Batter or raker piles are driven at an inclination with a vertical to resist large inclined lateral forces. Many structures like offshore and towers subjected overturning moments due wave pressure, wind load, ship impacts. Therefore in such structures, combination of the batter is used transfer compression tension forces foundation. This paper presents three-dimensional finite element analysis ...

We present the first experimental observation and quantification of evolution three-dimensional (3D) deflection fibres leading up to kink-band formation in notched unidirectional glass fibre-epoxy composites. This has been achieved by situ synchrotron X-ray computed tomography (CT) quantified advanced image analysis. The 3D trajectories individual were extracted monitor change fibre profiles wi...

limitations in the design method used for the support systems of urban buildings make them vulnerable to damage by adjacent excavations. this paper examines a traditional system used to support excavation sites and adjacent buildings in which inclined struts are connected to the wall or foundation of the adjacent building. this method can be considered to be a type of shoring or underpinning. t...

this research with the aims of microbial flora determination in pasteurized milk and it’s shelf life study based on microbial and physicochemical parameters were performed within 10 days. in this study, 60 pasteurized milk samples randomly were selected and then total count of bacteria and total psychrophilic bacteria count were performed. to investigate microbial flora of pasteurized milk, col...

Experimental investigations has been done to find out the heat transfer characteristics and friction factor of water based Al2O3 nanofluids as a coolant in  brazed plate heat exchanger. Plate heat exchanger either use horizontally or vertically. The base plate of the plate heat exchanger was kept inclined at (0⁰, 30⁰ ,60⁰, 90⁰). The experimentation have been done on the two different concentrat...

We develop a model to study the locomotion of snakes on inclined planes. We determine numerically which snake motions are optimal for two retrograde traveling-wave body shapes, triangular and sinusoidal waves, across a wide range of frictional parameters and incline angles. In the regime of large transverse friction coefficients, we find power-law scalings for the optimal wave amplitudes and co...
