Abstract:

Vaccination is the most effective method of preventing the spread of infectious diseases. In this thesis, we develop and apply mathematical models to study vaccination. The thesis consists of three main parts. Firstly, in deciding whether to be vaccinated before the outbreak of the epidemic, people need to consider the risk from vaccination and the probability of being infected. The decision of one individual is indirectly influenced by the decisions of all other individuals. Because the vaccine coverage levels are determined by all decisions of all individuals. We apply game theory to

This thesis looks at the use mathematical modelling, in particular the use of simulation as a solution technique, when applied to the problem of the study of infectious diseases. The thesis examines two different routes of infection of the bacteria Chlamydia trachomatis - the sexually transmitted disease Chlamydia, and the ocular disease Trachoma. Several simulation models are developed within the thesis. The exploration of Chlamydia results in a prototype model which it is suggested could be extended in a future project. The work exploring Trachoma resulted in the development of a model usefu

Abstract:

This thesis describes the development of models designed to capture the dynamics of infections taking place within mixing networks. These models, formulated as systems of differential equations using pair-wise moment closure techniques, are investigated for a wide variety of situations and shown to be highly flexible and often very different from traditional approaches. When compared to full stochastic simulations on computer-generated networks they are remarkably accurate, giving excellent agreement both to the initial growth and the equilibrium behaviour of epidemics. The models are used to

This thesis investigates the feasibility of using spatial survival modelling techniques to develop dynamic space-time predictive models of risk for infectious animal disease epidemics. Examples of diseases with potentially vast socioeconomic impacts include avian influenza, bovine tuberculosis and foot-and-mouth disease (FMD), all of which have received wide coverage in the recent media. The relatively sporadic occurrence of such large scale animal disease outbreaks makes determination of optimal control policies difficult, and policy makers must balance the relative impacts of different respo

Abstract:

This research work is on time-delayed models of infectious diseases dynamics. The dynamics of infectious diseases are studied in the presence of time delays representing temporary immunity or latency. We have designed and analysed time-delayed models with various parameters to simulate disease dynamics, in a view to gaining insight into the behaviour of a population in the presence of infectious diseases, and the reaction of the population to changes in the management procedure of such infections.

Abstract:

The goal of this study is to try to understand multi-strain diseases with the presence of cross-immunity by using mathematical models and other mathematical tools. Cross-immunity occurs when a host who is exposed to one disease, or one strain of a disease, develops resistance or partial resistance to related diseases or strains. It is an important factor in the epidemiology of diseases prone to mutation. This work includes modelling influenza in both presence and absence of controls. It also includes modelling malaria when cross-species immunity is present. In addition, vector-bias of mosquito

Abstract:

Infectious diseases represent a multitude of threats to populations in both the developed and developing world, from the emergence of drug resistant bacteria and new pathogens to the ancient killers of the neglected topical diseases. Yet a common problem unites all infectious diseases, that is the challenge of how do we cost effectively identify new drugs? The arrival of high-throughput low cost sequencing starkly illustrates the nature of the challenge: the genome sequence of any pathogen can now be determined in a few days yet the availability of complete pathogen genomes has not led to the

Abstract:

Impulsive differential equations are useful for modelling certain biological events. We present three biological applications showing the use of impulsive differential equations in real-world problems. We also look at the effects of stability on a reduced two-dimensional impulsive HIV system. The first application is a system describing HIV induction-maintenance therapy, which shows how the solution to an impulsive system is used in order to find biological results (adherence, etc). A second application is an HIV system describing the interaction between T-cells, virus and drugs. Stability

In the second project, we develop a germinal center model to understand the mechanisms that lead to the formation of potent long-lived plasm

Infections are a common complication of organ transplantation, and a major cause of death for transplant recipients.
