Modeling malaria sensitive and resistant strains with superinfection
(Communications in Mathematical Biology and Neuroscience, 2019-03-08)
In this paper, a deterministic model to examine the dynamics of malaria with sensitive and resistant strains in the presence of superinfection is formulated and presented. The basic reproduction is computed using next-generation ...
Modeling Transmission Dynamics of Northern Corn Leaf Blight Disease with Seasonal Weather Variations
(Journal of Mathematics and Informatics, 2019-01-31)
Northern Corn Leaf Blight (NCLB) disease is a fungal foliar disease caused by
Exserohilum turcicum. Moderate temperature and high relative humidity are climatical
conditions which favor the development of NCLB disease. ...
Mathematical Model for the Transmission Dynamics of Bovine Tuberculosis in Human and Livestock with Control Strategies
(International Journal of Advances in Scientific Research and Engineering (ijasre), 2019-10)
A deterministic mathematical model for bovine tuberculosis (bovine TB) in humans and livestock is formulated and
used to assess the effectiveness of dairy products inspection, human treatment and quarantine of infected ...
Backward Bifurcation and Optimal Control Analysis of a Trypanosoma brucei rhodesiense Model
(MDPI, 2019-10-14)
In this paper, a mathematical model for the transmission dynamics of Trypanosoma brucei rhodesiense that incorporates three species—namely, human, animal and vector—is formulated and analyzed. Two controls representing ...
Application of Optimal Control Theory to Newcastle Disease Dynamics in Village Chicken by Considering Wild Birds as Reservoir of Disease Virus
(Hindawi, 2019-03-03)
In this study, an optimal control theory was applied to a nonautonomous model for Newcastle disease transmission in the village chicken population. A notable feature of this model is the inclusion of environment contamination ...
An Empirical Approach to Phishing Countermeasures Through Smart Glasses and Validation Agents
(IEEE, 2019-09-10)
Phishing attacks have been persistent for more than two decades despite mitigation efforts from academia and industry. We believe that users fall victim to attacks not only because of lack of knowledge and awareness, but ...
Performance Evaluation of Highly Admixed Tanzanian Smallholder Dairy Cattle Using SNP Derived Kinship Matrix
(Original Research, 2019-04-26)
The main purpose of this study was to understand the type of dairy cattle that can
be optimally used by smallholder farmers in various production environments such
that they will maximize their yields without increasing ...
Developing a Stochastic Model for Studying and Simulating Sediment Transport in Ports and Harbors
(International Journal of Advances in Scientific Research and Engineering (ijasre), 2019-09)
A particle model to describe and predict sediment transport in shallow water is developed with the use of random
walk models. The model is developed by showing consistency between the Fokker-Plank equation and the ...
Modelling the Transmission Dynamics of Banana Xanthomonas Wilt Disease with Contaminated Soil
(Journal of Mathematics and Informatics, 2019-10-31)
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 ...
Towards enhancing Tour Guide professionalism in Tanzania through a Tour Guide Portal
(African Journal of Hospitality, Tourism and Leisure, 2019)
Tourism is an important sector for the development of the economy of the country. It contributes directly and indirectly to Gross Domestic Product, employment generation and source of foreign currency. Tour ...
