Investigating prediction modelling of academic performance for students in rural schools in Kenya by Mgala, Mvurya

“…However, limitations of infrastructure in rural areas of developing countries, such as lack of or unstable electricity and Internet, impede the use of PCs. This study proposed that an academic performance prediction model could include a mobile phone interface specifically designed based on users' needs. …”

Solid state diffusion in Pd₂Si by Egan, John Mathew

“…The Pd₂Si system has been studied to try and establish the mechanism(s) of diffusion by which the growth of Pd₂Si proceeds under thermal annealing. Using a deposited Ti marker, the dominant moving species during Pd₂Si formation in the temperature range 250-400°C has been determined to be silicon. …”

Model systems for the investigation of metal-support interactions in cobalt based Fischer-Tropsch by Dyasi, Nontsikelelo

“…In order to investigate metal support interactions independent of other support effects, the inverse method was used in the synthesis of model catalysts [3]. The inverse method mimics the interface bond between the support and the active metal, resulting in CoO-Si bond formation. …”
