Effect of awareness and saturated treatment on the transmission of infectious diseases
Computational and Mathematical BiophysicsIn 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}.

Analysis of a model arising from invasion by precursor and differentiated cells
, 2013 We study the wave solutions for a degenerated reaction diffusion system arising from the invasion of cells. We show that there exists a family of waves for the wave speed larger than or equals a certain number, and below which there is no monotonic wave ...

Modelling and simulating Chikungunya spread with an unstructured triangular cellular automata
Infectious Disease Modelling, 2020 In this work we propose a mathematical model to simulate Chikungunya spread; the spread model is implemented in a C++ cellular automata code defined on unstructured triangular grids and space visualizations are performed with Python. In order to simulate

Mathematical modeling of Zika disease in pregnant women and newborns with microcephaly in Brazil
, 2017 We propose a new mathematical model for the spread of Zika virus. Special attention is paid to the transmission of microcephaly. Numerical simulations show the accuracy of the model with respect to the Zika outbreak occurred in Brazil.Comment: This is a ...

HIV with contact-tracing: a case study in Approximate Bayesian Computation
, 2010 Missing data is a recurrent issue in epidemiology where the infection process may be partially observed. Approximate Bayesian Computation, an alternative to data imputation methods such as Markov Chain Monte Carlo integration, is proposed for making ...

On the Dynamics of Dengue Virus type 2 with Residence Times and Vertical Transmission
, 2016 A two-patch mathematical model of Dengue virus type 2 (DENV-2) that accounts for vectors' vertical transmission and between patches human dispersal is introduced. Dispersal is modeled via a Lagrangian approach.

Individual versus cluster recoveries within a spatially structured population
, 2006 Stochastic modeling of disease dynamics has had a long tradition. Among the first epidemic models including a spatial structure in the form of local interactions is the contact process. In this article we investigate two extensions of the contact process
