Technology Options for the Built Environment in Kenya: Dye- Sensitized and Amorphous Silicon Photovoltaics for Application in NZE Buildings
(Bentham Science Publishers Ltd., 2017)
Background The performance of a Dye-Sensitized Solar Module (DSSM) has been investigated under different outdoor air mass (AM), irradiance intensity and temperature conditions in Wajir, Kitui, Vihiga and Kajiado Counties ...
Quiet Time Correlation Between Geomagnetic Field Variations and the Dynamics of the East African Equatorial Ionosphere
(Science Publishing Group, 2017)
The equatorial ionosphere is highly dynamic and consequently poses serious threats to communication and
navigation systems. As a result, proper understanding of ionospheric dynamics is important. The present paper presents ...
An investigation of MHD Flows of Nanofluid over an oscillating surface with Joule Heating
(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 ...
Improved efficiency of organic solar cells using Au NPs incorporated into PEDOT: PSS buffer layer
(AIP Publishing LLC, 2017)
Au based plasmonic phenomenon inside the hole transport layer poly(3,4-
ethylenedioxythiophene)-poly(styrenesulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) of an organic solar
cell based on blend of poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) and [6:6]-phen ...
Quadrature fluctuation energy, effective Hamiltonians, quasi-particle modes and quantum phase transitions in the Rabi and Dicke models
(Research gate, 2017)
The main purpose of this article is to provide a simple physically motivated exact analytical procedure
for determining effective Rabi and Dicke Hamiltonians, which have so far posed serious challenges in
studies of ...
Similarity Transformation Analysis of Heat and Mass Transfer Effects on Steady Buoyancy Induced MHD Free Convection Flow Past an Inclined Surface
(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 ...
General analytical solution for the one dimensional regular Cauchy problem of Euler-Poisson-Darboux equation
(Hikari Ltd, 2017)
A general analytical solution to the one dimensional regular Cauchy
problem of Euler-Poisson-Darboux (EPD) equation has been investigated. The one dimensional EPD which is a Partial Differential Equation (PDE) with initial ...
Structural and spectroscopic analysis of ex-situ annealed RF sputtered aluminium doped zinc oxide thin films
(AIP Publishing LLC, 2017)
Aluminium doped zinc oxide thin films are prepared by Radio Frequency magnetron sputtering in
pure argon atmosphere at 100 W. The structural results reveal good film adhesion on a silicon
substrate (001). The thin films ...
Near-Exact Non-relativistic Energies for Many-Electron Atoms
(2017-12)
Electron-electron interactions and correlations form the basis of difficulties encountered in the
theoretical solution of problems dealing with multi-electron systems. Accurate treatment of the
electron-electron problem ...
Perceived Impact of the Youth Enterprise Development Fund on the Youth Towards the Establishment of Small Scale Rural Enterprises in Turbo Division, Uasin-gishu County, Kenya
(Universitas Sulawesi Barat, 2017)
The inception of the Youth Enterprise Development Fund has seen the rise of youth groups in rural
areas. This paper is thus aimed at understanding the impact of the fund towards the youth establishment
of small scale ...
