Comparative Study of Electrical and Optical Characterization of Pure and Doped Poly Vinyl Alcohol Polymer Electrolytes

Novel proton conducting solid polymer electrolytes based on Poly Vinyl Alcohol (PVA) with Malonic acid and PVA with Succinic Acid as a dopant are prepared by solution cast technique with varying doping concentrations up to 40 at.%. The electrical conductivity and optical absorption of pure PVA and doped PVA electrolytes are investigated. DC conductivity behavior is studied in the range 303K to 373K. It is found that PVA: Malonic acid (70:30) & PVA: Succinic acid (70:30) electrolytes exhibited the maximum conductivity. The electrical conductivity initially increased with increasing dopant concentration and then showed a decrease beyond 30 at.% concentration. The increase in conductivity is attributed to the formation of charge transfer complexes while the decrease in concentrations above 30 at.% is due to segregation. Optical absorption studies are made in the wavelength range 200-600nm and the values of optical band gap (direct and indirect) are estimated. The results obtained are presented and discussed.

Evaluation of Antioxidant Activity of Phenol, Hibiscus Rosasinensis, Neem and Leaves Extract at Different Infusion Times

The present study reveals that the selected plants would exert several benefits by virtue of their antioxidant activity and could be harnessed as antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory and anti-corrosive agents. The aqueous and Ethanol crude extract of Neem, Hibiscus leaves and the mixture of both leaves' extract were screened for their free radical scavenging properties. Free radical scavenging activity was evaluated using DPPH, NO, FRAP and H2O2 free radicals. The aim of this study was to evaluate the antioxidant activity of Phenol, Flavonoids and Tannins content in Neem extract (Azadirachta Indica), Hibiscus leaves and the mixture of both leaves' extract at different infusion times and determination of the protective effect of metallic corrosion caused by soil microbes.

Novel Approach Of Diabetes Disease Classification By Support Vector Machine With RBF Kernel

Early diagnosis of any disease with less cost is always preferable. Diabetes is one such disease. It has become the fourth leading cause of death in developed countries and is also reaching epidemic proportions in many developing and newly industrialized nations. Diabetes leads to increase in the risks of developing kidney disease, blindness, nerve damage, blood vessel damage and heart disease also. In this research work, Support Vector Machine with RBF Kernel is used for finding out the classification accuracy of diabetes dataset. In the given method, the advance algorithm of SVM-RBF kernel is used; it contains some of the extended parameters for feature selection as well as the proposed correlation with SVM method obtains on UCI dataset. In this work, investigation is done on automatic approach to diagnose diabetes disease based on Support vector machine with RBF kernel and MLP (Multilayer perceptrons). The concept of data mining is used, in which the proposed SVM-RBF method obtains 88% accuracy on UCI diabetes dataset, which is better than other models.

Medical Tumour Image Segmentation by BAT Optimization

In the field of medical images, automatic segmentation of ROI region accuracy plays the most important role. For tumor segmentation, a network should be optimized with precise weights for the respective features. Till yet researchers used many features like intensity and area with various optimization techniques. Accuracy mostly depends upon the features. It is directly proportional to the number of features. Our proposed algorithm going to use energy feature like LESH with BAT colony optimization to enhances the optimization problem for weights. The proposed work will include all the features of time and spatial domain so is more sensitive to optimize the weights in spite of using only time domain features.

Study of Adsorption Impact of Wood Ash and Fly Ash on Spent Wash Quality for Irrigation Purpose

Adsorption treatment of distillery spent wash has great potential as a sustainable method as it is a low-cost method. The aim of this investigation is to study the treatment method for purification of distillery spent wash by using Fly ash and Wood ash. For this, the study comprising evaluation of reduction of various physical-chemical parameters (Color, Odor, pH, COD, TS, TDS, Ca, Mg, Na, and K) of distillery spent wash was checked by passing through the columns of Fly ash and Wood ash. The distillery effluent was acidic (pH 4.7) and dark brown in color which often cause psychological fear in farmers for utilization. Fly ash treatment of spent wash exhibited a good reduction in COD, TS, TDS, Mg, Na, Ca, after 72-hour treatment and increase in pH toward pH 7 followed by Fly ash + Wood ash (1:1).
