Structural and electrical properties of antiferroelectric lead zirconate thin films prepared by reactive magnetron co-sputtering
(1997)
The structural and electrical properties of antiferroelectric lead zirconate thin films were investigated. The films were prepared by a reactive magnetron co-sputtering method followed by rapid thermal annealing. The ...
A three dimensional geodetic network model for the analysis of localised earth deformation.
(1997)
Mathematical models, within the framework of integrated geodetic networks, for localised threedimensional geodetic monitoring networks are presented. The formulation of the mathematical models is based on the kinematic ...

Estimation of Infiltration Parameters at the Steepland Research Station, Kabete, Nairobi, Kenya
(1997)
This study proposes a method for the estimation of lag time of forested mountainous watersheds. Hydrological flood-flow design methods require a time parameter, such as lag time or time of concentration, to estimate peak ...
Finite-element analysis of non-uniform, lossy transmission lines
(1997)
This paper presents an overview of the transmission-line matrix (TLM) method of analysis, describing its historical background from Huygens's principle to modem computer formulations. The basic algorithm for simulating ...
Some Mechanical properties of sisal fibre concrete
(1997)
Sisal fibre is a promising reinforcement for use in composites on account of its low cost, low density, high specific strength and modulus, no health risk, easy availability in some countries and renewability. In recent ...
Rural/Urban Linkages in Kenya and Zimbabwe: A Comparative Perspective
(1997)
Sub-Saharan Africa is steadily becoming less rural in character. For decades development thinking has prescribed industrialization as the virtuous path leading away from economic dependence on agriculture. But Africa's ...
The conflicts, shortcomings, and implications of the urban land management system in Kenya
(1997)
Particularly during the last decade, there has been a clear recognition of the importance of urban land management in helping to alleviate urban poverty in the developing countries. It is argued that, managing the economic ...
An Investigation of the Mechanical Properties of Sisal Fibre, Loofah Matt And their Composites with Epoxy Resin
(1997)
The mechanical properties of sisal fibre, loofah matt, epoxy resin and their resulting composites were determined experimentally. The influence of volume fraction of the reinforcing fibres and matt on the mechanical ...
