Mathematical epidemiology of malaria disease transmission and its optimal control analyses
(University of the Western Cape, 2010)In this thesis, we present and analyse an SEIR (susceptible-exposed infectious-recovered) model for malaria disease transmission. The model consists treatment and control strategies such as the use of bed nets and spray ... -
A mathematical modeling of optimal vaccination strategies in epidemiology
(University of the Western Cape, 2010)We review a number of compartmental models in epidemiology which leads to a nonlinear system of ordinary differential equations. We focus an SIR, SEIR and SIS epidemic models with and without vaccination. A threshold ... -

Mathematical modeling of TB disease dynamics in a crowded population.
(University of the Western Cape, 2020)Tuberculosis is a bacterial infection which is a major cause of death worldwide. TB is a curable disease, however the bacterium can become resistant to the first line treatment against the disease. This leads to a disease ... -
Mathematical modelling of HIV/AIDS with recruitment of infecteds
(University of the Western Cape, 2015)The influx of infecteds into a population plays a critical role in HIV transmission. These infecteds are known to migrate from one region to another, thereby having some interaction with a host population. This interactive ... -
Mathematical modelling of the HIV/AIDS epidemic and the effect of public health education
(University of Western Cape, 2014)HIV/AIDS is nowadays considered as the greatest public health disaster of modern time. Its progression has challenged the global population for decades. Through mathematical modelling, researchers have studied different ...
