Optimizing the Output of a Solar Panel Using Reflectors.
(2020-12-14)
Solar energy is a clean source of energy but, it is considered insufficient, even for domestic use,
since it usually produces a low output than is necessary to run the available electrical needs.
As such, it is typical ...
Assessing the Effectiveness of Stabilizing Expansive In-Situ Subgrade Soils on Road Projects in Uganda Using Bagasse Ash
(2020-12-18)
Unsuitable soils for road construction can be improved by a process called stabilization. This is the addition of additives to the soil in order to improve its engineering properties. The most common means of stabilization ...
Analysing the relationship between linear shrinkage and swell of soaked CBR Samples
(2020-12)
The behavior of clays is very critical in many engineering works, tests on the soils are carried out before a project is started to know their behavior and which methods of construction would be employed depending on the ...
The effects of extreme wet weather on unpaved roads case study; Bubulo - Bududa circular road.
(2020-12-23)
Extreme events are generally rare events. The events cause the exceeding of maximum values
and/or pre-existing (measured) high (low) thresholds of certain weather parameters and generate
impacts that are harmful to any ...
Design and construction of a three-way single phase Automatic transfer switch.
(2020-12-15)
In any operation where continuous electrical power is required, an interruption in the flow of power could result in significant losses unless backup power comes online quickly. A prolonged power outage could disastrously ...
Optimizing thermoelectric generator efficiency by using maximum power point tracking and a passive cooling system.
(2020-12)
This project focuses on the improvement of a Thermoelectric generator’s (TEG) efficiency by
the use of a maximum power point tracker (MPPT) and a designed passive cooling system. A
TEG is a solid-state device that converts ...
Analyzing the effect of introduction of industrial loads on the distribution network security
(2020-12)
A distribution power utility company is mandated to supply electrical energy to the final consumer which includes both industrial demand and domestic demand. There has been a steady increase in industrial parks which are ...
Development of resilient and resource-efficient service function chaining in 5G networks.
(2020-12)
This is a research based project on resilient and resource e cient service function
chaining in 5G networks.
This project addresses the challenge on how to guarantee survivability of critical
services while e ciently ...
Optimal capacitor placement using genetic Algorithm on radial distribution network.
(2020-12-22)
The power generated by generation centers is transferred to load centers through transmission or distribution systems and it is not meeting the load demand mainly due to the losses and poor voltage regulation occurring in ...
Developing of a parametric tool to automatically predict buckling in unbraced reinforced concrete columns for low and high rise buildings in Uganda.
(2020-12-22)
The main objective was to develop a parametric model to automatically predict buckling in unbraced reinforced concrete columns. This objective was achieved through fulfilling the specific objectives which included: To ...
