Precipitation Trend Analysis by MK Test in Garhwal Region Districts of Uttarakhand (1901–2010)
Abstract: Climate change has disrupted the major climatic parameters at a global level. However, the changes having localized intensity are not equal for all regions especially in India. These changes must be quantified locally to manage the natural water resources more effectively. Precipitation is one of the most important climatic parameters. It has been widely measured as a starting point towards the apprehension of global climate change. The purpose of this …

An Innovative AI-Integrated Approach for Identifying the Tensile Robustness of Polymeric Materials
Abstract: Polymeric materials have so many applications and character similar to flexibility, robustness and lightweight nature they are essential to a large variety of industries. Though, it is difficult to establish their tensile robustness appropriately, particularly in a variety of environmental situation. Provide a recommended Artificial Intelligence (AI)-integrated method to decide the issues of rapidly ascertaining the tensile robustness of the polymeric material. Using machine learning (ML), this study, predicted and …

Strength Prediction and Optimization of Portland Limestone Cement Blended with Metakaolin and Rice Husk Ash
Abstract: This study explores the effects of Rice Husk Ash (RHA) and Metakaolin (MK) on the compressive strength of Portland Limestone Cement (PLC) mortar, aiming to promote sustainable construction materials. RHA and MK, derived from agricultural and industrial byproducts, serve as supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) that offer environmental benefits and improve cement properties. Using response surface methodology (RSM) and central composite design (CCD), the research optimized the ternary blend of PLC, …

Influence of Metakaolin Content on the Properties of Pavement Quality Concrete
Abstract: The use of ordinary portland cement in infrastructure construction needs to be regularized due to sustainability issues. In this regard, there has been an emergence of supplementary cementing materials possessing pozzolanic characteristics. The objective of this paper is to partially replace the cement with metakaolin and investigate the effects of metakaolin on properties of Pavement Quality Concrete. Concrete mixtures with varying MK content of 0%, 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, and …

Study The Effect of Metakaolin Powder in Hot Mix Asphalt as Mineral Filler
Abstract: Mineral fillers are crucial for bridging the spaces between the internal particles of the asphalt matrix. The purpose of this study is to investigate the mechanical properties of hot mix asphalt as well as the impact of utilising Metakaolin (MK) as a mineral filler. Coarse aggregate, fine aggregate, and filler are the main components of hot mix asphalt (HM). With or without modifiers, materials and asphalt binders. HMA components have …

Hand Grasp Recognition and Classification of Prehensile Surface EMG Signals
Abstract: Myoelectric control signals are commonly used as a convenient solution of prosthesis control for the disabled persons or amputees. Surface EMG signal being noninvasive is easy to acquire and is commonly used in prosthetic devices. Myoelectric control system is the fundamental component of modern prostheses, which uses the myoelectric signals from an individual’s muscles to control the prosthesis movements. In this paper data collected from several subjects using four surface …

A Study on Strength and Durability of Fly Ash–Metakaolin Blended Geopolymer Concrete
Abstract: Production of cement causes 8% of the total carbon dioxide emissions in the world. Finding a right alternative to cement is the need of the hour, to eliminate environmental pollution caused by cement production. A substitute for conventional concrete can be industrial waste products like GGBS, Flyash, Metakaolin, and so on, these mineral admixtures can be used to fully replace cement with some activators this mix of mineral admixtures and …

Optimization of Artifact Free Image Upscaling Using Genetic Algorithm
Abstract: Creating an upscaled image from a low-resolution (LR) image to high resolution (HR) is very interesting. The nature and texture of an image should be maintained during upscaling of an image. This upscaling is also termed as “super-resolution”. It is related to both, statistical relationships between low-resolution and high-resolution. Several methods have been proposed to obtain better results, involving simple heuristics, edge modeling or statistical learning. The most powerful ones, …
