Abstract

Programs of symbolic manipulation are used to analyze stability of equilibria of a model of infectious diseases with two transmission routes. The condition of the transition from disease-persistent state to disease-free state is obtained. The listed MACSYMA programs can also be used to verify the Routh-Hurwitz conditions for the stability analysis of other systems.
