RUTTING EVALUATION OF BITUMINOUS MIXES USING WHEEL LOAD TESTERS
Abstract: Abstract: Permanent deformation also known as rutting, is the major mode of distress affecting the service life and performance of bituminous pavements. Rutting occurs due to excessive stresses on subgrade, inadequate strength of bituminous mix, inadequate thickness of pavement layers or poor construction methods. Among these causes, quality of bituminous mix is one of the main factors that contribute towards rutting failure.There are several test methods like Uniaxial tests, Triaxial …

Design and Implementation of Trans-Z-Source Inverter
Abstract: ABSTRACT This paper presents the impedance-source (Z-source) inverters concept to the transformer-based Z-source (trans-Z- source) inverters. The original Z-source inverter (ZSI) contains an impedance network of two inductors and two capacitors connected in a unique arrangement to interface the dc source and the inverter. It has buck and boost function that cannot be achieved by traditional voltage-source inverters and current- source inverters. In the proposed trans-Z-source inverter, the impedance network …
