THE EFFECTS OF AMENDED MOLASSES WASTEWATER ON THE GROWTH PROGRESS, NUTRITION AND YIELD OF Capsicuum annuum ON ACIDIC SOILS OF KENYA
(University of Eldoret, 2015)
Little research work has been done especially on increasing effects of soil acidity on crop production due to long periods of chemical fertilizer use in North Rift region especially Uasin Gishu and Nandi Counties. Moreover, ...
EFFECTS OF PRICES BEFORE AND AFTER TAX, AND INCOME PER CAPITA ON TOBACCO CONSUMPTION IN KENYA: COINTEGRATION APPROACH
(University of Eldoret, 2021)
Smoking of cigarette is regarded as one of the most cause of deaths among other factors
in the world. It is also a causative agent of the various cancerous diseases. It is by fact
though preventable, the major cause ...
SOLID-STATE THERMAL DESOLVATION AND STRUCTURAL STUDIES OF OXALIC ACID DIHYDRATE, ZINC ACETATE DIHYDRATE, COPPER (II) SULFATE PENTAHYDRATE AND NICKEL (II) SULFATE HEXAHYDRATE
(University of Eldoret, 2013)
For many years it has been widely accepted that crystal dehydration can be related to internal crystal structure. However, there is very little empirical data or experiments on this work. This work makes an attempt to use ...
EFFECTS OF COULOMB AND PAIRING INTERACTIONS BETWEEN NUCLEONS IN DETERMINING NUCLEAR STABILITY OF FINITE NUCLEI
(University of Eldoret, 2021)
From time to time, several nuclear models have been proposed by various research
groups to explain the properties of finite nuclei and large nuclear systems in nuclear
physics and astrophysics. However, no single model ...
FABRICATION AND CALIBRATION OF LOW COST CAPACITIVE SOIL HUMIDITY SENSOR
(University of Eldoret, 2013)
Soil humidity is critical in crop production and its control is essential to water
conservation. The knowledge of soil humidity to majority of farmers in Kenya is based on
effects of weather on crops and soil texture. ...
FINITE DIFFERENCE SCHEMES ARISING FROM OPERATOR SPLITTING FOR SOLVING TWO DIMENSIONAL SYSTEM OF BURGERS’ EQUATION
(University of Eldoret, 2016)
Solving Burgers equation continues to be a challenging problem. Burgers‟ equation is a fundamental partial differential equation from fluid mechanics. It occurs in various areas of applied mathematics, such as modeling of ...
BIOACTIVITY OF CRUDE ESSENTIAL OILS AND BLENDS OF Artemisia afra, Ocimum kilimandscharicum AND Tagetes minuta AGAINST Anopheles gambiae S.S.
(University of Eldoret, 2021)
Malaria causes heavy morbidity and high mortality in most parts of the world.
Synthetic insecticides mostly employed to control the mosquito vector have
detrimental effects to the environment, necessitating the search ...
THE ACOUSTIC WAVE PROPAGATION EQUATION: THE DISCONTINUOUS GALERKIN TIME DOMAIN SOLUTION APPROACH
(University of Eldoret, 2019)
This thesis presents a finite element method, discontinuous Galerkin time domain approach that solves the 2-D acoustic wave equation in cylindrical coordinates. The method is based on discretization of the wave field into ...
ISOLATION AND CHARACTERIZATION OF NEW COMPOUNDS FROM Strychnos henningsii AND THEIR ANTI-MALARIAL ACTIVITIES
(University of Eldoret, 2013)
Traditional medicines play an important role in the management of common fever associated with malarial symptoms, particularly in the rural Africa. However, their potential use as sources of medicines has not been fully ...
