Establishing associations for the evaluation of mobility screen (EMS) in an adult South African population by Brink, Marthinus Lotz

“…Background: Muscle, joint and bone injuries affect mobility and stability, which in turn limits physical activity. Screening tests such as the Functional Movement Screen (FMS) are used to assess an individual’s mobility and stability to determine whether any movement dysfunctions exist. …”

Design and development of a speculum-free digital cervical cancer screening device by Hefer, Lehan

“…Materials and Methods The design and development of the cervical cancer screening device, the CerviScreen, used rapid prototyping and testing principles. Comprising five subsystems—housing, visualisation, liquid application, dilation, and decontamination—the subsystems were independently designed and subsequently integrated. …”

An investigation into the flotation response of sperrylite (PtAs2) by comparative evaluation of crystal structure and bonding atoms by Pikinini, Sebia

“…The minerals rest potentials at pH 9.5 followed the order FeS2 (282) > PtS (254) > PtAs2 (233) > FeAsS (177) mV, while there was a great increase for all the minerals except sperrylite at pH 3.5, with the order PtS (523) > FeS2 (407) > FeAsS (333) > PtAs2 (243) mV. …”

Investigating the potential of using hydrocyclone-fine screen hybrid systems to improve the performance of classification circuits by Muketekelwa, Saliya L

“…In an effort to mitigate the classification challenges of both the hydrocyclone and fine screen, this study investigated the potential of combining the high throughput performance of the hydrocyclone operation and the high precision classification characteristics of fine screening to result in a hybrid classification circuit Plant scale tests were conducted using five different classification circuit configurations at an operational Base Metal Concentrator treating a polymetallic ore. …”

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. …”

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. …”
