A mathematical analysis of the impact of maternally derived immunity and double-dose vaccination on the spread and control of measles

open access: yesComputational and Mathematical Biophysics, 2023
Measles is a highly communicable viral infection that mostly affects children aged 5 years and below. Maternal antibodies in neonates help protect them from infectious diseases, including measles. However, maternal antibodies disappear a few months after

A food chain ecoepidemic model: infection at the bottom trophic level [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
In this paper we consider a three level food web subject to a disease affecting the bottom prey. The resulting dynamics is much richer with respect to the purely demographic model, in that it contains more transcritical bifurcations, gluing together the ...

The multistep Laplace optimized decomposition method for solving fractional-order coronavirus disease model (COVID-19) via the Caputo fractional approach

open access: yesDemonstratio Mathematica, 2022
COVID-19, a novel coronavirus disease, is still causing concern all over the world. Recently, researchers have been concentrating their efforts on understanding the complex dynamics of this widespread illness.

A stochastic SICA epidemic model for HIV transmission

open access: yes, 2018
We propose a stochastic SICA epidemic model for HIV transmission, described by stochastic ordinary differential equations, and discuss its perturbation by environmental white noise.

A General Multipatch Model of Ebola Dynamics

open access: yesNonautonomous Dynamical Systems, 2021
A model for the transmission dynamics of Ebola virus in a multipatch network setting is studied. The model considers the contribution to the dynamics by people who are susceptible, infectious, isolated, deceased but still infectious and not yet buried ...

Limiting the spread of disease through altered migration patterns [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We consider a model for an epidemic in a population that occupies geographically distinct locations. The disease is spread within subpopulations by contacts between infective and susceptible individuals, and is spread between subpopulations by the ...

A two-strain ecoepidemic competition model

open access: yes, 2014
In this paper we consider a competition system in which two diseases spread by contact. We characterize the system behavior, establishing that only some configurations are possible.

Global Stability for an SEIR Epidemiological Model with Varying Infectivity and Infinite Delay [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
A recent paper (Math. Biosci. and Eng. (2008) 5:389-402) presented an SEIR model using an infinite delay to account for varying infectivity. The analysis in that paper did not resolve the global dynamics for R0 \u3e 1.

Coastal fisheries adaptations to increasing climate change exposure in Japan

open access: yesPeople and Nature, Volume 6, Issue 6, Page 2339-2356, December 2024.
Abstract Climate change‐driven ocean warming is altering the geographic ranges of species, leading to a poleward shift of tropical species into temperate regions (tropicalisation). This threatens the native marine community assemblages by changing the availability of traditional marine resources, thus impacting the livelihood and well‐being of coastal ...

A primer on stochastic epidemic models: Formulation, numerical simulation, and analysis

open access: yesInfectious Disease Modelling, 2017
Some mathematical methods for formulation and numerical simulation of stochastic epidemic models are presented. Specifically, models are formulated for continuous-time Markov chains and stochastic differential equations. Some well-known examples are used
