Effect of Water Table Position on the Stability of Tunnel
Abstract: Tunnel is an underground structure used to convey the traffic. Construction of a tunnel in rock is a difficult task. In instances where tunnels are situated at shallow depths, the stability of the tunnel and its lining is notably affected by the adjacent surcharge loadings resulting from new building constructions or excessive loads on the ground surface. Stability of the tunnel crest also depends on the position of the water …

Analysis of Three Types of Quartzite as Coarse Aggregate Material and their Impact on Compressive Strength on Concrete
Abstract: Aggregates are the most important constituents of concrete. They give body to the concrete, reduce shrinkage, enhance strength and effect economy. The quartzite rock available in Delhi is a prominent geological material available in the entire Aravali range. Most of the manufacturing of concrete is going on using quartzite as aggregate material. However, three different categories of quartzite have been classified on the basis of its colour composition namely greyish …

Exploring Abrasive Flow Finishing of 3D Printed Mesoscale Passage
Abstract: 3-D printed parts and components have gained wide applicability which continues to increase day by day. However, due to the very nature of 3-D printing process, i.e. layer additions, outer surfaces are subject to poor finishing. Finishing 3-D printed parts is thus a necessity if they are to be used for prototyping or functional purpose. But, finishing remains a challenge, especially if the part contains passages that lie within and …
