GROUND IMPROVEMENT TECHNIQUES FOR HIGHWAYS

INTRODUCTION
Transportation - needed for the development of the country.
The main mode of transportation is by road or highways.
In the process of road development, the alignment of road may have to be fixed through the soils which may not bear the traffic loads .
There are various techniques of ground improvement.

METHODS FOR GROUND IMPROVEMENT
Soil stabilization
Vertical drains
Stabilization trenches
Capillary cut-off
Soil nailing
Stone columns

VETIVER SYSTEM FOR WATER QUALITY IMPROVEMENT



INTRODUCTION
Fresh water scarcity is predicted to become the greatest single threat to international stability, human health, global food supply .
According to the World Resources Institute, within 25 years, more than half of the world population will be suffering severe fresh water shortages.


Application of the Vetiver System for wastewater treatment is a new and innovative technology, which has the potential to meet the global water crisis.
It is a natural, ....etc

ABSTRACT:
Ground improvement techniques utilising Vibro methods, Deep Soil Mixing and Grouting
technologies are finding increasing application in Malaysia to solve a broad spectrum of geotechnical problems.
This paper will describe recent applications in Malaysia for four separate projects – Jet Grouting to form stable
cutter-head interventions for a tunnel project; Deep Soil Mixing to support deep vertical basement excavation with
limestone interface for a commercial complex; Vibro Concrete Columns to found reinforced concrete ....etc

THE ROLE OF BUSINESS EDUCATION IN ACHIEVING BUSINESS EXCELLENCE




INTRODUCTION: 


The fiercely competitive twenty-first century business environment poses challenges at every turn. Both public Organizations around the globe are striving to improve their business analysis capabilities to: (1) drive changes from strategic goals; (2) invest in the most valuable projects – those that deliver the high­est value at the lowest cost and risk; and (3 ....etc

Abstract— Computational Private Information Retrieval (cPIR) protocols allow a client to retrieve one bit from a database, without the server inferring any information about the queried bit. These protocols are too costly in practice because they invoke complex arithmetic operations for every bit of the database. In this paper, we present pCloud, a distributed system that constitutes the first attempt toward practical cPIR. Our approach assumes a disk-based architecture that retrieves one page with a single query. Using a striping technique, ....etc

Voltage Stability Improvement using Static Var Compensator in Power Systems

Abstract This paper investigates the effects of Static Var Compensator (SVC) on voltage stability of a power system. The functional structure for SVC built with a Thyristor Controlled Reactor (TCR) and its model are described. The model is based on representing the controller as variable impedance that changes with the firing angle of the TCR. A Power System Computer Aided Design /Electromagnetic Transients including DC (PSCAD/EMTDC) is used to ....etc
