In this thesis, we recall three types of convexities in metric spaces, namely; Menger convexity, Takahashi convexity andM-convexity. We then generalise these convexities to the framework of T0-quasi-metric spaces. Since the concept of convexities heavily relies on the concept of betweenness, a...

The design and development of ytterbium-doped fibre lasers (YDFLs) operating around 1018nm laser wavelength and pumped around 976nm has advanced in technology since the first ytterbium laser was tested in 1988. The fiber lasers are used in various sectors such as communications, material...

This research investigated the vulnerabilities of Graphics Processing Units (GPUs) to Denial-of-Service (DoS) and Memory Exploitation sidebar attacks on Windows Operating Systems using recovery time. The simulation results showed that all three Windows operating systems and their respective GPUs...

The visionary concept of extended producer responsibility (EPR) policy advocates a system that aims to increase waste recovery and recycling. Extended producer responsibility policies have been widely adopted since the 1990’s, particularly in developed countries as an effective instrument for...

A number of research concerns have arisen in the concrete research community on the fire resistance of Ultra-High Performance Fibre Reinforced Concrete (UHPFRC) beams, despite their improved mechanical properties at ambient temperature. The traditional experimental approach to performance-based...

This study investigated the understanding which University of Zambia (UNZA) first year students of mathematics had of specific concepts in selected mathematics topics. Procedural and conceptual understanding underpinned the investigation. It was also the intention of the study to determine...

Floods have been one of the recurring hazards with increased magnitude in Botswana due to heavy convective rainfall and tropical cyclones effects which eventually cause flood disasters. Gaborone is one of the areas hardest hit by floods in Botswana, yet the country is always caught off guard by...
