Effects of Selected Routine Husbandry Practices on Growth Rate of Weaned Small East African Goats
(2010)
This study was conducted to determine the effects of overnight housing, helminthes control, supplementation and their combinations on average weight gain of weaned Small East African Goats (SEAG) in the semi-arid southeastern ...
Improving soil hydrological properties of denuded semi-arid rangeland in southeastern Kenya using reseeding technology
(2010)
A study was conducted to establish the contribution of Eragrostis superba, Enteropogon macrostachyus and Cenchrus ciliaris in improving soil hydrological properties in semi-arid Kenya. Kamphorst rainfall simulator was used ...
UNDERSTANDING THE TRAVEL MOTIVATION AMONG YOUTH TRAVELERS IN KENYA: THE ‘PUSH’ AND ‘PULL’ PARADIGM
(2010)
This study explores the factors that motivate youth travel in Kenya using the ‘Push’ and ‘Pull’ theory. This questionnaire survey involved 132 respondents aged between 15 and 32 years drawn from visitors to Nairobi National ...
Analysis of a fuzzy logic power system stabilizer for stability enhancement
(2010)
Modern power systems consist of several generators working synchronously to meet the
Power demand. For reliability of these systems, stability must be ensured in case of faults within the system. Faults within a system ...
Effects of processing technique on the nutritional composition and anti-nutrient content of mucuna bean (Mucuna pruriens L.)
(Academic Journals, 2010-04)
Mucuna bean (Mucuna pruriens) is an indigenous legume promoted in Kenya as a green manure cover crop. It contains high protein but it is under - utilized due to the presence of 3, ...
Effects of Fermentation on the Total Carotenoids, Fat, Free Fatty Acids and Minera ls in Soybean and Sweetp otato Flour Blends
(Egerton Journal Of Science And Technology, 2010)
Soybeans and sweetpotatoes are high in micronutrients and convertible carotenoids, respectively. Utilization of micronutrients is hampered by anti-nutritional factors intrinsic to nutrient sources. Carotenoids must first ...
Investigating the impact of power system stabilizers in a multi machine system with an induction motor load
(2010)
The high reactive power demand by the induction motor load during fault condition due to reduced bus voltages may cause a generator to behave like a voltage source behind the synchronous reactance and its terminal voltage ...
Power factory load flow sensitivity analysis of an induction motor load model
(2010)
Power factory Load flow sensitivity is a method used to obtain certain relationship between dependent and independent variables using differential relationship among physical measure in systems. Voltage sensitivity analysis ...
