Evaluating the Capabilities of Reinforced Concrete Open Ground Storey Frames Through Nonlinear Static Analysis
Abstract: The lack of infill in multi-story buildings in urban India, particularly on the ground floor or other floors for purposes such as parking or open storefronts, can result in vertical stiffness irregularity and make the structure more vulnerable to earthquakes. The practice of incorporating open first stories in seismic active areas is widely regarded as undesirable due to the risk of building collapse during earthquakes. With advancements in computer technology …

Evaluation of Rutting Susceptibility of Bituminous Mixes Using Finite Element Modeling
Abstract: Pavement performance mainly depends on the quality of bituminous mixes. Poor bituminous mixes cause premature failures such as rutting or permanent deformation, cracking, bleeding etc. The design of bituminous mixes should contain certain criteria to prevent premature failures. The mixes designed based on these criteria are generally known as performance based mix design and are gaining popularity in the recent times. Among various types of pavement failures, permanent deformation or …

Effect of Aggregate Shape and Binder on the Rutting Characteristics of Bituminous Mixes
Abstract: Rutting or permanent deformation is the depression in the wheel paths due to accumulation of small amounts of unrecoverable strains under the channelized repeated wheel loads. Shear deformation or lateral plastic flow of the bituminous mix from the wheel tracks also results in rutting. Performance of bituminous mixes is influenced by the constituents of the mix made of aggregates and binder. Among various parameters of these two ingredients, aggregate shape …
