Composite materials are becoming popular in various industries such as aerospace industry, automotive industry, and wind energy. We have seen global surge in the demand of composites particularly carbon fiber reinforced plastic (CFRP) composites, which has led to huge volume of manufacturing and end-of-life waste material. The most common way for disposing of composite waste is through landfills. However, current, and impending legislations such as Directive on Landfill of Waste, have limited the amount of composite waste permitted for landfilling. Also, for making of pristine carbon fiber requires high amount of energy if we compare it to other materials like steel and aluminium. This generates a need to find out a way to recycle and reuse the waste material or the end-of-life material in different sector applications. This study mainly focuses on the strength comparison of pristine(virgin) CFRP with recycled CFRP and conducting finite element analysis on some parts made from virgin and recycled material. Also, details about mechanical recycling, cost estimation for producing virgin material as well as for recycling the material must be taken into account.

Solid wastes are important environmental problem all over the World. Consumption
of the plastic solid waste covers big portion within the total solid waste. Although a numerous
plastic material is subjected to the recycling process, it is not easy to be destroyed by nature.
One of the recommended way to prevent is to utilize as an aggregate in cement-based material.
There are many researches on use of recycling rubber in concrete. However, studies on
recycling of waste electrical cable rubber (WECR) in concrete is insufficient although there are
many research on waste tyre rubbers in concrete. In this study, fine aggregate was replaced
with WECR which were 5%, 10%, and 15 % of the total aggregate volume in the concrete and
researched workability, unit weight, water absorption, compressive strength, flexural strength,
ultrasonic pulse velocity, modulus of elasticity, and abrasion resistance of concrete. As a result
of experimental studies, increase of WECR amount in concrete increases workability due to
lack of adherence between cement paste and WECR, and hydrophobic structure of WECR
while it influences negatively mechanical properties of concrete. It is possible to use WECR in
concrete taking into account the reduction in mechanical properties.
Composite materials have increased applications in many industries because of their excellent mechanical characteristics, such as strength-to-weight, stiffness-to-weight, corrosion resistance, fatigue and thermal expansion compared with metals. Carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) composite materials, among other fiber reinforced materials, have been increasingly replacing conventional materials with their excellent strength and low specific weight properties.
The presentation first discusses machinability of CFRP under traditional and nontraditional machining processes, then focuses on drilling and abrasive water jet machining processes.
In drilling process different of twist drills have been used, in order to examine the ability of high speed steel and explore carbide twist drill in drilling CFRP.
Abrasive water jet cutting process considered one of the most efficient cutting process done on CFRP, Slotting experiment has been done using AWJM and Analysis of variance (ANOVA) has been used to study and analyze the data of these experiment.

Structural Engineering Properties of Fibre Reinforced Concrete Based On Recyc...IJERA Editor
Glass fibre reinforced plastics (GFRP) based on resin recovered from recycling plastic waste has been shown to possess mechanical properties satisfying normative requirements. This paper investigates the flexural behavior of concrete beams reinforced with GFRP produced from resin recovered from recycled plastic wastes. A total of fifteen of beams of sizes 150 ×150 ×900mm and 100 × 100 × 500mm reinforced with GFRP made from recycled glass fibre reinforced polymer was tested. The flexural test results yielded lower ultimate load, lower stiffness and larger deflections at the same load when compared with the control steel reinforced beam. However, the ultimate flexural strength of beams, reinforced with GFRP from recycled resin was at least four times higher than that of the control unreinforced beam. This is in agreement, quantitatively and qualitatively, with the trend of these parameters in GFRP reinforced concrete based on virgin resins. The results therefore confirm the applicability for structural uses with the accompanying benefits of wealth creation, value addition and environmental sustainability.
As catastrophic bridge collapse accidents not only cause significant loss of property, but also have a severe social impact. Therefore, the structural health monitoring of bridges for damage detection by vibration analysis gets more attention. Reinforced concrete bridges are the most common and extended structures present in the worldwide. These structures are often characterized by Piers, Abutments, deck slabs. This paper looks on the work of modelling and analysis of bridge in STAAD.Pro software, and the specific bridge model is taken of a particular span. It is subjected to vary Young’s modulus (E) in the mid span of bridge deck slab to induce damage in order to obtain maximum bending moment, as the structural strength reduces. From the analysis Mu/bd2 values from SP 16 code is used to identify the damage on the bridge deck slab, then natural frequency of the bridge, mode shapes, variation of the deflection and node displacements of bridge deck slab under the action of static and dynamic load at different aspect ratios with original design parameters and at failure is carried out in this project.

Design for Additively Manufactured Structure An Assessmentijtsrd
"The design of lightweight structures realized via additive manufacturing has been drawing considerable amount of attentions in academia and industries for a wide range of applications. However, various challenges remain for AM lightweight structures to be reliably used for these applications. For example, despite extensive advancement with geometric design, there still lacks adequate understanding with the process material property relationship of AM lightweight structures. In addition, a more integrated design approach must also be adopted in order to take non uniform material design into consideration. In our works, a design approach based on unit cell cellular structure was taken in the attempt to establish a comprehensive design methodology for lightweight structures. Analytical cellular models were established to provide computationally efficient property estimation, and various design factors such as size effect, stress concentration and joint angle effect were also investigated in order to provide additional design guidelines. In addition, it was also found that the geometry and microstructure of the cellular structures are dependent on both the process setup and the feature dimensions, which strongly support the argument to establish a multi scale hierarchical cellular design tool.

Village agriculture is very important in Bangladesh. In emerging nations like our own, agriculture has a significant impact on national GDP. Basically, because of our current circumstances, the monsoons, which are agriculture's primary source of water, are insufficient. The irrigation system is used in agriculture as a solution to this issue. In this technique, the agricultural field will receive water depending on the type of soil. In agriculture, there are two factors to consider: the soil's moisture content and its fertility. There are already a variety of irrigation options available to lessen the demand for rain. An electrical power on/off schedule controls this kind of method. The use of IOT to create a smart irrigation system is covered in this article. Our method uses hydropumps to regulate multiple pumps at once, which saves time and energy. This system will have a significant impact on the national economy if we implement it.

For the agriculture sector, detecting and identifying plant diseases at an early stage is extremely important and
still very challenging. Machine learning is an application of AI that helps us achieve this purpose effectively. It
uses a group of algorithms to analyze and interpret data, learn from it, and using it, smart decisions can be
made. For accomplishing this project, a dataset that contains a set of healthy & diseased plant leaf images are
used then using image processing we extract the features of the image. Then we model this dataset with
different machine learning algorithms like Random Forest, Support Vector Machine, Naïve Bayes etc. The aim is
to hold out a comparative study to spot which of those algorithm can predict diseases with the at most
accuracy. We compare factors like precision, accuracy, error rates as well as prediction time of different
machine learning algorithms. After all these comparison, valuable conclusions can be made for this project.
Due to diagnosis problem in detecting lung Cancer, it becomes the most dangerous cancer seen in human being. Because of early diagnosis, the survival rate among people is increased. The prediction of lung cancer is the most challenging cancer problem, due to its structure of cells in human body. In which most of tissues or cells are overlapping on one another. Now-a-days, the use of images processing techniques is increased in growing medical field for its disease diagnosis, where the time factor plays important role. Detecting cancer within a time, increases the survival rate of patients. Many radiologists still use MRI only for assessment of superior sulcus tumors and in cases where invasion of spinal cord canal is suspected. MRI can detect and stage lung cancer and this method would be excellent of lung malignancies and other diseases.

As concrete is the most abundant material used in the world, it contains aggregate content of around 60 to 70 %. Since aggregate are being used rapidly there has been a scarcity in the avaibility of these materials. This research investigates the effect of partially replacing aggregates by burnt brick bats and lateritic fines in concrete respectively for M25 grade concrete. The incorporation is done for 5%, 10% and 15% of burnt brick bats for coarse aggregate and by talking 15% of lateritic fines as constant for fine aggregate by conducting compressive strength test which gave the optimum value of 15% for natural sand. The compressive strength, split tensile strength and flexural strength was conducted. The results showed density of of the concrete incorporating brick and laterite was lower compared to conventional concrete, the concrete with 5% burnt brick and 15% lateritic soil showed increased strength for 7 days compared to normal concrete but when 28 days test was conducted the strength was similar to conventional concrete. The split tensile and flexural strength of replaced concrete was found to be lower than the nominal concrete.
Natural resources are vanishing universal while at the similar time the generated wastes from the industry are
growing substantially. The sustainable development for construction requires the use of nonconventional and
innovative materials, and recycling of demolished and waste materials so to compensate the lack of natural
resources and to find alternative ways of conserving the environment. So, this paper presents the consequences
of an experimental study carried out to evaluate the power-driven properties of concrete mixtures in which fine
aggregate (sand) was swapped with Copper Slag (CS) while coarse aggregates were swapped by used and
recycled concrete coarse aggregate (RCA) from demolished structure or building. Both the coarse and fine
aggregate were replaced with percentages 0% (for the control mixture), 10%, 20%, 30%, of Copper Slag by
weight ratio. Tests were performed for properties of new concrete and toughened Concrete simultaneously.
Slump test was conducted to regulate the workability of the several design concrete mix. Compressive strength
and split tensile strength were determined at 7, 28 days of curing completely.
The results show that workability shrinkages slightly with rise in Copper Slag ratio, however workability for
the illustrations were within the prearranged boundary for M25 concrete. Test results shown substantial
enhancement in the strength assets of simple concrete by the insertion of CS alone whereas a reverse tendency
in observed for growing proportion of RCA in the illustration. The result of this study work displayed that
Copper slag in addition recycled concrete aggregate can be efficiently used in physical concrete as a standby of
coarse aggregate and fine aggregate (sand) respectively.
The world of manufacturing world is broadly classified into two main categories such as cold working and hot
working process. The process in the manufacturing world which is conducted above the recrystallization
temperature are called as hot working process while the process which is conducted below the recrystallization
temperature of the work piece is called cold working process.in the above categorization, the casting and
forging process is considered as the hot working process while other processes were kept under cold working
process category. The process for our review is forging and in our research paper, we are focusing on the
forging process, the types of forging process and the various parameters that are considered as a tool for the
process optimization of the forging.
The power supply system is completely hooked into three major parts. First one is generation, second one is
transmission and the last one is distribution of electricity supply at the range of 415V to 400V approx. But while
the fault occurs it affects other lines additionally, and this causes difficulties for local people and additionally
perturb the flow of current in different areas. This eccentric and perturbed supply of nuisance is very
hazardous as it cannot be ceased when it comes to equal distribution of electricity. The area suffering from
faults and the other both get affected. So to stop all these we have implemented this project of Coordination of
over current relay utilising optimisation technique. We have utilised crow search algorithms with Kennedy as
swarm perspicacity algorithms which are very auxiliary in storing excess electricity supply and can be used
when needed. With the avail of this we can renovate the potency supply and this will conclusively implement
our main objective of this project.
The classification of different types of tumors is of great importance in cancer diagnosis and its drug discovery. Cancer classification via gene expression data is known to contain the keys for solving the fundamental problems relating to the diagnosis of cancer. The recent advent of DNA microarray technology has made rapid monitoring of thousands of gene expressions possible. With this large quantity of gene expression data, scientists have started to explore the opportunities of classification of cancer using a gene expression dataset. To gain a profound understanding of the classification of cancer, it is necessary to take a closer look at the problem, the proposed solutions, and the related issues altogether. In this research thesis, I present a new way for Leukemia classification using the latest AI technique of Deep learning using Google TensorFlow on gene expression data.
In this project an automated greenhouse robot was built with the purpose of controlling the greenhouse
environment Parameters such as temperature and humidity. The microcontroller used to create the automated
greenhouse robot was an AT89s51. This project utilizes three different sensors, a humidity sensor, a Light
sensor and a temperature sensor. The 2sensors are controlling the two Relays which are a fan (for cooling) and
a bulb (for heating). The fan is used to change the temperature and the bulb is used to heat the plants. The
humidity control system and the temperature control system were tested both separately and together. The
result showed that the temperature and humidity could be maintained in the desired range.

performance of professors at all levels. COVID-19 stressors have put more impact on Assistant Professors,
Associate Professors and Professors performance than the organizational stressors in this study. Research and
publication seems to be the common stress for professors at all levels. Loss of family members due to pandemic
and reduction of salary are the common contributors of stress under COVID-19.
Softmax function is an integral part of object detection frameworks based on most deep or shallow neural
networks. While the configuration of different operation layers in a neural network can be quite different,
softmax operation is fixed. With the recent advances in object detection approaches, especially with the
introduction of highly accurate convolutional neural networks, researchers and developers have suggested
different hardware architectures to speed up the overall operation of these compute-intensive algorithms.
Xilinx, one of the leading FPGA vendors, has recently introduced a deep neural network development kit for
exactly this purpose. However, due to the complex nature of softmax arithmetic hardware involving
exponential function, this functionality is only available for bigger devices. For smaller devices, this operation is
bound to be implemented in software. In this paper, a light-weight hardware implementation of this function
has been proposed which does not require too many logic resources when implemented on an FPGA device.
The proposed design is based on the analysis of the statistical properties of a custom convolutional neural
network when used for classification on a standard dataset i.e. CIFAR-10. Specifically, instead of using a brute
force approach to design a generic full precision arithmetic circuit for SoftMax function using real numbers, an
approximate integer-only design has been suggested for the limited range of operands encountered in realworld
scenario. The approximate circuit uses fewer logic resources since it involves computing only a few
iterations of the series expansion of exponential function. However, despite using fewer iterations, the function
has been shown to work as good as the full precision circuit for classification and leads to only minimal error
being introduced in the associated probabilities. The circuit has been synthesized using Hardware Description
Language (HDL) Coder and Vision HDL toolboxes in Simulink® by Mathworks® which provide higher level
abstraction of image processing and machine learning algorithms for quick deployment on a variety of target
hardware. The final design has been implemented on a Xilinx FPGA development board i.e. Zedboard which
contains the necessary hardware components such as USB, Ethernet and HDMI interfaces etc. to implement a
fully working system capable of processing a machine learning application in real-time.
Flood is the most devastating environmental hazard throughout the world causing loss of precious human lives
and damage to infrastructure. They occur by unusual overflow of water over the banks of rivers or channels
thus inundating the surrounding area. The magnitude and intensity of floods depends on hydrological and
physical characteristics of the catchment and river channel. Adverse effects of these floods can be alleviated
through mapping of floodplain which is essentially the area around the channel which is likely to be flooded.
One of the methods of floodplain delineation is modeling the river flow using computer models such as the
Hydrologic Engineering Center River Analysis System (HEC-RAS). In this study the application of 2D HEC-RAS
river model is used to develop a floodplain map of river Kabul.
Alur Ilmu is a concrete-cement drainage canal built since the construction of the Universiti Kebangsaan
Malaysia in 1970s for rain, storm, and groundwater; flowing towards the main discharge point that joins the
Langat River Selangor. In this study, water quality parameters (i.e. DO, BOD, COD, Ammoniacal Nitrogen, TSS,
pH) and heavy metal (i.e. Zinc, Cadmium, Copper, Plumbum, Manganese, Ferum, Chromium, Nickel) were
assessed along the Alur Ilmu canal at five stations from upstream to downstream and compared with Malaysian
Water Quality Index. Overall, all the research stations were in Class III (slightly polluted), and there were
highly significant differences for all the water quality parameters (p <0.001) across five stations except for BOD,
COD and TSS. The concentration means of heavy metals analyzed were below the recommendation of Standard
for Water and Packaged Drinking Water (Food Act 1985) for Malaysia except for Fe (>0.30 mg/L) and Mn
(>0.001 mg/L). However, the mean concentration of Fe and Mn in Alur Ilmu were still acceptable by USEPA; Mn
(<0.50 mg/L) and Fe (<1.0 mg/L). In conclusion, this study gives a baseline toward future better conservation
and management of Alur Ilmu as it has potential as cultural identity and recreational uses in UKM.
The compressive strength, flexural strength, and split tensile strength of Reactive Powder concrete are all
investigated in this study (RPC). The lack of ductility in ordinary concrete is considered a key concern in this
research. RPC is being explored as a solution for the aforementioned challenge as the building industry's
technology advances. Cement, sand, water, admixture, and superplasticizer are all included in the RPC. The
reactive powder concrete mixture is made by changing the percentages of super plasticizer (2%, 3% and 4%),
silica fumes (10%, 20%, and 30%), while maintaining the dose of quartz powder constant. At the outset of this
study, compressive strength, flexural strength, and split tensile strength targets of 140-160Mpa, 20-30Mpa, and
15-20Mpa were set. However, due to a change in material qualities that were locally accessible and of low
quality, the results produced after the investigation were unsatisfactory to get the findings, the RPC was mixed,
cast, cured, and tested in the concrete laboratory using three different mix proportions.
150mmX150mmX150mm cube, 500mmX100mmX100mm beam, and 150mm diameter and 300mm height
cylinder are all made of fresh concrete. The casted RPC is then cured in a water tank at room temperature for 7,
14, and 28 days before being oven dried for 24 hours at 60 degrees Celsius. The final results were documented
and discussed, as well as conclusions and recommendations based on the findings.
The main purpose of this project is to create a face recognition-based group action observance system for
establishment to boost and upgrade the present group action system into additional economical and
effective as compared to before. the present recent system encompasses a heap of equivocation that
caused imprecise and inefficient of group action taking several issues arise once the authority is unable
to enforce the regulation that exist within the recent system. The technology operating behind are the
face recognition system. The external body part is one of the natural traits which will unambiguously
determine a personal. Therefore, it's accustomed track down specification because the possibilities for a
face to diverge is low. Face data collections are created to pump information into the recognizer formula.
Then, throughout the group action taking session, faces are compared against the information to hunt for
identity. Once a personal is known, its group action is taken down automatically saving necessary data

inter-sequence stopped days through use of anti-prolactin agent (Bromocriptine) and serum from laying hen.
Sixty-four indigenous (deshi) chickens of 20-22 weeks of age, were randomly assigned into four groups (i, j, k
and l) and each group consisting of 16 hens. Control was designated as Group I and Bromocriptine orally at a
dose of 641μg/bird/day was used to treat group j, group k was treated with serum of laying kadhaknath hen
serum at a dose of 1 ml intramuscularly/bird/day and group l was treated with both Kadhaknath serum and
Bromocriptine at doses given to group j and k for the period of 15 March, 2019 to 16 June, 2019 and egg
production, stopped days, prolactin level, hematological parameter and egg qualities were observed. A
significant increase (p<0.05) in Egg production was noticed in all treated groups in comparison to the groups
which were in non- treated control and group k showed the highest production. All treatment groups depicted a
significant decrease (p<0.05) in stopped days and prolactin levels and lowest were observed in hens of group l.
In hematological values between the chicken group, no significant differences were noticed. The present study
reveals that combined treatment with Bromocriptine and serum from laying kadhaknath hen increases egg
production without affecting the health of indigenous chickens.

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!

ABSTRACT
Composite materials are becoming popular in various industries such as aerospace industry, automotive
industry, and wind energy. We have seen global surge in the demand of composites particularly carbon fiber
reinforced plastic (CFRP) composites, which has led to huge volume of manufacturing and end-of-life waste
material. The most common way for disposing of composite waste is through landfills. However, current, and
impending legislations such as Directive on Landfill of Waste, have limited the amount of composite waste
permitted for landfilling. Also, for making of pristine carbon fiber requires high amount of energy if we
compare it to other materials like steel and aluminium. This generates a need to find out a way to recycle and
reuse the waste material or the end-of-life material in different sector applications. This study mainly focuses
on the strength comparison of pristine(virgin) CFRP with recycled CFRP and conducting finite element analysis
on some parts made from virgin and recycled material. Also, details about mechanical recycling, cost estimation
for producing virgin material as well as for recycling the material must be taken into account.
Keywords: Composite, Pristine, Recycle, Estimation.
I. INTRODUCTION
Carbon Fiber
Fibers of the size 5 to 10 micrometers in diameter and composed mostly of carbon atoms are called Carbon
fibers which has several advantages including high stiffness, high tensile strength, low weight to strength ratio,
high chemical resistance, high temperature tolerance and low thermal expansion. These properties have made
carbon fiber very popular in aerospace, civil engineering, military, and motorsports. Carbon fibers are relatively
expensive than similar fibers like glass fiber, basalt fibers, or plastic fibers.
Carbon fibers are produced by bonding of carbon atoms together in crystals that are aligned parallel to the long
axis of the fiber because the crystal alignment gives the fiber high strength-to-volume ratio (in other words, it is
strong for its size). Thousands of carbon fibers are bunched together to form a tow, which can be either used by
itself or woven into a fabric.
Composites are made by combining carbon fibers with other materials. By permeating with a plastic resin and
baking, carbon-fiber-reinforced polymer (often referred to as carbon fiber) are formed which has a very high
strength-to-weight ratio and is extremely rigid being little brittle. Carbon fibers are also composited with other
materials, like graphite, to form reinforced carbon-carbon composites, to have a very high heat tolerance.
Mechanical recycling
One of the most mature recycling technologies is mechanical recycling. It is widely used in industries for
recycling waste composites, carbon fibre & glass fibre reinforced plastic. After size reduction, the material is
ground in a hammer mill and graded into different lengths. Using mechanical recycling, CFRP wastes are
reduced to two parts: resin powder and a fibrous fraction, which are generally used as fillers in economical
materials, such as bulk moulding compound / sheet moulding compound.

Advantages of Mechanical Recycling:
It is simple process as compared to other methods.
It has less impact on environment.
The equipment used in mechanical recycling remains same even if the material to be recycled changes.
Very small number of changes need to be done for recycling different materials or for changing the input
parameters.

Major limiting factors in the large-scale use of carbon fiber (CF) in manufacturing sector is its very high cost.
Main elements of this higher cost involved in manufacturing the carbon fiber have been formalized into the cost
model so that it can facilitate the overall understanding of these factors. In fact, it can play a key role in
manufacturing CF in a cost-effective method. This cost model consists mainly two parts, the fixed cost and the
variable costs involved in all stages of manufacturing, in addition to the consideration for price variability of
other balance elements like raw materials, energy consumption, maintenance cost etc.
Now since all the costs that go into manufacturing the carbon fiber have been taken into calculations from the
cost model, the result must be compared to the known market values of the carbon fibers. The comparison will
be done mainly on the fixed costs and elastic value of the variable costs which have been calculated.

As the market demand for manufacturing low-cost carbon fiber keeps growing, research efforts on that behalf
are being conducted are also increasing significantly. Recent advances have been made in the development of
lignin as an alternative precursor. This polymer offers many important advantages like a low cost, abundant
and renewable resource which are very much vital from usage as well as environment point of view. The
properties for the lignin-based carbon fiber are not very good as compared to the conventional carbon fibers,
but currently undergoing research indicates that those downsides can be overcome through proper
identification of lignin for the manufacturing process which are more suitable from practical point of view.

IV. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
The FEA was carried out first on the pristine(virgin) CFRP material and also on the recycled CFRP material. The
mechanical properties of the respective materials were fed into the simulation software (Autodesk Fusion 360).
The tabular form below shows the difference in mechanical properties of pristine and recycled materials and
the same properties were fed into the simulation software.
Table 3: Comparison of Mechanical properties
Pristine Vs Recycled
Tensile Strength (Mpa) 240 180
Young's Modulus (Gpa) 24 20
Poisson's Ratio 0.39 0.34
Also, for finite element analysis the minimum element size was set to 2mm along with adaptive mesh
refinement. The parameters set for creating the mesh are as follows:
Table 4: Mesh Setting
Case Study Bicycle Frame
Minimum Element Size 2 mm (Adaptive Meshing)
Element Type TET4
Nos. of Elements 110086
Nos. of Nodes 57687
For conducting FEA both the components i.e., one made from pristine material, and another made from
recycled material were stressed for a load of 1000N (approx. 102 Kg). The criteria for comparison of results
was the displacement and the factor of safety and not the von Mises stress as the load applied and the geometry
on which the load is applied is similar, so the value of stress obtained through study would be identical.
Results Obtained
Table 5: Result Obtained (Pristine Vs Recycled)
Pristine Vs Recycled
Max. Displacement 0.3879mm 0.4655mm
FOS 6.46 4.85
From the above obtained results we can see that the maximum displacement of component made from recycled
material was more as compared to component made from pristine material. Also, the factor of safety for the
bicycle frame made from pristine material was found to be 6.46, whereas for the bicycle frame made from
recycled material was found to be 4.85 i.e., the factor of safety decreases for the recycled component. Also, a set
of input parameters were selected for carrying out the mechanical recycling process, which have an impact on
the quality of the recycled component.
Input Parameters

V. CONCLUSION
It can be concluded that Mechanical recycling is an economical process in terms of cost and can be used for cost
cutting in place of manufacturing products from pristine material. Also, it can be seen that there is not
significant difference in the maximum displacements (0.3879mm vs 0.4655mm) as can be seen in the FEA
models and hence proves that the recycled CFRP can be used in the making of the products wherever suitable.
