摘要

In this manuscript, we develop a mobility-based Susceptible-Infectious-Recovered (SIR) model to elucidate the dynamics of pandemic propagation. While traditional SIR models within the field of epidemiology aptly characterize transitions among susceptible, infected, and recovered states, they typically neglect the inherent spatial mobility of particles. To address this limitation, we introduce a novel dynamical SIR model that incorporates nonlocal spatial motion for three distinct particle types, thereby bridging the gap between epidemiological theory and real-world mobility patterns. This paper primarily focuses on analyzing the long-term behavior of this dynamic system, with specific emphasis on the computation of first and second moments. We propose a new reproduction number $R_0^m$ $R_{0}^{m}$ and compare it with the classical reproduction number $R_0$ $R_{0}$ in the traditional SIR model. Furthermore, we rigorously examine the phenomenon of intermittency within the context of this enhanced SIR model. The results contribute to a more comprehensive understanding of pandemic spread dynamics, considering both the interplay between disease transmission and population mobility and the impact of spatial motion on the system’s behavior over time.
