This edited volume is a collection of selected research articles discussing the analysis of infectious diseases by using mathematical modelling in recent times. Divided into two parts, the book gives a general and country-wise analysis of Covid-19. Analytical and numerical techniques for virus models are presented along with the application of mathematical modelling in the analysis of their spreading rates and treatments. The book also includes applications of fractional differential equations as well as ordinary, partial and integrodifferential equations with optimization methods. Probability distribution and their bio-mathematical applications have also been studied. This book is a valuable resource for researchers, scholars, biomathematicians and medical experts.

Discusses recent developments in the analysis of infectious diseases by using mathematical modelling Studies the analysis of spreading rates and treatments of infectious diseases, including Covid-19 Includes selected research articles with rigorous mathematical approaches and proofs Appeals to researchers, scholars, biomathematicians and medical experts
