 Abstract

Ugly looking scars have been always a major concern for the mankind. Various techniques for its management are presently available. Many ultra modern techniques such as laser, gel, ointment etc are prescribed by dermatologists now days. Naturopathy, acupressure, acupuncture therapists are also using various methods to minimize scar. This study was conducted to understand the present trend in this field and to explore the new possibilities in ayurveda to handle this issue in a more healthy and natural way.

 Abstract

Remote sensing was joined with GIS environment for land and water assets evaluation. A geographical database was stored as attributes. Demonstrating Modeling are intense apparatuses for basic leadership in the study zone. The present investigation goes for setting up suggestions for surface water development as far as best sites choice and surface overflow. GIS and multi-criteria examination were connected to find a rain fall, rain water stream area in consider territory of Darjeeling, to get the advantage for agricultural development. Simply, rainwater harvesting is the act of gathering and putting away rainwater for later utilize. Rain water harvesting (RWH) frameworks go from the extremely basic a rain barrel put under the downspout of a building's drains to more mind boggling alternatives that connect to a building's pipes framework. The training is prominent over an extensive variety of socioeconomics, from rustic plant specialists to individuals living in urban focuses. Based GIS report and land overview can execute three unique kinds of Geography. That is Farm lake development with shade balls, Storage tank and Surface spill over harvesting. This study quickly examined about finding most noteworthy rainfall territory through GIS and starting environmental arranged way to deal with construct water tank utilizing by light weight and cost cutting froth concrete tanks. Darjeeling was chosen as catchment zone to this examination and topography conditions, climates, rain fall, land study are gathered from Indian Meteorological Department.

 Abstract

Nowadays the electronic techniques are advanced, and smart phones are equipped with powerful processors and large memories. A smart campus can be seen as a smaller version of smart city. As it is observed that providing the data by faculties to students is difficult and also students to acquire the important notices and required files, a system is designed to view important information by the students using an application by Wi-Fi connectivity. This will help in better sharing and spread of important message or information among the campus students. The students will get required data and important message through the application and will be able to download the required files and other information. Also using the application light and fan can be controlled.

 Abstract

Recent wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are becoming increasingly complex with the growing network scale and the dynamic nature of wireless communications. Many measurement and diagnostic approaches depend on per-packet routing paths for accurate and fine-grained analysis of the complex network behaviors. The basic idea of iPath is to exploit high path similarity to iteratively infer long paths from short ones. A novel path inference approach to reconstructing the routing path for each received packet. IPath exploits the path similarity and uses the iterative boosting algorithm to reconstruct the routing path effectively.

 Abstract

Solar Photo voltaic industry is tipped to be one of the front runners in the renewable industry. Typically, PV Module manufacturers provide a linear or step warranty of 80% of original power over 20 Years. This power loss is during the field exposure is primarily attributed to the development of performance affecting defects in the PV modules. Quality inspection of PV-modules includes measurement of peak-power Pmax and internal series resistance Rs. Peak Power is defined as maximum power under standard test conditions (STC). As the peak-power can decrease due to degradation effects, a continuous quality inspection has to be realized on-site under natural ambient conditions.

 Abstract

This is a comparative assessment of the difficulties experienced in environmental reporting by environmental journalists in Nigeria and India. The study relied mainly on structured online interviews of twenty working journalists from each country. A survey of 500 respondents from each country was also used in the study to gauge public opinion about environmental reporting in newspapers. The study observed a similar trend in the challenges faced by environmental journalists in both countries. The results showed that environmental journalists in both countries work under some constraints from government agencies and officials, organisations and powerful individuals. Within newspapers organisations, there are internal censorship from newspaper owners and editors. Retraining of environmental journalists to equip them with the science and technicalities of environmental reporting was suggested a way to improve environmental reporting by newspapers.

 Abstract

The agricultural sector faces systematic annual losses due to pests and diseases. The damage caused by insect pests is one of the primary factors leading to the reduction in the production of crops.Pest insects can have adverse and damaging impacts on agricultural production,market access, the natural environment, and our lifestyle.The main objective of the research is to detect and eradicate the white grubs in agricultural crop field.An embedded system is a special-purpose computer system designed to perform a dedicated function.The research focuses on a system that automatically detects the white grubs (white worm) in a crop soil specifically for Allium cepa (onion)with help of thermocouple.

 Abstract

There are many factors involved in the longitudinal deformation of a bridge, but the major factors to be considered are thermal induced movements, creep and shrinkage. Therefore, the effect of thermal stresses, creep, shrinkage and the resulting movements should be considered in the design process. However, due to the lack of rational design criteria, the design engineer cannot be certain that a structure is both safe and economical. Consequently, many uneconomical structures result due to either higher initial costs of over-design or the higher maintenance costs of under-design. There is a long term deflection in continuous Pre-stressed Concrete Girders (PSC) due to creep, shrinkage and daily atmospheric temperature variation, inhibiting lower load bearing capacity. It causes decrease in service life of bridge and in the long run requires strengthening with external pre-stressing to secure its original load bearing capacity. The uniform temperature change only causes change in axial length of the member while the temperature gradient causes bending deformations. In the present investigation, the effect of temperature, creep and shrinkage is analysed for continuousPSCgirderbridges of varying spans. Stresses and deformations developed in the structure due to creep shrinkage and temperature are analysed using MIDAS Civil analysis software. The bridge structures are analysed for maximum and minimum stresses, longitudinal displacement, vertical displacement and bending moments on various spans. From the above analysis, it is observed that there is a long term deformation due to time dependent factors and also considerable amount of stresses are developed in the structure. The longitudinal deformation increases with increase in number of spans for which appropriate expansion joints are required to be provided, while the vertical deflection, moments and stresses developed gradually stabilize with the increase in number of spans beyond five spans. It is also noticed that two spans continuity is the worst scenario where flexural moments developed due to various loads are comparatively higher than other span continuity.
