Experimental Testing and Ply Wise Strength 0°-45°-0° Investigation of Multi-orientation Carbon Fiber Specimen by Using FEA and UTM
Abstract: Synthetic composites have higher strength to weight ratio and are extensively used in industrialapplications. Carbon fibers have extensively high tensile strength. Most of the composites haveorthotropic properties and their strength varies as per orientation. Laminar having differentply orientations have different properties and strengths. Hence, to enhance strength of carbonfiber specimen reducing layer wise damage becomes up most important. It is unimaginable toexpect to examine the layer insightful harm of each …

Testing and Analysis of Biogas Development using Cow Dung for Rural Areas in Northern Ghana
Abstract: The proposed paper aims to analyze the production of biogas by the use of cow dung with adifferent set of experiments. For this experiment, five-set of 250 ml conical flasks (labelled A-E), were used as digesters to generate biogas from cow dung. This experiment is subjected tofive different treatments to do the analysis. The slurry with 58.3 g dung and 174.9 g water iscollected in the digesters and it is …

Worker Radiation Exposure during Transportation of Irradiated LEU Targets in a Typical MTR Reactor
Abstract: The paper estimates the radiation dose exposure for the worker in the second Egyptian research reactor ETRR-2 during the process of transporting the irradiated low enriched uranium LEU plates from the core to the hot cell. The aim of estimating the radiation doses distribution is determining the exposure dose for the worker during the transportation process as a safety point of view. In order to estimate irradiated LEU plates radiation …

Human Comfort inside the Vehicle by Using Internal Cooling Materials
Abstract: Human comfort is the most important aspect of the vehicle. Due to harsh sunlight and many other climatic conditions the human comfort level is breached. This breaching in the comfort level results in the abnormal physical conditions of the human. The occupants may feel uncomfortable which may cause unpleasant ride and journey. The most common problem encountered under this condition is the overheating of the vehicle -cabin due to parking …

A Synthesized Effect of Urban Modification and Net Radiation on the Climate of Lagos Metropolis, Nigeria
Abstract: Land cover adjustment which includes urban landscaping, agriculture crops or hardscapes forconstructing and parking lots promote variations in the energy and radiation balance. Due tothe above listed modifications, the surface temperatures and near-surface air temperatures overurban patches are generally higher than those over rural areas, thus resulting in an Urban HeatIsland (UHI). In this study, urban landscape and Land Surface Temperature (LST), netradiation, and Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) data …
