Investigations were carried out to determine the corrosion effect of sulphur-reducing bacteria on mild and medium carbon steels. Specimens were exposed to anaerobic, aerobic and distilled water environments. The corrosion rates were evaluated at intervals of seven days using weight loss and electro-chemical methods for a period of forty two days. The sp...
Many construction projects were completed without recourse to Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) during the feasibility studies. However EIA on completed municipal water supply project will provide a decision support framework for future projects and environmental protection of the municipal areas. This study examines and analyzes the level of of negativ...
In this paper, the application of concessional Fog driven Wide Area Network (CF-WAN) with low powered edge sensor nodes is deployed in Pipeline flow monitoring (PFM) design. Energy demand assumption in Fog-WAN is used reduce cost savings in battery powered nodes. CF-WAN using Internet of things (IoT) energy integration is a novel contribution introduced. ...
Cyber-Physical Security (CPS) challenges are becoming a growing global concern owing to various device-to human vulnerabilities in today’s world. Traditional methods of detecting bombs (e.g., spectroscopy-based techniques) and monitoring sensitive environments are still inefficient due to some lapses in their mode of operation. An invasive e-Nose surveilla...
