  • Abstract
    Saturating contact rate of individual contacts is very important in an epidemiology model. A class of SIR model with saturation incidence and age of infection is formulated in this paper. The dynamical behavior of the model is studied and the basic reproductive number R0 is defined. It is proved that the diseased-free equilibrium is globally asymptotically stable if R0 < 1. The endemic equilibrium is locally asymptotically stable if K1 > alpha and R0 > 1.
