Modelling the Control of the Impact of Fall Armyworm (Spodoptera frugiperda) Infestations on Maize Production
(Hindawi, 2021-02-18)In this paper, we propose and analyze a stage-structured mathematical model for modelling the control of the impact of Fall Armyworm infestations on maize production. Preliminary analysis of the model in the vegetative and ... -
Modelling the dynamics of rabies transmission among dogs and to human and livestock in communities within and around Addis Ababa, Ethiopia
(NM-AIST, 2016-04)Rabies is one of the neglected tropical diseases that has persisted for centuries in Ethiopia, and it is endemic within and around Addis Ababa. In this dissertation, we propose a deterministic mathematical model with ... -
Modelling the impact of climate change on Tanzanian forests
(Wiley Online Library, 2020-08-31)Aim: Climate change is pressing extra strain on the already degraded forest eco system in Tanzania. However, it is mostly unknown how climate change will affect the distribution of forests in the future. We aimed to model ... -
Modelling the Impact of Human Population and Its Associated Pressure on Forest Biomass and Forest-Dependent Wildlife Population
(Hindawi Limited, 2023-01-12)Mathematical models have been widely used to explain the system originating from human-nature interaction, investigate the impacts of various components, and forecast system behaviour. This paper provides a profound reference ... -
Modelling the spread and control of prosopis juliflora plants
