Abstract: This study explores the viability and ramifications of using waste glass in place of fine aggregate in concrete mixtures in order to solve environmental concerns related to conventional concrete production and encourage sustainable building practices. After 7 and 28 days of curing, the concrete specimens' compressive and splitting tensile strengths were assessed. Specimens were made with a water-to-cement ratio of 0.45 and a concrete mix ratio of 1:1.5:3 by volume. Waste glass was used to partially replace fine aggregate in different proportions (10%, 20%, 30%........

Abstract: Superalloy Inconel 625 is widely used in the oil and gas industry as an internal coating for pipes and valves due to its resistance to corrosion. The objective of this work was to investigate the behavior of the Inconel 625 coating, deposited by TIG welding on AISI 4130 steel, in NACE TM0177 solution. Microstructural and chemical analysis of the coating revealed a disordered growth of columnar and equiaxed dendrites and a high iron content throughout its........
