Using mathematical models to develop tuberculosis control strategies in Bangladesh

Md Abdul Kuddus used mathematical modelling to investigate the transmission of tuberculosis in Bangladesh, and identify optimal intervention strategies. He found that without rapid improvements in treatment quality the incidence of drug-resistant tuberculosis will continue to rise; whilst reasonable scale-ups of existing control measures can eliminate all tuberculosis in Bangladesh

Peran Serta Masyarakat Terhadap Rehabilitasi Hutan dan Lahan di Kota Palopo

The condition of forest and land damage is a concern for many parties, one of the government’s efforts is through forest and land rehabilitation activities. Forest and land rehabilitation activities are not only the government’s business, but all communities, especially those directly involved in the exploitation of land resources are expected to be able to overcome the problem of land damage. The aim of this research was to determine forest and land rehabilitation activities and community participation in land rehabilitation activities. This research was conducted from April to June 2021. The method used in this research was the descriptive method with observations, direct interviews and taking documentation of activities. The results showed that community participation in forest and land rehabilitation activities had positive and negative roles by forming farmer groups that played an active role by holding consultations with the government in preserving forests

Design and Development of Tender Management and Monitoring System(TMMS)

Tender Management and Monitoring System (TMMS) is a server-based database system developed for Governance Unit, Project Procurement Management Department (PPMD), Technology and Engineering Division (T&E), PETRONAS. As it is a server-based database system, the application of the system would be using the intranet connection available in PETRONAS. The function carried out by the system are insertion, storing, modification and deletion of the databases regarding tender management. This system allocated storage for the user to save data in a systematic way. The objective of having this functionality is to enable a well-organized data storage for tender information within Governance Unit. In addition, the system would also include monitoring and flagging system. This system will automatically notified the user on several important information on tenders especially something related to submission of tender documents. On the other hand, monitoring and flagging system would enable the user to categorize the tenders into different categories based on selected criteria. Hence, the process of enhancing the job efficiency will easily be carried out using the system. The main objective having this system is to provide a system which will improve the efficiency level in the workplace. The methodology used in designing and development of the system is based on Database Management System Lifecycle. The system will be developed using web development software such as Adobe Dreamweaver with the implementation of PHP programming language for integration between web pages and databases. TMMS would also equipped with user interface that will aid the processes carried out by the system in an organized way

Cost Analysis of RCC, Steel and Composite Multi-Storied Car Parking Subjected to High Wind Exposure in Bangladesh

Steel-concrete composite constructions in Bangladesh are nowadays very popular owing to their advantages over conventional concrete and steel constructions. Concrete structures are massive and allot more seismic weight and less deflection whereas steel structures instruct more deflections and ductility to the structure, which is beneficial in resisting earthquake and wind forces. Composite construction combines the better properties of both steel and concrete along with lesser cost, speedy construction, fire protection etc. The objective of this study was to analysis and design ground floor plus 19 storied R.C.C, Steel and Composite (steel-concrete) multi-storied parking structure’s frame of same plan using ETABS 2013 software and compare their structural parameters with estimated cost for required material. All frames are designed for same gravity and dynamic loadings. The RCC deck-slab is used in steel and composite frame. Beam and column sections are made of RCC, steel or steel-concrete composite sections. The composite construction option provided about 25 % and 18% less cost when compared to RCC and steel structure, respectively. Comparative study concludes that the composite frames are best suited among all the three types of constructions in terms of material cost and benefit added with better structural behaviour

Mathematical analysis of a measles transmission dynamics model in Bangladesh with double dose vaccination

Although the availability of the measles vaccine, it is still epidemic in many countries globally, including Bangladesh. Eradication of measles needs to keep the basic reproduction number less than one (i.e.R01) epidemic occurs. While using the Routh-Hurwitz criteria, the equilibria are found to be locally asymptotically stable under the former condition on R0. The partial rank correlation coefficients (PRCCs), a global sensitivity analysis method is used to compute R0 and measles prevalence (I∗) with respect to the estimated and fitted model parameters. We found that the transmission rate (β) had the most significant influence on measles prevalence. Numerical simulations were carried out to commissions our analytical outcomes. These findings show that how progression rate, transmission rate and double dose vaccination rate affect the dynamics of measles prevalence. The information that we generate from this study may help government and public health professionals in making strategies to deal with the omissions of a measles outbreak and thus control and prevent an epidemic in Bangladesh
