Structural Engineering: Areas and Applications
Abstract: The area of engineering known as structural engineering is concerned with the strength and structuralintegrity of a building or other structure. Civil engineering’s specialization of structural engineeringmakes ensuring that buildings are secure, stable, and resistant to collapse under applied loads. Itprimarily focuses on the structure’s analysis and design Along with other experts like surveyors,quantity surveyors, and architectural engineers, a structural engineer also contributes significantly tothe team. Applied physical rules and …

Comparison between with and without horizontal bracing on sloping and plain ground: seismic zone iii
Abstract: In this work, the structure selected for study is G+12 storied regular RC residential building. The seismic analysis of 5 bays (6m x 6m room size) buildings on varying slope angles were studied and compared with the same on the flat ground. The seismic forces of zone III were considered as per IS: 1893:2002 in STAAD.Pro software for the structural analysis. In this paper columns, plinth beams, slab beams and …

Influence of Soil-Structure Interaction on Seismic Response of Vertically Irregular Reinforced Concrete Frames
Abstract: Abstract – Present study focus on the behavior of RC frames by performing Equivalent Static and Linear Dynamic Analysis. A reinforced concrete frame having G+10 storey was considered. The investigation on the behavior of RC frame is carried out by using dynamic analysis i.e., Response Spectrum method. The modeling of RC frame is carried out by using finite element-based computer program i.e., STAAD.Pro. The investigation is carryout by considering Strength …

ANALYTICAL STUDY OF SEISMIC RESPONSE OF DOUBLE TOWER BUILDING ON A COMMON PODIUM
Abstract: Abstract The recent surge in global population, particularly in urban areas, has led to a significant rise in the demand for tall buildings structures featuring multiple towers on a shared podium. Such complex configurations often result in intricate interactions between towers and podium structures, particularly under lateral loads induced by earthquakes. One of the critical structural behaviours observed in such systems is the backstay effect, which arises due to discontinuities …

Impact of Video-based Teaching Programme on the Knowledge and Implementation of Post-surgical Exercises in Patients with Abdominal Operations
Abstract: Certain strategies after surgery can lead to pulmonary and other post-operative complications. Engaging in post-operative activities such as deep breathing, using an incentive spirometer, coughing exercises, along with wrist, arm, shoulder, leg, early ambulation, and turning exercises can help restore the normal functions of the lungs, intercostal muscles, diaphragm, and abdominal muscles. Materials/methods: The proposed study employed a quasi-experimental research design, specifically utilizing a pre-test and post-test approach within a …

Application of Grouted Mechanical Couplers in Accelerated Bridge Construction
Abstract: This paper presents two research projects that investigated the performance of the grouted coupler connection details developed for accelerated bridge construction applications. The goal of the first project was to conduct laboratory test and evaluation of the grouted rebar coupler connections similar to those utilized on the Keg Creek Bridge on US Highway 6, the first replacement bridge in Iowa constructed entirely with modular and accelerated bridge construction technologies. The …

Review of Power Efficient MEMS Microphone for Hearing Aid
Abstract: Among humans the most common disorder is partial hearing loss. Hearing health is more critical than ever in the perspective of an ageing population and increased environmental noise exposure. People want hearing aids that are smaller, highly power-efficient, and have better audio quality. MEMS microphones are really well to meet those needs. The commercially available hearing aids uses an expensive battery as well as the maintenance is high as a …

EFFECTIVENESS OF BREATHING EXERCISES ON LUNG CAPACITY OF PATIENTS WITH RESPIRATORY DISORDERS
Abstract: Study was intended to assess the effectiveness of breathing exercises on lung capacity among experimental group. A total of 60 patients with respiratory disorder (30 each in experimental and control group) were selected. The approach used in this study was experimental approach and the design was quasi experimental with non-equivalent Pre-Test Post-Test Control Group Design. Pretest was done for 60 samples on the second day of admission by using spirometer. …
