Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDevelopment of an Arduino-Based Robotic Arm Yam Heap MakerAgbese Raphael, Dagwa Ishaya Musa, Nurudeen Abdulhakeem Hassan, Adekunle JoshuaIn this study, a prototyperobotic arm yam heap-maker using Arduino was developed. Nigeria produces around75% of global yam production which is widely consumed as staple foods in Africaand Asia and as raw materials for processing into other finished goods. Theproduction of this economic commodity is largely crude and labor-intensive assuch the need to adopt a modern approach to farming. The … …Journal of Mechatronics and Robotics, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 2 Sep 2022 · 6,463 accessesView PDFCite
Literature ReviewOpen accessIn the abstractReview of Blue-Green Infrastructure in Some Selected CountriesTariku Neme Afata, Seyoum Derib, Reda NemoBlue-Green Infrastructures (BGI) integrate solutions implemented to enhance water management and landscape values for more climate-resilient and livable cities. It has created an opportunity to renew the natural structure of water balance in cities and rural through the increase in rainwater retention and enlargement of permeable areas. The objective of this review is to assess the blue-green infrastructures of selected … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 4 · 4 Aug 2022 · 7,096 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFeasibility of Hybrid Neuro-Fuzzy (ANFIS) Machine Learning Model with Classical Multi-Linear Regression (MLR) For the Simulation of Solar Radiation: A Case Study Abuja, NigeriaNajashi B. Gafai, Asia'u Talatu BelgoreThe extremely variable nature of solar radiation makes it difficult for solar power plants to keep up with predicted power output and demand curves. As a result, solar radiation simulation is crucial to the efficient design, administration, and operation of any solar power plant. With only partially satisfactory results, empirical models have been routinely employed in Nigeria to predict solar … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 21 Jul 2022 · 10,032 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSimulation of Production of Anhydrous Bioethanol using Glycerol and 1-Butyl-3-Methylimidazolyl-Tetrafluoroborate in the Aspen Plus SimulatorJosé Izaquiel Santos da Silva, Lílian da Silva Félix, Mariana Martins Vieira et al.Biofuels are present in the global scenario as an energy source derived from organic biomass, representing an economic and environmental alternative. They are a renewable source of energy with low rates of pollutants emissions and, consequently, less carbon dioxide is released into the atmosphere. The obtaining of bioethanol is originated from a fermentation process, in which a multi-component mix is … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 2 · 16 Jun 2021 · 7,109 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractThe Timeless Contribution of Rootstocks towards Successful Horticultural Farming: From Ancient Times to the Climate Change EraIoannis E. PapadakisGrafting is a horticultural practice by which living vegetative plant organs (root, stem and/or buds) of either the same genotype or, usually, different genotypes belonging to the same species, genus, subfamily and/or family, are tightly connected to each other to form a double-compound plant. In fact, it is a method of asexual (clonal-vegetative) propagation of plants. The basal part of … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 16 Dec 2016 · 9,521 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractBig Data and Parkinson’s Disease - from Understanding of Disease to Personalised MedicineYen F. Tai, Nicola PaveseThe advancement of information technology in recent years has generated a huge amount of datasets in all areas of scientific research. This has led to new opportunities to harness the 'Big Data' to improve our understanding of diseases - from investigating disease mechanisms to monitoring treatment responses. The Big Data approach is a data-driven and often hypothesis-free, way of studying … …Neuroscience International, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 27 Jul 2016 · 7,755 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractINVESTIGATIONS ON THE PERFORMANCE OF VAPOUR COMPRESSION SYSTEM RETROFITTED WITH ZEOTROPIC REFRIGERANT R404AA. Lovelin Jerald, D. SenthilKumaranThe environmental impacts like global warming and ozone depletion has become a challenge to the refrigeration and air conditioning industry. Chloro Fluoro Carbons (CFCs) and Hydro Flouro Carbons (HCFCs) are referred to as an Ozone Depleting Substances (ODS) because once these gases are released into the environment and reach the stratosphere, depletes the ozone layer. This research paper aims to … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 11 Feb 2014 · 7,626 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGlobal Solar Radiation Studies Due to Sunshine Hours and Other Meteorological ParametersMfon David Umoh, Sunday O. Udo, Ye-Obong N. UdoakahMultiple linear regression models were developed to estimate the monthly daily Sunshine Hours using four parameters during a period of eleven years (1997-2007) for locations in South Eastern Nigeria. These locations include Uyo (Latitude 5°18'53.7"N), Calabar (Latitude 5°16'07.6"N), Port Harcourt (Latitude 4°56'26.2"N), Warri (Latitude 5°34'21.0"N), Enugu (Latitude 6°27'42.42"N), Owerri (Latitude 5°38'05.1"N). The parameters include Relative Humidity, Maximum and Minimum temperatures, … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2013 · 7,700 accessesView PDFCite
