Characterization of composite material from the copolymerized polyphenolic matrix with treated cassava peels starch
(Heliyon, 2020-07)
Conventional binders in the particleboards formulation involve use of formaldehyde resins. Epidemiologic studies
show that formaldehyde is carcinogenic. Efforts to reduce formaldehyde emissions by use of scavengers has ...
In Vitro Control ofPhytophthora infestans and Alternaria solani Using Crude Extracts and Essential Oils from Selected Plants
(Hindawi, 2020-07)
Tomato production is constrained by fungal diseases especially the early and late blight caused by Alternaria solani and Phytophthora infestans, respectively. Control of the two diseases is usually by use of synthetic ...
Crop residues used as lignocellulose materials for particleboards formulation
(Heliyon, 2020-09)
Efforts to reduce pressure on use of wood in particleboard formulation have included the use of non-wood materials such as crop residues. Physical and mechanical properties are determined by the number of the hydroxyl
(-OH) ...
Teaching secondary school agriculture at the psychomotor domain: a conceptual framework for enhanced skills development for food security
(Routledge, 2020-09)
Purpose: To develop a conceptual framework that can be employed
in secondary school agriculture classes on skills development for
food security.
Design/Methodology/Approach: The conceptual framework was
developed from ...
Political Environment and Implementation of Public Private Partnership Infrastructure Development in Kenya
(European Scientific Journal, 2019-07)
Public Private Partnership (PPP) is a long term agreement between the
public and private sector where risks and rewards are shared in developing a
public facility. Private sector play a monumental role in bridging ...
A Deterministic Model Of HIV Transmission Between Two Closed Patches Incorporating The Monod Equation
(IISTE, 2019-11-06)
Among other factors, migration has significantly contributed to the spread of HIV. Recent studies have revealed
that new infections occur along major transport corridors and truck-drivers have overall higher prevalence ...
Terrorrism and Conditions for Human Rights in Counter-Terrorism in Sub-Saharan Africa
(2020-12)
This doctoral dissertation explores the conditions or set of conditions necessary and
or sufficient to facilitate or impede human rights when governments respond to
terrorism in sub-Saharan Africa.

Three-dimensional dislocations in a uniform linear array's isotropic sensors-Direction finding's hybrid Cramér-Rao bound
(Acoustical Society of America, 2020-05)
The linear array’sone-dimensional spatial geometry is simple but suffices forunivariate direction finding, i.e., isadequate for the estimation of an incident source’s direction-of-arrival relative to the linear ...
Rules-of-thumb to design a uniform spherical array for direction finding—Its Cramér– Rao bounds' nonlinear dependence on the number of sensors
(Acoustical Society of America, 2019-02)
ABSTRACT
This paper discovers rules-of-thumb on how the estimation precision for an incident source's azimuth-polar direction-of-arrival (ϕ,θ) depends on the number (L) of identical isotropic sensors spaced uniformly on ...
Decomposition of Riemannian Curvature Tensor Field and Its Properties
(Science Domain, 2018-11-22)
Decomposition of recurrent curvature tensor fields of R-th order in Finsler manifolds has been studied by B. B. Sinha and G. Singh [1] in the publications del’ institute mathematique, nouvelleserie, tome 33 (47), 1983 pg ...
