Estimation of Life Cycle Cost of RC Infrastructure Using Different Analysis Methods
Abstract: Accuracy of service life prediction largely influence life cycle cost of infrastructure. Recent research come up with the conclusion that ingression of chloride to cover concrete is dependent on the water penetration front which dramatically change the service life. Therefore, in this study chloride ion profiles and behavior of penetrating water for slag concrete with w/c ratio as 40%, 55% and 70%, respectively, cast in laboratory, were examined. Furthermore, life …

Automating Acquisition through SOUL 3.0
Abstract: Library automation is an integral part of the development process of any library or resource center. Traditionally this includes automation of acquisition, serialization, cataloging and circulation. But most libraries do list entries of reading material and display them via OPAC. These libraries have been equally successful in computerized issues and returns. But the real difficulty lies in the automation of acquisition activities. It is forgotten that cataloging begins with acquisition. …

Simulation of A New Configuration for Tidal Power Plants: Analysis of Power Generation Increase
Abstract: A new concept in tidal energy use has been developed and modeled. The system is based on nonconventional distribution of tidal turbines in series rather than in parallel, using the stepped profile of the continental shelf. A hybrid configuration of series and parallel distribution of tidal turbines has been studied and analyzed. A third option with quincunx distribution of the tidal turbines has also been studied. The results have been …

Natural Radioactivity in Fresh Water System
Abstract: Measurement of natural radioactivity in drinking water has been performed for the assessment of the doses and the risks resulting from consuming water. Ingestion is a major pathway for internal exposure; hence, the measurement of radioactivity in drinking water is relevant. The dose contribution is primarily due to the presence of naturally occurring radionuclides of the uranium and thorium series. It is observed that the most natural radioactivity present in …
