Simulation of catchment hydrologic response under changing land use: case of upper Molo river catchment, Kenya
(2014)
The urban and agricultural developments have led to changes in catchment hydrologic response. To clearly understand the effect of land use change on catchment hydrologic response, a study was carried out in the Upper Molo ...
Mixed galerkin inite element solution of the homogenous burgers equation
(International journal of engineering & scientific research, 2015)
Nonlinear partial differential equations arise in a large number of mathematical and engineering problems. Systems of nonlinear partial
differential equations have attracted much attention in studying solid state physics, ...
Hydrological drought frequency estimation using stream flow drought index and modified gumbel method in upper Tana river basin
(Radiance Research Academy, 2015-11-15)
Objective: To estimate the hydrological drought frequency for upper Tana River basin in Kenya using absolute Stream flow
Drought Index (SDI) and modified Gumbel technique. The frequency of drought event of a defined ...
Norms, attitudes and gender perspectives in ecological sanitation
(Loughborough University, 2009)
In Kenya, the urban poor are residing in the Peri urban areas of Nakuru Municipality with inadequate
sanitation facilities. This study investigated attitudes towards urine diverting toilets to popularize their
use as ...
Characterization of greywater from urban and peri-urban areas of Nakuru municipality, Kenya
(Loughborough University, 2009)
Kenya faces serious challenges regarding water and sanitation services. Despite many years of
government investment, existing facilities continue to deteriorate and have also failed to meet the demand
of increasing ...
Predictings sediment loading into Masinga reservoir and its storage capacity reduction
(2005-09-07)
It is estimated that the annual loss in storage capacity of the world’s
reservoirs due to sedimentation is around 0.5 – 1.0%. For many reservoirs,
however, annual depletion rates are much higher and can go up to 4% or ...
On unconditional banach space ideal property
(Instytut matematyczny polskiej akademi nauk, 2015-03-18)
We show that a Banach space with separable dual can be renormed to satisfy hereditarily an "almost" optimal uniform smoothness condition. The optimal condition occurs when the canonical decomposition X∗∗∗=X⊥⊕X∗ is ...
Generation for measurable covers for measurable sets using multiple integral of functions
(Science sign post publishing, 2015)
The point-objective problem and the Weber problem are two well-known formulations for locating a new facility with respect to a set of fixed facilities. When locations are represented as points on a plane, the point-objective ...
Wavelet sets in ℝ n
(Council for innovative research, 2015-06-18)
A congruency theorem is proven for an ordered pair of groups of homeomorphisms of a metric space satisfying an abstract dilation-translation relationship. A corollary is the existence of wavelet sets, and hence of ...
Finite difference solution othird order viscous wave equation
(International journal of engineering, science and mathematics, 2014)
A new numerical method for Nwogu’s (ASCE Journal of Waterway, Port, Coastal and Ocean En-gineering1993;119:618) two-dimensional extended Boussinesq equations is presented using a lineartriangular nite element spatial ...
