 Abstract

The Buddhist logician Dign?ga known as the father of the medieval Indian logic. He introduced some new concepts on the discussion of logic or inference. Here Pak??bh?sa or the fallacy of thesis, a notable concept of Dign?ga's philosophy, has been discussed after following his great work 'Ny?yaprave?a'.

 Abstract

Reverse migration, a phenomenon characterised by the return of individuals to their places of origin, has been a growing trend in many parts of the world. Tehri District in Uttarakhand, India, is witnessing an upsurge in reverse migration, which has significant implications for its socio-cultural fabric. This research paper explores the factors contributing to reverse migration in Tehri District and its impact on the local socio-cultural discourse. The study aims to comprehensively understand this dynamic social phenomenon and its potential implications for the region by employing advanced qualitative and quantitative methodologies.

 Abstract

Applications of creativity and innovative ideas have been taking place in the academic libraries for many years. But, over a period of years, technological changes have influenced the library users at a much faster rate than the academic libraries. This is causing a gap between the libraries and their users. To cope up with this, academic libraries need to strategically tackle the situation. The present study focusses on the role of ambient environment in the implementation of creativity and innovations in academic libraries.

Abstract: Channel's height-width ratio played a significant role on the HT-PEMFC's performance. In the current study, a rectangular parallel flow field design was used to analyze the three different ratios between the channel height-width to observe the various factors that includes velocity field vectors, pressure and water mass fraction in the anode and cathode compartments, membrane current density, the mass fraction of H2, N2 and O2, also polarization curve for HT-PEMFCs. In the first ratio 1:1 where the height and width of gas channel remains the same. By keeping the same channel's inlet-outlet area, the height in the second ratio (4:5) is smaller than the width, while the height in the third ratio (5:4) is larger. Using the COMSOL 6.0 Multiphysics software, we performed a numerical simulation modelling of the HT-PEMFC for this investigation. When channel height to width is kept at (1:1) shows good performance for polarization plot simulation results.

 Abstract

Skin diseases pose significant healthcare challenges worldwide, and timely and accurate diagnosis is crucial for effective treatment and management. Teledermatology, which involves the remote diagnosis and consultation of skin conditions using telecommunication technology, has emerged as a promising approach to address the shortage of dermatologists in underserved areas and improve access to dermatological care. In this paper, we propose a novel methodology for the classification of skin diseases in teledermatology using image processing techniques and Support Vector Machines (SVM) as the classification algorithm. The methodology involves data collection from authoritative medical sources, preprocessing to enhance image quality, feature extraction from dermatological images, and model training using SVM.

 Abstract

The key findings suggest that, government of India's expenditure has a significant impact on the growth and development of the country and it also highlights the strong relationship with economic growth and revenue generation in the short-run. The finding also sheds the light on the impact on the GDP and FDI and thus helps to understand the significance of the positive relationship with economic growth in both the short-run and long-run. The spending done by the government helps the poor people of India as it helps to enable the redistribution of income of the population and thus results in high consumption capacity of poor people. Therefore, government expenditure help to boost capacity consumption and other associated economic activity.

The concrete structures which are continuously exposed to moisture or salt water are prone to deteriorate quickly. The reinforcement present within the concrete members are the key elements for the durability of any structure. The structural members of a cooling tower are distressed due to continuous exposure of moisture and due to which concrete spalling, reinforcement corrosion occurred. To treat the distressed portions of the members shotcreting using readily available cementitious material is being used , the strengthening of columns were being done using micro concreting , the voids in the concrete members are treated using epoxy injection grouting, the localized spalled regions are treated using polymer modified repair mortar and after repairing the concrete members, the entire concrete surface is being treated using crack bridge water proofing coating and anti-carbonation coating to increase durability of the structure

 Abstract

Packaging in the form of single use plastics have degraded our planets' health which have created world-wide attention. Through awareness, now consumers are highly concerned for the environment and are demanding sustainable packaging options such as green packaging. The major goal of current study is to determine how demographic variables have an effect on consumers' environmental concern leading towards green packaging. A sample of 341 respondents were chosen from Delhi NCR and Haryana state. For data analysis, T test and ANOVA test are applied. Key findings suggest favourable differences between consumers' environmental concern and their demographics.

 Abstract

Virginia Woolf was the daughter of Sir Leslie Stephen, eminent editor of the Cornhill Magazine and of the Dictionary of National Biography. She was married to the writer Leonard Woolf and was a member of the Bloomsbury group and shared its ideas and beliefs. She shared the experimentalism of her age. Her realism was psychological realism. In her novel, she used the 'stream-of-consciousness technique to express the new consciousness. Another curious fact about Virginia Woolf was that she was wholly dedicated to writing. She had a singleness of purpose in mind. She was full of interest. One is surprised by the richness and complexity of her work. The English language was at her command. She had the imagination and sensitivity of a poet. She was a poet working in the medium of prose. She was highly sensitive, imaginative, dedicated, and witty as well. She was an intellectual lady but she was not confined to intellectualism. She was a social creature interested in society with an outlook both warm and shrewd. Her outlook was the outlook of the woman and can be best seen through her feminism.

 Abstract

The paper takes a descriptive approach towards a novel financial instrument - Exchange Traded Fund or ETF in the Indian market. In spite of its introduction in 2002, there has been very limited acceptance of this simple, low-cost and affordable financial instrument among the Indian retail investors. Previous literature survey has highlighted the usefulness of this product as the best first-time investment option for new retail investors. This is even better than index funds because of low cost, real-time pricing and easy liquidity. The paper further examines the difference of this product from mutual funds and index funds. It also ponders over relevant issues involved in ETF investing like taxation, dividend, expenses, relevant risks and impact on financial market.
