 Abstract

The usefulness of glass fiber reinforced concrete (GFRC) in various civil engineering applications is indisputable. Fiber-reinforced concrete has so far been successfully used in slabs on grade, architectural panels, precast products, offshore structures, structures in seismic regions, thin and thick repairs, crash barriers, footings, hydraulic structures, and many other applications. Glass Fiber Reinforced Concrete (GFRC) is gaining attention as an effective way to improve the performance of concrete. Fibers are currently being specified in tunneling, bridge decks, pavements, loading docks, thin unbounded overlays, concrete pads, and concretes slabs. These applications of fiber reinforced concrete are becoming increasingly popular and are exhibiting excellent performance. Glass Fiber-reinforced concrete (GFRC) is concrete containing fibrous material which increases its structural integrity. It contains short discrete fibers that are uniformly distributed and randomly oriented. Fibers include steel fibers, glass fibers, synthetic fibers and natural fibers. This study presents an understanding of the strength of fiber-reinforced concrete. Mechanical properties and durability of fiber reinforced concrete.

 Abstract

The main purpose of the present study is to find out the level of science achievement among higher secondary school students and compare achievement between; male and female; government, deficit and private schools. This study is very important because, the first National Achievement Survey which was conducted by NCERT in 2015 reported that the average performance of class X students in the State was significantly lower than the National average in Science subject and stated that the need for improvement of 64.8 % in the said subject. Further, it was reported in the study of Regional Plan and Status of Science Education in Schools in North Eastern Region (NER, 2016-17) by NEDFi with IIT Guwahati & Homi Bhabha Centre for Science education, TIFR, Mumbai that the performance of students in Science in the NE region was a cause for concern and the State scored lower than the regional average. Achievement test in Science developed and standardized by Dr SC Gakhar and Dr Rajnish was employed and distributed to 298 students from the government, deficit and private schools. Primary and secondary data were analyzed by using SPSS Statistics for Windows, Version 17.0. Level of achievement in Science among higher secondary students was very low, 95.64% fell under below average level. No significant difference in Science achievement was found between female and male students. Moreover, there was no significant difference between government and private school students, but there existed a significant difference between deficit and government as well as deficit and private schools. Students from deficit school outperformed both government and private schools. The author suggested that science teachers should use collaborative-learning activities and social modelling to promote students� interest, motivation, and achievement in science career. Learner-centered teaching-learning methodologies such as activity-based learning and laboratory experiments in Science should be employed to build students attitudes towards Science subject.

 Abstract

In several countries the quantity of electric power consumed by the street lighting is extremely high. Though, the influx duration of traffic and presence density at different positions and different locations on road varies depending upon time. If a system is developed such that mechanically increase and decrease the intensity of the lights for those locations of street wherever there's traffic and no traffic, such sort of system could save a large quantity of electricity. Additionally, it's going to conjointly cut back the pollution and increase the life period of time of lamps. In brief the system mechanically monitors and controls the road lights. This paper put forwards the intelligence management of the illumination of the streets, particularly at late night to optimize power consumption. At the moment the traditional street lights replaced with light-emitting diode lights. Street lights to scale back the facility consumption. Another advantage of light-emitting diode lights is that its intensity will be controlled simply. This helps to plan movement detection based control and management of street light. This paper presents a technique to manage the resource consumption of the road lights, it includes dominant the circuit of the road lights with microcontroller, sensors, associate degreed LDR combined with an IOT app that monitors app that monitors its energy consumption and conjointly providing securities through speech recognition system.

 Abstract

A pastor is a leader of Christian community or congregation who gives advice and counsel to people from the community or congregation and act as the leader of each member of that community. Being the leader of a community the person should meet the biblical characteristics and also have enough awareness about him in terms of abilities, the way of thinking, capabilities etc. Spiritual intelligence helps us to be creative, alter situation and modify rules. It gives a clear idea about how to play with the boundaries which we have. It is a higher dimension of intelligence that activates the qualities and capabilities of the authentic self (or the soul), in the form of wisdom, compassion, integrity, joy, love, creativity and peace. Metacognition refers to the process to plan, monitor and asses ones understanding and performance. The data was collected from 63 participants (31 Non-Ordinated Pastors and 32 Ordinated Pastors) across the state of Kerala. The Spiritual Intelligence Self- report inventory was developed by David B King in 2009 was used to assess the level of Spiritual Intelligence and the Metacognition inventory was developed by Dr. Punitha Govil in 1971 was used to assess the level of metacognition among the participants of the study. The data represented normal distribution, hence Independent Sample t test and Pearson Product Moment Correlation is used for statistical analysis. The result revealed that there is significant difference in the level of Spiritual intelligence among Non-Ordinated Pastors and Ordinated Pastors and there is no significant difference in the level of Metacognition among Non-Ordinated Pastors and Ordinated Pastors. The level of Spiritual Intelligence is positively correlated to the level of Metacognition among Non-Ordinated Pastors and Ordinated Pastors.

 Abstract

Amavata is one of the chronic diseases mainly affecting the joints with some other constitutional symptoms which make the life of the patient almost crippled and restrict the patient to the bed. It is seen most commonly in the patients due to their changing dietetic habits, social structure, environment and mental stress and strain. It is a Shula Pradhana Vyadhi, the intensity of the pain is high grade among the other diseases. It is not only a disorder of locomotor system but is a systemic disease and is named after its chief pathogenic constituents i.e. Ama and Vata. Rheumatoid Arthritis is a chronic multisystem disease of unknown cause and can be defined as a chronic polyarthritis affecting mainly the more peripheral joints, running a prolonged course with exacerbation and remission and accompanied by a general systemic disturbance. The disease is characterized by swelling of the synovial membrane and periarticular tissues, subchondral osteoporosis, erosion of cartilage and bone and wasting of the associated muscles. The management of rheumatoid arthritis is still in enigma for modern science. Chakrapani was the pioneer of laying down the principle and line of treatment of Amavata. The line of treatment laid down by Chakrapani denotes firstly the Pachan of Ama, then restoration of Agni and finally control of Vata Dosha. The objectives of this study are to understand the clinical presentation, the utility of herbo-mineral compounds in Amavata. 30 cases were selected through random sampling. The patients were treated with hydromineral compounds of Amrit Manjiri and the polyherbal formulation of Maharasnadi Kwath and for 30 days. Out of 30 patients 6.67% patients showed excellent and marked improvement, 36.67% patients showed moderate improvement and 50% patients showed mild improvement. The outcome revealed a better therapeutic efficacy of Amrit Manjiri and Maharasnadi Kwath in the symptom of Amavata and general functional capacity, walking time, grip strength and foot pressure of patients without any adverse effects.

 Abstract

�Unity in Diversity� is the identity of sovereign nation India. But the division of Varnas in India ruins this unity. Before this provision of reservation of EWS introduced, untouchability was prevalent in India, in which lower caste people were not given opportunities to participate in higher departments. This provision was introduced by the constituent assembly with an aim to protect the social, political, economic and educational Right of the minorities. The people of India have given the right to equality and thus, this step of the constituent assembly was necessary to be taken for the EWS. The state has taken several appropriate steps in this direction to secure the dignity of the EWS. This provision of reservation has shown it�s positive as well as the negative impact in several years. This paper aims at analyzing the constitutional aspect of the Reservation and its impact on the EWS and a positive aspect of it. In this research paper, the researcher had accumulated secondary information from Journals, Books etc., and the reference of these has been specified further.

 Abstract

Ikat is a dyeing technique wherein dye resistant bindings or substances resisting dye penetration are applied over yarns in pre-determined patterns and then the threads are dyed. The resulting creation after the weaving of the threads would surface in a lyrical colour extravaganza of finesse and precision. Pochampalli Ikat is mainly popularized in the 1800s. There are two types of ikat namely single ikat and double ikat. In single ikat both wrap or weft threads are dyed in pattern and the others are dyed in solid colour. In double ikat both wrap and weft threads are dyed in pattern. In one form or the other, ikat has been made a practical aspect of every culture. There are too many regions where the specific forms of this dye technique is to cover, but rest assured that you�ll find familiar ikat patterns practically everywhere you go in the world. The main objective is to make ikat fabric from recycled plastic bottles. All the waste and unused plastic bottles are recycled making them sustainable. Ten plastic bottles gives us one pound of polyester fibre. The yarn produced after recycling is sent to weavers for making ikat fabric. The savings made by utilizing low-cost raw materials for recycled products are usually completely eaten up by complex collection and preparation processes. The fabric obtained after weaving can be used to make furniture, rugs, curtains, bed sheets and plethora of things in interior architecture. They have been used in furnishing to provide warmth, comfort, protection and decoration. Fabrics are used a great deal in interiors according to style, theme and decor to dramatically alter the appearance of a bare room. Nevertheless, recycling can still generate attractive profits, as customers are increasingly willing to pay higher prices for sustainable and environmentally-friendly products.
