Mathematical model of ecological disturbances in the oil rich Niger Delta region of Nigeria

  An important class of interactions between biological species is the stability. We investigate the ecological, biological and economical impacts of petroleum exploration on the Niger Delta region of Southern Nigeria. A modified reaction-diffusion model describing the spread of the predators into the prey populations is adopted to establish the interaction between the parties involved. An attempt was made to...

On two-sample test for detecting differences in the IFR property of life distributions

  A test proposed for testing whether one distribution is more Increasing Failure Rate (IFR) than another, based on a measure of IFR is presented in this paper. The asymptotic normality of the proposed test statistic was also established. The asymptotic null variance from the data was estimated since the variance depends on the unknown distribution. The Pitman asymptotic efficacies of the proposed test...
