Abstract
This work investigates a fractional Susceptible Infected Recovered (SIR) model to study childhood disease. We analyzed the proposed model by applying Caputo, Caputo–Fabrizio, and Atangana–Baleanu fractional derivatives. Here, we use the fractional Adams–Bashforth method to solve the childhood disease model with nonlocal operator. The proposed numerical technique is developed by combining the fundamental theorem of integral calculus with Lagrange's interpolation. This numerical approach is more efficient than the other existing numerical techniques and is easily computed using Matlab as a programming language. The existence and uniqueness of this fractional model are studied with the fixed‐point theorem. These fractional derivatives show different asymptotic behaviors for the distinct values of the fractional order. The numerical results are presented graphically as well as in tabulated form for some value of fractional order.
