Simulation of Sediment Deposit and Maintenance Requirements for Sani- Abacha Road Culvert, Rivers State, Nigeria
Abstract: Empirical model of sediment yield equation was applied to develop the sediment deposit monitoring equation of the Sani-Abacha road culvert. The culverts were selected based on field observation of continuous overflow, road overtopping and channel contraction in the course of heavy storm due to sediment built up within and inside the culvert barrel. The result of the assessment shows that the way sediment load varies with discharge is consistent and …

Review on Network Layer Attacks and Counter Measures in MANET
Abstract: A security is one of the major issues in the MANET. The major security goals for any network are confidentiality between the sender and receiver, authenticity in transmitting the packets through intermediate hops, integrity in packet transmitted i.e. the original data remain unaltered, network availability during link failure and non-repudiation, where sender or receiver cannot deny on the message sent or received. These security goals are not easily attained in …

Detection and Prevention of Selfish Node Attack in MANET
Abstract: Mobile ad hoc network is self-designing, autonomous, without any centralize node and lacking of the fixed infrastructure network. Mobile nodes are depending on other nodes for transmitting data. Mobile ad hoc network has expected that all nodes are cooperating with each other. Anyhow, some nodes are not cooperating and saving their resources for own use, these nodes are termed as a selfish node. Behaviour of selfishness performance of network reduces. …
