A Deterministic Mathematical Model for the Control of Spread of Prosopis Juliflora Plants
Simon, Joel; Mirau, Silas; Luboobi, Livingstone (Journal of Mathematics and Informatics, 2020-09-25)Prosopis juliflora plants are the most aggressive invasive species in the world. They spread by animal movement crossing from one place land to another. In this paper a deterministic model to examine the dynamics of ... -
The Effect of Seasonal Weather Variation on the Dynamics of the Plague Disease
Ngeleja, Rigobert; Luboobi, Livingstone; Nkansah-Gyekye, Yaw (Hindawi International Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, 2017-08-10)Plague is a historic disease which is also known to be the most devastating disease that ever occurred in human history, caused by gram-negative bacteria known as Yersinia pestis.The disease is mostly affected by variations ... -
A mathematical model for fall armyworm management on maize biomass
Daudi, Salamida; Luboobi, Livingstone; Kgosimore, Moatlhodi (Springer Nature, 2021-02-04)Fall armyworm (Spodoptera frugiperda), a highly destructive and fast spreading agricultural pest native to North and South America, poses a real threat to global food security. In this paper, to explore the dynamics and ... -
Mathematical Model for Optimal Control of Soil-Transmitted Helminth Infection
Lambura, Aristide G.; Mwanga, Gasper G.; Luboobi, Livingstone; Kuznetsov, Dmitry (Hindawi, 2020-08-01)In this paper, we study the dynamics of soil-transmitted helminth infection. We formulate and analyse a deterministic compartmental model using nonlinear differential equations. The basic reproduction number is obtained ... -
Mathematical model for the effects of treatment and vaccination controls on the dynamics of rotavirus disease with reference to Uganda
Namawejje, Hellen; Luboobi, Livingstone; Kuznetsov, Dmitry; Wobudeya, Eric (SCIK Publishing Corporation, 2014)In this paper, while Rotavirus has been a recognised disease for a long time in developing countries like Uganda, the control of this endemic disease is still a challenge. We formulated a mathematical model for the dynamics ... -
Modeling the Dynamics of Rabies Transmission with Vaccination and Stability Analysis
Ega, Tesfaye Tadesse; Luboobi, Livingstone; Kuznetsov, Dmitry (Science Publishing Group, 2015-10-09)In this paper we formulate a deterministic mathematical model for the transmission dynamics of rabies in human and animal within and around Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. Our model involves vaccination program for dog population. ... -
Modeling the Effects of Helminth Infection on the Transmission Dynamics of Mycobacterium tuberculosis under Optimal Control Strategies.
Lambura, Aristide; Mwanga, Gasper; Luboobi, Livingstone; Kuznetsov, Dmitry (Hindawi, 2020-11-18)A deterministic mathematical model for the transmission and control of cointeraction of helminths and tuberculosis is presented, to examine the impact of helminth on tuberculosis and the effect of control strategies. The ... -
Modeling the Impact of Seasonal Weather Variations on the Infectiology of Brucellosis
Nyerere, Nkuba; Luboobi, Livingstone; Mpeshe, Saul; Shirima, Gabriel (Hindawi, 2020-10-17)A deterministic mathematical model for brucellosis that incorporates seasonality on direct and indirect transmission parameters for domestic ruminants, wild animals, humans, and the environment was formulated and analyzed ... -
Modelling the Control of the Impact of Fall Armyworm (Spodoptera frugiperda) Infestations on Maize Production
Daudi, Salamida; Luboobi, Livingstone; Kgosimore, Moatlhodi; Kuznetsov, Dmitry (Hindawi, 2021-02-18)In this paper, we propose and analyze a stage-structured mathematical model for modelling the control of the impact of Fall Armyworm infestations on maize production. Preliminary analysis of the model in the vegetative and ... -
A Review of the Mathematical Models for Brucellosis Infectiology and Control Strategies
Nyerere, Nkuba; Luboobi, Livingstone; Mpeshe, Saul; Shirima, Gabriel (Journal of Mathematics and Informatics, 2020-07-21)Brucellosis is a zoonotic bacterial infection that can be acquired by humans from infected animals' meat, urine, body fluids, aborted materials, unpasteurized milk, and milk products or contaminated environment. Mathematical ... -
Sensitivity analysis and numerical simulations for the mathematical model of rabies in human and animal within and around Addis ababa
Ega, Tesfaye Tadesse’; Luboobi, Livingstone; Kuznetsov, Dmitry; Kidane, Abraham Haile (Asian Journal of Mathematics and Applications, 2015)Rabies is one of the neglected tropical diseases that has persisted for centuries in Ethiopia, and it is endemic within and around Addis Ababa. For the purpose of studying the dynamics of the disease we propose a ...
