• Comparison of the diagnostic potential of three anti-citrullinated protein antibodies as adjuncts to rheumatoid factor and CCP in a cohort of South African rheumatoid arthritis patients 

  Meyer, P.W.A. (Pieter Willem Adriaan); Ally, Mahmood Moosa Tar Mahomed; Hodkinson, Bridget; Anderson, Ronald; Tikly, Mohammed (Springer, 2018-06)

  PURPOSE : A retrospective comparison of the prevalence and diagnostic value of anti-Sa, anti-CEP-1, and anti-MCV autoantibodies relative to those of the established autoantibodies, composite RF and anti-CCP-IgG used routinely ...
• First-principles studies of SnS2, MoS2 and WS2 stacked van der Waals hetero-multilayers 

  Mabiala-Poaty, H.B.; Douma, D.H.; Malonda-Boungou, B.R.; Mapasha, Refilwe Edwin; M'Passi-Mabiala, B. (Elsevier, 2018-09)

  We present the energetics, structural and electronic properties of SnS2 monolayer stacked with MoS2 and WS2 monolayers making the van der Waals hetero-layers using the first-principles methods. The exchange-correlation ...
• A simplicial homology algorithm for Lipschitz optimisation 

  Endres, Stefan (University of Pretoria, 2018)

  The simplicial homology global optimisation (SHGO) algorithm is a general purpose global optimisation algorithm based on applications of simplicial integral homology and combinatorial topology. SHGO approximates the ...
• Structural and electronic properties of SnS2 stacked nanosheets : an ab-initio study 

  Mabiala-Poaty, H.B.; Douma, D.H.; M'Passi-Mabiala, B.; Mapasha, Refilwe Edwin (Elsevier, 2018-09)

  We present an ab-initio study of the structural and electronic properties of SnS2 stacked nanosheets using the standard LDA and GGA functionals as well as the newly developed variants of the non-local van der Waals (vdW) ...
• Prevalence of Botrytis cinerea at different phenological stages of table grapes grown in the northern region of South Africa 

  Carmichael, Patricia C.; Siyoum, Nazareth A.; Jongman, Mosimanegape; Korsten, Lise (Elsevier, 2018-09)

  Botrytis cinerea, is one of the major causal agents of postharvest decay in table grapes, contributing to 20% losses world-wide. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of B. cinerea at different phenological ...
