This project centers on addressing the issue of the lack of research and development in Nigeria, in this case, looking into the firefighting and emergency sector. In this industry, the safety of the firefighters is of paramount importance as it is only then that they can fully carry out their duties and tasks. Of all the products that... Continue Reading

Industrial drive applications are generally classified into constant-speed and variable-speed drives. Traditionally, AC machines have been used in constant-speed applications and DC machines were preferred for variable-speed. Induction machine with drive systems are widely used in applications such as pumps, paper and textile mills,... Continue Reading

The power system is a highly nonlinear system that operates in a constantly changing environment; loads, generator outputs, voltage controllers, transmission lines, topology, and key operating parameters change continually. The behavior and output of the generators can be affected in a transient conditions. This transient condition can change the... Continue Reading

The conversion of an input AC power at a given frequency and voltage to an output power at different frequency and voltage can be obtained with static circuits called power converters, containing controllable power electronic devices. Various power converters have been developed to fulfill the requirements of the wind power generation.... Continue Reading

Commutation failures are very frequent dynamic events in high voltage dc (HVDC) transmission systems. Commutation failure is mostly observed at the inverter side of HVDC links, where large firing angles are used. The minimum value of the extinction angle required for the proper operation of a valve is specified by the valve manufacturer; however,... Continue Reading

Malaria merozoite surface protein 1 (MSP1) is cleaved in an essential step during erythrocyte invasion. The responses of children to natural malaria infection included antibodies that inhibit this cleavage and others that block the binding of these inhibitory antibodies. There was no correlation between the titer of the antibody to the 19-kDa... Continue Reading
