Semi-Autonomous Robotic Boat, with Lora Data Acquisition
Daniel Habiyambere*, Himbaza Enock Abayo, Ngabonziza Albert
Keeping waterways safe can be very challenging, especially in large areas inside countries but also across waterways that borders countries, illegal activities in waterways may be harmful and can damage the aquatic environment. Illegal trading, as well as smuggling tobacco, cannabis, and alcoholic drinks are also problematic. Additionally, armed groups can also use the waterways to smuggle goods a
Cost-effective Resilient Rural Bridges –A Case Study of Masonry Stone Arch Bridges in Kasese District, Western Uganda
Richard Baluku*, Allan Ray Okodi, Apollo Buregyeya
Climate change poses an increasing threat to Uganda’s road infrastructure, with frequent flooding and bridge washouts making replacement and new constructions costly. This study evaluates the cost-effectiveness and climate resilience of stone arch bridges compared to reinforced concrete alternatives. Using a case study approach comprising site visits, stakeholder interviews, structural, constructi
Innovative and Sustainable Water Engineering for Agricultural irrigation in Sub-Saharan Africa: A Systematic Review of Irrigation Technologies and Their Productivity Impacts under Water Scarcity
Joseph M. Ntayi*, Martin Kalibbala, James Mubangizi, Denis Musinguzi, Stanley Ssevume
This paper aims to review existing studies on innovative and sustainable water engineering for agricultural irrigation technologies and their productivity impacts under water scarcity in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). This study analyzed and reviewed 50 articles and reports on agricultural irrigation technologies using a systematic literature review, PEO, PRISMA, SALSA and impact-effectiveness framewor
Assessment of Groundwater Quality and Faecal Contamination Risks Underneath the Qoboza Klaaste Building, University of Johannesburg
Moosa Phulwana, Patience Davhana*, Mondli Mthombeni
The study assesses the safety and feasibility of the groundwater under the Q/K building (Qoboza Klaaste) of the University of Johannesburg under the terms of physicochemical and microbiological quality. Groundwater ingress is a persistent structural and resource concern, exacerbated by legacy mining impacts and urban sewer infrastructure. Groundwater samples were benchmarked against the South Afri
