    Abstract: Meningococcal meningitis is a significant contributor to increased deaths globally, particularly the vulnerable children aged between 0-5 years. This paper formulates a robust two-strain epidemic model for the transmission dynamics of bacterial meningitis by incorporating interventions such as treatment and vaccination. The aim of the article is to... Show More

    Abstract: A normalized pneumonia mathematical model is formulated and analyzed to describe the transmission dynamics of pneumonia disease with a varying population size and in the presence of drug resistance threats. The main aim of the study is to formulate and analyze a pneumonia optimal control model that implements varied control strategies against antib... Show More

    Abstract: In this paper, Stokes first problem for an unsteady hydromagnetic free convective flow of a viscous incompressible fluid past an infinite vertical porous plate subjected to a variable suction in a rotating system has been studied. The specific equations governing the flow are nondimensionalized to obtain the dimensionless forms of the governing equ... Show More
