A new approach to ensure successful implementation of sustainable demand side management (DSM) in South African mines
(Elsevier, 2008)Demand side management (DSM) is seen as a short-term solution to the imminent problem of electricity supply shortages in South Africa. DSM aims to reduce peak loads with immediate results in a short time. The mining sector ... -
A new approach to function-based hypothesis testing in location-scale families
(Taylor & Francis, 2013)Motivated by two applications in the mining industry, we introduce a new approach to testing the hypothesis that two-sampled distributions are simply location and scale changes of one another. The test, applicable to both ... -
