Adjusting Academic Library Services to Covid 19 Prevention Protocols
(2021-11)The Covid 19 pandemic has presented challenges in the provision of library services in academic libraries. The pandemic has affected the mode of library operations and therefore librarians had to shift to virtual library ... -
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 ... -
An Assessment of Optimal Allocation of FACTS Devices in Power Systems Using Metaheuristics
(2021-11)The increasing power demand, the optimal use of grids, the need for economic efficiency, and the high costs associated with building new grids have created unavoidable challenges such as power line overload and excessive ... -
An Audit of ICT Funding on Effective Integration of ICT’s In Selected TVET Institution in Kiambu and Murang’a County, Kenya
(2016)Developing countries like Kenya has begun to realize the significant role TVET has to play in the development of a competitive workforce and an equally discouraging realization has arose that governments can no longer be ... -
A Blood Pressure Monitoring Prototype for Preeclampsia Management in Antenatal Care in Kenya
(2018-10-25)The health of women is a critical public health concern in public health as it impacts the personal well-being, family reproduction, and societal development. Globally, it has been noted that a significant number of women ... -
Can irrigation be an answer to Kenya’s food security problem?
(2015-10)Irrigation development is one strategy the government can use to improve food security in Kenya. Lessons from irrigated maize production studies show that it is profitable and that Galana Kulalu food security project has ... -

Comparative analysis of SCIG and DFIG based wind generation on transient stability of the Kenyan power system
(2014)Generation of Electrical power from wind is achieved using the two mainly available generator technologies. These technologies are the squirrel cage induction generators (SCIG) and doubly fed induction generators (DFIGs). ... -
A Comparative Study of Dual-slope Path Loss Model in Various Indoor Environments at 14 to 22GHz
(2018-08)Fifth generation wireless communication networks will demand massive bandwidth for high data rates. The millimeter wave frequency bands will play an important role in the 5G wireless networks due to the available huge chunk ... -
Comparison of aggregation methods of induction motor models for transient stability load modeling
(2010)This paper focusses on the comparison of the aggregation methods of multiple induction motors (IM) connected in parallel on the same bus into a single equivalent model using the no-load and locked-rotor and transformer ... -
Continuation load flow with a neuro fuzzy model of an induction motor for voltage stability analysis
(2010)This paper uses the concept of the continuation power flow analysis used in voltage stability Analysis for control the power in large systems. It uses the PV curves to find the knee point of a certain bus. A neuro fuzzy ... -
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 ... -
