A study on the effect of sisal fibre and waste plastic strips on tropical black clay (also called Black cotton soil, BCS) was carried out. Tests piloted on the natural and treated soil consist of California bearing ratio (CBR), Atterberg limits and compaction for different percentages inclusion of sisal fibre (0, 0.5, 1, 1.5 and 2%) and waste plastic strips (0, 0.5, 1, 1.5 and 2%) by dry weight of soil. Results obtained showed that the liquid limit of BCS initially fluctuated between 43.4% and 55.9% at 1% sisal fibre content, then dropped to 49.4% at 2% sisal fibre content. In the case soil treated with waste plastic strips, liquid values increased from 43.4% for the natural soil to a highest value of 58% at 1% waste plastic strips and thereafter decreased to 49.15% at 2% waste plastic strips content. Plastic limit for both BCS-sisal fibre/ waste plastic strips initially decreased from its natural value of 25.78 to 15.55 and 14.77% when treated with sisal fibre and waste plastic strips respectively at 0.5% admixtures content. In the case of plasticity index, values initially increase from its natural value of 17.66% to peak values of 35.39 and 43.23% for sisal fibre and waste plastic strips treated soil respectively, and thereafter decreased. Maximum dry density (MDD) initially increased from 1.55 mg/m3 at 0%, to 1.60 mg/m3 at 0.5% and thereafter decreased to 1.53 mg/m3 at 2% of fibre content. In the case of samples treated with waste plastic strips. The MDD progressively increased as the amount of waste plastic strips increased. OMC show an overall trend of increase for BCS treated with sisal fibre, and a general trend of decrease for soil treated with waste plastic strips. The CBR values initially lessened from their natural value of 13.59% to 4.76% at 1% sisal fibre and subsequently increased to 10.57% at 2% sisal fibre. Similar behaviour was observed for soil modified with waste plastic strips. Based on the results, BCS/waste plastic strips improved the soil more than BCS/sisal fibre treated soil and is recommended at optimal 2% waste plastic strips for geotechnical engineering application such as road payment.

By varying adsorbate concentration, temperature, contact time, pH, and adsorbent weight, the capacity of non-modified (NM) and modified (M) sawdust adsorbents to adsorb Ni2+ ions were studied in this work. The adsorption of Ni (II) ions rose as the adsorbent weight increased but reduced as the adsorbate concentration increased. Adsorption was greatest at pH 6, with the NM and M adsorbents removing 95.09 and 96.95% of Ni2+ ions, respectively. The highly dependent nature of the percent removal on operational variables was established by employing Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) as well as the Bonferroni-Holm Posthoc statistical test relationship significance. It was discovered that the NM and M sawdust are adequate adsorbents in removing Ni2+ cations from its solution. Freundlich, Langmuir, Temkin and Dubinin Raduschkevich (DR) isotherms were applied to match the sorption data. The adsorption of the two biosorbents was best characterized by the Freundlich isotherm model. Chemisorption was suspected based on the energy values obtained from the Temkin and DR isotherms. The second order kinetics best fit both the NM and M adsorption activities. The ability to absorb Ni (II) ions is impressive.

Herein, the synthesis and characterization of a bentonite-supported Fe-Co-Ni trimetallic nanocatalyst applied in transesterification reaction was reported. The synthesized heterogeneous catalyst was used to investigate the production of biodiesel by varying the reaction parameters using Box-Behnken design response surface methodology (RSM-BBD). An optimum biodiesel yield of 95.2 % was obtained at methanol to oil ratio of 10:1, reaction time of 2 hours, reaction temperature of 55 and catalyst concentration of 5 % (w/w of the oil). The biodiesel produced was later analysed using GC-MS analysis and the results shows a fatty acid methyl esters (FAME) profile that confirms the presence of biodiesel.

The paper addresses the comparative analytical determination of thermal insulation behavior for various experimental models made of stratified and hybrid biocomposites of ligno-cellulose nature. The analytical determination of the thermal resistance and the overall thermal insulation coefficient for each experimental model is performed using the calculation methodology for energy efficiency. The results obtained after the analysis of the thermal insulation behavior for the biocomposite panels highlighted the fact that they have thermal insulation properties with high values for thermal resistance and global thermal insulation coefficients.

Many areas of activity face the problem of electricity quality. At the same time, diagnosing the quality of the energy provided makes it possible to identify and remedy problems that have arisen in the system. Advanced signal processing techniques and the use of advanced systems allow for a complex analysis of the phenomenon. The paper presents an electricity meter equipped with an electricity quality analysis system. It was developed based on the Xilinx Artix-7 programmable logic matrix. A Digilent Arty A7 development board was used due to its design and experimentation facilities. The developed system determines the power consumed and the main elements that define the quality of electricity: harmonics and other deviations from the frequency of nominal power supply, flicker, voltage gaps, voltage variations, transient surge, temporary surge, etc. The possibility of using an embedded system equipped with the Microblaze soft microprocessor, the existence of a 12-bit analog-digital converter and the maximum sampling frequency of 1 MSPS and the possibility of assisted design allows to obtain a measurement system with superior characteristics. The results obtained and the experiments carried out confirm the expected performance for the electricity meter.

The paper presents how to determine the partial and global cutting capacity (CC) based on technological evaluation criteria (sustainability, specific energy consumption, cutting forces, roughness) and technical economic criteria (grinding productivity and cost). The theoretical-experimental model that allows the determination of the global CC for diamond discs takes into account the specific features of these super abrasive tools and the cutting process for flat grinding of hard mineral materials granite and basalt. Also, are presented the characteristics of diamond discs, the experimental stand and the factorial plans used in the experimental part.

The Texas Instruments microcontrollers in the MSP 430 series offer four ways to save power in operation in such a way as to allow for consistent reduction of the electricity consumed. Code Composer Studio programming environment also provides support in making low-power applications. In addition to these, the MSP430FR2433 microcontroller with ferroelectric RAM allows data to be stored even in the absence of power voltage. In view of these properties of the microcontroller, a data logger application has been developed to monitor the quality of the environment in a building. Given that the MSP430FR2433 microcontroller can process both analog and numerical signals, the device monitors the temperature, humidity, carbon dioxide concentration and amount of light present in the enclosure. Thanks to energy-saving mechanisms and the possibility of keeping information for an indefinite period without the need for energy consumption, the ambient quality monitoring device can operate for a long time in places without energy resources. The device has also been tested with good results for autonomous operation using solar energy and has also been used to determine the energy performance of buildings.

Intelligence incorporated in many devices makes it easier to achieve self-balancing and autonomous driving in differential drive robot. Basically, differential drive robotic system describes an unstable, nonlinear system related to an inverted pendulum. The research attempts to harness the parameters obtained from a computer-aided design tool (Solid works) to model the system for complete stability control and dynamic motion of the system within a planned trajectory. A linearized dynamic equation is obtained for the overall system design of a mobile robot, and the linear quadratic regulator concept is adopted to obtain an optimum state feedback gain. The simulation results are obtained on MATLAB software interfaced with an Arduino board with deployable sensor technologies. Scenarios of disturbance would be simulated to ascertain the stability conditions of the system at static position or dynamic position. Signal analysis and computer vision techniques serve as leverage to make the design achievable. Localization and navigation referred to as tracking a planned trajectory or moving through paths filled with obstacles in a given space are also included.
