The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of polypropylene fibre addition into eco-concrete made with fly ash, an industrial by product, as partial cement replacement material, and coconut shell, an agricultural waste, as coarse aggregates, on the mechanical properties of the concrete.Two different mixes were developed, one with coconut sh
Queen Comforter Set Background and Objectives: Sleep disturbance due to muscle cramps or hepatic encephalopathy in patients with chronic liver disease (CLD) can lead to a reduced quality of life.The Pittsburgh sleep quality index (PSQI) is commonly used for evaluating sleep disturbance; however, this questionnaire is time-consuming owing to the lar
The vibration of wind turbine towers is relevant to the reliability of the wind Cocktail Set turbine structure and the quality of power production.It produces both ultimate loads and fatigue loads threatening structural safety.This paper aims to reduce vibration in wind turbine towers using an active damper named the twin rotor damper (TRD).A singl
The accumulation of ions due to increased salinity in the soil is one of the major abiotic stressors of cultivated plants that negatively affect their productivity.The model plant, Medicago truncatula, is the only Medicago species that has Vibrating Dildos been extensively studied, whereas research into increased salinity adaptation of two importan
