Hopf bifurcation analysis for a delayed SIRS epidemic model with a nonlinear incidence rate
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper is concerned with a delayed SIRS epidemic model with a nonlinear incidence rate. The main results are given in terms of local stability and Hopf bifurcation. Sufficient conditions for the local stability of the positive equilibrium and existence of Hopf bifurcation are obtained by regarding the time delay as the bifurcation parameter. Further, the properties of Hopf bifurcation such as the direction and stability are investigated by using the normal form theory and center manifold argument. Finally, some numerical simulations are presented to verify the theoretical analysis.

Bifurcation Analysis of an Sirs Epidemic Model with Standard Incidence Rate and Saturated Treatment Function∗
An epidemic model with standard incidence rate and saturated treatment function of infectious individuals is proposed to understand the effect of the capacity for treatment of infective individuals on the disease spread. The treatment function in this paper is a continuous and differential function which exhibits the effect of delayed treatment when the rate of treatment is lower and the number...
متن کاملBifurcations of an Sirs Epidemic Model with Nonlinear Incidence Rate
The main purpose of this paper is to explore the dynamics of an epidemic model with a general nonlinear incidence βSI/(1 + αI). The existence and stability of multiple endemic equilibria of the epidemic model are analyzed. Local bifurcation theory is applied to explore the rich dynamical behavior of the model. Normal forms of the model are derived for different types of bifurcations, including ...

In this paper an SIS epidemic model with saturated incidence rate and treatment func- tion is proposed and studied. The existence of all feasible equilibrium points is discussed. The local stability conditions of the disease free equilibrium point and endemic equilibrium point are established with the help of basic reproduction number.However the global stabili- ty conditions of these eq...

In this paper, Hopf bifurcation for a delayed SIS epidemic model with stage structure and nonlinear incidence rate is investigated. Through theoretical analysis, we show the positive equilibrium stability and the conditions that Hopf bifurcation occurs. Applying the normal form theory and the center manifold argument, we derive the explicit formulas determining the properties of the bifurcating...
متن کاملStability and bifurcation analysis of epidemic models with saturated incidence rates: an application to a nonmonotone incidence rate
We analyze local asymptotic stability of an SIRS epidemic model with a distributed delay. The incidence rate is given by a general saturated function of the number of infective individuals. Our first aim is to find a class of nonmonotone incidence rates such that a unique endemic equilibrium is always asymptotically stable. We establish a characterization for the incidence rate, which shows tha...
