A household SIR epidemic model incorporating time of day effects
During the course of a day an individual typically mixes with different groups of individuals. Epidemic models incorporating population structure with individuals being able to infect different groups of individuals have received extensive attention in the literature. However, almost exclusively the models assume that individuals are able to simultaneously infect members of all groups, whereas ...
متن کاملAnalysis of a stochastic SIR epidemic on a random network incorporating household structure.
This paper is concerned with a stochastic SIR (susceptible-->infective-->removed) model for the spread of an epidemic amongst a population of individuals, with a random network of social contacts, that is also partitioned into households. The behaviour of the model as the population size tends to infinity in an appropriate fashion is investigated. A threshold parameter which determines whether ...

متن کاملBehavior of a Discrete SIR Epidemic Model
I. Introduction Infections and infectious diseases are a great burden on many societies, including the countries. An epidemic may be described as a sudden outbreak of a disease that infects a substantial portion of the population in a region before it disappears. In the nineteenth century, recurrent waves of cholera killed millions in India. The influenza epidemic of 1918-1919 killed at least 2...
متن کاملRich dynamics of an SIR epidemic model
Over the past one hundred years, mathematics has been used to understand and predict the spread of diseases, relating important public-health questions to basic transmission parameters. From prehistory to the present day, diseases have been a source of fear and superstition. A comprehensive picture of disease dynamics requires a variety of mathematical tools, from model creation to solving diff...
