    Abstract: In statistical decision-making, when Bayes estimator is used as the unknown parameter’s estimation, there often exists certain loss. Then the aim of this paper is to study the Bayes estimation for the loss and risk functions of parameter of Maxwell distribution under Rukhin’s loss function. Bayes estimator is derived on the basis of the inverse gam... Show More

    Abstract: This paper study the Navier-Stoke-Poisson equations for compressible non-Newtonian fluids in one dimensional bounded intervals. The motion of the fluid is driven by the compressible viscous isentropic flow under the self-gravitational and an external force. The local existence and uniqueness of strong solutions was proved based on some compatibilit... Show More
  • Modelling the Effects of Population Dynamics on Solid Waste Generation and Treatment

    Abstract: This paper presents a mathematical model of the effects of population dynamics on solid waste generation and treatment. The model is developed by grouping the population into three age classes and each group considered to have its own solid waste generation rate and natural death rate. The population is assumed to increase due to birth and migratio... Show More
