Field Evaluation of a Push-Pull System to Reduce Malaria Transmission
(Plos One, 2015-04-29)
Malaria continues to place a disease burden on millions of people throughout the tropics, especially in sub-Saharan Africa. Although efforts to control mosquito populations and reduce human-vector contact, such as long-lasting ...
Understanding the Long-Lasting Attraction of Malaria Mosquitoes to Odor Baits
(Plos One, 2015-02-23)
The use of odor baits for surveillance and control of malaria mosquitoes requires robust dispensing tools. In this study, the residual activity of a synthetic mosquito attractant blend dispensed from nylon or low density ...
Innovative Tools and OpenHDS for Health and Demographic Surveillance on Rusinga Island, Kenya
(BMC, 2015-09-01)
Health in low and middle income countries is on one hand characterized by a high burden associated with preventable communicable diseases and on the other hand considered to be under-documented due to improper basic health ...
Conditions for Positivity of Operators in Non-unital C*-algebras
(International Journal of Mathematical Analysis, 1/9/2015)
In this paper, we present results on the necessary and sufficient condi-tions for positivity of operators in non-unital C*- algebras
Mathematical modeling of insulin therapy in patients with diabetes mellitus
(2015)
This study presents a Mathematical Model Insulin Therapy in Patients with Diabetes Mellitus which includes external rate at which blood glucose, insulin and epinephrine are being increased in the form, Y =AY+r (t) and ...
Finite difference solution of (2+1)-dimensional sine-gordon equation: A model for investigating the effects of varying surface damping parameter on josephson current flowing through the long josephson junction
(International Journal of Science and Research (IJSR), 2015)
Modeling of some physical phenomena and technological processes taking into account dissipation leads to the Sine-Gordon equation with the first time derivative. The (2+1) Sine-Gordon equation with the first time derivative ...
Finite difference solution of (1+1) sinegordon equation: A mathematical model for the rigid pendula attached to a stretched wire
(The SIJ Transactions on Computer Science Engineering & its Applications (CSEA), 2015-04)
The nonlinear (1+1) Sine-Gordon equation that governs the vibrations of the rigid pendula attached to a stretched wire is solved. The equation is discretized and solved by Finite Difference Method with specific initial and ...
Construction of nominal yield curve for Nairobi securities exchange: an improvement on monotone preserving r(t)t interpolation method
(Scientific Research Publishing Inc., 2015-11)
There is no agreed-upon method used to construct yield curves at the Nairobi Securities Exchange. The existing practice is that each financial company uses in-house methods to construct the yield curves for their pricing ...
Deterministic mathematical model for fish harvesting
(INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENGINEERING SCIENCES & RESEARCH TECHNOLOGY, 2015)
Differential equations have been used to create mathematical models of real world systems in which rates of change are involved, for example in the study of how population grows or shrinks. One of the earliest models by ...
