The radiation dose received by the patient during the radiological examination is essential to prevent risks of exposure.A study was carried out to establish the trend of dose received by patient during x-ray examination in Federal Medical Centre, Keffi in Nasa...
6. EXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATION OF THE FLEXURAL AND SHEAR CAPACITIES OF REINFORCED CONCRETE BEAMS ENHANCED WITH CARBON FIBRE REINFORCED POLYMER (CFRP) LAMINATES
ABSTRACT
In this research, experimental research was carried out to assess the flexural and shear capacities of RC beams strengthened with different amount of carbon fibre reinforced polymer laminates at the tension face and U-strips. Twelve rectangular RC beams of cross-sectional dimen...
7. MODAL ANALYSIS OF VERTICALLY CURVED CONCRETE FLYOVER BRIDGES
ABSTRACT
The effectiveness and sensitivity of vertically curved concrete flyover bridge (VCCFB) profile is presented. Modal analysis was conducted on three VCCFB models; one for a profile achieved using horizontal beams, profile achieved using slightly curved beams and a profile achieve...
8. BEAM DISCOVERY AND TRACKING FOR MOBILE MIMO
ABSTRACT
The real-time applications and the IoT promote the need for a newer idle spectrum to support the required high traffic. This pushes toward the emergence of the millimeter-wave (mmWave) and the sub-Terahertz (sub-THz) bands in wireless communication. Albeit these higher frequenc...
9. MITIGATING THE EFFECT OF TOPOLOGY IN CELLULAR MOBILE NETWORK USING MATLAB
BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
Wireless Ad hoc Networks are networks in which wireless nodes cooperate to establish network connectivity and perform routing functions in the absence of infrastructure using selforganization. Similarly, Mobile wireless Ad hoc Networks (MANETs) are networks in wh...
10. EFFECT OF VERTICAL RECTANGULAR OPENINGS ON THE FLEXURAL STRENGTH OF REINFORCED CONCRETE BEAM
ABSTRACT
Effect of vertical rectangular openings on the flexural strength of reinforced concrete beam is presented. Twelve reinforced concrete beams of dimension 200m x 230mm x 700mm with different sizes of rectangular openings, 25mm x 35mm, 50mm x 60mm and 75mm x 85mm which are placed...
11. DESIGN_AND_CONSTRUCTION_OF_AN_INVERTER_TYPE_ARC_WELDING_MACHINE
THE BACKGROUND
Welding is a way of heating pieces of metal using electricity or a flame so that they melt and stick together. It can simply be defined as the process of joining two or more pieces of metal to make the act as a single piece. This is often done by melting the work pieces a...
