Comparison of the Compressive Strength of Concrete Made with Palm Kernel Shell and Gravel as Coarse Aggregates
Abstract: The investigation of alternative materials for the construction, comparison of the compressive strength of concrete made with palm kernel shell as coarse aggregate and concrete made with gravel. A mix proportion of 1:2:4 with water cement ratio of 0.6, ordinary Portland cement, PKS, gravel and sand were used for this research. 24 cubes were cast and tested for compressive strength at 7, A14, 21 and 28 days. The result showed …

Simulation of Dual Microstructure Heat Treatment Process and Residual Stresses in Gas Turbine Disc by DeformHT Software
Abstract: Gas turbine disc is one of the most vital components in advanced gas engine. In order to improve the tensile strength and fatigue strength of the disc, finer grain size is to be attained at bore area and coarser grain structure at rim area in order to resist the growth of creep. Attempts have been made by several researchers experimentally on the development of dual microstructure for Inconel-718 by heat …

Characteristics of PWC-11 in Atomic Reactors
Abstract: AbstractCarbon (0.1%) addition to basic Nb – 1 Zr alloy has introduced carbide precipitation to enhance desirable properties. Precipitation hardened PWC – 11 compared to solid solution hardened Nb – 1 Zr alloys show no appreciable changes by low cycle fatigue behavior, even failure modes are also similar i.e. intergranular cracking. Selections of suitable alloys are considered for resistance to high temperature in extraterrestrial environments and resistant to radioactive neutron …

Validation of Fuzzy System by Slump and Compressive Strength of Steel Slag Aggregate Concrete
Abstract: Concrete is the most important material used in constructionand is usually a mixture of fine aggregate, coarse aggregate, cement, water and admixtures. Concrete mix design is a process of proportioning the ingredients in right proportions. Using artificial intelligence networks like MATLAB for optimization of concrete ingredient. By which better packing of aggregates to be achieved, will improves the greater strength, modulus of elasticity, creep and shrinkage of concrete. Technique is …

Effect of Silica Fume on Compressive Strength of Concrete and its Impact on Structure
Abstract: Silica fume is the byproduct which is obtained in ferrosilicon and silicon industry. With the increase in environmental hazardous effect, exploitation of industrial outgrowth and exhaustion of natural resources, the demand of using the byproducts has become a captivating choice to disposal. Silica fume is very active pozzolan, it is used in concrete because of its extreme fine, high SiO2 content and very effective in development and design of high-performance …

Sustainability of Asphalt Pavement in Terms of CraSustainability of Asphalt Pavement in Terms of Crack Healing Phenomena: A Reviewck Healing Phenomena: A Review
Abstract: The Asphalt concrete mixture is considered to have nonlinear viscoelastic behavior, its fatigue life consists of two components, namely the resistance to fracture and crack, and the ability to heal the micro cracks. Both of the processes change with temperature and time. Such processes exhibit the sustainability potential of asphalt concrete pavement. The approach to study this potential requires mechanical tests like creep or relaxation, strength and repeated load tests. …

Comprehensive Survey on Substance Abuse in Guwahati - Trends, Magnitude and Gaps
Abstract: Drug Addiction, substance abuse or chemical dependency, different terms for an extremely complex social malady which stealthily creeps into homes and communities breaking down relationships, values, finances, hope and faith, dignity and self-respect. In 1972, the then Assamese weekly news-magazine Nilachal had carried banner headlines of drug addiction discovered in elite Shillong boarding schools. There were a few kids trying out ganja, they were a rarity. Even other traditional drugs …
