Determination of Optimum Bitumen Content of Fibre Reinforced Bituminous ConcreteIJERD Editor
The proposed work presents the studies on stability, flow, and volumetric properties of fibre reinforced bituminous concrete in comparison with properties of conventional bituminous concrete .Marshall’s stability tests were conducted to determine optimum binder content of ordinary mix. By varying the amount of 10mm polypropylene fibre (4%,6%,8% and 10% by weight of bitumen) optimum fibre content was obtained as 5.33% by weight of binder. By varying the binder content (3.5%,4%, 4.5%, 5% and 5.5%) and keeping the optimum fibre content as constant, optimum bitumen content was determined (4.41% by weight of mix). The results indicate that addition of PP fibre increases the stability value and decreases the flow value.

Immunizing Image Classifiers Against Localized Adversary Attacksgerogepatton
This paper addresses the vulnerability of deep learning models, particularly convolutional neural networks
(CNN)s, to adversarial attacks and presents a proactive training technique designed to counter them. We
introduce a novel volumization algorithm, which transforms 2D images into 3D volumetric representations.
When combined with 3D convolution and deep curriculum learning optimization (CLO), itsignificantly improves
the immunity of models against localized universal attacks by up to 40%. We evaluate our proposed approach
using contemporary CNN architectures and the modified Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIFAR-10
and CIFAR-100) and ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Challenge (ILSVRC12) datasets, showcasing
accuracy improvements over previous techniques. The results indicate that the combination of the volumetric
input and curriculum learning holds significant promise for mitigating adversarial attacks without necessitating
adversary training.
Courier management system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
It is now-a-days very important for the people to send or receive articles like imported furniture, electronic items, gifts, business goods and the like. People depend vastly on different transport systems which mostly use the manual way of receiving and delivering the articles. There is no way to track the articles till they are received and there is no way to let the customer know what happened in transit, once he booked some articles. In such a situation, we need a system which completely computerizes the cargo activities including time to time tracking of the articles sent. This need is fulfilled by Courier Management System software which is online software for the cargo management people that enables them to receive the goods from a source and send them to a required destination and track their status from time to time.

This Part of BS 1881gives recommendationsfor the
determination of dynamic modulus of elasticity of plain
concrete in the laboratory using resonanceof vibration
in the longitudinat mode.
NOTE. The titles of the publications referred to in this standard
are listed on the inside back cover.
2 Definitions
For the purposes of this Part of BS 1881the definitions
given in BS 3683 : Part 4 and BS 6100 : Part 6 apply,
together with the following.
2.1 resonance. Condition in which the frequency of a
vibration applied to a body is equal to one of the natural
frequencies of vibration of that body.
NOTE. This concurrence of frequencies maximizes the amplitude
of vibration in the body.
2.2 longitudinal mode of vibration. Mode in which
compressionwaves travel through a prismatic specimen
in the direction parallel to its length.
NOTE 1. The waves are partially reflected by the end faces of
the specimen and thus travel to and fro within it.
NOTE 2. Other modes exist such as transverse and torsional.
2.3 fundamental frequency. Lowest resonantfrequency
at which a body will vibrate in a particular mode.
2.4 dynamic modulus of elasticity of concrete (ED1,
Ratio of the stress to that part of the strain corresponding
to elastic deformation only.
NOTE, The modulus obtained refers to the initial tangent to the
non-linear stresc/strain relationship for concrete, which does not
obey Hooke's Law, It is normally appreciably larger than the
statically measured value obtained by the method described
in BS 1881 : Part 121,
-
3 Applications
Measurement of dynamic modulus is most commonly used
for comparative testing of concretes in the laboratory and
for assessing degradation in durability tests, e.g. in freezing
and thawing tests.
4 Principle
An elastic or partially elastic body will vibrate if struck a
blow. Each body possesses many modes of vibration and
in geometrical bodies well defined modes may be identified.
This method is concerned only with identifying the funda-
mental longitudinal mode of vibration in concrete prisms.
The frequency a t which this vibration occurs depends
largely on the dynamic modulus of elasticity, density,
and length of the specimen.
5 Summaryof thetest method
A-variable frequency oscillator imparts an alternating force
to the specimen and the response is sensed by an accelero-
meter or vibration pick-up. The amplitude of vibrations is
monitored by an indicator and when a resonantfrequency
is reached, the indicator.shows the amplitude to be a t a
well defined maximum.
If this resonantfrequency is the fundamental frequency
it is related to the modulus of elasticity of the concrete
through the equation in clause 8.
6 Apparatus
6.1 Variablefrequency oscillator, providing a variable
narrow-bandsinusoidal output from 500 Hz to 20 kHz
with power adjustable from zero to at least 2 W.
The frequency of the oscillator output should be indicated
within an accuracy of f 0.5 %.
The output of a good quality oscillator tuned to a given
frequency should not contain more than 2 % of its ampli-
tude in the second and third harmonics of the frequency
and should have a stability within f 5 % of the operating
voltage.
6.2 Exciter, of which the part in contact with the specimen
should have a mass of not more than 0.2 % of the mass of
the specimen.
6.3 Pick-up, of which any part in contact with the
specimen should have a mass of not more than 0.2 % of
the mass of the specimen. The vibration pick-upshould
have no resonances at frequencies below 20 kHz.
6.4 Amplitude indicator, consisting of a voltmeter or
cathode ray oscilloscope incorporating appropriate
amplification facilities.
6.5 Support, consisting of a pair of horizontal steel bars
betweenwhich the specimen can be clamped. The width
of the contact area of the clamping bars should not exceed
one twentieth of the length of the specimen. The bars
can be positioned by threaded vertical rods attached to a
rigid baseboardwhich also carries the exciter and pick-up
mounting posts as shown in figure 1. The baseboardstands
on soft elastomeric pads on a rigid workbench to reduce
the effects of extrancous vibrations transmitted through
the laboratory floor.
Alternatively, the specimen may lie on a block of foam
rubber provided that the exciter and pick-up centrelines
are normal to the specimen's end faces.
6.6 Balance, of appropriate capacity to weigh the specimen
to the accuracy required by 7.2.
6.7 Verniercalliper, complying with BS 887, capable of
measuringthe lateral dimensions of the specimen to the
accuracy required by 7.2.

7 Methodsof testing laboratorymade
specimens
7.1 Preparation
The laboratory made specimens should be prisms of circular
or square section with a length not less than three nor
more than five times the maximum transverse dimension.
Specimens should preferably be beams made in accordance
with BS 1881 : Part 109and then cured in accordance
with BS 1881 : Part 11 1.
7.2 Preliminary measurements
Immediately before testing, the length and density of each
specimen should beobtainedfrom the following procedures.
(a) Length. Calculate the mean length, L, (in mm) from
at least four symmetrically placed measurements read
to an accuracy o f f 1 mm.
(b) Density. Weigh the specimen in air and record its
mass, MA, (in kg) to an accuracy of f 0.25 %.
Determine the volume, V, (in m3) of the specimen
either from its dimensions or by water displacement
as follows.
(1 Dimensions. For a beam, calculate the mean
width, a, and depth, 6, (in mm) from at least six
measurements of each dimension spaced equally
along its length read to an accuracy o f f 0.25 mm.
Then
For a cylindrical specimen, calculate the mean
diameter, d, (in mm) from at least six measuremehts
spaced equally along its length read to an accuracy
of f 0.25 mm. Then
V = Lba x IO-'
(2)Waterdisplacement, Weigh the specimen in water
and record its apparent loss in mass, MI, (in kg) to
an accuracy of f 0.25 %. Then
v = M ~ / p ,
pw is the density of water which may be taken as
where
1 kg/m3 at ambient temperature.
Method 2 should not be used for unsaturated
specimens.
Calculate the density, p, (in kg/m31 of the specimen
from the equation
p = MA/V.
1990
7.3 Measurementof resonantfrequency.
Specimens should be tested in a condition appropriate to
the purpose of the investigation.
Where specimens have been stored in water they should be
tested immediately on removalfrom the water, whilst they
are still saturated. Surfacewater and grit should be wiped
off the specimen.
The specimen should be clamped or balanced a t its centre
on the fixed support.
Contact should be made between the vibrating part of the
exciter and the centre of one end face of the specimen by
means of a weak adhesive or by gentle spring loading.
Contact should be made between a piezo-electricvibration
pick-up and the opposite end of the specimen in a similar
way, as indicated in figure I. Alternatively, an electro
magnetic non-contactingpick-upcan be used in accordance
with the manufacturer's recommendations. Ensure that the
axes of the transducersare in the centre of and normal to
the end faces of the specimen.
The exciter should be driven by the variable frequency
oscillator and the oscillations received from the pick-up
should be fed to the amplitude indicatorto show the
changes in amplitude received.
The frequency of excitation should be varied until a
resonance is obtained and the frequency noted. Resonance
will be recognizedwhen the amplitude indicatorshows a
peak response. As the frequency is further varied,
the indicatormay show the existence of several resonant
frequencies, some of these relatingto modes of vibration
other than longitudinal.
The identification of the fundamental frequency in the
longitudinalmode requires care. Generally the required
frequency producesthe greatest response on the indicator
for given settings of the output and gain controls. As a
check, with the specimen set up as shown in figure 1,
resonance should also be obtainable at a frequency three
times that of the fundamental frequency.
If difficulties are still encountered, an approximate value
for the dynamic modulus of elasticity of the concrete
may be obtained from a pulse transit time measurement
(see BS 1881 :Part 203). This value may then be
substituted into the equation in clause 8 to yield an
approximate value for the desired resonantfrequency.
The search for the exact frequency may then be confined
to a narrow range about the value so calculated.
Instrument manufacturer's literature sometimes provides
very useful instructions for identifying the fundamental
frequency. Once identified, this value should be recorded.
