Ultrasonic Studies in the Solutions of Levofloxacin Hemihydrate, Tacrolimus Monohydrate and Lisinopril Dihydrate in Methanol

Ultrasonic velocity, density, and viscosity have been measured experimentally in the solutions of hydrates in nonaqueous medium i.e., methanol at two temperatures 30 and 40oC. From the derived parameters like internal pressure, adiabatic compressibility, free volume etc., the solute-solvent and solute-solute interactions are estimated. Also in all the three hydrates in methanol, apparent molar volume, apparent molar compressibility are computed and the limiting / partial molar volumes and compressibilities have been obtained to reveal the nature of interactions. Jones – Dole constants also evaluated are of high value in estimating the nature of interactions. On the whole, the dominance of solute-solute interactions in the solutions of levofloxacin hemihydrate is observed. In the solutions of tacrolimus monohydrate, mostly solute-solute interactions and strong solute-solvent interactions in the solutions of lisinopril dihydrate are found to be dominant.

A Study on Properties of Lightweight Aggregates Produced from Pumice

The use of Lightweight concretes has gained acceptance and popularity worldwide in the recent years in the construction and development of both the infrastructure and residential buildings. The properties of volcanic pumice lightweight aggregates obtained from Debrezeit Bishoftu area in Ethiopia was experimentally investigated and this study presents the experimental results of the investigation. Three samples of the lightweight aggregates were investigated and their properties compared with those of the conventional normal aggregate. In this experimental investigation, the physical and mechanical properties of the aggregates were investigated.

IoT Based Low Cost Smart Locker Security System

This paper project the simple IoT based low-cost smart locker security system for domestic and office lockers, which is very useful to the public where they can safeguard their jewels, money and documents from the thieves when the owner is in/out station. The system alerts the owner of the smart locker by sending a message to the mobile. This security system is done using Arduino with GSM module and a biometric scanner.

Innovative Challenges & Problems of Library Automation in Uttarakhand & Delhi States- A Case Study

This article presents the study of library Automation problems faced by the library staff & users of Delhi and Uttarakhand based Libraries. For this purpose a well-structured questionnaire was designed to know the opinions, functions, activities, using of E-resources, behavior, reading habits, & other different activities done through the E-resources for the staff/users of libraries of UK & Delhi. The result of the survey provides useful information about the automation, information scene, and application, utilization & awareness of computer-based products & services in the performance of different library operation & function. It has added a new dimension to the library services like E-learning, E-library E-books, E-Journals, E-governance etc. There are many problems for maintenance and application of computer-based services to the users and staff of the library but the most of all users and staff are interesting to use Electronic resources day to day. This paper also reveals on the basis of the result of the survey, some suggestion has been forwarded for the effective use of a different Electronic mode of services and activities in present automated libraries environment in Uttarakhand and Delhi also.

Ethnobotanical Studies of Sacred Aegle marmelos Plant

Ethnobotany is a multidisciplinary science defined as the interaction between plants and people. The relationship between plants and human culture is not limited to the use of plants or food, clothing, and shelter but also includes their use of religious ceremonies, ornamentation and health care. In the past, ethnobotanical research was predominantly a survey of the plant used by villagers. A trained botanist identified the plants and recorded their uses. Sometimes an anthropologist was present to translate the disease descriptions, but rarely was a physician available to identify the disease. In this paper, we discussed 8 plants that selected from the total work associated with the topic.

Design of DC Architecture for Large-Scale Non-Grid-Connected Wind Power Generation System

In this paper, a dc architecture for large-scale non-grid-connected wind power generation system (WPGS) is presented. Unlike the existed wind farms, the proposed structure has the merits of eliminated reactive power, low power loss, long transfer distance, and etc. With the purpose to overcome the effects of integrating large wind power plants into utility systems, a creative concept of direct integration of high energy consumption industry (HECI) with large scale WPGS where the fluctuant power or whole power is consumed by the HECI. A three-phase full-bridge high power step-up dc/dc converter is adopted to meet the implementation of the system. Compared to the traditional single-phase full-bridge dc/dc converter, the presented converter features strong power management ability, high efficiency, and flexible transformer design. With proper control strategy, both of the voltage level before and after the dc transformer can be stabilized with a closed-loop converter located at the receiving end of the transmission system. Finally, a 200MW wind farm is simulated with the proposed dc architecture. The results verify the feasibility of the presented WPCS and system control method.
