Epidemic Simulator

Shoubhik Banerjee

Population Size:

Size of Human:

Probability of Infection:

Infection Radius:

Probability of People that are old (in percent):

Social Distancing Factor:

(Recommended to be set to 0 while in Market and Quarantine mode but feel free to experiment!)

Probability that an infected person is quarantined:

(Accounts for cases in which a person maybe infected but is not quarantined as he/she does not show symptoms. Works only in quarantine mode.)

Please watch the Simulating an Epidemic video to get a better understanding of the parameters.

• This Simulation is based on the SIRD (Susceptible, Infected, Recovered and Dead) model of infection spread.
• Aim of the project was to check how the older population is at a higher risk of death from such Epidemics.
• Every human has certain Probability of getting infected and recovers or dies after a period of around 12 days and further it cannnot infect other humans.
• Click Reset to accept changed parameter values or follow it up with a mode:
• Market Mode: Simulates situations in which people gather at a central location.
• Quarantine Mode: When activated it gathers the infected in the quarantine zone!
• Community Mode: Shows effects of community travel.
• Inspiration for the project: Simulating an Epidemic
