The season- ality in outbreak is natural among infectious diseases, as the common influenza, A type H1N1 influenza and so on. It is shown that there exist chaotic phenomena in the epidemic model. Furthermore, the tracking control method is used to control chaotic motions in the epidemic model. A feedback controller is designed to achieve tracking of an ideal out- put. Thus, the density of infected individuals can converge to zero, in other words, thedisease can be disappeared. Finally, numerical simulations illustrate that the controller is effective.展开更多
