Country | : | India |
Authors | : | Mr. Shibashish P. Mukherjee || Dr Gaurang Vesmawala || Mr. Sanjay C Shah |
Abstract: The utilization of supplementary cementation materials is well accepted, since it leads to several possible improvements in the concrete composites, as well as the overall economy. The present paper is an effort to quantify the strength of ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS) at various replacement levels and evaluate its efficiencies in concrete. Cement with GGBS replacement has emerged as a major alternative to conventional concrete and has rapidly drawn the concrete industry attention due to its cement savings, energy savings, cost savings, environmental and socio-economic benefits. Today's construction industry, use of concrete is going on increasing rapidly............

Country | : | Ghana |
Authors | : | Prince Owusu-Ansah || Alex Frimpong Justice || Timothy Alhassan || Saviour Kwame Woangbah |
Abstract: This paper discusses the control of magnetic flux density in active magnetic bearings. The rotor is laminated in which the magnetically active part of the rotor is built with stacks of disk consisting of shaped layers of ferromagnetic sheets which are electrically insulated from each other. The use of different applications of control measures depending on its application, linearity, measuring range, resolution, sensitivity as well as its frequency range causes the output signal of its sensors to change according to its physical effect as a function of the measured quantity during the process of measurements..:...........

Abstract: Hydroxyapatite Ca10(PO4)6.OH2 (HAp), known for bioactive fixation with the surrounding bone tissues, is one of the most studied and used material for implants. The brittle behavior of HAp due to lower fracture toughness under mechanical loads is improved by addition of a ceramic second phase such as Al2O3, SiC, ZrO2, etc. There is a need to focus on the microstructure of such reinforced biomaterials to understand the relationship between their established mechanical behavior and the microstructure.:...........

Abstract: Experimental study has been carried out using methyl esters of corn oil and rice branoilas fuel blend at the most recommended blending ratio of 20% biodiesel with conventional diesel fuel as alternative fuel for dieselengine. The effect of fuel injection pressure on diesel engine performance using B20 blend in comparison with that using neat diesel fuel is studied. Preliminary experiments regarding the analysis of fuel properties indicate that oils are heated up to the temperature of 50–60 °C during process of transesterification. This is necessary to reduce high viscosity of oils as compared with that of neat diesel fuel..:...........

However there are no studies of quality of concrete plant wastewater. and the activities in which water can be used. This paper aim to evaluate the quality of concrete plant wastewater and to propose guidelines for its treatment for non potable application. The type of water used for the mixing did not affect the concrete slump and density. However setting time were found to increase with water quality deteriorating. Because of scarcity of potable water it is very important to use this treated waste water in concrete in our industry...:...........

Authors | : | Venko G. Vitliemov || Ivelin V. Ivanov || Ivan A. Loukanov |
Abstract: An approach for interactive bi-criteria smoothing of experimental data is proposed using the system (S-G) filter of Salvitzky-Golay. An optimization problem is formulated with the controversial criteria: "total absolute error" and "integral smoothness". For the choice of adjusting parameters of the filter – the degree of the approximation of polynomial and the number of the supporting points is used. A Pareto-optimal solution set is determined for this problem. Then subsets of Pareto-optimal solutions are found by employing the -selection method, which are aranged by their extended efficiency..:...........

Title | : | Study of age factor of concrete upto 180 days |
Country | : | India |
Authors | : | Mr. Mayur Ashok Jadhav || Dr. V. M. Inamdar |
Abstract: This paper deals with the effective utilization of waste material in concrete production as a partial replacement for Cement. Concrete is the most widely used construction material in civil engineering industry because of its high structural strength and stability. The concrete industry is looking for supplementary cementitious material or industrial by product with the objective of reducing the carbon dioxide emission which is harmful to environment which is produced by cement manufacturing company...:...........

Title | : | Bio-Cng as Transportation Fuel for Automobiles |
Country | : | India |
Authors | : | K.Sunil || MohammedFazilhussian || Ch.Saipriya || P.Bharathkumarreddy |
Abstract: Bio gas is the natural gas which is produced by anaerobic digestion of the organic mass or biodegradable matter. It can be used as a fuel in order to supply energy .This paper deals with the production of biogas from different sources and its conversion into BIO CNG which can be replaced with the current fossil fuels so that the automobiles can be energized, Simultaneously this also helps in the reduction of emissions of harmful gases into the environment which leads to sustainable living of the mankind. .:...........

Title | : | Reliability and Safety Aspect of Active Magnetic Bearings Applications |
Country | : | West, Africa |
Authors | : | Prince Owusu-Ansah || Philip Kwabena Agyeman || Timothy Alhassan || Saviour Kwame Woangbah. |
Abstract: This research work discusses reliabilityand safety aspectof active magnetic bearings applications in high industrial rotational machinery. A structure of the smart machine presented in this research work demonstrates a schematic method of improving industrial machinery performance by the use of active magnetic control technology. The smart machine consists of a tool of three main parts, the actual mechatronics system, the real machine with processor sensor, the actuators and thecontroller. In this study the rotor is used as a machine tool for the magnetic bearing............

Title | : | Analysis of (Multi Village) Rural Regional Piped Water Supply Scheme - A case study |
Country | : | India |
Authors | : | Vaishali Bharambe || Dr.A.S.Wayal |
Abstract: Rural water supply systems that cover more than one village are becoming increasingly common in India. Multi-village water supply schemes have the potential to capture economies of scale and to facilitate higher levels of service, and they appear to offer a feasible and long-term solution to the acute water scarcity faced by many regions in India. The challenges of providing sustainable access to rural water services in developing countries often go far beyond that of the technology itself. Aghai rural regional water supply scheme includes 24 habitations of Bhiwandi and SahapurTakula............
