Abstract: Cracking, i.e. material separation at the moment of fracture, is inherently an irreversible process and, hence, is synonymous with material damage. In failure analysis of concrete at increasing applied load, the degree of ...

Abstract: Sludge is a by‐product of municipal wastewater treatment. Its disposal problems could be drastically reduced if sludge could be converted for economical uses as substitute materials. Dewatered sludge, after incineration ...

Abstract: Sludge is an inevitable by‐product of wastewater treatment. Its abundance poses disposal problems that can be drastically reduced if sludge can be converted for economical uses in construction as substitute materials. ...

Abstract: This feasibility study of using reclaimed wastewater for concrete mixing was carried out in the laboratory. The compressive strength of concrete cubes cast with varying percentages of reclaimed wastewater in the total ...

Abstract: Sludge disposal is a nuisance for municipal wastewater treatment plants. Increasingly stringent environmental control regulations have resulted in limitations on sludge disposal options, and hence there has been a resulting ...
