This study of pressurized water reactor design models involves the application of linear regression analysis on two typical Water-Cooled Nuclear Reactor design models, viz Pressurized Water Reactor Design I (PWRD I) and Pressurized Water Reactor Design II (PWRD II). Empirical…

In this paper, the sawdust briquette machine is designed. Sawmill waste is a big problem especially in urban cities in Nigeria. These wastes are burnt openly which is causing environmental pollution. The wastes can be converted to wealth thereby providing…

This paper presents of analysis the performance monopole antenna with fluorescent tubes. The antenna was designed at the operating frequency which is 4.9 GHz. The commercially fluorescent tubes consist of a glass tube filled with mixture mercury vapor and argon…

Mechatronics engineer is expected to design engineering systems with synergy and integration toward constrains like higher performance, speed, precision, efficiency, lower costs and functionality. The key element in success of a mechatronics engineering education-program, and correspondingly, Mechatronics engineering graduates, is…

This paper presents the kinematics of the leg-bicycle five-bar linkage system mechanism including foot segment. Kinematics is very important in the analysis of rigid bodies system whenever theoretical analysis is being sought especially in bicycle-leg linkage mechanism. A lot of…

IN-SITU Al2O3 SiC C having 20 wt%, 25 wt%, 30 wt% and 35wt% of powdered particulate were fabricated by liquid metallurgy (stir cast) method. The composite specimens were machined as per test standards. The specimens were tested to know the…

A preliminary climatology analysis of a catchment using computer simulation demanding upon Petrie Creek cathment as case study. The SimCLIM system simulation has been done and as reference for another similar case. A climate change significantly is identified that increase…

This paper presents the performance analysis of magnetostrictive amorphous wire in motor speed measurement. The principle of the operation of the sensor is based on Large Barkhausen Jump (LBJ), a unique feature of the wire. A dc motor is used…

A two/three terminal active device integrated with a microstrip circular patch antenna is known as an Active Microstrip Circular Patch Antenna. In case of active antenna maximum possible radiated power can be realized when i) the generated power is maximized…

An Active Slot-Ring Antenna (ASRA) has been studied through experiments and analysis in order to find the optimum location of the active device so that the best performance in antenna characteristics is realized in terms of power radiated and power…
