IMPROVEMENT OF MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF RIGID PAVEMENTS

INTRODUCTION
Transportation-basic infrastructure-development

Rigid and flexible

Basic neccesity-stable against loads

Rigid offers more strength load

But change in temp. warping up and warping down

To relieve stress-joint

Joint from the weaker plane and most of defects occur there

Increase the mechanical properties such as load carrying capacity and cracking resistance

Methods for improvement


Rigid Pavement

INTRODUCTION

Tribology is defined as science and technology of interacting surfaces in relative motion and of related subjects and practices. However the subject Tribology generally deals with the technology of lubrication, friction control and wear prevention of surfaces having relative motion under load.
The two main constituents of Tribology are friction and wear, which controlled and reduced, automatically increases the service life of machine elements.
In past few years, wood iron and skin have been used as journ ....etc

PROPERTIES OF GEAR MATERIAL AND THEIR ADVANTAGES



Introduction

In order for gears to achieve their intended performance, life and reliability, the selection of a suitable gear material is very important. High load capacity requires a tough, hard material that is difficult to machine; whereas high precision favors materials that are easy to machine and therefore have lower strength and hardness ratings. Gears are made of variety of materials depending on the requirement of the ....etc

A STUDY ON WEAR AND EROSION PROPERTIES OF RAIL STEEL



Introduction:
Steels represent the most important group of engineering materials as they have the widest diversity of applications of any of the engineering materials. Generally, carbon is the most important element profoundly affecting the mechanical properties of the steels. The term steel is used for many different alloys of iron. These alloys vary both in the way they are made and in the proportions of the materials added ....etc

Abstract
This paper focuses on the experimental investigation carried out on high strength concrete reinforced with hybrid fibres (combination
of hooked steel and a non-metallic fibre) up to a volume fraction of 0.5%. The mechanical properties, namely, compressive strength, split
tensile strength, flexural strength and flexural toughness were studied for concrete prepared using different hybrid fibre combinations
steel polypropylene, steel polyester and steel glass. The flexural properties were studied using four point bending t ....etc

ABSTRACT

Corrosion, Stress Corrosion Cracking (SCC) and corrosion fatigue failures of high strength aircraft aluminums are costly and potentially catastrophic material problems affecting the aircraft fleet today. As the service lives of aircraft are extended, the increasing inspection and repair of corrosion in aging aircraft adversely affects fleet readiness, the cost of operation, and personnel safety. Shot peening (SP) is a widely used ....etc

Thermal shock on interfacial adhesion of thermally conditioned Glass fiber/epoxy

The fiber/matrix adhesion is most likely to control the overall mechanical behavior of fiber-reinforced composites. An interfacial reaction may result in various morphological modifications to polymer matrix microstructure in proximity to the fiber surface. The interactions between fiber and polymer matrix during thermal conditioning and thermal shock are important phenomena.

Thermal stresses were built-up in glass fiber reinforced epoxy c ....etc
