This document summarizes an experimental study on using fiber-reinforced concrete for rigid pavements. The study tested different fiber mixtures to improve the tensile strength and properties of concrete used in rigid pavements. Specifically, the study tested mixtures of steel fibers and polypropylene fibers individually and in hybrid combinations at varying fiber percentages. The results showed that adding fibers increased the compressive, split tensile, and flexural strengths of the concrete. A hybrid mixture of 0.3% steel fibers and polypropylene fibers produced the optimum results with a 20% reduction in required pavement thickness while maintaining load capacity.

EXPERIMENTAL STUDY OF RETROFITTED RC BEAMS USING FRPAM Publications
In order to improve the performance of reinforced cement concrete structure (RCC) it is better to repair or upgrade the structure by retrofitting. Retrofitting is one of the best options to make an existing inadequate building safe against future probable earthquake or other environmental forces. Retrofitting is the modification of existing structure to make them more resistance to seismic action, motion of ground and failure of soil due to earthquake or other natural calamities such as tornadoes cyclones and winds with high velocity caused by thunder storm, snow fall, hailstorms, etc. The study investigate the improvements in the structural behaviour of the RC beams retrofitted with various types of FRP such as glass fibres, coir fibres, banana fibres, jute fibres and cotton fibres. The experimental programme includes strengthening and flexural strength test of 18 simply supported RC beams of 500x100x100 mm. The test results showed an increase in ultimate load for the retrofitted beam when compared to normal control beam and corresponding increase in the value of modulus of rupture. The retrofitted beams with glass fibre using epoxy as binder having 47.32% more strength than the control beams. Area under load-deflection curve gives toughness. Toughness value is found to be more in RC beams retrofitted with banana fibre.

Indirect Tensile Strength of Modified Bitumen Mixturedbpublications
The performance of flexible pavements depends on bituminous mixture and external factors such as traffic loading and weather conditions. Bitumen mixture is elastic, viscoelastic and plastic material where rate of traffic loading and weather conditions plays very significant role on its behavior .Conventional bitumen mixture is unable bear the present traffic volume and environmental conditions by considering this an attempt has been made to study the indirect tensile strength of modified bitumen mixture using cellulose fiber as a modifier. Higher tensile strength resist the cracks, fatigue and rutting which are common failure in the flexible pavements. For preparation of bituminous concrete mixture (BC) gradation has been taken as per MORTH (table no: 500-18) specification. Bitumen content is optimized at 5% and cellulose binder content has been varied such as 1%, 3% and 5% of total mix. Conducted different types of tests such as penetration, ductility, softening point and indirect tensile strength . It has been observed that the behavior of asphalt cement after adding the modifier differ from percentage to another, At 5% an ideal improvement to the fatigue and rutting resistance properties of the asphalt cement in terms of indirect tensile strength as compared with 1%,2% of modifier and conventional bitumen . The addition of 5% Cellulose is found more significant.

Fiber Reinforced Polymer FRP as an external reinforcement is used extensively to deal with the strength requirements related to flexure and shear in structural systems. But the strengthening of members subjected to torsion is explored only recently. Torsion failure is an undesirable brittle form of failure which should be avoided specially in the earthquake prone areas. In the present work, the behavior and performance of rectangular reinforced concrete beams strengthened with externally bonded Fiber Reinforced Polymer FRP fabrics subjected to combined flexure and torsion is studied experimentally. Three sets of concrete cylinders were tested for their ultimate strengths. In SET I three concrete cylindersF1 Without wrap FRP, F2 Single wrap FRP, F3 Double wrap FRP F1, F2 and F3 are tested.

Abstract
Road Infrastructure is an important driving force to achieve rapid and sustained economic growth in the changing technological innovation. A decent road system has an essential bearing on the monetary development of the nation. It is the obligation of roadway designer to keep concrete roads in activity commendable state by keeping pace with the fast extension and fortifying of the road arrangement yet they are experiencing issues to keep the roads in great condition. Consequently road development in our nation will be a ceaseless procedure, with concrete road reinforcing to be a real action for a long time to come. When rigid pavements are built, the mix design of concrete is focused around the compressive quality, which is utilized to guarantee that the target flexural quality as visualized in outline is attained to by and by, however exorbitant in beginning speculation, is modest in long run in light of low upkeep costs.
This paper deals with experimental investigation on mechanical properties of M40 grade concrete by incorporating hooked end steel fibres in dosages of 2%, 2.5% and 3.0% by weight of cement into the mix. A comparative analysis has been carried out for conventional concrete to that of the hooked end steel fibre reinforced in relation to compressive and flexural strengths.
Keywords: Hooked end steel fibre, Concrete Mix Design, Compressive Strength, Flexural Strength.
CFD Simulation of By-pass Flow in a HRSG module by R&R Consult.pptxR&R Consult
CFD analysis is incredibly effective at solving mysteries and improving the performance of complex systems!
Here's a great example: At a large natural gas-fired power plant, where they use waste heat to generate steam and energy, they were puzzled that their boiler wasn't producing as much steam as expected.
R&R and Tetra Engineering Group Inc. were asked to solve the issue with reduced steam production.
An inspection had shown that a significant amount of hot flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes, where the heat was supposed to be transferred.
R&R Consult conducted a CFD analysis, which revealed that 6.3% of the flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes without transferring heat. The analysis also showed that the flue gas was instead being directed along the sides of the boiler and between the modules that were supposed to capture the heat. This was the cause of the reduced performance.
Based on our results, Tetra Engineering installed covering plates to reduce the bypass flow. This improved the boiler's performance and increased electricity production.
It is always satisfying when we can help solve complex challenges like this. Do your systems also need a check-up or optimization? Give us a call!

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.
