Groundwater Potential Of Akpugo In Nkanu Area Enugu, Southeastern Nigeria

Abstract: Groundwater potential at Akpugo and environs in Nkanu West Local Government Area of Enugu State has been undertaken in order to determine the groundwater status in the area. It lies on latitudes 060 2010011N to 0602510011N and longitudes 0070 3410011 to 00703910011E with an areal extent of about 86.49km2, over three geological units. A total of Twenty-five (25) vertical electrical sounding (VES) were acquired to determine the groundwater potential of the study area. Contour variatio...

GRANOMETRIC AND MORPHOMETRY ANALYSIS OF SANDSTONE DEPOSITED WITHIN AWKUNANAW AND ENVIRONS IN ENUGU AREA SOUTHEASTERN, NIGERIA

ABSTRACT: An intensive field mapping covering a total of nineteen locations was carried on. This study aimed at determining the geology and depositional environments of sandstone deposited within Awkunanaw and environs in Enugu area. Based on litho-facies the study area is underlain by five lithological units. Integrated granometric (textural analysis) was carried out on eight (8) friable sandstone samples collected from two locations based on their stratigraphic positions. An application of...

Design and Implementation of a Computer Based Payroll System

Abstract This project work ‘Design and implementation of computer based payroll system’ is aimed at creating a computer based payroll system. payroll is a critical operation for every organization to pay employee accurately their salary and enrollments on time. The idea of taking control of employees pay calculations are quite tedious if done manually and require more effort and time mainly for big organizations. Hence if this process is automated, it would be of great benefit as it would...

Fine-grained Magnetoelectric Sr0.5Ba0.5Nb2O6–CoFe2O4 Composites Synthesized by a Straightforward One-pot Method

https://doi.org/10.1016/j.matchemphys.2021.125616._ Magnetoelectric (Sr0.5Ba0.5Nb2O6)1-x(CoFe2O4)x (x = 0.2–0.6) composites were prepared by a one-pot softchemistry synthesis using PEG400. Calcining at 700 ◦C resulted in nanocrystalline composite powders (dcryst. = 24–30 nm) which were sintered between 1050 and 1200 ◦C to ceramic bodies with relative densities up to 98%. SEM investigations confirm the formation of composite ceramics with a 0–3 connectivity and variable grain sizes f...

Data Mining Application for Determining Student’s Academic Performance (A Case Study of Kwara State Polytechnic, Ilorin)

ABSTRACT The project mainly focused on developing an application for information extract or retrieval from pool of data (i.e. a large database) to form basis for decision making. Information extracted from the database in the course of data mining process can be presented in graphical format in form of graphs patterns, histogram, etc. and also in text format. The reason for suggesting the project is the need for employing computer software medium for sanitizing academic standard through compu...

The application can record crime, report crime, search fo...

Proforma on Student's Academic Performance

CH INTRODUCTION 1.1       Background to the Study Instructional material is a term frequently heard and discussed among educational technologists today. Unless clearly defined, the term can alternatively mean the development of computer-based hardware and software packages produced on a mass scale and yet allow individualized use and learning. In essence, instructional materials merge multiple levels of learning into an educational tool that allows for diversity in curricula present...

Survey on Thread Sensitivity in Static Analysis

Abstract Multithreaded program’s popularity has been increased due to their efficient parallel computations and their structuring mechanisms. Multithreading has a considerable advantage when compared to the multithreaded programs for large servers. Due to the increasing state-space exponentially, multithreading programs are very hard to write. Static analysis can be applied to the programs to find the faults and errors in the software without its code execution. It is difficult to find the ...
