Theoretical Foundations of Africa’s Economic Transformation and Growth
(Scientific Research, 2017-08)This paper provides the theoretical underpinnings of growth models to explain structural economic transformation in Africa. The paper suggests that endogenous growth model is the key for understanding long-run growth ... -
Theoretical Insight into the Structure, Energetic Property and Thermal Stability of C6N6H12 Cages
(2016-11)Recent theoretical studies have identified carbon-nitrogen cages are potentially stable high energy density materials. Two such C6N6H12 cages were proposed and investigated using the density functional theory comparison ... -
Theoretical Model of Special Product Design for the Elderly
(Scientific Research Publishing, 2016-02)As ageing in current society is gradually increasing, it is urgent to study product design for the elderly, exploring the theoretical system of elderly product design is of great significance. In order to guide product ... -
Theoretical Treatment of Ion Stopping in Complex Systems
(2014-08)The sort of materials treated by theoretical methods in physics has changed radically in recent years, from small molecules and biomolecules, as well as perfect solids and gasses at zero temperature, to much more complex ... -
Therapeutic Process of Gynecological Pelvic Abscess— Retrospective Review of 20 Cases
(Scientific Research, 2013-03)Background: Conservative therapies of pelvic abscess are not highly effective and surgical treatment is usually required. This study reviewed cases of pelvic abscess treated at our hospital over a 3-year period to evaluate ... -
Thermodynamic and Kinetic Studies of Powerful Eco Friendly Green Inhibitors; Costus afer, Uvaria chamae and Xylopia aethiopia for the Control of Mild Steel Corrosion in HCl Solution.
(2018-01)The inhibitive action of the methanol extracts of three powerful eco-friendly green Inhibitors; Costus afer (COA), Uvaria chamae (UVC), and Xylopia aethiopica (XYA) leaves on the corrosion of mild steel in 2.5 M HCl solutions ... -
Thermodynamics of CO2 Adsorption on Polyethyleneimine Mesoporous Silica and Activated Carbon
(2017-03)A thermodynamic study of the enthalpies of adsorption of CO2 was conducted on polyethyleneimine 10k/ mesoporous silica (PEI-10k/MPS) and activated carbon (AC). These materials were chosen because of their high CO2 sorption ... -
Thinning of Emulsion Water-in-Oil Films Stabilized with Modified Aluminum Hydroxide under Influence of Applied Pressure Drop
(Scientific Research, 2014-03)The results of studies of thinning free water-in-oil emulsion films stabilized by solid particles by the Applied Pressure Drop Technique (APDT) are reported. The quasi-equilibrium film thickness achieved by slow increasing ... -
Three-Center Configuration with Four,Three, and Two Electrons for Carbon,Boron, Hydrogen, and Halogen Exchange. A Model and Theoretical Study with Experimental Evidence
(Scientific Research, 2014-05)The introduction of specific sites in organic frames for accommodation of various modes of bonding has been focused on reaction types which are described by using different theoretical models with or without a definite ... -
Throughput Maximizing Frequency and Power Scheduling for Wireless Ad-Hoc Networks in the Low-SINR Regime
(Scientific Research Publishing, 2012-07)We study the problem of frequency and power allocation and scheduling at a time-slotted cognitive ad-hoc wireless network, where cognitive nodes share a number of frequency bands and frequency reuse is allowed. In such a ... -
Time-Logic
(Scientific Research, 2017-05)Time-logic is ever at work as story-logic in open coherence. This theme and its enormous significance, both sadly, totally, and usually neglected, are elucidated in this essay. This essay has five headings: time as not ... -
TLR5 involvement in attenuated IL-8 production in nuclear decorin silenced oral mucosal dysplastic keratinocytes and squamous cell carcinoma
(Scientific Research Publishing, 2013-10)Head and neck cancer is one of the most prevalent cancers in the world. Roughly half of these malignancies originate from oral mucosa and constitute Oral squamous cell carcinomas. Despite many advances in diagnostic and ... -
To label or not to label: balancing the risks, benefits and costs of mandatory labelling of GM food in Africa
(BioMed Central, 2014)There seems to be growing controversy among interest groups worldwide about whether genetically modified (GM) foods need to be labelled. There are also growing concerns, particularly among civil society groups, about ... -
Tourism and Employment Spillovers in a Small Island Developing State: A Dynamic Investigation
(Scientific Research, 2016-04)Using a dynamic vector error correction model, and catering for dynamism and endogeneity, the present study attempts to address the question on whether tourism development enhances employment in Mauritius using time ... -
Towards a common agricultural policy in Africa?
(2018)The paper analyses the structure and level of international cooperation among African states in the area of agriculture and rural development. It focuses on the African Union (AU) and its eight Regional Economic ... -
Towards the Development of Best Data Security for Big Data
(Communication Network, 2017-11)Big data is becoming a well-known buzzword and in active use in many areas. Because of the velocity, variety, and volume of big data, security and privacy issues are magnified, which results in the traditional protection ... -
