Non-genetic causes of the heterogeneity of variance in milk yield among Holstein-Friesian Herds in Kenya.
(AJOL, 2005)Lactation records of Holstein- Friesian cows in Kenya made during the period 1968 to 1984 were analyzed for the cases of heterogeneity of variance in milk yield among herds using a fixed effect least squares model. Year, ... -
Nonlinear H∞ Guidance Design for Missile against Maneuvering Target
(Science Domain, 2017-05-01)A new guidance law is derived for missile against maneuvering target by adopting nonlinear H∞ control theory. The guidance law is based on three dimension (3D) nonlinear kinematics described by modified polar ... -
Nonzero Lie Brackets of Third Order Nonlinear Ordinary Differential Equation
(ResearchGate, 2018-06)Lie symmetry analysis of Ordinary Differential Equation can be used to obtain exact solution of the equation of the form F (x, y, y’ y’’ y’’’) = 0. In this paper we use Lie Symmetry analysis approach to obtain the nonzero ... -
The norm attainability of some elementary operators
(Applied Mathematics E-Notes, 2012) -
Norm Inequalities for positive elementary operators and entanglement of states
(Journal of Global Research in Mathematical Archives, 2014-05-05)We present norm inequalities for positive elementary operators via Cauchy-Schwarz inequality and Minkowskis inequality techniques. Norm inequalities are presented in Euclidean algebras linked to Minkowski’s light cones. ... -
Norm-Attainability and Range-Kernel Orthogonality of Elementary Operators
(Communications in Advanced Mathematical Sciences, 12/24/2018)Various aspects of elementary operators have been characterized by many mathematicians. In this paper, we consider norm-attainability and orthogonality of these operators in Banach spaces. Characterizations and generalizations ... -
The Notions of ‘Special’ And ‘Experts’ and Their Contribution to Issues of Quality And Equity For The Education of Children With Sen: An Experience From Rural Kenya.
(Journal of Special Needs and Disabilities Studies, 2017)International and national policy documents support the provision of free public education for all children in regular schools, including children with disabilities. This paper is drawn from a study that investigated the ... -
Novation strategies among banks in Eldoret municipality, Kenya
(European Centre for Research Training and Development, 2014)The study aimed at assessing the product innovation strategies adopted by banking industry in Eldoret, Kenya. The study was guided by the following two objectives; to assess product innovation strategies employed by banks ... -
Numerical Analysis of Mathematical Model for Carbon Pollution in Roads with Ventilated Embankments in Absence and Presence of Forced Convection
(International Journal of Multidisciplinary Sciences and Engineering, 2018-11)In this paper, a two-dimensional grid based numerical carbon pollution model for the estimation of carbon pollutant concentrations in roads is developed. The simulations of carbon pollutants in roads with ventilated ... -
Numerical Analysis of Prey Refuge Effects on the Stability of Holling Type III Four-Species Predator Prey System
(Scientific Research Publishing, 2023-06-29)The dynamic behavior of a multi-species system that includes a prey refuge and a Holling type III functional response is examined in this work. The pre-requisites for the presence of the equilibrium points, as well as their ... -
Numerical solution of dynamic vibration equation, ܠሷൌ ܐ܋܍ܛ ܠ
(IJEMS, 2016)In this paper, we examine conservative autonomous dynamic vibration equation, f(x) = sech x which is time vibration of the displacement of a structure due to the internal forces, with no damping or external forcing. Numerical ... -
Numerical solution of dynamic vibration equations
(International Journal of mathematical Archive, 2011-09)In this paper, we examine conservative autonomous dynamic vibration equation, , which is time vibration of the displacement of a structure due to the internal forces, with no damping or external ... -
Nutrient composition of four species of winged termites consumed in western Kenya
(Elsevier, 2013)The objective of this study was to gain knowledge on the nutrient composition of Macrotermes subhylanus, Pseudacanthotermes militaris, Macrotermes bellicosus and Pseudacanthotermes spiniger termite species consumed in ... -
Nutrient fluxes from soil to market in African indigenous vegetables production system
(2017-09)In many smallholder farming systems in sub-Saharan Africa, nutrient supply is either too low leading to soil fertility decline due to soil mining or too high leading to environmental pollution. The aim of our study was the ... -
Nutrients, functional properties, storage stability and costing of complementary foods enriched with either termites and fish or commercial micronutrients
(Wagenigen academic publishers, 2015)Application of edible insects in complementary food production has not been studied much. This study developed and evaluated complementary foods based on edible termites to combat child malnutrition in Kenya. Two complementary ... -
Nutritional and developmental influences on components of rice crop light use efficiency
