Influence of soil water on stress-strain behaviour of a compacting soil in semi-arid Kenya
(2006)Depending on the top and subsoil textures, semi-arid soils exhibit cohesive and frictional properties that are associated with the relatively high soil strength, bulk density and penetration resistance. The objective of ... -

Influence of tillage practice and draft power requirements and resultant soil micro-structure System System
(Department of Environmental and Biosystems Engineering, University of Nairobi, 1999)We investigated whether resistant pollen genotypes can be selected for when the maternal plants are infected and whether infection can result to changes in the pistil nutrient level influencing reproductive outcome. Both ... -

The Influence of urban public space patterns on degradation of external envelope of urban blocks:
(School of engineering, 2006)A view through Central Business Districts (CBD) of most Kenyan cities show that some buildings have either been abandoned or been left unattended thus, enhancing dereliction and decay of the built environment. Since it ... -
