    • Temperature Distribution for Magnetohydrodynamic Flow in Straight Horizontal Elliptical Pipe 

      David Kweyu, J Bitok, W Manyonge (Applied Mathematical Sciences, 2021)
      A study has been carried out on temperature distribution on Magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) fluid flow in a pipe of elliptical cross section. Fluid is electrically conducting, viscous and incompressible. Governing equations are ...

    • Three Dimensional Mathematical Models for ConvectiveDispersive Flow of Pesticides in Porous Media 

      Seth H. W. Adams, Alfred Manyonge (IJESC, 2018)
      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 ...

    • Training of lecturers at Maseno University, Kenya 

      James Musyoka, Joyce Otieno, David Stern (Proceedings of the ICOTS8 conference, 2010)
      Lecturers in Kenyan universities usually start their work without any prior training on how to teach students. Hence the teaching tends to be traditional and new training techniques are rarely implemented. For effective ...

    • Using e-learning to engage Mathematics and Statistics Students in a Kenyan University 

      JK Musyoka, D Stern, J Otieno (12th International Congress on Mathematical Education, 2012)
      Two introductory courses to statistics were taught to first year mathematics and statistics students as part of an initiative to introduce them to computers. The courses were offered using a blended approach which included ...

    • Various notions of orthogonality in normed spaces 

      NB Okelo, JO Agure, PO Oleche (Elsevier, 2013-09-01)
      In this paper, we present various notions and aspects of orthogonality in normed spaces. Characterizations and generalizations of orthogonality are also considered. Results on orthogonality of the range and the kernel of ...

    • Velocity Profile for Magnetohydrodynamic Flow in Straight Horizontal Elliptical Pipe 

      David Kweyu, A. Wanyama Manyonge,K. Jacob Bitok (Applied Mathematical Sciences, 2021)
      Velocity profile for Magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) fluid flow in a straight long pipe with elliptical cross section has been investigated. Governing equations are partial differential equations comprising Ohm’s law of ...

    • Weighted Composition Groups on the Little Bloch Space 

      SB Mose, JO Bonyo (Hindawi, 2020-04-29)
      We determine both the semigroup and spectral properties of a group of weighted composition operators on the little Bloch space. It turns out that these are strongly continuous groups of invertible isometries on the Bloch ...

    • Zero Inflated Poisson Mixture Distributions 

      Cynthia L Anyango, Edgar Otumba, John M Kihoro (Applied Mathematical Sciences, 2017)
      This paper presents a method of constructing the Zero inflated Poisson continuous mixture distributions which have applications in various fields. The distributions can be formed by either direct integration or integration ...
