Transformation between GPS coordinates and local plane UTM coordinates using the Excel spreadsheet.
(2002)A procedure for obtaining plane UTM grid coordinates from GPS coordinates based on WGS84 reference system by use of Excel spreadsheet is outlined The geographical coordinates obtained from GPS observations are transfornted ... -
Transformation of Art and Architecture of Maasai.
(2006)Historically, it has been observed that people's settlements tend to change with their changing cultural values. Societies in early and rapid transition offer rich laboratories for the testing of this observation. The ... -
Transient Analysis of a Single-Server Queue with Batch Arrivals Using Modeling and Functions Akin to the Modified Bessel Functions
(2009)The paper considers a single-server queue with fixed-size batch Poisson arrivals and exponential service times, a model that is useful for a buffer that accepts messages arriving as fixed size batches of packets and releases ... -
Transient flow development due to a strong heat source in the atmosphere; Part I:
(1980)This paper describes a finite difference experiment to simulate the transient development of the convection column above a strip of uniform high temperature source in a stratified uniform cross flow atmosphere. The κ-ε ... -
Transition from Brittle Failure to Ductile Flow in a Sandy Soil
(2007)A series of experiments were carried out using a triaxial system modified for unsaturated soil testing to investigate brittle transitional and ductile failure behaviour of a sandy clay loam soil under varying soil water ... -
Transition from Brittle Failure to Ductile Flow of a luvisol Soil
(2006)A comprehensive programme of triaxial compression tests was carried out on unsaturated samples of a sand, a loam soil and a clay. The samples were prepared under laboratory conditions in two microstructural states where ... -
Transportation and Characteristics of Urban Travel in Nairobi:
(1992)Market access measures employed by economists and spatial analysts may not adequately capture local market or product-specific variation. Analysis is conducted on the effects of market access on two commodities in the ... -

Triaxial testing of a Cemented Agricultural Soil under Varying Soil Water Levels
(2005)The soil-water characteristic curve can be used to estimate various parameters used to describe unsaturated soil behaviour. A general equation for the soil-water characteristic curve is proposed. A nonlinear, least-squares ... -
Turbulence structure in triangular subchannels of a reactor bundle model
(University of Nairobi, 1991)Presented is a study of turbulence structure in two triangular subchannels of a reactor bundle at both design condition and a case when one of the outermost rods is in contact with the wall. Measured parameters include rms ... -
