External Loan: One Step Forward, Many Step Backward for Socio-Economic Development in Nigeria
Abstract: The paper focuses attention on the negative impact of external loan on the Nigerian socio-economic development. The desire for rapid socio-economic development at independence forced the leaders of the first republic to collect one form of loan or the other in order to improve the nation’s infrastructure. In the 1970’s the oil boom re-positioned Nigeria as one of the rich and potential countries destined for rapid socio-economic development. Unfortunately, the …

Geotechnical Analysis of Stepped Gravity Walls
Abstract: Retaining walls are structures that help to maintain different elevations of the ground surface on either side of it. When the height of cut, backfill or slope is beyond a certain limit, a single gravity retaining wall becomes unfeasible and uneconomical. In such situations, stepped gravity walls can be an attractive option. The wall at each level of the retaining system should be checked for safety against sliding, overturning and …

Power Swing Detection and Out-of-Step Prediction Using the Equal Area Criterion
Abstract: During the operating conditions, the modern interconnected power systems are more subjected sudden changes, such as faults, network changes due to line trip outs, and disconnection of a large load or of a generating plant. Such disturbances create power swing among the other generators which forces the remaining generators to adjust and settle to new stable conditions. In some cases, the swings are so large that some generators run out …

Production of n-Butanol from Biomass by Two Step Fermentation Process Using Staphylococcus Sciuri
Abstract: This study explores the sustainable production of n-butanol from wheat husk through a two-step bioconversion process. Wheat husk, an abundant agricultural residue, was first fermented into butyric acid using Bacillus subtilis. The resultant butyric acid was then converted into n-butanol using Staphylococcus sciuri. The process leverages biological fermentation to create value-added chemicals from lignocellulosic biomass, offering an eco-friendly alternative to petrochemical methods. Two steps fermentation process were carried to increase …

Mechanisms of Crystal Growth: From Spiral Steps to Surface Adhesion
Abstract: Crystal growth is a complex interplay between thermodynamic stability and kinetic processes, influenced heavily by the conditions under which crystallization occurs—particularly the degree of supersaturation. This abstract outline three principal regimes of solution-grown crystal growth: defect-driven, two-dimensional, and adhesive growth. At low supersaturation, growth is facilitated at surface defects, such as screw dislocations, where energy barriers to attachment are minimized. This results in the formation of spiraling steps that propagate …
