Improving Black Cotton Soil with Sodium Hydroxide and Fly Ash: An Assessment of Optimum Moisture Content, Dry Density, and California Bearing Ratio
Abstract: This study investigates the stabilization of Black Cotton Soil (BCS), an expansive clayey soil primarily composed of montmorillonite minerals, using sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and fly ash. Due to its high plasticity and significant volume changes with moisture, BCS is challenging for construction purposes. Adding NaOH and fly ash can potentially improve the soil's moisture tolerance, compressibility, and reduce its plasticity, making it more suitable for structural applications. The research evaluates …

Development and Mechanical Characterization of Polymer based Bio Composite Filaments for FDM Applications
Abstract: Additive Manufacturing (AM) is an advanced fabrication process capable of producing complex and intricate components to meet diverse industrial and customer demands. For small-scale producers and researchers, FDM is the most straightforward, affordable, and easily accessible of the several AM processes. The majority of conventional polymer feedstocks used in FDM lack sufficient mechanical strength and thermal stability, which limits their use in load-bearing or structural components. This effort aims to …
