ABSTRACT
In this paper, the differential
transformation method (DTM) is employed to find the semi-analytical
solutions of SIS and SI epidemic models for
constant population. Firstly, the theoretical background of DTM is
studied and followed by constructing the solutions of SIS and
SI
epidemic models. Furthermore, the convergence analysis
of DTM
is proven by proposing two theorems. Finally, numerical
computations are made and compared with the exact solutions. From
the numerical results, the solutions produced by DTM approach the exact solutions which agreed with the proposed
theorems. It can be seen that the DTM is
an alternative technique to be considered in solving many practical
problems involving differential equations.
Keywords: Differential
transformation method (DTM); exact solution; semi-analytical
solution; SIS model; SI model
ABSTRAK
Dalam kajian ini,
kaedah transformasi pembezaan (DTM) telah
digunakan untuk
mencari penyelesaian separuh-analisis bagi model epidemik SIS dan
SI
untuk populasi
malar. Pertama, latar belakang
teori DTM telah
dikaji dan
diikuti dengan membina penyelesaian bagi model epidemik SIS
dan SI. Selain itu,
analisis konvergensi
DTM
telah dibuktikan melalui cadangan dua teorem. Akhir sekali, pengiraan berangka dibuat dan dibandingkan dengan penyelesaian tepat. Daripada keputusan berangka, penyelesaian yang diperoleh melalui DTM adalah
hampir sama
dengan penyelesaian

DTM
adalah satu
teknik alternatif yang boleh dipertimbangkan untuk menyelesaikan banyak masalah praktikal yang melibatkan persamaan pembezaan.
