Harnessing Hydropower Energy Devices for Nigerian Water Bodies
Abstract: Energy consumption in Nigeria is relatively high requiring alternative sources of power generation. In order to achieve a sustainable and renewable and cheap energy production, a decentralized energy generation is the clue as long distance transmission of this energy has proven to be unstable. A closer look on Nigeria’s hydrological map suggests the inclusion of the lower river basins into the energy generation plan. This makes the construction of a …

Modeling Pedestrian Walking and Crossing Characteristics at Nasiriya CBD
Abstract: To empower and support walking, comprehension of pedestrian and development of safe facilities for walking is essential. This work examines the factors which influence walking and crossing speed. The variations in walking speed of pedestrians are modeled and related to pedestrian characteristics such as gender, age group, and clothing traditions. On the other hand, the crossing speed of pedestrians was detected, and modeled. The counts of pedestrians were performed using …

Prioritization of Transit Stations to Promote as Transit-Oriented Development Using Analytic Hierarchy Process
Abstract: Multi-Criteria Decision-Making (MCDM) is always a tricky process for choosing the best optimal among various alternatives available. Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) is one of the most widely used concepts across the globe in different disciplines among various MCDM methods. In this study, AHP is used to prioritise the new or existing transit stations for its Transit Oriented Development (TOD) implication. TOD is known as multi faced planning concept which assures …

A Review of Traffic Noise Standards and Noise Models
Abstract: Traffic noise is one of the most irritating pollutions which affect human health in various forms, be it permanent hearing loss, shifting of hearing threshold, irritation/psychological problem, blood pressure, sleeping disorder, premature child birth, etc. The noise generated in the base year of any project may not be harmful, but it may be harmful by horizon year. Under this condition, noise mitigation measures need to be inbuilt in the project …
