20.500.12556/DKUM-90123 Individual-based modelling and control of bovine brucellosis We present a theoretical approach to control bovine brucellosis. We have used individual-based modelling, which is a network-type alternative to compartmental models. Our model thus considers heterogeneous populations, and spatial aspects such as migration among herds and control actions described as pulse interventions are also easily implemented. We show that individual-based modelling reproduces the mean field behaviour of an equivalent compartmental model. Details of this process, as well as flowcharts, are provided to facilitate the reproduction of the presented results. We further investigate three numerical examples using real parameters of herds in the São Paulo state of Brazil, in scenarios which explore eradication, continuous and pulsed vaccination and meta-population effects. The obtained results are in good agreement with the expected behaviour of this disease, which ultimately showcases the effectiveness of our theory. bovine brucellosis individual-based model mathematical epidemiology goveja bruceloza posamično-utemeljen model matematična epidemiologija true false true Angleški jezik Slovenski jezik Znanstveno delo 2024-08-23 04:11:07 2025-02-26 09:58:30 2025-02-27 03:11:28 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2018 0 0 str. 1-12 št. 5 Letn. 5 2018 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova Objavljeno apc 2018-02-06 2018-03-26 2018-05-02 51-7 24056072 10.1098/rsos.180200 2054-5703 RAZ_Nepomuceno_Erivelton_G._2018.pdf RAZ_Nepomuceno_Erivelton_G._2018.pdf 1 1E0CE2A3CCD90F7DC754442DB5DD046D a7aaf0b5acb26c546add5de239f43c61c9452c72761c44097c7ff8a8f8fd14e4 b9c1fedb-f41f-11ef-a5fa-00155d000105 https://dk.um.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=188834 http://dx.doi.org/10.1098/rsos.180200 0 cb142daa-f41f-11ef-a5fa-00155d000105 https://dk.um.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=188835 Fakulteta za naravoslovje in matematiko 0 0 0
