DESIGN OF RIGID PAVEMENT AND ITS COST-BENEFIT ANALYSIS BY USAGE OF VITRIFIED ...IAEME Publication
A country can achieve sustainable and rapid growth in all fields by improving its connectivity and transit systems. Connectivity of people to resources by improved transit mechanism results in improved living standards. Apart from other means, the major part of connectivity of any country is through road systems. Well designed and maintained pavements provide better and long lasting service. In India, all the major road systems are designed as flexible pavements only, because of their ease of construction and less time it takes to be opened to traffic operations. The major problem with flexible pavements is their design life and high maintenance costs. Also, globally reducing petrol reserves, which are used for bitumen and asphalt production are also increasing the need for alternatives. To tackle these problems, rigid pavements can be constructed. Although the cost of construction of rigid pavements is high, its long life, high load carrying capabilities and low maintenance cost will balance the initial cost aspect. Recently, many studies are being conducted on different pozzolanic admixtures which can be used as partial replacement of cement in rigid pavements, thereby reducing its cost and enhancing properties of the mix. Here, an attempt is made to reduce the construction cost of rigid pavements by incorporating Vitrified Polish Waste (VPW) as partial cement replacement in proportions of 5% for M40 grade concrete. Further, to enhance flexural properties of pavement, Recron fibre is added to optimum VPW in increments of 0.1%, then after C.C pavement is designed for two lane two way national highway and cost benefit analysis is performed.
An Trial Investigation on Fibre Reinforced Concrete Using Throw Away Polymer ...ijtsrd
The increasing amount of waste material from industry is a about reality that has began the sustainability complications of the environment and ecology of earth surface. The production of fibre within the industry accounts for the worldwide warming by releasing the CO2 and other harmful gases within the atmosphere during its manufacturing. It additionally method waste on the time of producing and the use of at the field. Therefore, formulation of concrete with industrial waste can help in minimizing the environmental and ecological problems. In this look at fibre waste polypropylene fibre become used as an extra cloth of cement concrete. Polypropylene fiber PPF is a artificial hydrocarbon polymer which become introduced to beautify the power of the concrete i.e. compressive and split tensile strength. In this study, we prepared number of specimens by varying percentage of commercial waste polypropylene fiber i. e. 0 , 0.25 , 0.5 , 0.75 and 1.00 . The density of Fibre ferroconcrete FRC was tested immediately after preparing the concrete mix whereas the compressive strength and therefore the split lastingness of the Fibre ferroconcrete FRC were tested after 7 and 28 days of curing. Results indicate that the density of fresh Fibre Reinforced Concrete FRC slightly or negligibly decreases from 2397 kg cm3 to 2393 kg cm3 with the addition of polypropylene fiber. The addition of waste polypropylene fiber increases the strength of Fibre ferroconcrete FRC for all curing ages up to a particular point. After that, there may be an abrupt discount within side the electricity of the Fibre Reinforced Concrete FRC . The addition of 0.5 polypropylene fiber is suggested for the maximum strength with minimum coefficient of brittleness. The addition of 0.5 waste polypropylene fibre increase the compressive strength around 10 and 17 split tensile strength of the Fibre Reinforced Concrete FRC .

Hierarchical Digital Twin of a Naval Power SystemKerry Sado
A hierarchical digital twin of a Naval DC power system has been developed and experimentally verified. Similar to other state-of-the-art digital twins, this technology creates a digital replica of the physical system executed in real-time or faster, which can modify hardware controls. However, its advantage stems from distributing computational efforts by utilizing a hierarchical structure composed of lower-level digital twin blocks and a higher-level system digital twin. Each digital twin block is associated with a physical subsystem of the hardware and communicates with a singular system digital twin, which creates a system-level response. By extracting information from each level of the hierarchy, power system controls of the hardware were reconfigured autonomously. This hierarchical digital twin development offers several advantages over other digital twins, particularly in the field of naval power systems. The hierarchical structure allows for greater computational efficiency and scalability while the ability to autonomously reconfigure hardware controls offers increased flexibility and responsiveness. The hierarchical decomposition and models utilized were well aligned with the physical twin, as indicated by the maximum deviations between the developed digital twin hierarchy and the hardware.

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.
