We present a new class of distributions called the Topp-Leone-G Power Series (TL-GPS) class of distributions. This
model is obtained by compounding the Topp-Leone-G distribution with the power series distribution. Statistical ...
The development of transparent conducting oxide materials has gained an increased interest in the scientific community for developing efficient low cost optoelectronic devices. The effect of Cd precursor on structural and ...
Hierarchical multilevel multi-leader multi-follower problems are non-cooperative decision
problems in which multiple decision-makers of equal status in the upper-level and multiple decision makers of equal status are ...

We propose a modified version of the Bennett–Brassard 1984 quantum key distribution
protocol intended to tolerate losses, certain forms of noise, and the so-called photon number splitting attack. These are the issues ...

Evaluation of concentration of heavy metals found in shooting range soil
is important in assessing the pollution risk posed to biota. Soil samples from five
shooting ranges found in Botswana were used in this study. All ...

Let Grk,n be the complex Grassmann manifold of k-linear subspaces in ℂn. We compute rational relative Gottlieb groups of the embedding i:Grk,n Grk,n+r and show that the G-sequence is exact if r≥kn-k.

The removal of textile wastes is a priority due to their mutagenic and carcinogenic properties. In this study, bismuth oxyhalide was used in the removal of methylene blue (MB) which is a textile waste. The main objective ...
The Botswana Police Pathology unit records show that a total of 368 cases of suicide were reported between 2016 and 2019. A total of 367 of these cases were suicide by hanging while only 1 was of suicide by self-strangulation. ...

Biodiesel has emerged as a promising alternative fuel to replace dwindling fossil-based resources, particularly in view of its added environmental merit of reducing additional air pollution. Its specific attraction stems ...
We propose a mathematical model to investigate the effects of information–dependent vaccination behavior on meningitis transmission. The information is represented by means of information index as early proposed by d'Onofrio ...

A theoretical study is presented of peristaltic hydrodynamics of an aqueous electrolytic non-Newtonian Jeffrey bio-rheological fluid through an asymmetric microchannel under an applied axial electric field. An analytical ...
The dynamics of light bullets propagating in nonlinear media with linear/nonlinear, gain/loss and coupling described by the (2+1)-dimensional vectorial cubic–quintic complex Ginzburg–Landau (CGL) equations is considered. ...
Overuse of pesticides in vegetables and related fresh products raises serious public health concerns. However, the recognition and assessment of the magnitude of public health risk remains a low priority in low income ...
Global Navigation Satellite System Reflectometry (GNSSR) can be used to derive information about the composition or the properties of ground surfaces, by analyzing signals emitted by GNSS satellites and reflected from the ...
This review paper presents and analyzes previous studies on wingtip devices mainly to reduce induced drag on fixed-wing aircraft and drones. Some of the parameters discussed are the different types of winglets, cant angles, ...
