Simulation of Sediment Deposit and Maintenance Requirements for Sani- Abacha Road Culvert, Rivers State, Nigeria
Abstract: Empirical model of sediment yield equation was applied to develop the sediment deposit monitoring equation of the Sani-Abacha road culvert. The culverts were selected based on field observation of continuous overflow, road overtopping and channel contraction in the course of heavy storm due to sediment built up within and inside the culvert barrel. The result of the assessment shows that the way sediment load varies with discharge is consistent and …

Cloud Computing Data Storage
Abstract: ABSTRACT: Identity-based proxy re-encryption schemes have been proposed to shift the burden of managing numerous files from the owner to a proxy server. Nevertheless, the existing solutions suffer from several drawbacks. First, the access permission is determined by the central authority, which makes the scheme impractical. Second, they are insecure against collusion attacks. Finally, only queries from the same domain (intra-domain) are considered. We note that one of the main …
