The Kuils River Catchment is an urban river catchment that forms part of the larger Kuils-Eerste River system draining the eastern half of the Cape Metropolitan Authority area and Stellenbosch Municipality. Rapid urbanisation ...
The Use of Treated Effluent for Agricultural Irrigation in the Bottelary River Area: Effluent Quality, Farmers Perception and Potential Extent
(University of the Western Cape, 2005)
The Bottelary River area is located in a Mediterranean climate region, where the agricultural sector plays an important role. During the dry summer season, there is not enough precipitation to meet the agricultural irrigation ...
Pairings of binary reflexive relational structures
(University of the Western Cape, 2007)
The main purpose of this thesis is to study the interplay between relational structures and topology, and to portray pairings in terms of some finite poset models and order preserving maps. We show the interrelations between ...
The Development of Appropriate Brine Electrolysers for Disinfection of Rural water supplies
(University of the Western Cape, 2005)
A comparative study of electrolysers using different anodic materials for the electrolysis of brine (sodium chloride) for the production of sodium hypochlorite as a source of A comparative study of electrolysers using ...
Character tables of some groups of extension type
(University of the Western Cape, 2002)
The main aim of this mini-thesis is to give a description of some of the basic methods and techniques
that have been developed to calculate the character tables of groups of extension type. We restrict
our attention to ...
The Shallow water bryozoans of the West Coast of South Africa
(University of the Western Cape, 2005)
The South African biota is characterised by high levels of diversity and endemism. While commercially viable taxa have been well-studied, cryptic organisms such as bryozoans, have been neglected in terms of study. Taxonomic ...
The Complexity of Splay Trees and Skip Lists
(University of the Western Cape, 2008)
Binary search trees (BSTs) are important data structures which are widely used
in various guises. Splay trees are a specific kind of binary search tree, one without
explicit balancing. Skip lists use more space than BSTs ...

Nano-devices are the next step in the application of nanomaterials in modern technology. One area of research that is receiving an increased amount of attention globally is the fabrication of new nano-devices for applications ...
Preferential flow modelling in a vadose zone using macro 5.0 - Cape Flats porous sands and Mpumalanga highveld clays case studies
(University of the Western Cape, 2008)
Understanding fluid flow and solute transport within the vadose (unsaturated) zone is an essential prerequisite for protection of groundwater from contaminant sources occurring overland. Preferential flow paths in the ...
