Raheem Ariwoola developed an early interest in Engineering due in part to being born in a family dominated by Engineers. Having enjoyed fidgeting with all electronics equipment found in his surroundings when he was growing up, he developed a curious and inquisitive mind to further his study in the field of engineering. In 2012, he received a degree in BSc Electrical Engineering in Ladoke Akintola University of Technology, Nigeria, with the highest honors. Immediately after graduation, he went ahead to serve his fatherland at Ajaokuta Steel Company Limited, Kogi, Nigeria. After his youth service discharge in 2014, he migrated to United States to continue his studies and presently, he is looking forward to receive is MS in Engineering Technology Department at East Tennessee State University, USA. Raheem participated in a lot of activities during his high school days; he was the head of the Jets club, Science and Technology club, and a proud member of the school's interdisciplinary research committee. After his degree, He participated in some voluntary works as the chief provost of Health, Environmental and Safety club. He is a Level 1 safety professional, and he has a certificate issued by Institute of Safety Professionals Organization of Nigeria (ISPON). This shows how Raheem Ariwoola is multi-talented. At his leisure periods, Raheem enjoys spending his time writing basic computer programs, researching and surfing internet. In few years, he will be able to fulfill his life ambition by earning a Ph.D degree in the field of renewable energy in Electrical Engineering.
Dr. Mohammad Moin Uddin P.E., East Tennessee State UniversityDr. Mohammad Moin Uddin is an assistant professor at the Department of Engineering Technology, Surveying and Digital Media at East Tennessee State University. His current research interest focuses on data integration and development of energy models for campus building structures for knowledge based decision making. He also contributed to data analysis methods and cost effective practices of highway construction quality assurance program. Dr. Uddin develops and implements innovative teaching strategies for engineering technology education in order to improve student engagement and knowledge retention. building components (walls, doors, windows and roof) that enclose conditioned spaces and through which thermal energy is transferred to or from the outdoor environment and are significant sources of heat loss. A building envelope study provides a good qualitative and analytical understanding of the thermal performance of major building envelope components, identifies major deficiencies, and helps developing appropriate energy management project to improve performance. In this building envelope study, infrared thermography is used to assess envelope performance of five buildings on East Tennessee State University Campus. Infrared thermography provides a simple, fast, non-destructive, realistic, and reliable technology in determining the spatial temperature distributions of building envelope surfa...
