  1. The California bearing ratio (CBR) of some mechanically stabilised laterite sub-base soils along the Ibadan-Oyo Road, Southwestern Nigeria

    The California bearing ratio (CBR) of some mechanically stabilised laterite sub-base soils along the Ibadan-Oyo Road, Southwestern Nigeria

    Item type: Journal Article • Journal: African Journal of Science, Technology, Innovation and Development • Authors: P.A. Fasanmade --- Civil Engineering Department, Nigeria G.O. Adeyemi --- Geology Department, Nigeria E.O. Eze --- Civil Engineering Department, Nigeria
    Mechanical stabilisation by mixing one lateritic soil with another is not a popular subject of research, hence this study. Samples were taken from two locations along the Ibadan-Oyo Road in Southwestern Nigeria. The study focused on determining the California bearing...

    An overview of themes in the agrarian and environmental history of the Karoo since c.1800

    Item type: Journal Article • Journal: African Journal of Range & Forage Science • Authors: William Beinart --- African Studies Centre, UK
    This article explores some themes in the agrarian and environmental history of the Karoo since 1800. It argues that environmental change cannot be understood without incorporating social, economic and political history. This is especially so in the case of the...
  3. A note on stabilisations of manifolds

    A note on stabilisations of manifolds

    Item type: Journal Article • Journal: Quaestiones Mathematicae • Authors: Daniele Ettore Otera --- Vilnius University, Institute of Data Science and Digital Technologies, Lithuania
    In this short note we consider the relationships between two topological tameness condition at infinity of open manifolds in the case of product with a ball.
  4. The potential use of a water treatment residue as a temporary growth medium over a coal combustion ash: yield response of two creeping grasses

    The potential use of a water treatment residue as a temporary growth medium over a coal combustion ash: yield response of two creeping grasses

    Item type: Journal Article • Journal: South African Journal of Plant and Soil • Authors: L.W. Titshali --- Soil Science, School of Environmental Sciences, University of KwaZulu-Natal, Private Bag X01, Scottsville 3209,, South Africa J.C. Hughes --- Soil Science, School of Environmental Sciences, University of KwaZulu-Natal, Private Bag X01, Scottsville 3209,, South Africa
    Recent research has indicated the potential for recovery of aluminium from alumina-rich coal-combustion ashes (CCA). However, the ash disposal sites, if not vegetated, often present environmental risks due to water and air-borne dispersal of contaminants. This study investigated the potential...
