Boundary-layer behavior over a moving continuous solid surface is an important type of flow occurring in several engineering processes. Such processes include heat-treated materials travelling between a feed roll and a wind-up roll or materials manufactured by extrusion and many others. Since the pioneering work of Sakiadis [1], various aspects of the problem have been investigated by many authors. Crane [2], Gupta and Gupta [3] have analyzed the stretching problem with constant surface temperature, while Soundalgekar [4] investigated the Stokes problem for a viscoelastic fluid. This flow was examined by Siddappa and Khapate [5] for a special class of non-Newtonian fluids known as second-order fluids, which are viscoelastic in nature. Danberg and Fansler [6] studied the solution for the boundary layer flow past a wall that is stretched with a speed proportional to the distance along the wall........

A variety of Multi Attribute Decision Making (MADM) methods have been applied to the problem of network selection in heterogeneous wireless environment. As each kind of MADM approach has its own strong and weak points, it is quite difficult to ensure which MADM algorithm is more appropriate for network selection. From end user perspective, an algorithm that can improve selection accuracy ismore preferred, with minimal or no consideration towards prevalence and the methodology involved. So, in such a context, the effect of hybrid outranking MADM method on optimal network selection is studied in this article. The performance of the algorithm is tested in terms of Decision Making Accuracy.

Channel Estimation in Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) is difficult task in any wireless technology. In pilot based channel estimation, choice of estimators is important which involves trade-offs between complexity and accurate estimation. The Least Square (LS) has degrading performance due to AWGN noise, although it exhibits lower complexity. The LS estimation performance can be improved using Minimum Mean Square Error (MMSE) estimator however it executes large number of operations with increasing number of sub-carriers. In this paper, simplified low complexity MMSE estimators (SMMSE) are presented. Low complexity SMMSE estimators based on various decomposition techniques like Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) and QR Decomposition (QRD) are proposed. The complexity and Bit Error Rate performance of all estimators are presented to evaluate efficiency of estimators.

The present study is concerned with the possibility of plane wave propagation in a rotating magneto-thermoelastic and fire-reinforced material with voids. Following the concepts of Cowin and Nunziato [1] in handling void materials and of Green and Nagdhi [3, 4] in dealing with thermoelastic behavior of solids, governing equations of motion for the problem have been written in tensor notation. In the present discussion Cowin's linear theory applicable to elastic materials with voids and Green and Nagdhi's generalized thermoelastic models II and III have been used. The possible velocity of plane wave propagation has been obtained as the solution of an algebraic equation involving a determinant whose elements contain the material parameters, the direction of applied magnetic field, rotation and the direction of plane wave propagation. A particular case derived from our general discussion has been investigated in detail and the numerical results based on parameter values have been presented graphically.

In situ ground observation measurement of precipitation is difficult in vast and sparsely populated areas, with poorroad networks. The use of remote sensors installed in satellites can be useful to overcome this challenge and to improve the description of precipitation spatial variability. This paper examines the accuracy of TRMM 3B42 annual maximum daily precipitation estimates in Cabinda Province,a regionwhere ground monitoring networks are generally inadequate and where studies that evaluate the accuracy of remote sensing estimates are scarce. TRMM 3B42 estimates of annual maximum daily precipitation are compared toground observation data fromthree locations. As a direct comparison between the two datasets for a common specific period and sites is not possible, a statistical approach was adopted to test the hypothesis that the TRMM 3B42 estimates and the ground monitoring records exhibit similar statistical characteristics........

As one of the most successful applications of image analysis and understanding, face recognition has recently received significant attention, especially during the past several years. Even though current machine recognition systems have reached a certain level of maturity, their success is limited by the conditions imposed by many real applications. In other words, current systems are still far away from the capability of the human perception system. Existing methods for performing face recognition in the presence of blur are based on the convolution model and cannot handle non-uniform blurring situations that frequently arise from tilts and rotations in hand-held cameras. We propose a methodology for face recognition under non uniform motion blur and recognition of facial emotion.

During the last decades, environmental issues are receiving a continuously increasing amount of attention in society at large and within many markets and supply chains in particular implementation of environmental strategies in manufacturing companies. The manufacturing sector is responsible for about 33% of the primary energy use and for 38% of the CO2 emissions globally. the increasing price of energy and the current trend of sustainability have exerted new pressure on manufacturing enterprises that have to reduce energy consumption for both cost saving and environmental friendliness, as well as Life-Cycle Inventories initiatives. Energy efficiency becomes a driver for manufacturing industry. The objective of this research is to provide a clear relation between lean and sustainability by using concepts of lean and to demonstrate how lean concepts can be used into foundry industries. By secondary data relations between the categories (lean, sustainability, and foundry) was made where a conceptual model of "Lean Manufacturing‟ was provided. The concept was further supplemented by interviews.

Municipal solid waste management is a major problem faced by city planner all over the world. The main objective of this study to examine the current and environmental compliance status of the solid waste management system of Rohtak city. Total waste generation of the city is 189 MT/day and per capita, waste generation is 0.4 Kg/person. For proper management whole city is divided into six zones. Among which zone five and six covers surrounding nine villages. The present service area covered by the bins are less than 50 percent. The chemical characteristics of solid waste at dumpsite are as follows: moisture (33.72%), Bulk density (0.32 gm/cc), Dry density (0.24 gm/cc), C/N Ratio (36.6), and CV (816 Cal/Kg). The C/N ratio and moisture content of the municipal waste of Rohtak is a suitable raw material for composting through biological treatment. On the other hand, the calorific value of the waste is low (816 kcal/kg) which makes it unsuitable for thermal treatment. Results drawn from this study will be useful for Urban local body and planners, for proper management of solid waste and environmental sound city management.

In today's world, Women Security has become a major social concern in the society. This paper intends to presents a unified combination of wearable jacket and mo-bile technology for Safety of women in the society. This technique helps to alert family member and people closest to the victim by using GPS and GSM module, buzzer and LED Module. On activating the system, a GPS module cap-tures the current location of the victim and sends an emergency alert message to the registered contact using GSM Module. The LED Modules and Buzzer are used to grab at-tention of nearby public and through attacker off- guard. The main advantage of this system is that the user does not require a smartphone unlike other application developed earlier and moreover the system considers response to time action gap which helps the victim to escape immediately.

In the present examination the A356 alloy hybrid composites containing 4 wt. % of Graphite and 8 wt.% B4C particulates were created for the investigation. The microstructure of the composite was analyzed by scanning electron microscopy, micrographs were taken to recognize the nearness of graphite and B4C molecule in aluminum lattice. Further, tensile behavior of as cast A356 allo and A356-4 wt. % Graphite and 8 wt. % of B4C composites were examined. Mechanical properties like UTS, yield strength and ductility were assessed according to ASTM benchmarks. Microstructural perception uncovered the uniform dissemination of particles in the A356 composite framework. From the investigation, it was discovered that a ultimate and yield values of composite was expanded due to Graphite and B4C particles in the composite. Further, from the investigation ductility of the composite abatements with the expansion of B4C particulates.
