ABSTRACTS


This project work is focused at investigating the assessment performance of blocks made with coconut fiber and plastic waste compared to blocks made with normal fine aggregate and cement. a total of 96 blocks were produced in which 90 was used , 48 was made from just fine aggregate and cement while 42 was made from coconut fiber, plastic waste , cement and water. The total size of all the block was 6 inches the blocks were subjected to various test such as water absorption, compressive strength test and flexural strength test. The water absorption rate for sandcrete block range from 3.49% to 5.29% while for coconut fibre and plastic waste blocks
range from 6.35% to 9.68%. The compressive strength test for pure blocks ranges from 27 KN to 46KN while for coconut fiber and plastic waste block range from 27 KN to 50KN. The flexural strength test also range from 0.47N/mm2 to 1.42N/mm2 for pure sandcrete blocks and 1.096N/MM2 to 1.816N/MM2 for coconut fibre and plastic waste.

ABSTRACT


Customers can now access resources and services globally using cloud computing from any location at any time. The majority of network traffic consists of data, both multimedia and non-multimedia, which has high computing and memory requirements as well as security restrictions. Technology-based devices like computers and smartphones have constrained resources as well as unreliable data integrity and confidentiality. As a result, the requirement for safe storage in a cloudcomputing environment becomes apparent. This research work presented secure file storage in a cloud-computing environment using a hybrid cryptography technique. The system has been designed based on combined AES, RSA, and TWOFISH approach. The new proposed system was evaluated. The experimental results show the hybrid algorithms have much better performance in terms of file security and time management for both encryption and decryption.

ABSTRACT


Fish is an extremely perishable food item (Agbon et al; 2002). Soon after death, fish begins to spoil. In the healthy like fish, all the complete biochemical reactions are balanced and the fish is sterile. After death however, irreversible changes set in which results to fish spoilage. The resultant effect is the decomposition of the fish (Akinola et al; 2006). Various factors are responsible for fish spoilage. These factors include: Microbial spoilage, enzymatic spoilage and chemical spoilage. Obviously, the quality
of capture is important at determining the rate of spoilage. The fish health status the presence of parasites, bruises and wounds on the skin and the mode by which the fish is handled determine the quality of fish in others words the caught fish quality, depends on the handling and preservation, the fish received from the hands of the fisher practice after capture affects the degree of spoilage of the post-harvest losses of fish, the researchers have carried out a survey on proper handling of fish using 30 fishermen at river Benue and 30 fish farmers in Gboko to ascertain the level of fish
handling. Results have shown that only 10% out of 30 fish farmers handled the catch as expected. Having done the work, the researcher concluded that it is good to handle fish properly in order to improve its quality and avoid post-harvest losses Keywords: Harvesting, Biochemical reaction, processing, preservation and spoilage
