Abstract

In this paper, the performance of a gas engine-driven heat pump (GEHP) was experimentally studied for space heating and cooling. An experimental test facility was developed for this purpose. The effect of key parameters on system performance was investigated under both cooling and heating modes. The results showed that as the engine speed increased from 1400 to 2000 rpm, the cooling and heating capacities increased by 23% and 28.5%, respectively while the GEHP system Primary Energy Ratio (PER) decreased by 13.5% and 11.7% in the cooling and heating modes, respectively. The system PER in the cooling mode was found lower than that in the heating mode. This indicated that heat recovery from the engine cylinder and exhaust gas was very important for improving the GEHP system performance. In the heating mode, the ambient temperature and condenser water flow rate had a large effect on the system heating capacity and PER, and insignificant effect on the gas energy input. In the cooling mode, the chilled water inlet temperature showed a large effect on both cooling capacity and gas energy input while the chilled water flow rate had a large effect on cooling capacity and insignificant effect on the gas energy input.

Abstract

This paper provides a review of studies aimed at developing operating speed prediction models for road tangent sections. The review included many studies, conducted in different geographical areas of the world, in terms of road classification, types of vehicles, techniques and devices used in data collection, number of study sites, the principle adopted in extracting the free-flow speed, as well as the topography that the road path passes through and grads of the studied sections. Moreover, this review mentioned the analysis methods adopted in the modeling, and included the model formulas that the researchers have reached in their studies, as it showed all the geometric elements and traffic characteristics that appeared in the models as independent variables. The author has avoided critiquing or evaluating the methodologies of the reviewed research and accordingly this paper has been prepared for documentation only. The author aims primarily to save the effort and time of graduate students and researchers interested in modeling the operating speed on straight segments, as all data and information are arranged in tables and coordinated for this purpose. Doi: 10.28991/cej-2021-03091784 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

Fiber-Reinforced Concrete (FRC) is a competitive solution for the durability of reinforced structures. This paper aims to observe moment redistribution behavior occurring due to flexural and shear loading in GFRP reinforced continuous concrete beams. A rectangular cross-section was adopted in this study with dimensions of 200 mm in width and 300 mm in depth with a constant shear span-to-depth ratio of 3. The reinforcement ratio for the top and bottom were equal at sagging and hogging moment regions. A finite element model was created using ANSYS and validated with the existing experimental results in the literature review. Based on the literature review, the parametric study was conducted on twelve beam specimens to evaluate the influence of concrete compressive strength, transversal GFRP stirrups ratio, and longitudinal reinforcement ratio on the redistribution of the moment in beams. Several codes and guidelines adopted different analytical models. The CSA S806 adopted the modified compression field theory in predicting the shear capacity of the simply supported beams. Recently, various researchers encountered several factors and modifications to account for concrete contribution, longitudinal and transverse reinforcement. A comparison between the predicting shear capacity of the generated finite element model and the analytical model and the existing data from literature was held. The generated finite element model showed a good agreement with experimental results while the beam specimens failed in shear after undergoing significant moment redistribution from hogging to sagging moment region. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-SP2021-07-02 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

The goal of this study is to assess the fresh and hardened properties of self-compacting concrete (SCC) prepared using locally available materials. This research includes also the impact of polypropylene (PP), steel and hybrid fibers on the same properties. In addition, the mechanical properties of SCC specimens (with and without fibers) at high temperatures, including as compressive, tensile, and flexural strengths, will be determined. Four different SCC mixtures (with and without fibers) are prepared, tested, and assessed in order to attain these goals. The specimens were heated to various temperatures (200, 400, 600, and 800) at a rate of 5 degrees Celsius per minute for each test. The temperature was remained constant at the target temperature for one hour before cooling to ensure a consistent temperature throughout the specimen. According to the test results, all of the mixes have good consistency and workability in terms of filling and passing ability. In addition, the inclusion of fibers lowered the workability of SCC slightly. Also, the compressive, tensile, and flexural strengths improved with increasing temperature up to 200 °C and dropped at temperatures over 200 °C, according to these findings. Within the SCC, the PP fibers lowered and removed the risk of spalling. Concrete mixtures containing steel fibers and hybrid fibers have the finest mechanical characteristics and spalling resistance as temperature rises. Weight losses were lower in SCC mixtures with PP and steel fibers than in those without PP and steel fibers. As the temperature rose, all SCC mixes lost mass and UPV decreased until the samples spalled (as in plain SCC and SCC with steel fibers) or were questionable (as in SCC with PP and SCC with hybrid fibers). Doi: 10.28991/cej-2021-03091779 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

The study was intended to find out the catchment characteristics of an area and the IDF (Intensity-Duration-Frequency) analysis of rainfall of that area using Gumbel method and Log Pearson type III method. In different studies, the IDF equations are generated for an area without acknowledging the catchment, stream length of the catchment and the time of concentration. In our study the Digital Elevation Map (DEM) of Dhaka was used. The DEM was analyzed using QGIS to find out different catchments, catchment area, catchment slope, stream length etc. The rainfall data of 18 years was collected from BMD (Bangladesh Meteorological Department) at 24 hours’ interval. This rainfall data was analyzed using Gumbel method and Log Pearson Type III method because these methods give accurate prediction for return period more than the range of the acquired data. The return period was taken as 2 years,5 years,10 years,25 years,50 years and 100 years. Finally, the intensity for different return period was plotted against the duration of the rainfall to find out the IDF curve. For any kind of rainfall analysis to find the peak discharge for designing storm sewage lines, small hydraulic structures or calculating surface runoff, infiltration, sub-surface runoff, discharge at rivers or water bodies, the derived IDF equations can be used. Even to find out peak discharge with a return period more than 18 years these set of equation can be used. This method can also be used in other sub urban or urban areas to find out the time of concentration of that catchment and IDF relationships for short duration rainfalls.

Abstract

This work is devoted to finding an estimate of the convergence rate of an algorithm for numerically solving the optimal control problem for the three-dimensional heat equation. An important aspect of the work is not only the establishment of convergence of solutions of a sequence of discrete problems to the solution of the original differential problem, but the determination of the order of convergence, which plays a very important role in applications. The paper uses the discretization method of the differential problem and the method of integral estimates. The reduction of a differential multidimensional mixed problem to a difference one is based on the approximation of the desired solution and its derivatives by difference expressions, for which the error of such an approximation is known. The idea of using integral estimates is typical for such problems, but in the multidimensional case significant technical difficulties arise. To estimate errors, we used multidimensional analogues of the integration formula by parts, Friedrichs and Poincare inequalities. The technique used in this work can be applied under some additional assumptions, and for nonlinear multidimensional mixed problems of parabolic type. To find a numerical solution, the variable direction method is used for the difference problem of a parabolic type equation. The resulting algorithm is implemented using program code written in the Python 3.7 programming language.

Abstract

Despite their drastically different chemical ingredients and interactions, geopolymer concrete exhibits many of the same features as ordinary concrete. Among these properties is drying shrinkage. As in normal concrete, dry shrinkage in geopolymer concrete may cause cracking if the geopolymer concrete is bound, which affects the integrity of the structure in the future. It's important to measure drying shrinkage as soon as possible because it's the cause of early age cracking, which happens when the concrete isn't very strong. The purpose of this study is to determine how to reduce the dry shrinkage value of geopolymer concrete by using different types of fibers. Three types of fibers were used to determine their effect on the dry shrinkage of geopolymer concrete when compared with a reference mixture without the fibers. Metakaolin was used as a binder for the concrete geopolymer. As for the fibers, steel, carbon and polypropylene fibers were used in proportions of (0, 0.5, and 1%). The results showed an improvement in dryness shrinkage when adding fibers in general, with a difference in values between the different types of fibers. Steel fibers had the lowest amount of dry shrinkage. The temperature had a direct influence on the decrease in the extent of the shrinking, since the samples handled at higher temperatures had less dryness to begin with. Doi: 10.28991/cej-2021-03091780 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

This research presents an experimental investigation of the rehabilitation efficiency of the damaged hybrid reinforced concrete beams with openings in the shear region. The study investigates the difference in retrofitting ability of hybrid beams compared to traditional beams and the effect of two openings compared with one opening equalized to two holes in the area. Five RC beams classified into two groups, A and B, were primarily tested to full-failure under two-point loads. The first group (A) contained beams with normal weight concrete. The second group (hybrid) included beams with lightweight concrete for web and bottom flange, whereas the top flange was made from normal concrete. Two types of openings were considered in this study, rectangular, with dimensions of 100×200 mm, and two square openings with a side dimension of 100 mm. A full wrapping configuration system for the shear region (failure zone) was adopted in this research. Based on the test results, the repaired beams managed to recover their load carrying capacity, stiffness, and structural performance in different degrees. The normal concrete beam regains its total capacity for all types of openings, while the hybrid beams gain 84% of their strength. The strength of hybrid concrete members compared with normal concrete is 81 and 88% for beams of one opening and two openings, respectively. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2022-08-01-012 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

This paper presents results of a plane strain comprehensive numerical study on the interaction between a 31-meter-deep excavation and an adjacent 12-story building; the study emphasizes on parametric analyses with respect to the building characteristics, such as the building width in plan (B), i.e., the side perpendicular to the excavation wall, the embedment depth of the building foundation (D), as well as the building distance to the excavation edge (e). Through the parametric analyses and assuming different values for B, D, and e, settlements and rotations of the building and horizontal displacements of the excavation edge were computed and evaluated using the finite element method adopted in PLAXIS 3D software. Prior to the parametric study, the numerical modeling was verified by modeling a recorded case study, which is an anchored deep excavation adjacent to a 12-story building. The results of the parametric analyses suggest that for the given soil and excavation, (1) the position of the developing potential failure surface, PFS, in the soil behind the excavation is almost independent from the building location and (2) the position of the building with respect to the outcrop of the PFS in the excavation crest, i.e., if the building locates fully on the potential failure wedge or PFS intersect the building base, is the main factor affecting the induced displacements and rotations of the building.
