CRITICAL REVIEW ON STRUCTURAL LIGHT WEIGHT CONCRETE
Concrete is widely used material across the world for construction of large structures. Due
to increase in industrialization and development of urban areas, high volume of resources is
required which are available naturally. This means high volume of resources is used worldwide
for production of concrete. To reduce the use of such resources and to decrease the negative
impact on environment, the uses of industrial waste and artificial aggregates as a replacement
of natural aggregates are increasingly used. Another focus required in material research is to
reduce the concrete weight density so that the effective dead load and seismic loads can be
lowered. The paper attempts to review the literature and present a state of art in making
lightweight concrete as reported till now for structural application

This experimental deals with floating concrete precast slab with addition of vermiculite and pumice. Buoyancy plays major role on floating objects. In order to design a floating concrete slab Light Weight Concrete (LWC) plays a prominent role in reducing the density and to increase the thermal insulation. Light weight concrete (LWC) is formed by Natural aggregate, synthetic light weight aggregate. Vermiculite is a light weight and cheap product because of its thermal resistance has become a valuable insulating material. The density of these concrete varies from 750 Kg/m³ to 2050 Kg/m³. Pumice is a natural graded light weight coarse aggregate which has a dry density of 1200 Kg/m³ to 1450 Kg/m. The light Weight Concrete (LWC) M20 using the light weight coarse aggregate as Pumice stone as a full replacement to 100%, light weight fine aggregate as Vermiculite as a replacement of fine aggregate to 75 %. The Cement (Ordinary Portland cement) is partially replaced by Fly Ash up to 50 % and some other mineral admixture are added which are Steel Fibre and Super plasticizer (SP 430) are added. An experimental work concludes in which the compression strength of conventional mix has higher strength and weight. Due to floating condition the specimen must have less density so, specific proportion has low density while comparing to other mix. Even though the mix 4 has low strength but it has low density and it is used in precast floating slab. The slab is designed to float above the datum line and with a load carrying capacity of 1.5 kN. The mix also yields on compressive and split tensile strength of 5.07 N/mm2 and 2.17 N/mm2.

Nitish+chalhotra(800922007) (1)
This document provides an introduction to self-compacting concrete (SCC). SCC is concrete that can be placed and consolidated under its own weight without vibration. It was developed in Japan in the late 1980s to address issues with adequate compaction. The key properties of SCC are high flowability and good cohesiveness. These properties allow SCC to fill forms and pass through reinforced areas without segregation or honeycombing. SCC offers advantages over traditional vibrated concrete such as faster construction, improved durability, better surface finish, and a safer working environment by eliminating vibration. While SCC provides benefits, it also has a higher material cost due to increased binder and chemical admixture contents required.

Concrete Durability and water resistance
Pudlo is a concrete admixture that modifies the microstructure of concrete to improve its durability. It reduces permeability, absorption, and diffusion by densifying the cement paste and reducing porosity and pore size. This makes concrete virtually water-tight and prevents ingress of chloride ions, carbon dioxide, water and other chemicals that can cause corrosion of steel reinforcement or chemical attacks on concrete. Pudlo also autogenously heals microcracks to further improve concrete's resistance to permeation and durability against various degradation mechanisms like corrosion, sulfate attack, and acid attack. Case studies and third party testing show that Pudlo modified concrete outperforms standard concrete in real world exposure conditions and infrastructure projects.

Climate change's impact on the planet forced the United Nations and governments to promote green energies and electric transportation. The deployments of photovoltaic (PV) and electric vehicle (EV) systems gained stronger momentum due to their numerous advantages over fossil fuel types. The advantages go beyond sustainability to reach financial support and stability. The work in this paper introduces the hybrid system between PV and EV to support industrial and commercial plants. This paper covers the theoretical framework of the proposed hybrid system including the required equation to complete the cost analysis when PV and EV are present. In addition, the proposed design diagram which sets the priorities and requirements of the system is presented. The proposed approach allows setup to advance their power stability, especially during power outages. The presented information supports researchers and plant owners to complete the necessary analysis while promoting the deployment of clean energy. The result of a case study that represents a dairy milk farmer supports the theoretical works and highlights its advanced benefits to existing plants. The short return on investment of the proposed approach supports the paper's novelty approach for the sustainable electrical system. In addition, the proposed system allows for an isolated power setup without the need for a transmission line which enhances the safety of the electrical network

Embedded machine learning-based road conditions and driving behavior monitoring
Car accident rates have increased in recent years, resulting in losses in human lives, properties, and other financial costs. An embedded machine learning-based system is developed to address this critical issue. The system can monitor road conditions, detect driving patterns, and identify aggressive driving behaviors. The system is based on neural networks trained on a comprehensive dataset of driving events, driving styles, and road conditions. The system effectively detects potential risks and helps mitigate the frequency and impact of accidents. The primary goal is to ensure the safety of drivers and vehicles. Collecting data involved gathering information on three key road events: normal street and normal drive, speed bumps, circular yellow speed bumps, and three aggressive driving actions: sudden start, sudden stop, and sudden entry. The gathered data is processed and analyzed using a machine learning system designed for limited power and memory devices. The developed system resulted in 91.9% accuracy, 93.6% precision, and 92% recall. The achieved inference time on an Arduino Nano 33 BLE Sense with a 32-bit CPU running at 64 MHz is 34 ms and requires 2.6 kB peak RAM and 139.9 kB program flash memory, making it suitable for resource-constrained embedded systems.
