Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleAutomatic Measurement of Drilling Parameters to Evaluate the Mechanical Properties of SoilsDaniele Pettinau, Pierpaolo Oreste, Marilena Cardu, Davide GuidarelliAny underground work, carried out either to perform excavations, should be based on detailed knowledge of the geological, hydrogeological and geomechanical conditions of the underlying materials. The continuous automatic diagraphy is a test that consists in the continuous surveying of drilling parameters, with total destruction of the core, which can be used, together with geognostic probing surveys and a detailed … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 7 · 17 Jun 2013 · 7,546 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleMechanical Strength and Durability Properties of High Performance Mortar Containing Densified Silica FumeCheah Chee Ban, Mahyuddin RamliProblem statement: Numerous data and information on pozzolanic reaction and microfiller properties of silica fume were derived from laboratory investigation on silica fume in undensified form. Currently, due to low bulk density of undensified silica fume which poses problem in transportation and handling of the material, silica fume are commercially supplied in densified form. Densification process used to increase bulk … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2011 · 7,956 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleINVESTIGATING EFFECTS OF INTRODUCTION OF CORNCOB ASH INTO PORTLAND CEMENTS CONCRETE: MECHANICAL AND THERMAL PROPERTIESAntonio Price, Ryan Yeargin, Ellie Fini, Taher Abu-LebdehThe purpose of this study was to evaluate the benefits of replacing Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC) with Corncob Ash (CCA) blended cements. The cement industry contributes considerable amount of Carbon Dioxide (CO2) emissions into the atmosphere. The main contribution of CO2 emissions from cement production results from the process of creating Calcium Oxide (CaO) from limestone (CaCO3) commonly known as … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2014 · 9,813 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsPreparation of Rosemary Collagen Chitosan Blend Membrane Using Response Surface Methodology (RSM)Ming He, Yuhan Zhai, Yuqing Zhang et al.The present research provided a formula for the optimization of rosemary/collagen/chitosan blend membrane. Rosemary Extract (RE) was used as additive and membrane was prepared using tensile strength, elongation at break and elongation length as the indexes. The results of single factor experiment showed that the addition ratio of collagen to chitosan, additive content, glycerol content and drying temperature all affected … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 17, Issue 4 · 22 Nov 2021 · 6,239 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsA Brief Review of the Latest Advances of Attapulgite as a Reinforcing Agent in Polymer Matrix NanocompositesThais Ferreira da Silva, Gabriel Portilho Monteiro de Souza, Guilherme Ferreira de Melo Morgado et al.The development of polymeric nanocomposites using clay minerals as a Nano filler is of great interest to researchers and industry. Many clay minerals are used to modify the properties of the polymers; this strategy improves the thermal and mechanical performance and changes the surface finishing and the processing characteristics. The Attapulgite (ATP), which is a clay mineral of the hydrated … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 2 · 3 Jun 2021 · 7,419 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsMechanical and Microstructural Characterization of Plasma Welded Joints of 18 Ni-300 Maraging Steels Subjected to RepairsPaulo Roberto Sakai, Deivid Ferreira da Silva, Milton Sérgio Fernandes de Lima et al.Among the ultra-high strength structural steels, 18Ni-300 Maraging steel is one of the most important for the naval and aerospace industries. For example, in the manufacture of motor envelopes Plasma Arc Welding-PAW processes are used with the keyhole technique. The joints are regions of high responsibility and undergo a non-destructive inspection according to the standardized technical criteria. If there is … …Journal of Aircraft and Spacecraft Technology, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 19 Apr 2021 · 7,599 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsCharacterization of Recycled Asphalt Pavement (RAP) for Use in Flexible PavementAhmed Ebrahim Abu El-Maaty, Abdulla Ibrahim ElmohrDue to economical reasons and the need for environmental conservatism, there has been an increasing shift towards the use of Recycled Asphalt Pavement (RAP) materials in the pavement construction industry. The majority of HMA mixtures in Egypt are produced only from virgin materials although there are about 4 million tons per year of reclaimed asphalt materials, due to continuous pavement … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 20 Jun 2015 · 9,213 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsBIODEGRADABILITY AND MECHANICAL BEHAVIOUR OF SUGAR PALM STARCH BASED BIOPOLYMERJ. Sahari, S. M. Sapuan, E. S. Zainudin, M. A. MalequeA new Sugar Palm Starch (SPS) based biopolymer was successfully developed using glycerol as plasticizer. The effect of glycerol concentration (viz., 15, 20, 30 and 40 by weight percent) to the mechanical properties of plasticized SPS biopolymer was investigated. From this investigation, it was found that the 30% glycerol concentrated biopolymer showed the highest flexural strength and impact with the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 10 · 10 Nov 2014 · 7,704 accessesView PDFCite
