During a Cyclone storm surge related forecasting and warnings in Bangladesh
are provided by Bangladesh Meteorological Department (BMD) by giving
forecasting and warning of the expected storm surge height during a ...
The use of concrete is rapidly increasing worldwide, primarily harming the
environment due to its primary component, cement, which accounts for roughly 8%
of global CO2 emissions. Hence, exploring sustainable alternatives ...
Cement concrete is the most utilized construction material globally. Its extensive
use can be attributed to its ability to take any shape. Cement-based concrete is
prone to microcracking, exhibits minimal tensile ...
Concrete is an essential building material that is always being improved to satisfy
the needs of modern infrastructure while increasing environmental
sustainability. This study evaluates the mechanical and fracture ...
Application of supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) in concrete is
advantageous as it reduces the need for cement production, thereby lessening the
environmental carbon footprint. However, this practice is ...
Plastic waste management has become a critical issue in developing countries,
largely due to increasing economic prosperity, population growth, and
changing consumption patterns. This study employs Material Flow Analysis ...
Bangladesh, a low-lying riparian country situated within the Ganges
Brahmaputra-Meghna Basin, comprises 7% of the total GBM catchment area. The
country experiences abundant rainfall during the wet season; however, it ...
Fiber Reinforced Polymer (FRP) plates are widely used to strengthen structural members, but their potential is limited by plate end debonding failure. Existing models that are developed to address plate end debonding failure ...
Accurate prediction of concrete compressive strength is imperative for investigating the in-situ concrete quality. To avoid destructive testing, developing reliable predictive models for concrete compressive strength using ...
Urban cities in developing countries often suffered from water logging induced by
stormwater runoff due to the underperformance of their existing drainage networks,
influenced by changed land use and climate, with an ...
Buried pipelines, usually carrying essential facilities, are generally known as lifeline
facilities and are considered one of the most susceptible structures under seismic action.
Considerable research has been conducted ...
The selection of construction material for a specific application primarily depends on its ability to withstand the applied load. Roller Compacted Concrete (RCC), typically used for pavement construction, is a stiff, ...
