Abstract

In this study, a
mathematical model in form fractional-order differential equations (FDE) system
identifying population dynamics in two species bacteria struggling one another
and exposed to multiple antibiotics simultaneously, was suggested. Stability
analysis of the equilibrium points of the proposed model was also carried out.
Additionally, the results of the analysis have promoted by numerical simulations.

Keywords

Fractional-order differential equation, Stability analysis, Numerical simulation
