Urban Flooding: Study of Bangalore
Authors: Mukhopadhyay Pallavi , Das Bijay Kumar
Published: September 2023

Climate Change has brought an unprecedented change in the meteorological
parameters, affecting the urban habitat. Uncontrolled growth, cravings for Urban dwellings,
and inhibiting the areas which were once the sponge for urban floods have caused massive
hardships for urban governance and the controlling authorities. Sufferers are the common
masses, especially the marginal sections of society, mostly the urban poor. Bangalore, the
Silicon Valley of India is facing a burning problem of urban mismanagement in terms of
traffic, Urban land use, and water availability. Bangalore is the hub of India’s software
revolution which employs the youth from across the country. The demand for housing is met
by the haphazard construction of residential apartments often encroaching on the waterlogged
low-lying land. Many lakes visible 40 years ago have vanished from the map. They
are now in residential & commercial use. The natural channels are all modified and blocked,
so the water cannot find its path to drain thereby choking the city and low-lying areas. This
paper explores how Bangalore, once a sustainable city transformed into a city with multiple
urban problems and why it is still a widely accepted residential preference among the youth
equipped with innovative technologies and upcoming start-ups.

Authors:   Department of Renewable Energies and Environment, Faculty of New Sciences and Technologies, University of Tehran, Tehran, Iran, Yousefi Hossein , Mahmoudi Mohammad , Ghodusinejad Mohammad Hasan
Published: September 2023

This study presents the supersonic inductive Magnetohydrodynamic (SIMHD) generator and simulates its model through the use of COSMOL Multiphysics. This generator, as an inductive MHD generator, is suggested to address the problems associated with the conventional MHD generator. Since the proposed generator does not require a moving part to convert thermal energy to electrical energy, it is categorized as a direct energy convertor. The SIMHD generator consists of a converging-diverging duct and is divided into two sections at the diverging part by means of a diaphragm. Both of these sections are diverging, which makes it possible to obtain a high Mach number. In this regard, the performance of the SIMHD generator is studied by its mathematical modeling and numerical simulation using the finite element method. In addition, a sensitivity analysis is carried out on the design parameters. The results indicate that the proposed SIMHD duct design will increase the speed from 160 to 1300 m⁄s, and decrease the temperature from 2100 to 1300 K. Moreover, considering a charge generation equation, the produced power for the resistive load 50 Ω equals 25.3 kW. This generator also has the potential to be used in scramjets and ramjets.

Published: September 2023

Objetivou-se compreender a inter-relação existente entre a formação, a organização e a humanização das práticas de cuidado do enfermeiro da Atenção Primária à Saúde. Estudo qualitativo, embasado no referencial teórico da Hermenêutica Filosófica, realizado com vinte e sete enfermeiros que atuam na Atenção Primária à Saúde de um município do interior da Bahia.  A produção de dados ocorreu através da entrevista semiestruturada e foi analisada por meio da Hermenêutica Filosófica. Os resultados do estudo demonstraram que a organização das práticas de cuidado do enfermeiro interfere e interage com sua formação e requer que este profissional tenha visão crítica para desenvolver práticas que transcendam ações direcionadas apenas para programas com foco nos grupos populacionais. Também evidenciou que a humanização, o vínculo, o acolhimento e o diálogo foram valorizados durante a formação do enfermeiro bem como no cotidiano de suas práticas; contudo, as condições de trabalho não têm contribuído para que sua atuação seja norteada pelos aspectos relacionais e subjetivos do cuidar. Torna-se relevante a articulação entre a gestão da Atenção Primária à Saúde, profissionais de saúde e Instituições de Ensino Superior para que se possa elaborar estratégias que visem o fortalecimento da formação e atuação do enfermeiro na Atenção Primária à Saúde.

Authors: Loan Le Thi Kim , Truc Ngo Thi Thanh , Khoa Duong Dang
Published: September 2023

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to examine the causal relationship between saline intrusion and poverty in rural households in the Mekong Delta based on the 2018 Vietnam Household Living Standard Survey data.

Design/Methodology/Approach: A sample of 344 rural households in the Mekong Delta is used to analyze the causal relationship between saline intrusion and poverty through income. This study employed the Ordinary Least Squares method and the oprobit model to investigate the causal relationship between saline intrusion and rural household income. Finally, this study estimates the impact of saline intrusion on poverty using different propensity score matching methods.

Findings: 1) Saltwater intrusion has a significant negative impact on the income of rural households, making households more likely to fall into the lower income group; 2) Saltwater intrusion has a greater negative impact on the incomes of poorer households than non-poor households, while also having a negative impact on households with low education and farming; and 3) By reducing household income as well as income from farming activities, infiltration increases the risk of poverty for rural households and reduces the household's ability to escape poverty.

Conclusion: This study demonstrates how saltwater intrusion affects household poverty by reducing income and raising the likelihood that households will fall below the Vietnamese government's designated poverty income threshold.

Context: Andrographis paniculata has been used as a traditional medicine to treat malaria. The ethyl acetate fraction of A. paniculata containing diterpene lactone compounds was developed into a tablet dosage form, AS201-01. Aims: To determine the antimalarial activity and toxicity of AS201-01 to guarantee its efficacy and safety. Methods: Antimalarial assay in male Balb/c mice based on Peter’s four-day suppressive test at a dose of 6.25, 12.5, 25, and 50 mg/kg BW and 10 mg/kg BW of chloroquine as a positive control. In acute toxicity, AS201-01 was administered orally at a dose of 5, 50, 200, and 2,000 mg/kg BW in male rats (Wistar rats) and observed for 14 days to identify signs of toxicity and mortality. Meanwhile, AS201-01 was administered at 50, 327, and 1,000 mg/kg BW per day for 28 days in male and female rats to assess subchronic toxicity. Results: AS201-01 has antimalarial activity and exhibited the highest suppressive effect at 50 mg/kg BW dose with inhibition of 73.48%. Meanwhile, chloroquine at 10 mg/kg BW has an inhibition of 97.94%. AS201-01 was highly active as an antimalarial with an ED50 value of 5.95 mg/kg BW and increased survival time. Administration of AS201-01 is relatively safe in acute and subchronic toxicity studies. No clinical signs and mortality were observed in either study. The 50% lethal dose (LD50) was above 2,000 mg/kg BW. Conclusions: AS201-01 is effective as an antimalarial and non-toxic when administered orally at an equivalent therapeutic dose in an animal model.
Experimental Investigation of Temperature Distribution in the Chips, Workpiece and Cutting Tool During Machining Operations
Authors: V. C. Uwabuike , O. C. Nwufo , J. O. Azubuike , G. N. Nwaji
Published: September 2023

High temperature values are encountered during machining processes and these high temperature values have negative influences on the tool, workpiece, chip formation mechanisms, the process efficiency and the quality of surface of the machined parts. These negative influences can be reduced drastically with the use of appropriate cutting tool with suitable depth of cut during machining operations. The studies of these thermal fields in machining are necessary and very important for the development of new technologies aiming to increase the tool lives and to reduce production costs. This work centers on measurement of temperatures in the chips, cutting tool and workpiece during turning and drilling operations using uncoated high-speed steel and coated cemented carbide cutting tools at different cutting speeds and depths of cut to ascertain the more suitable cutting tool and feed rate during machining operations. Although, the direct temperature measurement at the chip-tool interface are very complex, the turning experiments were performed on a lathe machine at varying turning speeds and depths of cut, while the drilling operation was performed on a drilling machine at different turning speeds and depths of cut. All the experiments were carried out at the mechanical Engineering workshop of Federal University of Technology, Owerri. The temperature values of chip, cutting tool and workpiece when working on brass, high-carbon steel and stainless steel were measured using digital thermocouples. The results obtained showed that uncoated high-speed steel cutting tool could not cut stainless steel and high-carbon steel at very high turning speed and depth of cut due to the excessive heat it generated at the contact area, and at very low cutting speed the temperature of the cutting tools were higher than the workpiece irrespective of the cutting tool till an increased cutting speed where temperature of workpiece became higher than the cutting tool. It is recommended that coated cemented carbide on hard materials be used during turning and drilling to ensure a negligible increase in temperature while machining, also monitor speed for required finishing and extended tool life.

Contribucions als agorismes de punt interior en mètodes iteratius per a sistemes d'equacions usant regularitzacions quadràtiques
Authors:   , Cuesta Andrea Jordi
Published: September 2023

Els mètodes de punt interior per a programació lineal proporcionen algorismes de complexitat polinòmica, que els fa ser molt eficients en l’optimització a gran escala. Aquests algorismes utilitzen el mètode de Newton per a convertir les equacions d’òptim del problema, que són no lineals, en un sistema d’equacions lineals, que solen resoldre’s aplicant factorizacions de matrius esparses. En aquells casos particulars en els quals el problema té una estructura especial, com ara en els problemes d’optimització en xarxes multiarticle, es pot aprofitar per millorar l’eficiència de l’algorisme. Aquests problemes de xarxes pertanyen a la família més general de problemes primals bloc-angulars.

El punt de partida d’aquesta tesi va ser un fet empíric: l’observació del millor comportament computacional d’un algorisme especialitzat de punt inferior per a problemes bloc-angulars quan en la funció objectiu figurem termes quadràtics. Aquest algorisme utilitza factoritzacions de matrius per resoldre la part de les equacions associades a la zarza i el mètode del gradient conjugat precondicional per resoldre les equacions asociadse a les restriccions d’acoblament. Llavors l’objectiu original va ser buscar alguna forma d’aproximar un problema lineal per un quadràtic de manera que s’explotés el fet experimental observat sense perjudicar la convergència del problema. Posteriorment el plantejament inicial es va amplificar amb el nou objectiu de demostrar la convergència del mètode, entre altres resultats teòrics.

El marc teòric usat per poder formular matemàticament aquesta idea ha estat la regularització de la funció de barrera logarítmica associada al problema d’optimització, entenent com a tal la transformació de la funció de barrera original per una altra que inclou un terme quadràtic variable de pertorbació, que disminueix progressivament conforme l’algorisme s’atansa a l’òptim. Aqueste terme quadràtic converteix el problema lineal original en un de quadràtic, de forma que en les primeres iteracions aprofitem el comportament empíric abans esmentat i, a mesura que progressa l’algorisme, el terme quadràtic esdevé negligible, i el problema amb regularització quadràtica s’atansa al problema lineal original. La barrera regularitzada resulta ser auto-concordant, assegurant així la convergència del mètode de punt interior.

Secara etimologis, kata “metode” berasal dari bahasa Yunani “methodos “yang tersusun dari kata “meta” dan “hodos”. Meta berarti menuju, melalui, mengikuti, atau sesudah. Sedangkan hodos berarti jalan, cara, atau arah. Metode adalah suatu cara atau proses sistematis yang digunakan untuk melakukan suatu kegiatan agar tujuan yang diinginkan dapat tercapai. Dengan kata lain, metode berfungsi sebagai alat untuk mencapai suatu tujuan, atau bagaimana cara untuk melakukan/membuat sesuatu. Banyak ayat Al-Qur’an yang menggambarkan penggunaan metode dalam pendidikan, diantaranya dapat kita temukan dalam Surat Al Kahfi ayat 66-67, Al Anbiya’ ayat 52-61, Luqman ayat 13, An-Nisa ayat 34, surat Ali-Imran ayat 148, dan Al-Ahzab ayat 21.
