Heat Mass Transfer With Chemical Reaction Of An Exponentially Stretching Stenosed Artery

Abstract The laminar boundary layer flow in an exponentially stretching stenosed artery immersed in viscous and incompressible blood is investigated along with the effect of a chemical reaction. Many researchers have used mathematical modelling to predict blood flow through stenosed arteries. Pressure, shear stress and velocity are the parameters that have been analysed in the past. Not a lot of work has been done to highlight the effect of heat transfer on an exponentially stretching stenose...

Statistical Analysis Of Letter Frequency In Swahili Language

ABSTRACT The sudy of a language is very important for the cryptanalysis of substitution and/ or permutation ciphers. In that type of ciphers one letter is substituted by another one, or its order is changed with the order of another letter also from the text. In either case the ―personality‖of the alphabets remains intact, hidden inside a different vest, but intact anyway. If it is true that the morden block ciphers hide those characteristics, given the fact that they operate at bit leve...

Overview Solutions Of Nonlinear Ordinary Differential Equations And Its Applications

ABSTRACT This study is about Overview solutions of nonlinear differential equations and its applications. It consists of four chapters where by the first chapter is devoted on the general overview solutions of differential equations. The second chapter deals with numerical solutions of differential equations.

ABSTRACT This dissertation contains materials on numerical solutions based on elliptic differential equations only appropriate for senior level undergraduate or beginning level graduate students. The reader based on this dissertation should have had introductory courses in Calculus, linear algebra and general numerical analysis. A formal course in ordinary or partial differential equations would be useful. In our study, it should be understood that, there are many procedures that come under ...

Language Supportive Teaching and Textbooks (LSTT) for Bilingual Classrooms Mathematics Teaching and Learning in Tanzania

Abstract The aim of this study was to assess the impact on teaching and learning using the LSTT (Language Supportive Teaching and Textbooks) project’s bilingual Mathematics textbook chapters among Form One students in selected rural community secondary schools in Tanzania. LSTT project was introduced in Tanzania in 2013 to enhance language supportive teaching among the disadvantaged rural groups identified as less competent in foreign languages. The study employed both quantitative and qua...

Modelling Of Maternal Health Care Services Using Multinomial Logistic Regression

ABSTRACT Several methods which have been adopted to analyze multi-category data yields unsatisfactory results because of strict assumptions regarding normality, linearity, and homoscedasticity. As a result, Multinomial logistic regression is considered as an alternative because it does not assume normality, linearity, or homoscedasticity (Hosmer & Lemeshow, (2000)). The study attempted to use Maximum likelihood estimation and predicted probability to model Maternal Health Care Services data b...

Survey Of Square Root Algorithms Over Finite Fields

ABSTRACT Computing square roots over finite fields is a problem of interest, especially to understanding which algorithm is efficient, and how it works well. There are several known algorithms that computes square roots over finite fields, of all of them the shank’s algorithm is known to be the most efficient. The objective of this dissertation is to survey the square root computing algorithms over finite fields, particularly we consider the the Shank’s algorithm for computing square roo...

Numerical Approximations To Solutions Of Inverse Problems For Parabolic Differential Equations

ABSTRACT Present work is concerned with solved a coefficient inverse problem of one-dimensional parabolic equation by a higher-order compact finite difference method and we used this a fourth order efficient numerical method to calculate the function u(x, t) and the unknown coefficient a(t) in a parabolic partial differential equation. Also discussed the accuracy and efficiency of the fourth order finite difference formula compare with other finite difference methods such as FTCS explicit sc...

Contributions To The Theory Of Parastrophs And Derivatives Of Loops

ABSTRACT This Thesis investigates the nature of the parastrophs and derivatives of loops both of Bol-Moufang (Extra, Moufang, Central loops) and non Bol-Moufang (Conjugacy Closed loops) type in general. Extra loops is the case study. By using Fenyves (1968, 1969) definition of Extra loops and the results of Goodaire and Robinson (1982, 1990), this work shows that the parastrophs and derivatives of an Extra loop exist. Taking into consideration Ken Kunen (1996) results, it has been establishe...

Inverse Problems For Elliptic Partial Differential Equations

ABSTRACT The study of an inverse problem for elliptic partial differential equations has been put in place in order to provide a broad understanding to the existence of inverse problems for elliptic partial differential equations particularly Poisson’s equation. The main obective is to describe different approaches to inverse problems for elliptic partial differential equations and in particular, the factorization method. Another aim of this work is to study a certain inverse problem for a...

A Survey Of Analytic Hierarchy Process (Ahp)

ABSTRACT The purpose of this dissertation is to survey Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) as the tool used in decision making. The decision making process involves evaluating alternatives or criterion by selecting the best option. The AHP is the decision making technique which involves both subjective human judgments and objective evaluation merely by Eigen vector and then examines the consistency of the evaluation by Eigen Value. In this dissertation we have shown in details methods of AHP and...
