Corrosion of buried and submerged steel infrastructure is a critical challenge in Nigeria's oil, gas, and water industries, resulting in significant economic losses and environmental risks. Cathodic protection (CP) is widely adopted to mitigate corrosion, yet studies conducted in Nigerian environments—such as swampy soils, loamy soils, and saline seawater—report varying levels of effectiveness without defining a clear operational voltage range. This paper reviews and compares three notable CP studies: swampy soil environments (Ekott et al., 2013), buried steel pipelines in the Niger Delta (Ekott et al., 2014), and seawater..........

This paper presents the optimization of a polynomial seventh-order two-parameter (2P) interpolation kernel using the Extended slope criterion, obtained by extending the Slope criterion with an additional slope-equality condition. The Slope criterion requires the slope of the time-domain characteristic of the 2P kernel at the interpolation node 𝑠=1 to be equal to the corresponding slope of the ideal 𝑠𝑖𝑛𝑐 kernel. Since this condition yields one equation with two unknown parameters, 𝛼 and 𝛽, an infinite number of solutions is obtained. The criterion is therefore extended by imposing an additional condition requiring equality of the slopes..........

The splitting parameters of zero field of the Mn2+ doped Cd K2 (SO4)2.6H2O (CKS) single crystals are computed utilizing the superposition model. The estimated parameters agree well with those obtained from EPR. The conclusion of experiment that the Cd2+ site is replaced by the Mn2+ ion in CKS is confirmed by theoretical study. The crystal's optical spectra are obtained employing crystal field parameters obtained from the superposition model and crystal field analysis program. A fair correspondence is found with the experimental band positions. Thus, the experimental observations are verified by the theoretical calculations.

In this research paper the most effective risk management strategies for mitigating delays in large construction projects will be discussed. Delays in any construction projects, be it big or small, are a significant risk for investors, contractors and project managers. If the projects are not completed in the agreed time frame they bare different penalties, for contractors involved in these projects. Therefore, large construction companies invest a lot of time and money into research
