Abstract:

Ageing car tyres are a hidden hazard and recipe for road accidents. Many vehicle users and their cohorts seem unconcerned and ignorant about tyre profile and its implications on human lives and livelihood. This study reviewed car users' and vulcanizers’ comprehension of basic arithmetic of vehicle tyre profile to instigate best practices as well as instil proper maintenance culture. Out of 307 participants, purposive and convenient sampling were employed to select 292 vehicle users and a snowball to contact 15 vulcanizers. Results after a short interview analysis revealed that car users are aware of tyre inflation pressure and could identify the rim diameter of car tyres. Meanwhile, a significant number of users couldn’t tell where to locate their vehicle tyre specification details on their cars and were also unable to interpret tyre profiles including; tyre life cycle, tyre blend, tyre speed rating and load index. Although the majority of the vehicle users carried spare tyres, most of them do not check the conditions of their spare tyres until they are in need. Responses from vulcanizers revealed that most vehicle users do not bother about tyre expiry dates but rather prefer tyre fixing to tyre replacements. It is recommended that the Leaders of Transport Unions of commercial vehicles need to ensure proper load weight of vehicles before setting off from their terminals. Drivers and Vehicle License Authority (DVLA) needs to ensure healthy tyre condition before issuing roadworthy certificates. National Road Safety Authority (NRSA) must maximize sensitization campaigns towards proper tyre maintenance practices to reduce tyre failure accidents.

THERMAL EFFECT ON BUBBLE RISE – AN EXPERIMENTAL STUDY

Abstract:

This paper presents the findings of an experimental study on the effect of temperature gradient on bubble rise velocity in water. At the bottom of the chamber holding water, a bubble (equivalent diameter, req 1 mm) is created and rises through it. At a height of 60 cm from the chamber's bottom, a high-speed camera (1000 fps, Kodak, Model 1000 HRC) is mounted with a 90 mm Macro lens. It is connected to a computer. For image capture and processing, the commercial tools Sigma Scan Pro 5.0 and Adobe Photoshop are used. The chamber can be heated with infrared light, resulting in a constant temperature gradient of 1.10C/cm between 30 and 40 cm above the needle in the water. Bubble rise characteristics, such as bubble size and rise velocity, are determined both in the presence and absence of a temperature gradient. The current study clearly demonstrates that this gradient causes an additional increase in terminal rise velocity.

Abstract:

In this study, we have proposed a fuzzy inventory model for deteriorating items with exponential price and time-dependent demand under inflation. Shortages are allowed partially with the rate of exponential duration of waiting time up to the arrival of the next lot.  The inventory parameters are considered as fuzzy valued. The corresponding problem has been formulated as a nonlinearly constrained optimization problem. A numerical example has been considered to illustrate the model and the significant features of the results are discussed. Finally, based on these examples, sensitivity analyses have been studied by taking one parameter at a time keeping the other parameters as same.

Abstract:

      Prolonged use of domestic and industrial applications gives rise to high heat generation in the systems. Smart materials like nanofluids can be useful to overcome this modern-day problem. In this study we are reporting the water-based nanofluids, to challenge this problem. Due to the availability of water in Bengal, the simplest solution for cooling a machine is to flow water surrounding it. The nanofluids we have synthesized are metallic nanoparticles dispersed in water, which is considered as base fluid. The heat capacity and thermal conductivity of the nanofluids were predicted by the equilibrium molecular dynamics (EMD) simulation. It is observed that dispersed nanoparticles help an enchantment in thermal-conductivity of the fluids whereas the heat capacity decreases by a small value. The low-cost sol-gel method was used to synthesize the Cu and Ag nanoparticles and later disperses the same in distilled water in suitable wt%. Nanofluids were subjected to ultrasonic studies around room temperature. The thermal conductivity of the used fluids is the function of the velocity values of ultrasonic wave propagation through the fluid system. The experimental measured thermal-conductivity values show an enhancement of about 30% in comparison to the base fluid water in ambient temperature.

Abstract:

In the present numerical study, we apply an ODE IVP to plasma drug concentrations for a one-compartment model in presence of drug infusion. Solution procedure is done in a Matlab environment. The outcome shows that the infusion rate at time t = 4 h is discontinuous but the corresponding plasma concentration-time profile looks smooth at that time.

Abstract:

The basic idea of a quadratic equation is one of the most important topics in algebra. The mathematical concept for the method of solution of a quadratic equation is dependent on the advancement of the theory of numbers. The author developed a new concept regarding the method of solution of the quadratic equation based on “Theory of Dynamics of Numbers”. The author determined the inherent nature of one unknown quantity (say x) from the quadratic expression ax2+bx+c of the quadratic equation ax2+bx+c=0 by keeping the structure of the second-degree expression intact and then finding the solution of the quadratic equation using the novel concept of the Theory of Dynamics of Numbers. The author solved any quadratic equation in one unknown number (say x) of the quadratic equation in the form of ax2+bx+c=0, whether the numerical value of the discriminant is b2-4ac≥0 or b2-4ac<0, is real numbers only without using any imaginary numbers. With these new inventive concepts, the author developed new theories in the theory of quadratic equation.
