The Impact of Chemical Reaction and Heat source on MHD Free Convection Flow over an Inclined Porous Surface
      Ekakitie Omamoke, Amos Emeka

Abstract: This study analyzes the chemical reaction and heat source effects on MHD free convection flow, of an incompressible fluid that is viscous over an inclined porous surface. With the application of the perturbation technique, the solution of a set of ordinary differential equations are gotten as a result of reducing the non-linear partial differential equations of motion, energy and diffusion, which are solved analytically for velocity, temperature and the concentration distribution. The effect of Chemical reaction and heat source on the velocity, temperature, concentration, skin friction, heat transfer and rate of mass flux distribution is plotted graphically and discussed.

Abstract: Governance basically fosters effective and inclusive decision making process in all forms of authority. It ensures the legitimacy of citizens in determining their own ways of persuading the course of resource distribution and utilization to realize much anticipated upshots. Despite all the efforts guaranteed in the Constitution of Kenya, 2010 and other international conventions to offer women opportunities to govern, women’s role in decision making on governance is still low; meaning that women are still faced by challenges in decision making on governance.

Abstract: T-junctions are widely used to facilitate the mixture of two fluids at different temperatures and in most cases, different velocity also. Temperature of the mixture at the outlet of the main pipe undoubtedly plays a significant role in all the industries where T-junctions are implemented as their main intention is to get reduced temperature of the fluid. This paper deals with the three main cases which are expected to rather have a significant impact on the outlet temperature viz. short tee, increased velocity ratio and long tee respectively.

Abstract: Academic writing is at the heart of teaching and learning in higher education. Students are assessed largely by what they write, and need to learn both general academic conventions as well as disciplinary writing requirements in order to be successful in higher education. However, statistics show that the quality of academic writing of university students does not meet the disciplinary requirements. This study explores the gap that exists in between the schools writing and writing at university.

Abstract: This paper constructs a legitimate tax plan that could be used by a multinational technology company to minimize its corporate taxes. Multinational technology companies minimize their corporate taxes by using a number of strategies such as taking advantage of the loopholes in the tax codes where they earn cross border incomes, using intellectual property arrangements to locate subsidiary companies in low tax jurisdictions and using techniques such as “Double the Irish with a Double Dutch Sandwich”. Historically the international taxation of multinational companies has evolved over the last 100 years and organizations such as the G.8 and the OECD have worked tirelessly to harmonize the international taxation issues among nations.

Abstract: The emergence of technology has impacted several disciplines of human life. The overall objective of the study was to explore the extent to which Bachelor of Education (Mathematics) students of the University of Cape Coast (UCC) are exposed to the utilization of technology tools in their programme of study. A descriptive survey design was adopted for the study. The population considered was all Bachelor of Education (Mathematics) students at the University of Cape Coast. A total of 120 students were carefully selected for the study using purposive sampling. The main instrument used in collecting data was a questionnaire. The key findings of the study established that, although mathematics education students have a positive perception of the usage of technology, the students have very little exposure to technology in their learning programme. With reference to the finding, it was suggested that the institution should inculcate technology in mathematics education by making ICT a minor course for the Bachelor of Education (Mathematics) programme.

Abstract: Perishable agricultural product require great attention to sustain their supply on the market. For the lack of appropriate handling and storage, significant amount of product goes waste before it reaches market and consumption. During the peak production season, farmers are forced to sell the products at extremely low prices particularly for tomato because of lack of appropriate storage structure. Therefore losses can also be minimized by storing them at low temperature and high relative humidity environment.

Abstract: The mobile telephony has gained momentum and is one of the defining communication technologies of the time. This paper interrogates the adoption of mobile telephony from varied scholars’ perspectives. The insights are from the youth’s uses of this communication technology while looking at how this use has impacted on family communication. The mobile phone is seen to have structured certain interaction behaviors in the youth among them a decreased desire for the face to face interaction. This was observed from the youth’s continued display of addiction to social media. One of the important observations is that that uses of mobile phones to a great extent have altered the way families interact and have generated certain negative interactive behaviors. Nonetheless, this paper does not demonize mobile telephony but implores for appropriate usage of the communication technology.
