 Abstract

Joseph Conrad's Heart of Darkness, published in 1902 is widely regarded as a prominent European literary masterpiece from the late 19th Century. It is an intricate work that can be analysed through several literary perspectives. Postcolonial theory is one important theory that can be used to examine it. The paper focuses on the portrayal and criticism of European colonialism in Africa as depicted in Heart of Darkness, with particular emphasis on two characters; Marlowe and Kurtz. Marlow is the novel's narrator, while Kurtz is the main colonial agent in the novel. The novel portrays the stark truths of imperialism, observing the exploitation, cruelty, and dehumanization of indigenous African people by European colonizers. Conrad criticizes the inhumane treatment of the indigenous people of Africa and the practice of imperialism, mainly through the character of Kurtz in the novel. The novel effectively depicts the sombre and ruinous aspects of European colonialism in Africa.

Empowerment index is an index which measures how much a person is empowered. In this paper an attempt has been made to form an empowerment index using different dimension of empowerment of women. After defining the empowerment index a comparison is done among the women who are actively participating Self Help Group (SHG Women) and the women who are not a member of SHG (Non-SHG Women). Primary data are collected by surveying different blocks of Paschim Bardhaman District of West Bengal. This study finds that not only SHG women are more empowered than Non-SHG women in each surveyed block but also the least empowered women (Non-SHG) Block becomes the highest empowered women Block when we consider only women who are member of any SHG.

 Abstract

Innate immune components found in fish epidermal mucus are released by globlet cells, which serve as a barrier between the fish and its local habitat and offer the first line of defense against many harmful bacteria. Microbe trapping and sloughing is one of mucus' primary roles. Innate immunity is provided by a variety of substances found in mucus, including lysozymes, lectins, proteases, and antimicrobial peptides (AMPs). A range of pathogens were susceptible to the antibacterial action of the AMPs released by epidermal mucus cells. Furthermore, mucosal lysozyme was observed to have strong bacteriolytic activity, whereas several proteases discovered in fish skin mucus have the ability to eliminate infections by either cleaving their protein or by inducing an immune response. Lectins are another type of mucosal agglutinin that have a variety of functions in innate immunity, including complement activation and opsonization. Fish's epidermal mucus, which is shown to be relatively temperature independent, offers an inbuilt, quick-acting, non-specific defense. The current review's objective is to give a thorough understanding of the many elements of epidermal mucus, such as AMPs, proteases, and lysozymes, as well as how they work against infections.

 Abstract

Analyzing fluid dynamics around a blunt nose with various spikes and angles of attack involves understanding how the shape and orientation of the nose affect airflow and aerodynamic forces such as lift and drag. Begin by defining the geometry of the blunt nose and the various spikes that will be attached to it. This includes specifying dimensions, shapes, and positions of the spikes relative to the blunt nose. Use a CFD software package such as ANSYS Fluent, COMSOL Multiphysics, or OpenFOAM to simulate the flow around the blunt nose with different spike configurations. Compare the performance of different spike configurations and angles of attack based on metrics such as lift, drag, and aerodynamic efficiency. Identify which configurations produce the desired aerodynamic characteristics for the given application. Based on the simulation results, optimize the design of the blunt nose and spikes to improve aerodynamic performance, minimize drag, or achieve other design objectives. The provided information suggests that blunting the front surface of an aerospace vehicle serves as a form of thermal protection. However, despite this blunting, the nose still experiences intense thermal action, necessitating even greater thermal protection than the peripheral parts of the vehicle. To address the issue of wave drag, which typically occurs due to the blunt nose shape, modifications to the flow field in front of the vehicle are necessary. One technique to achieve this modification is by employing a retractable nose spike. By deploying a retractable spike, the flow field can be altered, potentially reducing wave drag and improving aerodynamic performance

 Abstract

This review study is divided into two sections, the first of which focuses on the existing topologies used in wireless sensor networks and the second on the design of the node. As we all know, wireless sensor network technology is application-oriented, hence the network's topology and architecture will always alter from application to application, making it dynamic in nature. The creation and deployment of nodes always differ from old technologies; while traditional technology was utilized originally, its excessive use altered the situation. These topologies are now employed with hybrid methodologies, which include additional features and advantages, as is the case with node architecture. Many WSN applications require networking alternatives to improve cost reduction, efficiency, and security, so in this review report, we will discuss all of the topologies used and hybridized changes that have been made in the past and can be made in the future to the architecture of the WSN node.
