APPLICATION OF PROVINCIAL DATA IN MATHEMATICAL MODELLING TO INFORM SUB-NATIONAL TUBERCULOSIS PROGRAM DECISION-MAKING IN SOUTH AFRICA.

Application of provincial data in mathematical modelling to inform sub-national tuberculosis program decision-making in South Africa.

South Africa has the highest tuberculosis (TB) disease incidence rate in the world, and TB is the leading infectious cause of death.Decisions on, and funding for, TB prevention and care policies are decentralised to the provincial ThreeZero governments and therefore, tools to inform policy need to operate at this level.We describe the use of a math

Influence of processing route on microstructure and wear resistance of fly ash reinforced AZ31 magnesium matrix composites

Utilizing fly ash ThreeZero (FA) as reinforcement for magnesium matrix composites (MMCs) brings down the production cost and the land pollution.Magnesium alloy AZ31 was reinforced with FA particles (10 vol.%) successfully by two different processing methods namely conventional stir casting and friction stir processing (FSP).The microstructural feat
