Stability and Hopf Bifurcation Analysis of an Epidemic Model by Using the Method of Multiple Scales
A delayed epidemic model with nonlinear incidence rate which depends on the ratio of the numbers of susceptible and infectious individuals is considered. By analyzing the corresponding characteristic equations, the effects of time delay on the stability of the equilibria are studied. By choosing tim...
