This document analyzes the soft story effect in multi-story buildings located in seismic zone 4 of India. A soft story is defined as a story with significantly less stiffness than adjacent stories, often due to large open spaces. The document describes a model of a 21-story building analyzed using ETABS software. Results show increased displacement and drift when soft stories are located at lower floors compared to upper floors. Design of structural elements in soft stories must account for increased lateral loads during earthquakes. Providing shear walls can increase story stiffness and improve seismic performance of buildings with soft stories.
WIND ANALYSIS OF A MULTI STOREY BUILDING WITH AND WITHOUT MASS IRREGURALITY B...Divya Swapna Nallajeru
Structural Analysis is a branch which involves in the determination of behaviour of structures in order to predict the responses of different structural components due to effect of loads. Each and every structure will be subjected to either one or the groups of loads, the various kinds of loads normally considered are dead load, live load, earth quake load and wind load.
ETABS (Extended Three Dimensional Analysis of Building System) is a software which is incorporated with all the major analysis engines that is static, dynamic, Linear and non-linear, etc and especially this Software is used to analyze and design the buildings. Our project “Wind Analysis of a Multi-storey building with and Without Mass Irregularity” is an attempt to analyze a multi storey building with Mass irregularity. A G+10 storey building is considered for this study. Irregularities are not avoidable in construction of buildings; Adequate precautions can be taken. A detailed study of structural behavior of the buildings with irregularities is essential for design and behavior. Civil engineering structures are mainly designed to resist static load. Generally the effect of dynamic loads acting on structure is not considered. This feature of neglecting the dynamic forces sometimes becomes the cause of disaster, Over the last two decades, Wind engineering has increasingly focused on the modest low rise and high rise structures, since much of the damage and financial loss associated with extreme wind events happens to these minimally engineered buildings like low rise buildings and also huge loss if encountered by the high rise buildings. As some of these model- and full - scale wind engineering data filters into the design codes and standards, one may expect to see reduced hurricane/cyclone damage. However, when one combines the more rapid increase in population along the world's tropical coasts with a generally unacceptably low standard of new building construction inspection, it seems quite likely that loss of life, as well as insured and uninsured property losses will continue to be the norm in the foreseeable future. The wind engineering community needs to be more responsible in forcefully transferring our technical knowledge to the designer and builder. In this present work the analysis for G+l0 Reinforced cement concrete building having mass irregularity in 9th floor and building without mass irregularity are analyzed. This thesis highlights the effects on floor which has different loads (mass irregularity) in multistorey building.
This document provides an overview of a project report on designing a multi-storied reinforced concrete building using ETABS software. The objectives are to analyze, design, and detail the structural components of the building. The methodology involves preparing CAD drawings, calculating loads, analyzing the structure, and designing and detailing structural elements. The building to be designed is a residential building with ground + 5 floors located in Chalikkavattom. Loads like dead, live, wind, and seismic loads will be calculated according to Indian codes and applied in the ETABS analysis model.

Analysis of Building with Soft Storey during EarthquakeIRJET Journal
This study analyzed the seismic response of a G+6 building with and without soft stories located at different floor levels. Five building models were analyzed: 1) No soft story, 2) Soft story at ground floor, 3) Soft story at 2nd floor, 4) Soft story at 4th floor, 5) Soft story at 6th floor. Results showed that buildings without soft stories experienced less story drift and displacement during earthquakes. Buildings with soft stories were more vulnerable to damage, with the highest drift occurring at the soft story level. Locating soft stories higher in a building led to increased drifts in lower stories. Providing shear walls, bracing or dampers can help strengthen buildings against seismic forces.

Construction stage analysis of rcc frames project reportSayyad Wajed Ali
While analyzing a multistorey building frame, conventionally all the probable loads are applied after modeling the entire building frame. But in practice the frame is constructed in various stages. Accordingly, the stability of frame varies at every construction stage. Even during construction freshly placed concrete floor is supported by previously cast floor by formwork. Thus, the loads assumed in conventional analysis will vary in transient situation. Obviously, results obtained by the traditional analysis will be unsuitable. Therefore, the frame should be analyzed at every construction stage taking into account variation in loads. The phenomenon known as Construction Stage Analysis considers these uncertainties precisely. This paper analyzes several numbers of multistorey reinforced concrete building frames of different bay width and length, storey height and number of stories using STAADpro, followed by the construction stage analysis of each model. Also all full frame models are analyzed for earthquake forces in Zone - II (IS 1893 : 2002). Finally, a comparative study of Axial forces, Bending moments, Shear forces and Twisting moments was done at every storey for full frame model (without earthquake forces) and construction stage model (without earthquake forces).

Review paper on seismic responses of multistored rcc building with mass irreg...eSAT Journals
Abstract
From past earthquakes it is proved that many of structure are totally or partially damaged due to earthquake. So, it is necessary to determine seismic responses of such buildings. There are different techniques of seismic analysis of structure. Time history analysis is one of the important techniques for structural seismic analysis generally the evaluated structural response is non-linear in nature. For such type of analysis, a representative earthquake time history is required. In this project work seismic analysis of RCC buildings with mass irregularity at different floor level are carried out. Here for analysis different time histories have been used. This paper highlights the effect of mass irregularity on different floor in RCC buildings with time history and analysis is done by using ETABS software.
Keywords: Seismic Analysis, Time History Analysis, Base Shear, Storey Shear, Story Displacement.
Progressive collapse is the result of a localized failure of one or two structural elements that lead to a steady progression of load transfer that exceeds the capacity of other surrounding elements, thus initiating the progression that leads to a total or partial collapse of the structure. The present study is to evaluate the behavior of G+8 reinforced concrete building subjected to potential collapse. The reinforced concrete structure is analyzed by Pushover Analysis using ETABS Software. It shows the maximum storey displacement and a maximum storey drift values of the components are studied. And the potential of the progressive collapse is determined.

This document discusses concrete distress, its causes, and concrete repair systems. It defines distress as damage to concrete that can occur during production or service life due to varying conditions. Common causes of distress include structural loads, errors in design and construction, drying shrinkage, corrosion, and deterioration over time from chemical reactions, freezing/thawing, or weathering. Proper concrete repair requires determining the cause of damage, evaluating its extent, selecting repair methods, preparing the surface, applying repair materials, and curing. Durable repairs depend on high quality workmanship and materials to ensure the repair is well-bonded and resistant to future distress.
Seismic performance of a rc frame with soft storey criteriaeSAT Journals
Abstract
Soft first storey is a typical feature in the modern multi-storey constructions in urban India. Social and functional need to provide parking space at ground level leads seismic vulnerability of such a building. The computer software usage in civil engineering has greatly reduced the complexities of different aspects in the analysis and design of projects. In the present study an attempt has been made to investigate the seismic behaviour of a multi-storey building with soft first storey. When subjected to seismic loads, it was observed that soft storey frames are less resistant when compared to infill frames.

Analysis of Multi-storey Building Frames Subjected to Gravity and Seismic Loa...Pralhad Kore
This document summarizes the results of analyzing 3-bay, 5-bay, and 7-bay 9-story reinforced concrete frames with varying geometric properties under gravity and seismic loads. The response of frames was studied when incorporating idealized T-beams between points of contraflexure in beams and providing haunches of varying widths at beam-column joints. Results found that axial forces in columns increased linearly from top to bottom, while bending moments decreased with larger beam-column stiffness ratios. Lateral displacements under seismic loads were reduced by incorporating T-beams and haunches, demonstrating their beneficial effects on structural response.

It defines distress as damage to concrete that can occur during production or service life due to varying conditions. Common causes of distress include structural loads, errors in design and construction, drying shrinkage, corrosion, and deterioration over time from chemical reactions, freezing/thawing, or weathering. Proper concrete repair requires determining the cause of damage, evaluating its extent, selecting repair methods, preparing the surface, applying repair materials, and curing. Durable repairs depend on high quality workmanship and materials to ensure the repair is well-bonded and resistant to future distress.
Seismic performance of a rc frame with soft storey criteriaeSAT Journals
Abstract
Soft first storey is a typical feature in the modern multi-storey constructions in urban India. Social and functional need to provide parking space at ground level leads seismic vulnerability of such a building. The computer software usage in civil engineering has greatly reduced the complexities of different aspects in the analysis and design of projects. In the present study an attempt has been made to investigate the seismic behaviour of a multi-storey building with soft first storey. When subjected to seismic loads, it was observed that soft storey frames are less resistant when compared to infill frames.

Analysis of Multi-storey Building Frames Subjected to Gravity and Seismic Loa...Pralhad Kore
This document summarizes the results of analyzing 3-bay, 5-bay, and 7-bay 9-story reinforced concrete frames with varying geometric properties under gravity and seismic loads. The response of frames was studied when incorporating idealized T-beams between points of contraflexure in beams and providing haunches of varying widths at beam-column joints. Results found that axial forces in columns increased linearly from top to bottom, while bending moments decreased with larger beam-column stiffness ratios. Lateral displacements under seismic loads were reduced by incorporating T-beams and haunches, demonstrating their beneficial effects on structural response.
A comparative study of static and response spectrum analysis of a rc buildingTameem Samdanee
This presentation compares the results of static and response spectrum analysis of a 6-story reinforced concrete building. A 3D model of the building was created in ETABS and both static and dynamic analysis were performed. The natural periods and mode shapes were determined from the dynamic analysis. Storey displacements, drifts, and member forces from both analyses were compared. The dynamic analysis produced significantly higher results than the static analysis for storey displacements, drifts, shear forces, and bending moments. Specifically, dynamic displacements were over 2.5 times higher and bending moments were around 2 times higher than the static analysis results.
The document provides a step-by-step guide for conducting a time-history seismic analysis using SAP2000 software. It details how to:

Reinforced concrete is a composite material consisting of concrete and steel reinforcement. François Coignet built the first iron reinforced concrete structure in 1853. Reinforced concrete uses the strengths of both materials - concrete is strong in compression and steel is strong in tension. It is used widely in construction for buildings, bridges, tunnels and other structures due to its high strength and durability.

IRJET- Performance of Framed Building with Soft Storey at Different LevelsIRJET Journal
This document summarizes a study on the performance of framed buildings with soft storeys at different levels. A soft storey is defined as one with lower lateral stiffness than the floor above. Soft storeys are prone to damage during earthquakes as lateral forces concentrate in the soft storey. The study analyzes a G+20 building model with soft storeys placed at different heights using response spectrum analysis. Response spectrum analysis allows studying the effect of soft storey placement by providing the response to applied loads and ground motion conditions. The objectives are to analyze displacement, stiffness, inter-storey drift, and base shear for the different soft storey configurations and identify the arrangement with minimum damage.
Seismic Drift Consideration in soft storied RCC buildings: A Critical ReviewIJERD Editor
Reinforced concrete frame buildings are becoming increasingly common in urban India. Many such
buildings constructed in recent times have a special feature – the ground storey is left open for the purpose of
parking, i.e., columns in the ground floor do not have any partition walls (of either masonry or
Reinforced concrete) between them. Such buildings are often called open ground storey buildings. The
relative horizontal displacement in the ground storey is much larger than storeys above it. The total horizontal
earthquake force it can carry in the ground storey is significantly smaller than storeys above it. The soft or weak
storey may exist at any storey level other than ground storey level. The presence of walls in upper storeys
makes them much stiffer than the open ground storey. Still Multi storey reinforced concrete buildings are
continuing to be built in India which has open ground storeys. It is imperative to know the behavior of
soft storey building to the seismic load for designing various retrofit strategies. Hence it is important to
study and understand the response of such buildings and make such buildings earthquake resistant based
on the study to prevent their collapse and to save the loss of life and property.
IRJET- A Review on Analysis of Soft Story at Intermediate Levels in a Multi-S...IRJET Journal
This document summarizes research on analyzing soft stories in multi-story buildings. A soft story is defined as a floor with large openings like windows, doors or parking areas that make it less stiff than other floors. Previous studies have analyzed the seismic performance of buildings with soft stories at different levels and proposed techniques to improve performance, such as adding bracing systems or stiffening columns. The document reviews literature on pushover analyses of buildings with soft stories and assessing their vulnerability. It is concluded that shifting soft stories to higher levels results in less yielding and formation of lower intensity hinges compared to soft stories at lower levels.
Review on seismic performance of multi storied rc building with soft storeyeSAT Journals
Abstract Soft storey is a storey in which the stiffness is less than 70% of the storey above or less than 80% of the combined stiffness of three storeys above. In a multi-storied building, soft storey is adopted to accommodate parking which is an unavoidable feature. This open ground storey is vulnerable to collapse during earthquake. Soft storey in a building causes stiffness irregularity in a structure. Due to this the structures undergoes unequal storey drift, formation of plastic hinges and finally collapse. The presence of infill wall improves the performance of building under the lateral forces. This paper deals with the study of literature of previous researches. These researches focus on the combination of measures adopted on the structure to reduce the effect of soft storey through static and dynamic analysis. The parameters studied in these researches are storey drift, axial and shear forces bending moment, displacement, time period, base shear. Also, it focuses on the equivalent strut approach to consider the effect of infill wall on the performance on building. From these researches, the interest arises to perform static and dynamic analysis to reduce the stiffness irregularity which is the main reason behind the poor performance of the building with soft storey.

Review on Effective utilization of RCC Shear walls for Design of Soft Storey ...IJERA Editor
Multi-storey buildings in metropolitan cities require open taller first storey for parking of vehicle and/or for retail shopping, large space for meeting room or a banking hall owing to lack of horizontal space and high cost. Due to these functional requirements, the first storey has lesser strength and stiffness as compared to upper stories, which are stiffened by masonry infill walls. Increased flexibility of first storey results in extreme deflections, which in turn, leads to concentration of forces at the second storey connections accompanied by large plastic deformation. In addition, most of the energy developed during the earthquake is dissipated by the column of the soft stories. In this process the plastic hinges are formed at the ends of column, which transform the soft stories into a mechanism. In such cases the collapse is unavoidable. Therefore, the soft stories deserve a special consideration in analysis and design
Seismic Behavior of Multi-Storey Building With Soft Storey Considering Differ...IJERA Editor
This document reviews research on the seismic behavior of multi-storey buildings with soft storeys and different infill materials. It begins by defining a soft storey as one with less stiffness than adjacent storeys, which are common in buildings for parking or other open spaces. The document then summarizes several studies that found infill materials increase seismic resistance by providing stiffness. Lightweight infills reduce stiffness irregularities while steel bracing and shear walls effectively reduce displacement and drift in soft storeys. Overall, the research shows infill materials improve seismic performance by increasing strength and stiffness, with filled frames experiencing the least displacement.

This document summarizes a research study that analyzed the seismic response of a 20-story flat slab building (G+19) with and without shear walls through dynamic time history analysis using ETABS software. Four models were analyzed: 1) a flat slab building without shear walls, 2) a flat slab building with a shear wall in the building core, 3) a flat slab building with shear walls at the building corners, and 4) a flat slab building with shear walls at the side centers of the perimeter boundary. The study found that the addition of shear walls improved the building's lateral resistance and reduced displacements and drifts compared to the flat slab building without shear walls. The most effective configuration was the flat slab building with a
IRJET- Study of Behaviour of Multi-Storey Building with Shear WallsIRJET Journal
1) Shear walls are structural members designed to resist lateral forces like those caused by earthquakes. They improve a building's stiffness and ability to resist earthquake shaking.
2) The document studies the performance of different positions of shear walls in multi-storey buildings subjected to seismic loads. Shear walls placed along the periphery of the building were found to most efficiently resist seismic loads.
3) Shear walls improve a building's performance during earthquakes by reducing lateral displacement, decreasing vibration period, and limiting induced moments and torsion effects from seismic forces. When properly designed and constructed, shear walls provide effective seismic resistance.

This document analyzes the effects of shear walls on a 28-story building modelled in STAAD Pro software. Three models are considered: one without shear walls and two with shear walls in different locations (inward and outward parts of the building). The models are compared based on load transfer and lateral displacement of structural elements. Results show that providing shear walls in suitable locations significantly reduces displacements due to earthquake and wind loads. The document also reviews previous studies on shear wall behavior and modelling approaches. Methodology describes analyzing a 9-story building model with and without shear walls to determine optimal wall locations based on structural displacement and storey drifting.

This document summarizes research on analyzing the seismic performance of multistory buildings with floating columns. It first defines floating columns as vertical members supported by beams instead of extending to the foundation. The document then reviews past studies that found buildings with floating columns are unsafe in seismic zones due to non-uniform mass, stiffness and strength distributions. It proceeds to discuss analyzing multistory buildings with floating columns located at different heights and positions using software, and observing story drifts, displacements and shear forces. The review aims to improve understanding of seismic behavior in irregular buildings like those with floating columns.
IRJET- Seismic Linear Analysis of Low Rise Open Ground Storey BuildingsIRJET Journal
This document summarizes a study on the seismic linear analysis of low-rise open ground storey buildings. It discusses how the presence of infill walls affects building behavior under lateral loads. While engineers often ignore wall stiffness in analysis, this may not be accurate for discontinuous walls in open ground storey buildings. The study aims to evaluate the code-recommended 2.5 multiplication factor for stiffness and examine how infill strength and stiffness impact seismic analysis of open ground storey buildings with different support conditions using commercial software. The results showed the 2.5 factor was too high for beam and column forces, and stiffness was similar with or without infills in open ground storey buildings. Support conditions significantly influenced response.

This document summarizes a study that compares the seismic performance of 30-story high-rise buildings with three different structural systems: conventional beam-slab, flat slab, and an alternate flat-beam slab system. Response spectrum analysis was used to model and analyze the buildings. The time periods, base shear, story shears, displacements, drifts, and column forces of each building were compared. The results showed that the beam-slab building performed better seismically, with lower drifts and accelerations compared to the flat slab building. The alternate flat-beam slab building performance was between the other two but closer to the beam-slab building. The flat slab building had significantly higher drifts and required columns

This document reviews research on comparing the effect of earthquakes on buildings with and without shear walls. It summarizes several studies that found shear walls help reduce lateral displacement during earthquakes. Shear walls resist horizontal forces and provide stiffness. Openings in shear walls can increase displacement, as can thinner flanges on shear walls. Locating shear walls at corners or in the building core was found to minimize displacement compared to other positions. Studies concluded shear walls substantially reduce earthquake impacts and non-shear wall buildings may need retrofitting in high risk areas. Future research could further examine effects of column flanges and different shear wall placements.

This document summarizes a study on the seismic analysis of a multi-story building with and without shear walls using ETABS software. Key findings include:
1) Shear walls significantly increase the rigidity and strength of a building framework and their absence can lead to failure during earthquakes.
2) Buildings with shear walls experience less story drift, displacement, and base shear compared to buildings without shear walls.
3) As the number of stories increases, buildings become more vulnerable to earthquake loads, making shear walls necessary for high-rise structures.
The study concludes that shear walls are an essential seismic resisting element, particularly for taller buildings in high seismic zones, as they greatly reduce structural damage and risk

The document analyzes the performance of shear walls in resisting lateral loads from earthquakes in multi-story buildings through analytical modeling and response spectrum analysis. Four models of a 6-story building are studied - one without shear walls and three with shear walls in different configurations. The results show that including shear walls, especially at the edges of the building, significantly reduces displacements and improves stiffness, making the building more resistant to seismic loads.
An Analysis of a Tall Structure with Shear Panel and floating Columns in Seis...ijtsrd
For effective design and good construction practises of multistory buildings, numerous prior studies have been conducted. When an earthquake strikes a palace, seismic stresses are produced at the buildings floor level. A variety of structure damage was seen after the earthquake. This study was conducted in seismic zone IV. In this work, we examine how tall structures with and without floating columns behave seismically. There are various situations in multistory buildings when it may be difficult to place a column in a certain spot.This study compares two multistory buildings, one of which supports its columns directly from the ground, and the other of which has floating columns in various locations. We prepared the model for the same height, the same plan, and the same loading condition for this analysis using the Staad Pro software. We are using an 11 story building with a 33.8 meter overall height and a layout that measures 18.92 by 19.78 metres for our analysis. There are 50 columns in the building, and 12 of them are supported by ground floor beams rather than the ground.These columns are termed as floating columns. We are providing a shear panels in those locations where the columns are supported. This shear wall transfers the load coming from the floating columns to the wall supporting columns. By considering these conditions we analysis both structures and find out the results of using floating columns in the same building. In this analysis to comparison of behavior of tall buildings using with and without floating column is concluded on parameters maximum beam moment, maximum beam shear and maximum nodal deflection and volume of concrete and volume of steel .. By considering these conditions we analysis both structures and find out the results of using floating columns in the same building. There is small difference in quantity of concrete in building having floating columns and building without floating columns. The Quantity of concrete for building having floating columns is 654.6 CUM and for Building without floating columns is666.4 CUM. In this study we concluded that with increase in ground floor column the maximum displacement inter storey drift values are reducing.

The largest part of the engine is cylinder block. The upper section of the cylinder block consists of cylinders and pistons. Crankcase is supported by the crankshaft and it is placed in the lower section. Aluminum cylinder blocks are lighter than the cast-iron cylinder blocks of the same size. Cylinder block, pistons, cylinder head, crankshaft and connecting rods are the major elements of the engine. IC engine cooling uses either a liquid or gas to remove the unnecessary heat from an internal combustion engine. For special purpose and small engines, air cooling makes for a lightweight and relatively simple system, if we use the materials with better waste heat dissipation it will help in achieving better efficiencies and long life of the engine.

he present paper deals with the effect of volume fraction of fillers on the thermal Properties of polymer composites. This work sees an opportunity of enhancement on insulation capability of a typical fiber reinforced polymer composite. To validate this mathematical model, a set of epoxy based composites, with fiber content ranging 4.38 to 20.10% of volume fractions have been prepared by simple hand lay-up technique. For preparing the composite, natural fiber i.e. Pine apple leaf fibers are incorporated in Epoxy Resin. Thermal conductivities of these composite samples are measured as per ASTM standard E-1530 by using the Unitherm™ Model 2022 tester, which operates on the double guarded heat flow principle at the temperature ranging from 30˚C to 150˚C. And also the Specific Heat of the powdered samples are measured by using Differential Scanning Calorimeter (DSC). By using the MATLAB the numerical analysis is carried out to find the value of Thermal Diffusivity with varying temperatures. It was observed that the thermal diffusivity varies with fiber concentration, but the variation of thermal diffusivity with varying temperature was not so significant.

In the direction of speak to this requirement, we suggest an Adaptive Privacy Policy forecast (A3P) scheme to facilitate users compile confidentiality settings for their pictures. We observe the responsibility of communal context, picture content, and metadata as possible sign of users’ confidentiality preference. We recommend a two-level structure which according to the user’s obtainable times past on the site, establishs the most excellent obtainable confidentiality policy for the user’s pictures being uploaded. Our solution relies on an image classification framework for image categories which may be associated with similar policies, and on a policy prediction algorithm to automatically generate a policy for each newly uploaded image, also according to users’ social features. Over time, the generated policies will follow the evolution of users’ privacy attitude. We provide the results of our extensive evaluation over 5,000 policies, which demonstrate the effectiveness of our system, with prediction accuracies over 90 percent.

This paper presents a novel way to reduce noise introduced or exacerbated by image enhancement methods, in particular algorithms based on the random spray sampling technique, but not only. According to the nature of sprays, output images of spray-based methods tend to exhibit noise with unknown statistical distribution. To avoid inappropriate assumptions on the statistical characteristics of noise, a different one is made. In fact, the non-enhanced image is considered to be either free of noise or affected by non-perceivable levels of noise. Taking advantage of the higher sensitivity of the human visual system to changes in brightness, the analysis can be limited to the luma channel of both the non-enhanced and enhanced image. Also, given the importance of directional content in human vision, the analysis is performed through the dual-tree complex wavelet transform , lanczos interpolator and edge preserving smoothing filters. Unlike the discrete wavelet transform, the DTWCT allows for distinction of data directionality in the transform space. For each level of the transform, the standard deviation of the non-enhanced image coefficients is computed across the six orientations of the DTWCT, then it is normalized.

Ijri te-03-011 performance testing of vortex tubes with variable parametersIjripublishers Ijri
Conventional refrigeration system is a type of refrigeration systems which are costly; noisy, harmful gases released from a machine based on application of this type of system and it is required more maintenance. So, we need to go for unconventional refrigeration systems like vortex tube refrigeration system, which produce less vibrations and which require less maintenance and which are noiseless. It is required for our mechanical engineers to look for enhancing the performance of such vortex tubes. So as a part of my project work, I have chosen various sizes of vortex tubes and test their performances for finding out optimum performance. We will be testing the performance of vortex tubes with different ‘l/d’ ratios and different cold fractions, with different pressures and different nozzle sizes.

The document discusses research on predicting the thermal properties of epoxy composites filled with pine apple leaf fiber. Pine apple leaf fiber was used to reinforce epoxy resin composites at various volume fractions ranging from 0% to 20.1% fiber content. The composites were fabricated using hand layup and their thermal conductivity, specific heat, and thermal diffusivity were measured experimentally. The results showed that the thermal conductivity and thermal diffusivity decreased with increasing fiber content, while specific heat increased with increasing temperature. The composites exhibited low densities and thermal properties, indicating potential as lightweight insulating materials.
Ijri te-03-013 modeling and thermal analysis of air-conditioner evaporatorIjripublishers Ijri
Air conditioning evaporator works by absorb heat from the area (medium) that need to be cooled. It does that by maintaining the evaporator coil at low temperature and pressure than the surrounding air. Since, the AC evaporator coil contains refrigerant that absorbs heat from the surrounding air, the refrigerant temperature must be lower than the air.
In our project we have modeling an air-cooled evaporator for a home 1.5ton air conditioner. Presently the material used for coils is copper and the material used for fins is copper or aluminum. A 3D model of the evaporator is done in parametric software Pro/Engineer.
To validate the temperatures and other thermal quantities like flux and gradient, thermal analysis is done on the evaporator coil by applying properties copper and suitable material like aluminum. And also we are varying inside cooling fluid Hydrocarbon (HC) and Hydro chloroflouro carbon (HCFC).The best material for the evaporator of our design can be checked by comparing the results.
Thermal analysis is done in ANSYS.
Ijri te-03-012 design and optimization of water cool condenser for central ai...Ijripublishers Ijri
Water-cooled chiller systems have typically been designed around entering condenser water temperatures of 85°F with a Optimization of Water - Cooled Chiller – Cooling Tower Combinations The warm water leaving the chilled water coils is pumped to the evaporator of the chiller, where the unwanted heat from the building is transferred by the latent heat of vaporization of the refrigerant. The compressor of the chiller then compresses the refrigerant to a higher pressure, adding the heat of compression in the process. The high pressure refrigerant then moves to the economical condenser water flow of 3.0 USGPM/ton and a 10°F denser, where the unwanted heat is rerange. In recent years, there has been considerable debate on the merits of designing around lower condenser water flow rates with a higher range in order to improve system lifecycle costs. However, two other parameters must also be considered in any analysis - approach and design wet bulb. The question to be answered is: What nominal condenser water flow rate and approach is best from a first cost standpoint as well as from a full load energy standpoint at any given wet bulb.

This document proposes a patient self-driven multi-stage confidentiality safeguard supportive verification scheme (PSCSV) for distributed mobile health care cloud computing systems. The PSCSV allows patients to authorize different access privileges to physicians located across various health care providers. It establishes multi-level privacy-preserving cooperative authentication through an access tree supporting flexible authorization thresholds. The PSCSV enhances security and anonymity by associating it with cryptographic problems and the number of patient attributes. It aims to efficiently manage access control and protect patient privacy and confidentiality at three different authorization levels: directly authorized physicians, indirectly authorized physicians, and unauthorized individuals.
Ijricit 01-004 progressive and translucent user individualityIjripublishers Ijri
This paper proposes a new mechanism called HMADCAS for continuous user authentication and adaptive session management in distributed internet services. HMADCAS uses biometric information like facial recognition to authenticate users transparently without requiring explicit user actions. It assigns adaptive session timeouts based on the quality, frequency and type of biometric data obtained from the user. The goal is to balance security and usability by keeping user sessions open even during periods of user inactivity, while continuously authenticating the user to detect potential intrusions. The paper discusses the system architecture of HMADCAS and describes modules for authentication servers, certificates and continuous authentication using biometrics. It concludes that the protocol can improve security and usability compared to traditional single-factor authentication methods with fixed
Ijricit 01-002 enhanced replica detection in short time for large data setsIjripublishers Ijri
Similarity check of real world entities is a necessary factor in these days which is named as Data Replica Detection.
Time is an critical factor today in tracking Data Replica Detection for large data sets, without having impact over quality
of Dataset. In this we primarily introduce two Data Replica Detection algorithms , where in these contribute enhanced
procedural standards in finding Data Replication at limited execution periods.This contribute better improvised state
of time than conventional techniques . We propose two Data Replica Detection algorithms namely progressive sorted
neighborhood method (PSNM), which performs best on small and almost clean datasets, and progressive blocking (PB),
which performs best on large and very grimy datasets. Both enhance the efficiency of duplicate detection even on very
large datasets.
Ijricit 01-001 pipt - path backscatter mechanism for unveiling real location ...Ijripublishers Ijri
There is a necessity to think over IP traceback technique that help us to track or predict IP address details of malicious
attackers and reveal their actual locations. In spite of lot of research over IP traceback solutions, still there is a necessity
to find an optimal solution that could be implemented at the level of Internet. Real identity of spoofers couldn’t be
revealed by conventional techniques used until today. Through this paper we emphasize primarily on traceback of passive
IP (PIPT) that avoid the procedural risks involved in implementing IP traceback solutions. Path Backscatter (Internet
Control Message Protocol (ICMP) error messages) is probed by PIPT. Spoofing traffic fires these Backscatter, in order to
find the details of spoofer’s topological physical identity and bypasses procedural risks.
Impacts of normal mode and complication mode over Router topological structure are visualized. Nodal info tracker
over parameter i.e Bandwidth, digital sign, source IP, Dest IP and attack status on three network parameters. Spoofing
has been performed on IP addresses, packet data and bandwidth .These three parameter i.e IP addresses, packet data,
bandwidth status and topological nature are been demonstrated through technical stimulation. From the study made
we are able to assure optimized technique of traceback system through PIPT, in order to face the challenges of deployment
at internet level.

SIS OF SOFT STOREY FOR MULTI STRYED BUILDING
IN ZONE-4
INTRODUCTION
Soft-Storey
•A soft story building is a multi-story building with
one or more floors which are “soft” due to struc-
tural design. Soft story buildings are characterized
by having a story which has a lot of open space such
as parking garages, or large retail spaces or floors
with a lot of windows. This soft story creates a major
weak point in an earthquake, since soft stories are
classically associated with retail spaces and park-
ing garages, they are often on the lower stories of a
building, and the upper floors of most buildings are
more rigid than their base floors. As a result, the
seismic behaviors of the base and the upper floors
are significantly different from each other. This phe-
nomenon is called as the soft-story irregularity.
“.
•If a building has a floor which is 70% less stiff
than the floor above it, is considered as a soft story
building. While the unobstructed space of the soft
story might be aesthetically or commercially desir-
able, it also means that there are less opportunities
to install shear walls, specialized walls which are
designed to distribute lateral forces so that a build-
ing can cope with the swaying characteristic of an
earthquake.
•Soft story also exists at intermediate floors too,
floors which are “soft” due to structural design.
These floors can be especially dangerous in earth-
quakes, because they cannot cope with the lateral
forces caused by the swaying of the building during
a quake. As a result, the soft story may fail, causing
what is known as a soft story collapse.
•Soft storey is the one of which the rigidity is lower
than any other storey’s due to the fact that it has
not got the walls with the same properties the other
ones have Soft storey’s are generally present at the
entrance floor (ground floor) of the buildings. This
situation depends on the constructional purpose.
Abstract
Multi-storey buildings are becoming increasingly common in developed and developing countries with the increase in
urbanization all over the world. Many of these buildings do not have structural walls at ground floor level to increase the
flexibility of the space for recreational use such as parking or for retail or commercial use. these buildings which pos-
sess storey that are significantly weaker or more flexible than adjacent storey are known as soft storey buildings, these
are characterized by having a story which has a lot of open space. while the unobstructed space of the soft story might
be aesthetically or commercially desirable, it also means that there are less opportunities to install shear walls, special-
ized walls which are designed to distribute lateral forces so that a building can cope with the swaying characteristic of
an earthquake.
Soft-storey is also called as flexible storey. a large number of buildings with soft storey have been built in recent year.
but it showed poor performance during past earthquake. soft story’s are subjected to larger lateral loads during earth-
quakes and under lateral loads their lateral deformations are greater than those of other floors so the design of struc-
tural members of soft stories is critical and it should be different from the upper floors.
In this thesis “ analysis of soft-storey for high rise building in zone ” 4“, applying the finite element approach to analyse
and explore the behaviour of soft-storey at different floor level of building under seismic load actions and wind load ac-
tions respectively .
ALL ANALYSIS IS CARRIED OUT BY SOFTWARE ETABS. BASE SHEAR, STOREY DISPLACEMENT, STOREY DRIFT IS

Structural Description
The Building analyzed is a G+21 structure, 64.5
meter tall located in 4th zone of india with a gross
area of 780 square meter. The analysis of building
with soft-storey at different floor level is carried out
for seismic design and wind design resp.
Soft-Storey

is provided all around the structure & with walls in-
side the structure, the inner walls are 115 mm thick
plays an important role in increasing the stiffness of
building so they are considered in the analysis.
Columns:C 900 x 900 mm of M40 grade up to 20th

Scope & Objective :
The major aim of this unique project is to study the load
deflection behavior of soft storey buildings when sub-
jected to lateral loading and to develop a representative
seismic performance assessment procedure for soft sto-
rey buildings subject to different levels of ground shaking.
Safety and minimum damage level of a structure could
be the prime requirement of high rise buildings with soft
stories to meet these requirements; the structure should
have adequate lateral strength, lateral stiffness, and suf-
ficient ductility. Among the various structural systems,
shear wall-concrete frame could be a point of choice for
the designer hence the objective of this paper is to study
the effect of soft story on structural behavior of high rise
buildings and seismic response of soft story structures
with shear wall. Also compare the soft story structural
response of high rise building with various type of shear
wall arrangement on building and finding of optimum
design of earthquake resistance soft story buildings by
considering of required performance level. & one of the
most frequent reasons of the soft story behavior is the
abrupt change in the amount of the infill walls between
stories. As the infill walls are not regarded as a part of
load carrying system, generally engineers do not consider
their effects on the structural behavior. Therefore, many
engineer are not conscious enough about soft story occur-
rence because of infill walls, and required attention is not
provided. In this study, effect of infill walls on structural
behavior, especially for the soft story, is investigated in
order to increase the level of knowledge and awareness.
A comparative study was performed on 3-D analysis mod-
el created in ETABS [9], a commercial computer program
for the analysis of structures.
Earthquake Effect on Soft-Storey for High Rise Building
Symmetrical constructions in both plan and height show
a better resistance during an earthquake than those that
do not have this symmetry. Since the presence of a soft
storey which has less rigidity than other storey’s spoils
the perpendicular symmetry of the construction and if
this fact was not taken into consideration, it causes the
construction to be affected by the quake. Because the col-
umns in this part are forced by the quake more than the
ones in the other parts of the building. & the walls in-
crease the rigidity at a certain degree in the construction.
There is 15 % difference of rigidity between a storey with
walls and the one without any walls. During an earth-
quake more moment and shear strength fall on the col-
umns and walls in the entrance floors than the one in the
upper storey’s. If the walls that exist in other storey do not
exist in the entrance floor, these columns are forced more
those in other storeys. Due to the fact that there is less
rigidity in soft storey.
To transfer lateral load from floor diaphragm to the foun-
dation suitable vertical elements are required. They may
be moment resisting frames, shear walls, bearings or a
combination of these. Shear wall is essentially a column
with large depth and small width. In general shear wall
tend to be laterally much stiffer than moment resisting
frames. It is necessary to design the frame for at least
25% of design force in case of structure having a combi-
nation of shear wall and moment resisting frame. This is
essential because if shear wall fails, there may be sudden
collapse of building.
Soft storey attracts plastic deformation resulting in the
collapse of the building. Many such failures due to soft
storey were observed for a good seismic performance it
is necessary to have high redundancy, thus even after
failure of one of the member the structure may not fail.
If they are monolithically connected to each other and if
yielding takes place in one of them then redistribution of
forces takes place.
Criteria for earthquake resistant design of structure I

International Journal of Research and Innovation (IJRI)
The earthquake zoning map of India divides India
into 4 seismic zones (Zone 2, 3, 4 and 5) unlike its
previous version which consisted of five or six zones
for the country. According to the present zoning
map, Zone 5 expects the highest level of seismicity
whereas Zone 2 is associated with the lowest level
of seismicity.
Behavior of Buildings in past earthquakes:
Failures can be categorized as follows-
Failure due to building structure
Building as a whole
Individual members
Failures due to soil conditions
Structural collapse may occur at any level and may
be due to lateral or torsional displacements, local
failure of supporting members, excessive founda-
tion movement and it may also be due to impact of
very close adjoining structure which collapse during
the earthquake.
Design Consideration- for- Lateral Load Bearing
Member
Lateral Load Bearing Members:
In framed buildings, horizontal forces due to wind or
earthquake are resisted by frames in proportion to
their rigidities. In tall buildings of moderate heights
(say, up to 20 story), where both frames and shear
walls must be provided, horizontal forces are as-
sumed to be fully resisted by shear walls alone, with
frames being designed being designed for at least
25% of the total horizontal load. For taller buildings,
the rigidity of shear walls in the upper storey gets
reduced due to the accumulation of deflection of the
storey’s below, necessitating joint participation of
frames and shear walls to resist shear walls alone,
is hen no more valid and more accurate methods
must be adopted to apportion the horizontal shear
between frames and shear walls.
Problems involved in the analysis of shear wall
structures which, in essence, means to determine
the share of storey shear resisted by each sheet wall
for each storey in succession. It is assumed or that
the frames, if present, do not participate in ninety
rigid in its own plane or at least it is more rigid than
any of the shear walls joining it and that the foun-
dation of shear wall is sufficiently rigid to ensure its
fixity at base.
Architectural features:
A desire to create an aesthetic and functionally ef-
ficient structure drives architects to conceive won-
derful and imaginative structures. Sometimes the
shape of the building catches the eye of the visitor,
sometimes the structural system of work together
to make the structure a marvel. However, each of
these choices of shapes and structure has signifi-
cant bearing on the performance of the building
during past earthquake across the world is very ed-
ucative in identifying structural configurations that
are desirable versus those which must be avoided.
Size of buildings:
In tall buildings with large height- to-base size ratio,
the horizontal movement of the floors during ground
shaking is large. In short but very long buildings,
the damaging effect during earthquake shaking are
many. And, in buildings with large plan area like
warehouses, the horizontal seismic forces can be
excessive to be carried by columns and walls.
Seismic Analysis Method:
When a structure is subjected to earthquake, it re-
sponds by vibrating. An earthquake force can be
resolved into three mutually perpendicular direc-
tions-the two horizontal directions (x and y) and
the vertical direction (z). This motion causes the
structure to vibrate or shake in all three directions;
the predominant direction of shaking is horizontal.
All the structures are primarily designed for grav-
ity loads-force equal to mass time’s gravity in the
vertical direction. Because of the inherent factor of
safety used in the design specifications, most struc-
tures tend to be adequately protected against ver-
tical shaking. Vertical acceleration should also be
considered in structures with large spans, those
in which stability for design, or for overall stability
analysis of structures.

• Displacement: The displacement in the struc-
ture due to seismic effect for soft storey at differ-
ent floor is tabulated below. Check any displace-
ment (especially wind load) by H/500.
• Storey drift: The drift in the structure due to
seismic effect for soft storey at different floor is.
As per Indian standard, Criteria for earthquake
resistant design of structures, IS 1893 (Part 1):
2002, the storey drift in any storey due to ser-
vice load shall not exceed 0.004 times the storey
height.
