In the era of the world, English is the much more broadly spoken language. It is spoken the English language almost surrounding world and has achieved in the minds and hearts of people especially from the rural students want to learn the second language in any situation or condition. Communication is one of the media for expressing our ideas, views, thought, feelings and emotions to each other. Every parent wants their children to learn English for which they are ready to spend any amount of physical labor and financial assistance. The daily wager expected to his children to study in the English medium schools for the development of communication. This awareness of communication has come among the rural people. English has become common and official language of the people today in the computer world in India which is multi-cultural country. English is introduced here at the primary level and secondary level and its inclusion continue until the tertiary level of education. Most of the students of the primary schools in rural areas are weak in the English language due to unskilled and untrained teachers who are familiar to the modern methods and availability of lack of materials for teaching in the classroom. People and students from rural areas who are want to acquire the speaking skills of English by any sources, coaching centers, spoken English classes etc. It is must need of the hour for rural students to learn the importance of speaking skills of English today.

10. A case study on grid integrated solar roof-top PV system
With advances in technology and industrial development, there is an increase in the consumption of electrical energy. However, the rapid exhaustion of conventional fossil fuels to produce electrical energy has provoked the engineers to find sustainable means of electrical energy generation from renewable resources. Amongst all renewable resources, solar energy produces promising results. There has been a lot of research and development in the field of Solar PV systems. Hence, with recent advancements in solar technologies, the PV systems have become more efficient and cost-effective. There is a little awareness and knowledge about the implementation of Solar PV system amongst common people. The other main issue is the space required for installing solar panels for power generation. In this paper, efforts are made to create awareness and encourage people to adopt and implement solar roof-top PV system for sustainability and a better environment. This paper involves a case study on installation of roof-top solar PV system at RRR Laboratories Pvt. Ltd. Turbhe, Navi Mumbai. The paper provides a feasibility analysis in terms of both economics and design complexities using a Top-Down approach. The analysis suggests that grid integrated roof-top system is a more viable solution for city areas where available open space for the solar panels is the main constraint. If grid integrated PV systems are implemented on open rooftops in cities, it would become versatile utilization of roof-tops which otherwise would have been left unutilized. So, the study concludes that a simple grid-tied solar PV system is feasible to be implemented on any roof-top area in cities at an individual level with affordable expenses. Thus, popularizing the implementation of grid-integrated solar roof-top PV system makes productive utilization of roof-tops as well as contributes substantially towards sustainability and environment.

13. Finding the optimal cost for transportation of plywood and hardware in Mumbai
Transportation of raw materials within a city can be quite a daunting task. Various problems such as traffic conditions, temporary shut-down of roads, parking issues and low quantity of good increases the per unit cost of transportation and make it infeasible for the seller. The objective of this study is to provide a cost-minimizing solution by using the Modified Distribution Method on the transportation model. We quantify our hypothesis by using real life data of transportation of raw materials used by a furniture making firm based in Mumbai. Furthermore, additional restrictions were added to our model to reflect the real life problems that arise in transporting raw materials. The results showed that we were able to reduce the cost of transportation from ₹2,17,26,000 (quoted by the owner of the firm) to ₹1,98,50,000 (calculated using MODI method) by using the scientific method of the transportation problem. But when applying conditions like traffic movement & congestions and parking difficulties we notice an increase in cost. In conclusion, applying the Modified Distribution can help a firm manage its costs well and quote the appropriate price so as to not be in a loss-making solution.

18. Perceptions of youth involvement in public policy making: A case study of selected areas within the La Nkwantanang Municipal Assembly, Ghana
The perceptions of youth involvement in public policymaking have been subject of discussion amongst various scholars around the globe. With youth confirming their displeasure in many ways (such as demonstrations and violent acts) about the failure of the communist authorities in involving them in policies that affect their present and future life, this study sought to investigate their perceptions of involvement in policymaking. In addressing these concerns the youth involvement model and political system model as well as objectives such as examining the relationship, effect and significance between youth involvement and public policy making in three communities within the La-Nkwantanang municipal assembly (the suburb of Accra Ghana) were included. Using the regression model with a quantitative approach as well as a random sampling technique to administering an adapted structured questionnaire to 120 sampled youth, results indicated that factors of youth involvement positively relate to public policy-making while views gathered indicated that youth-adult partnership factor relates more and should be a better approach to enhancing public policymaking. Secondly, results indicated that perceptions of youth involvement have a positive effect on public policy making. Lastly, perceptions of youth involvement were significant to public policymaking. It was however recommended that synergizing youth involvement factors such as community readiness, youth-adult partnership, youth leadership, and decision making as well as youth diversity will go along the way to limit the challenges that come with including the youth in public policy reforms.

20. Parameter tuning in firefly algorithm
Optimization means to find the best solution for any situation under given constraints. In today’s era, the problems are huge and complex. Nature always finds a way to deal with such problems efficiently in an optimized way. The computational algorithms which are inspired by nature to find solutions for such problems are called Nature inspired optimization algorithms. There are various nature-inspired algorithms and Firefly Algorithm (FA) is one among them. FA is a bio-inspired population-based stochastic algorithm which imitates the behavior of fireflies shown when they attract other fireflies. FA is an algorithm with many parameters that affect the accuracy and the convergence speed. A number of variants and parameter tuning related papers are available in the literature. In this paper first an introduction of Optimization, specifically Nature inspired optimization has been provided. Then, a detailed discussion about FA has been given. It is followed by a brief literature survey in which the work has been compared in tabular form to provide the readers with a better understanding. Further, we intend to improve the accuracy of Firefly algorithm by tuning the parameters namely α and βmin. A range of values of the above parameters is tested by forming their combinations to find out the mutual effect of both these parameters. These values are tested on a test bed of nine benchmark functions. The result is a combination of optimized values of both the parameters. The results are quite clear and provide a pair of optimized values of both the parameters.

25. A review at storage systems and pipelining
An external storage device is a device that contains all the addressable storage that is not inside computers main memory. It has types including removable and non-removable, permanent and non-permanent. External storage is often used to store information that's accessed less frequently by applications running on a desktop, laptop, server or mobile devices, such as an Android or iOS smartphone or tablet. When moving large amounts of data to the cloud, providers will usually use external storage devices in a practice commonly referred to as cloud seeding. Pipelining is an implementation technique in which more than one instruction is overlapped in execution. The computer pipeline is divided into stages. Each stage performs and finishes a part of an instruction in parallel. The stages are related and connected one to the next to form a pipe - instructions enter at one end, progress through the stages, and exit at the other end. Pipelining does not decrease the time span essential for individual instruction execution. Instead, it enhances instruction throughput. The throughput of the instruction pipeline is estimated and evaluated by how often an instruction exits the pipeline. Under these constraints, the progress rate from pipelining equals the number of pipe stages. Usually, the stages will not be accurately well balanced; besides, the pipelining itself involves some overlook on the inner aspect. Pipelining is usually viewed as reducing the C.P.I.

27. Review on relationship between compiler design and computer architecture
A compiler is a software structure which achieves the job of compiling and executing High-Level Language codes with the hardware computer architectures present. Previously, applications were often made through assembly language programming or for a specific kernel. Compiler technology and its influence on hardware performance were isolated from the architecture and its performance. However, now the compiler significantly affects the performance of a computer. Hence, understanding compiler technology is critical to the design and efficient implementation of an instruction set. Although the compilers are designed as per the language to be executed upon, their efficient functioning very much depends on the hardware used. A perfect balance between compilers and computer architectures, which varies according to the code to be executed, is the key to fruitful designing of highly efficient and effective computer systems. It is very imperative to study the relations of computer architecture and compiler from embedded microcontrollers to large-scale multiprocessor systems. There are some aspects to which the compiler and the computer architecture must agree, such as regularity, orthogonality, and compensability. So, the construction of a good compiler rests on both compiler design and computer architecture. There is an evident mutual dependency.

33. Educational aspects of internet
The Internet has played a prominent role in evolving student-teacher relationship. Of late, the relationship has been evolving over the WEB CLASS. With various advancements in the field of internet and the world wide web, the involvement and communication between students and teachers have increased. Unlike the traditional classrooms where learning takes place face-to-face, online classes rely on one or more electronic mediums. Such virtual classrooms are gaining prominence and popularity and are steadily turning into an inseparable part of our lives. This is because of the ease with which information can be shared over electronic media. With the ever-increasing number of internet points, e-learning is also gaining momentum. E-Learning has proved to be a boon for all students, especially for the ones who are disabled and find it cumbersome to move to a certain physical location. Such needs demand the development of as many open source software as possible for producing high-quality multimedia content for e-learning. Since e-learning is coming across as an evolving concept in today's instructive scenario, much focus has been diverted towards its various formats, for example, learning management systems (LMSs) and massive open online courses (MOOCs). The main aims of this paper are: (a) to get a glimpse of the history of e-learning, (b) to discuss the various applications of e-web classes, (c) to compare and contrast the various e-web classes available

34. A coordinated control scheme of PSS and FACTS devices for improving power system stability
Nowadays, the continuous growth in power demand leads to expansion of the Power System network which makes existing system more sensitive and prone to instability. An important issue associated with the stability of a multi-area power system is low-frequency electromechanical oscillations from the multi-machine system. Generally, Power System Stabilizer (PSS) are used to compensate low-frequency electromechanical oscillation of interconnected Power System, but local PSS does not have global observance and controllability of inter-area low-frequency oscillation because of a control signal of local PSS and generated a local signal. So next resolution is Flexible AC Transmission System (FACTS) device with supplementary controller, that are used for effective damping of low-frequency electromechanical oscillations of interconnected Power System and to improve Power System stability. This paper presents Coordination control of PSS and FACTS Devices to damp out low-frequency electromechanical oscillation. In this research study, we use different FACTS Devices like Static VAR Compensator (SVC), Static Synchronous Series Compensator (SSSC), Static Synchronous Compensator (STATCOM), and Unified Power Flow Compensator (UPFC) to damp out low frequency electromechanical oscillation from a Multi-machine Power System and improve the stability of Interconnected Power System. Analyzing result of all FACTS devices on simulation, we found that UPFC gives a better response. Due to re-activeness, FACTS device like UPFC are considered and assessed for their damping controller design. In this research, we studied the implementation of supplementary Power Oscillation Damping (POD) Controller to control UPFC. POD Controller are designed to improve the dynamic performance of interconnected Power System under the transient condition to stabilize Power System. Some simulation results are carried out on Kundur Two area Four Machine systems under small disturbances. From simulation result, it reveals that the proposed controller damp-out low-frequency electromechanical oscillations effectively to improve Power System stability under small disturbance.

37. A survey on diminishing schemes for visible light communication
In the visible light communication in which data is superimposed on light, the communication range is visible. In pulse position modulation, for instance, when one image utilizes four openings, quad data can be sent by turning on just a single space among the four openings and killing the other three openings. In this strategy, the brightness becoming ¼ and feels not flicker but rather darker than when it is always on. Then again, when-when inverted pulse position modulation in which these openings of ON and OFF are switched is utilized, since one space is OFF, and three openings are ON, the brightness becomes 3/4, which does not turn out to be too dark. In this paper, we analyzed a crossbreed adjustment that can change the brilliance other than 1/4(25%) or 3/4(75%) by joining these pulse position modulation and reversed heartbeat position modulation. Visible Light Communication (VLC) utilizing light discharging diodes (LEDs) is an innovation that gives a chance to rapid minimal effort remote correspondence, being an option for successful and effective correspondence that can adapt to the real fast remote administrations request. This paper focuses around darkening mechanism that can be implemented in VLC frameworks to save energy and give exact illumination control. The inspiration behind this control mechanism, decrease and flow difficulties in down to earth usage, driver hardware, ongoing advancement, and future prospects are additionally concisely introduced.

A Black hole is a region of space from which nothing, including light, can escape. According to the general theory of relativity, it is the result of the curving of space-time caused by being composed of dense mass. Around a black hole, there is a position of no return, called the event horizon. Stellar black holes are made when the center of the very big star falls in upon itself, or collapses. When this happens, it causes a supernova. A supernova is an exploding star that blasts part of the star into space. Scientists think supermassive black holes were made at the same time as the galaxy they are in. Around a black hole, there is a position of no return, called the event horizon. It is called “Black” because it absorbs all the light that hits it, reflecting nothing, just like a perfect black body in thermodynamics. The name also said to be taken from the black hole incidence happened in Calcutta. Under the theory of quantum mechanics black holes have a temperature and emit Hawking radiation, which makes them slowly get smaller.

60. Effect of waviness in the bearing on the life of rotating element
Rotating structures or more general structures with constant but otherwise arbitrary velocity are important elements of machinery as rotor shafts and blades of the propellers, helicopters or the wind turbines. Vibrations in such structures require special attention. The vibrations may cause a reduction in the life cycle of the rotating elements. But it must be noted that some vibration frequencies can be acceptable for the rotating element to sustain its life cycle. Sometimes, the vibrations may not have any impact on the life of the rotating element. That is the reason this study is undertaken. This project intends to study the impact of vibrations on the life cycle of the rotating elements when the vibrations are due to waviness in the bearing. One of the main objectives of the project is to study the frequency at which the elements can be rotated with waviness in the bearing without affecting the life cycle of the elements. In this project, the 3D model of the bearing and rotating elements is modeled in modeling software and analyzed in ANSYS. Then the vibration frequencies for which the rotating element will sustain its life is analyzed using Vibration and Fatigue analysis in ANSYS. Then for that frequency, an experimental analysis is conducted for evaluating the rpm of the rotating elements.

65. Study of different blind spot detection techniques
A blind spot in a vehicle is an area around the vehicle that cannot be directly observed by the driver while at the controls. Blind spots exist in a wide range of vehicles: aircraft, cars, motorboats, sailboats, and trucks. Other types of transport have no blind spots at all, such as bicycles, horses, and motorcycles. Blind spots represent an extreme danger for motorists, especially at highway speeds; each year, thousands of accidents happen when drivers change lanes and collide with other vehicles that were in their blind spots. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, blind spot-related accidents are responsible for more than 800,000 accidents and more than 300 fatalities each year. These accidents are especially difficult to avoid because even practicing defensive driving is not always enough to prevent them; you cannot react to a vehicle that you cannot see. Proper adjustment of mirrors and use of other technical solutions can eliminate or alleviate vehicle blind spots. The goal of this paper is to study different blind spot detection techniques and to have a comparison between them.

MRI is an acronym for Magnetic Resonance Imaging. MRI is used in radiology and it is one of the scanning technologies where magnetism, radio waves, and a computer are used to take the total image of the body structures. The chief advantage of the MRI is to give clear images of the soft-tissue structure where other imaging techniques fail to give without any effect to the patient.MRI is based on the interaction of magnetic properties of hydrogen with both a large external magnetic field and radio waves, which send signals to the body and then receive signals back. These returning signals are converted into images by a computer attached to the scanner. Imaging of any part of the body can be obtained in any plane. This Article gives a brief idea about the history, construction, working principle of MRI which includes Nuclear spin, Larmour,s frequency, T1 and T2 relaxation and T1 and T2 weighted images.

71. Study on effective utilization of waste materials in the construction of pavements
Research into new and innovative uses of waste material is continually advancing. Many highway agencies, a private organization, and individuals are in the process of a wide variety of studies and research projects concerning the feasibility, environmental suitability, and performance of using recycled products in highway construction. The amount of wastes has increased year by year and the disposal becomes a serious problem. Particularly, the recycling ratio of the plastic wastes in life and industry is very low and many of them have been reclaimed for the reason of unsuitable ones for incineration. It is necessary to utilize the wastes effectively with technical development in each field. Expansive soils are so widely spread that it becomes impossible to avoid them for highway construction to keep the network structure for mobility and accessibility. However, the roads constructed on expansive soils suffer extensive damage and distress resulting in large economic losses running to billions of dollars. As thermal power plants are spatially distributed all over the country, utilization of flyash from these plants for the road construction, not only helps to consume bulk quantities of fly ash solving its disposal problem to a certain extent but also to satisfy the construction requirements. Reinforcement of soils with synthetic fibers is potentially an effective Technique for increasing soil strength. In recent years, this technique has been suggested for a variety of geotechnical applications ranging from retaining structure and earth embankments to subgrade stabilization beneath footings and pavements. Research on a different type of reinforcement and materials has been conducted by several investigators. However, the amount of information available on randomly oriented fiber reinforcement is still limited. Here an attempt is made to the suitability of different types of waste plastics strips and waste tire rubber chips reinforcing with gravel and flash in flexible pavement system on expansive soil subgrade.

72. A study on strengthening of soil using stabilized flyash
In the present study, I tried to prove soil stabilization using stabilized flyash. for the stabilization of flyash, we need to improve the flash properties by adding some admixtures. in the present study, we are using lime and sodium silicate as additives to improve the soil properties. Individual geotechnical parameters like grain size distribution, liquid limit, OMC, MDD, Specific gravity and angle of internal friction of Fly ash were determined and then Fly ash was mixed with different proportions of lime (2-15%) and sodium silicate (1-4%). These mixes were tested to obtain the optimum percentage of lime and sodium silicate. The variation in shear parameters like cohesion and angle of shearing resistance was studied by conducting a direct shear test. All the tests were performed after a time period of 3hours starting from the completion of preparation of the sample. Each test was performed for the normal stresses of 0.5kg/cm2, 1kg/cm2, 1.5kg/cm2, 2kg/cm2 and 2.5 kg/cm2. The results are compiled in a graphical form to observe the trends for shear parameters. The results show remarkable improvement in strength characteristics for higher percentages of lime and sodium silicate. The Major challenge on behalf of engineers especially civil engineers is the disposal of industrial waste products and their storage. Nowadays most of the industries reusing the wastes in different areas like civil constructions, treatment of materials and others. This reuse of wastes is essential to overcome the hazardous effects of wastes on the environment. Fly Ash is one of the industrial wastes produced every year throughout the country. Fly ash is a fine powder obtained from burning of coal during the production of electricity. Disposal of Fly ash is a big problem, to minimize the disposal of Fly ash into large land, it was used as a construction material in civil engineering works like building materials embankments, and bricks making etc.

74. Encrypted data management with deduplication in cloud computing
Cloud computing plays an important role in supporting data storage, processing, and management in the Internet of Things (IoT). To preserve cloud data confidentiality and user privacy, cloud data are often stored in an encrypted form. However, duplicated data that are encrypted under different encryption schemes could be stored in the cloud, which greatly decreases the utilization rate of storage resources, especially for big data. Several data deduplication schemes have recently been proposed. However, most of them suffer from security weakness and lack of flexibility to support secure data access control. Therefore, few can be deployed in practice. This article proposes a scheme based on attribute-based encryption (ABE) to deduplicate encrypted data stored in the cloud while also supporting secure data access control. The authors evaluate the scheme's performance based on analysis and implementation. Results show the efficiency, effectiveness, and scalability of the scheme for potential practical deployment. To ensure data privacy, existing research proposes to outsource only encrypted data to CSPs. However, the same or different users could save duplicated data under different encryption schemes at the cloud. Existing solutions for deduplication are vulnerable to brute-force attacks2 and can’t flexibly support data access control and revocation (see the “Related Work in Data Deduplication” sidebar for a discussion of some other work in this area). Existing industrial solutions fail in encrypted data deduplication. A scheme based on attribute-based encryption (ABE) is proposed to deduplicate encrypted data stored in the cloud while at the same time supporting secure data access control. proposes to outsource only encrypted data to CSPs. However, the same or different users could save duplicated data under different encryption schemes at the cloud. Although cloud storage space is huge, this kind of duplication wastes networking resources, consumes excess power, and complicates data management. intra-user deduplication and interdeduplication.6 In their scheme, the ciphertext C of convergent encryption is further encrypted with a user key and transferred to the servers. However, it doesn’t deal with data sharing after deduplication among different users. Implementation is the stage of the project when the theoretical design is turned out into a working system. Thus it can be considered to be the most critical stage in achieving a successful new system and in giving the user, confidence that the new system will work and be effective. The implementation stage involves careful planning, investigation of the existing system and it’s constraints on implementation, designing of methods to achieve changeover and evaluation of changeover methods. In this project the following modules are used: i) Cloud Computing ii) Inter And Intra User iii) Deduplication. Various cloud service providers (CSPs) offer huge volumes of storage to maintain and manage IoT data, which can include videos, photos, and personal health records. These CSPs provide desirable service properties, such as scalability, elasticity, fault tolerance, and pay per use. Thus, cloud computing has become a promising service paradigm to support IoT applications and IoT system deployment. Thus, saving storage is becoming a crucial task for CSPs. Deduplication can achieve high space and cost savings, reducing up to 90 to 95 percent of storage needs for backup applications and up to 68 percent in standard file systems. Inter And Intra User:- At the same time, data owners want CSPs to protect their personal data from unauthorized access. CSPs should, therefore, perform access control based on the data owner’s expectations. In addition, data owners want to control not only data access but also its storage and usage. a data owner that stores its data at the CSP (we assume there’s only one data owner for one data M); and • data holders (ui, i = 1, . . . , n) that are eligible data users and could save the same data as the data owner at the CSP. That is, the same data, although in an encrypted form, is only saved once at the cloud but can be accessed by different users based on the data owners’ policies. Data-Deduplication:- Data deduplication should cooperate with data access control mechanisms. That is, the same data, although in an encrypted form, is only saved once at the cloud but can be accessed by different users based on the data owners’ policies. current industrial deduplication solutions can’t handle encrypted data. Existing solutions for deduplication are vulnerable to brute-force attacks and can’t flexibly support data access control and revocation (see the “Related Work in Data Deduplication” sidebar for a discussion of some other work in this area). Few existing schemes for cloud data access control support data deduplication simultaneously, and few can ensure flexibility and security with a sound performance for cloud data deduplication that data owners control directly. Algorithms:- Cyphertext Policy ABE (CP-ABE) or Key Policy ABE (KP-ABE):- Attribute-based encryption is a type of public-key encryption in which the secret key of a user and the ciphertext are dependent upon attributes (e.g. the country in which he lives, or the kind of subscription he has). In such a system, the decryption of a ciphertext is possible only if the set of attributes of the user key matches the attributes of the ciphertext. A crucial security aspect of Attribute-Based Encryption is collusion-resistance: An adversary that holds multiple keys should only be able to access data if at least one individual key grants access. Encryption Algorithm:- In cryptography, encryption is the process of encoding messages or information in such a way that only authorized parties can read it. Encryption does not of itself prevent interception but denies the message content to the interceptor. In an encryption scheme, the intended communication information or message, referred to as plaintext, is encrypted using an encryption algorithm, generating ciphertext that can only be read if decrypted. For technical reasons, an encryption scheme usually uses a pseudo-random encryption key generated by an algorithm Decryption. There are many modern key-based cryptographic techniques. These are divided into two classes: symmetric and asymmetric (also called public/private) key cryptography. In symmetric key cryptography, the same key is used for both encryption and decryption.

83. Design and analysis of hexagonal fin for air cooled engines
Major automobile engine components are subjected to wear and thermal stress due to high temperature during combustion. Fins are used to increase the heat transfer rate of an I.C. Engine. In an internal combustion engine, the chemical energy of the fuel is converted to thermal energy to give a mechanical work as output. There is a large amount of heat is liberated to the combustion of fuel in which only a few amounts of energy is converted into useful work (60%-80% approx.) and the remaining energy is wasted. This heat is first conducted to engine cylinder and dissipated to air through extended surface called fins. In an air-cooled engine, the low rate of heat transfer is the main problem. To avoid this, the engine's fins are modified by changing the geometry of the cooling fins. All materials are showing a linear distribution of temperature alongside the length of fins. Also, the hexagonal shape fins increase the heat flux by converting the fin geometry from a rectangular shape to hexagonal and thus reduce the wear of engine parts and knocking of the engine.

88. Analytical method development for combination pesticides of picloram and fluroxypyr by reverse phase High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC)
The herbicide is the part of the pesticide, these herbicide are normally used to control the weeds in the cultivation period. The quality of the herbicide has to be effective and the degradation should be fast. After the usage, the soil fertility has to be maintained without any environmental chain changes. There are many herbicides are available to control weeds or unwanted plants in the cultivation processes. Many of the herbicides are used to control the grass or very small plants, which has a very week in the structure. The Picloram herbicide used to control especially the plant which has strong stem and branches. The usage is unique and this herbicide has to be used carefully to maintain the required cultivated plants during the plantation or cultivation period. There are few herbicides are available to control wood plants. The specialty of the picloram herbicide will not have any action on the grass. Fluroxypyr is another molecule being used as a herbicide in the cultivation industry. The chemical nature of this molecule is similar to that of the picloram molecule. The Fluroxypyr is consisting of the pyridine molecule basically. Fluroxypyr has fluorine, chlorine, amine and an ether arrangement in its structure. This Fluroxypyr is used to control woody plant which has broadleaf. This molecule also has the electronegative structural annulments in it has more penetration power through roots of the plants. Mostly this Fluroxypyr is being used to control weeds in the place where the cultivations are normally carried out. These Picloram + Fluroxypyr molecules were separated through a mobile phase consisting of the mixture of acetonitrile and water (fortified with 0.5% of formic acid) in the ratio of 40:60 v/v. The separation was achieved through the Qualisil BDS C8 (250 x 4, 5μ) column with the flow rate as 1.5 ml/min with the detection at 254 nm. These method parameters were loaded in the Shimadzu HPLC (model: LC-2030). The LC solution Shimadzu software was used for all the calculations in this analytical method validation analysis. The results of the study showed that the proposed RP-HPLC method is simple, rapid, precise and accurate, which is useful for the identification and quantifications of these molecules interims of validation parameters viz., separation, system suitability, System Precision and linearity in a simple HPLC analysis.

89. Positioning errors in digital panoramic radiographs- A retrospective analysis
Objectives of this paper are to analyze the most prevalent positioning errors in panoramic radiographs. 560 OPG taken from January 2016 - January 2017 in the department of maxillofacial radiology were assessed by two maxillofacial radiologists for positional errors. All radiographs were viewed on a computer monitor using the OHP sheet to demarcate the 6 zones. Results 74 radiographs (11.97%) were error-free and 486 radiographs (88.13%) were with errors. The radiographs with single positional error were 423 (84.3%). The radiographs with 2 positional errors were 57(9.89%). The radiographs with 3 positional errors were 6 (1.04%). The outcome of the analysis reveals that the percentage of positioning errors in panoramic radiographs is fairly high reducing its diagnostic value. Technicians are made aware of the errors and are instructed to recheck the patient position before taking radiographs. A similar audit will be repeated on a regular basis to check the change in the prevalence of positional errors.

99. Center pivot and lateral move irrigation system
Our country India is an agricultural country. About 70% of the total population of India is, directly and indirectly, depend upon agriculture of or their livelihood and other similar needs. The tremendously increasing population of our country has put an extraordinary stress on the farming sector. The climatic conditions of South Asia are dependent upon Monsoon and our country is under the full influence of it. Therefore, availability of water to crops at the time of requirement is an indispensable thing to get maximum production of crops to meet the food production target of the nation. At this stage, it becomes unrealistic to depend solely on the natural source of water i.e rain. Hence at that time, artificial irrigation comes to the scenario. Presently in India, Drip & Sprinkler irrigation are being practiced. This method represents one of such modern method of irrigation which has yet to fetch an attention of Indian farmers. The Centre Pivot method of irrigation is a unique methodology to irrigate crops in the circular pattern. This method may also refer as overhead sprinkler irrigation, waterwheel irrigation or circle irrigation.

101. Heat transfer through fabricated coil type shell in tube heat exchanger
Heat transfer enhancement due to the helically coiled heat exchanger is a burning topic in the field of research. But so far, there is no experimental or theoretical analysis of a helically coiled heat exchanger considering fluid-to-fluid heat transfer published, hence intending our work on this subject by using Methanol in water solution as a cold fluid. Methanol (also known as methyl alcohol, carbonyl, wood alcohol, wood naphtha or wood spirits) is a chemical compound with chemical formula CH3OH. It is the simplest alcohol and is a light, volatile, colorless, flammable, poisonous liquid with a distinctive odor that is somewhat milder and sweeter than ethanol (ethyl alcohol). At room temperature, it is a polar solvent and is used as antifreeze, solvent, and as a denaturant for ethyl alcohol. The Methanol, when prepared a solution with water, can be used as a coolant in the Heat Exchanger ( Helically Coiled Heat Exchanger in our case) to take advantage of their improved heat transfer properties which would result in enhanced heat transfer in the helical coil heat exchanger. For this purpose, a solution was prepared with varying proportion of Methanol in water. We used four concentrations of 5%, 10%, 15% and 20% of methanol by volume in 5 liters of water. As Water is Polar and Methanol as well. So, when we put methanol in water it gets dissolved and producing intermolecular forces i.e. hydrogen bonding. Various properties such as pH, Electrical Conductivity, Thermal Conductivity, boiling point etc. were tested.

102. Four way cutting operation in hacksaw machine
As we know that in large manufacturing industries, the cutting operation is very required for raw material, for this purpose they use conventional hacksaw machine for cutting operation. In that type of machine single piece can cut at a time by using an electric motor. Also, one labor utilizes for same. So it is time-consuming and comparatively costly. Therefore we have manufactured a four-way hack-saw machine which is used for cutting job simultaneously, this four-way hack-saw machine uses single motor four cutting job at the same time while in conventional hack-saw machine single motor is used for cutting one job only. Conversion of rotary motion of dc motor into reciprocating motion is obtained by using the eccentric cam. By making such type of machine, cutting operation time as well as labor working time can be reduced. Since such a hack-saw machine gives more productivity than a conventional cutting hack-saw machine, it can be used in manufacturing industries where automation is required. It can be also used in industries where labor availability is less. In this present work, we manufactured a model of four-way hacksaw machine, so we use light duty of structural parts and crank mechanism, a capacity of an electric motor is also very low. But in future, if we want to use such type of machine in industry, we can manufacture it by using heavy duty of body structure and all other required parts.
