โœฆ Synopsis


For a multigroup SEIR epidemiological model with nonlinear incidence rates, the basic reproduction number is identified. It is shown that, under certain group mixing patterns and nonlinearity and/or nonsmoothness in the incidence of infection, the basic reproduction number is a global threshold parameter in the sense that the disease free equilibrium is globally stable if the basic reproduction number is less than one and the endemic equilibrium is globally stable if the basic reproduction number is greater than one.

In this paper, we introduce a basic reproduction number for a multigroup epidemic model with nonlinear incidence. Then, we establish that global dynamics are completely determined by the basic reproduction number R 0 . It shows that, the basic reproduction number R 0 is a global threshold parameter

Stability of SIR models has been studied extensively within the framework of disease epidemiology. We formulate a nonlinear mathematical model to study the role of nonlinear incidence rates and the effect of time delay in a nonlinear logistically growing time delayed SIR model with variable populati
