 Abstract

As we all battle one of the most crucial times in our lives, with this Pandemic of Covid-19 that has spread like wildfire across the world, the pandemic is alone not the problem that the world is facing but Infodemic as coined by the World Health Organization, is much more scarier than it appears. According to popular statistics website, Statista, about 88% of the first-time voters in the 2019 elections said that fake news was a real problem. In a country like India, which is a home to the second largest population, spreading of fake news, especially among the illiterates is worrisome as they lack decision making or judgment of the news consumed or circulated before making a decisive choice to believe in them. More than 300 million people consume the internet in India and so are the active consumers of fake news that spreads among the social media channels which gain much attention, the more it is shared, the more likely they believe in that information. The Indian Government has taken measures to curb the fake news menace that had led to many killings and hate mongering in the past. PIB Fact Check, by the Press Information Bureau, has set up a fact check online portal where anybody can post a picture or a message, they have received via social media to check if it is indeed true. With its presence on Social Media platforms, PIB Fact check is making sure that the fake news is curbed right there before it is spread beyond the control and helps to encourage media literacy among the users. In this study, the researcher�s aims to analyse the fake news that were circulated during the COVID-19 Period i.e. from 22nd March 2020 to 2nd July 2020, with the help of content analysis in order to understand the types of fake news being spread and how effectively it was taken down by the PIB Fact Check.

 Abstract

The Agenda of 2030 of sustainable development is concerned the role played by India. It would be crucial at national as well as international level. The small farmers are cultivated most of the land in the nation. The ongoing trend of large scale land acquisition on the name of development i.e. infrastructure, industrial, or other possibly will redesign the national agrarian land. Such activities will extensively disturbing countryside populations and their livelihoods. Not only that but such contractions are constructing on the cost of damaging environment heavily, which also result into creation of imbalance to the environment, ultimately it would affected to the agriculture activities and agriculture production. Without rehabilitation and resettlement of those displaced people not only create hardship to them but also play a vital role in inflation of domestic production, at the same time it will create challenge for food safety of citizens. This study, through a literature review, analyses the negative impacts of Land acquisition with less compensation or acquisition without rehabilitation and resettlement. It is their hydrological aspects that reflects how they may have an effect on the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

 Abstract

In recent years, further studies have resulted in improvements in the design standard and the concrete quality has been greatly improved. For all of concrete-filled steel tubes are being employed in more constructions especially bridges, multi-story, and high-rise buildings. Hollow steel sections also can provide reduced weight and surface area when compared to equivalent open sections. Concrete filled steel tube (CFST) is a composite section integrated from a steel tube or a steel hollow section (SHS) with concrete filling inside the hollow part of the steel section. The steel section could be hot-rolled section or cold-formed section. However, the steel section type, grade, manufacturing, and concrete characteristic cylinder strength together control the overall section capacity. Concrete filled steel tubes combine the advantages of ductility associated with Steel structures, with the stiffness of a concrete structural system. After several pieces of research, it has been known that load transferred from the steel tube to the concrete by bond and shear connectors if the bond between the steel column and concrete inside is not made full use of, the flexural bearing capacity of concrete-filled steel tube column may not be fully acted. In this paper, an extensive parametric study is introduced to show the effect of concrete in the hollow steel section among different parameters. Moment rotation curves are plotted for various studied parameters as bolt grade, bolt diameter, pre-tension force, and endplate thickness. The main object of this research is to highlight the concrete filling effect on the connection between steel I-beam to steel hollow section column and studying the connection behavior in each parameter with and without concrete.

 Abstract

The Indian Ccnstitution in Part III provides equal political rights to all the citizens of India, including women. However, these rights are usurped and seized mainly by the male population of India. While women constitutes about 48 percent of the population (Census, 2011), their political representation in the 16th Lok Sabha consist only of 11.8 percent, which is the highest percentage in the history of independent India. According to a study conducted by Inter-Parliamentary Union, India ranks 149th in a list of 193 countries in terms of women�s representation in the lower House (Lok Sabha) of Parliament as of July 1, 2017. To increase the number of women representation in the Parliament, a bill has been introduced several times and is known as the 108th Amendment bill of the Constitution (2008). The bill aims to raise the voices of women in both Houses of Parliament (Lok Sabha & Rajya Sabha) as well as in the State assemblies by one-third. This paper seeks to draw the attention on this particular bill and its purpose to improve the representation of women in the political field. There are various reasons behind under-representation of women in India in the political field. Does the bill has provisions to ensure that the voices of Indian women representatives are heard in the decision-making process? Will this bill ensure assertion of their political right? The bill argues it will provide reservation for women representatives to take part in the political process. Does it violate the right of equal opportunities in the political realm? The paper would inquire about all these queries.

- Joining of dissimilar metals has discovered its utilization widely in power age, electronic, atomic reactors, petrochemical and substance ventures mostly to get customized properties in a part and decrease in weight. Anyway productive welding of divergent metals has represented a significant test because of contrast in thermo-mechanical and synthetic properties of the materials to be joined under a typical welding condition. This causes a precarious inclination of the thermomechanical properties along the weld. An assortment of issues come up in different welding like breaking, enormous weld leftover anxieties, relocation of particles during welding causing pressure focus on one side of the weld, compressive and tractable warm burdens, stress erosion splitting, and so forth.

Automatic recognition of people is a challenging problem which has received much attention during recent years due to its many applications in different fields. Face recognition is one of those challenging problems and up to date, there is no technique that provides a robust solution to all situations. This paper presents a new technique for human face recognition. This technique uses an image-based approach towards artificial intelligence by removing redundant data from face images through image compression using the two-dimensional discrete cosine transform (2D-DCT). The DCT extracts features from face images based on skin color. Feature-vectors are constructed by computing DCT coefficients. A self-organizing map (SOM) using an unsupervised learning technique is used to classify DCT-based feature vectors into groups to identify if the subject in the input image is �present� or �not present� in the image database. Face recognition with SOM is carried out by classifying intensity values of grayscale pixels into different groups. Evaluation was performed in MATLAB using an image database of 25 face images, containing five subjects and each subject having 5 images with different facial expressions. After training for approximately 850 epochs the system achieved a recognition rate of 81.36% for 10 consecutive trials. The main advantage of this technique is its high-speed processing capability and low computational requirements, in terms of both speed and memory utilization. Keywords�Face recognition, discrete cosine transform, self-organizing map, neural network, artificial intelligence.

 Abstract

The influence of social media has increased tremendously on our day to day life from last few years. On an average in India we spent 3hours, 30 minutes per day or 70.1% of daily media life. It has a direct impact on our cultural beliefs and social habits. People use social media for many things, such as socialising, finding and information sharing. It has revolutionised the way people communicate and socialise on web. The use of social media is increased in the electoral political culture also. From 2014 general election, the traditional election campaign strategy has been replaced by social media management by candidate. It is now a common exercise by the students� election candidates also to use social platform to reach the voters.

This research studies the effect of rock physics and mechanics on the potential for erosion in the disposal area of coal mines. The research data is secondary data in the form of geotechnical data from the geotechnical laboratory of PT. Bukit Asam. The physical properties analyzed in this study were water content and particle size distribution, while the mechanical properties analyzed in this study were plasticity index and shear stress. The correlation between physics and rock mechanics properties against erosion potential is calculated using empirical equations, while the magnitude and effect of correlation among the three calculated using Pearson correlation SPSS version 16. Based on this analysis it is known that there is a very strong positive influence between the plasticity index of the shear stress, with a value of R� = 0. 9955 or has a correlation of 0.998. While the shear stress has a strong influence with the erodibility coefficient of R� = 0.7225 or with a correlation level of 0.85. The correlation between the two is negative, which means erodibility coefficient decreases with increasing critical shear stress

Abstract: India has achieved self-sufficiency in foodgrains production, but the accessibility to food by the poor has been a major problem. The mere availability of food with government agencies is of little use if it is not accessible by the poor and those who need it most. The accessibility to the PDS foodgrains depends on both demand and supply-side factors. Perception and awareness at the household level play a crucial role in asserting their demand for their entitlement. Well aware and informed households bargain effectively with Fair Price Shops (FPS) dealers, assert their demand, and not let their PDS quota without purchase. Awareness among the households is low in the district, and households get confused about prices, quantity, and commodities. The PDS dealers have been the main source of confusion for the cardholders. The use of technology in the PDS may lower corruption and improve PDS functioning, but it created some hurdles for the cardholders and some points of times become the source of exclusion for the households. Aadhaar Based Biometric Authentication through the �Point of Scale� (PoS) machine created many hurdles for the beneficiaries. An alternative system to the PoS machine should be there to authenticate the beneficiaries. The government agencies and the NGOs should come forward to create mass level awareness among the cardholders to curve out the leakages and every form of corruption from the PDS.

 Abstract

Indonesia is a country that is classified as just starting the era of independent space flight research, especially in the development of rocketry. One of the obstacles to the development of rocket technology in Indonesia is the limited funds and the high cost of rocket fuel. The purpose of this scientific work is to produce alternative space rocket fuels that have a strong but economical thrust for rocket technology produced from used cooking oil and rice straw - one of the biggest waste. Used cooking oil contains glycerides which have a long carbon chain, namely esters between glycerol and carboxylic acids which can be used as alternative fuels for rockets. In the use of used cooking oil as a rocket propellant in solid form which tends to be more practical in its manufacture and use, it is necessary to use the oil binding media which is flammable in order to increase the effectiveness of the propellant namely cellulose. In this study used cooking oil is obtained through accumulation of household waste. Then carried out two stages of testing, namely the fuel production test phase to determine the potential of raw materials namely used cooking oil and rice straw as alternative space rocket fuel, the variables seen in this test are ease of production and fuel safety and static tests carried out to determine the magnitude of the power propellant seen from thrust and thrust-weight ratio of rocket fuel tested. Obtained the value of thrust and the highest thrust-weight ratio obtained on the R9 engine, respectively 187.37 - 471.10 Kg and 176.30 - 440.61 for the thrust-weight ratio. The results of the two stages of testing show that the combination of used cooking oil, rice straw and liquid oxygen as an oxidizer can be used as alternative rocket fuels which are relatively safe, economical, and high thrust power.

 Abstract

Health is one of the most essential and most important factors of human life. At times, we cannot really pay price for good health. These days, we come across many people who have been and are experiencing kidney stones, and as a result, they experience excruciating pain. It is really hard to delineate about the pain when one experiences kidney stones. It is very difficult, indeed to even sit or take any comfortable posture while experiencing or going through such situation. Kidney stones are crystallized foreign bodies, soft to touch, and are formed in the urinary tract or in the kidneys. The shape of kidney stones is always crystallized and we can easily crush them into soft mud when they are outside of human body. These tiny objects are foreign objects that generate severe pain and discomfort, and in simple terms, human body does not accept any foreign elements or objects entering into physical body or being formed in the body. It immediately reacts through the channel of pain, which is excruciating. Kidney stones are basically calcium oxalates deposits and are present in most of the adult population in the world today. These crystallized deposits keep forming again and again. One of the puzzling questions can be as to why these stones keep forming only within the kidneys. Human body is a complex machine. On a daily basis, we ingest and consume some quantity of food and liquids. The human body is at work and starts the process of digestion, then, the food is broken into small particles and into bits and pieces into almost liquid form. It then transfers to different organs and next, some of the solid mass is converted into energy, some into blood and so on. The remaining food material, which is not necessary or needed for the body is then considered waste, and thus, is thrown out of the body in the form of liquidation or feces. This is basically the function of human body, and during this process, one must take care to drink plenty of liquids in order for the flushing system to drive away waste material out of the body. In other words, one must maintain good hydration levels in order to avoid these waste materials to remain within the system. Stone formation is like, for example, one wishes to drink Horlicks or chocolate drink, then, he or she takes a hot cup of milk and mixes coco powder, and if he fails to mix the powder well, then, that powder turns into tiney stone deposits and will remain in the milk. In other words, the chocolate drink is not prepared well. Equivalently, one must not give scope for the mineral deposits to be formed, and thus, one can save oneself from these kidney stones. The objective and purpose of my study is to showcase that it is possible to treat and eliminate kidney stones naturally with the use of natural methods.

Dengue is one of the commonest arboviral diseases worldwide. More than half a million cases of DHF occur each year with at least 12,000 deaths. Patients have a triad of symptoms: i) Haemorrhagic manifestations ii) Evidence of plasma leakage iii) Platelet count < 1 lakh/?l Respiratory complications occur in severe stages of DHF and DSS when dengue virus antigen is found in alveolar lining cells of lungs that causes an increased permeability of alveolar capillary membrane and results in ARDS. Such severe cases might result hemoconcentration and hypoalbuminemia, leading to the detection of pleural effusions and ascites. Thoracic manifestations such as pleural effusion, pneumonia, pulmonary haemorrhage and haemoptysis, and ARDS can be seen.

Fast dissolving drug-conveyance system were first developed during the 1970s as an option for the tablets, containers, and syrups for pediatric and geriatric patients who experience inconveniences consume solid dosage form. Fast dissolving films have become a novel way to deal with oral drug delivery conveyance system as it gives comfort and convenience oral dosage forms, for example, orally disintegrating tablets, buccal tablets, and sublingual tablets, so mouth dissolving films are picking up the interest of countless pharmaceuticals industries. Mouth dissolving films are thin solid dosage forms which, when place in the oral cavity, dissolve inside a couple of moments without biting and administration of water. The oral, buccal mucosa being profoundly vascularized, the drug can retain directly and can enter the systemic circulations without going through first-pass hepatic metabolism. This advantage can be used to improved oral bioavailability of molecules that go through first-pass impact. These oral film offer a helpful method of dosing drug pediatric, geriatric, and bedridden patients. The sublingual and buccal conveyance of a drug by means of fast dissolving film can possibly improve the onset of action, lower down the dosing, and inprove the efficacy and safety profile of medicament. An ideal film ought to have properties like pleasent taste, high stability, and simplicity of taking care of. The current review gives a record of different plan techniques and their assessment utilized in film details and uses of mouth dissolving films.
