The study focuses on statistical analysis of causes of crimes in Mathare slums, Nairobi county using data collected via questionnaires in April 2018.The Correlation analysis was carried out to explain the ...
Need to make people believe science-science is reliable and means truth
(Open Journal of Social Science,, 2019)
Science is the engine that drives the wheel of development. Consequently, there is a need for people to have faith in science and believe its facts and truths. This paper has looked into ...
The Acoustic Wave Propagation Equation: Discontinuous Galerkin Time Domain Solution Approach
(Applied Mathematical Sciences Vol. 13, 2019, no. 16, 753 - 767, 2019)
This paper discusses a finite element method, discontinuous Galerkintime domain approach that solves the 2-D acoustic wave equation incylindrical coordinates. The method is based on discretization of thewave ...
Prevalence of Enterobacteriaceae Isolated from Childhood Diarrhoea in Mukuru Slums, Nairobi - Kenya
(Journal of Advances in Microbiology, 2019)
Diarrhoea in young children continues to be a major public health concern in developing countries, including Kenya. Poor sanitation among other factors can predispose a child to diarrhoea. Therefore, the present study ...
Construction of a Five-Level V-Dimensional Modified Third Order Rotatable Designs using a Pair of Pairwise Balanced Designs
(African Journal of Education, Science and Technology, 2019)
Rotatable designs are devised for use of response surfaces. Rotatability is evidently a greatly popular property for Response Surface Methodology (RSM). RSM is a group of statistical and mathematical ...

(Journal of Medicinal Plants Studies, 2019)
Medicinal plants have great potential for providing novel drug leads with novel mechanism of action. The present study aimed at determining the antimicrobial activityand phytochemical profile of methanol and ...
Hardness characterization parameters of Niobium Carbide and Niobium Nitride: A first principles study
(Elsevier, 2019)
Niobium carbides and nitrides have been proposed as potential candidates for hardness and related applications,
however, comprehensive studies are still needed for better understanding that may pave way for their ...
Correlation between Nucleon-Nucleon Interaction, Pairing Energy Gap and Phase Shift for Identical Nucleons in Nuclear Systems
(Journal of High Energy Physics, Gravitation and Cosmology, 2019)
Assuming some known nucleon-nucleon interactions, and using the relations between phase shift δ and nucleon-nucleon interaction potential()Vr; the relation between nucleon-nucleon interaction and scattering length ...
Impact of Temperature and Relative Humidity on PMD in Directly Buried Optical Fiber Cables in Semi-Arid and Tropical Highlands in Kenya
(Hindawi International Journal of Optics, 2019)
The telecommunication industry has implemented fibre deployment guidelines that reliably safeguard cable health during installation in the field. While installed fibre cables remain buried in the field, temperature and ...
On the Norm of Basic Elementary Operator in a Tensor Product
(International Journal of Scientific and Innovative Mathematical Research., 2019)
In this paper, we determine the norm of an elementary operator in a tensor product. More precisely, we investigate the bounds of the norm of a basic elementary operator in a tensor product. We employ the techniques of ...
