 Abstract

This paper investigates the effects of Long Short-Term Memory networks in predictive maintenance of manufacturing systems. The proposed framework improves on prediction from failure and anomalous detection because LSTMs have the ability to deal with time series data. These IoT qualified sensors equipped with real time machine health monitoring and the supportof AI driven analytics along with historical patterns to forecast potential breakdowns form the bedrock for the work. LSTM predictive maintenance strategies, integrated with the maintenance strategies, result in minimum sudden downtime, maximum asset reliability and maximum efficiency of industrial operation. This study proposes deep learning for proactive maintenance in order to redefine the traditional maintenance methods and make the smart manufacturing practices.

 Abstract

This article explores the multifaceted role of Japan in supporting India's infrastructure transformation, particularly in high-speed rail and urban development. With India facing the challenge of rapid urbanization and an estimated infrastructure investment need of $840 billion over the next 15 years, Japan has emerged as a critical development partner. The study examines bilateral frameworks such as the Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement (CEPA) and Japan's Official Development Assistance (ODA), emphasizing Japan's contribution through concessional loans, advanced technology, and strategic cooperation. Projects like the Mumbai-Ahmedabad High-Speed Rail and Delhi-Mumbai Industrial Corridor illustrate Japan's technological and financial involvement. The article also analyzes urban initiatives, smart city collaborations, and energy partnerships, along with the geopolitical implications in the Indo-Pacific context. It further discusses implementation challenges and offers policy recommendations to enhance efficiency and future cooperation. Ultimately, this study demonstrates how the India-Japan partnership serves as a model for sustainable, strategic, and tech-driven infrastructure development in the Global South.

 Abstract

In recent years, online shopping has experienced rapid growth across India, extending beyond metropolitan cities into semi-urban and rural regions. Mahoba, a small town in the Bundelkhand region of Uttar Pradesh, presents a unique setting to examine how digital transformation is influencing consumer purchasing behaviour. This study explores the changing dynamics of consumer behaviour towards online shopping in Mahoba, focusing on factors such as convenience, product availability, digital literacy, trust, and payment preferences. The research adopts a mixed-method approach, combining quantitative surveys and qualitative interviews to gain comprehensive insights into consumer attitudes and preferences. Key objectives include identifying the most purchased product categories, the frequency of online shopping, perceived benefits and challenges, and the role of demographic variables such as age, income, and education. Findings indicate that younger consumers (18-35 years) are the most active online shoppers, driven by smart phone usage, ease of access, and attractive pricing. However, issues such as unreliable internet connectivity, delivery delays, and skepticism about product quality continue to hinder widespread adoption among older and rural consumers. Cash on delivery remains the preferred payment method, though digital payments are gradually gaining traction. This study highlights the growing potential of e-commerce in tier-3 towns like Mahoba and provides valuable insights for online retailers, policymakers, and local businesses aiming to expand their reach in semi-urban markets. Recommendations are made to enhance digital infrastructure, promote digital literacy, and build consumer trust to foster a more inclusive online shopping ecosystem.

 Abstract

A recent study aimed to develop a sustained-release floating tablet of Vonoprazan Fumarate using a direct compression method to simplify processing. The research began by screening various rate-controlling polymers, with Carbopol 934 and Chitosan evaluated for their effectiveness in modulating the drug release rate. Carbopol 934 was identified as the most effective and selected for further formulation development. Preformulation studies confirmed the compatibility of Vonoprazan Fumarate with the chosen excipients. Fifteen formulations (F1-F15) were developed and subjected to comprehensive physical and chemical evaluations. Formulation F6 demonstrated the most promising results in initial assessments. To optimize the formulation, a factorial design approach was employed, varying the concentrations of Carbopol 934 and a floating agent as independent variables. This design aimed to assess their effects on drug release at the 1-hour mark and on floating lag time. Evaluations of the factorial batches (V1-V9) indicated that all parameters, including weight variation, friability, hardness, and thickness, remained within acceptable limits, with drug content consistently ranging from 97% to 99%. The study found that increasing the concentration of Carbopol 934 resulted in a decrease in drug release, highlighting its significant role in controlling release rates. Conversely, the floating agent concentration primarily influenced the floating time of the tablet. The optimized formulation, designated as V5, exhibited stable performance during a one-month stability study. It demonstrated controlled drug release, effective floating properties, and maintained stability over time. Therefore, formulation V5 is considered a promising candidate for further clinical evaluation.

 Abstract

As pyrrole has significant medicinal properties analogues of pyrrole (I-VI) were selected and modelled by SwissADME database and physicochemical, pharmacokinetics, drug-likeness and medicinal properties were analysed. The results show that all studied molecules obey Lipinski rule and possess high gastrointestinal (GI) absorption with blood brain barrier (BBB) permeation. I-VI exhibit good bioavailability score, positive leadlikeness and progressive synthetic accessibility.

 Abstract

Despite ongoing reforms, many schools in the Philippine basic education system continue to struggle with delivering consistent and high-quality services due to gaps in leadership effectiveness and teacher empowerment. This study investigates the mediating role of empowerment in the relationship between transformational leadership and service quality among school principals. Using a non-experimental, descriptive-correlational design with path analysis, data were collected from 160 public elementary school teachers in Alabel, Sarangani Province. Results revealed that transformational leadership, empowerment, and service quality were all perceived at high to very high levels. Strong and significant correlations were observed among the variables, with empowerment shown to mediate the effect of transformational leadership on service quality partially. These findings are anchored in Conger and Kanungo's Psychological Empowerment Theory, which explains how leaders can foster meaningful work engagement by enhancing employees' intrinsic motivation. The study highlights the need for leadership development programs that integrate empowerment strategies to strengthen institutional service delivery, supporting the realization of Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) 4 and 16 by promoting inclusive, quality education and effective school governance.
