Abstract Incorporating blends of some waste materials in soil improvement efforts could alleviate the problems of excessive soil compressibility. This paper presents the results of compressibility parameters of two expansive soils (peat and marine clays) stabilized with a blend of lime and marble dust in various percentages. One dimensional consolidation test was conducted to determine […]

Abstract The fundamental step needed for planning and optimizing any wireless network during its early phase of deployment involves the estimation of radio coverage. Fifth generation (5G) telecommunication systems in Nigeria are in their early stages; hence, there is a need to develop effective mobile coverage prediction models with high accuracy and minimal complexity. In […]

There is a need to improve conditions of poor loading margin from electric utilities to avoid unallowable bus loading limits. In this study, the Trans-Amadi 33kV Distribution Network in Port Harcourt, Niger Delta, Nigeria was investigated using the continuation power flow algorithm. Load parameters were considered as declared variables with loading trends at an incremental step of 2%:2:10% at a constant loading factor () of 1.

Abstract Calibrating three-hole probes before using them to obtain measurement data from turbomachines has become imperative. Calibration of the three-hole probe prior to its use in any turbomachinery measurement is crucial due to manufacturing inaccuracies during production. This study presents the calibration of a three hole probe used to measure the performance of a suction […]
