The effect of different magnetospheric structures on predictions of gamma-ray pulsar light curves
(SAIP, 2014)The second pulsar catalogue of the Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) will contain in excess of 100 gamma-ray pulsars. The light curves (LCs) of these pulsars exhibit a variety of shapes, and also different relative phase ... -
The effect of different magnetospheric structures on predictions of gamma-ray pulsar light curves
(South African Institute of Physics, 2012)The second pulsar catalogue of the Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) will contain in excess of 100 gamma-ray pulsars. The light curves (LCs) of these pulsars exhibit a variety of shapes, and also different relative phase ... -
The effect of different modulators on the transport of rhodamine 123 across rat jejunum using the sweetana-grass diffusion method
(North-West University, 2004)P-glycoprotein (Pgp), which leads to multidrug resistance in tumour cells, is an ATP-dependent secretory drug efflux pump. In the intestine, as well as at specific other epithelial and endothelial sites, P-glycoprotein ... -
The effect of different ozone concentrations on white blood cell energy homeostasis
(North-West University, 2006)Ozone therapy is an alternative form of therapy that has gained attention in the last couple of years. It is believed that O3 may exert a stimulatory effect on the antioxidant defence and immune systems and may therefore ... -
Effect of different plant substrates and growth hormones on the development characteristics and nutrient content of Pleurotus ostreatus in semi-arid conditions
(North-West University (South Africa), Mafikeng Campus, 2017)With the global and local need to identify low-cost sustainable sources of protein and essential minerals for human nutrition the study was undertaken to investigate effect of different plant growth substrates and hormones ... -
The effect of different sample preparatory protocols on the induction of the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) in the H4IIE–luc reporter gene bio–assay
(North-West University, 2012)Concern on a global scale gave rise to the founding of the Stockholm Convention on persistent organic pollutants (POPs) with a view to restrict the use and production of these toxic chemicals. As a signatory, South Africa ... -
The effect of different visual variables and images on the reaction of a general target market
(North-West University, 2018)The unmanageable amounts of marketing information consumers are exposed to - also known as marketing clutter - are identified as one of the major problems that the modern marketing specialist faces on a daily basis. The ... -
Effect of different water regimes on nematode reproduction, root galling, plant growth and yield of lowland and upland Asian rice varieties grown in two soil types infested by the rice root–knot nematode Meloidogyne graminicola
(Russian Academy of Sciences, 2015)In a screenhouse experiment, plants of the lowland rice variety Thihtayin and the upland rice variety Kone Myint 2 were grown in two soil types (clay loam and sandy loam), inoculated with 3,000 Meloidogyne graminicola ... -
The effect of diffusion on the particle spectra in pulsar wind nebulae
(IOP Publishing, 2013)A possible way to calculate particle spectra as a function of position in pulsar wind nebulae is to solve a Fokker–Planck transport equation. This paper presents numerical solutions to the transport equation with the ... -
Effect of dipole corrections and spin orbit coupling on tungsten dichalcogenides monolayer: a in silico first principles study
(IEEE, 2018)The structural and electronic properties of tungsten dichalogenides compounds (WS 2 , WSe 2 , WTe 2 ) were investigated from first principles calculations. We found that the structural and electronic properties changed ... -
Effect of disaster training on knowledge regarding flood risk management amongst families with older people
(OASIS, 2022)The elderly population is of utmost importance amongst vulnerable populations during disasters because they experience reduced functional abilities, cognitive disturbance, dementia, weak physical conditions and various ... -
The effect of distributed generation on the quality of power
(North-West University, 2006)This document presents a study of the effects distributed generation (DG) has on the power quality (PQ) of electrical power networks. At the time the study was proposed the scheme of DG was speculative by nature and the ... -
The effect of diversity on teams in selected manufacturing organisations
(North-West University, 2010)This study investigates employees' perceptions of diversity and its impact on the workplace, as perceived by employees themselves. The focus will specifically be on external diversity factors such as culture, race and ... -
The effect of drift on the evolution of the electron/positron spectra in an axisymmetric pulsar wind nebula
(IOP Publishing, 2014)Charged particles propagating through a structured magnetic field are subject to drift motion. The primary aim of the present paper is therefore to investigate the effects of gradient, curvature, and neutral sheet drift ... -
Effect of drying method on the chemical composition of leaves from four tropical tree species
(University of West Indies Press, 2014)Drying techniques are an important variable in forage evaluation because they affect the accuracy with which the composition of fresh plant material is determined. This study investigated the effect of five drying methods ... -
