Shallow Seismic Refraction Investigation for Site Classification and Geotechnical Engineering Applications
Abstract: The survey was carried to determine the Site Class of the study area and also estimate some geotechnical parameters of potential construction sites within the study area. The survey was conducted on the University of Mines and Technology (UMaT) campus, using Geometrics ES 3000, A 12-Channel seismograph developed by Geometric Inc. The results from the study show that the subsurface of the study area is made up of four layers. …

Mechanical and Tribological Characterization of CaCO3 and CaSO4 Filled CSM-E-Glass Fiber Reinforced Vinyl Ester Composites
Abstract: AbstractIn this paper, mechanical and tribological behavior of the composites under dry sliding wear of vinyl ester matrix reinforced with chopped strand mat (CSM)-E-glass fiber and fillers CaSO4 and CaCO3 sliding against smooth stainless steel counterface (Ra = 0.07 µm) using Taguchi experimental design has been presented. The effects of sliding velocity (1.57, 2.62 and 3.67 m/s), normal load (20, 40 and 60 N), filler content (0, 10 and 20 …

The Induction, Formation, and Establishment of Giant Cell in Plant-Parasitic (Meloidogyne Spp.)-Host Interactions: A Molecular and Cellular Basis
Abstract: Root-knot nematodes, (RKN) are obligatory endoparasites of over 3000 plant species, causing $70 billion in annual economic losses globally. The second stage juveniles hatch from the eggs invade the root apex and inject pathogen effectors that induce specialized feeding cell called Giants cell that are large multinucleated cell formed, due to repeated cycles of mitosis without cytokinesis and served sole source of feeding site for rootknot nematode. The ability RNN …

Low Velocity Impact Behaviour of Corrugated Foam Sandwich Panel
Abstract: Composite sandwich structures, renowned for their high flexural stiffness and low weight, are widely used across industries such as aerospace, automotive, and marine. However, their durability can be compromised by impact-related damages, which affect both the core and face sheets. This study explores the performance of corrugated sandwich panels compared to conventional designs under low-velocity impacts. Using a drop weight impact testing machine, panels made from polyurethane foam cores and …

Estimation of Drilling Waste Generation for Effective Waste Management
Abstract: Drilling operations remains the second generator of oil and gas waste after production activities. They are prominent among the primary sources of exploration and production waste. Wastes from drill cuttings and mud, and obnoxious gas emissions are the major contributors of these drilling wastes. These have direct and indirect impact on both humans and the environment. Poor estimation of waste may lead to solid and or liquid loadings at the …
