 Abstract

In the seismic design of buildings, reinforced concrete structural walls, or shear walls, act as major earthquake resisting members. The properties of these seismic shear walls dominate the response of the buildings, and therefore, it is important to evaluate the seismic response of the walls appropriately. In this present study, main focus is to determine the solution for shear wall location in multi-storey building An earthquake load is applied to a building of B+G+14 stories located in zone III. Parameters like Lateral displacement, story drift. The response of building when subjected to seismic excitation can be evaluated in a number of ways. Structural analysis methods can be mainly divided into four categories Equivalent Static Analysis, Linear dynamic analysis, Nonlinear Static Analysis, Nonlinear dynamic analysis. Equivalent Static Analysis method or linear static analysis, defines a series of forces acting on a building to represent the effect of earthquake ground motion. In this method, the design base shear is computed for the whole building, and it is then distributed along the height of the building. The response spectrum analysis determines the natural frequencies and mode shapes via eigen value analysis. It is used to estimate the peak response whereas the time history analysis provides a method for obtaining the exact response of a structure as a function of time.

 Abstract

Orally fast dissolving films have been recently introduced in the market as a convenient and easy-to-use alternative to conventional dosage forms such as orally disintegrating tablets. For paediatric and geriatric patients, fast-dissolving drug delivery systems are an alternative to tablets, capsules, and syrups that quickly disintegrate and dissolve in saliva and can be easily swallowed without the use of water. Mouth dissolving buccal films are particularly useful for paediatric, geriatric, and mentally ill patients who have trouble swallowing conventional tablets. This approach improves the therapeutic efficiency of pharmaceutical actives by avoiding hepatic first pass metabolism, delivering drug molecules in a controlled manner, increasing absorption, and improving patient compliance. This review gives more details about the components used in ODF, the manufacturing processes, the evaluation tests, and the marketed products.

 Abstract

Computing is the on-demand availability of computer system resources, especially data storage (cloud storage) and computing power, without direct active management by the user. By using cloud storage, users can access applications, services, software whenever they require over the internet. Users can put their data remotely to cloud storage and get the benefit of on-demand cloud services and application from the resources. The cloud must ensure data integrity and security of data of the user. The issue about cloud storage is integrity and privacy of data of the user. To maintain overkill this issue here, we are giving public auditing process for cloud storage that users can make use of a third-party auditor (TPA) to check the integrity of data. Not only verification of data integrity, the system also supports data dynamics. The work that has been done in this line lacks data dynamics and true public audit ability. The auditing task monitors data modifications, insertions and deletions. The implement system is capable of supporting public audit ability, data dynamics and Multiple TPA are used for the auditing process. We also extend our concept to ring signatures in which HARS scheme is used. Markel Hash Tree is used to improve block level authentication.

 Abstract

: Martensitic stainless steels are widely used in industrial applications due to their ability to be heat treated to different strength levels, added with good corrosion and oxidation resistance. By applying suitable heat treatment procedures, the properties of martensitic stainless steels are greatly modified. The scope of the work is to develop a heat treatment for SS431 martensitic stainless steel to get pearlite microstructure of the same, this is achieved by controlling rate of cooling of SS431 MSS done by using annealing heat treatment. The simulations carried out by changing various alloying elements and their influence on microstructure and hardness in JmatPro software are discussed below

 Abstract

The present research study was conducted for the adaptation and re-standardization of PSYCAT PRO, a multi-dimensional measure of human psychometrics that quantifies and infers the levels of patience, planning, emotional status, tactful behavior, attitude, social sense, attitude, obsessive behavior and intellectual levels of individuals. The adaptation of psychological instruments is a complex process that requires a high methodological standard. Test adaptation is a descriptive of the process that usually takes place in terms of revising, adapting and formatting. It is a practice which is judged as an important one for conducting and evaluating the adaptation of psychological and educational tests. Aspects regarding the factorial structure of the questionnaire evaluated through statistical procedures such as exploratory factor analysis were considered. The empirical evidence such as reliability, item analysis, and validity were also duly taken into consideration. The new version of PSYCAT is found to be equally and statistically valid for a wide range of population including professionals as well as students above the age of 18 years.

 Abstract

In India, Scheduled Tribes constitute 8.6 percent of total population numbering 104.28 million (Census of India, 2011). More than half of the Scheduled Tribe population is concentrated in the States of Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, Maharashtra, Odisha, Jharkhand and Gujarat. The Tribes generally reside in isolated places situated in remote areas of forests, islands, hills etc. These communities are not able to access basic facilities such as schools, hospitals and other amenities due to their remoteness. All these factors have led to the socio-economic backwardness of the community.

 Abstract

Deformation monitoring represents a crucial issue in order to avoid catastrophic failures due to infrastructure aging or earthquake damages. Differential SAR Interferometry (DInSAR) is a technique suitable for critical infrastructure monitoring, also for the availability of free data and tools that can be used by experts in SAR remote sensing and also by geologists and civil engineers, after having acquired the right confidence and experience in these data processing and tool use. In order to apply the DInSAR technique, in its basic and simple version, to critical infrastructure monitoring, it is very important to assess its performance. Nevertheless, validation results are not largely available in literature, because heterogeneous technical competencies are required to this aim and in situ measurements must be collected and made available. In this paper, we propose a highly reproducible DInSAR workflow that can be effectively used for deformation monitoring, by validating its results with in situ measurements.
