Abstract

Today, ordinary Portland cement-based concrete is one of the most important building materials and is widely used in new building constructions, which is an environmental problem, as cement production accounts for 5%-8% of the world's carbon dioxide emissions. Thus, the need for using a more environmentally friendly concrete (EFC) is growing. However, it is stated that the Swedish construction companies are reluctant to change and adopt new construction methods and materials. This research aims to map the important criteria for the Swedish construction companies in order to choose EFC for using in their projects. The study is carried out based on a literature study and a questionnaire survey. The questionnaire is designed considering the significant criteria of EFC derived from the literature study. The respondents from the Swedish construction companies were asked to rate these various criteria. The collected results are presented with bar graphs. The results show that the highest valued criterion by the respondents for the use of EFC in the projects is its long-term properties while the lowest one is the possibility of introducing a specific ceiling for greenhouse gas emissions of companies. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2023-09-01-015 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

A local scour is the removal of bed material from around the pier of the bridge. This bed removal is considered a big problem and is of great concern for hydraulic engineers. They should find economic solutions for this problem. The exaggerated local scour around bridge piers leads to many problems for the whole bridge structure, such as stability problems that may lead to the bridge's destruction. This paper aims to verify the scour depth around different shapes of uniform bridge piers for different flow conditions than those done by previous researchers using different prediction models. Where the consistency of previous experimental investigations is verified by multiple nonlinear regression analysis (MNLR), Gene Expression Programming (GEP) and Artificial Neural Network (ANN) models. In the comparison of values that were measured and predicted by the four models (CFD, MNLR, ANN, and Gene), it is seen that the ANN model has the ability to predict the Ys/b values higher than other models used in relation to the measured values. This makes the ANN model superior in predicting the Ys/b value over the other used models, followed by the Gene model. In comparison, the values of the R2and RMSE for the four models that were used in this study, for the Ys/b model using the ANN had a value of 0.9978 and 0.0147, respectively, while those for the Ys/b model using the Gene model were 0.9800 and 0.0375, respectively. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2023-09-01-011 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

The amount of rainfall can be used to estimate the runoff that enters a reservoir. Runoff is influenced by land use, and soil type greatly affects the amount of runoff that will occur. This study discusses the development of a hydrological model with the application of the Hydrologic Engineering Center (HEC-HMS) in the Karangmumus watershed using soil data that has been verified in the field and divided into soil zones based on soil permeability testing in the laboratory. With the help of Geographic Information System (GIS) and Geospatial Hydrological Model (HEC-GeoHMS) applications, it is possible to identify the flow of the Karangmumus watershed and the Lempake Dam in Kalimantan by simulating the rain runoff process. The hydrological model was developed in the HEC-HMS by recording daily rainfall events from 2009 to 2019. With a daily period, then, the zoning soil type data was entered based on the results of soil permeability testing with the help of the application of the soil conservation curve method (SCS-CN), then discharge transformation, and calculation of water loss, including routing with Muskingum and SCS-Hydrograph applications. Based on the distribution of the CN value, the theoretical runoff is calculated and then calibrated with the observed discharge in 2017 and 2018, and then validated with the observed discharge in 2019, showing good results with a coefficient of determination between 0.89 to 0.92. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2023-09-01-06 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

Control algorithms are an essential part of effective semi-active vibration control systems used for the protection of large structures under dynamic loading. Adaptive control algorithms, which are data-driven methods, have recently been developed to replace model-based control algorithms, thus improving efficiency. The dynamic parameters of semi-actively controlled infrastructures will change after significant vibration loading. As a result, these structures require real-time, effective control actions in response to changing conditions, which classical controllers are unable to provide. To improve the efficiency of the semi-active controller, the optimal control algorithm was developed in this study. The algorithm is the integration of the replicator dynamics with an improved non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm (NSGA), which is NSGA-II. The optimal parameters of replicator dynamics (total resources, growth rate, and fitness function), which represent the behavior of the actuators, were obtained through a multi-objective optimization process. The new control system was then used to reduce the vibrations of the isolated highway bridge, which is equipped with semi-active control devices known as MR dampers. Moreover, the current study improved the performance of the structural control system with minimum energy consumption by assigning a specific growth rate to each control device. In order to reduce the vibrations of the highway bridge, the results show that the performance of the optimal replicator controller is better than the performance of the classical control algorithms. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2023-09-01-01 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

The structural performance of a steel-concrete-steel sandwich beam (SCSSB) with welded stirrups to the steel skin plates as shear connections exposed to a pure torsion load was studied in this paper. Eight SCSSB specimens were fabricated and tested under pure torsion. The effects of the compressive strength of the concrete core, 26 and 35 MPa, the thickness of the top and bottom steel skin plates, 2 and 4 mm, and the degree of shear interaction, which represents the number of beam stirrups, between the steel skin plates and the concrete core are 75, 100, and 125%. The experiment beams revealed a similar mode of failure for all SCSSB specimens regarding all considered variables, which started with inclined cracks along the specimens’ side faces and ended with local separation between one of the steel skin plates (top or bottom) and the concrete core. In addition, the experiment results showed an increase in the torsional strength with the increase in the shear connection ratio and the thickness of the steel skin plate, as well as with the increase in the strength of the concrete core. However, it was observed that the torsional ductility of the tested beams is proportional directly to the steel skin plate thickness and degree of interaction and inversely with the concrete compressive strength. The results showed that the use of steel skin plates with welded stirrups as a shear connection could reduce the negative effect of increasing the compressive strength of the concrete core on the torsional ductility of SCSSB. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2023-09-01-016 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

A pico-hydro-type crossflow turbine (CFT) with an off-grid system configuration is a suitable option to increase the electrification ratio in remote or rural areas because it has a simple shape and can be applied in run-of-river conditions. Yet, a comprehensive study is necessary for the CFT to be applied to run-of-river conditions (low head and extreme fluctuation discharge), since this is categorized as an impulse turbine. One solution to optimize the CFT’s performance in this context is to increase the lift force. Hence, this study investigated the effect of the upper blade of the CFT with convex and curved configurations using the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) method. The CFD transient approach uses a moving mesh feature, and the solver is pressure-based in low-head conditions (5 m pressure). The CFD results and analysis of variance (ANOVA) calculation results from this study reveal that the upper CFT affects the performance of the turbine. The relationship of the CFT performance with the rotation and specific speed is parabolic. The express empirical law relation for performance to rotation is a four-order polynomial, and for performance to a specific speed, a three-order polynomial. Based on empirical laws, a CFT with a convex blade is recommended for conditions with low head and extreme fluctuation discharge since it has a wider range of specific speeds than a curved blade, propeller, or Kaplan, Pelton, or Francis turbine. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2023-09-01-012 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

Peat soil was defined as the highly organic surface layer derived primarily from plant remains. Peat, on the other hand, was the subsurface of wetland systems, consisting of unconsolidated superficial layers with a high non-crystalline colloid (humus) content. Peat soils have a low shear strength of 5 to 20 kPa, a high compressibility of 0.9 to 1.5, and a high moisture content of >100%. The purpose of the study was to prognosticate the potential of Eco-Processed Pozzolan (EPP) as peat soil stabilization material with improved technique and its consequence of the methods, which was the peat soils index properties and analyse the characteristics of the peat soil stabilization before and after treatment using Eco-Processed Pozzolan (EPP). The soil was mixed with 10, 20, and 30% Eco-Processed Pozzolan (EPP) and then compacted (compaction test) in a metal mould with an internal diameter of 105 mm using a 2.5 kg rammer of 50 mm diameter, freefalling from 300 mm above the top of the soil Three layers compaction of approximately equal depth and 27 blows spread evenly over the soil surface for each layer. The expected result to accomplish the main purpose was to prognosticate the potential Eco-Processed Pozzolan (EPP) as peat soil stabilization material with improved technique and its consequence of the methods. According to the findings, peat soil treated with EPP will transform its qualities from peat to usable soil. However, the presence of moisture will reduce the mixture's ability. According to the findings of this study, the optimum EPP for stabilizing peat soils was 30-40%. Correspondingly, the elemental composition of peat soil mixed with EPP improved regardless of Carbon, Ca composition. Comparatively, the amount of Silicon, Si increased from 6.5% (Peat + EPP 10%) to 12.9% (Peat + EPP 40%) due to the crystallization of EPP and peat. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2023-09-01-07 Full Text: PDF
