 Abstract

Drama has traditionally been a vehicle for expressing patriarchal ideas that serve as a means of repression and enslavement. It has for long fed the idea of inequality among individuals and has created dysfunctional relationships . Variety of discourses , including drama have contested the ideas of female sexuality and identity creating disputes. Post- Independent playwrights have utilised these ideas of gender, sexuality and identity to reframe and reconstruct the preconceived ideals and images. Post-Independent playwrights have incorporated and used myths to challenge and disrupt these ideas where the superiority of one group of people or one half of the society lies in the inferiority of the other . Playwrights have now tried to decentre these existing centres . The Pavitrata Ideal of total devotion and submission to husband is resisted in Varsha Adalja'sMandodari , while Bhisham Sahni's Madhavi delicately questions the commoditization of women and the body politics ingrained in both society and literature. This paper attempts to explore Madhavi's and Mandodari's journey to eternity and the path they incorporated in order to regain their identity as an individual .

 Abstract

The lack of available spectrum is a problem for everyone involved in the telecommunications sector. Recent research has demonstrated that inefficient use of the spectrum, rather than a lack of spectrum, is the primary cause of the availability problem. Inspiring from this line of thinking is the concept of New Radio(5G)that can make use of the spectrum as it becomes accessible in a manner similar to how natural frequencies are used. In this setting, we take on the dual challenges of power regulation and frequency allocation. Specifically, we develop a simple, near-optimal method with linear complexity to maximize the capacity of a new radio network by optimizing the distribution of channels among users. We also take into account a conservative design in which primary users must meet certain requirements.With the advent of 5G networks, it has become crucial to provide quality of service (QoS) for channel allocation for base station to macro-cell, to accommodate the enormous data rates and low latency of 5G's internet-connected devices, a new method for the delivery of quality of service has evolved. For over decades, there has been a rapid rise in the number of data users. In terms of bandwidth availability and reliability, data demand is at peak than standard voice services. Allocating a channel based on, the proposed method for decision-making algorithm trained using machine learning to detects when a channel becomes available for channel allocation, the proposed model will have lower average delay and a higher success rate.

 Abstract

This research paper delves into the intricate elements of postcolonialism as manifested in Kiran Desai's The Inheritance of Loss and Amitav Ghosh's The Calcutta Chromosome. The study focuses on key postcolonial themes such as marginalization, the concept of the subaltern, identity, multiculturalism, migration, hybridity, and diaspora. Desai's novel illustrates the enduring impact of colonialism and the cultural identity struggles faced by characters in post-colonial India. On the other hand, Ghosh's The Calcutta Chromosome presents an alternative history focusing on the subaltern people and their overlooked contributions to scientific discoveries during colonial India. Both novels scrutinize power dynamics within colonial and postcolonial contexts, shedding light on the colonial encounters that have shaped modern identities and cultural knowledge systems.

The Varicella-zoster virus (VZV) or human herpes virus 3 is a neurotropic human alpha herpes virus responsible for chickenpox/varicella and shingles/Herpes zoster (HZ). This review will focus on HZ. Since HZ is secondary to varicella, its incidence increases with age. In children and youngsters, HZ is rare and associated to metabolic and neoplastic disorders. In adults, advanced age, distress, other infections (such as AIDS or COVID-19), and immunosuppression are the most common risk factors. HZ reactivation has recently been observed after COVID-19 vaccination. The disease shows different clinical stages of variable clinical manifestations. Some of the manifestations bear a higher risk of complications.

 Abstract

Transformer is one of the important components of the power system, capable of transmitting and distributing the electricity generated by renewable energy sources. Dissolved Gas Analysis (DGA) is one of the effective techniques to diagnose early faults in oil-immersed transformers. It correlates the concentration and ratio of dissolved gases with transformer faults. Researchers have proposed many methods for fault diagnosis, such as double ratio method, Rogers method, Duval triangle method, etc., but all of them have some problems. Based on the strong data mining capability and good robustness of AI techniques, many researchers introduced AI techniques to mine the features of DGA data. According to the characteristics and scale of DGA data, researchers select appropriate AI techniques or make appropriate improvements to AI techniques to improve diagnostic performance. This paper presents a systematic review of the literature on the application of artificial intelligence techniques for DGA-based diagnosis and for solving intractable problems in early transformer fault diagnosis, which include neural networks, clustering, support vector machines, etc. In addition to reviewing the applications of these intelligent techniques, the diagnostic thinking proposed in this literature, such as the introduction of temporal parameters for comprehensive analysis of DGA data and the extraction of optimal features for DGA data, is also reviewed.

 Abstract

Historic assets create a focal point that people can relate to their past and are familiar with - giving a sense of place. Our built heritage represents the very best of our past. It also provides a huge resource that can play an important role in the future of our towns, cities and rural areas in terms of the stimulus provided to regeneration and the promotion of sustainable development. Evidence from across the country demonstrates that 'Heritage Works' is a valuable asset that has an important role to play as a catalyst for regeneration, redevelopment, rehabilitation, revitalization. Working with heritage assets brings a unique set of issues to the development process, such as understanding the special conservation, planning, funding and construction matters associated with them. The process also requires specialist knowledge, where expertise in any of these areas is lacking, projects can fail. The study has concentrated on listing buildings, as these heritage assets are most commonly associated with regeneration projects. Heritage assets are a key component of sustainable development. The re-use of such assets can be used to boost local economies, attract investment, highlight local distinctiveness and add value to neighbouring properties.

 Abstract

UNESCO's World Heritage Site Great Himalayan National Park Conservation Area (GHNPCA) is highly undulating and difficult terrain to cover by ground and hence along with Remote Sensing and GIS based study, an attempt was also made to study the structure of the vegetation through profile diagrams. Stratified random sampling was performed. Materials used mainly vegetation map, Survey of India maps, hypsometer, graph paper, measuring tape and graph paper. Size of plots was determined based on species area curve. Observations recorded for the months of May and November. For each vegetation type a plot of 25?10 m was laid along the gradient. Sample Plot has been drawn on graph sheets at an appropriate reduced scale (1 mm = 20 cm). Slope was obtained using hypsometer. A total of 66 sample plots were laid. Of these 46 were in communities with trees and shrubs and 20 were for grasslands. The sub tropical ground flora is quite disturbed and subjected to grazing and fire. Under broad leaved forest, regeneration of Aesculus indica is quite good with the presence of different age group plants. Ground flora is very rich because of thick humus and moist conditions under Broadleaf Mixed with Conifers Forests. In Secondary Scrub; Eco-development zone, been put to lot of biotic pressure. Secondary scrubs are found intermixed with agriculture. A very interesting community of Viburnum was located on way to Maror from Shakti. Subtropical riverain forests have Alnus nitida groth in narrow belts. Pure disturbed as well as undisturbed patches of Hippophae salifolia are found under Temperate Riverain Forest. Alpine Scrub, Betula utilis forms the top story, first story is formed by Rhododendron companulatum. On steep slopes extensive grasslands are there. Alpine grasslands are found mixed with alpine scrub. Terraces with orchards are very common sites under Habitation /Agriculture/ /Orchard. Rocks with scattered growth of grasses in alpine zone above tree line. The effort will be useful, for mounting an information base, which will enable conservation practices in future.

 Abstract

In this attempt of research work synthesis, hardness and tribological properties of aluminium metal matrix composites (AMMCs) are produced as Al-7068 matrix metal and reinforcements as TiC particulates through stir casting. Experiments were conducted by varying weight fraction of TiC (0%, 3%, 6%, 9% and 12%). Wear characteristics of Al-TiC composites have been investigated under dry sliding. Dry siding wear tests have been carried out using pin-on-disk wear tester at different loads (2 Kg & 3 Kg) and different speeds (200RPM, 400RPM, 600RPM). The tests were carried out making possible combination of load and speed with each weight fraction of TiC. The results indicate that on addition of TiC reinforcement in Al-7068 Alloy has improved the wear performance. The effect of load indicates that as load increases the wear increases and while speed increases the wear performances decreases. The hardness of the composite materials was measured using Brinell hardness tester and found that as weight fraction increases the hardness of the composite increases.

 Abstract

In response to society's need for personal data, a number of online information platforms have evolved as a crucial business model. In these platforms, a service provider purchases raw data from data suppliers and subsequently provides value-added services to data customers. The data trading layer presents a significant challenge for data consumers, too, namely how to confirm that the service provider is indeed obtaining and processing their data. Furthermore, data contributors often are reluctant to provide sensitive personal information to data consumers or to reveal their true identity. A method for identifying contributors that is based on honesty is given. A user can submit an assessment to the system after purchasing a product to see if contributors are permitted. Data contributors cannot personally identify others under Data Verification and Privacy Preservation, even though they must legally provide their own data. Furthermore, it is required of the service provider to accurately gather and manage data. Furthermore, critical raw data and the personally identifiable information of data providers are appropriately safeguarded. For data verification and privacy protection, we also used two more data services, and we closely evaluated their effectiveness on two real-world datasets.

 Abstract

This project aims to advance avian identification through the utilization of audio signals, employing a comprehensive approach that integrates with deep learning techniques. The study focuses on developing three distinct models: Ridge Classifier, Support Vector Machine (SVM) Classifier, and Artificial Neural Network (ANN). By converting audio signals into numerical data using standard Python libraries, we aim to create robust models capable of accurately identifying bird species based on their distinct audio signatures. The Ridge and SVM classifiers, representing classical ML paradigms, will leverage advanced feature extraction methodologies. Simultaneously, the ANN model, a deep learning approach, will harness the power of neural networks to capture intricate patterns within the audio data. This interdisciplinary fusion of ML and deep learning techniques is poised to significantly enhance avian species identification, contributing to biodiversity monitoring and conservation efforts.
