A dissertation on the relationship between training and development and industrial relations in the Kalgold mining company
(2004)The primary object of this dissertation is to investigate the training problem in the Kgalagadi gold (Kalgold} mining company, located some 40 km West of Mafikeng. The company is reported not to have trained most of its ... -
Dissipative particle dynamics investigation of the transport of salicylic acid through a simulated in vitro skin permeation model
(MDPI, 2018)Permeation models are often used to determine diffusion properties of a drug through a membrane as it is released from a delivery system. In order to circumvent problematic in vivo studies, diffusion studies can be ... -
Dissipelskap as 'n bedieningsmodel vir gemeentebou aan die dooplidmate (13 tot 18 jaar) in die Gereformeerde Kerke in Suid–Afrika
(North-West University, 2010)The Church lives in times of change. In times of change Christ builds and equips his Church, through the Holy Spirit, to proclaim the gospel to the world and to make disciples. As part of the congregation, it is important ... -
Dissipline in openbare laerskole : graad 7–persepsies van leerders en opvoeders
(North-West University, 2012)The objective of this research was to investigate the perceptions of Grade 7 learners and educators concerning discipline at public primary schools in District D16. In Chapter Two of this dissertation the researcher focussed ... -
Dissiplinêre verhore : 'n reg op regsverteenwoordiging vir werknemers
(North-West University, 2005)An employee is usually entitled to representation in a disciplinary hearing. The question arises whether this representation includes legal representation or whether it is limited to representation by union representatives ... -
Dissociation between learning and memory impairment and other sickness behaviours during simulated Mycoplasma infection in rats
(Elsevier, 2011)To investigate potential consequences for learning and memory, we have simulated the effects of Mycoplasma infection, in rats, by administering fibroblast-stimulating lipopepide-1 (FSL-1), a pyrogenic moiety of Mycoplasma ... -
The dissolution analysis of sulfadoxine/pyrimethamine combination tablets
(North-West University, 2007)Disease is as old as life itself and the treatment thereof ancient too. A disease that still claims over a million lives annually and is considered a health problem in approximately 90 countries is malaria, even though it ... -
Dissolution kinetics of silver nanoparticles : behaviour in simulated biological fluids and synthetic environmental media
(Elsevier, 2022)Silver nanoparticles offer a wide range of benefits including their application in several fields such as medical, food, health care, consumer, and industrial purposes. However, unlocking this potential requires a ... -
Dissolution kinetics of sorbents and effect of additives in wet flue gas desulfurization
(De Gruyter, 2014)Flue gas desulfurization (FGD) technology has been adopted by a number of power stations for the removal of sulfur dioxide (SO2) from flue gas. The wet FGD system is the most commonly used process because of high SO2 removal ... -
Dissolution kinetics of South African coal fly ash and the development of a semi-empirical model to predict dissolution
(Association of the Chemical Engineers of Serbia AChE, 2015)Wet flue gas desulphurization (FGD) is a crucial technology which can be used to abate the emission of sulphur dioxide in coal power plants. The dissolution of coal fly ash in adipic acid is investigated by varying acid ... -
Dissolution of titanium dioxide nanoparticles in synthetic biological and environmental media to predict their biodurability and persistence
(Elsevier BV, 2022)Investigating the biodurability and persistence of titanium dioxide nanoparticles (TiO2 NPs) is of paramount importance because these parameters influence the particles' impact on human health and the environment. Contrary ... -
Distance education as a 'we–ness': a case for uBuntu as a theoretical framework
(Unisa Press, 2012)‘Education-for-me’ could, epistemologically considered, probably be classified as a typically Western concept where the individual within distance education focuses on individualised ‘education-for-me’, thus making the ... -
Distance education technologies : a classification and evaluation
(2001)We are at a point in the history of higher education in South Africa when radical changes are occurring in instructional delivery system models. Of increasing significance is a mixed mode of traditional and distance ... -
Distance moduli of open cluster NGC 6819 from Red Giant Clump stars
(Elsevier, 2016)In this paper we study Kepler open cluster NGC 6819 using Kepler data of Red Giant Clump (RGC) single member (SM) stars. The Kepler data spans a period of 4 years starting in 2009. In particular, we derive distance moduli ... -
Distinct inflammatory mediator patterns in young black and white adults: the African-predict study
(Elsevier, 2020)Objective Inflammatory mediators have been implicated in the early stages of cardiovascular disease development, including hypertension. Since global reports reflect a higher hypertension prevalence in black than white ... -
Distinct intrinsic functional brain network abnormalities in methamphetamine‐dependent patients with and without a history of psychosis
(Wiley, 2018)Chronic methamphetamine use is associated with executive functioning deficits that suggest dysfunctional cognitive control networks (CCNs) in the brain. Likewise, abnormal connectivity between intrinsic CCNs and default ... -
Distinctive cultural attitudes of Xhosa people towards adoption
(North-West University (South-Africa), 2023)The main objective of the study was to outline the distinctive cultural attitudes of Xhosa people towards adoption, so that pertinent organizations might approach adoption in a way that was sensitive to differences in ... -
Distinguishing between intention and negligence in South African criminal law
(North-West University (South Africa), Mafikeng Campus, 2016)This study presents an account of mens rea as a culpability requirement. Both intention and negligence are forms of mens rea recognised in terms of the South African criminal law. They are both endowed with distinct ... -
Distinguishing Between Private Law and Social–Security Law in Deducting Social Grants from Claims for Loss of Support
