Increasing demand in energy facilitated the need of clean energy such as wind energy. Residences, buildings and commercial sites needs more power, but also continuous power. Important facilities such as wireless or radio sets requires small amount of energy, but with a continuous supply. This project was done to design and construct a vertical axis wind turbine for small scale use. After an introduction about the historical background of wind turbine, the report deals with a more accurate analysis of the main type of vertical axis wind turbine, showing their characteristics, advantages and disadvantages, differences between vertical axis wind turbine and horizontal axis wind turbine and their operations. The parameter of the wind turbines was discussed and the generators (stator) that can be used to connect the wind mill to the electricity grid are reported as well. Several statistics are also presented, in order to explain how the development of the wind energy in Nigeria. Results from trials shows that as the speed increases, there is increase in voltage and this in turn implies a watt change at different speeds. This also implies that when there is high wind, there is a higher rpm. The turbine fulfilled all specifications such as efficiency above 80%, 33Watt output power and likewise the capacity is adequate for its purpose and was proven to be efficient in generation of current.

This is a research paper focused on assessing experienced project managers/senior engineer’s perceptions of managing various project issues relating to a proposed underground radioactive waste storage DGF project in the UK. This empirical inquiry utilised an interpretive perspective. The scope for this research were project managers/senior engineers who were registered Chartered Engineers and experienced in managing deep civil engineering projects. The discrete population for this study was made up of individual managers/senior engineer’s (19) presently located on multiple, independent sites, and a total of 11 managers/senior engineers were determined as the resultant sample frame. The outcomes consisted of six (6) main themes, namely: Managerial, Technical Capability, Process, Costs, Project Administration, and Environmental Issues; and twenty (20) sub-themes raised from a literature embedded question. Very little management research, if any, has been conducted in this extremely provocative area and the paper exposes profound concerns relating to aspects of the management, which is academically unexplored in today’s demanding international nuclear civil engineering environment.

This paper describes the crucial role of Multimedia in our lives, one of the most important new technologies that we use daily. This paper explains the role and the effect of using Multimedia in education, business and learning. Consequently, this paper is evaluated and developed by using articles, online journals and primary data collection tools for gathering valuable information about the importance of Multimedia. In modern world, technological advancement leads to discover the powerful application of Multimedia. Internet and Social media have significant contribution to improve Multimedia. As the unstructured data in form of images and pictures are increasing at a rapid speed, Multimedia is helpful to convert the data into information. This paper is going to help people to expand their knowledge and information about Multimedia and its strong influences on business and education. The paper shows how technological innovation can be used by external stakeholders to direct and promote innovation in business.

Current methodologies in displaying dynamic organic frameworks regularly need fathomability, particularly for users without scientific foundation. In this paper propose another way to deal with defeat such confinements by joining the graphical representation gave by the utilization of Petri nets with the demonstrating of flow by effective yet natural fuzzy logic based frameworks. We build a fuzzy reasoning Petri net (FRPN) model for the genetic regulatory network of the lac operon of E. coli bacterium. Depending on the FPN formalism is a decent other option to mathematical equations that require dynamic parameter qualities and better than Boolean Formalism which naturally sets control as "on" or "off" guidelines. The lac operon has been considered as a model framework for comprehension the molecular biology of gene expression with considered to its regulation. We approve our formal model via programmed checking a progression of characteristics that are known for the control of the lactose. In this way, we demonstrate the feasibility of utilizing FRPN to design and reason about biochemical systems.

This research deals with the design and implementation of an improved e-learning system taking Computer Science Unit, Mathematics Department of Usmanu Danfodiyo University, Sokoto as the case study. It allows upload of learning materials online and give room for one-on-one interaction with the lecturer by creating an avenue for the students to ask questions and get their answers online. The system is aimed at being user-friendly, reliable and improved with better specifications. The e-learning system is designed using HTML, CSS, PHP, Ajax, and MySQL. To ensure proper interaction between students and lecturers, this proposed system incorporate audio calls to lecturers through Skype and also video conferencing through webinar (Web Based Seminar); a software that enables lecturers deliver lecture live. It gives the system the ability to give, receive, and discuss information in real time.

Parshall flume provides economical and flexible water measurement capabilities for a wide variety of open channel flow situations. The advantages of this structure include minimal head loss, low construction cost, adaptability to a variety of channel types and ability to measure wide ranges of flow with custom-designed structure. In this study, head measurements of a stream behind mass communication department, Nnamdi Azikiwe, University were taken using a fabricated 6-inch Parshall flume for five days. The flow rate of the stream was computed with a Parshall flume equation. The results achieved shows that the model has good ability to estimate flow rate passing through the fabricated Parshall. When compared with the free flow calibration table for Parshall flumes, the two results were in good agreement. Flow rates computed by the fabricated 0.1524m Parshall flume have a slight difference of 0.00002m3/s – 0.00018m3/s, with that of the free flow calibration. The average error in the estimation of flow rate between them was 0.0032 (0.32%) with a head loss of 0.0348m.
