A Fractional Model for the Dynamics of Smoking Tobacco Using Caputo–Fabrizio Derivative

In this paper, we propose a Caputo–Fabrizio fractional derivative mathematical model consisting of smoker, people exposed to secondhand smoker, people exposed to thirdhand smoker, and quitters. Secondhand smoke exposure consists of an unintentional inhalation of smoke that occurs close to people smo...

description In this paper, we propose a Caputo–Fabrizio fractional derivative mathematical model consisting of smoker, people exposed to secondhand smoker, people exposed to thirdhand smoker, and quitters. Secondhand smoke exposure consists of an unintentional inhalation of smoke that occurs close to people smoking and/or in indoor environments where tobacco was recently used, and thirdhand smoke consists of pollutants that remain on surfaces and in dust after tobacco has been smoked, are reemitted into the gas phase, or react with other compounds in the environment to form secondary pollutants. The solution of the proposed model, which is carried out using a fixed-point theorem and an iterative method, exists and is unique. Furthermore, the model is biologically meaningful, that is, positive and bounded. The reproduction number R0 is determined from the model. If R0<1, the smoking-free equilibrium point is asymptotically stable, and if R0>1, the smoking-free equilibrium point is unstable. The results confirm that the smoking-free equilibrium point becomes increasingly stable as the fractional order is increased. Numerical simulations are performed using a three-step Adams-Moulton predictor-corrector method for a range of fractional orders to show the effects of varying the fractional order and to support the theoretical results.
