Since the first confirmed case of SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus (COVID-19) on March 02, 2020, Saudi Arabia has not reported quite a rapid COVD-19 spread as seen in America and many European countries. Possible causes include the spread of asymptomatic COVID-19 cases. To characterize the transmission of COVID-19 in Saudi Arabia, a susceptible, exposed, symptomatic, asymptomatic, hospitalized, and recovered dynamical model was formulated, and a basic analysis of the model is presented including model positivity, boundedness, and stability around the disease-free equilibrium. It is found that the model is locally and globally stable around the disease-free equilibrium when . The model parameterized from COVID-19 confirmed cases reported by the Ministry of Health in Saudi Arabia (MOH) from March 02 till April 14, while some parameters are estimated from the literature. The numerical simulation showed that the model predicted infected curve is in good agreement with the real data of COVID-19-infected cases. An analytical expression of the basic reproduction number is obtained, and the numerical value is estimated as .
The complex dynamics of a slow-fast predator-prey interaction with herd behavior are examined in this work. We investigate the presence and stability of fixed points. By employing the bifurcation theory, it is shown that the model undergoes both a period-doubling and a Neimark-Sacker bifurcation at the interior fixed point. Under the influence of period-doubling and Neimark-Sacker bifurcations, chaos is controlled using the hybrid control approach. Moreover, numerical simulations are carried out to highlight the model's complexity and show how well they agree with analytical findings. Employing the slow-fast factor as the bifurcation parameter shows that the model goes through a Neimark-Sacker bifurcation for greater values of the slow-fast factor at the interior fixed point. This makes sense because if the slow-fast factor is large, the growth rates of the predator and its prey will be about identical, automatically causing the interior fixed point to become unstable owing to the predator's slow growth.
The authors deal with nonlinear and general Hammerstein-type functional integral equations (HTFIEs). The first objective of this work is to apply and extend Burton’s method to general and nonlinear HTFIEs in a Banach space via the Chebyshev norm and complete metric. The second objective of the paper is to extend and improve some earlier results to nonlinear HTFIEs. The authors prove two new theorems with regard to the existence and uniqueness of solutions (EUSs) of HTFIEs via a technique called progressive contractions, which belongs to T. A. Burton, and the Chebyshev norm and complete metric.
Magneto-electro-elastic materials, a novel class of smart materials, exhibit remarkable energy conversion properties, making them highly suitable for applications in nanotechnology. This study focuses on various aspects of the fractional nonlinear longitudinal wave equation (FNLWE) that models wave propagation in a magneto-electro-elastic circular rod. Using the direct algebraic method, several new soliton solutions were derived under specific parameter constraints. In addition, Galilean transformation was employed to explore the system’s sensitivity and quasi-periodic dynamics. The study incorporates 2D, 3D, and time-series visualizations as effective tools for analyzing quasi-periodic behavior. The results contribute to a deeper understanding of the nonlinear dynamical features of such systems and demonstrate the robustness of the applied methodologies. This research not only extends existing knowledge of nonlinear wave equations but also introduces a substantial number of new solutions with broad applicability.
Natural symmetry exists in several phenomena in physics, chemistry, and biology. Incorporating these symmetries in the differential equations used to characterize these processes is thus a valid modeling assumption. The present study investigates COVID-19 infection through the stochastic model. We consider the real infection data of COVID-19 in Saudi Arabia and present its detailed mathematical results. We first present the existence and uniqueness of the deterministic model and later study the dynamical properties of the deterministic model and determine the global asymptotic stability of the system for . We then study the dynamic properties of the stochastic model and present its global unique solution for the model. We further study the extinction of the stochastic model. Further, we use the nonlinear least-square fitting technique to fit the data to the model for the deterministic and stochastic case and the estimated basic reproduction number is . We show that the stochastic model provides a good fitting to the real data. We use the numerical approach to solve the stochastic system by presenting the results graphically. The sensitive parameters that significantly impact the model dynamics and reduce the number of infected cases in the future are shown graphically.
