(Scientific Research, 2012-12)The objective of this study is to experimentally examine the effects of orbital motion on the boundary layer flow on a spinning disk. The boundary layer flow on the disk is visualized by the oil flow method, and velocity ...
-
(Scientific Research, 2012-12)The present study focuses on numerical simulation of the gas-solid suspension flow in a supersonic nozzle. The Euler- Lagrange approach using a Discrete Phase Model (DPM) has been used to solve the compressible Navier-Stokes ...
-
(Scientific Research, 2012-09)Different signal processing technique performances are compared to each other with regard to separating the mean and fluctuating velocity components of a simulated one-dimensional unsteady velocity signal comparable to ...
-
(Scientific Research, 2012-06)In many applications, a moving fluid carries a suspension of droplets of a second phase which may change in size due to evaporation or condensation. Examples include liquid fuel drops in engines and raindrops or ice-crystals ...

Mazumder Effect of Liquid and Gas Velocities on Magnitude and Location of Maximum Erosion in U-Bend (Scientific Research, 2012-06)Solid particle erosion is a micromechanical process that is influenced by flow geometry, material of the impacting surface, impact angle, particle size and shape, particle velocity, flow condition and fluid properties. ...
-
(Scientific Research, 2013-06)The objective of this work is to study experimentally the characteristics of jet pump. Suction head, driving air pressure and the percentage of the distance between throat section and nozzle are recorded. The effect of ...
-
(Scientific Research, 2013-06)Transport of particle suspensions in oil reservoirs is an essential phenomenon in many oil industry processes. Solid and liquid particles dispersed in the drilling fluid (mud) are trapped by the rock (porous medium) and ...
-
(published online, 2014-01)Seven isolates of entomopathogenic fungi, Isaria fumosorosea (IFCF-H and IFCF-L), Beauveria bassiana s.l. (Bb02 and Bb04) and Metarhizium anisopliae s.l. (Ma01, SM076 and M09), were selected for their pathogenicity against ...
-
(published online, 2012-10)In this research, we isolated the pathogenic strain, KB512, of entomopathogenic fungi Beauveria bassiana from soil and insects, which produced aerial and submerged conidia and blastospores in the laboratory conditions. ...
-
(University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa, 2003-01)Biological control refers to the application or manipulation of preda- tors, parasitoids, or pathogens in order to suppress and manage insect populations. The cryptic habits of subterranean termites limit their susceptibility ...
-
(Scientific research, 2010-07)Two simple voltage-controlled-oscillators(VCO) with linear tuning laws employing only a single current feedback operational amplifier (CFOA) in conjunction with two analog multipliers(AM) have been highlighted. The ...
-
(Scientific Research, 2010-07)This paper deals with the design of an intelligent access control system based on the fingerprint sensor FPC-1011C. The design uses the S3C2410 and TMS320VC5510A as the system processor. A fingerprint acquisi-tion module ...
-
(Published online in Wiley InterScience (www.interscience.wiley.com), 2006-04)To evaluate the accuracy of routine malaria microscopy, and appropriate use andinterpretation of malaria slides under operational conditions in Kenya.methods Cross-sectional survey, using a range of quality of care assessment ...
-
(Published online in Wiley InterScience (www.interscience.wiley.com), 2017-09)objectiveTo examine the levels, inequalities and factors associated with health insurance coveragein Kenya.methodsWe analysed secondary data from the Kenya Demographic and Health Survey (KDHS)conducted in 2009 and 2014. ...
-
(Published online in Wiley InterScience (www.interscience.wiley.com), 2008-05)This paper presents the experiences on capacity development for irrigation in Kenya, drawing from a study of sevensmallholder irrigation schemes, namely: New Mutaro, Emening, Mitunguu, Ng’uuru Gakirwe, Lari, Mukuria-Kyambogo ...
-
(University of Fribourg, Department of Social Sciences, Switzerland, 2016-05)With social security provisions in Kenya remainingunder-reported in the more recent literature, this overviewcovers recent reforms in key areas of the country’ s social secu-rity system. In the health sector and in old-age ...
-
(University of Nairobi, 2018-04)A two-dose oral monovalent rotavirus vaccine (RV1) was introduced into the KenyanNational Immunization Program in July 2014. We assessed trends in hospitalisation for rotavirus-specific acute gastroenteritis (AGE) and strain ...
