Project Overview:

This project describes an SIR-based co-infection model. The host dynamics have been linked to the within-host dynamics through the transmission and infection dependent death rate. Within-host dynamics are described with Lotka-Volterra competition dynamics. Variables values are defined in the script and linked between scripts. This means a change in a withinHost_model variable value affects the host_model output, but can also affect the plot outputs.

Scripts in this prject:

Models:

• withinHost_model.py
• invasionAnalysis.py
• host_model.py

Plotting of varying parameter values and effect on host population:

• plot_alphas.py
• plot_K.py
• cdelta_plot.py

Software:

Python 3.7.1

packages:

• numpy (version 1.16.2)
• matplotlib (version 3.0.3)
• scipy (version 1.2.1)
• seaborn (version 0.9.0)
