We present in this research work, mathematical modeling of the transmission dynamics of measles using treatment as a control measure. We determined the Disease Free Equilibrium (DFE) point of the model after which we obtained the Basic Reproduction Number ( R0 ) of the model using the next generation approach. The model Endemic Equilibrium (EE) point was also determined after which we performed Local Stability Analysis(LAS) of the Disease Free Equilibrium point and result shows that the Disease Free Equilibrium point of the model would be stable if ( R0 <1). Global Stability Analysis (GAS) result shows that, ( R0 ≤ 1) remains the necessary and sufficient condition for the infection to go into extinction from a population. We carried out Sensitivity Analysis of the model using the Basic Reproduction Number and we discovered that ( δ , μ, ν , θ ) are sensitive parameters that should be targeted towards control intervention strategy as an increase in these values can reduce the value of ( R0 ) to a value less than unity and such can reduce the spread of measles in a population. Model simulation was carried out using mat lab software to support our analytical results.

This paper investigates a susceptible-exposed-infectious-recovered (SEIR) epidemic model with demography under two vaccination effort strategies. Firstly, the model is investigated under vaccination of newborns, which is fact in a direct action on the recruitment level of the model. Secondly, it is investigated under a periodic impulsive vaccination on the susceptible in the sense that the vaccination impulses are concentrated in practice in very short time intervals around a set of impulsive time instants subject to constant inter-vaccination periods. Both strategies can be adapted, if desired, to the time-varying levels of susceptible in the sense that the control efforts be increased as those susceptible levels increase. The model is discussed in terms of suitable properties like the positivity of the solutions, the existence and allocation of equilibrium points, and stability concerns related to the values of the basic reproduction number. It is proven that the basic reproduction number lies below unity, so that the disease-free equilibrium point is asymptotically stable for larger values of the disease transmission rates under vaccination controls compared to the case of absence of vaccination. It is also proven that the endemic equilibrium point is not reachable if the disease-free one is stable and that the disease-free equilibrium point is unstable if the reproduction number exceeds unity while the endemic equilibrium point is stable. Several numerical results are investigated for both vaccination rules with the option of adapting through ime the corresponding efforts to the levels of susceptibility. Such simulation examples are performed under parameterizations related to the current SARS-COVID 19 pandemic.

The statistical data of monthly pulmonary tuberculosis (TB) incidence cases from January 2004 to December 2012 show the seasonality fluctuations in Shaanxi of China. A seasonality TB epidemic model with periodic varying contact rate, reactivation rate, and disease-induced death rate is proposed to explore the impact of seasonality on the transmission dynamics of TB. Simulations show that the basic reproduction number of time-averaged autonomous systems may underestimate or overestimate infection risks in some cases, which may be up to the value of period. The basic reproduction number of the seasonality model is appropriately given, which determines the extinction and uniform persistence of TB disease. If it is less than one, then the disease-free equilibrium is globally asymptotically stable; if it is greater than one, the system at least has a positive periodic solution and the disease will persist. Moreover, numerical simulations demonstrate these theorem results.

Ebola is a deadly disease caused by a virus and is spread through direct contact with blood or body fluids such as urine, feces, breast milk, saliva and semen. In this case, direct contact means that the blood or body fluids of patients were directly touching the nose, eyes, mouth, or a wound someone open. In this paper examined two mathematical models SIRD (Susceptibles-Infected-Recovery-Deaths) the spread of the Ebola virus in the human population. Both the mathematical model SIRD on the spread of the Ebola virus is a model by Abdon A. and Emile F. D. G. and research development model. This study was conducted to determine the point of disease-free equilibrium and endemic equilibrium point and stability analysis of the dots, knowing the value of the basic reproduction number (R0) and a simulation model using Matlab software version 6.1.0.450. From the analysis of the two models, obtained the same point for disease-free equilibrium point with the stability of different points and different points for endemic equilibrium point with the stability of both the same point and the same value to the value of the basic reproduction number (R0). After simulating the model using Matlab software version 6.1.0.450, it can be seen changes in the behavior of the population at any time.

This study developed a model for the spread of COVID-19 disease using the SIR model which was added by a health mask and quarantine for infected individuals. The population is divided into six subpopulations, namely the subpopulation susceptible without a health mask, susceptible using a health mask, infected without using a health mask, infected using a health mask, quarantine for infected individuals, and the subpopulation to recover. The results obtained two equilibrium points, namely the disease-free equilibrium point and the endemic equilibrium point, and the basic reproduction number (R0). The existence of a disease-free equilibrium point is unconditional, whereas an endemic equilibrium point exists if the basic reproduction number is more than one. Stability analysis of the local asymptotically stable disease-free equilibrium point when the basic reproduction number is less than one. Furthermore, numerical simulations are carried out to provide a geometric picture related to the results that have been analyzed. The results of numerical simulations support the results of the analysis obtained. Finally, the sensitivity analysis of the basic reproduction numbers carried out obtained four parameters that dominantly affect the basic reproduction number, namely the rate of contact of susceptible individuals with infection, the rate of health mask use, the rate of health mask release, and the rate of quarantine for infected individuals.

Discussion of local stability analysis of SVIR models in this article is included in the scope of applied mathematics. The purpose of this discussion was to provide results of local stability analysis that had not been discussed in some articles related to the SVIR model. The SVIR models discussed in this article involve logistics growth in the vaccinated compartment. The results obtained, i.e. if the basic reproduction number less than one and m is positive, then there is one equilibrium point i.e. E0 is locally asymptotically stable. In the field of epidemiology, this means that the disease will disappear from the population. However, if the basic reproduction number more than one and b1 more than b, then there are two equilibrium points i.e. disease-free equilibrium point denoted by E0 and the endemic equilibrium point denoted by E1*. In this case the endemic equilibrium point E1* is locally asymptotically stable. In the field of epidemiology, this means that the disease will remain in the population. The numerical simulation supports these results.

This article discusses modifications to the SEIL model that involve logistical growth. This model is used to describe the dynamics of the spread of tuberculosis disease in the population. The existence of the model's equilibrium points and its local stability depends on the basic reproduction number. If the basic reproduction number is less than unity, then there is one equilibrium point that is locally asymptotically stable. The equilibrium point is a disease-free equilibrium point. If the basic reproduction number ranges from one to three, then there are two equilibrium points. The two equilibrium points are disease-free equilibrium and endemic equilibrium points. Furthermore, for this case, the endemic equilibrium point is locally asymptotically stable.

We discuss the dynamics of new COVID-19 epidemic model by considering asymptomatic infections and the policies such as quarantine, protection (adherence to health protocols), and vaccination. The proposed model contains nine subpopulations: susceptible (S), exposed (E), symptomatic infected (I), asymptomatic infected (A), recovered (R), death (D), protected (P), quarantined (Q), and vaccinated (V ). We first show the non-negativity and boundedness of solutions. The equilibrium points, basic reproduction number, and stability of equilibrium points, both locally and globally, are also investigated analytically. The proposed model has disease-free equilibrium point and endemic equilibrium point. The disease-free equilibrium point always exists and is globally asymptotically stable if basic reproduction number is less than one. The endemic equilibrium point exists uniquely and is globally asymptotically stable if the basic reproduction number is greater than one. These properties have been confirmed by numerical simulations using the fourth order Runge-Kutta method. Numerical simulations show that the disease transmission rate of asymptomatic infection, quarantine rates, protection rate, and vaccination rates affect the basic reproduction number and hence also influence the stability of equilibrium points.

Malaria continues to pose a major public health challenge, especially in developing countries, 219 million cases of malaria were estimated in 89 countries. In this paper, a mathematical model using non-linear differential equations is formulated to describe the impact of hygiene on Malaria transmission dynamics, the model is analyzed. The model is divided into seven compartments which includes five human compartments namely; Unhygienic susceptible human population, Hygienic Susceptible Human population, Unhygienic infected human population , hygienic infected human population and the Recovered Human population  and the mosquito population is subdivided into susceptible mosquitoes  and infected mosquitoes . The positivity of the solution shows that there exists a domain where the model is biologically meaningful and mathematically well-posed. The Disease-Free Equilibrium (DFE) point of the model is obtained, we compute the Basic Reproduction Number using the next generation method and established the condition for Local stability of the disease-free equilibrium, and we thereafter obtained the global stability of the disease-free equilibrium by constructing the Lyapunov function of the model system. Also, sensitivity analysis of the model system was carried out to identify the influence of the parameters on the Basic Reproduction Number, the result shows that the natural death rate of the mosquitoes is most sensitive to the basic reproduction number.

In this article, we analyze the dynamics of measles transmission model with vaccination via an SVEIR epidemic model. The total population is divided into five compartments, namely the Susceptible, Vaccinated, Exposed, Infected, and Recovered populations. Firstly, we determine the equilibrium points and their local asymptotically stability properties presented by the basic reproduction number R0. It is found that the disease free equilibrium point is locally asymptotically stable if satisfies R01 and the endemic equilibrium point is locally asymptotically stable when R01. We also show the existence of forward bifurcation driven by some parameters that influence the basic reproduction number R0 i.e., the infection rate α or proportion of vaccinated individuals θ. Lastly, some numerical simulations are performed to support our analytical results.

Abstrak Artikel ini termasuk dalam ruang lingkup matematika epidemiologi. Tujuan ditulisnya artikel ini untuk mendeskripsikan dinamika lokal penyebaran suatu penyakit dengan beberapa asumsi yang diberikan. Dalam pembahasan, dianalisis titik ekuilibrium model epidemi SVIR dengan adanya imigrasi pada kompartemen vaksinasi. Dengan langkah pertama, model SVIR diformulasikan, kemudian titik ekuilibriumnya ditentukan, selanjutnya, bilangan reproduksi dasar ditentukan. Pada akhirnya, kestabilan titik ekuilibirum yang bergantung pada bilangan reproduksi dasar ditentukan secara eksplisit. Hasilnya adalah jika bilangan reproduksi dasar kurang dari satu maka terdapat satu titik ekuilbirum dan titik ekuilbrium tersebut stabil asimtotik lokal. Hal ini berarti bahwa dalam kondisi tersebut penyakit akan cenderung menghilang dalam populasi. Sebaliknya, jika bilangan reproduksi dasar lebih dari satu, maka terdapat dua titik ekuilibrium. Dalam kondisi ini, titik ekuilibrium endemik stabil asimtotik lokal dan titik ekuilibrium bebas penyakit tidak stabil. Hal ini berarti bahwa dalam kondisi tersebut penyakit akan tetap ada dalam populasi. Kata Kunci : Model SVIR, Stabil Asimtotik Lokal Abstract This article is included in the scope of mathematical epidemiology. The purpose of this article is to describe the dynamics of the spread of disease with some assumptions given. In this paper, we present an epidemic SVIR model with the presence of immigration in the vaccine compartment. First, we formulate the SVIR model, then the equilibrium point is determined, furthermore, the basic reproduction number is determined. In the end, the stability of the equilibrium point is determined depending on the number of basic reproduction. The result is that if the basic reproduction number is less than one then there is a unique equilibrium point and the equilibrium point is locally asymptotically stable. This means that in those conditions the disease will tend to disappear in the population. Conversely, if the basic reproduction number is more than one, then there are two equilibrium points. The endemic equilibrium point is locally asymptotically stable and the disease-free equilibrium point is unstable. This means that in those conditions the disease will remain in the population. Keywords: SVIR Model, Locally Asymptotically stable.
