An Analysis of Ujjani Reservoir in Solapur, Maharashtra, India, Using Mathematical Modeling and Satellite Remote Sensing Techniques for Sedimentation Studies
Abstract: The reservoir's storage capacity steadily decreases due to sedimentation. The reservoir life can be preserved by monitoring sedimentation and implementing appropriate management measures. The Ujjani dam was built for power generating, irrigation, and water delivery systems. It is located in the drought-prone Solapur district, due to which Ujjani is an important initiative for the region's economy and society. In the present study, the Ujjani reservoir's sedimentation is evaluated for monitoring …

Analysing Seismo-electromagnetic Waves through Wavelet Transformation
Abstract: This research has presented a sophisticated methodology for studying lithosphere-ionosphere coupling phenomena, emphasising the identification of pre-seismic activity through seismo-electromagnetic signal processing. The application of an advanced electric field monitoring device, coupled with the precision of the Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT), has allowed us to uncover nuanced patterns in the ULF range, specifically related to seismic events during the Kumamoto Earthquakes. The detailed statistical analysis further supports the significance of …

Behavior of Cantilever and Strut Sheet Pile Embedded in Soil using Finite Element Method
Abstract: This research work is mainly focused on analysis of geotechnical aspects/parametres of Sheet Pile embedded in any soil condition using Finite Element Analysis. For this research work the finite element geotechnical analysis package Optum G2 has been brought into use. The Soil and Sheet Pile both have been designed/modelled as per Mohr-Coulomb Criterion. Here strutted(braced) sheet pile system using a strut modelled as fixed end anchor C300 (with yield force …

Experimental Analysis on Improving the Soil Characteristics by Stabilization of Black Cotton Soil Using Coir or Coconut Fibre
Abstract: One of the most widely utilized methods for improving poor soils is soil reinforcement. Metal strips,natural and synthetic fibers arranged randomly, geogrid sheets, synthetic and natural geotextiles, andmetal strips are examples of materials used for soil reinforcement. Additionally, the tensile strength,shear strength, other characteristics, bearing capacity, and economy are all significantly improved bythe soil reinforcement. The utilization of jute fibre in civil engineering is beneficial for enhancing soilqualities due to …

Machine Learning Approach for Analysis of Ionosphere Parameters for Earthquake Precursors
Abstract: This research explores the relationship between seismic events and predictive indicators, focusing on machine learning-based strategies for early earthquake prediction. It dissects existing prediction approaches, highlighting ionospheric anomalies' correlation with seismic occurrences, particularly preceding earthquakes of magnitudes higher than 5.5. By identifying a lack of comprehensive long-term analyses in the field, the study emphasizes future trends in machine learning-driven EQ-PD techniques using GPS-TEC data for real-time anomaly detection. The methodology …
