Abstract

Recently, many researchers have focused on modeling and analyz- ing various problems in biological phenomena and life sciences such as viruses and nervous system. One of these cases can be seen in the modeling of the Ebola virus. In this paper, we present an efficient method based on properties of Bernstein’s operational matrices as well as dual Bernstein for the system of nonlinear equations of Ebola virus in the Caputo fractional sense. The op- erational matrix of the fractional derivative of order v is obtained based on the dual Bernstein. The proposed dual Bernstein method reduces the solution of the Ebola virus in fractional sense to the solution of a system of nonlin- ear algebraic equations. The unknown coefficients are obtained by solving the final system of nonlinear equations using the Newton-Raphson method. An- other feature of this method is that a reasonable approximate solution can be found with a small number of bases. Moreover, some numerical treatments of fractional models of Ebola Virus are examined. The existence, uniqueness and stability of the suggested methodologies are discussed and proven. Nu- merical simulations are reported for various fractional orders and by using comparisons between the simulated and measured data, we find the best value of the fractional order. Finally, we will use the data provided by the World Health Organization (WHO) and we compare the fractional Mellin transform, real data, Caputo’s derivative, and the classical model. According to the ob- tained results, the ordinary derivative is less accurate than the fractional order model. In other words, the results showed that fractional order derivatives are superior to classical orders, more reliable and effective in describing biological processes.
