ABSTRACT This report presents the development of light vehicle brake pad test rig for testing and measuring the materials frictional characteristics such as brake pad wear rate, disc temperature, and average disc stopping time. Product validation and quality control is very necessary in the developmental process of any product. The brake pads were tested at various input variables such as speed and pressure to determine the effects of contact pressure ...

ABSTRACT This study shows how to monitor the movement of cattle using wireless sensor nodes powered by a renewable energy source capable of detecting location, and incorporated in it all the available mobile networks to ensure that information about cattle location gets to the base in real-time. Performance analysis was carried out on the energy consumption pattern of the nodes which indicated that throughout the monitoring period, the average energy ...

ABSTRACT Automated  system  of  fish  farming  has  become  inevitable  due  to  the  immense importance of fisheries aquaculture. The efficiency of any fish rearing system depends on monitoring and control of pond water quality parameters as well as adequate feeding and a reliable power source. This work presents a fish pond monitoring and control system that improves on the efficiency of fish rearing. A sensor network consisting of temperature, pH, turbidity ...

ABSTRACT The work focuses on the development of a low cost briquette making machine using Rice husks and Sugarcane baggase as selected materials. The realization that deforestation and wood fuel shortages are likely to become pressing problems in many countries has turned attention to other types of biomass fuel. However, rice husks and sugarcane baggasse residues are often bulky and difficult to burn which lead to this conversion technique developed. ...

ABSTRACT This research work is centered on critical analysis of the manner in which oil exploitation is conducted in the Niger Delta Region. It also focuses on how the Niger Delta environment is contaminated via the activities of oil exploitation, thereby leading to abrupt destruction of her natural habitats. As a result, hardship in survival of the inhabitants owing to refusal of the Federal government and Multinational oil companies to ...

ABSTRACT Today, wireless networks are characterized by a static spectrum assignment policy. Day after day, there has been an increasing demand in this technological area due to its benefits to human activities and exploration. This spectacular growth in wireless services had also resulted to an increase in spectrum demand to meet up with the human quest. However, an increase in voice demand has been experienced as more people unplug their ...

ABSTRACT Multi Agent Systems have proven to be a powerful new approach for designing and developing complex and distributed software systems. Developing multi-agent systems for complex and distributed systems entails a robust methodology to assist developers to develop such systems in appropriate way. In the last ten years, many Agent Oriented Methodologies have been proposed with some shortcomings that include lack of industrial suitability, lack of standard, research problem and ...

ABSTRACT Cloud computing is a service delivery model whereby its rich shared resources are provided to clients electronically as a utility over an internet. Security of internally stored sensitive data has been challenging due to some known risks posed to these data such as internal risks like fire and liquid hazards, conflicts of interest, political intent, and others. This research proposes outsourcing of these data that are managed locally to ...

ABSTRACT Advanced precision engineering has enabled the development of hyperspectral sensors. These sensors can be used in the collection of highly detailed spectra information from required target using non-intrusive, zero-impact and remote sensing methods. A particular usage is the use of hyperspectral sensors on satellites to obtain information about earth surfaces and minerals beneath the surface. However, the data so-obtained consist of high dimension (hundreds of bands) spectrum that needs ...

ABSTRACT Majority of enterprises of various industries rarely utilize the vast internally and externally generated data available in the business for productive and improved performance of the sectors. This has been due to the paucity of reliable intelligent systems to enable such sectors to fully manipulate these vast heterogeneous data. The concept of Business Intelligence comes handy to resolve the problem involved in decision making as well as in taking ...
