Combined effects of municipal and industrial wastes on the quality of the new northern Calabar River, Nigeria (2016)
Journal Article

This study was conducted to investigate the combined effects of municipal and industrial waste discharges on the quality of the new northern Calabar River in the Niger Delta province (5.317°N, 6.467°E) of Nigeria. Water samples were collected in June... Read More about Combined effects of municipal and industrial wastes on the quality of the new northern Calabar River, Nigeria.

Current trend in water supply and consumption, and associated health implications ions in Port Harcourt, Nigeria (2016)
Journal Article

This paper briefly discussed potable water situation in Port Harcourt, Nigeria, from the 1950s, and then
highlighted major factors preventing the implementation of water projects. Due to the inability of government
to provide water, and the regulat... Read More about Current trend in water supply and consumption, and associated health implications ions in Port Harcourt, Nigeria.

Robust feedback linearization control of air-feed system in PEM fuel cell against practical uncertainty (2016)
Journal Article

In this paper robust feedback linearization control approach based on the gap metric analysis is proposed to control a Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cell (PEMFC). The oxygen excess ratio ( ) is regulated through adjustment of the air supply to avoid...

Ductile to brittle failure transition of HSLA-100 steel at high strain rates and subzero temperatures (2016)
Journal Article

Mechanical properties of HSLA-100 steel at room and subzero temperatures of −40 °C, −80 °C and −196 °C were investigated in this work. Dry ice and liquid nitrogen were used to reach the low temperatures. Also, the material response to different strai...

Experimental measurement and analytical determination of shot peening residual stresses considering friction and real unloading behavior (2016)
Journal Article

This paper presents an analytical model to predict the residual stress distribution induced by Shot peening. The analytical approach is based on the work of Shen and Atluri (2006) [18] with some modifications. The modifications are related to the ela...
