Electrochemical catalytic dehalogenation of organohalide pollutants.
(Depatment of Chemistry, University of Nairobi, 1996) -
Electrochemical features of polytidophene on clay modified electrodes
(Depatment of Chemistry, University of Nairobi, 2002)In this thesis, electrochemical analysis of the conducting polymer polythiophene was performed using cyclic voltammetric technique. Carbon graphite was used as the working electrode in the various studies. Potential ... -
The electrochemical study of the factors affecting underground corrosion
(1979)An electrochemical study of some of the factors affecting the corrosion of steel in soils has been carried out. The factors studied were oxygen diffusion rates, soil moisture content, soil resistivity, salt concentrations, ... -
Electrodeposition characteristics of polyaniline conductive polymer
(Depatment of Chemistry, University of Nairobi, 1994)Polyaniline has been shown to be electrosynthesised at very low Sulphuric acid concentration ie. up to 0.5M H2S04. Anodic peak current variation with time has been shown to vary quite haphazardly for various solution pH. ... -
Electrohydrodynamic Atomization of Non-newtonian Liquids With High Solid Content- a Case Study for the Production of Powder.
(University of Nairobi, 2020)Electrohydrodynamic atomization (EHDA) is now a well-known technique among the researchers as a potential technique for industries. The technique uses electric fields to produce mono-dispersed charged droplets and ensures ... -
An Electronic Government Integrated System Using Service Oriented Architecture
(University of NairobiSchool of Computing and Informatics, 2013)The aim of the study was to investigate the application of Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) as an integration solution to disparate departmental government information systems with the aim of improving service delivery. ... -
Electronic Land Registry for Kenya
(School of Computing and Informatics, 2010)Land in most Kenyan societies is the most important of the natural resources, representing the foundation of much of the country's economic activity. For most individual Kenyans, the purchase of a parcel of land represents ... -
Elephants and their interactions with people in the Tana river region of Kenya
(University of NairobiCollege of Biological and Physical Sciences, 1979-05)This dissertation describes and evaluates interactions between elephants and people in the 40,000 km2, semi-arid lower Tana River region of eastern Kenya. Traditional forms of land use pastoralism and flood plain ... -
Elliptic Curves and Elliptic Curve Cryptography
(2009)Koblitz [7, 1987] and independently Miller [10, 1986] suggested the use of the group of points of an elliptic curve de ned over a nite eld Fq. The main incentive for this suggestion was based on the fact that the ... -
Elution And Partial Characterisation Of Immunoglobulins Bound To Goat Placenta
(University of NairobiSchool of Biological Sciences, 2000)The success of viviparous pregnancy in the vertebrate species remains a major puzzle to immunologists. Thus, the fetus is antigenic ally foreign by virtue of its paternally derived genes yet if is not rejected. The ... -
Elution purification and partial characterization of immunoglobulin-G bound to normal and pathological human placentae
(2005)The unexpected failure of the mother to immunologically reject the foetus is partly thought to result from immunological properties of the placentae and other regulatory factors, which include immunoglobulin G (IgG). ... -
EM Algorithm for Poisson-Lindley Distribution
(University of Nairobi, 2021)Mixed Poisson distributions have been used in scientific fields for modelling non-homogenous populations, (Karlis and xekalaki, 2005).. For example, in acturial applications, mixed Poisson distributions are used for ... -
An embedded framework for integrating speed, alcohol and weight monitoring in a public service vehicle
(University of Nairobi, 2014-06)Road Carnage is a great problem in our Kenyan roads. To reduce this, the government have tried to introduce regulatory laws for drivers on the roads. For instance, all public service vehicles except taxi cabs and commercial ... -
Emergency Information Dissemination System
(University of NairobiSchool of Computing and Informatics, 2010)The problem under investigation is on the development of emergency information dissemination. Kenya is faced with many disasters and emergency. There is no clear boundary between an emergency and a disaster except in the ... -
Empirical Analysis Of Seasonal Rainfall Variability And Its Associated Effects On Major Food Crop Yields In Rwanda
(University of Nairobi, 2018)Droughts are common in the lowland areas in the east of Rwanda while floods are frequently observed in the high grounds to the west and north of the country, which may lead to severe negative effects on agriculture during ... -
Empirical bayes credibility theory
(Facult of Science, University of Nairobi, 2005)ABSTRACT Most insurance companies offer short-term contracts as one of their policies. These companies are business entities and should therefore ensure that there is growth on their profit margins. It is therefore ... -
Empirical Distribution Of Returns Of Nairobi Stock Exchange 20 Share Index: 1998-2011
(University of NairobiCollege of Biological and Physical Sciences, 2013-07)The assumption that daily share index prices are normally distributed has long been disputed by the data. In this project, the normality assumption has been tested using time series data of daily NSE 20-Share Index for the ... -
