This document summarizes a research study that investigated using plastic waste to create structural building materials like bricks. The study used experimental testing, ANSYS software modeling, and ETAB structural design software. Experimental compression tests were performed on plastic and conventional bricks. Plastic brick models were then analyzed in ANSYS for stress values, which were incorporated into a G+2 building design in ETAB. Results showed experimental plastic brick strengths were generally higher than ANSYS values. The ETAB analysis found the HDPE building model experienced lower bending moments and axial loads than the concrete model, indicating plastic bricks have superior mechanical properties and load-carrying capacity for structural use.

Strength characteristics of concrete containing post consumer metalized plast...eSAT Journals
Abstract This paper represents results of strength tests conducted on concrete containing flakes of waste metalized plastics. The feasibility of post consumer plastic waste (PCMPW) was determined on the bases of tests results of compressive strength and split tensile strength. Ever increasing generation of PCMPW has raised littering issues and has become one of the major sources for landfills. The objective of the test program was to check the feasibility of PCMPW as concrete constituent and possible way of mitigating the environmental impacts occurring from insufficient and unsafe management of PCMPW. The strength tests were performed with three sizes of PCMPW in flaks and fiber form. PCMPW was added in the mixes with 0%, 0.5%, 1%, 1.5% and 2% by volume of concrete mix. Test results reveled that strengths reduced with increased PCMPW flakes contents. However, up to 1% of addition of flakes the strength reduction was negligible for all flak sizes. Moreover, the PCMPW fiber with 1mmx17mm size improved the split tensile strength. Experimental results of compressive –split tensile strength were correlated by a standard analytical model and exhibited good agreement with the experimental results. Such concrete could be utilized in pavements, sub-structural components and in non-structural members. Key Words: Post consumer metalized plastic waste, Concrete, Compressive strength, Split tensile strength, Slump, Compaction factor.
The purpose of this paper is to perform a structural optimization of a flat thermoplastic plate (tile). This task is developed computationally through the interface between an optimization algorithm and the finite element method with the goal of minimizing the equivalent stress with specified target stress of 2 MPa when applied with a load intensity of 1000N. A 300 x 300 x 20 mm thermoplastic plate was selected for the optimization, which was performed with a tool in MATLAB R2012b known as genetic algorithm accompanied with static analysis in ANSYS 15. The results produced the optimum equivalent stress (δopt) of 2.136 MPa with the optimum dimensions of 305 x 302 x 20 mm. Also, the dimensions of the plate with the optimum value of the equivalent stress were discovered to be within the lower and upper bound dimensions of the plate. The thermoplastic plate object of the optimization was a square plate of 300 x 300mm, and 20 mm thick with isotropic properties and a particular load and boundary conditions were applied on the entire plate.

EXPERIMENTAL STUDY ON STRENGTH BEHAVIOUR OF SELF COMPACTING CONCRETE USING RE...AM Publications
The construction of modern structures alarming the attention of use of materials with improved properties
in respect of strength, stiffness, toughness and durability. Concrete is one of the most widely used construction material
having several advantages such as high strength, good mould ability and high durability. The major disadvantages of
concrete are its poorer tensile strength and lesser ductility (toughness). Conventional concrete used in building
construction and engineering applications requires compaction to attain strength, durability and homogeneity. The
typical method of compaction, by vibration, generates delays and additional costs in projects and could pose a serious
health hazard due to noise pollution in and around construction sites. Self Compacting Concrete (SCC) is a concrete
which is highly flowble, can flows readily into place, fill the formwork without any compaction and without undergoing
any significant segregation. Recycling is the act of processing the used material for creating a new useful product.
Construction and Demolished waste also generate Recycled Aggregate (RA). Such a Recycled Aggregate proved to be a
reliable alternative to Natural Aggregates (NA) in concrete. There is a growing need for renovation from a usual
consumption based society to a sustainable society owing the natural environment pollution, exhaustion of natural
resources and as decreasing capacity of disposal facilities for final waste. Use of aggregates from Building Demolished
Waste (BDW) in structural concrete is definitely an important stride. Use of RA in developing SCC is certainly a novel
thought towards achieving a sustainable concrete. There is a pressing demand for the use of Recycled Aggregate in
recent concretes, as sustainability is given the highest importance in today’s world. This has necessitated the make use
of Recycled Aggregates in SCC and fibre based SCC. Hence Reinforced Self Compacting Concrete using Recycled
Aggregate with fibres may be a potential material in construction. In order to clearly understand the performance of
such a concrete, there is a call for to study the stress-strain and flexural strength behaviour. The present study focuses
on flexural bond strength behaviour of Fibre Reinforced Self Compacting Concrete by replacing the natural Aggregate
with Recycled Aggregate. BDW is used as coarse aggregate in the concrete, with an aim to achieve sustainable concrete.

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!
Work done in cooperation with James Malloy and David Moelling from Tetra Engineering.

Cosmetic shop management system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
Buying new cosmetic products is difficult. It can even be scary for those who have sensitive skin and are prone to skin trouble. The information needed to alleviate this problem is on the back of each product, but it's thought to interpret those ingredient lists unless you have a background in chemistry.
Instead of buying and hoping for the best, we can use data science to help us predict which products may be good fits for us. It includes various function programs to do the above mentioned tasks.
Data file handling has been effectively used in the program.
The automated cosmetic shop management system should deal with the automation of general workflow and administration process of the shop. The main processes of the system focus on customer's request where the system is able to search the most appropriate products and deliver it to the customers. It should help the employees to quickly identify the list of cosmetic product that have reached the minimum quantity and also keep a track of expired date for each cosmetic product. It should help the employees to find the rack number in which the product is placed.It is also Faster and more efficient way.
