Item Mathematical model for control of tuberculosis epidemiology(Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2022-04-22) Mayowa M. Ojo; Olumuyiwa James Peter; Emile Franc Doungmo Goufo; Hasan S. Panigoro; Festus Abiodun OguntoluTuberculosis is an infectious disease caused by bacteria that most commonly affects the lungs. Due to its high mortality, it remains a global health issue, and it is one of the leading causes of death in the majority of sub-Saharan African countries. We formulate a six-compartmental deterministic model to investigate the impact of vaccination on the dynamics of tuberculosis in a given population. The qualitative behaviors of the presented model were examined, and the respective threshold quantity was obtained. The tuberculosis-free equilibrium of the system is said to be locally asymptotically stable when the effective reproduction number and unstable otherwise. Furthermore, we examined the stability of the endemic equilibrium, and the conditions for the existence of backward bifurcation are discussed. A numerical simulation was performed to demonstrate and support the theoretical findings. The result shows that reducing the effective contact with an infected person and enhancing the rate of vaccinating susceptible individuals with high vaccine efficacy will reduce the burden of tuberculosis in the population.Item Mathematical model and analysis of the soil-transmitted helminth infections with optimal control(Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2024-02) Festus Abiodun Oguntolu; Olumuyiwa James Peter; Abubakar Yusuf; B. I. Omede; G. Bolarin; T. A. AyoolaSoil-transmitted helminth diseases are highly prevalent in impoverished regions and pose a significant health burden on the global population. These diseases are primarily transmitted through the contamination of soil with human faces containing parasite eggs. This study presents a novel deterministic mathematical model to comprehensively investigate the dynamics of helminth infection transmission through the soil. The mathematical model exhibits two equilibrium points: the diseases-free equilibrium point (DFE) and the endemic equilibrium point (EEP). The DFE is proven to be locally and globally asymptotically stable when the basic reproduction number is less than one, indicating the potential for disease eradication. Conversely, the EEP is locally asymptotically stable when the basic reproduction number exceeds unity, representing a persistent endemic state. To explore effective intervention strategies for controlling the spread of these infections, optimal control theory is applied. The study incorporates two time-varying control variables derived from sensitivity analysis: the rate of hygiene consciousness in the susceptible class and the rate of hygiene consciousness in the infectious class. Numerical simulations demonstrate that implementing optimal control strategies can successfully curb and mitigate soil-transmitted helminth infections. Overall, this research highlights the importance of proactive and targeted interventions, emphasizing the significance of hygiene education and awareness campaigns. By implementing optimal control measures based on the proposed strategies, the burden of soil-transmitted helminth diseases can be significantly reduced, improving public health in affected regions.Item Modeling prevalence of meningitis control strategies through evaluating with available data on meningitis cases reported in Nigeria(Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2025-05-14) O.J. Peter; F.A. Oguntolu; N. Nyerere; A. El-MesadyMeningitis is a major public health concern, especially in developing nations, due to its devastating consequences for human health. Although modeling studies have examined disease transmission dynamics, little attention has been paid to how control strategies affect the behavior of different population groups, including carriers, symptomatic individuals, hospitalized patients, and those in intensive care. This study proposes a computational framework that compares the effectiveness of vaccination of people at risk of the disease versus treating symptomatic infected persons. The basic reproduction number is used to evaluate the equilibrium points. Assess the precision of the proposed model’s illustration to data. We fit the meningitis model using the information at our disposal on meningitis cases reported in Nigeria from the first week of January to the last week of December 2023; this was obtained from the Nigerian Center for Disease Control (NCDC) database. We also performed a sensitivity analysis using a normalized forward sensitivity index to see which parameters had significant effects on the effective reproduction number. The results of both analytical techniques and numerical simulations reveal that recruitment rate, vaccination, progression from carrier to symptomatic stages, and disease-induced death all significantly reduce the incidence and prevalence of meningitis in the community. The study findings could be used to inform decisions about meningitis control initiatives.Item On the verification of existence of backward bifurcation for a mathematical model of cholera dynamics(African Journals Online, 2023-09-12) A. A. Ayoade; O. J. Peter; F. A. Oguntolu; C.Y. Ishola; S. AmadiegwuA cholera transmission model, which incorporates preventive measures, is studied qualitatively. The stability results together with the center manifold theory are used to investigate the existence of backward bifurcation for the model. The epidemiological consequence of backward bifurcation is that the disease may still persist in the population even when the classical requirement of the reproductive number being less than one is satisfied.Item Modelling fire spread reaction rate in atmospheric-weather condition(Science World Journal, 2021-08-11) A. B. Zhiri; R. O. Olayiwola; S. A. Somma; F. A. OguntoluFire spread in any fire environment is a thing of great concern as wind is arguably the most important weather factor that influences the spread of fire. In this paper, we present equations governing the phenomenon and assume the fire depends on the space variable x . Analytical solution is obtained via perturbation method, direct integration and eigenfunction expansion technique, which depicts the influence of parameters involved in the system. The effect of change in parameters such as Peclet mass number and Equilibrium wind velocity are presented graphically and discussed. The results obtained revealed that both Peclet mass number and Equilibrium wind velocity enhanced oxygen concentration during fire spread.Item Mathematical model for the control of lymphatic filariasis transmission dynamics(SCIK Publishing Corporation, 2021-02-23) Festus Abiodun Oguntolu; Gbolahan Bolarin; Olumuyiwa James Peter; Abdullah Idris Enagi; Kayode OshinubiIn this paper, a mathematical model for the transmission dynamics of lymphatic filariasis is presented by incorporating the infected without symptom, the infected with symptom and treatment compartments. The model is shown to have two equilibrium states: the disease-free equilibrium (DFE) and the endemic equilibrium states. An explicit formula for the effective reproduction number was obtained in terms of the demographic and epidemiological parameters of the model. Using the method of linearization, the disease-free equilibrium state was found to be locally asymptotically stable if the basic reproduction number is less than unity. By constructing a suitable Lyapunov function, the disease-free equilibrium state was found to be globally asymptotically stable. This means that lymphatic filariasis could be put under control in a population when the effective reproduction number is less than one. The endemic equilibrium state was found to be locally asymptotically stable. By constructing yet another Lyapunov function, the endemic equilibrium state was found to be globally asymptotically stable under certain conditions. Sensitivity analysis was carried out on the effective reproduction number, the most sensitive parameters were the treatment rate of human population and the infected rate of human population. Results from the simulation carried out showed that treatment level coverage of human population should target a success rate of 75% for LF to be under control in the population.Item Enhanced Cuckoo Intelligence Search Algorithm(Research India Publications, 2021-06-30) Ibukun Isaac Aina; Olumuyiwa James Peter; Abayomi Ayotunde Ayoade; Festus Abiodun Oguntolu; Matthew Olanrewaju OluwayemiCuckoo Search (CS) algorithm is a meta-heuristic technique that displays several merits. For example, it is easier to apply and less tuning parameters also, it is suitable for solving optimization problems. However, easily fall into local optimum has been established and has a slow convergence rate as a result of the cuckoo search parameters being kept constant. Therefore to handle this issue, an Enhanced Cuckoo Intelligence Search (ECIS) algorithm was developed which is an upgraded CS algorithm. The efficiency of ECIS was tested by some benchmark constrained optimization test functions and it was shown that ECIS gives a better optimal value than CS.Item Mathematical modelling for the transmission dynamics of Rift Valley fever virus with human host(Universitas Negeri Gorontalo, 2022-06-28) Festus Abiodun Oguntolu; Deborah W. Yavalah; Collins F. Udom; Olumuyiwa James Peter; Kayode OshinubiRift Valley Fever (RVF) is a viral zoonosis spread primarily by mosquitos that primarily affects livestock but has the potential to affect humans. Because of its potential to spread quickly and become an epidemic, it has become a public concern. In this article, the transmission dynamics of RVF with mosquito, livestock and human host using a compartmental model is studied and analyzed. The basic reproduction number R0 is computed using next generation matrix and the disease-free equilibrium state is found to be locally asymptotically stable if R0 < 1 which implies that rift valley fever could be put under control in a population where the reproduction number is less than 1. The numerical simulations give insightful results to further explore the dynamics of the disease based on the effect of three interventions; efficacy of vaccination, culling of livestock and trapping of mosquitoes introduced in the model.Item Fractional order mathematical model of monkeypox transmission dynamics(IOP Publishing, 2022-07-15) Olumuyiwa James Peter; Festus Abiodun Oguntolu; Mayowa M Ojo; Abdulmumin Olayinka Oyeniyi; Rashid Jan; Ilyas KhanIn this paper, we present a deterministic mathematical model of monkeypox virus by using both classical and fractional-order differential equations. The model includes all of the possible interactions that contribute to disease spread in the population. We investigate the model's stability results in the disease-free case when R0 < 1. When R0 < 1, we show that the model is stable, otherwise it is unstable. To obtain the best fit that describes the dynamics of this disease in Nigeria, the model is fitted using the nonlinear least square method on cumulative reported cases of monkeypox virus from Nigeria between January to December 2019. Furthermore, adequate conditions for the existence and uniqueness of the solution of the model have been proved. We run numerous simulations of the proposed monkeypox model with varied input parameters to investigate the intricate dynamics of monkeypox infection under the effect of various system input parameters. We investigate the system's dynamical behavior to develop appropriate infection control policies. This allows the public to understand the significance of control parameters in the eradication of monkeypox in the population. Lowering the order of fractional derivatives has resulted in significant modifications. To the community's policymakers, we offered numerous parameters for the control of monkeypox.Item Analysis and Dynamics of Tuberculosis Outbreak: A Mathematical Modelling Approach(Advances in Systems Sciences and Applications (ASSA), 2022-12-30) Oguntolu, Festus Abiodun; Peter, Olumuyiwa James; Oshinubi, Kayode; Ayoola, Tawakalt Abosede; Oladapo, Asimiyu Olalekan; Ojo, Mayowa MichaelTuberculosis (TB) is an infectious disease caused by mycobacterium disease which causes major ill health in humans. Control strategies like vaccines, early detention, treatment and isolation are required to minimize or eradicate this deadly pandemic disease. This article presents a novel mathematical modelling approach to tuberculosis disease using Vaccinated-Susceptible-Latent-Mild-Chronic-Isolated-Treated model. We examined if the epidemiology model is well posed and then obtained two equilibria points (disease free and endemic equilibrium). We also showed that TB disease free equilibrium is locally and globally asymptotically stable if . We solved the model analytically using Homotopy Perturbation Method (HPM) and the graphical representations and interpretations of various effects of the model parameters in order to measure the impact for effective disease control are presented. The findings show that infected populations will be reduced when the isolation and treatment rates and their effectiveness are high.
