glass substrate using electro-anodization technique https://vital.seals.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:62201 80°) discovered at 29.43°, 45.10°, 56.52°, 63.5°, 64.92° and 74.81° corresponding to the planes (101), (112), (200), (105), (211) and (204) crystalline structures of the anatase TNTs. The intensity of the peaks increased with increasing annealing temperature. The strong sharp peaks indicate the large quantities and higher degrees of crystallinity of anatase phase of the TNTs. CRS Large Area Scan (LAS) and Depth profiling (DP) were employed to evaluate the crystallinity and phase distribution of TNTs-FS thermally treated at different temperatures. CRS LAS in the XY direction of TNTs-FS revealed the presence of differently crystallized anatase phases of TiO2 with Raman vibrational modes of 159.38 cm-1 (Eg), 208.37 cm-1 (Eg), 399.67 cm-1 (B1g), 514.25 cm-1 (A1g) and 641.58 cm-1 (Eg) for the samples annealed at 350 °C. The effect of annealing temperature on TiO2 phase evolution was meticulously evaluated using CRS for TNTs-FS for the samples annealed at 350 °C, 450 °C, 550 °C and 650 °C. The FWHM was estimated from CRS and decreases with increasing annealing temperature resulting in increasing crystallinity. Increase in anatase FWHM and anatase peak intensity implies higher degree of crystallinity and increasing crystallite sizes were also confirmed by XRD. Growing of titanium dioxide on functional substrates one novel contribution towards the fabrication of efficient electrode materials for solar cell development. Our method of characterizing TNTs-FS from a large area scan along the surface of the samples and depth profiling along the TNTs tube walls using confocal Raman spectroscopy prove to be a pivotal step in the development of efficient photoelectrode materials of the solar devices.]]> Mon 06 Mar 2023 13:37:36 SAST ]]> The use of the cochineal insect, Dactylopius tomentosus Lamarck, as a biological control agent for the invasive alien thistle cholla, Cylindropuntia pallida (Rose) F.M.

These results suggest that there are high levels of localised connectivity between P. commersonnii populations in different habitats although connectivity between distant habitats appears to be rare. Connectivity will likely occur on habitats located close to the boundaries of the WC, EC and KZN. The findings from this long-term monitoring study have shown that adult P. commersonnii rely heavily on the estuarine environment, undertaking short sea trips, thus demonstrating the importance of estuaries to the adult population. Due to various threats faced by estuaries such as habitat degradation and overexploitation, management of these systems is paramount to conserve such fishery resources. Due to the resident behaviour of the P. commersonnii within estuaries, Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) and area closures, in conjunction with Estuarine Protected Areas (EPAs) will be significant in the recovery and management of P. commersonnii populations. Since P. commersonnii appears to reach peak spawning activity during summer when fishing pressure is usually highest, improved enforcement during this period is necessary to conserve the spawning stock. As connectivity is an important aspect in the life of the P. commersonnii, ensuring such connectivity is maintained by protecting all these habitats is important.]]> Fri 18 Feb 2022 10:53:53 SAST ]]> A fuzz testing framework for evaluating and securing network applications https://vital.seals.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:72479 Fri 17 May 2024 12:15:33 SAST ]]> A Framework for the Static Analysis of Malware focusing on Signal Processing Techniques https://vital.seals.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:72473 Fri 17 May 2024 11:38:06 SAST ]]> An understanting of mirrors and mirroring in a schizophrenic patient obsessed with his appearance https://vital.seals.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:45149 Fri 12 Nov 2021 09:37:59 SAST ]]> Grand challenges in urban agriculture: ecological and social approaches to transformative sustainability https://vital.seals.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:69838 Fri 10 May 2024 04:15:52 SAST ]]> Conflict-induced displacement: a study of risk and support for the older refugees in South Africa https://vital.seals.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:52001 Fri 10 Jun 2022 13:00:13 SAST ]]> Ukubamba Umphefumlo Kukuphila: Ingqokelela Yamabali Amafutshane https://vital.seals.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:45220 Fri 08 Jul 2022 09:22:31 SAST ]]> The physical activity status and the impact of lifestyle behaviours on workplace productivity and absenteeism of Transnet employees https://vital.seals.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:44961 0.05). The associations between physical activity and productivity among office workers, however, was both significant (p<0.05) and moderate positive (r=0.39). The vegetable intake among the office workers showed a significant (p<0.05) moderate positive association with productivity (r=0.49). The association between vegetable intake and productivity among the train drivers was not significant (p>0.05) and low positive (r=0.16). There was a significant (p<0.05) and moderate positive association between fruit intake and productivity among both train drivers (r=0.43) and office workers (r=0.47). No significant associations between sedentary behaviour and obesity and productivity were found. The current study provided new insight into the risks associated with lifestyle factors of office workers and train drivers in the transportation sector. The poor lifestyle factors, together with the high prevalence of sedentary behaviour and physical inactivity, provide ideal opportunities for future interventions to focus on workers productivity and overall wellbeing. The job design of train drivers and office workers does not place significant importance on employee health and wellness. Essentially they are not “healthy” but they work productively, giving reason as to why employee wellness is not a priority for employers.
