IRNLGD: An Edge Detection Algorithm with Comprehensive Gradient Directions for Tidal Stream Turbine
Tidal stream turbines (TSTs) harness the kinetic energy of tides to generate electricity by rotating the rotor. Biofouling will lead to an imbalance between the blades, resulting in imbalanced torque and voltage across the windings, ultimately polluting ...

Potential of sugarcane bagasse as feedstock for biogas production in Nigeria
Abstract The Nigerian government’s interest in expanding the sugar sector has significantly increased sugarcane production, generating substantial bagasse by‐products without adequate waste management strategies. This study examined the potential of sugarcane bagasse as a biogas feedstock by integrating a socioeconomic survey of 120 sugarcane farmers ...
