Abstract: | A semi-Markov multi-compart mental system in which particles reproduce similar particles as a Markov branching process and being subjected to disasters is studied. Expressions for the mean number of particles alive at time t in each compartment are obtained. The results concerning irreversible, mammillarian and catenary compartmental systems have been discussed. |
