Advanced Material Development and Manufacturing, with Focus on Infrastructure Renovation by Hota Ganga Rao in Trends in Civil Engineering and its Architecture in Lupine Publishers

Efficient infrastructure systems such as highways, bridges, buildings, pipelines, flood control systems, and utilities are all necessary for economy growth and a high standard of living. However, our infrastructure is in a dire state, as the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) report card gives the US infrastructure a grade of D+. ASCE attributes the bulk of this low grade to the funding gap of about $2.00 trillion between revenue and infrastructure needs, which in turn costs each household $3,400 per year (ASCE, 2016). Advanced Fibre Reinforced Polymer (FRP) composite materials, comprised of two or more constituent materials, offer a more efficient use of taxpayer dollars compared to conventional materials. FRP composites can provide favourable material properties and enhanced service life, including noncorrosiveness and high strength to weight ratio. FRP composites have been used in infrastructure for over 30 years.

Physico-Chemical Analysis and Modelling of Ground Water Quality Parameters Using Water Quality Index Method (WQI) and Principal Component Analysis (PCA) by Ilaboya IR in Trends in Civil Engineering and its Architecture in Lupine Publishers

Groundwater is one of the major sources of water. It is affected by a number of natural and anthropogenic factors. As groundwater use has increased, issue associated with the quality of groundwater resources have likewise grown in importance. In this study, mathematical modelling technique for water quality index computation and multivariate statistical using Principal Component Analysis (PCA) were employed to evaluate and analyze the variability of ground water quality in parts of Benin City, Edo State, Nigeria. Various ground water quality parameters such as pH, turbidity, total suspended solids (TSS), Electrical Conductivity (EC), Total Dissolved Solids (TDS), Dissolved Oxygen (DO), phosphate, nitrate, sulphate, total solids (TS), sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium, iron, lead, cadmium, zinc and chloride from twelve boreholes of known coordinates were investigated. Results of the computed water quality index indicate a latent variation in ground water quality of the study area. Although the index revealed an adequate ground water quality in the study area, a variation of 85.610% to 94.204% was observed. In addition, results of the principal component analysis (PCA) revealed that; phosphate, chloride and total dissolved solids are the three most important variables affecting the quality of the borehole water within the study area.

Dynamic Analysis of a Real Footbridge Structure in a Najaf City by Saad Al Wazni in Trends in Civil Engineering and its Architecture in Lupine Publishers

The presented study consists of a dynamic analysis of a real pedestrian bridge structure of about 35m span over the highway connect Kufa and centre city of Najaf (Iraq). The main objective of this analysis were to assess whether the dynamic properties of footbridge structure meets the main safety requirements with the appropriate verification criteria. The extracted dynamic properties of the structural bridge model are natural frequency and mode shape. ANSYS software is used to perform the analysis by the way of APDL method. In this study, the first seven vibration modes of the bridge model are extracted. The dynamic characteristics extracted by modal analysis of the adopted bridge structural model exhibited the uncomfortable of vibration modes compared with European standards.

Waste to Worth - Sludge Containing Calcium Carbonate into Useful Building Materials - an Indian Context by Varinder S Kanwar in Trends in Civil Engineering and its Architecture in Lupine Publishers

Human activities on earth produce in considerable quantities of wastes more than 2,500 million tons per year, including industrial and agricultural wastes from rural and urban societies. This creates serious problems to the environment, health and also the land filling. Now a day the concrete and bricks are most used man made materials in the world.
