Mathematical and Statistical Population Models: Elephants Population Modeling
(University of NairobiSchool of Mathematics, 2013)Population modeling is an area of interest in mathematics, statistics, population studies and ecological management among others disciplines. Population of wild animals especially those classifier as endangered species ... -
A Mathematical Model For The Control Of Malaria With Temporary Immunity
(University of NairobiSchool of mathematics,, 2013)Malaria is an infectious disease transmitted between humans through mosquito bites that kill about two million people a year. Many infectious diseases including malaria are preventable, yet they remain ... -
A Mathematical model for the dynamics of dengue virus disease transmission in Mandera County-Kenya
(University of Nairobi, 2021)The aim of this project is to formulate a mathematical model for the dynamics of dengue virus disease transmission a case study of Mandera County Kenya.The compartmental model with 5-sate variables was developed to show ... -
A mathematical model for the effects of drug abuse in transmission of Hiv/aids in Turkana county.
(University of Nairobi, 2020)Drugs and substance misuse has been recognized to have a significant impact on the spread of HIV/AIDS epidemic. We formulate a deterministic model to assess the contribution of drug and substance abuse to the spread of ... -
A Mathematical Model For The Transmission Dynamics Of Influenza With Respect To Seasonal Weather Variables In Kenya
(UoN, 2019)The aim of this project is to carry out a research on the e ects of weather variables on the seasonality of in uenza. For this purpose we formulate a compartmental model to represent in uenza transmission dynamics. In ... -
A Mathematical Model Of Rift Valley Fever In Livestock In Kenya
(University Of Nairobi, 2014-07) -
Mathematical modeling of HIV and Malaria co-infection dynamics
(University of Nairobi, 2015)We formulate a mathematical mo del using system of differential equations to understand the co-dynamics of two diseases HIV and Malaria. The entire human p opulation is divided into four compartments and mosquito p ... -
Mathematical Modeling Of The Effects Of Seasonal And Environmental Factors On Endemic Malaria
(University of Nairobi, 2012-01)Malaria is a vector borne disease that has plagued mankind for long and is one of the top five killer diseases in the world. WHO estimates that about 50% of the world's total populations live in areas where malaria is ... -
Mathematical Modelling of Hiv-aids Transmission Dynamics Coupled With Awareness Among Adolescents and Young Adults in Kenya
(University of Nairobi, 2021)Although HIV/AIDS containment campaigns have recorded substantial success within the past decade, the disease still poses a big health concern to many developing countries, including Kenya. We develop deterministic models ... -
Mathematical modelling of the Olkaria Geothermal Reservoir
(School of Mathematics, University of Nairobi, 1996)The basic equations which govern the flow of fluids in a geothermal reservoir (often a two-phase mixture of steam. and water) are outlined. The governing nonlinear system of partial differential equations that arises ... -
Mathematical Models In Portfolio Selection: The case Of The Emerging Nairobi Stock Exchange
(University of NairobiSchool of Mathematics, 2011)A GREAT deal of theoretical and empirical work has been carried out in recent years, on the use of mathematical models as an aid to the selection of investment portfolios containing equities. Some of the models have been ... -

Maximal numerical range of Operators in hilbert spaces
(School of Mathematics, University of Nairobi, 1998)The maximal numerical range of a linear operator T, on a Hilbert space H, denoted by Wo(T), is a subset of the complex field C. It is a relatively new concept in ..operator theory, having been introduced only in 1970 ... -
Maximising lifetime of wireless sensor networks using distributed scheduling algorithms with adjustable sensing range.
(University of NairobiSchool of Computing and Informatics, 2011)Optimizing the energy consumption in wireless sensor networks has recently become the most important performance objective. In this project we define the lifetime of a wireless sensor network as the amount of time that ... -
Maximum Entropy Modelling of Parthenium Hysterophorus L. Under Current and Projected Climate Change Within the Maasai Mara Ecosystem
(University of Nairobi, 2022)Land managers are increasingly using Species Distribution Models (SDMs) in modeling potential geographical distribution of Invasive Alien Plant Species (IAPS). These models show current distribution and also areas prone ... -
Mean and seasonal diurnal variation of precipitation in East Africa
(University of Nairobi, 1983)This study was undertaken to establish the geographical and seasonal distribution of the diurnal variation of precipitation in East Africa. An analysis of the diurnal variation of precipitation at about fifty different ... -
