Fuzzy fractional derivative model to assess the dynamics of hepatitis B infection
Abstract:Hepatitis B virus infection shall remain a public health concern in many developed and developing countries. In this paper, we formulate and analyse a simple fuzzy fractional model of HBV infection to assess the dynamics of the disease using fractional-order differential equations. To analyse the effect of the initial transmission of the disease, we computed the basic reproduction number R 0 , and used it to perform stability analysis. The results show that the disease-free and the endemic equilibrium are glob… Show more
