Analysis of Box Culvert with Different Aspect Ratio
Abstract: Box culverts are the default buried structure type, where pipe solutions are not suitable. Their larger openings are often required to provide adequate hydraulic capacity. Box culverts are also frequently used for pedestrian or cattle underpasses. The reinforcement used in concrete box culverts can be either conventional bar reinforcement or welded wire fabric. Welded wire fabric has yield strength slightly larger than conventional bar reinforcement. Standard designs for precast concrete …

Flexural Behavior of Recycled Asphalt Concrete
Abstract: The operational health of the road network is of the utmost importance for economic and social life. Fatigue life is affected by the growth and accumulation of cracks, under the action of repeated vehicular loading, aging and effect of the environment. The flexural behavior of asphalt concrete depends mainly on the flexibility of the pavement mixture which deteriorate gradually with time. Recycling could be a suitable action to reserve such …

Experimental Study on Scour Around T-Head Groynes in Open Channel
Abstract: Groynes are the river training structures which are used extensively in anti-erosion activities. An experimental investigation of scouring around the groynes in an open channel is presented in this paper and an attempt to analyze the behavior of T-shaped groynes in terms of its applicability in alluvial channels was made. Tests were conducted by varying the symmetry of flange in three different manners (symmetric, larger flange in upstream and downstream …

Distributed computing and agent technology
Abstract: The technology of intelligent agents and multi-agent systems has fundamentally transformed distributed computations and software development changing the way in which complex, distributed computing and communicating systems are conceptualized, designed, assembled and implemented. In this paper, we study distributed computations in the context of agent organizations and principal-agent relation making emphasis on the organizational structure of agent functioning and interaction. To achieve higher generality and at the same time, better …

Enhancing Hearing Accessibility Through IoT: A Review of Smart Hearing Device
Abstract: The challenges faced by individuals with hearing impairments extend beyond the actual loss of hearing and highlight a broader issue of communication barriers. Traditionally, it is assumed that individuals with hearing impairments would struggle with lip-reading and speaking, and therefore, they would benefit from using sign language and attending specialized schools to communicate with others. However, leveraging cutting-edge voice-to-text recognition technology could significantly narrow the gap between the hearing and …

Image Denoising Using IBP n Filter
Abstract: Abstract The ultrasound images are blurred by the multiplicative noise that is the Speckle pattern. It decreases the contrast and resolution of ultrasound images those outcomes in weak interpretation of image characteristics. In several image processing mechanisms like segmentation, classification and pattern recognition the speckle is a significant part. The conventional methods calculate the computation of LBP on gradient. The limitation of this technique was that the LBP mechanism divide …
