  • Abstract:

    Blood flow is a study of measuring of the blood pressure and finding the flow through the blood vessel. In human body the arterioles have the greatest collective influence on both local blood flow and on the over all blood pressure. They are primary "adjustable nozzles" in the blood circulation system in human body, across which the greatest pressure drop occurs. In this paper a mathematical modeling of heat transfer through arterioles during blood flow is presented which is derived from the Navier-Stock equations and some assumptions. A system of non linear differential equations for blood flow and heat transfer through cross sectional area of the arterioles was obtained. MATLAB programming techniques were adopted to solve the equations. The results obtained are very sensitive to the values of the initial conditions and this helps to explain the condition of hypertension.

  • Abstract:

    Symptoms caused by quite different and unrelated stresses can look very much the same. It would seem that the fundamental physiological mechanisms imposed on plants are sufficiently similar to cause rather similar responses. Thus we see that various abiotic and sometimes biotic, pathogens can cause injury that mimics air pollution injury. This is one reason why the diagnostician must always be careful to consider all the facets of diagnosis, and carefully examine all the possible causes of a disorders (Lacasse and Treshow, 1976........

  • Abstract:

    During the reduction process, the increase in volume of the iron ore pellets leads to a decrease in the mechanical resistance or disintegration of the pellets which lead to the unfeasibility of the process. The present work has the objective of evaluating the thermal expansion behavior of the direct reduction pellets using dilatometry. For this, the dilatometric expansion curve and the coefficient of thermal expansion of the pellets were determined through a horizontal pushrod dilatometer under an argon atmosphere. The dilatometric results showed that the expansion of the pellet increased and the degree of expansion decreased as the temperature increased, and changes in the expansion curve demonstrated the occurrence of microstructural......

  • Abstract:

    Concrete is an extraordinary and key structural material in the human history. Increase in construction activities has lead to an increase in demand for various raw materials in concrete. This lead to researchers to make use of alternate materials as ingredients of concrete those are in no way inferior to the conventional materials. By partially replacing the normal aggregate with Bethamcherla stone aggregates in different proportions, the strength of concrete can be determined. Based on the proportion of ingredients used in concrete, its properties can also be changed. In most of the building works normal conventional concrete is used. The present experimental work focused on effective use of bethamcherla waste materials in place of coarse aggregate in concrete mix since these materials are naturally and abundantly available in Kurnool district. Concrete grade of M20 is exercised with various replacement levels of coarse aggregate with 20mm bethamcherla stone aggregates like 0%, 25%, 50%, 75%, 100% to study the compressive strength and acid resistance of cubes with addition of steel fibers.

  • Abstract:

    A revolution in science of electronics and communication has emerged in the last few decades, with the potential to create a paradigm shift in thinking about simulation theories . The paper throws some light on the utility and simulation of hairpin monopole antenna . The main focus is to get the exact simulation and results that we obtain from analyzing a simple monopole antenna. Analysis of number of antenna elements and comparision of the practical characteristics of the antenna with the ideal one have been done. A traditional dipole antenna is used to begin things and from there research is carried forward with the analysis of antenna using the same software over it's specified range of frequency. The name hairpin is so called because the antenna is in the form of hairpin which is a slender U-shaped piece of wire, shell, etc. Modern car radio, mobile communications, personal wireless devices, and medical instruments use the application of hairpin monopole antenna for better performance and efficiency.

  • Abstract:

    Digital watermarking technique is becoming popular for copyright information. The watermark embedded in the digital video may be incorrectly detected and extracted due to lack of appropriate algorithm, so the main concern is to implement the algorithm which is more resistant to different types of attacks. In this paper, a Hybrid video watermark technique has been introduced where DCT and 3rd level of DWT, for adding more security, is used. PSNR, MSE and NC values of Hybrid technique are analyzed on the basis of different noises and attacks. Hybrid technique is robust against high stream, low stream, frame drop, frame trim attacks

  • Abstract:

    In the process of image coding, external noises impact a lot in processing efficiency. In the application of medical image processing, this effect is more, important due to its finer content details. It is required to minimize the noise effect with preserving the image content information, without losing the image generality. Towards the objective of image denoising, in this work, a dynamic block coding approach for noise minimization in medical image processing is presented. The second observing factor in region segmentation is the marking of small region patterns which are derived due to misclassification of actual and detected regions. the complexity of detection logic, due to recurrent coding is an additional factor to observe. In this paper, a new recurrent coding approach of region segmentation is proposed, overcoming the issue of region marking, discontinuity issue and small region miss-classification. The suggested approach is a simpler and robust to region detection, test over different MRI samples.

  • Abstract:

    The major parameters of FDM are Infill Density, Layer thickness, Shell thickness, Print speed which considered for mechanical testing and dimensional accuracy of the printed specimens. Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) technology allows users to control the density of models through parameter which is termed air gap or infill. Test specimens were used with infill between 20 and 80%. Therefore, this paper discusses experimental analysis of the influence of infill density on the compressive strength in FDM specimens made of polylactic acid (PLA).The test results indicate that the compressive strength samples of the 3D-printed PLA samples increased with increasing of infill density lower infill values significantly increase the building speed, and the time of printing the sample would be increased also with increasing of infill density.

  • Abstract:

    Cloud computing has became a buzzword owing to availability and on-demand services that have changed the way working of all business organizations resulting in exponentially growth of cloud based applications. IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service) has played a key role in making the resources Like CPU, RAM, bandwidth, hard-disk; VMs etc. available on demand. Customers have to pay only for the resource they have actually used. In this paper a dynamic resource negotiation strategy by broker is introduced where the broker plays negotiators role and helps customers and vendors to dynamically negotiate on the pricing attribute of deal. When the customer needs resource he quotes his price constraints to broker who searches for best resource from the available vendors that satisfy his price attribute. A new attribute i.e. deviation from the price, customer gives to vendor has been introduced in this paper. If the deviation matches, then broker allocates the resource to particular customer. This helps customers and vendors in finding timely resource allocation while broker is able to increase his customer base..

  • Abstract:

    Sandwich panels with many outstanding features have widely used in many fields especially in engineering. To use them effectively, we need to know the mechanical behaviors of these sandwich panels. This paper presents a homogenization method to determine the mechanical behaviors of folded core sandwich panels in in-plane shear loading. This method allows us to build an equivalent model (2D) for original model (3D) which helps to significantly reduce the computational time as well as time to build the geometry of model. A very good agreement is obtained between the 3D shell simulations and our homogenization model for in-plane shear problem verifying the accuracy and efficiency of our model. We can also use, of course, this method to build equivalent models for any type of folded core as well as many types of sandwich panels..

  • Abstract:

    Linearized bearing and squeeze film damper models have limits when the rotor undergoes severe unbalance conditions or large shaft vibrations. This paper presents a nonlinear modeling approach for a complex rotor-bearing system, consisting of both tilting-pad bearings with squeeze film dampers as well as an assembly method for linear flexible rotors to simulate behavior of shaft-bearing system under severe unbalance conditions. By solving Reynolds equations derived from a tilting-pad bearing model and a finite length squeeze film damper model, the pressure profile is calculated using an approximate finite element method. The bearing/damper forces are then calculated based upon the shaft instantaneous position and velocity, and updated at each time step. The transient response of system, including coupled motions of the shaft, the bearing pads/pivots, and the dampers, is solved using a 4th Runge-Kutta integration method. The nonlinear transient behavior of a flexible eight-stage compressor...........

  • Abstract:

    In Nigeria, only few studies have characterized timber species for structural design applications. In this study, determination of the physical and mechanical properties of timber species in Akwa Ibom state in southern Nigeria was carried out using methods defined in BS EN 1193:1998, BS EN 384:2016, BS EN 408:2010 and BS 373:1957, while strength classification of the timber species was in accordance with BS EN 338:2016. Twenty-five (25) samples each of five common timber species in Akwa Ibom namely: IyipOkoyo (Stauditiastipitata), Owen (Mitragyna spp.), Mkpenek (Uapacaguineensis), Atarabang (Xylopia spp.) and Ata (XanthoxylonSenegalensis) were selected for the study. Results of physical properties indicated that the timber species have low susceptibility to fungal degradation and high durability but prone to dimensional change. Of the five timber species, Atarabang (Xylopia spp.) was the only softwood specie, suggesting that Akwa Ibom is dominated by hardwood species. Mechanical properties obtained were..........

  • Abstract:

    Population growth, rising standard of living, urbanization, diversification of consumption materials cause increasing of waste materials and energy consumption. In the world, thousands of wastes occur every day, and most of these wastes come from solid wastes such as household, industry, agriculture, municipal wastes, etc. This increase in solid wastes is one of the most important environmental problems in the world. Conversion of these wastes into energy during the disposal process is significant importance in terms of prevention of environmental pollution, public health, and renewable, sustainable energy. Landfilling which is the simplest waste treatment method currently appears as the less preferable method for following reasons: first, the lack of land available, especially in the most populated regions. Second, landfilling causes the production of powerful hazardous gases and chemicals that can contaminate the soil and water, posing a risk to the public health and the environment. Also, other thermal methods.......

  • Abstract:

    Model studies on the purification of oil-polluted coastal soil by bacterial and bacterial-yeast associations were carried out. It is established that when they are introduced, changes in the composition of the microbiocenosis occur. In this case, the number of heterotrophic bacteria and hydrocarbon-oxidizing microorganisms is significantly increased. During the entire experiment, the bacterial-yeast association showed the greatest activity. Under its impact, oil utilization amounted to 62.3-84.0%. In this case, the use of manure with ammonium nitrate was more effective than the introduction of urea. Experimental data showed that more intensive destruction of oil occurs with the introduction of preparations in an amount of 1-2 g per 300 g of contaminated soil..

      10.9790/9622-0710034657     logo
  • Abstract:

    A revolution in science of electronics and communication has emerged in the last few decades, with the potential to create a paradigm shift in thinking about adaptive filtering. This Project involves the study of the principles of Adaptive Noise Cancellation (ANC) and its Applications. Adaptive noise Cancellation is an alternative technique of estimating signals corrupted by additive noise or interference. Its advantage lies in that, with no apriori estimates of signal or noise, levels of noise rejection are attainable that would be difficult or impossible to achieve by other signal processing methods of removing noise. Adaptive noise cancellation is an approach used for noise reduction in speech signal. As received signal is continuously corrupted by noise where both received signal and noise signal both changes continuously, then this arise the need of adaptive filtering. This paper deals with cancellation of noise on speech signal using an adaptive algorithm called least mean square (LMS) algorithm.

  • Abstract:

    This paper describes the re-use of marble waste as filler material in wearing course of bituminous roads which is the replacement of stone dust. Stone dust is conventionally used as filler by NHA, Pakistan. Modified mixes containing Marble dust as filler were prepared and compared with conventional mixes containing stone dust as filler. Three varying Percentages of fillers namely Marble dust and Stone Dust (3.5%, 4.5% and 5.5% by weight of total aggregates) in both types of mixes were used along with three varying contents of bitumen (4%, 4.3% and 4.6%). Effect of both types of mixes was assessed in terms of Marshal stability and Indirect Tensile fatigue testing and results were discussed. Marshal mix design showed that modified mixes result higher stability as compared to conventional mixes. Increase in stability of modified mixes is due to the fact that Marble dust acts as a bitumen extender. Stone dust absorbs more asphalt content and.......

  • Abstract:

    The kinetics and oxidation of glutathione (reduced) (GSH) by vanadium(V) has been studied over the range 0.5 ≤ 102[GSH]T ≤ 2.0, 0.5 ≤ [H+] ≤ 3.0, I = 3.1 mol dm-3 and 298 ≤ T ≤ 313K in aqueous hydrochloric acid medium. The reaction showed first order dependence in [V(V)]T, first order with respect to [H+] and fractional order with respect to [GSH]T. The main product of the reaction is GSSG a dimer of GSH. In this reaction, one mole of vanadium(V) consumes one mole of GSH. Increase in hydrochloric acid concentration increases the rate. The activation parameters ΔH# (kJ mol-1) and ΔS# (JK-1 mol-1) for the electron transfer reaction were found to be -22.46 and -371.8. The negative values of activation parameters favor the formation of ordered transition state.

  • Abstract:

    This paper proposes a novel optimization method for digital images in the Wavelet Transform (DWT) domain. Digital image watermarking has demonstrated its proficiency in ensuring illegal confirmation of data. The visibility factor of the watermark is the huge parameter that helps in enhancing the perceptual transparency and robustness of watermarking system. The trade-off between the transparency and robustness is considered as an optimization problem and is explained by applying GWO Optimization technique. The Peak Signal to Noise Ratio (PSNR), Mean Square Error (MSE), and computational time are evaluated for an arrangement of images using the MATLAB R2014b software.

  • Abstract:

    Excessive fluoride concentrations have been reported in groundwaters of more than 20 developed and developing countries including India where 19 states are facing acute fluorosis problems. Various technologies are being used to remove fluoride from water but still the problem has not been rooted out. In this paper, a broad overview of the available technologies for fluoride removal and advantages and limitations of each one have been presented based on literature survey and the experiments conducted in the laboratory with several processes. It has been concluded that the selection of treatment process should be site specific as per local needs and prevailing conditions as each technology has some limitations and no one process can serve the purpose in diverse conditions.

    Organobismuth and organobismuth halides have been synthesized by electrolyzing the solutions of alkyl/aryl halides (bromoethane, 1-bromopropane, 1-chlorobutane and chlorobenzene ) in acetonitrile at sacrificial bismuth anode. These organobismuth halides do not form coordination compounds when refluxed with ligands such as 1,10-phenanthroline and 2,2'-bipyridyl. However, coordination compounds of these organobismuth compounds have been synthesized by electrolyzing the solution of the above substrate in the presence of ligands in acetonitrile at sacrificial bismuth anode. All these products have been characterized by infrared spectral data, elemental analysis and various physical properties. Current efficiencies of all these systems are quite high.

  • Abstract:

    The introduction of vehicle number plates is one of the important techniques as part of an intelligent transportation system that can be used to identify a vehicle simply by understanding the license plate. The introduction of license plate in Indonesia is usually used in the parking system which is still done manually, namely by recording the number plate character by the parking attendant. The process of character segmentation of vehicle license plate number will be done first before introduction process. The accuracy of character recognition is influenced by the result of the segmentation process. This research performs character segmentation process of vehicle license plate by using method of connected component analysis which is applied as algorithm; which is used to detect the corresponding blob region in a binary image. The data used 52 license plates of vehicles with the shape and type of vehicle number plates in Indonesia. The accuracy of the segmentation process is quite good that is equal to 84.6%.

  • Abstract:

    We report co-deposited Ag-Cu2O films using DC Magnetron Sputtering method on glass substrates. Both Ag content and temperature were varied during deposition. UV-VIS-NIR, Hall measurements were used to characterize the optical and electrical properties. The results reveal that the deposited Ag-Cu2O films show a decreasing optical transmittance as the content of Ag increases. All the samples that are deposited at room temperature, Ag2O phase may exist. It is also observed that the resistivity was decreased due to Ag phase formation. The photo-induced conductivity measurement finds highest increase in conductivity by the nature of light irradiation. The co-existence of Ag2O and Cu2O was observed in the temperature studies. XRD studies reveal that Ag2O (002) peaks observed at low temperature and diminished at high temperatures. This study also explains the dissolving of Ag phases into the Cu2O with the temperature. The reverse effect of formation of Ag phases on Cu2O was discussed by......

    India is presently generating construction and demolition (C & D) waste around 23.75 million tons annually and these figures are likely to double fold in the next 7 years. C & D waste and specifically concrete has been seen as a resource in developed countries. Works on recycling have emphasized that if old concrete has to be used in second generation concrete, the product should adhere to the required compressive strength. The project done on recycled aggregate from demolished concrete. Our aim is to investigate the characteristics of recycled aggregate concrete, with respect to various parameters. After analysis of results of various tests done on recycled aggregate and natural aggregate it found that the recycled aggregate shows different result values, which implies that RA and NA are very different regarding various properties. But the Control mix showed better results with recycled aggregate. Results shows that compressive strength of recycled aggregate concrete depends upon grade of concrete which demolished to obtain recycled aggregate and the age of demolished concrete..

    Wireless sensor networks are becoming significantly vital to many applications, and they were initially used by the military for surveillance purposes. One of the biggest concerns of WSNs is that they are very defenceless to security threats. Due to the fact that these networks are susceptible to hackers; it is possible for one to enter and render a network. For example, such networks may be hacked into in the military, using the system to attack friendly forces. Leap protocol( Lightweight Extensible Authentication Protocol) offers many security benefits to WSNs. However, with much research it became apparent that LEAP only employs one base station and always assumes that it is trustworthy. It does not consist of defence against hacked or compromised base stations. In this paper, intensive research was undertaken on LEAP protocols.......

  • Abstract:

    Any electrical power system consists of wide range of electrical, electronic and power electronic equipments in commercial and industrial applications. The quality of the power is affected by many factors like harmonic contamination, due to the increment of non-linear loads, sag and swell due to the switching of the loads. Since most of the electronic equipment is nonlinear in nature these will induce harmonics in the system, which affect the sensitive loads to be fed from the system. These problems are partially solved with the help of LC passive filters. However, this kind of filter cannot solve random variation in the load current wave form and voltage wave form. Active filters can resolve this problem. However, the cost of active filters is high, difficult to implement in large scale.
    Key words: UPQC, Power quality, Series and Shunt Active filters, Sag and Swell harmonics.

    Agricultural produce has to increase to fulfill the necessity of the farmer and population demand due to this reason pesticide and fertilizers cane be used to increase the crop yield and agricultural produce. The excessive use of chemicals to control pest incidence, though increased yield levels within a short span, it has been the major contributor to environmental degradation as measured in terms of adverse effects on human health, soil and water quality, local biodiversity and ecological balance. Anyone who uses pesticides or is present when pesticides are sprayed is at risk for dangerous exposure. Present research focused and suggested. They are airborne thus they are found long distances from the site application. Exposure of wildlife over an extended period of time to pesticide levels not immediately lethal may result in chronic poisoning.

  • Abstract:

    Product development teams employ much method's and tool's as they design, test, and manufacturing a new (or improve) product. It is important that the product development team understand how their design and decisions affect manufacture system performances. Having this feedback early in the design processes avoids rework loop's needed to solve problems of manufacturing capacity or cycle time. The team can incorporate this information and associated costs into a design decision problem aimed at choosing the best possible product design. It is clear that the product design, which requires a specific set of manufacturing operations, has a huge impact on the manufacturing cycle time. Reducing manufacturing cycle time has many benefits, including but not limited to lower inventory, reduced costs, improved product quality, faster response to customer orders, increased flexibility and a reduced time-to-market. Design for Production (DFP) refers to methods that evaluate a product design by comparing its manufacturing requirements.........

  • Abstract:

    Congo red is an organic compound. It is an azo dye. Congo red is a water-soluble compound yielding a red colloidal solution. It is a major water pollutant of the textile industry and has its adverse affects on the aquatic life due to its carcinogenic properties. This dye is very difficult to degrade and has a harmful affect on the human beings. Being an azo dye it can remain in the water bodies for a longer period of time. Hence the removal of this dye is necessary. For the removal of this dye the waste of timber (mixture of bark leaves wood of various plants and trees) is taken up. It helps in the management of the solid waste material as the timber waste is used up for the removal of this dye from water. The timber waste which is easily available and has also been found to be effective in the removal of the Congo red dye.....

  • Abstract:

    A modified Differential Evolution (DE) is used in optimization of a gas transmission network. The goal is to reduce the annual operating and maintenance costs by optimizing many network parameters such as the number of compressors, lengths and diameters of the pipeline segments, flow rate in each pipeline segment, discharge and suction pressures at each compressor. The design must satisfy several constraints,. The values of some parameters are dependent on other parameters, which increases the complexity of the network, using the standard DE technique. Hence, A modification strategy is needed to improve the searching for the global optimum values. The modified DE has been successfully applied to this complex and non-linear problem and needed a very shorter computational time to converge to the optimal solution..........
