Abstract

The SEIR model for the transmission dynamics of measles is extended by the addition of second-order space derivatives to enable the geographic spread of the disease in a population which has not been vaccinated against it.The resulting system of three reaction-diffusion equations is solved by a convergent finite-difference technique which is second-order accurate in space and time. A parallel implementation procedure is studied and the method is tested using two initial distributions.
