An Investigation on the Mechanical Properties of Die Cast Zn-Al Alloy Reinforced with Boron Carbide

The objective of the project is to develop Zn-Al alloy without reinforcement and as well as with reinforcements and to analyse the microstructure and find the mechanical properties such as hardness, tensile strength and %elongation of both the cases. Apart from above objective a study is to be conducted to understand the effect of reinforcement on mechanical properties like hardness, tensile strength and %elongation of Zn-Al alloy under different reinforcement compositions. These properties of Zn-Al alloy will be found out at different compositions of reinforcement by keeping the casting temperature constant at 780 ᵒ C

Impact and Non-implementation of CSR in Liquor Industries

This research focuses on implementation of Corporate Social Responsibility on liquor industries. There are many loopholes in its implementation as the sector has been a topic of debate in the past decades due to its bad impact on society and it is also been a cause of many social harm like drink and driving, accidents, domestic violence, vandalism etc. Various laws and amendments have been made which mandates industries to spend a specific amount on CSR activities, therefore companies are bound to adopt CSR. The question is whether companies which are involved with alcohol policy genuinely perform this social campaigns or they are trying to cope up their negative consequences, and using these social events so that they can boost up the sale of their products. There can be many reasons and benefits which the company can obtain from CSR programs such as good reputation, advantage over competing industries etc. but in what extent the society is getting advantages from this.

A Literature Review on Sentiment Analysis

Sentiment analysis or Opinion mining is one of the fastest growing fields with its demand and potential benefits increasing every day. With the onset of internet and modern technology there has been a vigorous growth in the amount of data. Each individual is able to express his/her own ideas freely on social media. All of this data can be analyzed and used in order to draw benefits and quality information. One such idea is sentiment analysis, here, the sentiment of the subject is considered and necessary information is drawn out whether it be a product review or his/her opinion on anything materialistic. A few of such applications of sentiment analysis and the method in which they are implemented are explained. Furthermore, the possibility of each of these works to effect any future work is considered and explained along with the analysis as to how the previous problems in the same field have been overcome.

Cloud Computing

In this Paper we discuss Security issues for Cloud Computing including storage security, data security, and network security and secure virtualization. Cloud computing is an architecture for providing computing service via the internet on demand and pay per use access to a pool of shared resources namely networks, storage, servers, services and applications. This research paper also analyzes the key research and challenges that presents in cloud computing and offers best practices to service providers as well as enterprises hoping to lever age cloud service to improve their bottom line in this severe economic climate.

Effectiveness of Play Therapy upon Anxiety among Hospitalised Children

Hospitalisation to any child is a very unpleasant and traumatic experience. Hospitalised children require more recreational play because, illness and hospitalisation constitute crisis in child’s life and since these situations are fraught with overwhelming stresses, children need to play out their fears and anxieties as a means of coping with these stresses. Hence in this study the investigator has tried to determine the effectiveness of play therapy upon anxiety among hospitalised children. Methods A true experimental pretest post test research design was used. The samples for the study were chosen by purposive sampling and the sample size was 30 in experimental group and 30 in control group. Tools such as Demographic variable proforma, Clinical variable proforma and State anxiety inventory scale were used to assess the anxiety of hospitalized children. Results The findings of the study revealed that in control group there was no significant difference in the mean and standard deviation of the anxiety levels (M =49.5, 48.4 & SD =8.30, 8.36) before and after play therapy. Whereas in experimental group significant difference in the mean and standard deviation of anxiety level (M=49, 42.76 & SD = 8.40, 8.29) was noted before and after play therapy at p<0.01.Overall study findings has identified the play therapy is effective in reducing the anxiety among hospitalized children.

Adhesion of Fouling Organisms and its Prevention Technique

Biofouling is the undesirable accumulation of microorganisms, plants, algae and animals on submerged structures especially ship hulls. Biofouling also occurs on the surface of living marine organisms. It is also found on membrane systems such as membrane bioreactors and reverse osmosis spiral wound membranes.The application of TBT and other heavy metal-based antifoulants has created another environmental problem.This review article summarizes the adhesion mechanisms of biofouling organism, type of biofoulers and technique to prevent artificial surfaces from marine fouling organisms. The antifouling methods based on traditional chemical methods, biological methods, and physical methods are discussed. The chemical methods include such as tributyltin self-polishing copolymer base coatings, it having good performance among the other coating but this coatings cause’s serious environmental problem. Hence, we focus on other antifouling coatings include coatings with base on copper acrylate, TBT free self-polishing co-polymer coating,Non-toxic antifouling Coating mostly silicon base chemistry,Biological antifouling methods including Enzymes that degrade adhesive used for settlement, Enzyme that disrupt the biofilm matrix, Enzyme that generate deterrents and biocides, Physical methods. In this review paper, most of the focused non-toxic antifouling technologies are discussed. It is concluded that Low Surface Energy Anti-fouling Coatings, Modified Organic Silicone Anti-fouling Coatings, Modified Organic Fluorine Anti-fouling Coatings, Fluorine Silicone Resin Anti-fouling Coatings because of their excellent effectiveness and low toxicity.
