Using Database Management System Todevelop And Implement An Automated Vehicle Management System, Dr. Dipo Theophilus Akomolafe Mbcs, Mncs, Mcpn,, Naomi Timothy, Francis Ofere

Dr. Dipo Theophilus Akomolafe MBCS, MNCS, MCPN,

The automated motor vehicle management system is a system developed for managing the movement of vehicles in and out of an organization. Presently, movemnts of vehicles in most organisations are handled manually bythe security officials that are stationed at the gates. This system is associated with mismanaged data, inaccurate data or no data at all in some instances. Consequently, it is imperative to develop a computerized system to manage data taken from the large number of vehicles that move in and out of organisations in order to deal with cases of theft, proper monitoring of people and vehicles and to …

The Fifth Function Of University: “Neutrosophic E-Function” Of Communication-Collaboration-Integration Of University In The Information Age, Florentin Smarandache, Stefan Vladutescu

Branch Mathematics and Statistics Faculty and Staff Publications

The study is based on the following hypothesis with practical foundation: - Premise 1 - if two members of university on two continents meet on the Internet and initiate interdisciplinary scientific communication; - Premise 2 - subsequently, if within the curricular interests they develop an academic scientific collaboration; - Premise 3 - if the so-called collaboration integrates the interests of other members of the university; - Premise 4 - finally, if the university allows, accepts, validates and promotes such an approach; - Conclusion: then it means the university as a system (the global academic system) has, and it is, exerting …

Modelling The Rejection Of N-Nitrosamines By A Spiral-Wound Reverse Osmosis System: Mathematical Model Development And Validation, Takahiro Fujioka, Stuart J. Khan, James A. Mcdonald, Annalie Roux, Yvan Poussade, Jorg E. Drewes, Long D. Nghiem

SMART Infrastructure Facility - Papers

A mathematical model was developed based on the irreversible thermodynamic principle and hydro- dynamic calculation to predict the rejection of N-nitrosamines by spiral-wound reverse osmosis (RO) membrane systems. The developed model is able to accurately describe the rejection of N-nitrosamines under a range of permeate flux and system recovery conditions. The modelled N-nitrosamine rejections were in good agreement with values obtained experimentally using a pilot-scale RO filtration system. Simulation from the model revealed that an increase in permeate flux from10 to 30L/m2h led to an increase in the rejection of low molecular weight N-nitrosamines such as N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) (from31% to …

Magnetic Transitions And The Magnetocaloric Effect In The Pr 1-Xyxmn2ge2 System, Jianli Wang, S J. Campbell, M F. Md Din, S J. Kennedy, M Hofmann

Australian Institute for Innovative Materials - Papers

Layered rare earth compounds in the RMn2X2 series (R = rare-earth; X = Ge, Si) are of interest for potential cooling applications at lower temperatures as they enable the structural and magnetic behavior to be controlled via substitution of R, Mn, and X atoms on the 2a, 4d, and 4e sites respectively. We continue investigations of the Pr1−xYxMn2Ge2 magnetic phase diagram as functions of both composition and Mn-Mn spacing using X-ray and neutron diffraction, magnetization and differential scanning calorimetry measurements. Pr1−xYxMn2Ge2 exhibits an extended region of re-entrant ferromagnetism around x ∼ 0.5 with re-entrant ferromagnetism at inline image for Pr0.5Y0.5Mn2Ge2. …

Synthesis Of Potential Theranostic System Consisting Of Methotrexate-Immobilized (3-Aminopropyl)Trimethoxysilane Coated Α-Bi2o3 Nanoparticles For Cancer Treatment, Kathrin Bogusz, Moeava Tehei, Callum Stewart, Marjorie Mcdonald, Dean Cardillo, Michael Lerch, Stephanie Corde, Anatoly Rosenfeld, Hua-Kun Liu, Konstantin Konstantinov

Australian Institute for Innovative Materials - Papers

In this study we present the synthesis of a new theranostic system consisting of a core-shell structured nanoceramic-drug conjugate that can potentially combine chemotherapeutic, targeting, diagnostic and radio dose enhancing features in cancer treatment. The conjugate is made of α-Bi2O3 nanoparticles (NPs) which were first coated with (3-aminopropyl)trimethoxysilane (APTMS) to form a core-shell structure and then attached with methotrexate (MTX) through amidation between the amine moieties on the shell and the carboxylic acid groups on MTX. While α-Bi2O3 NPs with high effective atomic number can serve as both contrast agent and radiosensitiser in dose enhancement radiation therapy, MTX as an …

Integrating A Triplet-Triplet Annihilation Up-Conversion System To Enhance Dye-Sensitized Solar Cell Response To Sub-Bandgap Light, Andrew Nattestad, Yuen Yap Cheng, R Macqueen, Gordon G. Wallace, Timothy Schmidt

Australian Institute for Innovative Materials - Papers

The poor response of dye-sensitized solar cells (DSCs) to red and infrared light is a significant impediment to the realization of higher photocurrents and hence higher efficiencies. Photon up-conversion by way of triplet-triplet annihilation (TTA-UC) is an attractive technique for using these otherwise wasted low energy photons to produce photocurrent, while not interfering with the photoanodic performance in a deleterious manner. Further to this, TTA-UC has a number of features, distinct from other reported photon up-conversion technologies, which renders it particularly suitable for coupling with DSC technology. In this work, a proven high performance TTA-UC system, comprising a palladium porphyrin …

Dielectron Azimuthal Anisotrophy At Mid-Rapidity In Au+Au Collisions At √ˢᶰᶰ = 200 Gev, L. Adamczyk, J. K. Adkins, G. Agakishiev, S. Bültmann, I Koralt, Star Collaboration

Physics Faculty Publications

We report on the first measurement of the azimuthal anisotropy v₂ of dielectrons (e⁺e^- pairs) at mid-rapidity from √ˢᶰᶰ = 200 GeV Au + Au collisions with the STAR detector at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC), presented as a function of transverse momentum p_T for different invariant-mass regions. In the mass region M_ee < 1.1 GeV/c² the dielectron v₂measurements are found to be consistent with expectations from π⁰, η, ω, and Φ decay contributions. In the mass region 1.1 < M_ee < 2.9 GeV/c², the measured dielectron v₂is consistent, within experimental …

Exclusive Πᵒ Electroproduction At W > 2 Gev With Clas, I. Bedlinskiy, K. P. Adhikari, L. El Fassi, A. Klein, S. E. Kuhn, Clas Collaboration

Physics Faculty Publications

Exclusive neutral-pion electroproduction (ep → e'p'π⁰ was measured at Jefferson Lab with a 5.75-GeV electron beam and the CLAS detector. Differential cross sections d⁴σ/dtdQ²dx_BdΦ_π and structure functions σ_T+ ϵσ_L, σ_TT, and σ_LT as functions of t were obtained over a wide range of Q² and x_B. The data are compared with Regge and handbag theoretical calculations. Analyses in both frameworks find that a large dominance of transverse processes is necessary to explain the experimental results. For the Regge analysis it is found …

J/Ψ Production At Low Pᵀ In Au + Au And Cu + Cu Collisions At √ˢᴺᴺ = 200 Gev With The Star Detector, L. Adamczyk, J. K. Adkins, G. Agakishiev, S. Bültmann, I. Koralt, Star Collaboration

Physics Faculty Publications

The J/ψ p_T spectrum and nuclear modification factor (R_AA) are reported for p_T < 5 GeV/c and |y| < 1 from 0% to 60% central Au + Au and Cu + Cu collisions at √ˢᴺᴺ = 200 GeV at STAR. A significant suppression of p_T - integrated J/ψ production is observed in central Au + Au events. The Cu + Cu data are consistent with no suppression, although the precision is limited by the available statistics. R_AA in Au + Au collisions exhibits a strong suppression at low transverse momentum and gradually increases with p_T. The data are compared to high-p_T STAR results and previously published BNL Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider results. Comparing with model calculations, it is found that the invariant yields …
