This study utilized fractal disk dimension characterization to investigate the system response of a nonlinear, harmonically driven pendulum of mass, m (or weight. W) and length I over a well-defined parameter plane of excitation amplitude versus damping factor. The system response was simulated at three drive ffequencies (symbol,*) of 1/3, 2/3 and 313. A Runge-Kutta fourth order algorithm, coded in FORTRAN programming language was used to simulate the System response over a 101 by 101 para...

ABSTRACT The traditional method, De Saint-Venant theory which was used in the previous analysis of thin-walled structures assumed free warping of all thin-walled structures, which is very rare in engineering. In this research work, Vlasov’s torsion theory which incorporates restraint warping was employed in the analysis of box culvert. The incorporation of restraint warping by Vlasov made the equation for computing angle of twist extremely rigorous as compared to Saint Venant’s equati...
CHAPTER ONE INTRODUCTION 1.1BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY The importance of computer cannot be over emphasized with respect to designing and implementation in text editing package which could be in sciences, engineering, business or government etc. Consequently, computers are becoming indispensable. This is obviously true in developed countries; like Nigeria is gradually being gravitated into computer oriented society with professional engineers, analyst, design and implementation of some pa...
CHAFTER ONE INTRODUCTION 1.1 BACKGRUOND TO THE STUDY According to (Oyediran & Odusami, 2005). The explosive growth of the information andcommunication technology (ICT) has gained unquantified impact on business systemsand processes. However, global acceptance and widespread adoption of ICT hasaccelerated the dimensions of competition not only among organizations globally butamong professions locally. (Ashworth et al, 2007). Also noted that the use of ...
Most cities in Africa characteristically experience peak time traffic due to the commuter lifestyles of urban area residents. Therefore, in the morning roads leading to the central business district of most towns experience congestion while those leading out tend to have free flows. Traditional methods of solving this congestion problem such as additional roadway capacity have proved to be ineffective and overly expensive. Therefore, Solution of this kind of traffic congestion problem calls f...
A methodology is provided for the application of Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) to automated solar photovoltaic (PV) deployment analysis on the regional scale. Challenges in urban information extraction and management for solar PV deployment assessment are determined and quantitative solutions are offered. This paper provides the following contributions: (i) a methodology that is consistent with recommendations from existing literature advocating the integration of cross-disciplinary com...

Swine enterprise is one of the best options to choose when investing in livestock production, but has been suffering a big neglect due to lack of awareness and ignorance on the part of investors in most developing countries including Nigeria. Everything about swine enterprise depends on how they are managed as they do not demand much financially for their labour, feeding, housing and equipment selection and for other basic needs as compared to other livestock enterprise. Therefore, due to the...

Computer n ts applications have become indispensable vital tools in economic, industrial and social development of the advanced countries of the w...
Amplifiers, which are devices that increase the gain of an audio signal, dominate modern audio technologies. In this project, we designed and built an audio amplifier from scratch in order to demonstrate that such a key device can be constructed using basic electrical engineering principles.After performing major circuit calculations by hand, we modeled our circuit in PSpice, which is computer software that analyzes electrical circuits. In particular, we studied the variance that using budget...
