Our work expressed that compressed and stabilized clay with arabic gum is a suitable building material in regards to the mechanical properties. This paper presents an experimental study of the determination of thermal conductivity in a steady state cylindrical geometry configurat...
Incineration bottom ash is a form of ash produced in incineration facilities and this material is discharged from the moving grate of municipal solid waste incinerators. Geotechnical investigation is one of the effective means of detecting and solving pre, syn and post constructi...
Calcium Titanium Oxide or Calcium Titanate (CaTiO3-CT) and Zinc doped calcium titanium oxide (Ca1-xZnxTiO3-CT:Zn) Powder in a concentration of (0 molar ration of Zinc) were obtained by a simple method called solid-state reaction. Ceramics are based on CaTiO3-CT and (Ca0.5Zn0.5)...
Date palm (Phoenix dactylifera) tolerates relatively harsh climatic and soil condition in Arab countries. The annual total irrigation water requirements for Date palm trees in the Arab regions range from 73.0 to 95 (m3/tree). Also, approximately 70-80% of global freshwater consum...
This work reviews the concept of drilling mud corrosion by highlighting the major corrosion types associated with drilling operations, mechanisms and control measures. Fatigue stress failures (stress corrosion fatigue and Sulphide stress cracking) were explained while some proces...
Tin- Doped Barium Titanate Ceramics is a multiferroic substance that displays an important role in electronic devices. Manufacturing of energy storage devices with good efficiency and fewer losses has been a distinct topic. In the current study, Solid solution of Tin-doped Barium...
The aim of the study was to analyze nano and microbiological effects of EVODROP Silver and Copper Nanoparticle. Studies of the nanotechnological material Silver Nanoparticle and EVODROP Copper Nanoparticle with author Fabio Huether have been performed. EVODROP Silver and Copper N...
Given the rising building collapses within the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), and the associated humanitarian consequences, this study evaluated materials management practices in building delivery process in build construction in Abuja, Nigeria. The study focused on analysis of...
Background: It is widely acknowledged that peri-prosthetic joint infection (PJI) is the most devastating and challenging complication of total joint arthroplasty. As such, over the years, myriad aspects of this problem have been studied, among which are methods to increase the re...
Pineapple leaf fibers (PALF), as the part of a large productive system, based on the availability of fruits for the food industry, offer a large amount of possibilities in term of use of the fibers, which are almost exclusively dedicated to the field of materials, as the reinforc...

This study determined the calorific value of briquettes made from Pinus caribaea and Eucalyptus citirodora. Sawdust samples were collected from a sawmill in Buruku, Kaduna State. The briquettes were produced in a manually operated hydraulic briquette machine with binder in percent...
This study was aimed to evaluate the residual heavy metals concentrations, within the soil of a former petroleum spill site. Soil samples were spatially collected from five locations within a former petroleum spill site, located at Ozoro in Isoko North Local Government Area of De...
Usage of alternative fine aggregates in concrete and cement mortar has been gradually increasing by the construction industries around the world due to the escalated shortage in obtaining natural river sand. Manufactured sand and offshore sand can be considered as the principal a...
The knowledge of the mechanical properties of agricultural products plays an essential role during the design, development, programming and utilization of their automated harvesting, handling and processing machines. The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of field...
The responses of chemically treated and untreated Bagasse filler (Sugar cane fiber) reinforced low density polyethylene composites (LDPEC) to Scanning electrons microscope (SEM), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, and Dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA) was investigate...
