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.

In this paper, certain delayed virus dynamical models with cell-to-cell infection and density-dependent diffusion are investigated. For the viral model with a single strain, we have proved the well-posedness and studied the global stabilities of equilibria by defining the basic reproductive number [Formula: see text] and structuring proper Lyapunov functional. Moreover, we found that the infection-free equilibrium is globally asymptotically stable if [Formula: see text], and the infection equilibrium is globally asymptotically stable if [Formula: see text]. For the multi-strain model, we found that all viral strains coexist if the corresponding basic reproductive number [Formula: see text], while virus will extinct if [Formula: see text]. As a result, we found that delay and the density-dependent diffusion does not influence the global stability of the model with cell-to-cell infection and homogeneous Neumann boundary conditions.

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.

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.

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.

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.

A new epidemiological model is introduced with nonlinear incidence, in which the infected disease may lose infectiousness and then evolves to a chronic noninfectious disease when the infected disease has not been cured for a certain timeτ. The existence, uniqueness, and stability of the disease-free equilibrium and endemic equilibrium are discussed. The basic reproductive numberR0is given. The model is studied in two cases: with and without time delay. For the model without time delay, the disease-free equilibrium is globally asymptotically stable provided thatR0≤1; ifR0>1, then there exists a unique endemic equilibrium, and it is globally asymptotically stable. For the model with time delay, a sufficient condition is given to ensure that the disease-free equilibrium is locally asymptotically stable. Hopf bifurcation in endemic equilibrium with respect to the timeτis also addressed.

This paper presents a nonlinear sex-structured mathematical model to study the spread of HIV/AIDS by considering transmission of disease by heterosexual contact. The epidemic threshold and equilibria for the model are determined, local stability and global stability of both the "Disease-Free Equilibrium" (DFE) and "Endemic Equilibrium" (EE) are discussed in detail. The DFE is shown to be locally and globally stable when the basic reproductive number ℛ0 is less than unity. We also prove that the EE is locally and globally asymptotically stable under some conditions. Finally, numerical simulations are reported to support the analytical findings.

This paper discussed a hepatitis B virus infection with delay, spatial diffusion, and standard incidence function. The local stability of equilibrium is obtained via characteristic equations. By using comparison arguments, it is proved that if the basic reproduction number is less than unity, the infection-free equilibrium is globally asymptotically stable. If the basic reproductive number is greater than unity, by means of an iteration technique, sufficiently conditions are obtained for the global asymptotic stability of the infected steady state. Numerical simulations are carried out to illustrate our findings.
