A Synthesis and Optimization of Patented Direct Air Capture Technology
(2023)An engineering method termed direct air capture is used to take CO₂, the predominant global warming greenhouse gas, out of the atmosphere directly. Given that CO₂ levels in the air are only 0.04%, it presents a technical ... -
Performance of Steel Pipelines Backfilled with Controlled Low-Strength Material (CLSM) under Seismic Wave Propagation and Reverse-Slip Fault Rupture
(University of Missouri -- Kansas City, 2019)Seismic events may drastically damage buried pipelines affecting economy and public safety. Traditionally, buried pipelines are bedded and backfilled with compacted soils, which is labor intensive, time consuming, and ... -
Statistical Analysis of Resilience Distribution and Application to Rural Electric Distribution System subjected to Hurricane Wind
(2021)Several mathematical frameworks and models are proposed to quantify the resilience of power systems against hurricane events. However, these frameworks contribute to the urban area's large-scale transmission system or ... -
The Impact of Climate Variability and Land Cover Change on Groundwater Resources in The Niger River Basin
(2021)The Niger River Basin (NRB) has experienced severe droughts and floods under a significant change of the land use and land cover (LULC) with increasing population over the years. The present study is to understand the ...
