چکیده

Abstract: The aim of this work is to investigate a new mathematical model with delay that describes HIV infection of CD4 T-cells during therapy. A novel feature is that both therapy and the delay are incorporated into the model. We prove that the infection will die out if the basic reproduction number R0 < 1 while the HIV infection may become endemic if R0 > 1. Stability analysis of both endemic and disease free steady states are also studied. Finally, we give some numerical simulations to illustrate our results.

Sub-optimal Estimation of HIV Time-delay Model using State-Dependent Impulsive Observer with Time-varying Impulse Interval: Application to Continuous-time and Impulsive Inputs

Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) weakens the immune system in confronting various diseases by attacking to CD4+T cells. In modeling HIV behavior, the number of CD4+T cells is considered as the output. But, continuous-time measurement of these cells is not possible in practice, and the measurement is only available at variable intervals that are several times bigger than sampling time. In this...

Stability and Bifurcation Analysis for an Improved HIV Model with Time Delay and Cure Rate

In this paper, a modified delayed mathematical model for the dynamics of HIV with cure rate is considered. By regarding the time delay as bifurcation parameter, stability and existence of local Hopf bifurcation are studied by analyzing the transcendental characteristic equation. Then the global existence of bifurcating periodic solutions is established with the assistance of global Hopf bifurca...

A Differential Equation Model of HIV Infection of CD4+ T-Cells with Delay

An epidemic model of HIV infection of CD4 T-cells with cure rate and delay is studied. We include a baseline ODE version of the model, and a differential-delay model with a discrete time delay. The ODE model shows that the dynamics is completely determined by the basic reproduction number R0 < 1. If R0 < 1, the disease-free equilibrium is asymptotically stable and the disease dies out. If R0 > ...

Nonlinear oscillation of certain third-order neutral differential equation with distributed delay

The authors obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of oscillatory solutions with a specified asymptotic behavior of solutions to a nonlinear neutral differential equation with distributed delay of third order. We give new theorems which ensure that every solution to be either oscillatory or converges to zero asymptotically. Examples dwelling upon the importance of applicab...
