Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleInfluences of Short Discrete Fibers in High Strength Concrete with Very Coarse SandMahyuddin Ramli, Kwan Wai HoeProblem statement: High Strength Concrete (HSC) normally content high cementitous amount and low water binder ratio. However, these would cause substantial volume changes to the concrete and therefore affected the strength development. In addition, the brittleness of HSC was increased when silica fume used as partial cement replacement to achieve high strength. Approach: This study discussed the effects of incorporated … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2010 · 7,812 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluating the Effect of Soil Particle Characterization on Internal Friction AngleArezou Rasti, Hamid Ranjkesh Adarmanabadi, Maria Pineda, Jesse ReinikainenOne of the critical design parameters used in evaluating soil structure is the friction angle, derived from Mohr's Circle failure criterion. The soil friction angle is an engineering parameter estimated in the laboratory to quantify the soil shear strength in geotechnical applications. This paper indicates an experimental study investigating the impact of particle size on different sandy soils shear strength … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 21 Feb 2021 · 8,890 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSedimentology and Ichnology of Late Oligocene Delta Front Reservoir Sandstone Deposit, Greater Ughelli Depobelt, Niger DeltaRaphael Oaikhena Oyanyan, Michael Ndubuisi OtiSedimentological and ichnological study of cored reservoir sands correlated with wireline logs between two wells, 0.8 km distance apart along dip direction, enabled vertical and cross sectional facies variability assessment aimed at determining intra sand-body continuity in longitudinal or down-dip direction; and sub-environments of deposition and factors that controlled depositional processes. Ten lithofacies described 62 meters cores of the reservoir … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 30 Jul 2015 · 7,829 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLithofacies and Depositional Environment of Volcano-Sedimentary Deposits of Se Mayo Oulo BasinElie Fosso Menkem, David Sebag, Benjamin Ngounou Ngatcha, Alain DurandThe study of volcano-sedimentary deposits of Mangbai in SE Mayo Oulo basin-Cameroon leads to the identification of five major distinct lithofacies types. From the coarset to the finest lithofacies, there are: Gb-clast supported by massive coble and boulder, Gg-granule to massive gravel, Sm-massive sand, Sh-horizontal layered sandstones, Fml-massive laminated claystones. Coarse facies (Gb, Gg, Sm) are cemented with volcanic matrix … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 19 Dec 2013 · 7,372 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of Aquifer Characteristics in Echi, Delta State, Nigeria Using Well Logging and Pumping Test MethodOchuko AnomohanranThis study was carried out to evaluate the aquifer characteristics of groundwater at Echi, Delta State, Nigeria. This was carried out by conducting electrical resistivity and spontaneous potential loggings in a drilled well at the study location. Pumping test using a one kilowatt pumping machine was carried out in the well. The logs were interpreted while the record of the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 10 · 6 Sep 2013 · 6,950 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBed-Load Sediment Profile and Effect of River Bank Erosion on River Cross-SectionMohd Ekhwan Toriman, Frankie Marcus Ata, Mohd Khairul Amri Kamarudin, Mushrifah IdrisThe processes of lateral and riverbank erosion are among the elements of river morphology dynamic resulting from natural processes and human activities. This process has been studied in detail throughout the research for four months starting from 7 October 2009 to 26 January 2010. In this research, technique of erosion pins were applied at five plots selected along the Chini … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 28 Aug 2013 · 7,337 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRational Mix Design Approach for High Strength Concrete Using Sand with very High Fineness ModulusKwan Wai Hoe, Mahyuddin RamliProblem statement: Production of concrete is always deal with inconsistency. Sources of variation like materials from different geographical basis, mix design method, fineness of aggregates and so on will attribute to different level of achievement of the concrete. Even though researcher had verified that higher fineness modulus of sand would yield better performance for the concrete, but so far there … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2010 · 8,217 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTaguchi Experiment Design for Investigation of Freshened Properties of Self-Compacting ConcreteYoyok Setyo Hadiwidodo, Sabarudin Bin MohdProblem statement: The intent of this study was to apply of Taguchi Design Of Experiments (DOE) techniques in Self Compacting Concrete (SCC) freshened properties studies. Owing to a wide range of material content of Self Compacting Concrete (SCC), generally, a large number of experiments were usually required as to decide a suitable mixture for finding the needed requirements of SCC. … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,146 accessesView PDFCite
