Influence of Compaction Technique on Shear Strength of Modified Subgrade Soil
Abstract: The subgrade soil is considered as the foundation for the roadway structure, it is responsible to provide the required stability for the overlaying pavement layers and to limit the deformation due to traffic load repetitions by furnishing homogeneous stress distribution. For poor soil condition, grid reinforcement or Asphalt stabilization techniques are usually implemented to control the deformation and improve shear strength of poor granular subgrade soil. In this work, the …

Stabilization using Waste plastic for Subgrade soil
Abstract: The Biggest challenge in a developing country like India is to build infrastructure system especially roads with limited financial source available. Use of local materials can considerably lower down the construction cost. If the stability of local soil is not adequate for supporting wheel loads, the properties are improved by soil stabilization techniques e.g. use of waste material obtained from industries or waste plastic in the subgrade soil, this can …

EFFECT OF FLY- ASH AND CEMENT ON EXPANSIVE SOIL FOR FLEXIBLE PAVEMENT DESIGN
Abstract: Out of the many types of soils that prevail on the Earth’s crust Expansive soils are observed to be highly problematic by nature. Particularly under conditions of loading, these soils are highly prone to fail due to shear, crushing or excessive settlement. These factors end up expansive soils as unsuitable soils for any construction. If the strength of the soil is poor, then soil stabilization is duly needed. Stabilization is …

Image Segmentation
Abstract: In computer vision, image segmentation is the process of partitioning a digital image into multiple segments (sets of pixels, also known as super-pixels). The goal of segmentation is to simplify and/or change the representation of an image into something that is more meaningful and easier to analyze.[1][2] Image segmentation is typically used to locate objects and boundaries (lines, curves, etc.) in images. More precisely, image segmentation is the process of …
