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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
Mathematical modeling for helminths and mycobacterium tuberculosis co-infection
(NM-AIST, 2021-10)
Tuberculosis continues to be a life-threatening disease in Sub-Saharan African countries despite the
available vaccine whereas soil-transmitted helminth is among the neglected tropical disease that
causes threats to ...
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 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 ...
Effects of navier slip and skin friction on nanofluid flow in a porous pipe
(NM-AIST, 2022-07)
Recent advances in cooling, filtering, heat transfer, and other processes have all focused
attention on fluid flow through porous media. During the flow partial slip becomes more
important at wall surfaces in improvement ...
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 ...
