This document studies the use of embedded through-section (ETS) steel bars to strengthen reinforced concrete beams against shear failure. ETS involves inserting steel bars through holes drilled in the beam. The study tests beams with varying ETS bar diameters (8mm, 10mm, 12mm) and spacings (220mm, 146.7mm) under three-point bending. The results show that increasing the ETS bar diameter or decreasing the spacing increases the beam's ultimate load-carrying capacity. Beams strengthened with the ETS technique failed in shear.

The document summarizes a study that tested different rehabilitation techniques for improving the seismic performance of reinforced concrete beam-column joints. Three beam-column joints were tested: a control specimen and two specimens that were rehabilitated using glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) sheets. The control specimen failed in a brittle shear and bond failure mode, while the rehabilitated specimens exhibited a more ductile flexural failure of the beam. The rehabilitation techniques strengthened the joint shear capacity and prevented bond-slip failures of the beam reinforcement in the joint. A simple design methodology for the GFRP rehabilitation is proposed.
IRJET- Experimental Study on the Effect of Steel Fibres in Concrete Short ColumnIRJET Journal
This document presents an experimental study on the effect of steel fibers in concrete short columns. Two types of steel fibers (hooked end and crimped) were added to concrete in volumes of 0.5%, 1% and 1.5%. Short concrete columns containing steel fibers were tested under compression and compared to plain concrete columns and reinforced concrete columns. The results showed that the compressive load capacity of the columns increased with higher steel fiber content. Columns with 1.5% steel fiber content achieved behavior similar to reinforced concrete columns. Hooked end fibers provided higher load capacity with less deflection compared to crimped fibers. The addition of steel fibers increased the ductility of the concrete.

The document discusses an experimental investigation on the use of mechanical splices and basalt fibers in fiber reinforced concrete beams. Mechanical splices are more reliable than traditional lap splices as they do not depend on bond with concrete to transfer loads. Basalt fibers are added to concrete in percentages from 0-1.5% to study their effect on the compressive, tensile, and flexural strength of the concrete. Beams made with different basalt fiber contents and spliced with mechanical couplers or laps are tested to determine their strength properties. The results provide data on the optimum basalt fiber dosage for improved concrete strength.

This document analyzes the strengthening of flexurally and shear deficient reinforced concrete beams through ferrocement jacketing with nano silica-based mortar. Five beam models are created - an original deficient beam and beams with jacketing along the bottom at lengths of 500mm, 1000mm, 1500mm, and 2000mm. The beams are modeled and analyzed using ANSYS software. Results show that load carrying capacity and ductility increase with longer jacketing lengths, with the 2000mm jacket providing over a 40% increase in load capacity. Jacketed beams demonstrate improved load-deflection behavior compared to the original deficient beam. Therefore, ferrocement jacketing is an effective method for strengthening beams, with longer jackets producing greater structural

DEEP LEARNING FOR SMART GRID INTRUSION DETECTION: A HYBRID CNN-LSTM-BASED MODELgerogepatton
As digital technology becomes more deeply embedded in power systems, protecting the communication
networks of Smart Grids (SG) has emerged as a critical concern. Distributed Network Protocol 3 (DNP3)
represents a multi-tiered application layer protocol extensively utilized in Supervisory Control and Data
Acquisition (SCADA)-based smart grids to facilitate real-time data gathering and control functionalities.
Robust Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) are necessary for early threat detection and mitigation because
of the interconnection of these networks, which makes them vulnerable to a variety of cyberattacks. To
solve this issue, this paper develops a hybrid Deep Learning (DL) model specifically designed for intrusion
detection in smart grids. The proposed approach is a combination of the Convolutional Neural Network
(CNN) and the Long-Short-Term Memory algorithms (LSTM). We employed a recent intrusion detection
dataset (DNP3), which focuses on unauthorized commands and Denial of Service (DoS) cyberattacks, to
train and test our model. The results of our experiments show that our CNN-LSTM method is much better
at finding smart grid intrusions than other deep learning algorithms used for classification. In addition,
our proposed approach improves accuracy, precision, recall, and F1 score, achieving a high detection
accuracy rate of 99.50%.

TIME DIVISION MULTIPLEXING TECHNIQUE FOR COMMUNICATION SYSTEMHODECEDSIET
Time Division Multiplexing (TDM) is a method of transmitting multiple signals over a single communication channel by dividing the signal into many segments, each having a very short duration of time. These time slots are then allocated to different data streams, allowing multiple signals to share the same transmission medium efficiently. TDM is widely used in telecommunications and data communication systems.
### How TDM Works
1. **Time Slots Allocation**: The core principle of TDM is to assign distinct time slots to each signal. During each time slot, the respective signal is transmitted, and then the process repeats cyclically. For example, if there are four signals to be transmitted, the TDM cycle will divide time into four slots, each assigned to one signal.
2. **Synchronization**: Synchronization is crucial in TDM systems to ensure that the signals are correctly aligned with their respective time slots. Both the transmitter and receiver must be synchronized to avoid any overlap or loss of data. This synchronization is typically maintained by a clock signal that ensures time slots are accurately aligned.
3. **Frame Structure**: TDM data is organized into frames, where each frame consists of a set of time slots. Each frame is repeated at regular intervals, ensuring continuous transmission of data streams. The frame structure helps in managing the data streams and maintaining the synchronization between the transmitter and receiver.
4. **Multiplexer and Demultiplexer**: At the transmitting end, a multiplexer combines multiple input signals into a single composite signal by assigning each signal to a specific time slot. At the receiving end, a demultiplexer separates the composite signal back into individual signals based on their respective time slots.
### Types of TDM
1. **Synchronous TDM**: In synchronous TDM, time slots are pre-assigned to each signal, regardless of whether the signal has data to transmit or not. This can lead to inefficiencies if some time slots remain empty due to the absence of data.
2. **Asynchronous TDM (or Statistical TDM)**: Asynchronous TDM addresses the inefficiencies of synchronous TDM by allocating time slots dynamically based on the presence of data. Time slots are assigned only when there is data to transmit, which optimizes the use of the communication channel.
### Applications of TDM
- **Telecommunications**: TDM is extensively used in telecommunication systems, such as in T1 and E1 lines, where multiple telephone calls are transmitted over a single line by assigning each call to a specific time slot.
- **Digital Audio and Video Broadcasting**: TDM is used in broadcasting systems to transmit multiple audio or video streams over a single channel, ensuring efficient use of bandwidth.
- **Computer Networks**: TDM is used in network protocols and systems to manage the transmission of data from multiple sources over a single network medium.
### Advantages of TDM
- **Efficient Use of Bandwidth**: TDM all
