1. Using Tessellation Art to Understand the Properties of Quadrilateral Theorems in Class 9

This study, conducted by Ms. Dipika Thakur and Ms. Shahina Shaikh at Adani Vidya Mandir Ahmedabad, integrates tessellation art into Class 9 quadrilateral theorem teaching to enhance conceptual understanding beyond rote-learning limitations. Employing a five-phase design—traditional teaching, pre-assessment, art-integrated teaching (tessellation art and load-bearing paper folding), post-assessment, and comparative analysis—the research evaluates art-based methods' impact on engagement and comprehension. Pre-tests revealed significant gaps in students' grasp of quadrilateral properties. The art-integrated phase used hands-on tessellation activities to visualise abstract concepts tangibly, boosting participation and enthusiasm. Post-tests, mirroring pre-test formats, showed marked improvements—e.g., students scoring 0.5-1 initially reached 9.5-10. Graphical comparisons and qualitative feedback from teachers/students highlighted trends in better understanding, accessibility, and enjoyment. In conclusion, tessellation art fosters deeper engagement and conceptual mastery, offering a transformative alternative to traditional geometry instruction with broader STEM education implications.

2. Comparative Compressive Strength of Concrete Masonry Blocks with Partial Replacement of Cement by Fly Ash and GGBS

The present study investigates the compressive strength performance of concrete masonry blocks produced with partial replacement of cement using fly ash and ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS). The motivation behind the research is twofold: the need to reduce cement consumption in construction and the necessity of utilizing industrial by-products in a sustainable manner. The work examines four replacement levels, namely 0%, 10%, 20%, and 30%, of cement by fly ash and GGBS. Concrete blocks were cast under controlled laboratory conditions, cured for 7, 14, and 28 days, and subjected to compressive strength testing. The experimental results demonstrated that replacement levels up to 20% generally maintain compressive strength comparable to conventional concrete blocks, while 30% replacement leads to a slight reduction in strength but improves long-term durability and environmental benefits. The study concludes that partial replacement of cement with fly ash and GGBS is a feasible strategy for sustainable block manufacturing without compromising essential strength requirements.

3. Flexible Concrete Blankets for Slope Stabilization and Erosion Control

Concrete blankets, also referred to as Geosynthetic Cementitious Composite Mats (GCCMs), are an innovative class of construction materials used for rapid slope protection, erosion control, and infrastructure lining. They consist of a dry concrete mix encapsulated between layers of geotextiles and fiber meshes that harden upon hydration. Unlike conventional rigid concrete systems, concrete blankets are flexible before setting and conform easily to irregular surfaces. This paper presents a comprehensive technical review of concrete blankets with emphasis on their composition, manufacturing concept, mechanical properties, durability, and field applications. It also discusses installation methodology, testing procedures, and performance evaluation based on experimental and field studies. Results reported in literature indicate compressive strengths of 30–45 MPa, high erosion resistance, and long-term durability under harsh environmental conditions. The study concludes that concrete blankets provide a sustainable, efficient, and cost-effective alternative for slope stabilization, especially in remote and difficult terrains.

6. Groundwater Recharge through Permeable Pavement

Rapid urbanization has led to increased impervious surfaces such as conventional concrete and asphalt pavements, which prevent natural infiltration of rainwater into the ground. This results in groundwater depletion, surface runoff, and urban flooding. Permeable pavement is an innovative and sustainable solution that allows rainwater to pass through its surface and infiltrate into the underlying soil layers, thereby recharging groundwater. This paper studies the concept, working mechanism, components, and benefits of groundwater recharge through permeable pavements. The study highlights how permeable pavements can reduce runoff, improve water quality, and support sustainable urban water management. A simple model is also proposed to demonstrate the working of permeable pavement systems. This paper presents a detailed study on the concept, components, and working mechanism of groundwater recharge through permeable pavements. The benefits of this system, including runoff reduction, water quality improvement, and sustainable urban water management, are discussed. Additionally, a simple physical model is proposed to demonstrate the functioning of permeable pavement systems for educational and practical understanding.

11. SentinelStore: A Zero-Knowledge, Fault-Tolerant Decentralized Storage Architecture Utilizing Shamir’s Secret Sharing and Kademlia DHT

As the digital ecosystem becomes increasingly reliant on centralized cloud infrastructure, the vulnerabilities associated with single points of failure, data sovereignty, and privacy intrusion have become critical bottlenecks. This paper introduces SentinelStore, a novel decentralized storage protocol designed to shift the trust boundary entirely to the client edge. Unlike traditional distributed systems that rely on full-file replication, SentinelStore implements a Zero-Knowledge Architecture by performing all cryptographic operations—key generation, authenticated encryption, and Shamir’s Secret Sharing (SSS)—directly within the user’s browser. This ensures that the storage network remains mathematically oblivious to the data it holds. We propose a hybrid storage model that utilizes a Kademlia-based Distributed Hash Table (DHT) for resilient shard distribution and a metadata coordinator for access control, without compromising the zero-trust principle. Furthermore, we introduce an innovative Dynamic Re-sharding Orchestration mechanism, allowing administrators to mathematically alter the fault-tolerance parameters of stored data without decrypting it or requiring client intervention. Experimental results demonstrate that this architecture achieves information-theoretic security and high availability with significantly lower storage overhead compared to traditional replication strategies.

12. Performance and Musical System in Prahllad Nataka Tradition

Prahllad Nataka is a devotional musico-dramatic tradition of southern Odisha that integrates ritual invocation, narrative dramaturgy, classical music, and folk performance practices into a unified theatrical structure. This paper examines the performance grammar, character system, spatial organization, musical architecture, and aesthetic principles that define the form. Beginning with the ritual Mangalacharana/Nandigana and guided by the Sutradhara, the performance unfolds through a carefully structured dramatic progression centered on the conflict between Hiranyakashipu and Prahllad, culminating in the climactic manifestation of Narasimha. The study analyzes the interplay between major and minor characters, the incorporation of comic and didactic interludes, and the integration of tribal and folk performance elements within a predominantly rāga-based musical framework. The repertoire employs thirty-four rāgas and six tālas, reflecting a confluence of Carnatic and Hindustani classical traditions within a regional devotional theatre context. The spatial configuration—featuring a tiered wooden stage and symbolic pillar—reinforces the ritual symbolism central to the narrative. Costume and make-up practices exhibit strong affinities with South Indian classical theatre traditions such as Kathakali and Therukoothu, while maintaining localized Odishan elements. The sacred Narasimha mask functions simultaneously as theatrical property and ritual icon. Despite reductions in performance duration due to modern socio-cultural shifts, Prahllad Nataka continues to preserve its devotional intensity and aesthetic integrity, representing a living synthesis of classical dramaturgical principles and community-based ritual theatre.

13. A Comprehensive Survey on Automated Concept Extraction and Prerequisite Dependency Detection in Educational Texts

Automated extraction of concepts and detection of dependencies are important for analyzing educational texts and supporting applications like curriculum development, learning path suggestions, and intelligent tutoring systems. The aim of these tasks is to automatically extract key domain concepts from educational materials and find dependencies or prerequisites between them. Several approaches are put forward in recent studies, such as weakly supervised methods based on semantic embeddings and clustering, distant supervision techniques that make use of domain-specific glossaries, and supervised transformer-based models. Supervised models frequently exhibit high accuracy, but they rely significantly on large, manually labeled datasets. On the other hand, weakly and distantly supervised approaches drastically lower annotation costs, but they also face issues with seed quality, dictionary coverage, and cross-domain applicability. In order to guide future work in automated educational concept analysis, this study offers a thorough overview of current methods, frequently used datasets, assessment metrics, and recognized limits. It also addresses important issues and unresolved research gaps.

14. Oily Wastewater Treatment using Adsorption Method

The rapid growth of industrialization has led to the generation of large quantities of oily wastewater containing free oil, dispersed oil, emulsified oil, and dissolved hydrocarbons. Major sources include petroleum refineries, automobile service stations, metal finishing industries, and food processing units. If discharged without adequate treatment, oily wastewater causes severe environmental pollution by forming surface films on water bodies, reducing oxygen transfer, and adversely affecting aquatic ecosystems. Conventional treatment methods such as gravity separation, chemical coagulation, flotation, and membrane filtration often exhibit limitations including high capital and operating costs, excessive sludge generation, and reduced efficiency in treating stable oil–water emulsions. This project presents a comprehensive study on the adsorption method as an effective and sustainable approach for oily wastewater treatment. The performance of commonly used adsorbents, including activated carbon and low-cost bio-adsorbents such as rice husk ash and sawdust, is reviewed and analyzed. The influence of critical operating parameters such as pH, contact time, adsorbent dosage, temperature, and initial oil concentration on adsorption efficiency is discussed. Reported experimental investigations demonstrate that adsorption can achieve oil and grease removal efficiencies ranging from 85% to 95% under optimized conditions. The findings highlight that adsorption is a technically feasible, economical, and environmentally friendly tertiary treatment method, making it suitable for integration into industrial wastewater treatment systems.

15. Triple Deck Express Way

Triple-deck expressways are a modern transportation concept developed to manage heavy traffic congestion in highly populated urban areas where expanding roads horizontally is difficult. This system includes three vertically arranged levels of transport corridors within the same route. These levels may accommodate high-speed vehicle lanes, metro or railway lines, and local service roads. By utilising vertical space efficiently, triple-deck expressways increase road capacity, decrease travel time, and make better use of limited land. They are typically built using reinforced or prestressed concrete along with steel composite structures, supported by advanced foundation and seismic-resistant designs. Although the initial construction cost is high, such expressways provide a sustainable and long-term solution for improving urban transportation systems.

16. Strategies to Increase the Adoption of Fintech among Retail Consumers Globally

This paper studies how the use of financial technology (fintech) can be increased among retail consumers across the world. It focuses on the role of financial literacy, differences in adoption between rural and urban areas, key reasons why people use fintech, and how these patterns vary across countries. Using survey data and global case studies, the paper finds that people with better financial and digital knowledge are more likely to use fintech services and continue using them over time. Financial literacy also helps build trust and confidence in digital financial products. The paper shows clear differences between rural and urban areas. Urban consumers adopt fintech faster due to better internet access, higher income levels, and greater exposure to digital services. In contrast, rural consumers often face challenges such as poor infrastructure, low digital skills, and a lack of trust. However, adoption in rural areas increases when fintech services are designed to meet local needs, such as using agent-based models, simple interfaces, and low-cost products. Global comparisons highlight that fintech adoption differs widely across countries depending on regulations, smartphone usage, and the strength of traditional banking systems. Based on these findings, the paper suggests strategies to increase adoption, including improving financial literacy, strengthening digital infrastructure, building consumer trust, and creating supportive regulations. Overall, the study provides practical recommendations for policymakers and fintech firms to promote wider and more inclusive use of fintech services.

17. Tradition and Transformation: Contemporary Challenges of Prahllad Nataka

Prahllad Nataka is a prominent devotional theatre tradition of southern Odisha, particularly concentrated in the undivided Ganjam district and adjoining regions of Andhra Pradesh. While its literary evolution reflects royal patronage and regional adaptation, the continuity and institutional consolidation of the form have been primarily sustained through the guru–shishya parampara (teacher–disciple tradition). This study examines how decentralized pedagogical networks of Gurus transformed Prahllad Nataka from a localized devotional performance into a structured regional theatre tradition. Drawing upon historical accounts, oral narratives, and field-based documentation of Guru lineages, the paper analyzes the processes of revival, reform, and standardization initiated during the early twentieth century. Particular attention is given to the role of reformers who systematized rāga–tāla patterns, regulated performance duration, refined costume codes, and preserved ritual discipline. The Guru in Prahllad Nataka functions not merely as an instructor but as director, composer, ritual custodian, and community leader, thereby embodying a multidimensional cultural authority. The study argues that the survival of Prahllad Nataka in the face of modernization, economic precarity, and institutional neglect is largely attributable to its embedded guru-centric transmission model. By foregrounding lineage as a living institution, the article highlights the significance of ritual pedagogy and community-based knowledge systems in sustaining traditional theatre forms in contemporary South Asia.

18. Effect of Silica Fume and Fly Ash on Strength Development of High Strength Concrete

High-strength concrete (HSC) is increasingly used in modern infrastructure due to its superior mechanical performance and durability. However, low water–binder ratios often reduce workability and affect durability. This study examines the influence of partial replacement of cement with silica fume and fly ash on the strength development and durability characteristics of high-strength concrete. M60 grade concrete was produced using Ordinary Portland Cement, with silica fume and fly ash added in equal proportions as supplementary cementitious materials. Cement replacement levels of 0%, 5%, 10%, 15%, and 20% were considered. Fresh concrete properties were evaluated using slump and compaction factor tests, while hardened concrete performance was assessed through compressive strength, flexural strength, split tensile strength, water absorption, sorptivity, and acid resistance tests. Results indicate that workability decreases with increasing replacement levels due to the high fineness of silica fume and fly ash. Mechanical strength properties improved significantly up to an optimum replacement level of 10%, beyond which strength reduced due to cement dilution. Durability tests showed a slight increase in water absorption and sorptivity at higher replacement levels, while acid resistance improved marginally at lower replacement levels. Overall, a combined replacement level of 10% silica fume and fly ash provides the best balance between strength enhancement and durability performance in high-strength concrete.
