Lateritic soils are mostly used as filling materials for Civil engineering construction works. There is a need to establish the Engineering properties of these soils before they are used as foundation materials, in order ...

The project work investigated the Geomechanical Characteristic of the Conglomeratic layer in Akure, southwestern Nigeria. This is with a view to determining the spread as well as the physical and mechanical properties ...

This study integrates seismic attributes using a machine learning algorithm for hydrocarbon zone prediction over the study area. It attempts to resolve the problem of making accurate and efficient interpretations from a ...

This research uses geophysical techniques such as Magnetic, Electrical Resistivity Imaging (ERI) and remote sensing (RMS), to image the lateritic bauxite bearing zones in Orin-Ekiti, Southwestern Nigeria. Several parameters ...

The use of agro-waste products as reinforcements in the development of polymer composites for different engineering applications is increasingly gaining global attentions and acceptance. The reasons for the choice of ...

The demand to transfer higher heat fluxes at lower wall superheats and to predict the limits of the boiling process is growing and makes the scientific investigation of boiling phenomena inevitable. A numerical investigation ...

Effective selection of appropriate shielding environment plays an important role in achieving a high quality weld, which in turn enhances deep penetration, surface appearance and mechanical properties of the weldments. In ...

This research achieved a multi-sensing rig for acquisition of tool-tip workpiece temperature, machine vibration and current signals during mechanical machining operation. The critical process parameters important for ...

The use of agro-wastes as reinforcements in polymer bio-composite is becoming popular because of the low processing cost and their availability. However, there is little informationon the wear resistance performance of ...

Open defecation is an act of unhealthy human practice of defecating in the open instead of toilets which is covered, safe and hygienic. This study therefore is designed to assess open defecation sites and their health ...
