Exploring the Ettingshausen Effect: Magnetothermoelectric Transport in Graphene Nanoribbons and Iron-Carbon Alloys
Abstract: This study investigates the magnetothermoelectric effects, specifically the Ettingshausen effect, in graphene nanoribbons and iron-carbon alloys and explores their implications in plasma physics through self-similar modeling. The Ettingshausen effect, which involves the generation of a transverse heat current from a longitudinal charge current in the presence of a magnetic field, is analyzed using the Landauer-Büttiker formalism and nonequilibrium Green's function methods. Results reveal that in graphene nanoribbons, the Ettingshausen effect …

Study on the Root Cause of Fuel Tanker Truck Accidents in Nigeria: Reliability of Accidents Caused by Human Factors (HF)
Abstract: Accidents involving transportation of petroleum products by road are of high frequency in Nigeria, mainly because of overdependence on the tanker-truck system due to pipeline vandalism. We analyzed over 92 accidents involving tankers-trucks from 2014 to 2019. In this study, the analysis is done to examine the factors that caused the accident using accident records and petroleum distribution data from the Federal Road Safety Commission (FRSC). Petroleum tanker-truck accident reports …

Kinetic Model for Production of Carbon(iv)oxide (CO2) from Brewers Spent Grain Using Anaerobic Digester
Abstract: In this research paper, investigation studies were carried out to determine which model best predicts the amount of using the linear, power, growth rate decay, and non-elementary rate models, the kinetics of the biogas produced under the impact of biodegradation were explored. Carbon(iv)oxide was produced as a fraction of the biogas acquired from the experimental conditions. Either of the linear, power, growth rate decay, and non-elementary rate models can be …

High Performance Electrochemical Double Layer Capacitor (EDLC) Electrodes from Biomass Derived Carbon Materials †
Abstract: Insecurity and scarcity of resources lead to war and conflict as seen in Ukraine and Gaza. To prevent the dangerous effects of resource crises, especially, energy, it is imperative to invent energy sources at a war footing.The present review article is a serious attempt in that path. Super capacitors, especially, the electrochemical double layer capacitors (EDLCs) are potential energy storage devices that could be a substitute to fossil fuels. Yet, …
