An architectural tour of our rural areas around the world showcases unique expressions of cultural identity through our buildings, spatial layouts, and decorations, often overshadowed in urban environments; Chad is no exception. Authors present their strategies for promoting local identities. In Chad, the architect-urban planner Senoussi Ahmat Senoussi oversees the women of Gaoui as they enhance their techniques in earthen decoration. Also, the architect ROGER Boriata studied the variation of tr...

In the current research work, attempt was made to evaluate the tail pipe exhaust CO emission deviations through cerium oxide (CeO₂) nano particle involvement in Madhuca indica biodiesel (MIB). The Madhuca indica biodiesel is extracted from the seeds of the corresponding plant, and then it is processed to derive the biodiesel. The derived biodiesel is then blended with the normal diesel fuel with different propositions. The amount of CO emission percentage variation of the biodiesel bl...

This study compared Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) and Optical Motion Capture (OMC) systems in measuring peak ankle angles and Range of Motion (ROM) during Countermovement Jumps (CMJ) and Lateral Skater Jumps (LSJ). Data during these agility movements were analyzed and the ankle angles in pitch, roll, and yaw for the IMU were determined using algorithms which integrated gyroscope data, aligned it with foot flat reference, and fused it with accelerometer-derived inclination angles using a comple...

The Design of Experiments (DOE) approach is a way of applying statistics to experimentation in a methodical manner. Because experimenting is so common in industries, most engineers (and scientists) end up analyzing their trials with statistics. Although there is a general set of rules and processes for performing the design of experiments (DOE), the literature lacks a recommended course of action for identifying and selecting the optimal design of experiments from a vast number of viable designs...

An analysis is conducted on eleven governorates in Oman to assess the environmental and financial advantages of implementing a solar hot water system. The conservation of natural gas is measured by comparing it to the absorption of solar energy on a daily, monthly, and yearly basis. The study considers the monetary value of natural gas and the duration required to recover the initial investment in order to evaluate the environmental and economic benefits. Muscat realises its maximum capabilities...
