Malaria vector species distribution and seasonal population dynamics across varied ecological zones in Baringo County, Kenya
(Journal of Mosquito Research, 2017)
Vector populations fluctuate on a seasonal basis annually. Knowledge on seasonal abundance and distribution of vector species at the local level would improve vector control programmes and contribute to malaria prevention. ...
Examining Indicators of Contemporary Value of Chastity among SDA Families in Nyamira County, Kenya
(International Journal of Social Sciences and Information Technology, 2018-06)
Chastity is central value in sustaining moral standards related to sexual actions and maintaining family constancy to facilitate societal perpetuation. Most traditional societies value virginity for girls, and fidelity in ...
On necessary and sufficient conditions for rationality of operator norm bounds in measure spaces
(2016-11)
Norm bounds are useful properties of operators with interesting applications in operator algebras and quantum mechanics. Rationality of these norm bounds is very important in the study of operators in measure spaces. As a ...
Modeling co-infection of paediatric Malaria and Pneumonia
(Int. Journal of Math. Analysis, 2013)
Malaria and persistent childhood diseases are a major threat to child survival in the developing world. In this paper, we develop and analyse a mathematical model for paediatric malaria and pneumonia co-infection. We ...
Influence of self-esteem on job satisfaction of secondary school teachers in kenya
(Scientific & Academic Publishing, 2017)
This study investigated the influence of self-esteem on job satisfaction of secondary school teachers in Kisii Central Sub-County, Kenya. Maslow’s hierarchy of needs and Herzberg’s two factor theories informed the present ...
Modeling of liver cancer risk factors and dynamics at community level
(Hikari, 2017)
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a malignant cancer of the liver arising from uncontrolled multiplication of the abnormal liver cells. It is an ignored public health condition where patients come late to the hospital at ...
Symmetry group approach to the solution of generalized burgers equation: Ut + UUx = λUxx
(2013)
Symmetry of a system of differential equations is a transformation
that maps any solution to another solution of the system. In Lie’s
framework such transformations are groups that depend on continuous
parameters and ...
Attitudes of students and teachers towards use of computer technology in Geography education
(2010)
The ability to display simulated environments through the computer may make it a stimulating instructional tool for illuminating abstract concepts in Geography. In Kenya, there is persistent lack of resources to improve ...
Effects of outliers on estimation of finite population totals
(2013-06)
In this paper, attempt to study effects of outliers on two estimators of finite population total theoretically and by simulation is made. We compare the ratio estimate with the local linear polynomial estimate of finite ...
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 ...
