The world population keeps increasing, and this growth has enormously impacted the environment negatively. Researchers all over the world have continually seeking different ways by which the negative impact of the global increasing population can be minimized including developing new technologies to accommodate the high population. The use of plastic has increased, wastes are taking land spaces, which could be used for other purposes such as building and farming, water bodies are been polluted leading to poor access to portable water, and food shortage has been experienced in many communities. The research presented in this book cut across Machine Design, Technologies of Environmental Engineering and Bioprocessing, Materials and Technologies in Construction, Information and Communication Technologies, and Engineering and Project Management. These researches if implemented would go a long way in providing sustainable and lasting solutions to these challenges.
This volume contains papers that were presented at the 4th International Conference on Materials Sciences and Nanomaterials (ICMSN 2020), the 5th International Conference on Advanced Functional Materials (ICAFM 2020), and the 3rd International Conference on Advanced Composite Materials (ICACM 2020). These conferences were held 8-10 July 2020, virtually in web streaming. Collected articles present scientific research and engineering design results in the area of materials sciences, building materials, and advanced technologies of materials processing.
The 51st volume of "International Journal of Engineering Research in Africa" includes peer-reviewed manuscripts reflecting the research results in the fields of materials science, applied mechanics, mechanical and power engineering, biomass processing, communication, construction, engineering management, and applied use of computational procedures and optimization methods in the research practice. The presented scientific articles can be appreciated by the majority of engineers, academic teachers, and students majoring in the fields of engineering science.
