 Abstract

The lockdown due to Covid19 has largely affected the lives of students as they are suddenly forced to transform from traditional teaching to online teaching. In this backdrop, this primary study attempts to understand the impact of Covid19 on demographic details and readiness to adopt online classes of UG/PG students and to assess the economic perception and attitude of UG/PG students after the pandemics with the help of a questionnaire. The results of this study reveal that out of 205 respondents who participated in this survey, 44.4% of them were from Telangana, 37.1% are from Andhra Pradesh and the rest of the students are from other states. Almost 80% of the respondents represented from cities and metropolitan cities and the remaining are from towns and villages. The survey reveals that almost 44 % of the students were in the 20-22 years age group only. Most of the students expressed that they faced many difficulties due to a sudden shift to online classes like lack of interaction with teachers, infrastructural difficulties, and financial difficulties. Finally, this study concludes that most of the respondents have learned many lessons from Covid19.

 Abstract

Wax deposition in crude oil during transportation and production cuases serious issues such as flow reduction and blockage in pipeline adversely impact pipeline performance. Different mechanical and chemical methods have been used to overcome this issue. Out of all these methods, pour point depressant has been found to be an effective remedie to wax deposition. Pour Point Deprassant has been synthesized through different methods and used widely for minimizing the deposition of wax in the crude oils lines. Besides these, the PPD are also used to reduce the freezing point of crude oil thereby reducing the flow resistance during transportation of oil. It is used as the flow improver which increases the liquidity of the crude oil. The various factors affecting the performance of the crude oil in presence of synthesized PPDs have been studied among which many of the PPD synthesized are Oleic acid based or maleic anhydride based polymeric additives through esterfication and Friedel Craft Alkylation. Different types of PPDs having high molecular weight copolymers show better results than other low molecular weight polymers.PPD synthesized were examined on the the crude oils of the Limbodra, Nada, Langhnaj, Akholjuni of Gujarat region and the results were investigated throught SARA Analysis, Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy(FTIR), Gel Permeation Chromatography(GPC).

 Abstract

A large number of students are going to colleges and universities without proper planning. They think of selecting a career after finishing their education. Consequently round pegs are inserted in square holes and square pegs at round holes, resulting in wastage of human services. Due to this reason it is therefore necessary to have well-organized guidance program to remove the defect. Society itself and its demand are continuously changing and becoming more and more complex and without any guidance program it is not possible for a child to cope with the changing society. So, the program of guidance is needed for all the children in every aspect of their harmonious development. According to Kochhar (2004), �The Guidance programmed assumes a lot of importance for secondary schools as the Indian society is undergoing rapid change, socially as well as economically coupled with the changes in the values and life style of people�. Thus the guidance programmed, like any other educational programmed, requires careful and consistent development. School guidance is developing very rapidly in many countries around the World. As with any practice as far as role of counselor is concerned in a secondary school setting, challenges and special issues are often identified, discussed and managed. At secondary level, there is though competition among the students to secure good marks in the exam and to select a bright future vocational option and this leads to frustration among students. In such a scenario the role of school guidance programmed is very much important to help the students in order to know their abilities, to come out of stress and problems and to lead them smoothly to pass the journey of education. Therefore it is recommended that every school should have proper guidance unit and its proper functioning should be there to help the students for their varied problems, which will help in enhances the overall quality of education.

 Abstract

The purpose of this study was to find out the effect of continuous eight over bowling spell on physical exertion during practice session. Ten (10) male pace bowlers age ranging from 18 to 23 years of Paschim Medinipur West Bengal were selected for this study. Data on selected parameter namely Rate of perceived exertion (RPE) were measured prior to 1st over and immediately after the completion of each 3rd, 5th, and 8th overs, by using Borg scale. The basic statistical parameters were calculated for all the data: the mean, standard deviation and One-way, repeated measures ANOVA were performed to determine differences in the respective 8-over spell. The result shows that the rate of perceived exertion (RPE) increases significantly during the eight over bowling spell but the RPE of the pace bowlers indicated ‘very light to fairly light’ levels and final RPE represented a rating of ‘somewhat hard’. It may be concluded that continue eight over bowling spell has no deleterious effect on metabolic stress and it shows that the bowlers still feel able to continue the bowling spell.

This paper explores the complex relationship between transgendered people and the spatial identity in the city, in reference to various works of literature, secondary data, and some primary data collected. The studies have undergone various exposures in the context of transgender in their quest for survival in the day to day life. This paper explores the complex relationship between transgendered people and cities specifically in the Indian context, and in particular, their relationship with spaces within those places. The paper highlights this often neglected group and considers the nature of their perceptions of a variety of urban spaces. Using a combination of face-to-face interviews for data, few interviews were conducted with male-identified transgender individuals aged 20-50 from Mumbai- In a railway station, and in streets/market place. Subsequently, literature from an array of disciplines such as the feminist perspective and Marxist perspective was presented to interpret and discuss different implications. Additionally, secondary data input was also added for broader studies, and in determining transgenders in different location and space.

 Abstract

The occurrence of drought has been increasing over the years hence, making the farmers and farming more vulnerable. Indian Agriculture is highly dependent on the climate. Farmers are most concerned with the occurrence of drought when available water supplies are not able to meet crop water demands especially in a country like India, where 80 per cent of the farmers are small and marginal landholders. At household level, it is witnessed and observed that women folks are active participators and have vigorous contributions in agriculture and agricultural related activities, just like their men counterparts. When the whole farming household is affected due to drought, women tend to get affected of consequences. In North-eastern India, on an average farmer have small land holding (1.17 hectare) low productivity of 1.13 Mt ha-1. The study revealed that most of the women spend extra time in agriculture related activities as well as at the household chores during the low rainfall or drought years. Most of this extra time is engaged in fetching drinking water. During drought, the women also reported that they have to work extra hours in their fields by almost 2.5 hours to perform agricultural operations. Time spent by women in preparing the land for cultivation also increased during drought since it is the women who help in cleaning the bunds, removing weed residues, etc. Therefore, the additional time spent to carry out this task minimizes the time available to engage in other income generating activities, making women more vulnerable.

 Abstract

Autism is a complex neurobehavioral condition that include impairments in social interaction and developmental language and communication skills combined with rigid, repetitive behaviors. Because of the range of symptoms, this condition is now known as �AUTISM SPECTRUM DISOREDER�. It covers a large spectrum of symptoms, skills, and level of impairments. ASD ranges in severity from a handicap that somewhat limits an otherwise normal life to a devastating disability that may require institutional care. Children with autism have trouble in communicating. They have trouble understanding what other people think and feel. This makes them very difficult for them to express themselves either with words or through gestures, facial expressions and touch. It is associated with a combination of genetic and environmental factors. Risk factors during pregnancy include certain infections such as rubella, toxin including alcohol, cocaine, pesticides, air pollution, fetal growth and autoimmune diseases. A child with ASD who is very sensitive may be greatly troubled sometimes even pained by sounds, touches, smells or sights that seem normal to others. Children who are autistic may have repetitive, stereotyped body movements such as rocking, pacing or hand flapping. They may have unusual responses to people, attachments to objects, resistance to change in their routines, or aggressive or self-injurious behavior. At times they may seem not to notice people, objects or activities in their surroundings. Some children with autism may develop seizures. And in some cases those seizures may not occur until adolescence.

 Abstract

This paper reveals that the dielectric properties and other physical properties, for example, electrical conductivity (AC) and unwinding time or initiation vitality have been read for two frameworks unadulterated LC [V]6,6, [V]7,6, [V]8,6, [V]6,7, [V]7,7 and [V]8,7 and their doped with silver nanoparticles. The outcomes show the expanding in genuine dielectric permittivity ? with expanding length terminal chain. So the genuine dielectric permittivity expanding with raising temperature. To think about between the estimations of (400) Hz and (4000) Hz we watch these qualities at the low recurrence are bigger than that in high recurrence. By and large, one can see that the doping of Ag nano particles viably diminished the permittivity of the LC materials with its huge electric dipole second. The electrical conductivity ? esteem for unadulterated LC tests as a rule increments with expanding temperature. So we watched expanding of electrical conductivity esteems at high recurrence. The time scale is talked about as far as the Arrhenius plot. For the most part, with expanding the temperature the timeframe that spends by atoms at the change state will increment. The initiation vitality Ea esteems show the expansion in the enactment vitality to the doped frameworks.

 Abstract

Human understanding of behavior has been well studied in computer vision applications. Many popular methods of action recognition have shown that knowledge of action can be gained from motion videos or still images effectively. Many of the current methods for identifying video action suffer from the problem of missing appropriate labeled videos for instruction. In such cases, over-fitting will be a potential issue, and action recognition efficiency is limited. We suggest an adaptation approach to improve video action identification by tailoring image information. The adapted information is used to learn the meanings of associated behavior by examining the components of both branded videos and images. We propose an IVA classifier to achieve good output of video action recognition, which can borrow the information adapted from images based on the common visual features.

With the evolution of the Internet, there has been a huge spurt in online transactions and also an increase in sharing of private, confidential and sensitive information over the web. This in turn has increased the requirement of highly secure and swift methodologies to protect such data using modern cryptographic techniques such as the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES). AES is an endorsed cryptographic algorithm that can be utilized to secure electronic information. AES was replacing the old Data Encryption Standard (DES) with more security. In order to achieve the same, this project discusses significant and novel modifications to the existing hardware architecture of the mix column step of the AES algorithm. And also implement the fault detect scheme for AES.

 Abstract

Agriculture plays undeniably an indispensable role to human kind. Due to increased population, demand for the food is also getting increased, hence the production should be maximized. To ensure this, crops should be protected from diseases that are caused by fungi, viruses and bacteria. Deep learning is a part of a broader family of machine learning methods based on Artificial Neural Networks with representation learning. It can draw conclusions from various sets of raw data. It can aid farmers to predict the yield and quality of crops, detect weed and diseases. Precision Farming applies real time and historical data along with machine learning and deep learning algorithms to arrive at specific decisions for small regions of the application rather than applying the same working for a large range in the traditional method. In order to increase the production and maximize the profit, the crops should be protected from the diseases. In existing system, only the fungal disease called Anthracnose in Mango leaves is detected. For the pre-processing of leaves, histogram equalization method for contrast enhancement and for resizing the image to a standard size central square crop method are used. And for the classification multilayer convolutional neural network is used. In the proposed work, diseases for crops like paddy, plants like brinjal and tress like citrus family will be detected. Grayscale conversion is to be done for the preprocessing and noises in the image will be removed by using median filter algorithm.For the leaf segmentation Active Contour approach is going to be implemented. For the classification part, Multilayer Convolutional Neural Network (MCNN) is going to be implemented. And the crucial improvement in our work is recommending the fertilizers and pesticides for the affected diseases.
