An integrated subsystem for basement flood detection

Disaster Management accords with the response to the management of resources and property. It is the exigency in today’s world. Flooding has become a global pervasive in the past decades which hampers economic and social development. This project endeavors an integrated flood risk management system employing a magnetic reed switch interfaced with microprocessor Arduino UNO using microcontroller 328p. The build-out in the architecture of the buildings into apartments and complexes have made a requisite for basements. This device is hence installed in the parking lot and basement of apartments, malls and corporate buildings as the water reach a particular level the reed switch gets closed generating an alert.T he residents of the apartment or the authorities of the building get an SMS through GSM module followed by an alarm. Now once excess water starts accumulating, water suction motor is used to remove water to prevent the rapid rise of water. Thus the reed switch is interfaced with Arduino for flood detection and the rising water level in the basement of buildings and alert people for easy evacuation. The comparison of the reed switch and the previously used sensors is done and the results are obtained.

Health scenario of Assam: A study

NRHM is a crucial health initiative taken by the government to improve the health of the rural masses with the special attention to the disadvantaged groups including women and children. In this developing country with illiteracy, poverty, disparity, malnutrition etc, among the rural population, the mission aimed to have dramatic changes in the health status by providing affordable, accessible and available healthcare facility. Assam was embraced by the umbrella of the mission as one of the special focus states. Various initiatives and schemes have been undertaken under the mission to positively affect the health status of the state. An attempt is made in this paper to analyze the performance and effectiveness of the role played by the mission to meet its goals and to change the health scenario of the state. Relying on the available secondary data, the paper shows the improved health indicators and the health system during the period of NRHM. Also, an attempt is made to focus on the existing lacuna of the mission or its performance.

Experimental investigation of mechanical characterization and drilling of fabricated GFRP composites reinforced with Al2O3 micro particles

Nowadays composites became very popular due to its excellent physical and mechanical properties. Composites are widely used in all the industries like the construction sector, ships, aerospace, automobile etc. One of the most important properties of the composites is a higher strength to weight ratio because of which it is widely used in aerospace parts. Further to improve the properties of the composites microparticles could be added. In this thesis fabrication of glass fiber composites with microparticles in order to improve the mechanical properties such as tensile, flexural, impact strength and hardness by conducting tests such as tensile strength test, flexural strength, impact and micro Vickers hardness test, respectively. Machining of the composites has always been a complex problem in the case of glass fiber reinforced polymer matrix composites because of the laminar nature of the composites. In order to assemble the structural parts made by composites with the help of rivets and joints or nut-bolts, it is necessary to drill the composites to make the hole. During the exit and the entry of the drill bit in the hole, composites undergo severe damages in the topmost layer and bottom-most layer which in turn results in the delamination of the layers. So in this thesis, the drilling process parameters like speed, feed and the weight percentage of alumina microparticles were optimized in order optimize the output parameters like thrust force and delamination factor of the composites. The optimization of the parameters was done according to response surface methodology concept. The optimum values of input parameters are 1213 rpm speed, 0.16 mm/rev feed and 5.2 % wt. % of alumina microparticles. The corresponding optimal parameters for these parameters are 179.4 N thrust force, entry delamination factor 1.12 and exit delamination factor 1.17 with the desirability of 0.838.

A review on Diabetes Mellitus with their types, complications, treatment, and research approach

This paper has presented about Diabetes Mellitus and its types. It also discussed cure and treatment of diabetes, and complications which are linked to badly controlled diabetes. It is a common misconception among the people that diabetes is not a serious disease, but in reality, it affects overall life expectancy. In recent years, many types of research in the field of Biomedical describe the effect of Diabetes, and due to this disease life rate decreases. Diabetes is a group of metabolic disease in which a person has high blood glucose over a long period of time, because of inadequate production of insulin hormone from the pancreas. Many of the complications are arises due to badly controlled diabetes so better and proper cure is very necessary. Nowadays many researcher and scientist are working to find the best technique for controlling this disease and this may be helpful for better treatment for the diabetes mellitus in the future.

Management of occupational stress: A study of employees dealing with customers in public and private sector banks

Workplace stress is not a disease. Workers’ responses to stressors may be positive or negative depending upon the type of demands placed on them, the amount of control they have over the situation, the amount of support they receive and the individual response of the person. In most of the cases, people adjust to stress and are able to continue to perform their normal work duties

Development and Validation of Stability-indicating method for the determination of Pregabalin by RP-HPLC

Pregabalin is an anticonvulsant drug used for neuropathic pain. Pregabalin binds to the alpha-2-delta subunit of the voltage-gated calcium channel in the central nervous system. The aim of the present study was to develop the stability indicating, highly accurate precise and linear method for a related substance of the Pregabalin through the reverse phase HPLC and to validate as per the current ICH guideline. The optimize method uses a reverse phase column, Inertsil ODS 3V (250 mm × 4.6 mm, 5µ), mobile Phase of Di-ammonium hydrogen phosphate buffer (6.5 ± 0.05) and Acetonitrile through gradient flow rate of 0.8 ml/min. Keeping the column at temperature 25°C and using the sample amount 20 µL and detected all the impurities at 210 nm by the UV detector. In the developed method, elution of Pregabalin was at 11.5 min and all the eluted impurities were well separated and met the system suitability criteria. The precision is exemplified by a relative standard deviation of 1.4%. Method percentage mean recoveries of all the impurities are within the range (90.0% to 115.0%) as per the protocol. The method was found to be robust. Linearity coefficient for all Impurities was more than 0.999. The LOD obtained was 0.004% and LOQ is 0.012%. Stability-indicating forced degradation established studies to show results that there was no interference of any degraded products or external environment. A new highly accurate, precise and stability indicating method was developed for a related substance of Pregabalin with all the impurities well separate from the degradation product of Pregabalin.
