Abstract

Dengue is a viral infection which is carried by Aedes mosquitoes that are found in tropical and warm
areas. Because of a tropical climate, the disease has become a widespread problem in Thailand.
According to the research, there are patients with dengue every year in Lopburi province. Each year,
the number of patients is not stable, so the researchers have created A Mathematical Model of Dengue
hemorrhagic fever in Lopburi province to analyze the factors affecting the dengue epidemic. Using
mathematical models as a tool leads to solutions to the dengue epidemic. The analysis showed the
factors that affect the dengue outbreak related to the self-care behavior of people in Lopburi province
and environmental factors. The dengue epidemic data are analyzed using the value of and .
