func_time_beta: Functional form of the intensity (beta) as a function of t.

In holaanna/contactsimulator: Contact model simulator

Description

func_time_beta returns the value of the intensity as a function of t.

Usage

func_time_beta(t, t_intervention, sum_beta, epsilon, omega, beta_1)

Arguments

t, t_intervention	Time of the contact and the introduction of the control respectively espressed in days.
sum_beta, epsilon	Total risk from infected premisses and the primary infection rate respectively.
omega	Introduses the effect of seasonality in the infection rate.

Details

The particular case of transmission rate used here is given by

β(t)= n(t)β + ε)cos^2(ω t) if t<t_interventioin

where n(t) is the size of potential sources.

Value

It returns the rate of infection in the non-homogeneous poisson process.
