Analysis of the performance challenges affecting state-owned refineries in Nigeria: a systems thinking approach. (2022)
Thesis
IHEUKWUMERE, O.E. 2022. Analysis of the performance challenges affecting state-owned refineries in Nigeria: a systems thinking approach. Robert Gordon University, PhD thesis. Hosted on OpenAIR [online]. Available from: https://doi.org/10.48526/rgu-wt-1712811

This research aimed to understand how the significant factors that lead to performance challenges across Nigeria's state-owned refineries operationalise to drive their sub-optimal performance. As such, unlike previous studies, this thesis proposed to... Read More about Analysis of the performance challenges affecting state-owned refineries in Nigeria: a systems thinking approach..

Effect of fillers on compression loading performance of modified re-entrant honeycomb auxetic sandwich structures. (2022)
Journal Article
FAISAL, N.H., SCOTT, L., BOOTH, F., DUNCAN, S., MCLEOD, A., DROUBI, M.G. and NJUGUNA, J. 2023. Effect of fillers on compression loading performance of modified re-entrant honeycomb auxetic sandwich structures. Journal of strain analysis for engineering design [online], 58(2), pages 98-117. Available from: https://doi.org/10.1177/03093247221083210

The auxetic sandwich panels for structures have been designed to provide impact protection. The aim of this work is to modify an auxetic (re-entrant) honeycomb cell to reduce the stress concentrations within the cell structure, and further enhancemen...

Evaluation of caprock integrity for underground storage of CO2 in depleted oil and gas reservoirs using machine learning approach. (2022)
Presentation / Conference
AMINAHO, E.N., SANAEE, R. and FAISAL, N. 2022. Evaluation of caprock integrity for underground storage of CO2 in depleted oil and gas reservoirs using machine learning approach. To be presented at 9th Annual student energy congress 2022 (ASEC 2022), 7-9 March 2022, Zagreb, Croatia.

Carbon (IV) oxide (CO2) geosequestration represents one of the most promising options for reducing atmospheric emissions of CO2. Capturing carbon dioxide is proposed as one solution to global climate change caused by anthropogenic gases in the atmosp...

Design and analysis of non-threaded drill pipe connector. (2022)
Thesis
THAKUR, J.O. 2022. Design and analysis of non-threaded drill pipe connector. Robert Gordon University, MRes thesis. Hosted on OpenAIR [online]. Available from: https://doi.org/10.48526/rgu-wt-2271554

This thesis determines the feasibility and application opportunities of a Snap-Latch Ring design based on the Pin and Box non-threaded connectors design. Modern drill pipes are connected by rotary threaded shouldered connections that have been prone... Read More about Design and analysis of non-threaded drill pipe connector..
