ABSTRACT Attempt was made to produce wood pellets from sawdust using locally sourced binders as an alternative binder, to wood lignin which is a natural binding agent. Wood pellets were produced by manual moulding with starch concentration of cassava and potato starch as the process variable. Results show similar behavior between pellets bonded by cassava, and potato starch, But differs slightly in the case of calorific value and smoke analysis, it shows that smouldering produce the highes...
ABSTRACTCarbon –U (C-11) radiotracers are widely used for the early diagnosis of cancer, monitoring therapeutic response to cancer treatment and pharmacokinetic investigations of anticancer drugs. PET imagining permits non-invasive monitoring of metabolic processes and molecular targets, while carbon-II radiotracers allow a “hot-for cold” substitution of biological active molecules. Advance in organic synthetic chemistry and radiochemistry as well as improved automated techniques for ra...
ABSTRACTThis project “COLLEGE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM” deals with the maintenance of all college information starting from the principal to the students.CMS is an automation system, which is used to store the departments, student, courses and other information of a college. Starting from registration of a new student in the department, it maintains all the details regarding the courses offered, staff members, bursary etc. The project deals with retrieval of information through an INTRANET base...
ABSTRACT This study proposes and analyzes a non-linear mathematical model for the dynamics of HIV/AIDS with treatment and vertical transmission. The equilibrium points of the model system are found and their stability is investigated. The model exhibits two equilibria namely, the disease-free and the endemic equilibrium. It is found that if the basic reproduction number R0 1, the disease-free equilibrium is always locally asymptotically stable and in such a case the endemic equilibrium doe...
ABSTRACT. In this paper, we present and analyze a cholera epidemiological model with control measures incorporated. This model is extended from the one proposed in [16] by including the effects of vaccination, therapeutic treatment, and water san- itation. Equilibrium analysis is conducted in the case with con- stant controls for both epidemic and endemic dynamics. Opti- mal control theory is applied to seek cost-effective solution of multiple time-dependent intervention strategies against ...
ABSTRACT This project proposes a non – linear mathematical model to study the effect of irresponsible infected immigrants on the spread of HIV/AIDS in a heterogeneous population with a constant recruitment of susceptible. The equilibrium points, stability analysis and numerical simulation on the model are presented. It is realised that at the disease – free equilibrium, the model is stable when the basic reproduction number R0
ABSTRACT In this paper, a non–linear mathematical model is proposed to study the effects of irresponsible infected immigrants on the spread of HIV/AIDS in a heterogeneous population with a constant recruitment of susceptible receptors. Theequilibrium points, stability analysis, and numerical solution on the model are presented. The Routh–Hurwitz stability condition was employed to examine the stability of the disease– free equilibrium and Next Generation matrix was adopted to g...

Abstract Pattern recognition is seen as a major challenge within the field of data mining and knowledge discovery. For the work in this paper, we have analyzed a range of widely used algorithms for finding frequent patterns with the purpose of discovering how these algorithms can be used to obtain frequent patterns over large transactional databases. This has been presented in the form of a comparative study of the following algorithms: Apriori algorithm, Frequent Pattern (FP) Growth algorith...
Abstract Concepts like gentelligent products, smart objects or cyber-physical systems have already proven a high potential especially for decentralized production planning and control. In this context, decentralized communication, new sensor technologies and the increased application of simulation and monitoring systems lead to an enormous increase of manufacturing data. Additionally, a new approach for the assessment of manufacturing quality based on process signals from the machine tool is ...
ABSTRACT Despite more than 100 years of research since the discovery of malaria parasite in human blood, it still remains one of the most common vector-borne diseases widespread in tropical and subtropical regions and constituting a major global health problem. This deadly parasitic disease is caused by the plasmodial parasite species which is vectored by female Anopheles mosquito and can be transmitted to people of all ages. From Quinine to Artemisinin Combination Therapy (ACT), antimalarial...
ABSTRACT The Employee Human Resource Management and Payroll System is an integrated system that encompasses managing all resources associated to employee such as recruitment details, payment and issues pertaining employee records processing. It is develop to eradicate the errors emanating from manual processing of staff record. Moreover, it provide employee Bio data, staff voucher preparation. TABLE OF CONTENT Title �...
ABSTRACTThe option of using microbes in the remediation of polluted sited have received wide acceptance due to its sustainability and environmental friendliness. This study is aimed at using the kinetic parameters (Vmax and Km) to assess the effect of organic and inorganic nitrogen sources on the performance of Pseudomonas sp., during the remediation of crude oil polluted sites. The rate of crude oil breakdown was assessed by determining the total petroleum hydrocarbon in the soil (after cont...
ABSTRACT In order to search for alternative control methods to synthetic pesticides, the potential of essential oils from Allium sativum (L.) (Alliaceae); was evaluated as fumigants against Callosobruchus maculatus (fab.) (Coleoptera: Bruchidae), a pest that attacks pulses during storage. Chickpea seeds were infested with 10 pairs of newly emerged weevils and, fumigated with 0, 1, 2, 3, or 4μl of essential oils of garlic/l of air. The essential oils of garlic were analyzed by GC-MS. The majo...
