Abstract
Age structure and delay play a significant role in determining the dynamics of the diseases. In this paper, an SEIRS epidemic model with age structure and time delay is investigated, where the loss of the acquired immunity and delay are incorporated. Through some rigorous analyses, an explicit formula for the basic reproduction number of the model is calculated, and some results about stability and instability of equilibria for the model are established. The findings show that the age structure and delay can produce Hopf bifurcation for an SEIRS model. The numerical examples are executed to illustrate the theoretical results.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Biological Systems is published quarterly. The goal of the Journal is to promote interdisciplinary approaches in Biology and in Medicine, and the study of biological situations with a variety of tools, including mathematical and general systems methods. The Journal solicits original research papers and survey articles in areas that include (but are not limited to):
Complex systems studies; isomorphies; nonlinear dynamics; entropy; mathematical tools and systems theories with applications in Biology and Medicine.
Interdisciplinary approaches in Biology and Medicine; transfer of methods from one discipline to another; integration of biological levels, from atomic to molecular, macromolecular, cellular, and organic levels; animal biology; plant biology.
Environmental studies; relationships between individuals, populations, communities and ecosystems; bioeconomics, management of renewable resources; hierarchy theory; integration of spatial and time scales.
Evolutionary biology; co-evolutions; genetics and evolution; branching processes and phyllotaxis.
Medical systems; physiology; cardiac modeling; computer models in Medicine; cancer research; epidemiology.
Numerical simulations and computations; numerical study and analysis of biological data.
Epistemology; history of science.
The journal will also publish book reviews.
