-to-cell transmission. The local stability of the disease-free equilibrium and the chronic infection equilibrium is obtained via characteristic equations. Furthermore, the global stability of both equilibria is established by using two techniques, the direct Lyapunov method for the disease-free equilibrium and the geometrical approach for the chronic infection equilibrium. Dans ce travail, nous proposons un modèle mathématique pour décrire la dynamique du virus d'hépatite B (HBV) en prenant en compte le taux de guérison de cellules infectées, l'exportation de précurseur cytotoxic des lymphocytes T (CTL) des cellules du thymus et les deux modes de transmission qui sont l'infection virus-à-cellule et la transmission cellule-à-cellule.La stabilité locale de l'équilibre libre et l'équilibre d'infection chronique est obtenue via des équations caractéristiques. En outre, la stabilité globale des deux équilibres est établie en utilisant deux techniques, la méthode directe de Lyapunov pour l'équilibre libre et l'approche géométrique pour l'équilibre d'infection chronique.

We propose a generalized virus dynamics model with distributed delays and both modes of transmission, one by virus-to-cell infection and the other by cell-to-cell transfer. In the proposed model, the distributed delays describe (i) the time needed for infected cells to produce new virions and (ii) the time necessary for the newly produced virions to become mature and infectious. In addition, the infection transmission process is modeled by general incidence functions for both modes. Furthermore, the qualitative analysis of the model is rigorously established and many known viral infection models with discrete and distributed delays are extended and improved.

In this paper, we formulate a generalized hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection model with two modes of infection transmission and adaptive immunity, and investigate its dynamical properties. Both the virus-to-cell and cell-to-cell infection transmissions are modeled by general functions which satisfy some biologically motivated assumptions. Furthermore, the model incorporates three distributed time delays for the production of active infected hepatocytes, mature capsids and virions. The well-posedness of the proposed model is established by showing the non-negativity and boundedness of solu- tions. Five equilibria of the model are identified in terms of five threshold parameters R0, R1, R2, R3 and R4. Further, the global stability analysis of each equilibrium under certain conditions is carried out by employing suitable Lyapunov function and LaSalle’s invariance principle. Finally, we present an example with numerical simulations to il- lustrate the applicability of our study. Nonetheless, the results obtained in this study are valid for a wide class of HBV infection models.

In this article, we examine the dynamics of a Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) infection model with two routes of infection. The model uses four categories, namely, uninfected cells, infected cells, the CHIKV virus, and antibodies. The equilibrium points of the model, which consist of the free point for the CHIKV and CHIKV endemic point, are first analytically determined. Next, the local stability of the equilibrium points is studied, based on the basic reproduction number (R0) obtained by the next-generation matrix. From the analysis, it is found that the disease-free point is locally asymptotically stable if R0≤1, and the CHIKV endemic point is locally asymptotically stable if R0>1. Using the Lyapunov method, the global stability analysis of the steady-states confirms the local stability results. We then describe our design of an optimal recruitment strategy to minimize the number of infected cells, as well as a nonlinear optimal control problem. Some numerical simulations are provided to visualize the analytical results obtained.

In this paper, we propose and investigate a diffusive viral infection model with distributed delays and cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) immune response. Also, both routes of infection that are virus-to-cell infection and cell-to-cell transmission are modeled by two general nonlinear incidence functions. The well-posedness of the proposed model is also proved by establishing the global existence, uniqueness, nonnegativity and boundedness of solutions. Moreover, the threshold parameters and the global asymptotic stability of equilibria are obtained. Furthermore, diffusive and delayed virus dynamics models presented in many previous studies are improved and generalized.
