Linearization of Newton's second law
Andronikos Paliathanasis
The geometric linearization of nonlinear differential equation is a robust method for the construction of analytic solutions. The method is related to the existence of Lie symmetri…
Towards an Integrated Knowledge Management and Information and Communication Technology Framework for Improving Disaster Response in a Developing Country Context
Teurai Matekenya, Ephias Ruhode
This paper is part of an ongoing project that seeks to address a gap in disaster information coordination and collaboration in Zimbabwe. There is lack of coordinated information an…
Factors Enhancing E-Government Service Gaps in a Developing Country Context
Gilbert Mahlangu, Ephias Ruhode
Globally, the discourse of e-government has gathered momentum in public service delivery. No country has been left untouched in the implementation of e-government. Several governme…
EHealth Technologies Integration with Healthcare Work Activities in Public Hospitals: A Critical Realist Perspective
Mourine Achieng, Ephias Ruhode
Integration of eHealth technologies with healthcare work activities has seen great advancement in many healthcare systems in developing countries. However, these efforts have been…
Three-dimensional imaging of waves and floe sizes in the marginal ice zone during an explosive cyclone
Alberto Alberello, Luke Bennetts, Miguel Onorato +11
The marginal ice zone is the dynamic interface between the open ocean and consolidated inner pack ice. Surface gravity waves regulate marginal ice zone extent and properties, and,…
A Framework for Pre-processing of Social Media Feeds based on Integrated Local Knowledge Base
Taiwo Kolajo, Olawande Daramola, Ayodele Adebiyi +1
Most of the previous studies on the semantic analysis of social media feeds have not considered the issue of ambiguity that is associated with slangs, abbreviations, and acronyms t…
Inflation of 430-parsec bipolar radio bubbles in the Galactic Centre by an energetic event
I. Heywood, F. Camilo, W. D. Cotton +96
The Galactic Centre contains a supermassive black hole with a mass of 4 million suns within an environment that differs markedly from that of the Galactic disk. While the black hol…
Singularity-free approximate analytical solution of capillary rise dynamics
Bohua Sun
Capillary rise is one of the most well-known capillarity; however, no single and complete analytic solution has ever been obtained yet. This paper used the singularity-free equatio…
Note on Divergence of the Chapman-Enskog Expansion for Solving Boltzmann Equation
Nanxian Chen, Bohua Sun
Within about a year (1916-1917) Chapman and Enskog independently proposed an important expansion for solving the Boltzmann equation. However, the expansion is divergent or indeterm…
Kepler's third law of n-body periodic orbits in a Newtonian gravitation field
Bohua Sun
This study considers the periodic orbital period of an n-body system from the perspective of dimension analysis. According to characteristics of the n-body system with point masses…
The Spatial Scaling Laws of Compressible Turbulence
Bohua Sun
The spatial scaling laws of velocity kinetic energy spectrum for compressible turbulence flow and its density-weighted counterpart have been formulated in terms of wavenumber, diss…
Bounce Conditions in f(R) Cosmologies
Sante Carloni, Peter K. S. Dunsby, Deon Solomons
We investigate the conditions for a bounce to occur in Friedmann-Robertson-Walker cosmologies for the class of fourth order gravity theories. The general bounce criterion is determ…
Bounce behaviour in Kantowski-Sachs and Bianchi Cosmologies
Deon Solomons, Peter Dunsby, George Ellis
Many cosmological scenarios envisage either a bounce of the universe at early times, or collapse of matter locally to form a black hole which re-expands into a new expanding univer…
Incipient Motion Criteria for a Rigid Sediment Grain on a Rigid Surface
S. J. Childs
Criteria for the incipient motion of a rigid body initially resting on a rigid surface are formulated from first principles in this work. A modified Coulomb friction model and an a…
