Research and Scholarship

Prof. Ayodele conducts research on determination of geotechnical properties of soil from index properties using regression models, the use of mineral acids such as phosphoric acid for soil stabilization, effects of some salts (such as calcium chloride and sodium chloride), base (such as calcium hydroxide), mineral acid (such as phosphoric acid) on some geotechnical properties of soil and electrochemical treatment of lateritic soil.

 

Prof. Ayodele was a recipient of OAU-Carnegie fellowship for female members of staff in 2014. The fellowship was utilized at the Geo-Environmental Laboratory of the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering Department, Lehigh University, Pennsylvania, USA under the supervision of Prof. Sibel Pamukcu.

 

Teaching

Prof. Ayodele teaches courses in Geotechnical Engineering at both undergraduate and postgraduate levels and Foundation Engineering, Soil Stabilization and Soil Dynamics at the postgraduate level.
