• Titolo uniforme: An introduction to mathematical epidemiology
• Descrizione fisica: 1 testo elettronico (XIV, 453 p. : ill.)
• Soggetto topico: 34D20 - Stability of solutions to ordinary differential equation [MSC 2020]; 35F50 - Systems of nonlinear first-order PDEs [MSC 2020]; 92D30 - Epidemiology [MSC 2020]
• Soggetto non controllato: Data Fitting; Epidemic Modeling; Infectious Diseases; Mathematical Modeling; Mathematical epidemiology; Ordinary differential equations; Population dynamics
• Nota di contenuto: The book is a comprehensive, self-contained introduction to the mathematical modeling and analysis of infectious diseases. It includes model building, fitting to data, local and global analysis techniques. Various types of deterministic dynamical models are considered: ordinary differential equation models, delay-differential equation models, difference equation models, age-structured PDE models and diffusion models. It includes various techniques for the computation of the basic reproduction number as well as approaches to the epidemiological interpretation of the reproduction number. MATLAB code is included to facilitate the data fitting and the simulation with age-structured models.
