Dynamic performance of pre-cast prestressed beams – cast in-situ slab composite bridges by Leo, Emmanuel

“…The modal tests were successfully executed and from the modal analysis results it was observed that a beam with large number of shear connectors produce high frequencies and high amplitudes of frequency response functions (FRFs) compared to the one with less number of shear connectors. …”

Which pre-operative findings translate to a positive intra-operative cholangiogram? by Elmusbahi, Mohamed Ali M

“…Background: The most common investigations used in the pre-operative diagnosis of choledocholithiasis are ultrasound and liver function tests (LFTs). These modalities have a low sensitivity for detecting common bile duct stones amongst the intermediate-risk groups. …”

Exploring the phylodynamics, genetic reassortment and RNA secondary structure formation patterns of orthomyxoviruses by comparative sequence analysis by Nindo, Fredrick Nzabanyi

“…In chapter four of this thesis, I explored the formation of RNA secondary structures within the genomes of orthomyxoviruses belonging to five genera: Influenza A, B and C, Infectious Salmon Anaemia Virus and Thogotovirus using in silico RNA folding predictions and additional molecular evolution and phylogenetic tests to show that structured regions may be biologically functional. …”

Regional myocardial perfusion : experimental and clinical studies in patients with coronary artery disease by Selwyn, Andrew Peter

“…Regional perfusion may increase, remain stable or decrease in the affected segment following the onset of a stress test such as atrial pacing. This probably represents the amount of reserve function and adaptation left in the diseased coronary circulation and may be a useful physiological indicator of the severity of coronary disease and of patients at high risk. …”

Developing quantitative approaches to determine microbial colonisation and activity in mineral bioleaching and characterisation of acid rock drainage by Makaula, Didi Xhanti

“…The flowthrough configuration was run alongside the refined UCT-developed batch biokinetic test using suspended mineral. In this study, two pyritic waste rock samples, liberated by milling, were characterised using three biokinetic test approaches: the slurry batch test (BT), the batch test using mineral-coated beads (BT-CB) and flow-through column test with mineral-coated beads (FT-CB). …”
