Predicting the size and probability of epidemics in a population with heterogeneous infectiousness and susceptibility [PDF]
, 2007 We analytically address disease outbreaks in large, random networks with heterogeneous infectivity and susceptibility. The transmissibility $T_{uv}$ (the probability that infection of $u$ causes infection of $v$) depends on the infectivity of $u$ and the

Imperfect spreading on temporal networks
, 2015 We study spreading on networks where the contact dynamics between the nodes is governed by a random process and where the inter-contact time distribution may differ from the exponential. We consider a process of imperfect spreading, where transmission is

Epidemic model with isolation in multilayer networks [PDF]
, 2015 The Susceptible-Infected-Recovered (SIR) model has successfully mimicked the propagation of such airborne diseases as influenza A (H1N1). Although the SIR model has recently been studied in a multilayer networks configuration, in almost all the research ...

Transmissibility and transmission of respiratory viruses [PDF]
Nature Reviews Microbiology, 2021 Human respiratory virus infections lead to a spectrum of respiratory symptoms and disease severity, contributing to substantial morbidity, mortality and economic losses worldwide, as seen in the COVID-19 pandemic. Belonging to diverse families, respiratory viruses differ in how easy they spread (transmissibility) and the mechanism (modes) of ...

The transmissibility of vibration isolators with a nonlinear anti-symmetric damping characteristic [PDF]
, 2008 In the present study, the concept of the Output Frequency Response Function (OFRF), recently proposed by the authors, is applied to theoretically investigate the transmissibility of SDOF passive vibration isolators with a nonlinear anti-symmetric damping

One-way trip: Influenza virus' adaptation to gallinaceous poultry may limit its pandemic potential [PDF]
, 2014 We hypothesise that some influenza virus adaptations to poultry may explain why the barrier for human-to-human transmission is not easily overcome once the virus has crossed from wild birds to chickens.

Natural Frequency Transmissibility for Detection of Cracks in Horizontal Axis Wind Turbine Blades
SensorsDefects on horizontal axis wind turbine blades are difficult to identify and monitor with conventional forms of non-destructive examination due to the blade’s large size and limited accessibility during continuous operation.

Fractional-order susceptible-infected model: definition and applications to the study of COVID-19 main protease [PDF]
, 2020 We propose a model for the transmission of perturbations across the amino acids of a protein represented as an interaction network. The dynamics consists of a Susceptible-Infected (SI) model based on the Caputo fractional-order derivative.

Viruses, 2019 There were five outbreaks of H7N9 influenza virus in humans in China since it emerged in 2013, infecting >1000 people. The H7N9 low pathogenic influenza virus was inserted into four amino acids in the HA protein cleavage site to mutate into the H7N9 ...
