    Abstract: The outbreaks of infectious diseases have had a huge impact on the human society. Researchers have developed models aimed at understanding how various infectious diseases spread in communities and also proposed control measures that can minimize or stop the spread of the diseases. Most researchers have developed stochastic mathematical models which... Show More

    Abstract: Crude oil contaminated sites delineation by soil quality index (SQI) is presented. This study used SQI proposed by the Canadian Council of Ministers of the Environment (CCME) to delineate three genuinely petroleum-contaminated sites in the Niger Delta, Nigeria to prioritise sites to inform risk decision making and/or remediation. In assessing the p... Show More

    Abstract: Prestressed concrete poles nowadays are widely used in supporting the catenary cables of train systems. Compared to their importance to the functionality of the train system, this type of structures have not yet received adequate attention from researchers. We have started tracing the changes in the dynamic behavior of these poles caused by the tra... Show More
