Comparatively Study of Non-Destructive test with different methods in various curing days [PDF]
In non-destructive testing, materials, components, or assemblies are inspected, tested, or evaluated without being destroyed. In nondestructive testing, materials, components, and assemblies are evaluated for quality and integrity without damaging them ...

Robust Analysis of Various Measurement Uncertainty Parameters in Rebound Hammer Test
Abstract Objective: The major objective of the proposed work is to determine the concrete’s expected compressive strength by evaluating the consistency of concrete using Rebound Hammer Test. Further, the determination of the quality of one component of the concrete relates to the quality of another component based on the concrete meeting criteria ...

Effects of hybrid polyethylene terephthalate fibre and fly ash on mechanical properties of concrete
Cracked concrete is a problem due to several factors such as poor maintenance, insufficient reinforcement or steel corrosion leading to crack propagation. There is a need to increase the load-bearing capacity of concrete and increase its life span.

Collision‐Resilient Winged Drones Enabled by Tensegrity Structures
Based on structures of birds such as the woodpeck, this article presents the collision‐resilient aerial robot, SWIFT. SWIFT leverages tensegrity structures in the fuselage and wings which allow it to undergo large deformations in a crash, without sustaining damage. Experiments show that SWIFT can reduce impact forces by 70% over conventional structures.
