Engine performance and exhaust emission study on blends of biodiesel and petrodiesel
Presently diesel generation against consumption is seen as the problem for future. Therefore the alternative is required to be found out. Biodiesel is found the potential resource as an alternative to diesel. The present automobile industry which uses 100% diesel is to be replaced by the blend of diesel & biodiesel. The various biodiesel blends study is carried out & particularly for Palm-based biodiesel blends with petrodiesel is considered for the study. The present work is to study the engine performance & exhaust emission for optimum blend ratio of above-mentioned biodiesel petrodiesel blends. The experiments will be carried out & the result will be shown. The pure petrodiesel (100%) and blend ratio of 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, 30%and 35% will be taken for experiment. The literature says that the optimum blend ratio for biodiesel and petrodiesel is around 20%. The exhaust emission will also be studied. Care is taken during work, the existing engine should work with the suggested blend ratio and should give good engine performance and the exhaust emission should be minimum or within a tolerable limit.

To study the effects of manual hyperinflation and tracheal suctioning in mechanically ventilated patients with ventilator-associated pneumonia as compared to tracheal suction alone on static lung compliance (CL) and inspiratory airway resistance
Ventilator-associated pneumonia results from bacterial colonization of the aerodigestive tract or aspiration of contaminated secretions into the lower airways. As a consequence of infection of the lung parenchyma and alveolitis, accumulation of inflammatory exudates and infiltration of airway mucosa can lead to unfavorable respiratory mechanics in ventilator-associated pneumonia. Tracheal suction is often employed by Physiotherapists in the management of mechanically ventilated patients with ventilator-associated pneumonia but this technique has the potential to increase respiratory resistance. Manual hyperinflation is used by physiotherapists to improve lung volume and mobilise secretions and has been shown to increase lung compliance. Aims and Objectives: To demonstrate an additional mechanical benefit to the respiratory system when manual hyperinflation and suction techniques are combined, by comparing the application of manual hyperinflation and suction with suction alone on static lung compliance (CL) and Inspiratory resistance (RAW) in mechanically ventilated patients with ventilator-associated pneumonia. Study Design: Thirty patients with ventilator-associated pneumonia were recruited and a Crossover study with Randomisation of sequences was done. Manual hyperinflation followed by suction (manual hyperinflation plus suction) and suction alone were applied consecutively, in random order, on two occasions, four hours apart. Respiratory variables, CL and RAW, were measured five times and the averaged value documented. Data were recorded before, immediately after, and 30 minutes after each intervention protocol. Results: CL increased by 4% and RAW decreased by 10%, up to 30 minutes after Manual hyperinflation plus suction, but not after suction alone. Conclusion: This study suggests that manual hyperinflation in conjunction with suction induces beneficial changes in respiratory mechanics in mechanically ventilated patients with ventilator-associated pneumonia.

Modified RSA algorithm with bit stuffing to enhance DNS security
We use the Internet every day. The Internet relies on its very foundations on DNS, the Domain Name System. DNS continues to be a nice target for hackers. The possibilities a hacker can expect should he succeed in taking over a server or simply use DNS implementation to reorientate traffic, are some of the things which make DNS a source of security issues. In the last many years, several security flaws have been discovered in the protocol and its specific implementations. DNS spoofing one of the major threat to DNS Server. DNS cache poisoning, also known as DNS spoofing, is a type of attack that exploits vulnerabilities in the domain name system (DNS) to divert Internet traffic away from legitimate servers and towards fake ones. In our work, we have developed a robust algorithm that is combination of (RSA + bit stuffing), i.e. RSA accounts for legacy of user by providing the Digital signature, while bit stuffing is used digesting the message so that it remain confidential for the intruders, if any changes persist (violation of integrity) destination can’t decipher the message with the help of public key of sender. So this way we can provide more robustness for DNS.

The growing menace of Cyber Crimes: An approach to tackle it
The world witnesses disruption of normal computer functions very often. These disruptions range from personal to business companies to government networks. In this research paper, an attempt has been made to discuss the problems arising out of various forms of cyber crimes, their definition, present laws about cyber crimes and the methodology adopted by cybercriminals. This paper shall also analyze growing use of technology in identity theft, hacking and its use by terrorist organizations. Statistical data is presented to explain how cyber crimes have increased over time and their cost implications. The purpose of this study is also to make the reader aware as to where we stand today in our fight against cybercriminals, what are the future trends and the commitment of various countries of the world for cybersecurity. Since it is being widely accepted that physical devices and human intervention have not proved to be sufficient for protecting cyberinfrastructure, there is a need for more sophisticated cyber defense system which is also robust and flexible. Computing methods using Artificial Intelligence tools have begun to play an important role in cybercrime detection and prevention and their application can be further extended to assist human intelligence in the fight against cyber crimes. This study shall evaluate the progress made till now in the fight against cyber crimes and discuss which Artificial Intelligence tools can be made use of in the fight against this menace.

Analysis and design of the seismic-resistant multistorey building with shear walls and raft foundation
The earthquakes occurring in different parts of the world including Nepal and India have caused damage to structures, properties, and loss of human lives.The recent high-intensity earthquake of magnitude in Gorkha, Nepal 7.8 on April 25, 2015, has caused damage to public buildings and loss of human lives.Thus, the necessary steps are to be taken to minimize the loss of life and property for planning and designing earthquake resistant structures following the seismic codal provisions as the earthquake cannot be prevented.Practical knowledge is an important and essential skill required by every engineer. For obtaining this skill, a multistorey building is analyzed and designed, located in Zone III with B+G+13 storeys with a 3-meter height for each storey having a car parking facility provided in the basement. The building has a shear wall around the lift pit. The structure is modelled and analyzed using STAAD.Pro V8i.Design of beam, column, slab, shear wall, and raft foundation by SAFE are done. The saving of time is the most important factor for the structural engineer as there is the tough competition in today’s rapidly urbanized market and to cope with the scarcity of land, an attempt is made here for the "ANALYSIS AND DESIGN OF SEISMIC RESISTANT MULTI STOREY BUILDING WITH SHEAR WALLS AND RAFT FOUNDATION" using STAAD.Pro.

Knowledge, attitude, and practice (KAP) of family planning among married women in Hapur, Uttar Pradesh
Economic status and overall progress of a nation depend on the quality of population and their lifestyle, education, financial condition, personal & professional success. India is a developing country with highly dense (1.3 billion) population with lots of setbacks. India with 2.5% of the world’s land surface area has to accommodate about 17% of the world population. Considering the magnitude of problem India as the pioneer in the whole world started National Family Planning Program 6 decades ago. Still, there is a big gap between target and achievement. In the year 2011, the couple protection rate was about 40% for India, which is still far behind to achieve the 60% couple protection rate goal. Since the inception of the program, several knowledge, attitude, and practice (KAP) studies have been conducted. This cross-sectional study was conducted in a semi-urban area of Hapur District in Uttar Pradesh. The study participants involved were 200 married women aged 15-45years. The Performa included details like socio-demographic features, questions related to knowledge, attitude, and practices (KAP) regarding contraceptive use. Though 91% women were aware of the existence of a contraceptive method, only 57% ever used one. The most commonly used contraceptive was condom (27%). The most common source of information on contraception was mass media, both printed and electronic. Reason for non-acceptance of family planning methods was fear of side effects, religious cause, and husband or family opposition. On the basis of observations of this study, it is concluded that education and contraceptive practices were directly related. Women empowerment through education, strengthening of health services & shift of couple counseling rather only women counseling will play a very important role in disseminating the information about the promotion of contraceptive practices and can overcome the knowledge/practice gap.
