An SIRS Epidemic Model with Vital Dynamics and a Ratio-Dependent Saturation Incidence Rate
This paper presents an investigation on the dynamics of an epidemic model with vital dynamics and a nonlinear incidence rate of saturated mass action as a function of the ratio of the number of the infectives to that of the susceptibles. The stabilities of the disease-free equilibrium and the endemi...
