Suitability of Stone Dust as an Alternative Aggregate in Asphalt Mixtures Using Rothfuch’s Method of Aggregate Combination
Abstract: The increase in pollution across the globe is one crucial area requiring mitigation. The bye product of quarries can pose great health and environmental risks. Construction industries in Nigeria heavily relies on conventional asphalt aggregate for construction of road pavements. This is one area of interest as mineral fillers and different aggregate gradations have a great effect on the mechanical property of asphalt concrete pavements. Stone dust is obtained from …

Comparative Study on the Growth and Yield of Ganoderma lucidium Mushroom Cultivated on African Peach (Nauclea diderrichii) and Bush Mango (Endospermum medullosum) Sawdust as Substrates
Abstract: This study was conducted to find out which substrate provides for the best artificial development of G. lucidium. Mango (Mangifera indica) leaves were added to the saw dusts of Nauclea diderrichii and Endospermum medullosum, which were both utilized as substrates for growing. The substrates were inoculated with Ganoderma spawn and then exposed and hydrated to start the fruiting process. Three replications of the process were carried out. It was observed …

A Overview of Free Space Optical Communication (FSO)
Abstract: Free Space Optical communication (FSO) is a wireless communication system that employs light propagation across free space to transport data between two sites without the usage of fibre optic cables. It uses either lasers or light emitting diodes (LEDs) for high speed data transmission with enormous bandwidth, which makes it a desirable solution for modern communication systems. The FSO provides many advantages such as minimal installation cost, excellent security, licence …
