The document summarizes a machine called the Tiger Stone road printer. It can lay down an entire street width of bricks at once in the correct pattern. The machine requires 1-3 operators and works by having operators load loose bricks into a hopper. The bricks are then lowered smoothly into place by a curved ramp in the proper pattern. The road printer can create roads from 3-20 feet wide at a rate of about 400 yards per day, but the equipment is expensive, costing between $75,000-$81,500. It makes road construction as easy as laying flooring.

RECYCLED AGGREGATES
The largest-volume of recycled material used as construction aggregate is blast furnace and steel furnace slag. Blast furnace slag is either air-cooled (slow cooling in the open) or granulated (formed by quenching molten slag in water to form sand-sized glass-like particles). If the granulated blast furnace slag accesses free lime during hydration, it develops strong hydraulic cementitious properties and can partly substitute for portland cement in concrete. Steel furnace slag is also air-cooled. In 2006, according to the USGS, air-cooled blast furnace slag sold or used in the U.S. was 7.3 million tonnes valued at $49 million, granulated blast furnace slag sold or used in the U.S. was 4.2 million tonnes valued at $318 million, and steel furnace slag sold or used in the U.S. was 8.7 million tonnes valued at $40 million. Air-cooled blast furnace slag sales in 2006 were for use in road bases and surfaces (41%), asphaltic concrete (13%), ready-mixed concrete (16%), and the balance for other uses. Granulated blast furnace slag sales in 2006 were for use in cementitious materials (94%), and the balance for other uses. Steel furnace slag sales in 2006 were for use in road bases and surfaces (51%), asphaltic concrete (12%), for fill (18%), and the balance for other uses

TBMs can bore tunnels continuously with minimal ground disturbance compared to traditional drilling and blasting methods. Modern TBMs function as a single, self-contained unit that can drill, excavate soil and rock, apply concrete segmental lining, and remove spoils, making them highly efficient for tunneling projects.

Advanced control scheme of doubly fed induction generator for wind turbine us...
This paper describes a speed control device for generating electrical energy on an electricity network based on the doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) used for wind power conversion systems. At first, a double-fed induction generator model was constructed. A control law is formulated to govern the flow of energy between the stator of a DFIG and the energy network using three types of controllers: proportional integral (PI), sliding mode controller (SMC) and second order sliding mode controller (SOSMC). Their different results in terms of power reference tracking, reaction to unexpected speed fluctuations, sensitivity to perturbations, and resilience against machine parameter alterations are compared. MATLAB/Simulink was used to conduct the simulations for the preceding study. Multiple simulations have shown very satisfying results, and the investigations demonstrate the efficacy and power-enhancing capabilities of the suggested control system.

Low power architecture of logic gates using adiabatic techniques
The growing significance of portable systems to limit power consumption in ultra-large-scale-integration chips of very high density, has recently led to rapid and inventive progresses in low-power design. The most effective technique is adiabatic logic circuit design in energy-efficient hardware. This paper presents two adiabatic approaches for the design of low power circuits, modified positive feedback adiabatic logic (modified PFAL) and the other is direct current diode based positive feedback adiabatic logic (DC-DB PFAL). Logic gates are the preliminary components in any digital circuit design. By improving the performance of basic gates, one can improvise the whole system performance. In this paper proposed circuit design of the low power architecture of OR/NOR, AND/NAND, and XOR/XNOR gates are presented using the said approaches and their results are analyzed for powerdissipation, delay, power-delay-product and rise time and compared with the other adiabatic techniques along with the conventional complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) designs reported in the literature. It has been found that the designs with DC-DB PFAL technique outperform with the percentage improvement of 65% for NOR gate and 7% for NAND gate and 34% for XNOR gate over the modified PFAL techniques at 10 MHz respectively.

Embedded machine learning-based road conditions and driving behavior monitoring
Car accident rates have increased in recent years, resulting in losses in human lives, properties, and other financial costs. An embedded machine learning-based system is developed to address this critical issue. The system can monitor road conditions, detect driving patterns, and identify aggressive driving behaviors. The system is based on neural networks trained on a comprehensive dataset of driving events, driving styles, and road conditions. The system effectively detects potential risks and helps mitigate the frequency and impact of accidents. The primary goal is to ensure the safety of drivers and vehicles. Collecting data involved gathering information on three key road events: normal street and normal drive, speed bumps, circular yellow speed bumps, and three aggressive driving actions: sudden start, sudden stop, and sudden entry. The gathered data is processed and analyzed using a machine learning system designed for limited power and memory devices. The developed system resulted in 91.9% accuracy, 93.6% precision, and 92% recall. The achieved inference time on an Arduino Nano 33 BLE Sense with a 32-bit CPU running at 64 MHz is 34 ms and requires 2.6 kB peak RAM and 139.9 kB program flash memory, making it suitable for resource-constrained embedded systems.

A review on techniques and modelling methodologies used for checking electrom...
The proper function of the integrated circuit (IC) in an inhibiting electromagnetic environment has always been a serious concern throughout the decades of revolution in the world of electronics, from disjunct devices to today’s integrated circuit technology, where billions of transistors are combined on a single chip. The automotive industry and smart vehicles in particular, are confronting design issues such as being prone to electromagnetic interference (EMI). Electronic control devices calculate incorrect outputs because of EMI and sensors give misleading values which can prove fatal in case of automotives. In this paper, the authors have non exhaustively tried to review research work concerned with the investigation of EMI in ICs and prediction of this EMI using various modelling methodologies and measurement setups.

Recycled Concrete Aggregate in Construction Part III
Using recycled concrete aggregates (RCA) for pavements is crucial to achieving sustainability. Implementing RCA for new pavement can minimize carbon footprint, conserve natural resources, reduce harmful emissions, and lower life cycle costs. Compared to natural aggregate (NA), RCA pavement has fewer comprehensive studies and sustainability assessments.

ROAD PRINTER
- 1. ROAD PRINTER - Presented by Simran sharma
- 2. TIGER STONE THE ROAD PRINTER
- 3. Slide Title • Abstract • Introduction • Machine description • Procedure • Advantages & disadvantages • Conclusion
- 4. Abstract -- The evolution of innovative printing techniques in the three-dimensional world goes on. Before we reported about the amazing rapid prototyping revolution, about printers that are able to print complete buildings and about the inkjet printer for streets. Now there is also the road printer. The Tiger Stone brick printer makes road construction as easy as laying laminate flooring. BLDGBLOG considers the invention of the Dutch company to be a real “road printer”.
- 5. Introduction -- Brick roads have been around us for centuries. They are both durable and treat for the eyes and easy to produce and reuse, cement pavers last a very long time and they are easy to repair and replace But Now - a -days there are difficult to find because building them is an arduous and back breaking task. Engineers are always busy in finding solutions to problem around the world and strive to decrease the Time consumption to complete a task. One such an endeavour has resulted in one such machinery which is more than just a symbol of great engineering it is both cool and awesome “THE TIGER STONE”. As Belgian manufacture RPS, the machine caries ergonomic benefits for its operators: “because the finishing of the edges is directly done on the machine, the pavers do not have to get on their knees for fixing the edges “they work in a good ergonomic position which makes their job much lighter and more efficient and road is filled and finished instantly”.
- 6. MACHINE DESCRIPTION -- The tiger stone is a six meters wide machine that can repave entire street at once, including edges. The device is amazingly simple to handle. Any person can work with it within 5 minutes. Naturally the stones fall on the road directly into the appropriate pattern. The tiger stone is a solution for the heavy work that street pavers in Holland usually have to do manually this machine is known as TIGER STONE paving machine and is being called ‘road printer’ due to the way it works .
- 7. .
- 8. PROCEDURE -- • The RPS6 ROAD PRINTER is a divisible paving machine capable of laying bricks for roads. As the machine roll backwards ‘GRAVITY’ brings the bricks flat to rest on the ground. • A front loader fills the brick hopper with loose bricks, the bricklayers stand on the machine and assemble the pattern vertically • Tiger stone requires 1-3 operators on its platform to provide the machines pusher slot with looser bricks from the hopper. • The green machine runs entirely on electricity, moving at a speed of 13 feet per a minute. • Paving stones are lowered smoothly via a curved ramp into place in the correct pattern, it selfsteers to keep the road straight and in place. • Then tamper (or) steamroller pushes the bricks down to secure them in place. • Bricks roads are experiencing a revival, because they can be reused easily, filter water and without expanding ice. • The road printer is capable of creating roads anywhere from 3-20 feet wide. • As construction workers insert brick into the machine’s forward compartment, road printer automatically processes the bricks and splits the assembled road from its rear.
- 9. • ADVANTAGES • The tiger stone brick printer makes road constructions as easy as laying laminate flooring. • Tiger stone is powered electrically and has very little moving parts therefore the noise and maintenance is quite less. • It can lay down about 400 yards of road per day. DISADVANTAGES -- • The cost of the equipment is expensive, it ranges from $ 75000-$ 81500.
- 11. CONCLUSION-- Most road projects today involve modifications to existing roadways, and the planning, operation, and maintenance of such projects often are opportunities for improving ecological conditions. A growing body of information describes such practices for improving aquatic and terrestrial habitats.
