BACKGROUND : Using visual, biological, and electronic health records data as the sole
input source, pretrained convolutional neural networks and conventional machine
learning methods have been heavily employed for the ...
This paper presents the simulations of the cooling system of a battery pack (BTPC) consisting
of lithium-ion (LIN) plate batteries. The BTPC includes six battery cells (BTCL) in two rows with
three BTCLs, which are placed ...
The Engineering Education Research Network in Africa (EERN-Africa) was created to enable connections
between practitioners and researchers with a shared interest in African engineering education
contexts. Recognising the ...
In this study, the photocatalytic activity of nanomaterials Ag/AgX (X = Cl, Br, I) is reported. Highly efficient silver halide (Ag/AgX where X = Cl, Br, I) photocatalysts were synthesized through a hydrothermal method. The ...
The use of alternative energy sources, particularly solar energy, in buildings is rising and spreading around the globe. In this paper, a solar wall is analyzed using a numerical method. On the wall, a number of obstacles ...
A study aimed towards assessing the variation in shaft capacity of piled foundations in swelling clays is presented. At the clay's in-situ water content, the results of pull-out tests on short-length piles revealed no ...
Considering solar gain through the window (SGW), this study investigated the effects of installing shading on cooling load. Approving energy analysis for the base building (without shading), the cooling, heating, and annual ...
Over the years, informative frequency band (IFB) identification techniques emerged with the aim of guaranteeing optimal demodulation-band for the diagnostics of rotating machinery. A measured vibration signal from complex ...
PURPOSE : Buoyed by the increasing demand for improved productivity and environmentally conscious manufacturing, research in the area of lean production and green manufacturing has experienced significant growth since Dües ...
PURPOSE : This research aims to examine the complementary impact of Lean Manufacturing (LM) and Green Manufacturing (GM) on operational and environmental performance.
DESIGN/METHODOLOGY/APPROACH : A survey was conducted ...
As a result of the new telecommunication ecosystem landscape, wireless communication
has become an interdisciplinary field whose future is shaped by several interacting dimensions. These
interacting dimensions, which ...

The research presented in this thesis was motivated by two factors. Firstly, little route choice research
has been undertaken in South Africa, especially in urban areas. This has resulted in significant gaps in
our ...
