Two fluid regions are usually created during either water or polymer injection into an oil reservoir for enhanced oil recovery. The two fluid regions create a composite reservoir system that requires analytical solution ...

The adhesive interactions between molecular recognition units (such as specific peptides and antibodies) and antigens or other receptors on the surfaces of tumours are of great value in the design of targeted nanoparticles ...

The study focuses on utilizing lignocellulose biomass (LCB) as a sustainable feedstock for biofuel production to address fossil fuel depletion, climate change, energy poverty, and environmental issues in Africa. With global ...

The work presents the results of an experimental and computational study of the effects of laser-induced heating provided by magnetite polymer-based nanocomposite structures that are being developed for the localized ...

Although there have been significant efforts in breast cancer treatment over the past many decades, current therapeutic approaches are limited by non-specific systemic distribution, inadequate drug concentrations reaching ...

Cancer is a disease that exists globally. Among women, breast cancer is most prevalent. Breast cancer exhibits different degrees of aggressiveness. Triple-Negative Breast Cancer (TNBC), which accounts for approximately ...

It is well known that many physically significant problems in different areas of research can be transformed at equilibrium state into an inclusion problem of the form 0 ∈ Au, where A is either a multi-valued accretive map ...

In this thesis, the problem of solving the equation of the form Au = 0, (0.0.1) where A is a nonlinear map (either mapping a Banach space, E to itself or mapping E to its dual, E ∗ ), is considered. This problem is desirable ...

Research in the use of biomass residues has a huge interest as their potentials span a wide range of applications. Processed residues are useful as green energy such as biofuel (pellets and briquettes), animal feed, ...

It is well known that many physically significant problems in different areas of research can be transformed at an equilibrium state into an inclusion problem of the form 0 ∈ Au, where A is either a multi-valued accretive ...

The increasing needs for clean and sustainable energy stimulate the growing interest in photovoltaic (PV) technology using organic-inorganic hybrid perovskite materials. However, perovskite solar cells (PSCs) are faced ...

Solar energy, with its abundance and availability, would ultimately replace dwindling fossil fuel reserves in this new era of cleaner and more efficient energy as the world surges on to new technologies and horizons. This ...

Let H1, H2, and H3 be real Hilbert spaces, T and S be non-linear maps defined on H1 and H2, respectively, and with non-empty fixed point sets, F ix(T) and F ix(S), respectively, A and B be linear maps respectively mapping ...

Let E be a q-uniformly smooth real Banach space and D be a nonempty, open and convex subset of E. Assume that T : D → CB(D) is a multi valued continuous (with respect to the Hausdorff metric), bounded and pseudo-contractive ...

This study presents the results of a combined theoretical, experimental and statistical study of the mechanical performance of stabilized lateritic soil for sustainable construction applications. The lateritic soil was ...

Pressure and contacts in materials and systems play crucial roles in their performance and also their eventual failures. Pressure application closes voids, bridges gaps and improves transport across interfaces. In thin ...

This thesis presents silica nanoparticles for the controlled release of AMACR-conjugated doxorubicin for the inhibition of prostate cancer cell growth. Inorganic MCM-41 silica nanoparticles were synthesized, functionalized ...

Of recent, individuals, community and government across the globe are embracing the ceramic water filters technology as a means of screening out chemicals and pathogens from water. This is to help reduce water related ...

These research works presents the results of a combined theoretical, experimental and statistical study of processing of composite carbon materials and solid electrolytes for supercapacitor energy storage The need for ...

Niobium and tantalum are transition metals with a refractory character and unique properties that make them highly indispensable to the high-technologies and clean-energy. The metals are normally extracted from minerals ...
