(North-West University (South Africa), 2017)The study will contribute to the knowledge gap regarding employees' perceptions of the effectiveness of the PMS. Additionally, the study will be used as a benchmark for other provincial departments to emulate in evaluating ... -
Estimating animal populations and body sizes from burrows: Marine ecologists have their heads buried in the sand
(Elsevier, 2016)Most ecological studies require knowledge of animal abundance, but it can be challenging and destructive of habitat to obtain accurate density estimates for cryptic species, such as crustaceans that tunnel deeply into the ... -
An intelligent freight corridor overload control system
(IEEE, 2014)Overload control is an important aspect of freight corridors in developing countries that largely depend on road transport to move goods between ports and areas of production and consumption. As the frequent weighing ... -
A novel approach to noninvasive measurement of overhead line impedance parameters
(IEEE, 2017)Transmission line impedance parameter estimation forms an essential part in modeling and monitoring of electricity networks. The accuracy of the estimated parameters has a direct impact on various functions of network ... -
