On the steady MHD couette flow between two infinite parallel plates in an uniform transverse magnetic field
(2015)In this paper we consider laminar viscous incompressible fluid between two infinite parallel plates when the upper plate is moving with constant velocity Uo and the lower plate is held stationary under the influence of ... -
On the Theory of Random Search
(University of Nairobi,, 1994)The problem of identifying one or more unknown elements belonging to a finite set So' containing n distinguishable elements is well known in literature. Designs used in this kind of investigation are known as search designs. ... -
On the Zero Divisor Graphs of Finite Rings in Which the Product of Any Two Zero Divisors Lies in the Coefficient Subring
(Journal of Mathematics and Statistical Science, 2016)Let r be a positive integer and 2 ≤ ∈k . Let ( ) kr k GR p p, be a Galois ring of order kr p and characteristic k p . Consider, ( ) kr k R GR p p U = ,⊕ where U is a finitely generated ( ) kr k GR p p, module. If Z R( ... -

(EasyChair, 2022)The COVID-19 pandemic resulted in an increasing demand for online learning and led to the demand for the offer of online assessment at Maseno university. Prior to the COVID19 pandemic the institution had put in place measures ... -
OPEN EDUCATIONAL RESOURCES FOR STATISTICS TEACHING
(ISI/IASE, 2017)A series of papers at this conference have built on the African Data Initiative (ADI) which was started to improve statistical literacy and understanding. One immediate deliverables of this initiative has been new ... -
Open educational resources, technology-enabled teacher learning and social justice
(Routledge, 2021)This chapter addresses two questions: What is the role of teacher education in increasing access to, and participation in, education, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa? and How can digital technologies (DTs), such as the ... -
Open Source ERP Adoption-Use and Organisational Performance of Deposit-Taking Saccos in Kenya
(International Journal of Information Technology, 2019)The cost and benefits of an ERP system are arguably the reason why Deposit-Taking SACCOs are opting for adoption-use of open source ERP in an effort to achieve organisation performance. Technology adoption is only important ... -

Operation of mutation on Polar quivers
(Maseno university, 2009)In recent times, there has been a lot of interest in the study of quivers, both by mathematicians and theoretical physicists. We introduce a new concept of polar quivers and their mutation. The idea of polar quivers arises ... -
Operators with slowly growing resolvents towards the spectrum
(International Journal of Pure and Applied Mathematics, 2009-03)A closed densely defined operator H, on a Banach space X, whose spectrum is contained in R and satisfies -
Opportunities and challenges for mixed day secondary school headteachers in promoting girl-child education in Kenya: A case study of Kisumu municipality
(Academic Journals, 2010-12-01)Despite Kenya Government's commitment to enhancement of girl-child education, their participation rate at secondary school level is still notably low. Many studies on the girl- child education have concentrated in the ... -
Opportunities and Peer Support for Aggression and Delinquency During Adolescence in Nine Countries
(New directions for child and adolescent development, 2020)This study tested culture-general and culture-specific aspects of adolescent developmental processes by focusing on opportunities and peer support for aggressive and delinquent behavior, which could help account for cultural ... -
Opportunities from Satellite Observation Systems in Climate Risk Mitigation: The Case of Tourism and Hospitality Industry in Lake Nakuru National Park, Kenya
(ijsr, 2012)One of the key findings in the Fourth Assessment Report (AR4) is that millions of people globally will be exposed to increased water stress due to climate change. With over three quarters of Africa falling under arid and ... -
