Friction properties of open graded asphalt friction course (OGAFC) mixtures play an essential role in ensuring traffic safety, especially under wet weather conditions. This study evaluated the characteristics basic oxygen furnace (BOF) and electric-arc (EAF) steel slag aggregate incorporated OGAFC mixes. Nine sets mixes were fabricated using five percentage replacements (0%, 25%, 50%, 75%, 100%) coarse natural fraction by BOF EAF slags. The effect modified binder type (polymer crumb-rubber...

In hilly and high-rainfall regions, very sharp curves, lack of skid resistance, poor visibility form a major cause for road-traffic accidents in India other similar parts the world. The construction pavements with open-graded friction course (OGFC) wearing surfaces such regions will help enhance road safety due to increased reduced hydroplaning, splash spray, better visibility. OGFC mixes demand high percentage (>90%) good quality coarse aggregates adequate stability load transfer. is...

Open-graded asphalt friction course (OGAFC) is an constructed over a dense-graded and impermeable surface to allow quick drainage of water runoff enable reduction hydroplaning splash spray. OGAFC mixtures demand high-quality aggregates perform the intended functions while transferring traffic loads underlying layer. Steel slag byproduct generated during steel production, large quantities are unutilized in steel-producing countries, including India. This study evaluated mechanical performance...

Open graded asphalt friction courses (OGAFCs) are specialty mixtures used to improve skid resistance and surface drainage. OGAFCs have additional benefits of reduced splash spray, lower tire–pavement interaction noise. Prolonged exposure rainwater load transfer through stone-on-stone contact in demands aggregates that strong hydrophobic. Rainwater acidity is expected affect the aggregate–asphalt bond thus moisture damage performance OGAFC. This paper investigates effect on sensitivity OGAFC...

The vermiform appendix in human is considered to be a vestigial organ by most of the authors. Absence already reported Indian population. Whether performing any function debatable but when present it can create trouble. So if there no we escape ill-effects organ. With this hope study has been done see whether really going rudimentary or absent not. Marerials and Methods: Length, external diameter, number lymphoid follicles, maximum diameter follicle submucous coat, thickening muscle coat...

Drainability of an open-graded asphalt friction course (OGAFC) is a primary functional requirement, which mainly depends on the presence network interconnected air voids. These mixtures, however, are prone to clogging, severely limits their drainability. Clogging predominantly occurs as result deposition external (sand, debris, and dust) internal (stripped-off bitumen) materials into pores OGAFC, referred particle-related clogging. Another type clogging deformation-related it observed...

The open graded asphalt friction course (OGAFC) is a hot mix wearing designed and constructed to mainly achieve the benefits of quick surface water drainage, high skid resistance, low tire-pavement noise. OGAFC thus offers advantages reduced hydroplaning, splash spray, noise, enhanced resistance visibility (especially in wet weather). These mixes demand uniform/open aggregate gradation for permeability; establishment proper stone-on-stone contact good structural stability; higher relatively...

Data driven decision making is becoming increasingly an important aspect for successful business execution. More and more organizations are moving towards taking informed decisions based on the data that they generating. Most of this in temporal format - time series data. Effective analysis across sets, efficient quick manner a challenge. The most interesting valuable part such to generate insights correlation causation multiple sets. This paper looks at methods can be used analyze sets gain...

Eighteen batch compositions containing varying proportions of blast furnace slag, bagasse ash and glass cullet were fired in oil at 1425±25°C for 2 hours, order to investigate the possibility using these waste materials melting glasses. Of eight which gave glasses upon firing, two 50: 50 slag together with 5% TiO2 B2O3 respectively, having superior properties. All showed better chemical resistivity than normal container glass, particularly those minor addition TiO2. The thermal expansion...
