BAYESIAN INFERENCE OF COVID-19 SPREADING RATES IN SOUTH AFRICA.

Bayesian inference of COVID-19 spreading rates in South Africa.

The Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic has highlighted the need for performing accurate inference with limited data.Fundamental to the design of rapid state responses is the ability to perform epidemiological model parameter inference for localised INCENSE JASMINE trajectory predictions.In this work, we perform Ba

Investigation of Mechanical and Thermal Properties of Polymer Composites Reinforced by Multi-Walled Carbon Nanotube for Reduction of Residual Stresses

The micromechanical models are used to investigate mechanical and thermal properties of a polymer matrix nanocomposite containing multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) in their effects to reduce residual stresses in nanocomposites.To do this, first nanotubes with different weights and volume fractions were dispersed in ML-506 epoxy resin.By using d

LGB prevalence in schools is associated with unhealthy weight-control behaviors in lesbian, gay, and bisexual youth: a multilevel analysis

Abstract Background Previous studies have found that a school climate of more heteronormativity is associated with adverse effects on the mental health of LGB students.Accordingly, our aim was to assess the association between lower LGB prevalence in schools and unhealthy weight-control behaviors among LGB youth.Methods A cross-sectional, multileve
