The reliance on imported bentonite for drilling fluid formulation in Nigeria poses significant economic challenges and limits local content development. This study evaluates the suitability of indigenous clay deposits from the Egbeta community, Edo State, for water-based drilling fluid applications. Clay samples were collected and subjected to laboratory analyses,... Continue here

This study presents a Hankel-transform-based analytical framework for optimising electromagnetohy-drodynamic (EMHD) fluid flow over a cylindrical surface, motivated by advanced material-processing applications such as coating, extrusion, thermal treatment, and surface modification. The interaction between electromagnetic forces and conductive fluid motion in... Continue here
