(Kenyatta University, 2020-07) -
The Action of Symmetry Groups of Platonic Solids on their Respective Vertices
(Kenyatta University, 2020)Platonic solids are 3-dimensional regular, convex polyhedrons. Each of the faces are equidistant and equiangular to each other in any of the solids. They derive their name from the ancient Greek philosopher, P lato who ... -
Analysis of flow in regular bend pipe
(2012-02-01)A fluid is a substance that deforms continuously on application of slight shear stress. The study of fluid mechanics deals with motion of fluids and conditions that support or after motion. Fluid mechanics can be divided ... -

(Kenyatta University, 2019-04)This study investigates the effect of heat and mass transfer on Magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) nanofluid with thermal radiation and brownian motion over a heated vertical plate. The Magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) nanofluid flow ... -
Analysis of Magnetohydrodynamic Convective Heat Transfer of Casson Nanofluid Flow Over a Heated Stretching Vertical Plate
(Kenyatta University, 2022)Casson fluid has many industrial and engineering applications. However, Casson nanofluid possesses superior electrical and thermal conductivities compared with the original Casson fluid. Hence, the Casson nanofluid is ... -
Analysis of Magnetohydrodynamic Heat and Mass Transfer with Carbon Nanotubes-Graphene Casson Hybrid Nanofluid
(Kenyatta University, 2022)Fluids such as liquids and gases are amassed into either Newtonian or non-Newtonian groups. Most fluids fall under the non-Newtonian category and, as a result, various models like Casson fluid and Williamson fluid model ... -
Analysis of Magnetohydrodynamic Stagnation Point Flow Due to a Fluid towards a Convectively Heated Permeable Stretching Sheet
(Kenyatta University, 2020-10)Stagnation-point flow of an electrically conducting fluid over a continuously stretching surface in presence of magnetic fields is significant in many industrial processes such as the metallurgy, polymer processing, glass ... -
Analysis of seasonal time series with missing observations
(2012-04-11)In the past, Kenya's Tourist data has been analysed by among others, Mutiso (1982) who carried out Spectral Analysis to the monthly data for a series covering 10 years (1971-1980). Mutiso came up with general conclusion ... -
Analysis of Vertical Transmission Dynamics of Infectious Hepatitis B Virus: Mathematical Model Involving Vaccination And Treatment in Turkana County, Kenya
(Kenyatta University, 2022)Hepatitis B has been a major global health menace for it is a potentially life-threatening liver disease. Close to 0.25 billion persons are living with this infectious disease across the world. It’s transmitted by infected ... -
Aspects of controllability of autonomous systems in locally convex topological spaces
(2012-05-16)In this project, two theorems in (6) on controllability of autonomous systems defined with the help of ordinary Differential Equations (ODE) in finite dimensional vector spaces is genralized to infinite dimensional locally ... -
Bioconvection of a Newtonian Nanofluid Over a Vertical Plate in Presence of Gyrotactic Microorganisms
(Kenyatta University, 2019-12)Bioconvection induced by gyrotactic microorganisms in a Newtonian nanofluid past a permeable vertical plate is studied. Addition of motile microorganisms to a suspension of nanoparticles in a basefluid enhances mass ... -
Buoyancy-Induced Mhd Stagnation Point Flow of Williamson Fluid with Thermal Radiation Over a Stretching Surface
(Kenyatta University, 2020)The current study investigates the buoyancy-induced MHD stagnation point flow of Williamson fluid with thermal radiation over a stretching sheet. A system of nonlinear partial differential together with the boundary ... -
Comparison of the performance of estimators in estimation of finite population total
(2012-02-01)In this project we compare the performance of two different estimators of the population total. One estimator is model-based and the other one is model assisted. We look at model-based properties of the two estimators. ... -
Coriolis Effects on Air, Nanofluid and Casson Fluid Flow Over a Surface with Nonuniform Thickness
(Kenyatta University, 2022)The trajectories of moving objects in a rotating frame is usually deflected by Coriolis force and this leads to many of the natural phenomena on Earth. Some of the natural outcomes of Coriolis effect include the tropical ... -
