Numerical modelling of current transfer in nonlinear anisotropic conductive media
Current transfer behaviour in anisotropic superconducting bodies is the central topic of this thesis and focuses on the effect that the nonlinearity of the electric field dependence upon the local current density value and anisotropy have on the nature of current transport. The main motivation for …

Transfer pricing : an evaluation of section 31 of the Income Tax Act
… of the international principles relating to transfer pricing in its domestic legislation as encapsulated in section 31 of the Income Tax Act No. 58 of 1962. Transfer pricing is currently one of the more important short term international tax considerations, specifically in the South African …

Transferring big data across the globe
… dramatically increased over the past few years. Transferring a gigabyte of data in an entire day was normal, however users are now transmitting multiple gigabytes in a single hour. With the influx of big data and massive scientific data sets that are measured in tens of petabytes, a user has the …

Energy Harvesting Applications of Ionic Polymers
… to ascertain whether the idea is feasible. Transfer functions are constructed for both the open-circuit voltage and the closed-circuit current. The impedance of the device is also quantified. Using the voltage transfer function and the current transfer function it is possible to calculate …

Advanced transfer printing methods and their applications to functional surfaces
Transfer printing is a method to transfer homogeneous or heterogeneous materials called ‘inks’ from a donor substrate where they are produced to a receiving substrate where they are utilized via a polymeric stamp. Transfer printing inherently promises the heterogeneous material integration to …

From lost to found: the silent transfer of patients on Antiretroviral Therapy in Khayelitsha, South Africa
Incorrect classification of silent transfer (STF) patients as lost to follow-up (LTF) negatively impacts accurate assessment of retention in care for antiretroviral (ART) programmes. Understanding reasons why patients STF and what proportion of LTF patients constitute this silent transfer …

Electropolishing of Niobium in Sulfuric Acid-Methanol Electrolytes: Development of Hydrofluoric Acid-Free Electrolytes
… acid (HF)-containing electrolytes is the currently accepted treatment process. The presence of HF is necessary for the removal of the passive oxide surface film formed in aqueous electrolytes. But HF is hazardous and must be contained without human exposure and eliminated in an …

The OECD transfer pricing guidelines: an analysis of their application in the South Africa legal regime
… transactions amongst entities form the basis of transfer pricing legal regulatory regime in South Africa. The arm's length principle forms the backbone of applying the provisions of the section. The existing legislation is wide in scope hence difficult to apply on the taxpayer's hand; …

The initiation of action potentials and the passive electrical properties of identified snail neurones
… morphology, determine the efficiency of synaptic current transfer to the impulse initiation zone. A general analysis was made of the problems of estimating the electrical properties of a neurone from the measured input impedance with the aid of equations for the input impedance. These equations …

The Electronic Properties of Thin Film YBa2Cu3O7 Low Angle Grain Boundaries
Critical currents in the latest biaxially textured ‘coated conductors’ are now limited by 2D networks of low angle grain boundaries (LAGBs) with misorientation θm = 1 - 10°. In order to understand and optimise current transfer in these materials it is essential to elucidate the electromagnetic …
