Nuclear Forensics Analysis Of Fission Products By Means Of Chemometric Laser Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy
(University of Nairobi, 2018)In the wake of the current global nuclear renaissance, the threat of terrorism involving nuclear materials is real. The lethality involving detonated improvised nuclear devices (IND) “dirty bombs” or even radiological ... -
Nucleotide Diversity of Common Bean Phaseolin (α-phs) Gene and Its Association With Seed Protein Content
(University of Nairobi, 2022)Phaseolin (α-Phs) is the most abundant protein reserve in seeds of common beans accounting for 40 – 50 % of the total seed protein. Despite having low methionine (0.5 - 0.80 %) content, phaseolin is the primary source of ... -
Nucleotide sequence polymorphism in region I of the gene encoding erythrocyte binding-like protein, ebl-1 in Kenyan plasmodium falciparum field isolates
(University of Nairobi, Kenya, 2011)Malaria is a major health challenge facing Africa where it kills one child every 30 seconds. A vaccine is the ideal long-term solution for resource poor countries but there is as yet no . effective vaccine. Several merozoite ... -

Numerical Bifurcation Analysis For Advective-Diffusive Equations In Climate Modelling
(University Of Nairobi, 2016)The earth's climate system is a highly complex, interconnected system formed by the atmosphere, land surface, ocean and snow together with all living organisms and powered by the solar radiation. Mathematical models have ... -
Numerical Computation of Heat and Mass Diffusion
(1996)Channel flows depicting that of a river in which effluents are released at half the river depth and in the middle of the stream width is numerically modelled using the K-E model. The flow modelled was such that the main ... -

Numerical Simulation of Soil Resistance in Ripping: A case study of a Sandy Clay Soil
(University of Nairobi, 2015)In this study, a numerical model based on field experiments, laboratory experiments and simulation was developed to predict the soil resistance to ripping in a sandy clay soil. The study identified the soil and operational ... -
Numerical simulation of the impact of urbanization on the micro climate over Nairobi area
(Department of Meteorology, University of Nairobi,, 2000)The present study investigated the effect of land-use/land-cover changes, including urbanization of the metro area (urban built-up area) and landscape changes (topography), on the microclimate over Cosmopolitan Nairobi ... -
Numerical simulation of the influence of mesoscale forcing on the large-scale flow and weather over Ethiopia
(Department of Meteorology University of Nairobi, 2003)The influence of large-scale monsoonal winds and thermally-induced mesoscale circulations on the diurnal weather pattern over Ethiopia was investigated in this study using a three-dimensional limited area model known as ... -
Numerical simulation of the influence of the large-scale Monsoon flow on the diurnal weather patterns over Kenya
(Department of Meteorology University of Nairobi, 1992)The influence of the large-scale monsoonal wind systems on the diurnal weather patterns over Kenya was investigated in this study using a three-dimensional limited-area model known as the Regional Atmospheric Modeling ... -
Numerical simulation of the influence of the sea surface temperature anomalies on the east African seasonal :rainfall
