This document presents information on sieve analysis, which is used to determine the grain size distribution of soils. Sieve analysis involves shaking a stack of sieves with different sized meshes to separate soil particles. Coarser particles are analyzed using larger sieves while finer particles use smaller sieves.

Class 5 Permeability Test ( Geotechnical Engineering )Hossam Shafiq I
This document discusses permeability testing methods for geotechnical engineering laboratory class. It describes two common permeability test methods: the constant-head test and falling-head test. The constant-head test applies a constant head of water to a soil specimen in a permeameter to measure hydraulic conductivity. The falling-head test similarly uses a permeameter but measures the change in head over time. Both tests aim to determine the hydraulic conductivity value k, which indicates a soil's ability to transmit water and is important for analyzing seepage, settlement, and slope stability.
The triaxial compression test is used to measure the shear strength of soils. [1] It involves placing a saturated soil specimen in a rubber membrane inside a triaxial cell. Cell pressure is applied to saturate the sample while maintaining drainage conditions. [2] Axial stress is then applied through a piston to induce shear failure while cell pressure is kept constant. There are three main types of triaxial tests based on drainage conditions during shear: consolidated-drained (CD), consolidated-undrained (CU), and unconsolidated-undrained (UU). [3] The test allows accurate measurement of stress-strain behavior and pore pressure changes in soil specimens under controlled laboratory conditions.

Geophysical methods of soil/Foundation testing Pirpasha Ujede
Geophysical methods such as seismic refraction and resistivity testing provide non-invasive subsurface investigation over large areas more quickly and cheaply than traditional boring and testing. However, geophysical results require interpretation and are less definitive. Both methods are important, with geophysical testing used for initial screening and borings to accurately determine soil properties. Seismic refraction uses shock waves to determine layer velocities and depths, while resistivity measures subsurface resistivity variations related to moisture, compaction, and material to infer stratigraphy.

The standard penetration test (SPT) involves driving a split spoon sampler into the ground using a 140 lb hammer dropped 30 inches. The number of blows required to penetrate each 6 inch interval is recorded, and the penetration resistance value N is the sum of the blows over the second and third intervals. This test is commonly used to obtain bearing capacity and estimate soil properties like density and shear strength. It is performed whenever the soil stratum changes and at intervals of no more than 1.5 meters.
The Standard Penetration Test (SPT) involves driving a thick-walled sampler into the ground using blows from a hammer. The number of blows required for each 150mm of penetration is recorded. Higher blow counts indicate denser soil. SPT results provide an indication of soil strength properties and relative density, especially in granular soils where undisturbed samples are difficult to obtain. However, SPT results have limitations as the test can disturb soils and the blow count data has low resolution. Correlations are used to interpret SPT results but depend on soil type.

Thereafter these two were sieved to segregate the sand portion and fine contents so as to prepare the reconstituted samples of known percentage of fines in silty sand group and clean sand group, besides, these soil samples were again put to sieve analysis to estimate the grading of individual soil samples and specimen samples are prepared. The results of specimen samples suggested that as the percentage of fines increases then chance of liquefaction decreases.

Paper Title
Particle Swarm Optimization–Long Short-Term Memory based Channel Estimation with Hybrid Beam Forming Power Transfer in WSN-IoT Applications
Authors
Reginald Jude Sixtus J and Tamilarasi Muthu, Puducherry Technological University, India
Abstract
Non-Orthogonal Multiple Access (NOMA) helps to overcome various difficulties in future technology wireless communications. NOMA, when utilized with millimeter wave multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems, channel estimation becomes extremely difficult. For reaping the benefits of the NOMA and mm-Wave combination, effective channel estimation is required. In this paper, we propose an enhanced particle swarm optimization based long short-term memory estimator network (PSOLSTMEstNet), which is a neural network model that can be employed to forecast the bandwidth required in the mm-Wave MIMO network. The prime advantage of the LSTM is that it has the capability of dynamically adapting to the functioning pattern of fluctuating channel state. The LSTM stage with adaptive coding and modulation enhances the BER.PSO algorithm is employed to optimize input weights of LSTM network. The modified algorithm splits the power by channel condition of every single user. Participants will be first sorted into distinct groups depending upon respective channel conditions, using a hybrid beamforming approach. The network characteristics are fine-estimated using PSO-LSTMEstNet after a rough approximation of channels parameters derived from the received data.

Covid Management System Project Report.pdfKamal Acharya
CoVID-19 sprang up in Wuhan China in November 2019 and was declared a pandemic by the in January 2020 World Health Organization (WHO). Like the Spanish flu of 1918 that claimed millions of lives, the COVID-19 has caused the demise of thousands with China, Italy, Spain, USA and India having the highest statistics on infection and mortality rates. Regardless of existing sophisticated technologies and medical science, the spread has continued to surge high. With this COVID-19 Management System, organizations can respond virtually to the COVID-19 pandemic and protect, educate and care for citizens in the community in a quick and effective manner. This comprehensive solution not only helps in containing the virus but also proactively empowers both citizens and care providers to minimize the spread of the virus through targeted strategies and education.
A high-Speed Communication System is based on the Design of a Bi-NoC Router, ...DharmaBanothu
The Network on Chip (NoC) has emerged as an effective
solution for intercommunication infrastructure within System on
Chip (SoC) designs, overcoming the limitations of traditional
methods that face significant bottlenecks. However, the complexity
of NoC design presents numerous challenges related to
performance metrics such as scalability, latency, power
consumption, and signal integrity. This project addresses the
issues within the router's memory unit and proposes an enhanced
memory structure. To achieve efficient data transfer, FIFO buffers
are implemented in distributed RAM and virtual channels for
FPGA-based NoC. The project introduces advanced FIFO-based
memory units within the NoC router, assessing their performance
in a Bi-directional NoC (Bi-NoC) configuration. The primary
objective is to reduce the router's workload while enhancing the
FIFO internal structure. To further improve data transfer speed,
a Bi-NoC with a self-configurable intercommunication channel is
suggested. Simulation and synthesis results demonstrate
guaranteed throughput, predictable latency, and equitable
network access, showing significant improvement over previous
designs

2. The Coarser Analysis
15. SIEVEANALYSIS
In oven dry sample is separated into two fraction
by sieving through 4.75mm returned as coarse
gravel and kept for coarse analysis .
While (-4.75) is subjected to fine sieve analysis
20. SIEVING
PROCEDURE
1. Write down the weight of each sieve as well as the
bottom pan to be used in the analysis.
2. Record the weight of the given dry soil sample.
3. Make sure that all the sieves are clean, and
assemble them in the ascending order of sieve
numbers (# 4 sieve at top and #200 sieve at
bottom ). Place the pan below #200 sieve.
Carefully pour the soil sample into the top sieve
and place the cap over it.
4. Place sieve stack in the mechanical shaker and
shake for 10 minutes.
5. the bottom pan with its retained fine soil Remove
the stack from the shaker and carefully weigh and
record the weight of each sieve with its retained
soil. In addition, remember to weight and record
the weight of the bottom pan with its retained fine
soil.
23. DATA
ANALYSES
1. Obtain the mass of soil retained on each sieve by
subtracting the weight of empty sieve from the
mass of the sieve +retained soil and record this
mass as the weight retained on the sheet. The
sun of these retained mass should be
approximately equals in the initial mass of the
soil sample. A loss of more than two percent is
unsatisfactory
2. Calculate the percent retained on each sieve by
dividing the weight retained on each sieve by
original sample mass
3. Calculate the percent passing ( or percent finer
by starting with 100 percent and subtracting the
percent retained on each sieve as a cumulative
procedure
24. FOR
EXAMPLE
For example:Total mass = 500 g,
Mass retained on No. 4 sieve = 9.7 g
For the No.4 sieve:
Quantity passing = Total mass – Mass Retained
= 500 - 9.7 = 490.3 g
The percent retained is calculated as:
retained = Mass retained/Total mass
= (9.7/500) X 100 = 1.9 %
From this, the % passing = 100 - 1.9 = 98.1%
26. SOIL
For example:Total mass = 500 g,
Mass retained on No. 4 sieve = 9.7 g
For the No.4 sieve:
Quantity passing = Total mass – Mass Retained
= 500 - 9.7 = 490.3 g
The percent retained is calculated as:
retained = Mass retained/Total mass
= (9.7/500) X 100 = 1.9 %
From this, the % passing = 100 - 1.9 = 98.1%
