On oscillatory pattern of malaria dynamics in a population with temporary immunity
نویسنده
چکیده
We use a model to study the dynamics of malaria in the human and mosquito population to explain the stability patterns of malaria. The model results show that the disease-free equilibrium is globally asymptotically stable and occurs whenever the basic reproduction number, R0 is less than unity. We also note that when R0 . 1, the disease-free equilibrium is unstable and the endemic equilibrium is stable. Numerical simulations show that recoveries and temporary immunity keep the populations at oscillation patterns and eventually converge to a steady state.

Stability and Numerical Analysis of Malaria- mTB- HIV/AIDS Co-infection (TECHNICAL NOTE)
In this paper, we develop a mathematical model to examine the transmission dynamics of curable malaria, curable mTB and non-curable HIV/AIDS and their co-infection. The size of population has been taken as varying due to the emigration of susceptible population. The total population is divided into five subclasses as susceptible, malaria infected, mTB infected, HIV infection and AIDS by assumin...
متن کاملGait Generation for a Bipedal System By Morris-Lecar Central Pattern Generator
The ability to move in complex environments is one of the most important features of humans and animals. In this work, we exploit a bio-inspired method to generate different gaits in a bipedal locomotion system. We use the 4-cell CPG model developed by Pinto [21]. This model has been established on symmetric coupling between the cells which are responsible for generating oscillatory signals. Th...
متن کاملDisentangling extrinsic from intrinsic factors in disease dynamics: a nonlinear time series approach with an application to cholera.
Alternative explanations for disease and other population cycles typically include extrinsic environmental drivers, such as climate variability, and intrinsic nonlinear dynamics resulting from feedbacks within the system, such as species interactions and density dependence. Because these different factors can interact in nonlinear systems and can give rise to oscillations whose frequencies diff...
متن کاملThreshold dynamics in an SEIRS model with latency and temporary immunity.
A disease transmission model of SEIRS type with distributed delays in latent and temporary immune periods is discussed. With general/particular probability distributions in both of these periods, we address the threshold property of the basic reproduction number R0 and the dynamical properties of the disease-free/endemic equilibrium points present in the model. More specifically, we 1. show the...
متن کاملRandom, top-down, or bottom-up coexistence of parasites: malaria population dynamics in multi-parasitic settings.
Epidemiological models concerned with the control of malaria using interventions such as bed nets and vaccines increasingly incorporate realistic aspects of malaria biology. The increasing complexity of these models limits their ability to abstract ecological processes and to address questions on the regulation of population dynamics using time-series data, particularly in regards to interactio...
