Minimum requirements for permanent single storey houses
(1974)The "Minimum Requirements for Permanent Single Sto~y Housing" given in this pamphlet must be regarded as guidelines for those who need a definition of the term "Permanent Housing" in Tanzania. T~ere are three main ... -
The Missing Link: Spatial Information required in the preparation and implementation of Physical Development Plans in Kenya
(2001)Department of Pharmacology and Toxicology, University of Nairobi, Kenya. The relative bioavailabilities of three carbamazepine tablet formulations available in the Kenyan market (Temporal(R), Taver(R) and Carbamazepine ... -
Mitigating Conflicts Over Scarce Water Resources in the Highland-Lowland System of Mount Kenya
(2000)The Mount Kenya region offers a great deal of beautiful scenery and attracts tourists from all over the world. What these tourists may not see, however, is the crucial function of Mount Kenya as a water tower for its ... -
Mobility Plan for Eldoret Town: SSATP, World Bank,
(1997)Within the Sub-Saharan Africa Transport Policy Program (SSATP), the purpose of the Urban Transport component is to identify ways to provide affordable and safe mobility in urban areas, with special regard for the poorest ... -
A model for a four-dimensional integrated regional geodetic network
(1999)Abstract F our-dimensional geo desy deals with in tegrated pro cessing of geo detic observ ations in order to analyse the net w ork geometry and its v ariation with time, when these observ ations dep ... -
A model for a four-dimensional regional geodetic reference datum
(1997)A model for the establishment of a four-dimensional regional geodetic reference datum is presented. Starting from the three-dimensional integrated geodetic network model, formulations for the establishment of a four-dimensional ... -
A model for estimating student unit cost and staffing requirements for university programmes with reference to Kenyan public universities.
(2001)A model for the estimation of student unit costs and the staffing requirements for university academic programmes is presented. The development of the model starts off with the specification of a staff distribution matrix, ... -
A Model for HAZ Hardness Profiles in AI-Li-X Alloys: Application to the AI-Li-Cu Alloy 2095
(1998)In a previous paper (Ref. 1), details were presented of a theoretical model describing the evolution of the hardness profiles in the heat-affected zones (HAZ) of AI-Li-X weldments. The intent of the model was to ... -
A model for heat-affected zone hardness profiles in Al-Li-X alloys
(1998)A model based on reaction kinetics and elemental diffusion is proposed to account for the presence of double inflection in the hardness profiles of the heat-affected zone (HAZ) in weldments of Al-Li-X alloys tested without ... -
A model for the establishment of an integrated regional geodetic datum.
(1993)A model for the establishment of an integrated geodetic datum covering a region is treated. The integrated geodetic datum is understood here to comprise the geoid, the reference ellipsoid, and the positional coordinates. ... -
A Model Hardness for Heat-Affected Zone Profiles in AI-Li-X Alloys
(1998)A model based on reaction kinetics and elemental diffusion is proposed to account for the presence of double inflection in the hardness profiles of the heat-affected zone (HAZ) in weldments of AI-Li-X alloys tested ... -
Modeling of crop stem deflection in the context of combine harvester reel design and operation
(2012)A model of crop stem deflection by the combine harvester reel is formulated. The equations derived thereof are evaluated on the basis of empirical data that were acquired through deflection of crop stems in a ready-for-harvest ... -

Modelling Early Childhood Development Centers in Rwanda
(2012)This paper discusses the crucial role played by architecture in informing decisions and outcomes of a small architectural project focused on breaking the cycle of poverty. It is based on experiences, literature research, ... -
Modelling Hydraulic Conductivity
(2001)A simple analytic model is proposed which predicts the unsaturated hydraulic conductivity curves by using the moisture content-capillary head curve and the measured value of the hydraulic conductivity at saturation. It is ... -
Modelling of irrigation Water Movement in a Distributed Runoff Model,
(2002)The paper forms the first part of an introduction to the SHE, a physically-based, distributed, catchment modelling system produced jointly by the Danish Hydraulic Institute, the British Institute of Hydrology and SOGREAH ... -
Modelling snowmelt in Thiba catchment in central Kenya
(2001)We established, calibrated, and validated a distributed hydrological model for the Thiba catchment in central Kenya. In the 1990s the catchment experienced a sharp increase in the use of water for agriculture. This study ... -
Modelling the potential of rainwater harvesting in western Kenya using remote sensing and GIS techniques
(University of Nairobi, 2014-11)Water scarcity is among the many problems faced today by many countries in the world, especially African countries. The Kakamega area in western Kenya is known for plenty of rainfall (around 2000 mm annually), however, ... -
