  • On a liquid drop ”falling” in a heavier miscible fluid 
    Buah-Bassuah, Paul K.; Rojas, Rene; Residori, Stefania; Arecchi, F.T. (University of Cape Coast, 2005)
    We report a new type of drop instability, where the density difference between the drop and the solvent is negative. We show that the drop falls inside the solvent down to a minimum height, then fragmentation takes place ...
  • On Behaviour of a host-vector epidemic model with non-linear incidence 
    Akoto, Bismark; Essel, Emmanuel Kwame; S¨oderbacka, Gunnar (University of Cape Coast, 2012)
    In this paper we find the possible phase portraits and bifurcations for a general class of host-vector epidemic models with non-linear incidence function generalizing the Ross model

  • On inherent complement verbs in Kwa 
    Korsah, Sampson (University of Cape Coast, 2014)
    Several analyses have been proposed for the “inherent complement erbs” (ICVs) of the Kwa languages. In this paper, I propose that given the morphosyntactic and semantic properties of both the erb and its complement, it ...
  • On the amplification of acoustic phonons in carbon nanotube 
    Dompreh, K. A.; Mensah, N. G.; Sakyi-Arthur, D.; Mensah, S. Y. (University of Cape Coast, 2016)
    We present a theoretical study of acoustic phonons amplification in Carbon Nanotubes (CNT). The phenomenon is via Cerenkov emission (CE) of acoustic phonons using intraband transitions proposed by Mensah et. al., [1] in ...
  • On the detection of influential outliers in linear regression analysis 
    Zakaria, Arimiyaw; Howard, Nathaniel Kwamina; Nkansah, Bismark Kwao (University of Cape Coast, 2014-07-30)
    In this paper, we propose a measure for detecting influential outliers in linear regression analysis. The performance of the proposed method, called the Coefficient of Determination Ratio (CDR), is then compared with some ...
  • On the existence of positive periodic solutions for totally nonlinear neutral differential equations of the second-order with functional delay 
    Essel, Emmanuel K.; Yankson, Ernest (University of Cape Coast, 2014)
    We prove that the totally nonlinear second-order neutral diferential equation dt2x(t) + p(t)ddtx(t) + q(t)h(x(t)) =ddtc(t, x(t − τ (t))) + f(t, ρ(x(t)), g(x(t − τ (t)))) has positive periodic solutions by employing the ...

    This study examines the language of scam, focusing on one key lexicogrammatical system for representing experience, the system of TRANSITIVITY. The study is informed by systemic functional linguistics theory and is based ...
  • On the one-outlier displaying component 
    Nkansah, B.K.; Gordor, B.K. (University of Cape Coast, 2012)
    A method of displaying an outlier in a multivariate data set is the Outlier Displaying Component. This method is based on the sample mean vector and the sum of squares and cross- product matrix. The main weakness of this ...
  • On-Site Sanitation Systems for Low-Income Countries: Technical Guidelines for Groundwater Pollution and Nuisance Control
