  • Abstract
    We study different t-norms in epidemiological mathematical models. We explore the SI model, which encounter between individuals is originally modelled by the product operation (also a t-norm). We discuss the differences and advantages of using one or another t-norm. Finally, we compare the solutions provided by each approach.
