Ujjain (Madhya Pradesh): Mohit Kumar Prajapati, a lecturer in the department of civil engineering, School of Engineering Institute (SOET), Vikram University has jointly published an article about his patent in the Indian Patent Journal along with a university faculty.
Prajapati has succeeded in making earthquake-resistant structures using concrete reinforced with steel which makes it ductile so that it can withstand the tensile stress in a seismic zone.
Polymers like Nylon-66, PVC, Polyester, etc can also be used inside this concrete to further increase the ductility thus making the structure based on this material more earthquake resistant.
