the problem of a footing on slope is encountered regularly in engineering practice, with some noteworthy examples being bridge abutments and basement excavations. in this paper, the bearing capacity of a footing replaced near a slope crest was studied. model tests were carried out using square model footing of 100 mm width. a tank 0.3 m deep, 0.6 m wide, and 0.9 m long was used for the model be...

The growth and yield of cucumber in response to the effect poultry manure inorganic fertilizer (NPK 20:10:10) was evaluated at Teaching Research farm Kogi State University Anyigba, Nigeria during 2021 raining season. Treatment consisted which applied 0, 7.5 15t/ha 20:10:10), rate 0.2, 0.4 0.6t/ha respectively. experiment laid a Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with three replicates follo...

Artificial intelligence is becoming ubiquitous in our daily life. With increased intelligence, equipment can be made more efficient and more adaptive to changes in its environment. Still, the intelligence of machines is quite weak, and even if there exist vacuum cleaners that vacuums on their own and cars that have intelligent systems that compensate for different weather types this kind of int...

Natural scenes contain rich stochastic motion patterns which are characterized by the movement of a large number of small elements, such as falling snow, raining, ÿying birds, þrework and waterfall. In this paper, we call these motion patterns textured motion and present a generative method that combines statistical models and algorithms from both texture and motion analysis. The generative met...

Soiling of PV modules is an issue causing non-negligible losses on power plants, between 3 and 4% the total energy production. Cleaning most common way to mitigate soiling. The impact cleaning activity can be significant, both in terms cost resources consumption. For these reasons, it important monitor predict soiling profiles establish optimal schedule. Especially locations where raining irreg...
