Performance enhancement of incoherent spectral amplitude encoding-optical code division multiple access (SAE-OCDMA) by using dispersion compensation fiber Bragg grating (FBG)
Incoherent spectral amplitude encoding optical code division multiple access (SAE-OCDMA) based on fiber Bragg grating (FBG) is one promising technique aim to improve local area networks to have longer span telecommunication network type. In this study, the performance enhancement incoherent SAE-OCDMA is achieved when a dispersion compensation fiber Bragg grating (DCFBG) and erbium doped fiber amplifier (EDFA) are used...

Geophysical assessment of potential hydrological units in hydrologically challenged geomaterials of Makurdi, Benue State, Nigeria
A geo-electric survey employing the Vertical Electrical Sounding (VES) was carried out in order to access the distributions of electrical and hydraulic parameters of hydro-geologic units in some locations of Makurdi where groundwater resources are difficult to tap. A total of fifteen geo-electric soundings were acquired. The contour maps were generated using the results. From the bulk aquifer resistivity and water...

Effect of tempering on the microstructure and mechanical properties of austenitic dual phase steel
This research is focused on the effect of tempering on the microstructure and mechanical properties of 0.23%C austenitic dual phase steel locally manufactured in Nigeria. The as-received steel was normalized in order to annul the thermo-mechanical history of the steel. Thereafter, some of the normalized samples were austenetized at 850°C for 30 min and then slowly cooled in the furnace to the (α+ϒ)...
