Implications of the school-household network structure on SARS-CoV-2 transmission under school reopening strategies in England

Nature Communications, 2021
Many countries have closed schools as part of their COVID-19 response. Here, the authors model SARS-CoV-2 transmission on a network of schools and households in England, and find that risk of transmission between schools is lower if primary schools are ...

Complex-tensor theory of simple smectics

Nature Communications, 2023
As lamellar materials, smectics exhibit both liquid and solid characteristics, making them difficult to model at the mesoscale. Paget et al. propose a complex tensor order parameter that reflects the smectic symmetries, capable of describing complex ...

Stability analysis of the coexistence equilibrium of a balanced metapopulation model

Scientific Reports, 2021
We analyze the stability of a unique coexistence equilibrium point of a system of ordinary differential equations (ODE system) modelling the dynamics of a metapopulation, more specifically, a set of local populations inhabiting discrete habitat patches ...
