 Abstract

Background: The hamstrings are an important muscle in running, but they tend to be neglected by runners in terms of stretching and strengthening. A tight hamstring is often the result of not stretching before running and could be indicative of strain. Brian Mulligan has developed most brilliant compilation of manual techniques such as Bent Leg Raise and Traction Straight Leg Raise in hamstring flexibility. Objectives: To compare the effect of Bent Leg Raise and Traction Straight Leg Raise on hamstring muscle tightness and lumbar spine mobility. Methods: Total number of 60 marathon runners between age 18-35 years of both genders with more than 1 year of experience were selected by simple random sampling, and were divide into three groups of 20each, Group A, B and C using envelop method. Subjects in Group A received Bent Leg Raise technique and static stretching, Group B received Traction Straight

The spectacular and unprecedented growth of FDI in the global economic landscape over the last two decades has made it an integral part of the development strategy of both the developed and developing nations. It acts as a major catalyst in the development of a country through up-gradation of technology, managerial skills and capabilities in various sectors. Rise in purchasing power, growing consumerism and brand proliferation has led to retail modernization in India. The following article talks about FDI or Foreign Direct Investment in India. Many people are in favour of FDI & many people are against

The speedy growing of the function banks originated to an sudden stop in 1886, when a innovative member of legislature, the Function Banks Act, located all three banks below a public contractand a shared set of limitations. As portion of the legislature, the British majestic govt offered up its possession dangers in the banks, though they continuous to afford a quantity of facilities to the management, and booked some of the administration's treasurer investment.

This paper focus on classification of signatures of four different types of aircraft prototypes. In order to classify the signatures, Support Vector Machine method is proposed. This procedure is designed to pair wise generate optimally aligned signatures by back tracking along the optimal alignment path. Classification results on these prototype signatures show that this method is quite robust in classifying the signals with unequal duration, compared to nearest mean classifier and Dynamic Time Wrapping method. Classification results were observed for different MSSNR for both classification methods. This paper also focused on reconstructing signatures based on the alignment path

 Abstract

Geopolymer concrete (GPC) has emerged as a promising sustainable alternative to conventional Portland cement concrete (PCC), offering a potential reduction in the construction industry's substantial greenhouse gas emissions. PCC production is a major contributor to CO2, and GPC, utilizing industrial by-products like fly ash and ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBFS), presents a compelling solution. This review examines GPC, focusing on its strength, durability, and workability. GPC uses geopolymers as the binding agent--inorganic aluminosilicate materials synthesized through alkali activation of source materials. This geopolymerization process involves dissolving aluminosilicate precursors in a highly alkaline solution, forming a three-dimensional polymeric network. The use of industrial by-products like fly ash and GGBFS aligns with sustainable practices. GPC has demonstrated the potential for comparable or superior mechanical properties, particularly compressive strength, compared to PCC, especially with optimized mix designs and curing conditions. Research on the microstructure development of alkali-activated fly ash provides insights into strength development. GPC also offers potential durability improvements, notably in aggressive chemical environments like sulfate attack. However, challenges remain, including workability concerns. Optimizing mix design parameters, such as the SiO2/Na2O ratio of the alkali activator, is crucial for achieving desired workability without sacrificing other properties. Long-term durability in diverse environments requires further investigation, extending beyond sulfate resistance to include freeze-thaw cycles and chloride exposure. This review synthesizes research on GPC's strength (compressive, tensile, flexural), exploring the influence of source materials, alkali activators, curing conditions, and mix design. It also addresses durability aspects (chemical resistance, freeze-thaw, elevated temperature) and workability challenges. By synthesizing existing knowledge, this review aims to provide a comprehensive overview of GPC, contributing to the advancement and wider application of this sustainable construction material.
