An analysis is carried out to study the flow and heat transfer characteristics of MHD visco-elastic fluid flow over a stretching sheet with viscous dissipation. The governing partial differential equations are converted into ordinary differential equations by a similarity transformation. These equations are solved by a numerical method, Quasilinearization technique. The effects of various physical parameters such as Prandtl number, magnetic field, suction, visco-elasticity and viscous dissipation on flow and heat transfer are evaluated numerically and analyzed through graphs and tables.

Keywords: visco-elastic, stretching sheet, Magneto Hydrodynamic, boundary layer, heat transfer, viscous dissipation.

Thin reinforced concrete wall behavior subjected axially loading with an eccentricity can be accurately predicted using non-leaner analysis application program FEA modeling based on the experimental test. A numerical study was undertaken to verify the effectiveness of the Finite Element Analysis (FEA) in predicting the failure characteristics of thin reinforced concrete walls with openings. The existing experimental RC wall test results which were compression strength 47 MPa, height to thickness ratio 40, sectional area 25% opening at the center, and restrained top and bottom sides only were adopted to model numerically. The numerical model was constructed by the nonlinear analysis application program FEA produced by MIDAS-IT. The three-dimensional solid analysis considering concrete and reinforcement...........

Indian seismic code IS – 1893 (Part-1): 2016 provide guideline to calculate natural period of building with shear wall for static analysis. In the present paper, an attempt has been made to evaluate the natural period for regular building with shear wall and to develop a formula to calculate natural period of building with shear wall. In this work multi-storied RC frame symmetric building with different plan configuration, different storey height and different building height with different length of shear wall along with brick masonry infill panels has been considered. All the building have been analyzed and design as per Indian Codal Provision and Dynamic analysis has been performed using ETABS software and natural period of fundamental mode has been evaluated. Based on natural period results the new formula for calculating time period of building has been proposed by method of regression analysis using Microsoft-Excel.

Several billion tons of water is annually used as mixing, curing and cleaning around the world, in concrete industry. As there is scarcity of fresh drinkable water around the world; so there is a need to save fresh and potable water and hence possibilities of using seawater as mixing as well as curing water should be investigated seriously. Additionally, if use of seawater as concrete material is permitted, it is very convenient and economical in construction; especially in the coastal works. In this project, the effects of mixing and curing concrete with seawater on the compressive, tensile and flexural strengths and corrosion of concrete and reinforcements are experimented. M20 concrete is adopted for this study of concrete behavior and mix design is carried out accordingly. Concrete cubes, cylinders and beams of corresponding dimensions are casted out to investigate the above mentioned properties......

In this paper, a method of solving the fuzzy fractional assignment problems, where the cost of the objective function is expressed as triangular fuzzy number, is proposed. In the proposed method, the linear programming of fuzzy fractional assignment problem (FFAP) is transformed to a multi objective linear programming (MOLP) of assignment problem and resultant problem is converted to a linear programming problem, using Taylor's series method. An illustrative numerical example is given to justify the proposed theory.

As recorded in the past, the response of structuresthat are asymmetric when subjected to earthquake have depictedthat they are excessively vulnerable to edge deformations. Theinvestigation presented here examined how the installation ofsupplemental viscous dampers and magneto-rheological dampers controlled the largely prevalent deformations in G+3 storey, one-way asymmetric buildings.Torsional and Lateral displacement for controlled anduncontrolled system were obtained along with the torsional and lateral acceleration response and it was concluded thatlinear viscous dampers are less effective than the non-linear viscous as well asmagneto-rheological dampers.

A rapid development has been noticed from the search-dependent optimization approaches for distribution systems owing to spectacular distinction in FC's and its influences in recent years. The major intention of ELD issue is to allocate the control parameters of power system for distributing the entire load to attain maximum profits while gratifying the entire inequality and equality measures. For attaining best possible result of practical ELD issue, the practical function of the ELD issue must regard VPE and so on. Accordingly, this survey intends to review various topics to solve ELD issues in distribution network. Accordingly, the algorithmic classification for the surveyed papers was analyzed and described. In addition, the performance measures and the maximum performance achievements are also analyzed and demonstrated in this survey. The renewable energy sources deployed in each reviewed papers are also portrayed. Finally, the research issues of the suggested model are also discussed briefly.

Network congestion is defined as "the situation in which an increase in data transmissions results in a proportionately smaller (or even a reduction in) throughput". While there is congestion in the network, if one attempts to send huge data; only less data will be actually delivered effectively. CM is the action of controlling the power system to examine its transfer operations, which is perhaps the basic transmission management crisis nowadays. Accordingly, this survey intends to review various topics to solve CM issues in the network. In addition, the algorithmic classification for the surveyed papers are analyzed and described. Also, the performance measures and the maximum performance achievements are analyzed and illustrated in this survey. Finally, the research issues of the suggested model are also discussed briefly.
