Modeling the Influence of Raleigh Numbers on Thermal and Fluidic Behaviors in a Trapezoid-shaped Cell
Windé Nongué Daniel Koumbem, Bouwèreou Bignan-Kagomna , Noufou Bagaya , Wend Dolean Arsène Ilboudo, Pare Daouda, Issaka Ouédraogo, Sié Kam
We model the influence of Raleigh numbers in a trapezoidal cavity. One wall among the sloping walls is exposed to a heat flux density Q=100 W/ m2 and the other inclined wall is kept adiabatic. The temperature of the two horizontal walls is assumed to be constant such that Tsup=305K is greater than Tinf=300K. The equations of heat and mass tran(...)

Beyond Economics and Culture: A Demographic Perspective on Contraceptive Theory
Nathalie Sawadogo, Hervé Bassinga, Adèle M. Ngo Bayong Ngock, Zhuang Han, Sarah C. Giroux, Parfait M. Eloundou-Enyegue
Theories of contraception and fertility are currently dominated by economic and cultural arguments. A demographic perspective can usefully expand these theories through “addition,” “explication,” and “reconciliation.” The addition is about drawing attention to salient demographic forces that have previously been underconsidered whether these f(...)

A manganese phthalocyanine histidine composite-modified carbon paste electrode as a biomimetic sensor for bisphenol A determination
Amadou Soukairatou Moustapha, Corneille Bakouan, Abdoulkadri Ayouba Mahamane, Boubié Guel
A biomimetic sensor was prepared from carbon paste electrode (CPE) modified with manganese phthalocyanine (MnPc) and histidine (His), and used for the determination of bisphenol A (BPA). The electrochemical biomimetic sensor (MnPc-His-CPE) gave significant current responses for BPA oxidation in comparison with CPE and MnPc-CPE, individually. T(...)
