A Study on Radiant Heat Application to the Curing Process for Improvement of Free-form Concrete Panel Productivity

Abstract

As free-form panel production takes a long time, it extends the construction period and increases construction expenses. This study suggests a method to apply radiant heat to concrete for the purpose of shortening the curing and removal process in free-form panel production. The optimal temperature and time for removal are determined based on the results of constant temperature/humidity curing experiments and quartz tube heater curing experiments. Through an experiment in various time settings, the general time of FCP (Free-form Concrete Panel) production is measured to examine whether the productivity is enhanced. It is expected that findings of this study contribute to shortening the construction period and reducing construction expenses as well as future studies on the FCP manufacturing equipment.

A Probabilistic Adaptive Cerebral Cortex Segmentation Algorithm for Magnetic Resonance Human Head Scan Images

“…The ideal gamma value to alter an image's overall intensity is determined using this gamma correction method. The disparity-improved images are then turned to binary images by the image down-sampling utilising square wave interpretation (SWI) [17]. As a consequence, the input brain lobes is preprocessed for quality enrichment and pattern classification at each step of this proposed technique.…”

“…The identified ROI is transformed to binary code for CF using the technique of sample binarization employing a SWI described in recent work [17], because binary images are simpler to read than image pixels. After the pixels in the frame have been transformed to binary code, the dark/dark grey pixels in the SE are changed to black pixels, and these black pixels in the ROI are identified as CP.…”
