"Simulation of Reservoir Operation - Kidatu Reservoir 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 ... -
Simulation of the Microclimate in Poultry Structures in Kenya
(Department of Environmental and Biosystems Engineering, 2011)A computer model based on the thermodynamic principles was developed for simulating the internal temperature responses in a naturally ventilated broiler chicken house. The model used transient thermal analysis with suitable ... -
Single-span, Continuous and Slender Deep Beams Made of High Strength Concrete
