Prediction of Mix Ratios for Grade 30 Superplasticized Concrete Using Osadebe’s Regression Model
Abstract: This study developed a model for estimating the compressive strength of grade 30 super-plasticized concrete. The regression model was built using a total of 15 experimental mix ratios. The results of compressive strength at 28 days from the concrete cubes were used for model development. Two cubes (150 mm × 150 mm × 150 mm) were produced per mix ratio, totaling 30 cubes for the 15 trial mix ratios. Osadebe’s …

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. …

Computer Programming Tool for the Design of Concrete Mixes for Pavement Quality Concrete Roads in India
Abstract: Basically concrete is a mixture of cement, sand, aggregates and water. These constituents bonds together and hardens with time and give strength to structure. The proportioning of concrete mixes consists of determining relative quantities of materials to be used. Thus to calculate proportions of various components of concrete several mix calculations are required to be performed. Consequently, it is not possible to select at once the exact mix proportion required …

Precast Airport Lane Analysis of Military Air Base Using ANSYS
Abstract: This report describes the technology of using precast concrete panels for the repair of concrete pavements. The objective of the study was to assess the state-of-technology and to identify implementation challenges. The repair of concrete pavements using precast concrete panels may be an effective alternative to cast-in-place repairs, because it can reduce construction time and provide durable pavements. Construction costs of repairs using precast panels are typically higher than the …

Influence of Constant Micro Strain Levels on the Strength Properties of the Asphalt Concrete mixture
Abstract: Asphalt concrete mixture is designed to resist the deformation and vehicular traffic loading throughout its service life. However, when the asphalt concrete pavement practices over loading within the service life period, it exhibits cracking and rutting. In the present investigation, an attempt has been taken to understand the strength performance of asphalt concrete when practicing variable levels of constant stresses. Asphalt concrete mixture was prepared at optimum asphalt cement requirement …

Preventive Approaches in Endodontic Treatment
Abstract: This manuscript is a review of conservative and preventive approaches to restoration of teeth during and after endodontic procedures (serving to protect them from fracture or recurrent caries). These approaches overcome major barriers in restoring cosmetics and function to the dentition. Forces during condensation of gutta percha, post placement, traumatic occlusion, and recurrent caries are major causes of failure associated with endodontic therapy. A large number of endodontically treated teeth …

Restoration with Biological Crown as a Viable Alternative – Two Case Reports
Abstract: Carious exposure sometimes rules out the option of restoration where comes the need for root canal treatment with subsequent replacement of the coronal structure with post-core and artificial crown. But if the molars are destructed severely and the patient also has an impacted molar, crown of that impacted molar can be used as biological crown and can be successfully cemented on the prepared tooth.

Materials used in Periodontal Therapy for the Treatment of Intra-bony Defects
Abstract: Periodontitis is a condition that affects the supporting structures of a tooth, such as the gingiva, cementum, periodontal ligament, and alveolar bone. Periodontitis is widespread in the American population, although most of the cases are mild to moderate in severity and are treatable by minimally invasive procedures. Intra-bony defects, which develop as manifestation of some periodontal diseases, are treated by regenerative therapy with bone grafts that initiate or facilitate the …

Tooth Supported Overdenture: Preventive Prosthodontic Treatment Modality––A Case Report
Abstract: This is a case report of a very young patient who has lost all her maxillary teeth except canines and partially edentulous in the lower arch. The main concern here was to preserve the existing residual alveolar ridge from the resorption process and to rehabilitate functionally and esthetically. Initially, vestibuloplasty was performed on the buccal sulcus to increase the vestibular depth. The maxillary canines were intentionally root canal treated, followed …

Periodontal Regeneration: Histological Perspective
Abstract: Periodontitis involves an inflammatory process of bacterial origin, affecting the periodontal tissues and provoking the destruction of the supporting tissues to the teeth. The ultimate goal of periodontal treatment seeks to preserve the teeth in relatively functional and comfortable good health, and at the same time maintaining the aesthetic expectations of the patient. The rationale for most of the therapeutic procedures is “regeneration of periodontium”. Periodontal regeneration can be assessed …

Structure–Property-Guided Polymer–Metal Hybrid Design of a Wall Plastering Spray Assembly
Abstract: Wall plastering spray equipment requires a combination of low mass, dimensional stability, abrasion resistance, chemical compatibility with cementitious mortar, and comfortable operator interaction. The original assembly was primarily developed as a metallic mechanical system; however, a polymer-focused material architecture can reduce non-load-bearing mass while retaining a safe metallic pressure path. This study, therefore, presents a structure–property-guided polymer–metal hybrid design in which the pressure housing and nozzle insert remain metallic, whereas …
