Meshless hydrodynamic simulations of young supernova remnants by Mogawana, Orapeleng

“…Here we studied the interaction of the supernova ejecta with different circumstellar environments to investigate the hydrodynamic evolution of young supernova remnants in the SedovTaylor phase. We used the massively parallel, multi-physics magneto-hydrodynamics (MHD) and gravity code, GIZMO, for our simulations. …”

Estimation of Shadow-Rate Term Structure Models Near the Zero-Lower Bound by Esmail, Shabbirhussein

“…Prieb- ˇ sch’s first-cumulant method is more accurate than Krippner’s method for a 1-factor Vasicek model, while Priebsch’s second-cumulant method is deemed impractical ˇ because of the computational time it takes. In a multi-factor AFNS model, only Krippner’s framework is feasible. …”

The feasibility of a commercial-scale recirculating aquaculture system integrating sea urchins (Tripneustes gratilla) and seaweed (Ulva) by De Vos, Sebastiaan

“…Therefore, to avoid this future bottleneck, this study also developed an accessible, accurate and efficient protocol for the reliable and precise measurement of large quantities of sea urchins using computer vision. For a larger-scale context, this open-source software could easily be incorporated into various tools, such as a grading machine, to completely automate farm processes. …”

Investigate the nutritional status, including body composition, of oncology patients attending an outpatient clinic at Groote Schuur hospital: a cross-sectional study by Blacker, Megan

“…As cancer cachexia is recognized as a multifactorial and multi-organ syndrome, all diagnostic components may need to be present, therefore simplistic commonly used clinical and practical approaches may not be adequate to detect cancer cachexia early in the cancer patient's journey.…”

The impact of IFRS 17 transition mechanisms legislated by tax authorities on the GloBE effective tax rate of South Africa headquartered insurers by Modise, Keletso

“…The research conducted seeks to determine the extent to which the transition mechanism legislated by tax authorities in response to and in preparation for the transition to IFRS 17 may impact the effective tax rate computed under the GloBE Rules. In addressing the research problem a two-pronged approach was taken, the first being a comparative analysis between the transition mechanisms opted for by tax authorities in South Africa and the United Kingdom, and the second being a case study using Discovery Limited, a South Africa headquartered MNE Group as the subject to illustrate the potential impact of the former, on the effective tax rate in the jurisdictions it operates in. …”

Auto-bandwidth control in dynamically reconfigured hybrid-SDN MPLS networks by Brandt, Angus Daniel

“…The centralised view of the network provides the network state information needed to drive the mathematical modelling of the network. The path computation element further enables control of the label switched path's bandwidths, which is adjusted based on current demand and optimisation method used. …”
