Mechanical properties of concrete containing palm oil fuel ash and modified expanded polystyrene beads as replacement materials using finite element method

Nowadays, so much waste material was dumped and produced by the industrial sector. In this research, the Palm Oil Fuel Ash (POFA) and Modified Expanded Polystyrene beads (EPS) were used as replacement material. The purpose of this research was to focus on replacement of the modified expanded polystyrene beads (EPS) as a fine aggregate and the palm oil fuel ash (POFA) as a cement in term of mechanical properties of concrete. For Modified EPS will replace with aggregate from 10.0 % and 20.0 % While, for POFA will replace with cement from 10.0 %, 20.0 % and 30.0 %. The data of the material replacement for POFA and Modified EPS will be taken from previous study. Furthermore, the concrete cubes will be analyzed using software called ABAQUS. ABAQUS software is used because this software can measure the concrete cubes in such detail. This test will be performed on a cube that has reached the age of 28 days by following the previous experimental results. In addition, the software can also validate the work for the stress and strain of the graph by analyzing the concrete cubes. Information on Modified EPS and POFA can be filled in this software. Furthermore, it can also analyze mechanical properties of concrete that containing. Modified EPS and POFA. Indirectly, this will help compare the strength of concrete cube that containing of Modified EPS and POFA

Treatise on increasing bakery efficiency. Specimens for figuring costs, expenses and results.

The tendency among some of the bakers to conduct their business without an adequate system for determining the relative costs has led a number of them to fail. To-day forces are at work which compel all bakers to have a system. This they need in order to be successful and the more comprehensive the method employed the greater is the individual chance for success. To state that the baker must make his profit out of what he formerly wasted may not be out of place. He must stop the old leak, that means his present-day profit

The Taste Remembered. On the Extraordinary Testimony of the Women from Terezín

The article presents an attempt to combine food studies (also termed the anthropology of food) with scholarly reflection regarding memory. The analysis focuses on the book entitled In Memory’s Kitchen. A Legacy from the Women of Terezin [ed. Cara de Silva 2006], containing recipes for Jewish dishes written down by women from the Teresienstadt ghetto. But some dozen recipes that have survived do not make it a cookbook, which is essentially meant to be functional. It is more of a remembrance, a testament, and also a source of knowledge of culture at a given point in time. It is also a testimonial document. Recipes collected by de Silva tell much about their authors. They define their roles as wives and mothers. In addition, the Terezin notes point to a culinary heritage, the religious principles of food preparation and the social and economical conditions that shaped the culinary preferences and the diets of women locked in the ghetto. The article demonstrates that the actions of preparing and consuming food are a constantly repeated practice, which is connected in a network of relationships with other practices. This practice it is anchored in the everyday life, embedded in the family’s biography and fused with childhood memories. Food is presented as a sign of identity, the social bond and the community of family and friends, and also as a gift that serves to uphold these ties

The Chinese in California: Archaeology and Railroads at the Turn of the Century

Research on Chinese sites in California have focused on ethnicity, ethnic relations, and the material expression of ethnicity all of which are key issues in overseas Chinese archaeology. Chinatown sites produced data that helped define Chinese culture and experience in historical California. One railroad construction work camp site identified in 2016 located in the Cajon Pass in the late 1800’s offers the potential for insight into the lives of the workers. Chinese occupation in San Bernardino is not well understood, and the site may offer information on the culture, traditions, and integrations of the workers. Thousands of Chinese men left their impoverished villages; wrecked by the British Opium Wars, the Taiping Rebellion, and multiple clan wars, and were recruited by industries and immigrated to fill the demand for work as laborers, with wages lower than their white counterparts. Anti-Chinese racism and violence increased throughout the years in California, culminating in the Chinese Exclusion Act passed in 1882, denying citizenship and pushing out those who did not meet criteria. Part of the field of historical archaeology focuses on the history of the modern world, such as early colonial settlements on the East coast or early Spanish settlers on the West, and is able to give unbiased accounts using the material remains, offering a perspective outside of written history. These trends left the study of the Chinese in California much to be desired, with segregated and static attention given where there was any at all. Chinese immigrants brought many items with them to California, including traditional ceramics for food storage, local currency, and leisurely items such as traditional games and smoking pipes. These objects can be found in archaeological sites throughout the western coast and states just further inland, like Nevada and Utah. Other kinds of work camp sites Chinese workers occupied were farming and agriculture, logging and mining. The framework of the project utilizes the theories of subculture group change, interactions between different ethnic groups and the expression of identity and other aspects through material culture remains, specifically the Chinese immigrant minority group, and their identity in the archaeological record. A surface survey and collection, along with several mostly sterile sample test pits, were the methods ultimately chosen for the Cajon Pass Work Camp site. Interpretations of the site and its artifacts, as well as suggestions for future studies, are presented along side tables and figures detailing the collection’s contents
