 Abstract

The rearing of fish is mainly conducted in ponds made of concrete, earthen, plastics or wooden materials. Sludge generated consists of organic materials, Inorganic materials that end up at the bottom of ponds. Dewatered sludge is a soil-like material. Due to a lack of proper environmental planning aquaculture waste (sludge) gets decomposed and reacts to the soil and contaminating the soil and affecting the geo-environmental and geotechnical properties of the soil Aquaculture waste sludge mainly consist of stabilized excreta,uneaten food particles and biofloc.This paper discusses the effectiveness of Aquaculture waste sludge on Redsoil-bentonite mixture. A laboratory study was conducted on Redsoil-bentonite mixture treated with Aquaculture waste sludge, and variation in soil properties such as Unconfined compressive strength and hydraulic conductivity was analysed. The Aquaculture waste sludge was added in different concentrations so as to identify an optimum dosage.

 Abstract

Aphthous stomatitis, one of the most common ulcerative diseases, is primarily associated with the oral mucosa and is characterized by excruciatingly painful, recurring, single, or multiple ulcers in the upper throat and oral cavity. The condition is also known as canker sores, cold sores, recurrent aphthous stomatitis (RAS), and recurrent aphthous ulcers by both the general public and medical professionals (RAU). During the active disease phase, eating, drinking, and swallowing are all affected, lowering the quality of life. In most cases, analgesics, antibiotics, and topical steroid application are the only medications used to treat symptoms. These over-the-counter medications can have serious side effects on occasion. Herbal medicine is a safer and more effective alternative to pharmaceutical medications. The goal of this article is to examine the regularly use herbal remedies and determine how it is working to treat mouth ulcers.

 Abstract

National highways and express ways play a crucial role in the development of states, but there is a pressing need for a road safety system to address this problem. Road traffic accidents have been identified as detrimental factors that hinder economic growth in developing countries due to their high associated costs, leading to social and economic concerns. Maharashtra, one of India's more advanced states, boasts a relatively dense road network and a higher concentration of motor vehicles compared to other states. The rapid growth of the population, coupled with increased economic development and motor vehicle usage, is a primary contributor to road accidents.

 Abstract

Due to growing environmental awareness, as well as stricter regulations on managing industrial waste, the world is increasingly turning to researching properties of industrial wastes and finding solutions on using their valuable component parts so that those might be used as secondary raw material for other industrial applications. Lime sludge production is a by-product of paper making in the paper mill industries. To date, these by-products are being used in other industrial branches and in the field of civil constructions, such as in cement manufacturing along with clinker and in masonry work for civil works. Considering the specificity of physical and chemical properties of lime sludge and a series of possibilities for its use in concrete, this research work demonstrates the possibilities of using lime sludge as partial replacements of cement in concrete. This research work presents an investigation of different properties of materials used for mix design. Quality tests were conducted to check the suitability of material for mix design. Mix design was done according to IS guidelines and the result of it was 1:1.62:3.40. The objective of the study is to check the compressive strength of concrete by adding lime sludge as partial replacement of cement in various percentages. In this work 20% cement has been replaced by five proportions of lime sludge. The five proportions are (0% Lime sludge), (5% Lime sludge), (10% Lime sludge), (15 % Lime sludge) & (20% Lime sludge). It has been observed from the 3, 7 & 28 days tests of compressive strength of concrete that compressive strength decreases as the percentage of lime sludge increases in the mix when compared with controlled concrete. The compressive strength, analysis carried out in this work gives a deeper insight into the cementitious properties and pozzolanic behaviour of such by-products when used for construction purposes. The results show that the strength properties of concrete vary significantly when cement is partially replaced by lime sludge.

 Abstract

This study investigates how Basalt Fiber Reinforced Self-Compacting Concrete (BFRSCC) performs in exterior beam-column joints subjected to positive quasi-static loading. The research focuses on understanding the behavior of basalt fibers when combined with M30 grade Self-Compacting Rubberized Concrete (SCRC) and 12mm chopped Basalt fiber. The aim is to provide valuable insights for the design and construction industry on the use of BFRSCC in reinforced concrete structures, following the principles of strong column weak beam theory for ensuring structural integrity. Experimental findings consistently show that the initial crack occurs near the bottom of the beam close to the joint and progresses upward during loading cycles, resulting in flexural cracks and beam hinging at the joint interface. Shear failure is identified as the primary mechanism leading to failure. By incorporating smaller proportions of crumb rubber and basalt fiber, the ductility of the specimens is improved in terms of displacement and stiffness. Crumb rubber inclusion enhances crack load and ultimate deflection, while basalt fiber reinforcement enhances crack load, ultimate load, and ultimate deflection. However, careful selection of the fiber content is crucial to balance the load-carrying capacity and stiffness. Challenges in meeting flowability requirements limit the exploration of higher fiber percentages, calling for further research. The study evaluates ductility and reveals significant enhancements with crumb rubber and basalt fiber. The findings contribute to construction practices and provide guidance for engineers, researchers, and practitioners involved in the construction of resilient and durable moment-resisting frame structures. Future research can explore alternative mix designs and examine the behavior of BFRSCC under different loading conditions to expand its practical applications.
