An Integrated Application of Remote Sensing, GIS and VES for Artificial Recharging at Watershed from South Solapur Taluka, Solapur District, Maharashtra
Abstract: Over growing demand of water has led scientific community to plan augmentation of ground water by various methods. The objectives achieved in present study are to arrest run-off and silt flow, to facilitate infiltration of water. The study area considered is a small Micro Watershed from South Solapur District which is Drought prone zone. The study was an attempt to delineate the possible recharge zone for groundwater and also to …

A study to investigate the shear strength resistance of Ennore sand from conventional direct shear test.
Abstract: In this article analysis of shear strength parameters of Ennore Sand is given using the direct shear test. The shear strength parameters of cohesion and angle of shearing resistance are employed in the construction of geotechnical constructions to describe the soil's ability to sustain shear stress when subjected to a certain load. These might be measured using laboratory or field testing. When shearing a sample in a direct shear apparatus, …

Synthesis of low cost artificial sand from fly ash and its application as a filter material
Abstract: The usage of natural river sand is increasing vastly. Geopolymers are materials with three-dimensional alumina silicate structures that have a high mechanical strength and can be used as an alternative to Portland cement. The probability of using Natural river sand can also be replaced with geopolymer synthetic sand. There are many properties which may lead the scarcity of natural river sand they are Because of landslides, tsunamis and erosion. The …

Small-Scale Model Study on the Load-Deflection Characteristics of Single Piles under Static Lateral Load
Abstract: The capacity of a certain mathematical model to mimic a behavior occurring on a larger scale often concerns engineers. To evaluate a particular structure's safety factor, model uncertainty is an important consideration. Piles have been widely used to support axial and lateral loads for a wide range of structures, including high-rise buildings, transmission towers, power plants, offshore structures, highway and railway structures. Many transmission towers, high-rise buildings, highway and railway …
