The governing nonlinear equations of motion are solved analytically with regular perturbation techniques. Third grade fluid is employed to account for the non-Newtonian influence. The influence of some physical parameters involved in the analysis is studied. Results show that the parameter has the tendency of increasing the velocity of the fluid flow as well as the temperature of the cylindrical pipe. It is observed that as the Brinkman parameter increases, the cylindrical wall temperature is enhanced. Entropy generation number for both heat transfer and fluid friction for various values of and is examined. Results indicate that increase in these parameters increases the temperature of the cylinder, thereby increasing the entropy generation number.","PeriodicalId":251990,"journal":{"name":"African Journal of Mathematics and Statistics Studies","volume":"253 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140746261","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The methods are represented by a bottom-up approach where each object starts in its cluster and pairs of clusters are merged as it moves up the hierarchy. In this paper, we present six agglomerative hierarchical clustering methods namely: the single linkage method, complete linkage method, average linkage method, centroid method, median method, and Ward’s method. We also evaluated how these methods work on a practical basis using a matrix of distance pairs of five points. It was observed that the single linkage method through its dendrogram produced the most similarity measure between x_i and x_j, while Ward’s method produced the highest distance measure between x_i and x_j.","PeriodicalId":251990,"journal":{"name":"African Journal of Mathematics and Statistics Studies","volume":"387 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140778765","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

E.","doi":"10.52589/ajmss-luf1et0z","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.52589/ajmss-luf1et0z","url":null,"abstract":"The primary aim of this study was to conduct a comparative analysis of the performance of parsimonious models, specifically the Diagonal Vector Autoregressive (VAR) and Multivariate Autoregressive Distributed Lag (MARDL) Models, using their respective Autocovariance and Autocorrelation properties. This comparison was driven by the imposition of restrictions on parameters within the coefficient matrices, specifically limiting them to diagonal elements. To assess the efficacy of these novel multivariate lag models, we utilised data derived from key macroeconomic variables, including Nigeria's Gross Domestic Product (GDP), Crude Oil Petroleum (C/PET), Agriculture (AGRIC), and Telecommunication (TELECOM). The data was subjected to first-order differencing of the logarithm of the series to ensure stationarity. Subsequently, the models were estimated, and autocovariances and autocorrelations of the processes were derived for the analysis. The empirical findings revealed notable patterns, particularly the direct converse autocorrelation observed in both VAR and MARDL models. The negative autocorrelation identified in the macroeconomic variables suggests that periods of economic expansion were succeeded by contractions and vice versa. This implies a complementary relationship between the two models in effectively capturing the dynamics of multivariate lag variables. In conclusion, our study underscores the significance of considering the Diagonal Vector Autoregressive and Multivariate Autoregressive Distributed Lag Models with restricted parameters in the diagonal elements when modelling multivariate lag variables. These findings contribute to a nuanced understanding of the interplay between economic variables and provide valuable insights for researchers and practitioners in the field.","PeriodicalId":251990,"journal":{"name":"African Journal of Mathematics and Statistics Studies","volume":"46 1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140245398","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It was assumed that the strength-stress factors traced the Frechet, the parameters of the Frechet were estimated by three different estimation methods (Moments, Least Squares and Weighted Least Square,), after which the reliability of the model was estimated. Monte Carlo simulations were also conducted to compare the results and find out which estimation methods are the best to estimate the reliability of the model using two statistical criteria: MSE and MAPE, where it was presented that least square estimation is the preferred for estimating the function of reliability.","PeriodicalId":251990,"journal":{"name":"African Journal of Mathematics and Statistics Studies","volume":"32 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139868795","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
