Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractANSYS Numerical Modeling of Confined Deep Beam with High Strength ConcreteSyahril Taufik, Elia Anggarini, Ichwan SetiawanIn the numerical modeling presented, the deep beam is accounted for by means of a three dimensional FEA ANSYS 13.0 approach, in which the structure is modeled with load-displacement-based solid finite elements, whereas the internal work structure interacted by high strength concrete and reinforcement in full scale. Most deep beam collapse is dominated by the shear brittle collapse. Recently, confinement … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 10 Feb 2020 · 6,953 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractManufacturing of Granular Matrix with Diatomacious earth, Lime and Sugarcane Bagasse ash to Encapsulate Entomopathogenic Nematodes (Steinernema glaseri)L.V. Bustamante-Espinosa, A. Castañeda-Ovando, J. Hernández-Ávila et al.An alternative for pest control in corn production is the use of biopesticides formulated with entomopathogenic nematodes encapsulated in granular matrices. However, it has been observed that the granular matrices´ lack of resistance to handling and transport causes their deterioration, therefore limiting their use. This study analyzes the use of lime and sugarcane bagasse ash as stabilizer additives in granular … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 20 Jan 2020 · 7,732 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractViability of Using Local Waste Materials in the Production of High-Performance and Self-Compacting ConcreteSayed Mohamad Soleimani, Abdel Rahman Alaqqad, Ali Behbehani et al.The objective of this study is to investigate the effects of using local waste materials on the properties of fresh and hardened high performance and self-compacting concrete. Crushed ceramic products and steel slag from electric-arc furnaces were used as partial replacements of traditional concrete raw materials in the production of self-compacting and high-performance concrete, which were obtained from local factories … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 6 Jan 2020 · 8,077 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of the use of Polyurethane Residue Aggregated to the Plaster of Civil ConstructionGuilherme Moraes de Oliveira, Vittória Caroline Souza dos Santos, José de Souza, Tatiana Louise Ávila C. RochaThe study deals with the reuse of Polyurethane (PU) obtained from a kitchen sponge added to plaster for use in civil engineering. The kitchen sponge is an item widely used by the population in their daily lives, generating a significant accumulation of waste. Thus, from the analysis of the properties of the kitchen sponge, it was seeking possible reuse of … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 4 · 27 Nov 2019 · 7,142 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSustainable Study of Self-Healing Concrete in Hot Desert ClimateBatoul Chamali, Moayyad Al-Nasra, Taher M. Abu-LebdehThe hot and dry desert climate is characterized by high temperature and high humidity. This affects the strength of concrete negatively by the difficulty of providing proper curing and by generating early micro-cracks due to the high temperature. These two issues have been addressed in this study by adding calcite precipitating bacteria to deal with the micro-cracks and by adding … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 2 · 16 May 2019 · 8,041 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInvestigating the Behavior of Steel Composite Shear Wall with Corrugated Plate under Lateral LoadSeyedeh Asma MirfazliJirdehiThe steel shear wall system has been considered as a structural system over the past few decades. This issue deals with wind and earthquake lateral forces due to its hardness, loading capacity and plasticity. This type of the system, with the use of external hardness resulting from the geometric shape of the waves, has better buckling strength than a hardened … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 14 Jul 2018 · 7,900 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstract3D Printing of Porous Scaffolds for Medical ApplicationsAblah Aljohani, Salil DesaiCustom engineered scaffolds that mimic the physiology of native tissue is an emerging need for successful regenerative medicine. One of the key challenges in current manufacturing methods is the lack of controlled porosity throughout the scaffold structure. In this research, our group explores the fabrication of tissue engineering scaffolds using 3D printing technology. The fused deposition modeling method was utilized … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 19 Jun 2018 · 8,508 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCracking of Reinforced Recycled Concrete SlabsFlavio Stochino, Luisa Pani, Lorena Francesconi, Fausto MistrettaThe results of an experimental investigation on cracking of fifteen reinforced recycled concrete slabs are presented in this paper. Five different recycled aggregates replacement percentages have been used for different mix design. First, the values of tensile strength, cylindrical compressive strength and modulus of elasticity of the concrete mixes have been determined. Then the deflection-load curve of the simply supported … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 5 Sep 2017 · 10,157 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessment of Strength Development in Stabilized Soil with CBR Plus and Silica SandSeyedesmaeil Mousavi, Aliakbar KaramvandThis paper investigates the potential use of a nano polymer stabilizer, namely CBR PLUS for stabilization of soft clay and formulation of an optimal mix design of stabilized soil with CBR PLUS and silica sand. The highway settlements induced by the soft clay are problematic due to serious damages in the form of cracks and deformation. With respect to this, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 4 · 12 Apr 2017 · 7,889 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCavern Design Philosophy under High Stress Rock Condition a Case Study in Sri LankaBahram SalehiFor stabilizing of rock cavern stress condition and orientation, rock properties and cavern geometry have determinant effects. Numerical and analytical study and knowledge about self-support arching can assist to designer in appropriate understanding of cavern and ground interaction. The comparative studies by E. Hoek, showed that the mushroom shaped cavern was not an acceptable design because of high value stress … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 3 · 21 Mar 2017 · 7,978 accessesView PDFCite
