Abstract:

‎Mathematical models are the most important tools in epidemiology to understand previous outbreaks of diseases and to better understand the dynamics of how infections spread through populations‎. ‎Many existing models closely approximate historical disease patterns‎. ‎This article investigates the mathematical model of the deadly disease with severe and uncontrollable bleeding‎, ‎Ebola which is currently becoming the headache of the whole world though effort to control is undergoing‎. ‎In this paper a new mathematical model of the Ebola epidemic is built‎. ‎Besides‎, ‎the basic reproduction number is calculated and the stability of both disease free and endemic equilibrium is proved‎. ‎Finally‎, ‎numerical simulations are executed to further consolidate the analysis of the deadly disease Ebola.

Mathematical modeling of cholera epidemics in South Sudan

Cholera is one of the main health issue around the world, especially in Africa, where every year thousands of people die due to this enteric disease. International agencies, as the World Health Organization and the United Nation are making big efforts to help people in need and to stop this infection and, even if progresses have been made, a lot of work is still required. Epidemiological models...

Mathematical Modeling and Simulation of Dissolvable Hydrogels

Hydrogels have a large number of potential applications in microelectromechanical technology as sensors and actuators. In this paper we try to understand the physics of dissolvable hydrogels and investigate the various parameters controlling the dissolution process. Hydrogels, crosslinked via disulfide bonds, when immersed in a solution containing the disulfide cleaving agent can break covalent...
