Stochastic effects in a seasonally forced epidemic model [PDF]
, 2010 The interplay of seasonality, the system's nonlinearities and intrinsic stochasticity is studied for a seasonally forced susceptible-exposed-infective-recovered stochastic model. The model is explored in the parameter region that corresponds to childhood

Dynamics of Hepatitis B Virus Disease with Infectious Latent and Vertical Transmission
WSEAS TRANSACTIONS ON BIOLOGY AND BIOMEDICINEHepatitis B has become a major health threat because it is a life-threatening liver disease with an estimated 0.25 billion people suffering from this infectious disease worldwide. This paper presents a SLITR (Susceptible-Latent-Infectious-Treatment-Recovery) mathematical model that combines both vaccination and treatment as a means of controlling the ...
