Nonautonomous Dynamical Systems, 2023 In this article, we consider an epidemiological model in which we take into account the effects of direct and indirect transmissions. The first mode occurs through direct contact between infectious and susceptible individuals, and the second one will ...

Computational and Mathematical Methods in Medicine, Volume 11, Issue 3, Page 201-222, 2010., 2010 A deterministic compartmental sex‐structured HIV/AIDS model for assessing the effects of homosexuals and bisexuals in heterosexual settings in which homosexuality and bisexuality issues have remained taboo is presented. We extend the model to focus on the effects of condom use as a single strategy approach in HIV prevention in the absence of any other ...

Homoclinic and heteroclinic solutions to a hepatitis C evolution model
Open Mathematics, 2018 Homoclinic and heteroclinic solutions to a standard hepatitis C virus (HCV) evolution model described by T. C. Reluga, H. Dahari and A. S. Perelson, (SIAM J. Appl. Math., 69 (2009), pp. 999–1023) are considered in this paper.

Optimal strategies for controlling the outbreak of COVID-19: Reducing its cost and duration
Nonautonomous Dynamical Systems, 2023 Social distancing plays an essential role in controlling the spread of an epidemic, but changing the behavior of individuals regarding social distancing is costly.

Geometric medians in reconciliation spaces [PDF]
, 2017 In evolutionary biology, it is common to study how various entities evolve together, for example, how parasites coevolve with their host, or genes with their species.

Optimal Control of Vertically Transmitted Disease: An Integrated Approach
Computational and Mathematical Methods in Medicine, Volume 11, Issue 4, Page 369-387, 2010., 2010 We study the dynamics of a disease under administration of a vaccine and antiviral drug, where the disease transmits directly from the parents to the offspring (vertical transmission) and also through contact with infective individuals (horizontal transmission).

Dengue disease, basic reproduction number and control [PDF]
, 2011 Dengue is one of the major international public health concerns. Although progress is underway, developing a vaccine against the disease is challenging. Thus, the main approach to fight the disease is vector control.

Mathematical Modelling of Immune Response in Tissues
Computational and Mathematical Methods in Medicine, Volume 10, Issue 1, Page 9-38, 2009., 2009 We have developed a spatial–temporal mathematical model (PDE) to capture fundamental aspects of the immune response to antigen. We have considered terms that broadly describe intercellular communication, cell movement, and effector function (activation or inhibition).

A Mathematical Model Quantifies Proliferation and Motility Effects of TGF‐β on Cancer Cells
Computational and Mathematical Methods in Medicine, Volume 10, Issue 1, Page 71-83, 2009., 2009 Transforming growth factor (TGF)‐β is known to have properties of both a tumour suppressor and a tumour promoter. While it inhibits cell proliferation, it also increases cell motility and decreases cell–cell adhesion. Coupling mathematical modelling and experiments, we investigate the growth and motility of oncogene‐expressing human mammary epithelial ...

Metapopulation Dynamics with Migration and Local Competition [PDF]
, 2002 MSC2000: primary 34D15, 34D23, 92B05; secondary 34K60, 34E13, 92D40.Many patch-based metapopulation models assume that the local population within each patch is at its equilibrium and independent of changes in patch occupancy.
