Harnessing our ICT Skill Set and Research Efforts for Sustainable Development
(2022-06)For some time now, ICTs have become ubiquitous, making them a common place phenomenon in modern society. Almost all electronics are ICT enabled to date, with most people who can read and write having interacted with ICTs ... -
The Impact of Prior Exposure to Engineering Through the MUT Pre-College Course - A Case Study of Kangema Sub-County Secondary Schools
(2021-11)In Kenya, secondary schools have a great role in preparing learners for career progression. In order to realize industrial growth, it is important to prepare more students for careers in STEM. There is relatively little ... -
Implementation of a Structural Complexity Metrics Tool for Sassy Cascading Style Sheets (SCMT-SCSS)
(2020)The development of metrics tool is a basic requirement for the defined software metrics to be acceptable in the software industry. There are several metrics proposed over the years without tool support and this trend cannot ... -
Investigating the Effect of an Ir Emitting Element to the time Constant of Solar Energy Harvesting Device Lifetime
(2021-03)Solar photovoltaic (PV) system is instrumental in provision of sustainable energy in the wake of social and environmental concerns. While research in solar cell efficiency has made great strides and achieved over 40%, key ... -
Investigating the Impact of Antenna Heights on Path Loss Models in an Indoor Corridor Environment
(2020-08)Mobile data traffic has rapidly increased in the last few years because of the continuous demand for higher data rates through a rapidly growing number of connected devices and the advancing technology of smartphones. ... -
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 ... -
Investigation of static voltage stability using a modified load flow algorithm and counter propagative artificial neural networks
(2010)In conventional load flow studies, the active and reactive powers of all load buses are generally specified. Thus, by assuming a constant power load characteristic, the impact of the load in the system is over-emphasized ... -
Key Generation for Electrical Smart Meters using Hash Functions
(2019)The electrical power grid has been undergoing improvements to turn it into a more efficient system known as the Smart Grid. A key element in this upgrade is the Smart Meter. A compromise on the cyber-security of the smart ... -
Key performance indicators for manufacturing safety in paint manufacturing: A case of kenyan industry.
(2015)Manufacturing safety is a key priority in the success of any business, as it can affect both the present and future competitive position of an organization. Organizations must measure ... -
Land access and outmigration in densely populated areas of rural Kenya Land access and outmigration in densely populated areas of rural Kenya
(2021-02)One of the key drivers of youth migration of inequitable distribution of land which denies them access to work environment. Youths hold limited small land sizes even when they migrate and this limits there involvement in ... -
Load flow analysis with a neuro-fuzzy model of an induction motor load
(2009)In the conventional load flow study, the active and reactive powers of all load buses are generally specified. Although the constant power model is applicable for approximate studies, it may not suitable for the motors ... -
Load flow solution using neuro-fuzzy techniques
(2015-06)Load-flow (LF) study is the steady state solution of the power system network under existing or contemplated conditions for normal operation. In this paper, a neuro-fuzzy system is proposed to solve power flow problem under ... -
Modelling of the industrial load of Bamburi cement company for power system studies
(2010)In the recent past, much attention has been given to models for generation and transmission equipment. The representation of the loads has received comparatively less attention and continues to be an area of greater ... -
Motor Speed Control Kits Using a Microcontroller.
(2021-11)The aim of this project is to make a motor laboratory kits for AC motors. It aims on making affordable kits which are made from locally available materials and applying the obtained knowledge from the four-year curriculum ... -
MPPT of a standalone wind energy conversion system using magnetostrictive amorphous wire speed sensor and fuzzy logic
(2014)This paper details the design and implementation of a Fuzzy Logic based controller for Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) of a case study standalone wind energy conversion system(WECS). A magnetostrictive amorphous wire ... -
New approach for design shunt active power filter for power quality improvement in a three phase three wire system
(2020)Use of power electronic-based load has increased in the resent decade. These loads draw non-sinusoidal currents and voltages from the utility supply generating harmful harmonics. Injection of harmonic currents and voltages ... -
A New Complexity Metric for BPEL Processes based on Weighted Structured Activities and Invokes
(2018-05)As is the case with traditional software, business processes created using the Business Process Execution Language (BPEL) have an inherent structural complexity that increases whenever the processes are modified. High ... -
A Novel Hybrid Deep Learning Model for Early Detection of Diabetic Retinopathy
(, 2021)Diabetic retinopathy is one of the most frightening complications of diabetes mellitus affecting the working-age population worldwide leading to irreversible blindness if left untreated. A major challenge is early detection, ...
