Knowledge, attitudes, practices and prevention of malaria: a statistical perspective of Kabras north division, Kakamega county, Kenya
(Maseno University, 2017)An elaborate understanding of the Knowledge, Attitudes and Practices (KAP) of particular community can inform the design of Behaviour Change Communication (BCC) campaigns to influence acceptance and use of Malaria control ... -
Match Analysis of HIV/AIDS Model With Reference to Kenya
(Maseno University, 2011)Epidemiology models are used to combine complex data from various sources in order to study equally complex outcomes. The first simple HIV/AIDS epidemic model was by Anderson in 1986. Since then a lot has been done in ... -
Mathematical model for non-linear stock price adjustment
(Maseno university, 2010)The field of financial mathematics has drawn a lot of interest from both practitioners and academicians since the derivation of Black- Scholes model of 1970s. :Ihe celebrated option pricing formula, the so-called Black- ... -
A mathematical model for the optimal control Of trypanosomiasis in a cattle population
(Maseno University, 2015)Trypanosomiasis is a debilitating disease which is a major constraint to livestock production in sub-Saharan Africa. It leads to loss of productivity in animals and without treatment it is frequently fatal. The economic ... -
Mathematical Model Incorporating Screening of Immigrants as A Control Against The Spread of Ebola
(Maseno University, 2017)Ebola Disease Outbreak (EVD) is an acute and often fatal disease in humans and nonhuman primates (monkeys, gorillas and chimpanzees). The disease is caused by infection with a virus of the family of Filoviridae, genus ... -

Mathematical Model to Determine the Concentration of Fly-Ash at Sony Sugar Company in Kenya
(Maseno University, 2015)Mathematical modeling continues to attract attention of applied math- ematicians, physicists, engineers, biologists, research institutions and oth- ers. This study focuses on air pollution concentration: a case study ... -
Mathematical modeling of Dual protection and art Adherence for a high risk HIV Population
(Maseno University, 2023)The spread of HIV/AIDS remains a major concern to public health enthusiasts world over. In spite of interventions such as medical male circumcision, condom use, treatment using Antiretroviral Therapy (ART), as well as ... -
Mathematical modeling of HIV/aids co-infection With tuberculosis and pneumonia incorporating protection
(Maseno University, 2016)The synergistic relationship between HIV/AIDS and respiratory infections, such as tu- berculosis(TB) and pneumonia not only results in high mortality rates but is also a source of economic burden borne by many nations ... -
Mathematical modelling of flood Wave: a case study of Budalang'i Flood plain basin in Busia county, Kenya
(Maseno university, 2022)Flooding is a worldwide problem with more adverse e ects in developing countries. In Kenya, severe ooding is experienced on the lower tributaries of Lake Victoria, mainly Budalang'i area. This is indicated in the ... -
Mathematics of Pesticide Adsorption in a Porous Medium: Convective-Dispersive Transport with steady state water flow In two Dimension
(Maseno university, 2007)The transport of solutes through porous media where chemicals undergo adsorption or change process on the surface of the porous materials has been a subject of research over years. Usage of pesticides has resulted in ... -
Modeling the effects of interference in fertility rate: a case study of Rwanda, Indonesia and Kenya
(Maseno University, 2016)Many studies have been done on fertility for many years. However, very little has been documented in the existing literature concerning modeling of fertility in the presence of interference, yet interference to fertility ... -
Multilevel Analysis Applied to Binary Data: Malaria Prevalence in Sauri Millenium Village, Kenya
(Maseno University, 2014)Millennium Villages Project is an initiative that is meant to demonstrate that the millennium development goals could be achieved in an integrated approach in putting a combination of interventions in place. Among these ... -
Non-parametric regression estimation of a finite Population total in the presence of Heteroscedasticity
(Maseno university, 2010)Non parametric regression provides computationally intensive estimation.of unknown finite population quantities. Such estimation is usually more flexible and robust than inferences tied to design - probabilities (in ... -
