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, ... -
Opportunities and challenges for smart grid communications
(2010)The current power grid is in the verge of being improved. Recent technological advances have made possible the creation of a new and improved grid known as the smart grid. Smart grid allows for better interaction between ... -
Optimal Battery Location for Minimizing the Total Cost of Generation in a Power System
(2020)Wind is one of the major and fast growing source of green energy in the world. However, it’s naturally variable and this reduces its percentage penetration in a power system because of costs associated with balancing ... -
Optimal Placement of FACTS devices using voltage Stability Indices
(2016)Power System Voltage stability remains a major challenge for power utilities across the world. This research uses static load flow methods namely the voltage stability indices to come up with an optimal placement of FACTS ... -
Optimal Sizing and Placement of Solar Photovoltaic based DGs in the IEEE 9 bus system using Particle Swarm Optimization Algorithm
(2018)Solar energy is one of the most commonly exploited renewable resource globally. Integration of power from solar to the main grid can either bring positive or negative impact which normally depends on their size and location. ... -
