This paper shows a detailed methodology for creating 2D and 3D visual facility map of the campus. The purpose of this study work is to develop an interactive interface containing the 2 and 3-Dimensional features of all the ...

Iron oxide bearing wastes (IOBS) are produced at every part of processing stage of sinter, molten iron and steel production. They are hard to handle and in many cases are stockpiled only to be a source of environmental ...

This study reports the results of investigation conducted to evaluate the performance of foamed aerated concrete beams with bamboo as the tensile reinforcement. The flexural parameters assessed were, load-deflection ...

This paper presents the results of a study conducted to investigate the flexural behaviour of foam concrete containing pulverised bone as partial replacement of cement. A total of sixty reinforced beams (150x 150x750 mm) ...

Polymers are characterised with lightness, ease of formability and resistance to chemical attack but their modulus and strength are low. Epoxy was reinforced with aluminium particles of different sizes. Bond, functional ...

The principal reason for the existence of university is the acquisition and subsequent utilization of new information (research) and its dissemination to the end-users (education). Research is the bedrock of the university, ...

The concept of component miniaturization is core in the production of sensitive components of the micro, nano and meso-scale. Vibration assisted micro-end milling is a miniaturized machining method that effectively produce ...

There are various mechanisms that can be responsible for material fracture which can ultimately lead to failure and there are different modes of failure. More often, the quantification of the dominating failure mode and ...

In Nigeria, funding mechanisms for Engineering and Technology Education in tertiary institutions have witnessed serious decline in the last two decades. In 1979, the Government introduced its policy of free education at ...

This work is presented as a further study to our previous work, “Thermal performance analysis of a natural convection porous fin with temperature-dependent thermal conductivity and internal heat" published in "Thermal ...

Akure is one of the cities undergoing rapid growth in Nigeria, which has resulted to remarkable Urban Heat Island (UHI) effect. To examine the impact of this development in the city and its environs, this study derived the ...

This paper presents the use of the constructal design technique to optimise the geometry of a multilayered microchannel heat sink. The objective of this numerical investigation was to minimise the peak temperature of the ...

The potential of the forest as a natural sink is vast and enormous and has been well documented in several types of research and reports. This project is an attempt at re-emphasizing this potential, by using geospatial ...

This study analyzed trend and examined the factors responsible for urban sprawl in Akure with a view to develop a user-friendly geospatial database for monitoring urban sprawl in the study area. Medium resolution satellite ...

The study assessed the amount of carbon being sequestrated in the Ondo State Afforestation Project in Oluwa Forest, south -west of Nigeria, with the view to determine the above ground biomass (AGB) and belowground biomass ...
