In today’s manufacturing sector, high-quality materials that satisfy customers’ needs at a reduced cost are drawing attention in the global market. Also, as new applications are emerging, high-performance biocomposite products that complement them are required. The production of such high-performance materials requires suitable optimization techniques in the formulation/process design, not simply mixing natural fibre/filler, additives, and plastics, and characterization of the resulting biocomposites. However, a comprehensive review of the optimization strategies in biocomposite production intended for infrastructural applications is lacking. This study, therefore, presents a detailed discussion of the various optimization approaches, their strengths, and weaknesses in the formulation/process parameters of biocomposite manufacturing. The report explores the recent progress in optimization techniques in biocomposite material production to provide baseline information to researchers and industrialists in this field. Therefore, this review consolidates prior studies to explore new areas.

With the development and progress of the era, digital construction has become an important topic for enterprise development in the new era. Practice has shown that by actively carrying out corresponding digital construction work, enterprises can more comprehensively and systematically analyze the industry development and market prospects, which helps to promote the reasonable adjustment
of internal and external management work modes and the improvement of management efficiency, and has a positive guiding role for the healthy development cycle of enterprises. In this article, the author combines a large amount of research cases to conduct research on the effect of digital construction on enterprise development in the new era and proposes corresponding optimization measures, hoping to further promote the full play of information technology value, in order to safeguard the development of enterprises.

"Accelerate the construction of a strong education country, strive to open up a new situation, and consolidate the foundation of the country's prosperity and strength." On May 29, 2023, General Secretary Xi Jinping stressed that education, as an important foundation for national development, should accelerate the pace of reform and innovation. As the cradle of talent training, colleges and universities should fully recognize the country's urgency for high-level talents, and further breakthroughs should be made in the reform and development of education and teaching. Textbook construction is an important measure to strengthen China's academic construction and promote the development of China's education. At present, it is still facing problems such as slow renewal speed, single form of expression and low utilization rate of achievements. Taking Z University as an example, this article briefly discusses some suggestions for the construction and reform of postgraduate textbooks in combination with the actual situation.

As an important part of modern higher education, this topic mainly studies the construction of innovative teachers' team in local applied colleges and universities. After analyzing the problem, we found that there are many problems in the construction of innovative teachers in local applied colleges and universities, such as the lack of effective cultivation mechanism and the lack of corresponding incentives. Therefore, this paper aims to put forward some suggestions on how to establish innovative teachers' team, in order to provide a reference basis for the development of innovative teachers' team in local applied colleges and universities.

Road construction and maintenance are key interventions that support economic potential in the country. However, the deplorable state of some roads in Nigeria, and in Cross River and Akwa Ibom states draws research concerns. This paper seeks to examine the impact of the Niger Delta Development Commission Intervention on road construction and economic activities in Cross River and Akwa Ibom States, Nigeria. Using the Sustainable Development Framework, a survey research design was employed, gathering data from 400 respondents across both states. The chi-square statistical technique was used to test the hypothesis that the Niger Delta Development Commission Intervention has no significant impact on road construction in Akwa Ibom and Cross River States. The result of the data analysis showed the calculated value X² = 1592 > 16.92. By this result, the null hypothesis was rejected (16.92) at 0.05 level of significance and 9 Degrees of Freedom, and the alternate was accepted. The study concludes that NDDC road projects have positively influenced economic activities and livelihoods in the states. However, it highlights the need for further improvements, particularly on the Calabar-Itu federal highway.
