Preformulation solid-state supramolecular beneficiation of selected active pharmaceutical ingredients and a novel drug candidate by Noonan, Terence James

“…The compounds selected were: Clevudine, an established drug that is currently in use for the treatment of chronic hepatitis B infections, 6-(3- (Methylsulfonyl)phenyl)-3-(4-(methylsulfonyl)phenyl)-imidazo[1,2-b]pyridazine (MMV652103), a novel antimalarial drug candidate that displayed good in vitro potency against multidrug resistant and sensitive plasmodial strains and ()-α-lipoamide, a bioactive antioxidant that is currently in use for the clinical treatment of diabetic neuropathy and has other potential uses e.g. as an antiretroviral agent. The methods utilised in pursuit of novel solid-state forms of the compounds included a combination of crystal engineering and experimental screening for polymorphs, solvates/hydrates, cyclodextrin (CD) inclusion complexes, pharmaceutical salts and co-crystals. …”

Subsynchronous resonance in series compensated networks with high penetration of renewable energy sources by Chikohora, Tinashe Edward

“…The dissertation dissects the SSR problem with emphasis on its management in a modern power system environment receiving rising RES and flexible alternating current transmission systems (FACTS) connections through series compensated lines. The simulations performed in this study utilised the IEEE first benchmark model (FBM) within Digital Simulation and Electrical Network – PowerFactory (DIgSILENT) software. …”

The economic burden, patients' well-being, and social determinants related to diabetes in South Africa by Hellebo, Assegid

“…Furthermore, analysis utilising cross-sectional data of 539 participants older than 18 years receiving care from rural and urban clinics in the Western Cape, South Africa, revealed that healthcare utilisation was inversely related to diabetes self-care scores, indicating that patients with less frequent healthcare visits tended to have higher self-care scores. …”

Condition Monitoring of VSD-fed Induction Motors by Ralikalakala, Lebohang

“…A similar trend is observed in speed and torque pulsations of the motor under the respective faults. Similarly, the method of diagnostic variables has proven valid for both simulation and experimental results and is able to detect and localise inverter open switch fault for single and double switch fault. …”
