Voltage stability analysis using CP_ANN and optimized capacitor bank placement
(2010)
Voltage Stability refers to the ability of power system to maintain steady voltage at all buses in the system after being subjected to a disturbance from a given initial operating condition. In this paper, the IEEE 30-bus ...
Shore to ship power for Mombasa port possibilities and challenges
(2016)
Control of air pollution from docked ships is one challenge that ports encounter in their effort to reduce operational environmental impact. Ship-to-shore power has been identified as one technology to reduce emissions by ...
Profit based unit commitment using evolutionary particle swarm optimization
(2015)
The profit based unit commitment (PBUC) problem determines an optimal unit commitment schedule for a generation company (GENCO) participating in a deregulated environment
with the aim of maximizing its profit. This is ...
Designing of new proposed technique for lie Detection using EEG Signals
(2011-03)
The proposed system is designed to make EEG database of criminals during the investigation by crime branch. System will be detecting the criminals on the bases of thought related to crime to be stored in brain, when the ...
TRANSFORMING SMALLHOLDER AGRICULTURE IN AFRICA: THE ROLE OF POLICY AND GOVERNANCE
(2016-09)
Agriculture is a key driver for pro-poor economic growth in Kenya and supports over 80% of rural households (Amwata et al., 2015). Challenges in the agriculture sector (RoK, 2010; 2012; Nyariki et al., 2005): Limited ...
Suitability of aggregation methods of induction motor models for transient stability load modeling of Kenya power transmission and distribution system
(2010)
Current trend indicate that there has been increase on power outage frequency. This has partly been as a result of unstable power system with very small security margin of operation. Therefore, this paper focusses on the ...
E-Voting Challenges in Kenya
(2016-06)
Many developing countries have had disastrous presidential elections in recent years. In most of these cases, it was alleged that manual voting and vote-tallying took too long to produce the winning candidate, leading to ...
The dependency of bus voltage and frequency in load shedding
(2013)
Load shedding schemes proposed in literature so far use voltage and frequency parameters separately. The individual consideration of these indices may not be reliable or effective, and may even lead to the over load shedding ...
Short term voltage stability analysis of an aggregated industrial load
(2010)
Environmental constraints have limited expansion of transmission line networks. And with
Power systems being operated close to their security limits, the likelihood of voltage collapses
Occurring has increased [1]. In ...
