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…

A rectangular flat plate rotor was tested inside a wind tunnel. The plate was half shielded by semi - cylindrical cover so that the wind strikes one half of the plate. The power coefficient and output torque were found experimentally…

The purpose of this paper is to the study of the existence of common fixed point theorem for a sequence of self maps satisfying generalized contractive condition for a cone metrice space and obtains some new results in it. Also…

A secure information infrastructure is required to sustain competitive advantage. Despite creditable efforts, there are visible failures of Information Security (IS). Breach data offers necessary relatively unbiased and robust feedback to reveal what is overlooked for apt countermeasures and improved…

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…

Today diesel engine-driven standby generators for backup power supply have been adopted for residential, commercial, and industrial use—especially in some developing countries where power from the utility company is highly erratic. Although many of these generators function well in operation,…

For the treatment of progressive damage, spatial discretization is required so that numerical techniques such as the finite element method or finite difference method would be advantageous. Finite element and finite difference techniques have also been applied to impact problems…
