Maternal Health Care Choices among Women in Lunga Lunga Sub County in Kwale County-Kenya
(World Journal of Innovative Research, 2020)
Maternal and neonatal morbidity and mortality are major public health concerns in most developing countries and in under resourced settings. Provision of safe motherhood is of utmost importance in the reduction of maternal ...
Magnetocaloric Effect and Sign Reversal of Magnetic Entropy Change Across the Spin Reorientation Temperature in R3Fe5O12 (R = Gd, Dy)
(Elsevier, 2020-04-15)
The cubic structure with space group Ia3‾d for Gd3Fe5O12 and Dy3Fe5O12 are successfully synthesized and the magnetic behaviors are studied in details. The dc magnetization measurements show that an obvious negative ...
Spin Reorientation, Normal and Inverse Magnetocaloric Effects in Heavy Rare-Earth Iron Garnets
(Elsevier, 2020-08-01)
Experiments for heavy rare-earth iron garnets Ho3Fe5O12 and Er3Fe5O12 show a compensation effect characterized by a near zero magnetization at 134 K and 80 K, respectively. The magnetic entropy change calculated according ...
Agronomic Characterization of Soybean and Bambara Groundnut Genotypes Grown on Different Soils of Lake Victoria Basin
(Fundamental and Applied Agriculture, 2020-04-29)
Neglect and under-utilization of legumes such as soybeans and bambaragroundnuts are the reason for increased food insufficiency in the Lake Vic toria basin. Diversification of legumes into the cropping systems of LakeVictoria ...
Trace Metal Detection in Aqueous Reservoirs Using Stilbene Intercalated Layered Rare-Earth Hydroxide Tablets
(Hindawi, 2020-03-30)
Contamination of aquatic reservoirs with metal ions is a slow gradual process that is not easy to detect. Consequences of the metal ions, especially the ones with high atomic numbers (heavy metals) at high concentrations, ...
Layered Rare-Earth Hydroxide Unilameller Nanosheets: Synthesis, Characterization, and Adsorption
(Hindawi, 2020-01-28)
Unilameller nanosheets with a lateral dimension of one nanometer have been isolated from a colloidal solution of europium-containing layered rare-earth hydroxide (LRH) material by the flocculation method. The nanosheets ...
On Centre Properties of Irreducible Subalgebras of Compact Elementary Operators
(doi:10.30538/psrp-oma2020.0065, 2020)
In this paper, we characterize the centre of dense irreducible subalgebras of compact elementary operators that are spectrally bounded. We show that the centre is a unital, irreducible and commutative C∗ -subalgebra. ...
Sensitivity Analyses of Population Projection Matrix of Cestrum Aurantiacum
(Kenya Forestry Research Institute/Jaramogi Oginga Odinga University of science and Technology., 2020)
The Lefkovitch stage specific matrix population models are divided into discrete stage classes defined by a growth variable such as size, height and diameter at breast height for trees. In matrix model, the deterministic ...
Extensions of Lefkovitch Matrix for Modeling Invasive Cestrum Aurantiacum Population Dynamics
(KEFRI/, Jaramogi Oginga Odinga University of science and Technology., 2020)
Modeling of invasive species using stage based matrix methods can be exploited to understand population dynamics of plants using stage based Leftkovitch matrix models. This study reviewed and extended the stage based matrix ...
