Ab initio study of the structural, vibrational and thermal properties of Ge2Sb2Te5

Henry Odhiambo, Herick Othieno (International Journal of Computational Materials Science, 2015-05-12)

The structural, vibrational and thermal properties of hexagonal as well as cubic Ge2Sb2Te5 (GST) have been calculated from first principles. The relative stability of the possible stacking sequences of hexagonal GST has ...
A numerical thermal growth model for prediction of microalgae production in photobioreactors

Yuan, Shuo; Zhou, Xinping; Ochieng, Reccab M; Zhou, Xiangdong (AIP Publishing, 2016-03)

A thermal growth model for microalgae that are not heavier than water with the consideration of heat transfer and growth-temperature dependence in photobioreactor (PBR) is developed. The microalgae growth performance is ...
HYDRODYNAMIC ANALYSIS OF A FIXED INCLINE SLIDER BEARING

LIMO, JOSHUA K (2016-05-23)

In the present day technological scenario, machines rotating at high speeds and carrying heavy rotor loads are used. As a result, fixed incline slider bearings are used. They are designed for high axial loads. When a bearing ...
Numerical Solution of Non-Linear Boundary Value Problems of Ordinary Differential Equations Using the Shooting Technique

Manyonge, A.W; Opiyo, R; Kweyu, D; Maremwa, J.S (2017)

Ordinary Di erential Equations (ODEs) of the Initial Value Problem (IVP) or Boundary Value Problem (BVP) type can model phenomena in wide range of elds including science, engineering, economics, social science, biology, ...
On the Solution of n-Dimensional Regular Cauchy Problem of Euler-Poisson-Darboux Equation (EPD)

Manyonge, A.W; Kweyu, David (2017)

A general exact solution to the n-dimensional regular Cauchy prob- lem of Euler-Poisson-Darboux (EPD) equation has been studied. Firstly, the general exact solution for the one dimensional regular Cauchy prob- lem of ...
An investigation of MHD Flows of Nanofluid over an oscillating surface with Joule Heating

Manyonge, A.W; Nyamai, B.M; Bitok, J.K; Kandie, J.K (International Scientific Press, 2017)

The present study aims at investigating unsteady hydromagnetic flow of viscous incompressible, conducting nanofluid over an infinite oscillating surface with Joule heating. The governing equations involved are transformed ...
Similarity Transformation Analysis of Heat and Mass Transfer Effects on Steady Buoyancy Induced MHD Free Convection Flow Past an Inclined Surface

Manyonge, Alfred W; Otieno, Opiyo R; Bitok, Jacob K (2017)

The present work is devoted to the problem of a steady two di- mensional hydromagnetic convective ow of a viscous, incompressible electrically conducting uid past an inclined semi-in nite plate in the presence of ...
Numerical Computation of Steady Buoyancy Driven MHD Heat and Mass Transfer Past An Inclined Infinite Flat Plate with Sinusoidal Surface Boundary Conditions

Manyonge, Alfred W; Otieno, Opiyo R; Bitok, Jacob K (2007)

In this paper we study the e ects of magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) uid ow on a two dimensional boundary layer ow of a steady free convection heat and mass transfer on an inclined plate in which the angle of inclination ...
Ab Initio study of the electronic and optical properties of hexagonal and cubic Ge2Sb2Te5

Odhiambo, Henry O (African Review of Physics, 2015-04)

The electronic and optical properties of hexagonal and cubic Ge 2 Sb 2 Te 5 have been calculated using the QUANTUM ESPRESSO and Yambo codes. The study has considered the variation of electronic band gaps with lattice ...
