Abstract

Public health is constantly under risk due to growing microorganisms. Infectious disease spread rapidly among the population in contact and so people take the different steps to reduce the transmission of disease. Compartmental model such as SIR model developed by W. Kermack and G Mckendrick are modeled for the progress of epidemic. Fixed point analysis has been applied to mathematical models of compartmental infectious disease models for understanding the long term outcome of disease. We have applied the analysis to the spread of infectious disease and obtained the threshold value and this threshold value helps us to predict when epidemic peaks.

Keyphrases: fixed point, reproduction number, threshold value
