Abstract:

Hypercortisolism as a sign of hypothamamus-pituitary-adrenocortical (HPA) axis overactivity and sleep EEG changes are frequently observed in depression. Closely related to the HPA axis is the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) as 1. adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) is a common stimulus for cortisol and aldosterone, 2. cortisol release is suppressed by mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) agonists 3. angiotensin II (ATII) releases CRH and vasopressin from the hypothalamus. The first passage time and the bounds of the survival functions for the application are also obtained

Abstract:

In the internal combustion engine there are many reciprocating parts which are responsible for giving the motion to the engine. from them the piston is very important part of the internal combustion engine.. The working condition of the piston is so worst in comparison of other parts of the internal combustion engine. There is very high probability to failure of the piston due to high wear and tear. So there is necessary to inspection the working condition of piston. In before there is no availability of software packages. So there is difficult to check out the failure of the piston, it is also very time taken process. In now days the software packages are used to consume less time and give quality assurance. In this study work there are two steps of analysis of the piston they are Designing and Analysis. Firstly design the model of the piston in giving design specification on the modelling software like INVENTOR . Then giving it the constraints which are act on the working condition of the piston after import the model of the piston into the analysis software ANSYS in IGES format. Then the analysis become completed on the different parameters(temperature, stress, deformation) and easily analysis the result. In this work the piston become optimized after the reducing the material of the piston. the mass and volume of the piston become reduced. The deformation also increased after the optimization which is responsible for the stress distribution on the piston head or piston crown.

Abstract:

Power system security is recognized as one of the major problems in many power systems throughout the world. Power system insecurity such as transmission lines being overloaded causes transmission elements cascade outages, which may lead to complete blackout. In accordance with these reasons, the prediction and recognition of voltage instability in power system has particular importance and it makes the network security stronger. This work, by considering the power system contingencies based on the effects of them on Mega Watt Margin (MWM) and maximum loading point (MLP) is focused to analyse the voltage stability using continuation power flow method. The study has been carried out on IEEE 30-Bus Test System using MATLAB and PSAT softwares and results are presented.

Abstract:

Accidents are a major public health concern, resulting in an estimated 1.2 million deaths and 50 million injuries worldwide each year specifically, the relationships between drivers' characteristics and road accidents are not fully understood. Many factors are involved in the accident occurrence at construction site. Some important elements that create a significant portion of accidents include: safety management error, poor training programs, human element, act of god, outdated procedure and no clear monitoring policy. Although some of these items are inevitable, but the occurrence of the largest part can be prevented. Therefore, for ameliorating the safety in a project each of these items should be analyzed and a practical approach introduced. In general, near miss, incident and accident are three dependent levels that mainly lead to injury. Risk and hazard are allocated in first level which means near miss, therefore, no on-time identification of hazard and risk causes to create incident and preventing accident in incident stage is unavoidable.

Abstract:

India has a road network of an estimated 3.3 million km, which carries nearly 65 per cent of freight and 85 per cent of passenger traffic. The road traffic is estimated to be growing at an annual rate of 7-10 per cent, while the vehicle population is growing at a rate of 12 per cent per year. A Road Safety Audit (RSA) qualitatively estimates and reports on potential road safety issues and identifies opportunities for improvements in safety for all road users. The Road Safety Audit consists of safety principles to the design of a new or a rehabilitated road section, to prevent frequent occurrence of accidents or to reduce their severity. In this project analysis of one of the major arterial street of Nagpur city will be undertaken. The location of interest for the analysis is Wardha Road from Morris College Square to Airport Intersection. The roadway carries considerable amount of traffic throughout the day and it has number of conflict points such as merging of traffic from flyover. A detailed analysis of Wardha Road will be carried out from the point of view of safety and supplemental analysis regarding the traffic growth and accident analysis will also be performed. The project aims to identify deficiencies, developing mitigating strategies, improving public relations,enhancing credibility of the roads and calculating the crash rate of intersection or length of roads.

Abstract:

The employment of symbolic programming in analog circuit design for system interfaces is proposed. Given a rational transfer function with a set of specifications and constraints, one may autonomously synthesize it into an analog circuit. First, a classification of the target transfer function polynomials into 14 classes is performed. The classes include both stable and unstable functions as required. A symbolic exhaustive search algorithm based on a circuit configuration under investigation is then conducted where a polynomial in hand is to be identified. For illustration purposes, a set of complete design equations for the primary rational transfer functions is obtained targeting all classes of second order polynomials based on a proposed general circuit configuration. The design consists of a single active element and four different circuit structures. Finally, an illustrative example with full analysis and simulation is presented.

Abstract:

Software Reliability Growth Models (SRGM) have been developed to estimate software reliability measures such as software failure rate, number of remaining faults and software reliability. In this paper, the software analyzers tool proposed for deriving several software reliability growth models based on Enhanced Non-homogeneous Poisson Process (ENHPP) in the presence of imperfect debugging and error generation. The proposed models are initially formulated for the case when there is no differentiation between failure observation and fault removal testing processes and then this extended for the case when there is a clear differentiation between failure observation and fault removal testing processes. Many Software Reliability Growth Models (SRGM) have been developed to describe software failures as a random process and can be used to measure the development status during testing. With SRGM software consultants can easily measure (or evaluate) the software reliability (or quality) and plot software reliability growth charts.

Abstract:

Simple design and efficiency make pulsejet engines attractive for aeronautical short-term operation applications. An active control system extends the operating range and reduces the fuel consumption considerably so that this old technology might gain a new interest. During the operations of these pulsejet engines the surfaces of engine will get more heated. In order to cool the engine surface and to get more thrust we have attached an additional component called secondary inlet in that valve less pulsejet engine. The pulsejet is the only jet engine combustor that shows a net pressure gain between the intake and the exhaust. The pulsejet is the only jet engine combustor that shows a net pressure gain between the intake and the exhaust. We choose the LOCKWOOD's design of pulsejet engine. By using the CFD analysis we have analysed the modified design of valveless pulsejet engine. This project provides an overview of this unique process and the results of these design modifications are reported.

Abstract:

Homogeneous epoxy coating containing polymer nanocomposite (PNC) was successfully synthesized and applied on carbon steel substrates by room temperature curing of fully mixed epoxy slurry. (PNC) containing both ZNO nanoparticles and epoxy hyper branched polymer (EHBP), a new double layer thin film which comprises ZNO-epoxy as a primer coat and ZNO-EHBP-epoxy as a top coat offers better corrosion protection compared to the purely inorganic ZNO-epoxy coating and hybrid ZNO-EHBP-epoxy coating. Chemical structures of synthesized compounds were confirmed by FTIR, H1NMR spectroscopy and GPC. The surface morphology and phase structure of the produced Zno nanoparticles were characterized by scanning electron microscopy SEM, transmission electron microscopy TEM and X-ray diffraction. Chemical resistance of theses coatings to NaOH and HCL was investigated. The effect of incorporating polymer nanocomposite and new double layer coating on corrosion resistance of epoxy coated steel was investigated by salt spray test.

Abstract:

The construction of high rise structure is quite common in this era. There are a number of high rise structures constructed all over the world and are being constructed. The analysis and design of high rise structure is quite different from that of low rise structures because of lateral forces due to wind and earthquake. In high rise structures the resistance to lateral loading (wind and earthquake loads) will be the dominant criteria that have to be considered in the analysis and design and an efficient lateral load resisting system will define the efficiency of tall structures. In the present paper it is aimed to study different lateral load resisting systems like octagrid and hexagrid bracing systems for tall building. Not much information is available in the literature on such systems. It is intended to study such lateral load resisting systems. The two types of bracing systems including octagrid and hexagrid bracings are modeled and analyzed. Behavior under lateral loads of hexagrid and octagridsystem is compared with that and the commonly employed shear wall systems. The key parameter for comparision is the top story displacement under wind and seismic loading, the maximum storey drift ratio and also quantity of concrete consumed. It is found that the hexagrid and octagrid systems are best with respect to the above parameter. Although there is a marginal increase in the quantity of concrete consumed.

Abstract:

The most common authentication method is to use alphanumerical usernames and passwords. This method has been shown to have considerable disadvantage. For example, users tend to pick passwords that can be easily guessed. On the other hand, if a password is very difficult to guess, then it is often difficult to remember. To address this problem, some researchers have developed authentication methods that use pictures as passwords. Graphical Password based on the fact that humans tend to remember images better. In this paper, we will propose a new algorithm that using watermarking technique as the solution to solving image gallery attacks and using the random character set generation for each image for resistance to shoulder surfing attack to provide better system security. All the information images in registration phase will be process by copy right protection of watermarking where the login page will check this information for security purposes.

Abstract:

Deep drawing is one of widely used sheet metal working process in industries to produce cup shaped components at a very high rate. The present study aims to determine the optimum shape of blank for deep drawing of cylindrical cup without ears. Earing is one of the major defects observed during deep drawing process due to anisotropic nature of sheet metal. Earing is defined as formation of waviness on uppermost portion of deep drawn cup. Earing defect occurs due to non-uniform material properties within plane of sheet (i.e. planar anisotropy). Knowledge about ear formation in deep drawing process allows a prior modification of process which can result in defect free final product with financial saving and time. In the present study efforts have been made to study the earing problem in deep drawing of cylindrical cups by finite element modeling software HYPERWORK-6.12. The blank material as EN10130Fe01 mild steel sheet of 1mm thickness has been considered as it has wide application a fabricating critical automobile parts. Mechanical parameters of mild steel are incorporated in finite element simulation of deep drawing process. Significant earing was observed at rolling and transverse direction on deformed cup form circular blank. Modification of initial blank is done to find the optimum blank to reduce the earing defect. Optimal blank shows significant reduction of % earing height, reduction in drawing load & improvement in maximum thickness variations.

Abstract:

The enzymatic processes according Michaelis-Menten kinetics have been studied from various approaches to describe the inhibition state. Proposals for inhibition were compared from a generic process, where kinetic constants have received unitary values, and the numeric value of the concentration of substrate was ten (10) times higher than the numerical value of the concentration of enzyme. For each inhibition model proposed, numerical solutions were obtained from nonlinear system of ordinary differential equations, generating results presents by graphs showing the variation of the enzyme and enzyme complexes, also the variation of substrate and product of the reaction. Also, was designed a model with performance, indicating similar behavior to that seen in the Michaelis-Menten kinetics, where complex of reaction is rapidly formed and throughout the process, tends to decay to zero. Thus, in this new proposed model, the effect of inhibition starts at zero and, throughout the process, tends to the nominal value of the initial enzyme concentration. Such responses have proved to be valid for different values of enzyme concentration and process time, showing robustness. The proposed model was applied to the hydrolysis of disaccharides, providing a setting with conservation of mass of the model at the end of the process regarding the responses of the carbohydrate concentration.

Abstract:

Considering the importance of real time filtering, a comparison was done between two prominent window techniques known for digital filtering. A 16 tap digital band pass FIR filter is designed for each design technique (Kaiser and Hamming) and implemented over FPGA. The Simulink model of the filter confirms the correctness and other properties of the digital filter. Further a hardware descriptive code (VHDL) is generated for the designed filter which then will be loaded on to the FPGA. The VHDL code is speed optimized. The VHDL code is simulated and synthesized in Xilinx ISE. Further the performance analysis is done on FPGA to determine the applicability of the filter.

Abstract:

Electrical discharge machining (EDM) is one of the non-traditional machining processes, based on thermo electric energy between the work piece and an electrode. In this process, the material removal is occurred electro thermally by a series of successive discrete discharges between electrode and the work piece. The parametric analysis of the EDM process by using different electrode shapes has been carried out. This Research discusses the performance of die sinking EDM due to the shape configuration of the electrode. The effect of electrode shapes configuration on the performance of die sinking electric discharge machine has been carried out. The optimization of the parameters of the EDM machining has been carried out by using the taguchi‟s method for design of experiments (DOE). In this research we have used taguchi‟s method for design of experiments with three input parameters and their three levels of experiments. The dielectric used is kerosene diluted with water. The objective of the analysis is to optimize the process parameters of EDM with the help of taguchi method and using Minitab software.

Abstract:

Curing is the process of maintaining proper moisture content particularly within 28 days to promote optimum cement hydration immediately after placement. Self-compacting concrete is made up of admixture i.e. superplasticizer. In recent years, self-compacting concrete (SCC) has gained wide use for placement in congested reinforced concrete structures with difficult casting conditions. Also various curing methods are adopted in the construction industry especially for vertical structures, inaccessible areas s.a. high rise buildings, water scarce areas etc. In such structures conventional curing is not practically possible in most of the cases. But we need efficient curing which improves the strength and durability of concrete. In the present work, comparison of compressive strength of normally cured SCC and SCC cured with self curing material i.e. wax based, white pigmented, membrane forming concrete curing compound has been done. This study is investigating that weather the use of self curing compound is economical or not in remote areas of water without compromising with the compressive strength of concrete.
