This study evaluated the use of steel slag as a partial replacement for cement in concrete. Various concrete mixtures were produced with 0-20% replacement of cement with steel slag. The compressive strength, workability, and split tensile strength of the mixtures were then tested at 7, 14, and 28 days. The results showed that replacing 15% of cement with steel slag improved the compressive strength and split tensile strength compared to normal concrete. Workability was highest with 20% slag replacement. In conclusion, a 15% partial replacement of cement with steel slag produced concrete with enhanced strength properties and workability, indicating steel slag's potential as a sustainable cement replacement.

Abstract
Production of residues from industries and construction sector has increased during last few years. Much of these wastes have been thrown to land fill, without considering its potential for reuse and re-cycling as well. The aim of this practical work, is to study the properties and the respective strength that is (compressive strength) gained by M-20 Grade of concrete mix, prepared under controlled condition. The laborites test have follow the IS Standards. The results vary according to the proportions of supplementary constituent added to the mix. The substitution of cement concrete with basic oxygen furnace slag (BOFS) and then followed by iron cutting waste (ICW), produces a significant increase in compressive strength in both the cases i.e., by adding basic oxygen furnace slag & iron cutting waste.
The above said waste material not only makes the concrete mix prepared, suitable for use, but also improves the strength of mix and makes the mix economical as well. In the M-20 concrete mix, sand is replaced with BOF Slag and then with ICW in the varying range of 10%, 20% and 30% by weight. The test is carried out to evaluate the compressive strength of controlled M-20 Grade of mix after 7 and 28 days of casting.

Replacement of Natural Fine Aggregate With Air Cooled Blast Furnace Slag An I...IJERA Editor
The aim of the investigation is to replace natural fine aggregatewith Air Cooled Blast Furnace Slag in OPC concrete. At present, nearly million tons of slag is being produced in the steel plants, in India. The generation of slag would be dual problem in disposal difficulty and environmental pollution. Some strategies should be used to utilize the slag effectively. Considering physical properties of metallurgical slags and a series of possibilities for their use in the field of civil constructions, this report demonstrates the possibilities of using air cooled blast furnace slag as partial replacement of sand in concrete. A total of five concrete mixes, containing 0%, 12.5%, 25%, 37.5% and 50% partial replacement of regular sand with air cooled blast furnace slag are investigated in the laboratory. These mixes were tested to determine axial compressive strength, split tensile strength, and flexural strength for 7days, 28days, 56days and 90days.

Abstract Steel slag is a waste product generated during the production of steel. These wastes are disposed in the form of landfills causes an enormous amount of land pollution. So for the increasing demand to protect the normal environment, especially in build-up areas, the needs to use these wastes are very important. In this paper, two types of concrete mixes were prepared with the different mixes for each type i.e. low strength and high strength concrete namely M25 and M50 respectively. The compressive, split tensile and flexural properties of concrete containing steel slag are compared with that of concrete containing river sand and also manufactured sand. But in this paper only the effect of using granulated steel slag in concrete mixes as an fine agate on compressive strength and workability is discussed. The properties of steel slag are also verified with the addition of GGBS (Ground Granulated Blast Furnace slag) as a replacement for cement. Keywords: River sand, steel slag, OPC, GGBS, M Sand, compressive strength.

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.

Terzaghi's soil bearing capacity theory, developed by Karl Terzaghi, is a fundamental principle in geotechnical engineering used to determine the bearing capacity of shallow foundations. This theory provides a method to calculate the ultimate bearing capacity of soil, which is the maximum load per unit area that the soil can support without undergoing shear failure.
