Strengthening of RC Structures Using CFRP-Near Surface Mounted Technique
Abstract: This study reviews the literature on fiber-reinforced polymers (FRP) and their applications in near-surface mounted (NSM) applications. Since fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites outperform many conventional steel reinforcing methods in terms of quality, they are nearly entirely dependent on advanced concrete technology. Many structures that will still be in use two decades from now have already been constructed. A portion of these structures must undergo enhancements or be replaced, as they …

Agro- residue Pretreatment Tools and Techniques: A Detailed review
Abstract: This review examines the significance of biomass pre-treatment in facilitating efficient biofuel production from lignocellulosic materials. Different methods of pre-treatment, such as acid, alkaline, liquid hot water, ionic liquids, organosolv, ozonolysis, wet oxidation, steam explosion, ammonia fiber explosion (AFEX), carbon dioxide explosion, and biological pretreatment, are examined in terms of their underlying principles, benefits, and drawbacks. Acid pretreatment effectively hydrolyzes hemicellulose but suffers from equipment corrosion and high operational costs, …

Nuclear Reactor Safety Using Fuel Pallet: A Study
Abstract: Nuclear power stands as a vital source of low-carbon electricity, but its widespread acceptance hinges critically on unwavering safety. While public perception often focuses on massive containment buildings, intricate cooling systems, and redundant backup power, a less visible yet fundamentally crucial component plays a paramount role in safety. There is much more to these tiny, cylindrical ceramic pellets than just fissionable material. As an essential part of a reactor's defense-in-depth …
