pandemic-simulations

A simulation model for pandemic spread using population dynamics of infectious diseases

Installation

To download repo you can:

• Use git clone:

  https://github.com/AmeanAsad/pandemic-simulations.git  

• Download zip file from Git.

After download, you need to install required packages:

• Open terminal
• cd to the root directory of the repo.
• Run pip install -r requirements.txt

Usage

Here is a sample to run the Pandemic Model:

  
     size = 300
     nodes = 160
     infectionRate = 0.5
     radius = 7
     speed = 1.9
     steps = 50
     pandemic = PandemicSpread(size, nodes, infectionRate, radius, speed)
     pandemic.startInfection()
     pandemic.deployNodes()

     for step in range(steps):
         pandemic.takeStep()
   

To run the Visualizations, open the visualizations.py folder and:

• Run SirModelPlot() to visualize the SIR stack plot.
• Run visualizeParticles() to visualize the particle simulation.
