Recycled Waste Tires Management in Constructions by Hamid, Salma Mohamed

“…The LCCA results show that the rubberized concrete (RC2), obtained by replacing 5% of aggregate and mixing it with seawater, is more cost-effective than RC1, with a cost savings of 30%.LCCA data were acquired by investigating thirteen concrete mixes (a control mix; 5%, 10%, and 20% rubber aggregate substitutions mixed with freshwater; and 0%, 5%, and 10% rubber aggregate substitutions mixed with seawater). …”

Friends as sensors yield early detection of the use of hashtags. by Manuel Garcia-Herranz (549453)

“…<p>a) Measures of lead times based on simulations of an infection spreading through a network with infection probability and recovery probability on a Barabasi-Albert random network with tail exponent show that a sensor group tends to provide earlier warning than a randomly-chosen control group in smaller samples, but decreasing sampling variation in larger sample sizes means that the statistical likelihood of providing early warning is maximized in moderately-sized samples. b) Observed results for hashtags on Twitter used by 1% of the individuals using a hashtag of each sample. c) Average lead time of first usage of each hashtag in the sensor group vs. the control group for all hashtags used by at least 10 users in each of 5 random samples of 50,000 random users.…”
