    In this thesis, we have homogenization of parabolic partial differential equation using the multiple scale expansion method as its central axis. It consists of two introductory chapters into the theory of homogenization, ...
  • Identification of outstanding performances in senior high school examination 
    Awi, Lawrence Kwesi (University of Cape Coast, 2010-07)
    The study looks at identification of outstanding and abysmal performances of students in examinations involving seven common subjects taken in the first year at Ghana Senior High School in Koforidua. The scores of the ...
  • Indifference Pricing Under Epstein-Zin Utility: Maximum Principle 
    Kamdem, Donatien Wilfried Kuissi (University of Cape Coast, 2018-07)
    The problem of dealing with claims on asset which is not traded has attracted a lot of interests recently. Naturally the approach consist of choosing a related traded asset or index to use for hedging purposes. In this ...
  • Latent factors that affect applicants’ choice of the University of Cape Coast 
    Inkum, Ivy Eyiah (University of Cape Coast, 2012-05)
    Choice of university education in Ghana is a competitive exercise for Senior High School students. Choosing it requires consideration of various factors. The motivation for the study is to measure high school students’ ...
  • Logistic regression analysis of determinant of neonatal mortality in Ghana 
    Okantey, Augusta Hanu (University of Cape Coast, 2008-12)
    According to Black (2003), neonatal mortality accounts for almost 40 per cent of under-five child mortality globally. In Ghana, recent studies argued that mortality among infants and children has been declining. An ...
  • Logistic regression analysis of household income and expenditure patterns in Ghana 
    Nyarku, Ernest (University of Cape Coast, 2008-12)
    Studies into income, expenditure and standard of living of individuals and households are well documented in literature. Many of these studies cover different forms of poverty indicators and variables. The methods used in ...
  • A mathematical model for lending in microfinance and applications 
    Baidoo, Abigail (University of Cape Coast, 2019-07)
    Loan default is one of the major problems facing most financial institutions. The solution to this problem has been the use of a mathematical model to determine the probability of default of clients of these financial ...
  • A mathematical model for the control of malaria 
    Danso-Addo, Ernest (University of Cape Coast, 2009-12)
    Many infectious diseases including malaria are preventable, yet they remain endemic in many communities due to lack of proper, adequate and timely control policies. Strategies for controlling the spread of any infectious ...
  • Mathematical Modelling of Typhoid Fever Disease Incorporating Delay Caused by False Negative Diagnosis 
    Fiadufe, Felix (Universtity of Cape Coast, 2021-12)
    ABSTRACT We developed a mathematical model based on a system of ordinary differential equations to explore the dynamics of typhoid fever sickness, taking into account the delay caused by false negative diagnosis. Typhoid ...
  • Modeling poverty status of Ghanaians: A logistics regression approach 
    Seidu, Omar (University of Cape Coast, 2009-07)
    he poor are not evenly distributed within the country and they do not share the same socio-economic and demographic characteristics. It is against this background that analysis of the characteristics that differentiate the ...
  • Modelling Hepatitis B virus in the Presence of Regular Interventions. 
    Chataa, Paul (UCC, 2020-07)
    Hepatitis B infection remains a global problem since the 1990s in Asia and Africa and the reasons for which the hepatitis B virus disease is still in existence remains poorly understood. Mathematical models of HBV ...
  • Modified Iterative Method for Computing the Approximate Solutions of Nonlinear Equations 
    Adu, Paul (University of Cape Coast, 2020-07)
    This thesis concentrates on developing a Modi ed Iterative Method for computing the approximate solutions of nonlinear equations. We discus the concept of Error Analysis, Errors in Numerical Methods, Approximation and ...
  • Molecular dynamics simulation: from theoretical concept to application 
    Nikingbong, Christopher (University of Cape Coast, 2019-07)
    Molecular dynamics is a computer simulation method that calculates the time dependent behavior of a molecular system. It predicts how the atoms of a given system are moving with respect to time by numerically solving ...
  • Multivariate analysis of food prices in Ghana 
    Seglah, Francis (University Of Cape Coast, 2014-05)
    This study is concerned with the evaluation of the price levels of food items in various markets across Ghana. The objective was to determine the main dimensions along which to identify specific markets in which items ...
  • Multivariate Time Series Modelling of Ex-Pump Prices of Petroleum Products in Ghana 
    Asamoah, Theophilus (University of Cape Coast, 2020-10)
    The purpose of the study is to obtain a suitable model for the ex-pump prices of petroleum products in Ghana. It examines how changes in the prices of one product cause changes in the price of others in both the short and ...
  • Optimal Strategy for Effective Control and Possible Eradication of Malaria 
    Appiah, Perpetual (University of Cape Coast, 2020-07)
    In this thesis, a deterministic mathematical model for the transmission and control of malaria, incorporating prevention and treatment as control parameters has being developed. A novel addition in our model is that, a ...
  • Regularization of ill - conditioned linear systems 
    Acquah, Joseph (University of Cape Coast, 2009-12)
    Ill-conditioned linear systems arise naturally in many applications, especially in the numerical solution of ordinary and partial differential equations, as well as integral equations. In this dissertation, we have studied ...
  • Robust Variational Bayes Analysis of Linear Change-point Problem 
    Asare, Seth (Universtity of Cape Coast, 2021-12)
