Objectives And Key Recommendations Of The Draft National Land Policy
(Real Estate and Construction Management, University of Nairobi, 2009) -
Occupational exposure to roadway emissions and inside informal settlements in sub-Saharan Africa: A pilot study in Nairobi, Kenya
(Univerisyt of Nairobi, 2015)Few studies examine urban air pollution in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA), yet urbanization rates there are among the highest in the world. In this study, we measured 8-hr average occupational exposure levels of fine particulate ... -
Occupational radiation exposures of artisans mining columbite–tantalite in the eastern Democratic Republic of Congo
(2007)Artisans in Masisi and other parts of the North Kivu province in the eastern Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) mine columbite–tantalite mineral ores (also called 'coltan') for the tantalum content. The potential occupational ... -
Off-grid lighting products in Kenya
(2010)Less than 20% of Kenya's population is connected to the grid. Only 5% of the country's rural population, which accounts for over 70% of the total population enjoys electricity connectivity. To compensate for this deficiency ... -
Offshore wind power potential in the Kenyan coastal strip
(University of Nairobi,College of Architecture and Engineering, 2007) -
Oldowan behavior and raw material transport: perspectives from the Kanjera Formation
(Institute of Nuclear Science & Technology, University of Nairobi, 2008)The archaeological record of Oldowan hominins represents a diverse behavioral system. It has been suggested that exploitation of lithic resources by Oldowan hominins was simplistic and represented mostly use of local sources ... -
Oldowan raw material procurement and use: Evidence from the Koobi Fora formatlon
(Institute of Nuclear Science & Technology, University of Nairobi, 2009)Raw material availability has been shown to be a major factor affecting the material culture of Oldowan tool users. Studies of artefact provenance often focus on site-specific raw material availability. Here, we use data ... -
On deviated and branched crack paths in AlLiX alloys
(1996)The origins of deviated and/or branched fatigue crack paths in Alsingle bondLisingle bondX type alloys were investigated. The crack paths were predicted by calculating the orientation of the slip planes in single crystals ... -
On the Performance of Video Band Complex Correlators
(University of Nairobi, 1983-05-19)The performance data for various correlation schemes for Gaussian signals converted from the intermediate frequency band to the video band are derived and discussed. The folded-band conversion scheme is shown to have ... -
On the summer practical Attachment at the Geodetic Survey of Canada, Ottawa
(Department of Geospatial and Space Technology, University of Nairobi, 1986) -
One Hundred Years of the City of Nairobi, Kenya: Towards An Urban Regional Planning Strategy
(University of Nairobi,College of Architecture and Engineering, 2012) -
An Operational Planning Tool For Real And Reactive Power Control
(Electrical and Information Engineering, University of Nairobi, 1992) -
Opportunities for Valuers and Estate Managers in the Kenyan Land Reform.
(Real Estate and Construction Management, University of Nairobi, 2009) -
Opportunities In A Falling Market: What Has Been Happening At The Low End Of The Urban Land Market
(Real Estate and Construction Management, University of Nairobi, 2009)Falling land and property prices which have been experience globally since 2008,present both a challenge and an opportunity.What opportunities does such a market present to government,the private sector and to communities ... -
Optical Remote Sensing
(2013)There are a large variety of systems for collecting remotely sensed data in operation today. -
An Optimal Eigenvalue Based Spectrum Sensing Algorithm for Cognitive Radio
(2015)Spectrum is a scarce resource, and licensed spectrum is intended to be used only by the spectrum owners. Various measurements of spectrum utilization have shown unused resources in frequency, time and space. Cognitive ... -
Optimal error analysis of receive diversity schemes on arbitrarily correlated Rayleigh fading channels
(2016)A simple optimal error analysis of multiple-branch equal gain combining (EGC) and selection combining (SC) in the presence of arbitrarily correlated Rayleigh fading channels is presented. It is shown that the error rates ... -
Optimal Long-term Reactive Power Planning Using Decomposition Techniques
(1991)This paper is to solve an optimal long-term reactive power planning problem. The long-term planning problem is decomposed into three levels using three decomposition techniques. First, the multiyear planning problem is ... -
Optimal placement of a piezoelectric ring in an ultrasonic powder transport system
(2011)The transport of powder materials is an important aspect of process engineering. Various industries such as the food, chemical, pharmaceutical, coating, information and telecommunication industries have set a high demand ...
