Gnathostomiasis is a system food-borne parasitic disease. Gnathostomiasis is usually consumed/ingested in contaminated raw fish, which is one of the main risk factors. The parasite can infect many animals including domestic ...
In the 1980s the world was hit by the HIV/AIDS pandemic which continues to claim a lot of
lives especially in Africa. While a lot has been done since its outbreak in an effort to have it
under control the need for funding ...
Musekwa, Regent Retrospect(Botswana International University of Science and Technology (BIUST), 2023-02)
We reviewed the generalized family of distributions called the Marshall-Olkin-G
Power Series (MO-GPS) family of distributions. Some special models of the MO-
GPS family of distributions are reviewed in detail. Some ...
Seabe, Omphile Nelson(Botswana International University of Science and Technology (BIUST), 2023-11-19)
This thesis investigates the dynamics of blood nanofluid and hybrid nanofluid flow over a vertical plate using fractional calculus, with radiation and vibration conditions. Two models are presented for the simulations, ...
Puoetsile, Agolame(Botswana International University of Science and Technology (BIUST), 2023-10-19)
This body of work makes use of the dynamics of Plant-Herbivore interaction based on Lotka-Voltera’s prey-predator model to study the relationship between traditional livestock production and vegetative conditions.This ...
Nyepetsi, Maipelo(Botswana International University of Science and Technology (BIUST), 2024-08)
Biodiesel is created through a transesterification reaction in which excess methanol reacts with triglycerides in the presence of a catalyst. The reaction is rather slow due to the poor miscibility of triglycerides with ...
Moakofi, Thatayaone(Botswana International University of Science and Technology (BIUST), 2024-01-08)
Although, the baseline distributions such as Lindley, Weibull, logistic, gamma, exponential
etc. have been widely used in statistical modeling, they however have shortcomings when
it comes to modeling some new emerging ...
Mapharing, Thuso Mpho(Botswana International University of Science and Technology (BIUST), 2024-08-09)
The main objective of this thesis is to introduce a more general problem called the Split Equality Variational Inequality Problems (SEVIP) and the Split Equality Duality Variational Inequality Problems (SEDVIP) and formulate ...
Madimabe, Edmond Bakang(Botswana International University of Science and Technology (BIUST), 2023-08)
The focus of this thesis is to demonstrate the existence of modulational instability (MI) in nonlinear exciton-polariton condensates (EPCs). Initially, I consider a set of coupled two-dimensional (2D) driven-dissipative ...
Lefatshe, Kebadiretse(Botswana International University of Science and Technology (BIUST), 2023-12)
In this work, ion implantation was selected for its ability to induce lattice defects and
imperfections thus modifying the properties of ZnO NRs. ZnO NRs were grown through the chemical bath deposition method and implanted ...
Kgatlane, Kgalalelo Phatsimo(Botswana International University of Science and Technology (BIUST), 2023-11)
Several mathematical tools for interpreting experimental data for non-isothermal heating protocols have been established. Such methods may generally be classified into two categories: model-fitting and model-free. Model-fitting ...
Gabanakgosi, Morongwa(Botswana International University of Science and Technology (BIUST), 2024-02-19)
This thesis is concerned with the construction and development of new families of distribu-
tions including the Topp-Leone type II exponentiated half logistic-G family of distributions, the Topp-Leone exponentiated half ...
This thesis presents several new generalized classes and families of distributions, namely, the log-logistic modified Weibull power series (LLoGMWPS) class of distributions, type II Topp-Leone exponentiated half logistic-G ...
Belay, Yirga Abebe(Botswana International University of Science and Technology (BIUST), 2024-07-30)
Many physical problems in real life can be modeled as nonlinear problems. In general, finding the exact solutions of many nonlinear problems is difficult. Thus, development of different approximation methods for solving ...
Ramodimo, Tsie(Botswana International University of Science and Technology (BIUST), 2022-11)
In this project we study permutable pairs of quasi-uniformities. Our objective is to
investigate the notion of permutability of quasi-uniformities in the context of conjugates,
complements, adjacent and independent ...
The purpose of this thesis is to look at how the Leray-Serre spectral sequence is constructed and explore some of their applications. For the purpose of this thesis, our spectral sequences will be based on filtered complexes, ...
We present three new extensions of the Type II Half Logistic Topp-Leone-G (TIIHLTL-G)
distribution: the Type II Half Logistic Topp-Leone-G Power Series (TIIHLTL-GPS) distribution, the Beta Type II Half Logistic Topp-Leone-G ...
Cancer remains one of the leading causes of death around the globe, whereas cancer
therapy continues to be a major challenge for contemporary medicine due to tumor mi-
croenvironments which include growth factors (cytokines ...
Molefe, Kedibonye(Botswana International University of Science and Technology (BIUST), 2022-10-21)
Foot and Mouth disease (FMD) remains a global concern despite that many developed
countries have eliminated it. This is because FMD is still endemic in some parts of the world,and it can spread around the world via several ...
