Non-local diffusion and pulse intervention in a faecal-oral model with moving infected fronts

open access: yesAdvances in Nonlinear Analysis
How individual dispersal patterns and human intervention behaviours affect the spread of infectious diseases constitutes a central problem in epidemiological research.

New parameters estimation in an ordinary differential equation model for the multistep transformation of cancer cells using particle swarm optimization

open access: yesComputational and Mathematical Biophysics
The research on cancer cells has proposed many hypotheses as a basic conceptual framework for understanding how normal cells transform into cancer cells. Cancer cells are assumed to undergo a multilevel mutation process from normal cells to cancer cells.

Modeling of the switching effect on two prey and one predator with the presence of Allee effects and refuge

open access: yesComputational and Mathematical Biophysics
To examine the dynamics of a predator’s interaction with two prey species, this study develops a comprehensive mathematical model that accounts for ecological complexities, including the Allee effect, prey switching behavior, and prey refuge.

Mathematical model of Zika virus with vertical transmission

open access: yesInfectious Disease Modelling, 2017
Zika is a flavivirus transmitted to humans through either the bites of infected Aedes mosquitoes or sexual transmission. Zika has been linked to congenital anomalies such as microcephaly.

Effect of awareness and saturated treatment on the transmission of infectious diseases

open access: yesComputational and Mathematical Biophysics
In this article, we study the role of awareness and its impact on the control of infectious diseases. We analyze a susceptible-infected-recovered model with a media awareness compartment. We find the effective reproduction number R0{R}_{0}.

Assessing the impact of information-induced self-protection on Zika transmission: A mathematical modeling approach

open access: yesComputational and Mathematical Biophysics
As per the World Health Organization’s (WHO’s) suggestions, personal protection via adopting precautionary measures is one of the most effective control aspects to avoid Zika infection in the absence of suitable medical treatment.

Mathematical modeling of contact tracing and stability analysis to inform its impact on disease outbreaks; an application to COVID-19

open access: yesInfectious Disease Modelling
We develop a mathematical model to investigate the effect of contact tracing on containing epidemic outbreaks and slowing down the spread of transmissible diseases.
