 Abstract

This research introduces a novel method for collecting data on road distress. This distress collection is a critical component in determining future maintenance needs for existing roadway sections. The earlier way of finding various flaws in existing pavement, which is critical for identifying areas with the poorest road conditions, was visual inspection of the pavement. Distress detection was carried out on an existing flexible pavement segment of National Highway-53 in this paper. The state of the pavement has an impact on a variety of characteristics, including passenger comfort, safety, volatile organic compounds (VOC), vehicle speed and travel duration, emissions/pollution, and so on. With photographs and precise distance measurements, this Network Survey Vehicle gets highway pavement information such as roughness, rutting, cracking, ravelling, bleeding, texture depth, edge cracking, potholes, geometric data, and more at every place.

 Abstract

Avascular necrosis, also known as aseptic or ischemic necrosis. It is the condition in which there is loss of function of bone tissue. The affected bones become fragile and may fracture easily. It usually occurs when blood flow to part of bone blocks. Without blood flow, the bone tissue dies from a lack of nutrition and oxygen. AVN of the femoral head is most common type of necrosis affecting the bones. Management of AVN aims at the preservation of structure, function and relief from pain. Many surgical procedures such as drilling and insertion of bone grafts, insertion of prosthesis and modified Whitman or Colonna reconstruction are carried out to cure the condition but all these procedures are costly with the prognosis being poor. Signs and symptoms of AVN are nearer to asthivaha srotodusti vikara (musculoskeletal origin disorders) and can be considered with gambhira avastha (chronic stage). In this paper an effort has been made to evaluate efficiency of Panchakarma procedure in the conservative management of AVN of femoral head. This paper includes case study of male patient with AVN of right femoral head, is treated with rukshana (Drying therapy) followed by shodhana (biopurification) and brhmana (rejuvenation). Patient was observed for symptomatic improvements. The results were encouraging. The therapy provided marked relief from pain, tenderness, stiffness and improvement in gait. Conservative management of AVN through Ayurvedic principles provides significant relief and improves quality of life.

 Abstract

The current research focuses on investigating various adjustable factors that impact the outcomes, such as the magnitude of vibrations. The ability to predict vibrations between the tool and workpiece is crucial for machine tool users to select optimal cutting parameters, such as depth of cut and spindle rotation, in order to minimize vibrations. Machining is a complex process where several parameters can negatively affect the desired outcome. Among them, cutting tool vibrations play a significant role in influencing dimensional precision of machined components and the lifespan of cutting tools. Cutting tool vibrations primarily occur due to cutting parameters such as cutting speed, depth of cut, and tool feed rate. In this study, cutting tool vibrations are managed in a lathe machine by utilizing a tool holder supported with and without a damping pad. The vibration signals of the cutting tool are controlled and analyzed using FFT (Fast Fourier Transform) analysis. To predict and validate the results, the Taguchi method, experimental studies, and data analysis are conducted to confirm the effectiveness of the proposed damping system. Additionally, a regression analysis is employed to develop the most suitable equation for predicting the expected response value based on given predictor values.

 Abstract

The need of concrete is increasing every year as the population of humans are increasing as per their demands i.e. infrastructure developments and shifting composition etc. Due to rising demands and fight to produce good quality of concrete, construction industries have overused the natural materials used in concrete, leads us to extinction in natural materials and results in rising prices of materials. Thus, the environmental problems related with excessive extraction and mining from natural sources have been reported in many countries. Due to finite availability of natural materials, and involvement of economy, it has now become very important to look as for the alternative source for natural materials used in concrete i.e. gravels and natural sand. Waste foundry sand (WFS) is a propitious material that can be used as an alternative for the natural sand i.e. (fine aggregates) in concrete. The thesis demonstrates the potential of re-use for waste foundry sand i.e. industrial by-product as a substitute of a fine aggregate in concrete. The fine aggregates i.e. (natural sand) are replaced with WFS in six different substitution rates i.e. (2.5%, 5%, 7.5%, 10%, 12.5% and 15%). Tests were performed to examine the mechanical property of compressive strength. The results indicate that the compressive strength was increased from 3.93%-9.3%, for 2.5%-5% replacement levels of waste foundry sand with fine aggregates in concrete and after that there is a systematic decrement in strength as the percentage goes on increasing at curing age of 28 days. From following results, it was concluded that 10% WFS replacement level of WFS with fine aggregate in concrete can be effectively used to make concrete and various application of concrete and beyond 10% WFS replacement level is not beneficial. Analysis using SPSS software was carried out to analyse the correlation between different mechanical properties and replacement levels of WFS. The correlation yielded a negative coefficient of change and R2 (0.93) of acceptable levels to analyse the reduction of strength parameters under acceptable level. The correlation will help to keep the replaced concrete safe.

 Abstract

In the recent past, several attempts by the RBI to control inflation through tight monetary policy have ended up slowing the growth process, thereby provoking prolonged discussion among academics and policymakers about the efficacy of monetary policy in India. Against this backdrop, the present study attempts to estimate the causal relationship between monetary policy and its final objectives; i.e., growth, and controlling inflation in India. In view of the fact that output gap is one of the determinants of future inflation, an attempt has also been made to study the causal relationship between output gap and inflation. Furthermore, any attempt to control inflation affects output with the same or even greater magnitude than inflation, thereby damaging the growth process. The relationship between output gap and inflation was found to be positive, as reported in earlier studies for India. Furthermore, the output gap causes inflation only in the short-to medium-run. he economy of India is that the seventh-largest-economy in the world measured by nominal Gross Domestic Product & the third largest by Purchasing Power Parity (PPP) and therefore the outlook for short term growth is additionally good as per the International monetary fund, the Indian economy is the "bright spot" within the global landscape. India additionally topped the world Bank growth outlook for 2015-2016 for the first time with the economy growth 7.6% (expected grown is 8.0+in 2016-2017). "Fiscal policy is that a part of government policy that is concerned with Raising Revenue through Taxation". It is directly affects the monetary resources power within the hands of the general public. In economics and political science, fiscal policy is the use of government revenue collection (mainly taxes) & expenditure (spending) to influence the economy. Once the government changes the amount of taxation & government disbursement, it influences aggregate demand of economic activity. The fiscal policy will be accustomed stabilize the economy over the course of the fluctuation. Tax policy, expenditure policy, investment or disinvestment methods and debt or surplus management is that the core basis of the fiscal policy. In underdeveloped countries the importance of economic policy is extremely high.

 Abstract

The purpose of this study was to look into how transgender people's emotional control and life satisfaction relate to one another. 75 transgender people between the ages of 20 and 35 made up the study's sample. Data for the analysis were gathered from a variety of non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and people, making sure that each participant gave informed consent. Non-probability deliberate sampling was used to choose the sample. The Satisfaction with Life Scale (SWLS) by Diener and the Emotional Regulation Questionnaire (ERQ) created by Gross and John were employed as inventories to gauge emotional regulation and life satisfaction, respectively. The study's findings supported the hypothesis by showing a strong positive association between emotional control and life satisfaction (r = 0.284, p 0.01). According to the findings, life satisfaction tends to rise favorably together with emotional regulation. These results underline the significance of emotional control in fostering higher levels of life satisfaction in transgender people. It may be possible to enhance general well-being and quality of life through additional studies and interventions that target strengthening emotional regulation abilities in this population.

Abstract This research paper delves into the significance of nature in Romantic poetry, focusing on the works of five major poets: Wordsworth, Coleridge, Byron, Shelley, and Keats. Nature, during the Romantic period, was far more than mere scenery; it served as an active participant within the literary discourse, influencing themes of spirituality, morality, human emotions, societal change, and the transient nature of life. While each poet appreciated the profound influence of nature, their interpretations and uses of nature within their works varied significantly. Wordsworth often viewed nature as a nurturing force and moral guide; Coleridge used it as a lens for exploring the human imagination; Byron employed nature as a critical lens to reflect human imperfections; Shelley saw nature as an instigator of intellectual thought and societal change; and Keats reveled in nature's sensual and aesthetic richness. The paper concludes by emphasizing the integral role nature played in shaping the literary and philosophical landscape of the Romantic period, reinforcing its enduring relevance in understanding the relationship between humans and the natural world.

The study compared the achievement of Senior Secondary School Two (SSS2) chemistry students in basic thermodynamic topics between structured inquiry-based instruction and the traditional method of teaching chemistry. One hundred and nine sampled students were randomly selected from six secondary schools, who actively engaged in six weeks of structured inquiry-based instruction and participated in pre-test post-test were samples for the study. The structured inquiry-based instruction was constructed in line with the identified students' learning difficulties in thermodynamics. The inquiry-based instruction featured meaningful engagement in tasks, problem solving, group work, exploration, investigation, questioning, discussion and communication. The test was constructed to determine the students' critical reasoning in application, analysis, synthesis and evaluation of basic thermodynamic concepts rather than memorization of the concepts. The test and the structured inquiry-based instruction were validated by two chemistry educators and the test reliability coefficient was highly positive using pre-test post-test technique. The study identified students' learning difficulties in thermodynamic concepts. The result showed that, the structured inquiry-based instruction improved students' achievement in thermodynamic concepts. There was a significant difference in the students' achievement between the traditional method and inquiry-based instruction using paired t-test statistical method in favour of inquiry-instruction. The study recommended provision of learning resources and chemistry teachers' adequate knowledge of learning pedagogy and chemistry contents in implementing well-structured chemistry curriculum.

Although it is the most common disease in women worldwide, breast cancer may be effectively treated if detected at an early stage. Recently, artificial intelligence (AI)-based technology has showed promise for early breast cancer detection. The goal of this thesis is to investigate the possibility of using AI for screening and early detection of breast cancer. The research will use AI systems, such as convolutional neural networks and deep learning techniques, to analyse mammography images. The performance of the AI model will be evaluated in comparison to established diagnostic techniques. The primary purpose of this research is to evaluate the accuracy with which AI systems can detect breast cancer in its earliest stages. This study's findings might help shape a new approach to breast cancer diagnosis, which could ultimately lead to a significant reduction in mortality rates associated with the condition.

Despite being subject to manifold critical interventions in the past, Joseph Conrad's novels still invite further critical analysis by the recently developed theoretical paradigm of Ecocriticism. Ecocriticism, for its thoroughgoing exploration of the causative history of the 'otherization,' 'domination,' and 'exploitation' of Nature, finds The Enlightenment majorly responsible for such anthropocentric devaluation of Nature. Conrad's delineation of the man-Nature dialectic, however, seems to present a sustained critique of the Nature-derogating principles of The Enlightenment through its initial exposition and subsequent demolition of anthropocentrism. Such a reversal method takes us to a conclusion that Conrad does not promote the idea of man being the master of Nature, rather, establishes, in concurrence with what ecocritics would intend to ascertain in the end that man is nothing but an infinitesimally small element in the vast biotic life of Nature.

Water is one of the most essential key aspects of our lives because it is the most necessary thing for all the living things on our planet. Because there is no life without water, we use it for various purposes like cleaning, drinking, and many more. There is no life without water, and in that sense, drinking water is the most essential thing in our lives. Salts like magnesium, sodium, calcium, and potassium are the important salts that we need in our body to be healthy. If any one of those salts is not present in the water, it can cause a lot of health problems like typhoid, polio, cholera, etc. There are so many places where people drink this impure water and are suffering from this type of disease. They are drinking this water because they don't have enough knowledge about the water quality, so here we will focus on the water quality prediction. This paper suggests Ann, Random Forest, Propose an Adaptive Frequency analysis-based method for earlier prediction of water before drinking it. We predict whether the water is safe to drink or not so that people will be aware of it. This prediction process includes a data set that contains water quality parameters such as D.O(mg/l), PH, conductivity, Nitratio, Fecal Coliform, and Total coliform. And here, first, the data is imported, creating the main window, Defining global variables, Creating GUI elements, Functions for data processing, Configuring the main window, and running the application

Following the partition of India in 1947 both India and Pakistan arrogated the claim of the erstwhile princely state of Jammu and Kashmir and the never-ending conflict came into being. Several narratives from the valley echo ambiguously intertwined, crusading amongst themselves. This research offers a comparative analysis of the representation of Kashmir in Arundhati Roy's The Ministry of Utmost Happiness with that of some inmate authors from valley; Sajad Malik's Munnu: A Boy from Kashmir, Pran Kishore's Gul Gulshan Gulfam, Basharat Peer's Curfewed Nights and Mirza Wahid's The Book of Gold Leaves and traces parallels amongst their narratives. Extending further to analyze the Kashmiri people's reception of violence and towards the very end, weigh the facts from these fictions with that of from the mainstream Indian media.
