    Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) poses a significant global health threat due to its ability to cause chronic liver inflammation, leading to severe complications such as cirrhosis and liver cancer. This study presents a novel epidemic model of Hepatitis B virus that integrates a constant vaccination strategy alongside the Crowley-Martin perspective. In this study, we investigate the dynamic properties of a hepatitis B epidemic model, focusing on key metrics such as the basic reproduction number (RN), which indicates the average number of secondary infections produced by one infected individual in a fully susceptible population. We analyze stability characteristics to determine how the system behaves over time, ensuring that populations remain bounded and non-negative. Using the Bendixson theorem, we confirm that the disease-free equilibrium point is globally asymptotically stable, meaning that if the system starts without the disease, it will remain disease-free over time. Our analysis also reveals a transcritical bifurcation at RN = 1, indicating a critical threshold where the dynamics of the system change; below this threshold, the disease cannot sustain itself, while above it, the disease can persist. For RN > 1, we establish the globally asymptotic stability of the endemic equilibrium point, where the disease persists in the population, using Dulac’s criteria. To validate our theoretical findings, weemploy numerical simulations using the Non-Standard Finite Difference (NSFD) scheme. The phaseplane analysis at h = 0:1 demonstrates superior efficiency and high accuracy in establishing the globalasymptotic stability of E∗, outperforming traditional methods such as the Runge-Kutta (RK4) and Eulermethods.

  • A role of fear on diseased food web model with multiple functional response

    Physical Biology, 2025
    In this paper, we analyze the role of fear in a three-species non-delayed ecological model that examines the interactions among susceptible prey, infectious (diseased) prey, and predators within a food web. The prey population grows in a logistic manner until it achieves a carrying capacity, reflecting common population dynamics in the absence of predators. Diseased prey is assumed to transmit infection to healthful prey by the use of a Holling type II reaction. Predators, alternatively, are modeled to consume their prey using Beddington–DeAngelis and Crowley–Martin response features. This evaluation specializes in ensuring the non-negativity of solutions, practical constraints on population dynamics, and long-term stability of the system. Each biologically possible equilibrium point is tested to understand the environmental stable states. Local stability is assessed through eigenvalue analysis, while global stability of positive equilibria is evaluated by the use of Lyapunov features to determine the overall stability of the model. Furthermore, Hopf bifurcation is explored primarily based on infection rate ɛ. Numerical simulations are carried out to validate the theoretical effects and offer practical insights into the model behaviour under specific conditions.
