The role of mobility and sanitary measures on the delay of community transmission of COVID-19 in Costa Rica
(2021-07-21)
The aim of this paper is to infer the effects that change on human mobility had on the transmission dynamics during the first four months of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic in Costa Rica, which could have played a role in delaying ...
Wavelet analysis of dengue incidence and its correlation with weather and vegetation variables in Costa Rica
(2021)
Dengue represents a serious public health problem in tropical and subtropical regions worldwide. The number of dengue cases and its geographical expansion has increased in recent decades, driven mostly after by social and ...
A BDDC algorithm with deluxe scaling for H(curl) in two dimensions with irregular subdomains
(2015)
A bound is obtained for the condition number of a BDDC algorithm for problems posed in H(curl) in two dimensions, where the subdomains are only assumed to be uniform in the sense of Peter Jones. For the primal variable ...
A partial differential equation model with age-structure and nonlinear recidivism: Conditions for a backward bifurcation and a general numerical implementation
(2019-12-15)
We formulate an age-structured three-staged nonlinear partial differential equation model that features nonlinear recidivism to the infected (infectious) class from the temporarily recovered class. Equilibria are computed, ...
An overlapping Schwarz method for virtual element discretizations in two dimensions
(2019)
A new coarse space for domain decomposition methods is presented for nodal ellipticproblems in two dimensions. The coarse space is derived from the novel virtual elementmethods and therefore can accommodate quite irregular ...
Mathematical and Statistical models as tools for the control ofmosquito-borne diseases: The experience of Costa Rica
(2021-06-25)
The modeling of infectious diseases provides valuable input in the development of mitigating strategies and implementation of public health interventions. We highlight results and current research conducted in Costa Rica ...
Virtual Coarse Spaces for Irregular Subdomain Decompositions
(2020-10-25)
On the other hand, Virtual Element Methods (VEM) [1, 12, 13] allow to handle general polygonal elements. In the case of triangular elements, VEM reduces to the usual FEM. Thus, VEM is a natural choice for constructing space ...
Dengue model with early-life stage of vectors and age-structure within host
Modelo de dengue con etapa temprana en vectores y estructura de edad en el huésped
(2019-12)
We construct an epidemic model for the transmission of dengue fever with an early-life stage in the vector dynamics and age-structure within hosts. The early-life stage of the vector is modeled via a general function that ...
A Multilayer Network Model implementation for COVID-19
(2021)
We present a numerical implementation for a multilayer network to model the transmission of Covid-19 or other diseases with a similar transmission mechanism. The model incorporates different contact types between individuals ...
On the approximation of a virtual coarse space for domain decomposition methods in two dimensions
(2018)
A new extension operator for a virtual coarse space is presented which can be used in domain decomposition methods for nodal elliptic problems in two dimensions. In particular, a two-level overlapping Schwarz algorithm is ...
