Financing public universities in Kenya: a model based on rationalised student unit costs and staffing
(2001)Whitehead (1967:4) defines the term “Education is t he acquisition of the art of the utilization of knowledge.” The universities are those institutions that teach learners the art of the utilization of knowle dge. For ... -
A finite element analysis of the effects of an increasing angle on the tower of Pisa
(2001)The Leaning Tower of Pisa has aroused admiration and curiosity throughout the world for its beauty and unusual lean. This study investigates the effects of increasing lean on the structural integrity of the tower. Employing ... -
Finite-element analysis of non-uniform, lossy transmission lines
(1997)This paper presents an overview of the transmission-line matrix (TLM) method of analysis, describing its historical background from Huygens's principle to modem computer formulations. The basic algorithm for simulating ... -
