Aniket Gavde , Tejas patil · M.Tech. student, Civil department, Parul University, Vadodara, IN

📄 View / Download PDF 📄 View Details

Abstract Self compacting concrete is a latest trend in concrete technology because of ability to compact under its own weight and also due to its high resistance of segregation and bleeding; by using such kind of concrete in construction work economy can be achieved due to elimination in vibration and compaction. In this research the results show that for constant flow ability of the SCC, replacement of super plasticizer with guar gum requires an increase in water/powder ratio and a reduction in super plasticizer dosage. Both additions degraded the flow ability, consistence retention and hardened properties but not to a prohibitive extent. By limiting the content of guar gum powder not greater than 0.5% replacement of cement and by keeping super plasticizer content same as 0.8% of water gives better result than normal concrete in terms of strength. In this research Guar gum powder as viscosity modifying agent and super-plasticizer is used, by using particular amount of both admixtures higher compressive strength, flexural strength and split tensile strength can be achieved. Both admixtures are replaced with cement content which improves flowing ability and strengthening characteristics of concrete.

Abstract There is increase in fiber use in concrete for the structural applications from last few decades. There is demand of providing cost effective technique with this innovative material while offering improved structural properties. In this paper the simple flexural stress block is converted for hybrid fiber reinforced concrete.By using the standard experimental study of HyFRC, from the same model we found fiber index for HyFRC. Which can be used for HyFRC member design. The flexural model takes into consideration the fiber orientation with respect to loading axis and fiber distribution at the cracked section. The model is Elastic and perfect plastic model for compression and elastic constant post peak response of HyFRC in tension is considered. Hence a simplified flexural stress block for HyFRC to find the flexural capacity is proposed. The standard experimental study of HyFRC has been done. This experimental study is used for finding the fiber index for the HyFRC. The standard test on HyFRC in compression and flexure are carried out. The tests are conducted using constant aspect ratio (75) and volume fraction (1.25% and 1.75%) by varying steel fiber content and polypropylene fiber content. The fiber index is related with fiber parameters (Aspect ratio, Volume fraction) and concrete compressive strength. The compression tests are conducted on cubes and flexural test on prismatic beams. The analytical results are cross checked with experimental results. A design chart is also proposed to find the fiber parameters during flexural design of HyFRC rectangular member.

Retrofitting of Corrosion Effected Steel Bridge Members using Steel – CFRP Bonding Systems

Awadhesh Kumar , Rupali Vij · Associate Professor, IN

📄 View / Download PDF 📄 View Details

Abstract Most steel bridges need strengthening either due to prolonged exposure to severe corrosive environments or increase of live load in due course of time or to improve fatigue performance. The current techniques of retrofit of steel structures need heavy equipment and skilled manpower for installation/implementation of them. The use of fibre reinforced polymer sheets for repair and strengthening of RCC structures is well recognised but the relevance of FRP composites to steel structures has been limited. The use of FRP materials for the repair and rehabilitation of steel members has abundant benefits over traditional method of retrofit by bolting or welding of steel plates. Carbon Fibre Reinforced Polymers (CFRPs) have been preferred over other FRP materials for strengthening of steel structures due to higher stiffness of the former. The emergence of high modulus CFRP plates, which have elastic modulus higher than or comparable to that of steel is helpful in considerable load transfer from steel beams, prior to the yielding of steel. In CFRP strengthened structure, the behaviour of bonding joints between CFRP and steel plays a very important role. In CFRPsteel bonding, the weak link is epoxy adhesive.

In the present study, feasibility and effectiveness of adhesively bonded Carbon Fibre Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) sheets in retrofitting of steel member, with and without end anchor plates, affected by corrosion to be used in bridges, has been determined along with short term effect of further corrosion in extreme exposures.

Keywords: Control beams, CFRP strengthened beams, ultimate load, extreme exposure, wetting-drying cycles and epoxy adhesive.

Abstract In this study, the detailed experimental investigation was carried out to understand the effect of partial replacement of cement by Rice Husk Ash (RHA) and Silica Fume (SF) in various proportions, RHA varying from 15% to 30% and SF from 5% to 10%. The tests on hardened concrete were destructive in nature, which included compressive strength of cube (150 mm size) at 7, 28, 56 and 90 days of curing in water. Compressive strength tests were also carried out on cylinders of 150 mm diameter and 300 high at 7,28,56 and 90 days of curing in water to study slenderness effect. Flexural strength tests on prism of size 100 x 100 x 500 mm at 7, 28, 56 and 90 days of curing in water. Drop weight impact tests in accordance with ACI 544 were carried out on discs of size 150 mm diameter and 60 mm high. The tests results revealed the effects on the behaviour of concrete produced from partial replacement of cement with RHA and SF in different proportions on the mechanical properties of concrete such as compressive strength, flexural strength and impact resistance. Based on test results it is concluded that 25% cement replacement with RHA and 7.5% cement replacement by SF are the optimum level of replacements.

Keywords: Rice husk ash, silica fume, compressive strength, flexural strength, impact resistance and cement replacement in concrete.

Abstract Black cotton soil exhibit high swelling and shrinking when exposed to changes in moisture content and hence have been found to be most troublesome from engineering considerations. Black cotton soil is one of the major soil deposits of India, so there is a need of enhancing its geotechnical properties and make it suitable for the construction purpose. There have been many methods available to controlling the expansive nature of the soils. The stabilization of soil by adding different binding materials such as enzymes, biopolymers, emulsions, cement, lime, bitumen, etc. is the conventional and effective method for improving the geotechnical properties of soil. Treating the black cotton soil with nano-silica powder is one of the techniques to improve the behaviour of black cotton soil. Hence, in the present work, the experimentation is carried out to study the effect of adding nano-silica on geotechnical properties of black cotton soil especially Atterberg limits, compaction characteristics, unconfined compressive strength, CBR value and swelling pressure. Nano-silica was mixed with soil in three different percentages (i.e. 0.3, 0.6 and 0.9 % by weight of soil). Based on obtained results, in order to reach the maximum increase in strength parameters, the optimum nano-silica content occurs at 0.6 %.

Abstract Sheet hydroforming is one of the sheet metal forming processes used in industry to produce complex shapes with high limiting drawing ratio. In sheet metal hydroforming, controlled metal flow during the operation minimizes localized stress concentrations that may cause workpiece buckling or wrinkling. Sheet metal hydroforming is slower than traditional stamping, thus its use is limited to short runs of more highly specialized parts. Hydroforming is an unconventional processes of the metal forming that are used for forming metal sheet and tube thin walled elements, as other spatial elements.Technological forming processes by fluid are deep drawing, stretching, bending, extruding, tube forming. Hydroforming and other actions of plastic forming are based on the laws of plastic theory, balance of forces that are opposite to deformation. The success of hydroforming action depends on the processing parameters are forming force, the force of sheet metal holder, the frame, dimensions of workpiece and friction. Hydroforming analysis at the plasticity area is possible because of actual knowledge application on deformation processing for conventional or unconventional processing as the values of individual parameters can be compared. The fluid pressure intensification pressure system consists of a low-pressure, high flow rate filling system, along with a high pressure intensifier to raise the fluid pressure to forming levels. The forming fluid is water based and contains additives such as lubricants, drying agents and rust preventatives. In this paper presents hydromechanical forming processes.

Keywords: Fluid Pressure, hydromechanical forming, sheet hydroforming, deep drawing.

Hitesh Bheda , Prakruti Thakkar · Indus University, IN

📄 View / Download PDF 📄 View Details

Abstract Cloud Computing is a large pool of easily usable and accessible virtualized resources (such as hardware, development platforms and/or services). These resources can be dynamically reconfigured to adjust to a variable load (scale), allowing also for an optimum resource utilization. This pool of resources is typically exploited by a pay-per-use model in which guarantees are offered by the Infrastructure Provider by means of customized Service Level Agreements. Resource Provisioning is an important and challenging problem of Cloud Computing. It plays an important role in the performance of the entire system and also the level of customer satisfaction provided by the system. There are many resource provisioning techniques, both static and dynamic each one having its own advantages and also some challenges. These resource provisioning techniques used must meet Quality of Service (QoS) parameters like availability, throughput, response time, security, reliability etc., and thereby avoiding Service Level Agreement (SLA) violation. In this paper, survey on Static and Dynamic Resource Provisioning Techniques is made. Here we have taken Round robin algorithm as a resource allocation algorithm for dynamic resource provisioning.

Abstract Surface water flow and subsurface flow have traditionally been investigated separately and simulators have been developed over the years, to model each of these systems. Growing interest in conjunctive water management, and need for simulations of surface/subsurface flow and their interactions has lead to the linking of models of the respective domains. Groundwater is important and precious freshwater found under the earth's surface. For effective groundwater management, quantitative and qualitative status of groundwater is usually assessed using various groundwater models. However, these models usually suitable for major aquifers and application in minor aquifers are always lag behind due to the requirement of extensive and detailed groundwater data. Since all groundwater bodies are significantly important, GIS functionality was explored in this study to model groundwater using minimal and accessible input data. GIS was used to represent the subsurface geology particularly the aquifer system and to model groundwater flow. The model was used to estimate the groundwater recharge for the Gandhinagar, Gujarat area. This study of Gandhinagar area, using MODFLOW, showed pertaining to the eight layer of the calibrated model. The first layer is a thin soil cover layer of about 3 m uniform thickness. Top layer is kept under unconfined water Table condition, where as the next layers are given the scope of transforming between water Table to confined state and vice versa depending upon the fluctuation of the computed water level with respect to the bottom boundary of the top layer. Other layers are confined or semi-confined having soil type of sand and clay one after another. Model is calibrated with the steady state condition and validated for the transient conditions and groundwater flow condition and recharge analysis is carried out.

Abstract Microbial-induced calcite precipitation (MICP) is new upcoming method of ground improvement to increase strength and stiffness of soil. The improvement in soil occurs due to natural biogeochemical processes by introducing bacteria and cementation solution. This paper describes the application of eco-friendly MICP technique for improving unstable slopes. In the present study, unstable slopes (1H: 1V and 0.67H: 1V) were treated using bacteria (S. Pasteurii) and cementation solution (CaCl2 + Urea) at 2M concentration. The treated slopes were tested in a laboratory by conducting a model load test on slopes. The slope was treated by injecting MICP in a grid pattern of 50 mm x 50 mm. These unstable slopes were allowed to cure for the incubation period of 14 and 28 days. The results indicated that the unstable slope can be made stable after MICP treatment.
