An evaluation of some robust estimation techniques in the estimation of geodetic parameters.
(1999)
In Part 1 of this study, we reported on an evaluation of the performances of four robust estimation techniques, namely: the modified residuals technique, the modified weights technique, the modified residuals-weights ...
Establishing teaching staff requirements for university academic programmes
(1999)
Describes a computational method used to predict faculty needs and distribution at the University of Nairobi (Kenya). The model is a function of the number of students taught, the hours taught, the manner in which students ...
Geodetic models for monitoring crustal deformation along the African Rift System
(2008)
Continental rupture models emphasize the role of faults in extensional strain accommodation; extension by dyke intrusion is commonly overlooked. A major rifting episode that began in 2005 September in the Afar depression ...
Urbanization Process and the Spread of STDs, HIV and AIDS in Africa
(2003)
It is well known that levels of HIV prevalence tend to be appreciably higher inurban areas. This article considers the reasons for this and shows that within world regions that are relatively homogeneous with respect to ...
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 ...
A three dimensional adjustment model for small scale survey networks.
(1995)
A large-scale investigation of fracture flow was recently conducted in a granite uranium mine at Fanay-Augères, France. Its aim was to develop a methodology for the investigation of possible nuclear waste repository sites ...
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 ...
Methodological Guidelines for Agricultural mechanisation strategy formulation
(1994)
The economies of most countries in Eastern and Southern Africa are going through a dynamic transformation
from centralized to market oriented
economies. The current emphasis on private sector development accompanied
by ...
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 ...
Inculturation of the Catholic Church in Kikuyu Religious Space
(2005)
From the Christian theological perspective, inculturation is understood to be
the process whereby the faith already embodied in one culture encounters
another culture. In this encounter, the faith becomes part and parcel ...
