Approximate solution of the Fractional order model of HCV infection with drug therapy effect
About this article
Abstract
In this paper, we investigate the accuracy of the Generalized Euler method (GEM) for solving the fractional order model of HCV infection numerically. The fractional derivatives are described in the Caputo sense. We will study on the effect of treatment in blocking virion production and reducing new infections throughout the presented numerical simulation.References
