Abstract In this study, a numerical method based on the Pell-Lucas polynomials (PLPs) is developed to solve the fractional order HIV/AIDS epidemic model with a treatment compartment. The HIV/AIDS mathematical model with a treatment compartment is divided into five classes, namely, susceptible patients (S), HIV-positive individuals (I), individuals with full-blown AIDS but not receiving ARV treatment (A), individuals being treated (T), and individuals who have changed their sexual habits sufficiently (R). According to the method, by utilizing the PLPs and the collocation points, we convert the fractional order HIV/AIDS epidemic model with a treatment compartment into… More >

Abstract This work aimed to construct an epidemic model with fuzzy parameters. Since the classical epidemic model does not elaborate on the successful interaction of susceptible and infective people, the constructed fuzzy epidemic model discusses the more detailed versions of the interactions between infective and susceptible people. The next-generation matrix approach is employed to find the reproduction number of a deterministic model. The sensitivity analysis and local stability analysis of the system are also provided. For solving the fuzzy epidemic model, a numerical scheme is constructed which consists of three time levels. The numerical scheme has More >
