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 …

Beyond Conventional: Nanostructures as Key Enablers for Efficiency Enhancement in Thin Film Photovoltaics
Abstract: One of the key options for lowering the cost of photovoltaic production through the reduction ofactive material utilisation is thin-film solar cells. However, thin film solar cells' performance may beconstrained by low light absorption brought on by a low absorption coefficient or by an inadequatelythick active layer. Minimising expenses and increasing overall efficiency in thin-film solar cells needimproving light absorption that can be converted into electrical power. As a result, …

Capability Database of Injection Molding Process—Requirements Study for Wider Suitability and Higher Accuracy
Abstract: AbstractGenerally, there is little disagreement that an early consideration of dimensional accuracies achieved in production is conducive to the success of development of injection molding products. While different process capability databases (PCDBs) provide guidance for a meaningful estimation of the expected part variation, the adoption of corresponding guidelines and (proprietary) software tools seems to be, however, limited in industrial practice so far. This research paper addresses the gap between the …

Synthesis and Characterization of Ether Containing Tetraglycidyl Epoxy Reinforced with Amine Functionalized Graphene Oxide (F-Go) and It’s Nanocomposites
Abstract: AbstractTGDDE matrix material along with functionalized graphene oxide (F-GO) as reinforcement was used to develop a unique skeletally modified tetra functional epoxy nanocomposites. Amine functionalization of graphene oxide nanoparticles (F-GO) on its surface was achieved by grafting 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES) as coupling agent. The FT-IR spectrum revealed that the silane coupling agent was covalently bonded to the surface of graphene oxide nanoparticles, offering better dispersibility and compatibility with TGDDE epoxy matrix. …
