    The functionality of an improved magnetic loop antenna (MLA) is a prominent research which has span almost three decades. Its shape and size had metaphorsize from the usual analogue to a digital device-which is now used for experiments in space. In this paper, the application of MLA for ultra wide band (UWB) design was proposed. A new concept was introduced -angular displacement theory which was used to mitigate fading in multipath propagation

    Lightning a Fundamental of Atmospheric Electricity

    This paper discussed briefly the basic connection between lightning phenomena and atmospheric electricity. Characteristics pertaining to lightning discharges were reviewed in order to elucidate some elementary mystics that are still associated with lightning events in some parts of the world and that lightning strike when and where it will. Various lightning protection principles were discussed. The essence of lightning protection device is to prevent lightning strikes from taking place over or around an installation or structure

    Mathematical Modelling of Bloch NMR to Explain the Rashba Energy Features

    The Bloch NMR as an analytical tool was able to address the fundamental features in the learning of spintronics. Beside confirming past assertions on the Rashba spin-orbit interaction, thermal motion of hole and electron spin and features of the quantum well, it was also able to explain the condition necessary for Rashba splitting within the quantum well. When the Rashba energy is 43 meV, it modified the Ehrenfest’s theorem to hold for an external magnetic field. The confinement potential which is the strength of the Rashba spin-orbit interaction was shown to be controlled magneti-cally

    Theoretical Forecast of the Health Implications of Citing Nuclear Power Plant in Nigeria

    Uranium is vital to nuclear power generation. Its hazard is a formidable threat to life forms. A small portion of a regional land mass - not known for uranium mining was analyzed to examine the risk of future environmental pollution when the proposed nuclear plant is cited in the country. The bye product of the spot deposition of uranium over the environs of Ewekoro was theoretically examined. Though the radioactive pollution within the region is normal compared to other regions of Nigeria, constructing a nuclear power plant without acknowledging the radioactive data could be suicidal for the life forms in any part of the country

    Monitoring and Prediction of Earthquakes using Simulated Temperature Deviation Curve Model

    The use of thermal anomaly to monitor or predict earthquakes has shown little success. Various methods have been propounded to monitor earthquakes with little emphasis on fundamental soil quantities. This paper propounded a vital factor- soil density ratio which can be used to monitor earthquakes. The magnitude of earthquakes was discovered to increase when the soil bulk density decreases very low. The dynamics of the heat flow was also discussed with respect to the soil density ratio. The importance of the temperature deviation curve to predict both short term and long term earthquakes were discussed with respect to time

    A Model for Analyzing Temperature Profiles in Pipe Walls and Fluids Using Mathematical Experimentation

    Get PDF
    Temperature profiling in both fluid and pipe walls had not been explained theoretically.The equations of energy balance and heat conductivity were queried by introducing known parameters to solve heat transfer using virtual mathematical experimentation. This was achieved by remodeling Poiseuille’s equation. Distribution of temperature profiles between pipe wall, fluid flow, and surrounding air was investigated and validated upon comparison with experimental results. A new dimensionless parameter (unified number (U)) was introduced with the aim of solving known errors of the Reynolds and Nusselts number

    Predicting volcanic eruption and magmatic transports is a global research. In this study, the tem� perature deviation curve model and temperature polynomial expansion scheme was used to calculate the time�scale of an active pre�eruption process. Satellite imagery within the timescale was harvested to further corroborate the findings

    Modeling of Generic Air Pollution Dispersion Analysis from Cement Factory

    Get PDF
    Air pollution from cement factory is classified as one of the sources of air pollution. The control of the air pollution by addressing the wind field dynamics was the main objective of the paper. The dynamics of dispersion showed a three way flow which was calculated and explained accordingly. The 3D model showed good level of accuracy by determining field values of air deposited pollutants. Mean concentration of diffusing pollutants was shown to be directly proportional to the plume angular displacement. The 2D model explained the details of the wind field dynamics and proffers a solution which may be relevant in controlling air pollution from anthropogenic source
