Managing Pavement Settlement Risk: Impact of Waterlogging and Soil Conditions
Abstract: In the context of road infrastructure, the occurrence of waterlogging due to rainfall can have significant repercussions. Rainwater often infiltrates the road surface and, depending on factors such as the depth of the foundation and the extent of penetration into the ground, can lead to the soil beneath the road becoming either moist or saturated. This, in turn, can result in a reduction of the soil's bearing capacity. When vehicles …

Integrating Deep Learning and Computer Vision for Recognizing American Sign Language
Abstract: The only way the hearing-impaired community can exchange ideas is by utilizing non-verbal communication. The main challenge, however, is that the non-impaired community, which may not comprehend non-verbal communication, would struggle to communicate effectively with this group, and vice versa. The project is purposely devised to admit unwilling and dumb societies to transport ideas and connect with the organization. It aims to bridge the gap between the hearing- and speech-impaired …
