Light Weight Applications of Sandwich Panels in Various Industries
Abstract: Sandwich construction is of particular interest and widely used, because the concept is very suitable and amenable to the development of lightweight structures with high in-plane and flexural stiffness. Sandwich panels consist typically of two thin face sheets (or facings, or skins) and a lightweight thicker core. Commonly used materials for facings are composite laminates and metals, while cores are made of metallic and nonmetallic honeycombs, cellular foams, balsa wood …

Stabilization of Black Cotton Soil with Blending of Coir Fiber
Abstract: Stabilization of soil is a major challenge in civil engineering. About 20 % of land area in India is covered by black cotton soil. Structures built on black cotton soil may be damaged because of high swelling and shrinkage characteristics of this soil with variation of water content. Black cotton soil is an expansive soil which loses its strength in presence of water. On the other hand, it reflects behavior …

ADVANCEMENTS AND CHALLENGES OF MODERN BREEDING OVER CONVENTIONAL BREEDING
Abstract: Plant breeding dates back thousands of years, when people first deliberately bred plants based on visually pleasing characteristics. The domestication of wild plants aided this process, resulting in the evolution of numerous breeding strategies over time. Conventional breeding, which is distinguished by selective breeding based on superior performance, used procedures such as pure-line selections, mass selection, backcross breeding, recurrent selection, and hybridization. While effective, classical breeding procedures were time-consuming and …
