Experimental Stress Analysis of Worm Gear using 3D Photo Elasticity and its Validation through Finite Element Analysis

one of the very important component of mechanical system involving motion transmission is gear assembly is Worm and pinion gear pairing is necessary to convert rotary motion into linear motion. The life of gear is important factor and the stresses developed on the tooth of the gear are one of the tedious task. Here, in the current work the stresses are analyzed using 3D photoelastic technique which is one of the promising techniques in stress analysis. The synthetic rubber material and the experimental stress analysis are conducted using polariscope in the laboratory. The result obtained shown promising approach to analyses the stresses in the 3D structure.

Identification of novel compounds to treat Alzheimer’s disease

Alzheimer’s disease or Alzheimer’s is a brain disorder characterized by progressive loss of neural functions and dementia in elderly people. It has perilous effects on memory and other cognitive activities. Apolipoprotein (APOE) is responsible for delivering cholesterol-rich lipoproteins to the bloodstream. The maintenance of optimum levels of cholesterol is absolutely necessary as an imbalance might lead to cardiovascular and neurological diseases. Out of the four alleles for the APOE gene, the main causative agent for the onset of Alzheimer’s is the e4 allele. APOE e4 allele leads to the production of amyloid plaques which further cause the accumulation of amyloid β peptides. The excess build-up of such toxic products leads to neuronal death giving rise to early symptoms of the disease. Our research mainly focuses on the identification of potential inhibitors against Sortilin (SORT1) and APOE receptors associated with Alzheimer’s. We have employed scientific software to identify the specific conformations of ligands that show the maximum interaction with the target compound and further analyzed these results by generating descriptors computationally for QSAR studies. The optimum model was generated with r2 = 0.794, s= 0.108. We have been able to select two ligands that can be used as potential drugs to treat Alzheimer’s.

Investigating Mahesh Dattani’s ‘On a Muggy Night in Mumbai’, through the Lens of R. Raj Rao: A Queer Study

This paper explores the interaction of Mahesh Dattani’s, ‘On a Muggy Night in Mumbai’ with R. Raj Rao’s ‘Criminal Love? Queer Theory, Culture and Politics in India’ under Queer Theory. Queer Theory studies homosexuality, incorporation of gender and sexuality in texts, along the history of queer writing. Mahesh Dattani’s play is the first play in Indian Theatre to have openly gay themes on stage. Since much of queer writing comes from the West, in order to facilitate a holistic understanding of the play in the context of the Indian subcontinent, this study is done from the lens of R. Raj Rao, who is himself a queer theorist from India. This paper focuses on the impact of homosociality, heteronormativity, and homophobia in the play and on the lives of gay people at large.

The impacts of COVID-19 on the investment behavior of entrepreneurs in India

Investment behavior is directly proportional to market stability. The onset of COVID-19 rattled the economy and as a result, there was a steep decline in the market stability. Various investors across the globe have reacted to this sudden change by adapting to the situation and making amendments to their investment strategies. Similarly, entrepreneurs have done the same by adopting a certain methodology to approach investment and make profits in the investment industry during the pandemic. The purpose of this paper is to analyze qualitative factors of investment behavior of entrepreneurs such as mental stress and underlying mentality to understand their investment strategies and provide a few solutions to decrease their chances of losses when they invest in any securities, especially during the pandemic. Primary data is used to conduct the research so that entrepreneurs can anonymously provide their insight on what they think are factors and purposes of investment for someone who has active business operations underway.

Rape: Legal changes towards justice for rape

The word “rape” has come from the Latin word “rapio” which means to “seize.” The crime of Rape is a major problem in India and this paper tries to highlight the same issue by giving an overview of sexual violence cases and the amendments brought to it. The criminal procedure code, Indian penal code, and Indian Evidence Act are the milestones discussed in this paper to give light on such sensitive topics of Rape in India. The stigma which exists in our society for a very long period of time is RAPE. The dictionary meaning of the word rape is “the ravishing or violation of a woman.” The woman who is the victim of the rape undergoes a traumatic situation and it is really very difficult for a woman to come out of this painful trauma. In India Rape is considered a cognizable offense. There are many various provisions under IPC (Indian Penal Code) rape is defined under article 375[1] of IPC, 1860. The definition of the crime is defined under this article and also it prescribes the punishment of rape. When a man penetrates or does a sexual activity or sexual intercourse with a woman without her consent, it will amount to rape. Here penetration means that even the slightest touch of the penis to the vagina amounts to rape, it cannot be said that rape is not committed if the hymen is ruptured. Under IPC it has been clearly mentioned that no person can disclose the name of the rape victim and if anybody does so, he will be punished with either description for a term that may extend to two years and shall also be liable for a fine. That person who commits such crimes is considered a psychologically sadistic person who commits such shameful crime of Rape. It is regarded as a threatening act towards a woman, it creates fear and humiliation in the mind of the victim. It is not an assault only against a woman but against her family and community as well. Sexual violence and domestic violence is not only a national problem but a global problem. Though many efforts need to be done to provide justice to all the victims of Rape. Legislative acts and judicial judgments can bring major changes in society. Investigative officers and health care departments play a vital role in such sensitive matters especially during criminal trials going against the prosecutor. Every state should try to bring positive changes towards providing justice to sexual assault victims, 164(A) CrPC, Section 164A (7) CrPC, section 39 CrPC, section 375 IPC or 376 IPC, 176 CrPC, Section (1A),

Thesis

Direct Control of Instantaneous Torque of Switched Reluctance Motor using ANFIS Controller in Generating mode and Motoring mode

A flexible combination of vehicle modes and modified collision-brake vehicles can be used to control the quality of equipment and various processes. This type of SRM electric drive is very different from traditional electric drives in both construction and control. The paper looks at the design features of the SRD brake control system. According to it is proposed a novel algorithm for direct control of rapid torque. Analysis of the dynamics of electric and mechanical driving during the transition of adjacent sections is analyzed. The effectiveness of the proposed control method is proven by the simulation model. In addition, factors affecting the accuracy of the high-speed control system are analyzed.
