Geotechnical Assessment and Stabilisation of Lateritic Soils in Tarkwa Using Rice Husk Ash for Road Construction Purpose
Abstract: The cost effectiveness of upgrading gravel roads to a sealed standard has challenged road authorities to make optimum use of naturally occurring materials such as laterites as sub-base and base materials. Untreated laterites have presented problems such as pavement swelling and depression in road construction. This research seeks to assess and stabilise the geotechnical properties of some lateritic soils in Tarkwa using Rice Husk Ash for road construction purposes. Lateritic …

Modulation in CRI Due to Solar-Interplanetary Causes during 1996–2018
Abstract: AbstractSolar outputs and their variations are responsible to produce modulation in cosmic ray intensity (CRI) both on short-term as well as on long–term basis. It is seen that sunspot number; 10.7 cm sun oriented radio transition, coronal mass launches (CMEs) and sunlight based flares are the causal connect to sun oriented movement (SA). In addition, coronal mass discharges are related with an assortment of interplanetary plasma and field aggravations. In …

A short review on scenario of Type 1 diabetes in Australia
Abstract: Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is caused by an autoimmune attack on pancreatic beta cells that leads to insulin deficiency. The incidence of T1D in Australia has doubled over the past 20 years. T1D treatment focuses on physiological insulin replacement, aiming for near-normal blood glucose levels. Morbidity and mortality result in hypoglycemia in T1D. Better results can be achieved by following some of the new technologies which includes insulin pumps, continuous …
