Modeling and optimization of clean water distribution networks
(NM-AIST, 2021-10)
In this study, a model has been developed to find the minimum cost in distributing clean
water. Linear Programming (LP) technique was used to formulate the model for Dodoma
city. The developed model consists of both ...
Big data analytics framework for childhood infectious disease surveillance system using modified mapreduce algorithm: a case study of Tanzania
(NM-AIST, 2021-11)
Tanzania has been affected with a potential emerging and re-emerging of infectious diseases such
as diarrhea, acute respiratory infections, pneumonia, hepatitis, and measles. There is an
increasing trend for the ...
Developing a stochastic model for studying and simulating sediment transport in ports and harbors
(NM-AIST, 2020-03)
A particle model for describing and predicting sediment transport in shallow water is developed
with the use of random walk models by showing consistency between the Fokker-Plank equation
and the Advection diffusion ...
Modeling the effect of storm-water flow on sewer system leakage
(NM-AIST, 2020-03)
The storm-water overflow on manhole is numerically solved in this study. To produce a real
representation of storm overflow, the Navier-Stokes equations were used. Turbulence flow was
modelled using the standard k-epsilon ...
Option pricing using jump diffusion model: a case of stock markets of selected east African countries
(NM-AIST, 2020-03)
The stock price is characterized by several features which can only be captured by the best
model. To investigate this the Merton's jump-diffusion model was developed and applied to
the selected stocks of three East ...
A mathematical model to inform on desirable dog-rabies control methods in an urban setting: a case study of Arusha-Tanzania
(NM-AIST, 2020-03)
Rabies is a zoonotic, viral disease that causes an acute brain inflammation in mammals. It is
transmitted through the saliva of infected animals via bites, scratches or contact with infectious
tissue. In this study, we ...
Modelling and optimisation of water loss management strategies in a water distribution system: a case of Moshi Urban Water Supply and Sanitation Authority (MUWSA)
(NM-AIST, 2020-03)
Water loss in water distribution systems (WDS) is a serious problem in developing countries.
A lot of water is lost on its way from the sources before reaching the consumers due to leakage,
illegal use, and theft of ...
Modelling the transmission dynamics of banana xanthomonas wilt disease with control measures
(NM-AIST, 2020-03)
Banana Xanthomonas Wilt disease (BXW) is a bacterial disease which highly threaten banana
production in East and Central Africa. It is caused by a bacteria known as Xanthomonas
campestris pv. musacearum (Xcm). Mathematical ...
Mathematical modeling on the effects of drug abuse to the societies
(NM-AIST, 2022-07)
Drug abuse remains to be the global burden causing a large number of death and disability, it
is now termed as a significant threat to public health for both developed and developing coun tries. This work presents a ...
Mathematical modeling of covid-19 transmission dynamics between healthcare workers and community
(NM-AIST, 2022-06)
COVID-19 pandemic has posed an unprecedented threat to global public health. Health profes sionals caring for COVID-19 patients face insomnia, mental stress, physical exhaustion, stigma,
the pain of losing patients and ...
