    Iterative methods for approximate solution of the Ornstein- Uhlenbeck process with normalised brownian motion

    Get PDF
    This work considers the concept of the Normalised Brownian motion for the solutions of the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process using the Daftardar-Jafari Method (DJM) and Picard Iterative Method (PIM) as the approximate-analytical methods of solutions. The results obtained from DJM are compared with those of the PIM. The obtained results, therefore, show the effectiveness of the proposed method

    Relationship Between the Standard of Living, Economic Situation, and Security Situation of Nigerians During The Covid-19 Pandemic. A Non-Parametric Analysis Approach

    The Covid-19 pandemic has crippled the economic activities of so many nations across the globe since its outbreak in 2019. This study is focused on the resultant effect of the covid-19 pandemic in terms of standard of living, perception of economic and security situation of Nigerians. This study used a non-parametric approach involving Spearman rank correlation and Mann-Whitney U to analyze primary data acquired from NoiPolls’ online administration of questionnaires during the Covid-19. The result obtained from this study depicts that there is a significant relationship between the security situation and perception of the country’s economic situation. The standard of living of Nigerians was studied alongside their perception of the economic situation and we observed that there is a significant relationship between these two. This was also examined based on gender, the Mann-Whitney U test was used to check if there exists any form of difference between males and females based on the security situation, economic perception, and standard of living. The test result showed that there is no significant difference in the standard of living of both males and females but significant differences were observed in the economic perception and security situations. A bar chart was further used to visually assess these differences where it is seen that females feel more secure compared to males and females feel less satisfied with the country’s economic situation compared to the males

    ON STABILITY OF QUANTUM STOCHASTIC DIFFERENTIAL EQUATION

    Get PDF
    The long run behaviour of solutions of Lipschitzian quantum stochastic differential equation (QSDE) with non-instantaneous impulse is studied. This is achieved by imposing some conditions on the coefficients associated with the map P. Using the fixed point approach, we show that a solution exists under the given conditions and subsequently establish Ulam's type stability. We present some examples to further justify its application

    On the Performance of Dirichlet Prior Mixture of Generalized Linear Mixed Models for Zero Truncated Count Data

    Get PDF
    In this study, the performance of Dirichlet Process Mixture of Generalized Linear Mixed Models (DPMGLMMs) was examined against some competing models for fitting zero-truncated count data. The Bayesian models such as Monte Carlo Markov Chain GLMMs, Bayesian Discrete Weibull and the frequentists models such as Zero truncated Poisson, Zero truncated Binomial and Zero truncated Geometric models were compared with the proposed DPMGLMMs model. Simulation and life count data from health domain was used to compare the performance of DPMGLMM with the Bayesian and frequentist models considered in this study. The results showed that the DPMGLMM outperformed other models considered for fitting count data that is truncated at zero

    Iterative methods for solving Riccati differential equations

    Get PDF
    This work considers the approximate solution of the Riccati differential equations (RDEs). For ease of computation, the iterative methods applied are the Daftardar-Gejji and Jafari Method (DJM) and the Picard Iteration Method (PIM). The results obtained via the DJM are compared with those from PIM. The comparison shows that both methods are in agreement with the corresponding exact form. The Picard approach transforms the differential equation into an interconnected form; though, Lipschitz's criterion of consistency but satisfied

    Elzaki decomposition method for approximate solution of a one-dimensional heat model with axial symmetry

    Get PDF
    This paper considers the application of the Elzaki Decomposition Method (EDM) for approximate solution of a one-dimensional heat model with axial symmetry. By the proposed EADM, the series solutions of the sampled cases are obtained with ease and high level of accuracy as regards less computational time. These results, therefore, show the effectiveness of the proposed method

    Frobenius method for the solution of Klein-Gordon-Fock equation with equal scalar and vector oscillator plus potential

    Get PDF
    In this paper, the solution of Klein Gordon Equation is sought. Frobenius method was used to solve the Klein Gordon (KG) equation with equal scalar and vector harmonic oscillator plus inverse quadratic potential for s - waves. A corresponding un-normalized wavefunction was obtained for the Frobenius equation in the form of a power series

    The effect of residence time and temperature on product yields during the pyrolysis of coconut husks

    Get PDF
    This study explains the effect of residence time and temperature on product yield obtained from Coconut husks' pyrolysis. The husk of the coconut was prepared in the required sizes for the experiment. The experiment was carried out on eighteen different coconut husks at different temperature ranges and varying residence time. The coconut husk pyrolysis was confirmed to give three product yields: char (solid), tar (liquid), and the gaseous fuel, while a polynomial regression model was developed using the Response surface methodology (RSM) to create a polynomial regression model. The effect of pyrolysis temperature level change and its product yield duration was investigated using Full Factorial Design (FFD). Generally, during the pyrolysis process, it can be observed that temperature and reaction time have a strong outcome on the product yields. When the pyrolysis temperature increases at constant residence time, the biogas production increases, and vice versa
