Development of Newer Composite Cement with Processed Ladle Furnace Slag: Properties and Comparative Assessment
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Developing novel composite cement with processed ladle furnace slag (LFS) is one of the emerging research areas promoting circular economy in construction. In the present study, LFS was mechanically processed through milling ...
Response of an Elastic Half Space to Uniformly Moving Circular Surface Load
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The problem of a uniformly moving circular surface load of a general orientation on an elastic half space for two types of load distribution, viz., “uniform” and “hemispherical,” is considered. ...
Critical Assessment of Environmental Quality of Baghdad, Iraq
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Before the Gulf War, the population of Iraq enjoyed a relatively high level of water supply and sanitation services. The sector operated efficiently, utilizing then-current technologies. Since, the water supply and sanitation ...
Sustainable Utilization of Paper-Industry Lime Sludge through Development of Metakaolinite-Based Cementitious Binder
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The emphasis of the current study was on the calcination of lime sludge, performed at different temperatures from 650°C to 750°C, which consumes less energy as compared to the industrial process of calcination. Different ...
Clay Content Assessment in Fine Aggregates Using Phenol Adsorption Method
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The scarcity of river sand is increasing due to worldwide fast-track urbanization and infrastructure development, which leads to high demand for fine aggregates. In recent years, the exploration and consumption of different ...
Modal Analysis of Ballooning Strings With Small Curvature
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: During the manufacture and transport of textile products, yarns are rotated at high speed. The surface of revolution generated by the rotating yarn is called a balloon. The dynamic response ...
Bond Behavior of Reinforcing Steel Bar and Geopolymer Concrete
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The study investigated the bond behavior of reinforcing bar and geopolymer concrete as a function of rebar diameter, embedment length, concrete cover and compressive strength. The effect of rebar surface (plain and ribbed) ...
The Flow Properties of Crushed Ice
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The flow properties of crushed ice under plane-strain conditions are examined. The analysis is based on a set laboratory experiments. The geometric configuration provided a wide range of pressures ...
Performance of Recycled Fine-Aggregate Concrete Using Novel Mix-Proportioning Method
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The construction sector is mainly accountable for the diminishing of natural resources and environmental imbalances due to unplanned mining activities. In this context, use of recycled fine aggregate (RFA) from construction ...
