Effect of Reinforcement on Bearing Capacity of Sand
Abstract: The reinforced earth concept, which is now being evaluated with increased significant encompasses formation of a composite of a soil with tension resistance reinforcing elements such as metallic and nonmetallic strips, bars, rods fibers or nets in the soil. The objective of using the reinforcement is to supress the normal tensile strains in the soil mass through frictional interaction. Flexible nature of reinforced earth mass enables it to withstand large …

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 …

Predicting Rate Equation for the Synthesis of Octadec-9-Enoic Acid Methyl Esters by the Methanolysis of Pongamia Pinnata Triglycerides Using Sono Reactor
Abstract: In the present work, octadec-9-enoic acid methyl esters are synthesized from pongamia pinnata oil using methanolysis in sono reactor. The rate equation is predicted for the methanolysis reaction. The produced methyl esters from pongamia pinnata oil confirmed to ASTM D6751 standards. Fourier Transform Infrared Analysis and Gas Chromatography Mass Spectrometry were used to characterise the methyl esters. The rate is dependent greatly on methanol concentration, and then on catalyst concentration …

DGA Analysis of Transformer Oil with Experimental Investigation: An Effective Tool of Condition Monitoring for Power Transformer
Abstract: Dissolved Gas Analysis (DGA) is usually performed for power transformer condition based maintenance activities. The DGA has become a very popular technique for the monitoring the overall health of a power transformer. It is possible to distinguish faults such as partial discharge, over-heating, and arcing in a great variety of oil filled power transformers. A number of samples must be taken over a period of time to discern trends and …

Rainfall-runoff Relationship in Small Mountainous Catchments
Abstract: An event of stream danger was seen in a little watershed, where precipitation prompted a critical decrease in soil dampness content. This development of soil water can be perceived as sporadic motions as it streams into lower layers. This peculiarity includes a significant measure of water going through the dirt, contributing fundamentally to the general outpouring from the watershed. The precariousnessdriven stream hypothesis can depict this peculiarity, which emerges because …
