Optimizing vaccine allocation in an age-structured SIR model
LuÃs Almeida, Romain Ducasse, Elisa Paparelli
We study an optimal control problem where the objective is to find the best vaccine allocation during an epidemic outbreak. The epidemic dynamics is described by an age-structured…
Rolling carpet strategy to reduce mosquito populations in two-dimensional space
LuÃs Almeida, Alexis Léculier, Nga Nguyen +1
Mosquitoes are vectors of numerous diseases; a strategy to fight the spread of these diseases is to control the vector population. In this article, we focus on the use of the steri…
Analysis of a toy model for optimal crop protection
Luis Almeida, Aymeric Jacob de Cordemoy, Ayman Moussa +1
In this paper we investigate an optimal control problem involving a toy model for the protection on a crop field. Precisely, we consider a protection on a crop field and we want to…
Optimal strategies for Wolbachia mosquito replacement technique: influence of the carrying capacity on spatial releases
Luis Almeida, Jesús Bellver Arnau, Gwenaël Peltier +1
This work is devoted to the mathematical study of an optimization problem regarding control strategies of mosquito population in a heterogeneous environment. Mosquitoes are well-kn…
Global stabilization of a Sterile Insect Technique model by feedback laws
Kala Agbo Bidi, LuÃs Almeida, Jean-Michel Coron
This work concerns feedback global stabilization of the sterile insect technique dynamics. The Sterile Insect Technique (SIT) is presently one of the most ecological methods for co…
