This document summarizes a study on the dynamic tensile testing of fabric-cement composites. Three types of fabric-cement composites were tested under high strain rates: AR-glass fabric composite, PE fabric composite, and carbon fiber composite. The testing found that carbon fiber composite exhibited the highest strength and stiffness. Differences in tensile behavior were observed between the composites. Multiple cracking was observed in all composites except the PE composite with plain cement matrix. The results demonstrate the reliability of using high-speed tensile testing for cement-based composites.
A Study of Pulse by Pulse Microscale Patch Transfer Using Picosecond LaserIJERA Editor
The shape restoring capability of Ti/Ni has potential to overcome the shrinkage of polymer in mould cavity, which has potential of solving the demoulding problems and helps dimension accuracy in micro/nano injection molding. However, the deposition of Ti/Ni film precisely and securely on specific location of the micro mould cavity present difficulties with conventional deposition methods. In this paper, the use of photonic impact forward transfer method to deposit Ti/Ni film patches on specific locations of a substrate is demonstrate using a picosecond laser. Pulse by pulse deposition control parameters affecting position accuracy and spot size were studied in this paper. It was found that although laser power, and distance between donor films and the substrate all influence the spot sizes of pulse by pulse deposited patches, adjusting spot size by changing laser power is better than changing distance due to separated particles being found around the deposited film patches. Results of this study proved the feasibility of depositing Ti/Ni film patches on specific location using pico-second laser with high position accuracy. The potential of using photonic impact forward transfer as a complementing method to laser powder 3D printing of difficult to process material to produce better surface quality microproducts such as micro moulds for micro-injection molding is tremendous.
SLIDING WEAR OF AA6061/CARBON BLACK METAL MATRIX COMPOSITESIAEME Publication
In this study, the effects of carbon black amount on fracture and wear behaviors of AA6061-carbon black metal matrix composites produced by stir casting route were investigated. Wear tests were performed in a pin on type wear apparatus under different loads of 10, 20, 30 N with different sliding speeds of 2, 3 and 4 m/s, at three different sliding distances of 500, 750 and 1000 m. The design of experiments was carried out as per Taguchi technique. Wear rate function was determined in terms of volume fraction, normal load, sliding speed and sliding distance. It was found that there was a good agreement between the theoretical and the experimental value of wear rate. Maximum sliding wear of 68.72% was attributed sliding distance. Sliding wear resistance increases by 42.56% for AA6061/30%CB metal matrix composites as compared to the matrix alloy AA6061
Non Linear Finite Element Method of Analysis of Reinforced Concrete Deep BeamIJMER
ABSTRACT: This paper describes analysis of deep beams subjected to two point loading with three different L/D ratios
(1.5, 1.6, 1.71) using Non-linear Finite element method (ANSYS 9.0 software) in order to investigate the stress and strain
distribution pattern at mid-section of the beam. In ANSYS 9.0 software, SOLID 65 and LINK 8 element represent concrete
and reinforcing steel bars. Non-linear material properties were defined for both elements .Using ANSYS software Flexural
Strains and Stresses were determined at mid-section of the beam and shear stresses near the support of the beam. Also the
failure crack-patterns were obtained. Variation of flexural stresses and strains, shear stresses were plotted. It was found that
the smaller the span/depth ratio, the more pronounced is the deviation of strain pattern at mid-section of the beam.

EXPERIMENTAL STUDY ON FLEXURAL BEHAVIOR OF THE SELF-COMPACTING CONCRETE WITH ...IAEME Publication
This Research studies, In recent years, Self-compacting concrete (SCC) can be considered as a concrete which has little resistance to flow so that it can be placed and compacted under its own weight with little or no vibration effort, yet possesses enough viscosity to be handled without segregation or bleeding. Several tests such as slump flow, V-funnel, L-box has carried out to determine optimum parameters for the self-compatibility of mixtures. In this article SCC plain and
SCC hybrid fibres has compared. The current study includes a practical program considers the effect of adding Nylon e-300 fibre and Nylon tuff fibre to structural behavior of self-compacting concrete such as compressive strength and flexural strength behavior represent by mix proportion-strength
curves.

Ferro cement
The term Ferro cement is most commonly applied to a mixture of Portland cement and sand applied over layers of woven or expanded steel mesh and closely spaced small-diameter steel rods. It can be used to form relatively thin, compound curved sheets to make hulls for boats, shell roofs, water tanks, etc. It has been used in a wide range of other applications including sculpture and prefabricated building components. The term has been applied by extension to other composite materials including some containing no cement and no ferrous material. These are better referred to by terms describing their actual contents.

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.
Quality defects in TMT Bars, Possible causes and Potential Solutions.PrashantGoswami42
Maintaining high-quality standards in the production of TMT bars is crucial for ensuring structural integrity in construction. Addressing common defects through careful monitoring, standardized processes, and advanced technology can significantly improve the quality of TMT bars. Continuous training and adherence to quality control measures will also play a pivotal role in minimizing these defects.

32. Conclusions
High speed tensile tests of three types of fabric-cement composites
were performed. A fairly uniform tensile behavior was clearly observed
of all composite systems, demonstrating the reliability of the high
speed test method for testing cement-based composites.
A good correlation was found between the properties of the
composites and the fabrics. The fabric with the highest performance
provides the best composite behavior in the high-rate tensile test, in
this study it is carbon fabric. Differences in tensile behavior of the
various composites were recorded indicating differences in the role of
each fabric as reinforcements under high speed loading.
A multiple cracking behavior was observed for all the fabric-cement
composites except the PE composite with the matrix of plain cement.
