Compute the p
by p
matrix \(\mathcal{V}\) whose columns describe
how infective bites arising from all the mosquitoes biting a single human on a
single day are dispersed to other patches, accounting for movement and mortality.
$$\mathcal{V} = fq\Omega^{-1} \cdot e^{-\Omega\tau} \cdot \mbox{diag}\left(\frac{fqM}{W}\right)$$
Arguments
- f
the feeding rate
- q
fraction of bloodmeals taken on humans
- Omega
the mosquito demography matrix
- tau
duration of the extrinsic incubation period
- M
size of mosquito population in each patch
- W
ambient human population at each patch
Value
a numeric matrix
