Abstract

This paper investigates the impact of the aspect ratio, the characteristics strength of the concrete, and the compression steel ratio on the shear capacity of wide-shallow beams. An experimental program consists of seven specimens, including a control specimen, all tested under a three-point load test. Three specimens were considered for each parameter (the control specimen was included in all three variables). The experimental results were compared to the theoretical values of six different codes of practice; they were also analyzed to determine the ductility, stiffness, and dissipated energy of each specimen. The results indicated that the shear reinforcement was fully functioning until it yielded, with a minimum contribution of 55% of the total shear capacity of the specimens. The aspect ratio and the characteristic strength had a notable impact on the shear capacity of the specimens, while the compression steel ratio had a minor effect on the shear capacity, but it improved the stiffness and the ductility of the beams. Theoretical concrete shear strengths from design codes ranged between 77 and 163% of the experimental values; EN-1992 was the closest code to the experimental results. A comparison between the experimental results and predicted values using GP and EPR methods from previous research showed accuracies of 72% and 81%, respectively. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2023-09-09-012 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

The concrete cover is a part of the concrete that provides the required protection for the reinforcing steel within the required element from external effects. This concrete cover can be damaged for an assortment of reasons, one of which is environmental factors. As a result, this research focused on the effect of worn concrete covering on the structural response of beams. Moreover, the possibility of repairing or replacing this concrete cover with a cement material was done by testing seven beams with the exact dimensions (2700 mm long, 250 mm deep, and 140 mm wide). The first specimen was a control specimen, while in the remaining specimens, a part of the concrete cover was removed in the midspan region with a length of 600 mm and in different formats. The part below the neutral axis (tension zone) was removed in the first two specimens. The part above the neutral axis (the compression zone) was removed in the second two specimens. The whole cover was removed within the specified distance for the other two specimens. In one out of every two of these six specimens, the removed concrete cover was replaced with cementitious material. A flexural test was performed for all specimens, and the conclusion was reached that damaging or removing the concrete cover from the tensile region (below the neutral axis) is less harmful than from the compression region since the beam is often designed as a cracked section. Also, removing the concrete cover from the compression region gives cracks a greater width than removing the concrete cover from the tension region at the same loading level. In the case of replacing the concrete cover with a cementitious one, if the replacement is in the compression zone, it will result in cracks when loading with a width greater than that of the rest of the cases. For specimens that removed their concrete covers from the tension zone, compression zone, and the whole section, the failure loads decreased by 39%, 20%, and 23%, respectively, concerning the control beam. In contrast, all these specimens were repaired with cementitious materials, with an ultimate load capacity approximately equal to the control beams. From these results, any damaged concrete cover for beams in any zone with cementitious materials having high strength and a good bond with old concrete sections can be repaired. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2023-09-07-09 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

Using solar energy through photovoltaic (PV) panels has excellent potential as an alternative energy source. However, the problem of high operating temperatures causing a reduction in work efficiency needs to be addressed. This study aimed to analyze the development of a cooling system to increase PV panels' electrical and thermal efficiency. The research involved analyzing the use of TiO2, Al2O3, and ZnO working fluids by adding 0.5 vol% to water in an active cooling method. The cooling system involved a rectangular spiral and a rectangular tube behind the PV panel. A solar simulator simulated solar radiation with intensity variations to analyze the cooling system's performance in different working conditions. The results showed that the heat exchanger with a nanofluid configuration reduced the panel temperature by 14 oC, which increased the electrical efficiency by up to 4.7% in the ZnO nanofluid. In the rectangular spiral configuration, the ZnO nanofluid reduced the panel temperature from 60 to 45 oC, increasing the Isc value from 2.16A to 2.9A and the Voc value from 21.5V to 23V. This resulted in a maximum power increase of the panel to 53W. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2023-09-08-08 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

Erosion forecasting is a complex issue generated by numerous causes, the extent of which varies based on the unique area and conditions. Changes in rainfall, land cover, and watershed function are the primary causes of increased erosion. This study aims to scrutinize the actual and potential erosion in the mining area (MA), oil palm plantations (OPP), and watersheds reforestation (WR) in Asoloe, South Konawe, Indonesia. We utilized qualitative research methods and surveys with the USLE model. MA shares the highest actual erosion with 332.30 tons/ha/year, with an average erosion of 27.69 tons/ha/year from 2011 to 2022. Meanwhile, the potential erosion is 4747.19 tons/ha/year, with an average of 395.60 tons/ha/year. In terms of current conditions, 44.6% of rainfall engenders erosion with more than 0.5 t/ha and 33.9% with more than 1 t/ha. This study successfully demonstrates that for given location and area characteristics, high amounts of rainfall and changes in land function eminently affect soil erosion and that the potential erosion changes that occur in the Asoloe watershed every year are exceptionally influenced by changes in land use and land function. Therefore, some mitigation strategies and policies must be taken to reduce the risk of future erosion. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2023-09-09-07 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

Environmental concerns have prompted researchers to focus on the development of alternative building materials like geopolymer concrete. However, their implementation requires curing beyond 60°C, which limits their application on building sites. This study aims to design a geopolymer concrete at room temperature (30 ± 5°C) in a laboratory in Burkina Faso using a metakaolin-based geopolymer binder activated by an alkaline solution of NaOH and natural aggregates. Portland cement type CEM I 42.5 was used by mass substitution (0 to 25%) of metakaolin to promote curing at ambient temperature. The samples were cured for 7 to 28 days and characterized for physical, mechanical, and durability properties. The results showed that the incorporation of 0 to 20% cement significantly improved the compressive strength from 9.9 to 30.5 MPa and the tensile strength from 1.2 to 2.2 MPa. However, Portland cement has various effects on the durability of geopolymer concrete. It reduces the porosity accessible by water from 15 to 13% and decreases the resistance to acid attack by increasing the mass loss from 2 to 7%. This confirms that common concrete types C20/25 or C25/30 can be casted using geopolymer concrete on the sites in Burkina Faso once their durability is confirmed. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2023-09-07-04 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

The study was carried out to assess the pollution, impact, and risk level to the surface water environment of pollutants in the water bodies of Soc Trang province, Vietnam. The parameters for evaluating surface water quality and risks included temperature, pH, TSS, DO, BOD, COD, NH4+-N, NO2--N, NO3--N, PO43--P, Cl-, Fet, and coliform. Surface water samples were collected at 35 locations with a frequency of six times (February, April, June, August, October, and December) in 2022. The water quality index (WQI), impact and risk level (risk quotient or RQ, RQ-F), correlation analysis, and principal component analysis (PCA) were utilized in the study. The results show that the surface water has been seriously polluted due to organic matter, nutrients, microorganisms, iron, and salinity. The values of WQI in the dry and rainy seasons fluctuated between bad and very good, indicating that surface water quality is suitable for water transport and other purposes with higher quality requirements. TSS, COD, Fet and coliform have a high impact and risk for the environment in this study area. There were no environmental impacts and risks to NO3--N. Locations with many high-risk pollutants were mainly distributed in residential and coastal areas. The significant negative correlation between the WQI and RQ indicated that the lower the WQI, the higher the environmental risk. The PCA results show that at least six polluting sources affected water quality and caused environmental risks. The results of this study contribute essential and valuable information for improving water quality in the study area through the assessment of environmental impacts and risks. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2023-09-08-03 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

The rainfall warning method for debris flows usually uses rainfall intensity and duration to establish an I-D relationship internationally and determine the rainfall warning threshold for debris flows. This method requires extensive rainfall data from debris flow events in the study area to establish the I-D relationship. However, some areas with occasional debris flows lack sufficient debris flow events to establish I-D relationships to determine rainfall warning thresholds. Therefore, this study uses the infiltration effect of water flow on gravel soil and establishes a rainfall intensity threshold judgment formula for debris flow initiation based on the limit equilibrium method. Taking the Taiqing debris flow that occurred in Laoshan, China, on June 13, 2018, as an example, the rainfall intensity and characteristics of the debris flow are analyzed. The maximum rainfall intensity during this rainfall process far exceeds the rainfall intensity threshold determined by the judgment formula. Using the judgment formula, it can be determined that the rainfall process will cause debris flow. The judgment result is consistent with the actual situation (where a debris flow occurred during the rainfall process). To further verify the accuracy of the judgment formula, the rainfall process of Typhoon Lichma on August 11, 2019, in the study area was analyzed. The rainfall process has a long history. Still, the rainfall intensity is much lower than the threshold of rainfall intensity for the initiation of debris flow, so this rainfall will not cause the occurrence of debris flow. The judgment result is consistent with the actual situation (no debris flow occurred during rains). Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2023-09-09-02 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

This research intends to predict the discharge (run-off) from rainfall for which the model is built using W-flow. The research location is in the Gajah Mungkur reservoir (Wonogiri) in Indonesia. The estimation of reservoir inflow has an important role, mainly in the scheme of reservoir operation and management. However, the heterogeneity of complex spatial and temporal patterns of rainfall and also the physiographic context of a watershed cause the development of a model of real-time run-off and rainfall that can accurately predict the reservoir inflow to become a challenge in the development of water resources. In relation to the analysis and prediction of rainfall, the constraint and problem that is still often faced is the minimal availability of observed rainfall data spatially as well as temporally; the time series of rainfall data is not long and complete enough; and the number of rainfall stations is less evenly distributed. The methodology consists of carrying out the literature study, collecting as much rainfall data as possible to build a W flow model, then carrying out the model calibration and analyzing the prediction of real-time reservoir inflow for operation. The result shows that the dependable discharge of the Wonogiri watershed shows that there are two peak discharges, which happened on February II (the second half of February) and December II (the second half of December). However, the discharge is decreasing in July and reaching its lowest level in October II (the second half of October). Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2023-09-07-015 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

This research aims to develop durable repair materials that can resist shrinkage cracking by exploring the role of creep in reducing shrinkage stress. In this regard, the creep effect can only be quantified if an accurate creep prediction model and theoretical analysis of the shrinkage stress in the patch repair system exist. For this purpose, the research was carried out in the following sequences: first, the research investigated the short-term creep of the patch repair materials containing accelerator and micro-synthetic fibers in the 0.00–0.12% volume fraction range. This short-term creep was measured on five-cylinder specimens (having a diameter of 75 mm and a height of 275 mm). Three specimens were used to determine the deformation of the repair material under unloading conditions, while those remaining were used to determine the total deformation under loading conditions. The amount of creep deformation was determined by taking away the unloaded (shrinkage) and instantaneous (elastic) deformations from the total deformation of the loaded specimens. Secondly, a modified prediction model of ACI 209R-08 is introduced to accurately capture the rate and magnitude of the observed creep of the repair materials. Finally, a formulated theoretical analysis of shrinkage stress in the patch repair system was proposed to examine how creep potentially reduces the repair material's cracking tendency. The results show that the asymptotic value of the creep curve is attained at an earlier age and that its magnitude is greater than that of most concrete. The modified ACI 209R-08 prediction model can closely estimate the repair materials' creep behavior. The best-fit line, residual values, and coefficient of error analyses confirm the modified model's prediction accuracy. The analysis of tensile stress development in the repair layer suggests that creep can reduce stress by up to 50%. With such a reduction, the repair material is expected to be durable in resisting shrinkage and cracking tendency. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2023-09-08-014 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

Heart Rate Variability (HRV) may be used as a psychological marker to assess drivers’ states from physiological signals such as an electrocardiogram (ECG), electroencephalogram (EEG), and photoplethysmography (PPG). This paper reviews HRV acquisition methods from drivers and machine learning approaches for driver cardiac health based on HRV classification. The study examines four publicly available ECG datasets and analyzes their HRV features, including time domain, frequency domain, short-term measures, and a combination of time and frequency domains. Eight machine learning classifiers, namely K-Nearest Neighbor, Decision Tree, Naive Bayes, Linear Discriminant Analysis, Support Vector Machine, Random Forest, Gradient Boost, and Adaboost, were used to determine whether the driver's state is normal or abnormal. The results show that K-Nearest Neighbor and Decision Tree classifiers had the highest accuracy at 92.86%. The study concludes by assessing the performance of machine learning algorithms in classifying HRV for the driver's physiological condition using the Man-Whitney U test in terms of accuracy and F1 score. We have statistical evidence to support that the prediction quality is different when HRV analysis applies these three sets: (i) time domain measures or frequency domain measures; (ii) frequency domain measures or short-term measures; and (iii) combining time and frequency domains or only frequency domains. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2023-09-09-013 Full Text: PDF
