    A detailed investigation of waves in a viscous liquid layer of finite thickness sandwiched between two generalized thermoelastic halfspaces reveals the fact that for realistic situations one has to consider the effect of gravity at least in the liquid layer

    In this note, a liquid layer above a thermoelastic halfspace is considered. The frequency equation for the waves generated at the interface is obtained and a few limiting cases are discussed

    Compiler Design of a Policy Specification Language for Conditional Gradual Release

    Securing the confidentiality and integrity of information manipulated by computer software is an old yet increasingly important problem. Current software permission systems present on Android or iOS provide inadequate support for developing applications with secure information flow policies. To be useful, information flow control policies need to specify declassifications and the conditions under which declassification must occur. Having these declassifications scattered all over the program makes policies hard to find, which makes auditing difficult. To overcome these challenges, a policy specification language, \u27Evidently\u27 is discussed that allows one to specify information flow control policies separately from the program and which supports conditional gradual releases that can be automatically enforced. I discuss the Evidently grammar and modular semantics in detail. Finally, I discuss the implementational details of Evidently compiler within the Xtext language development environment and the implementation\u27s enforcement of policies

    Waves Generated at the Interface Between an Elastic and a Thermo Elastic Solid

    In the present note, we study the conditions for propagation of interface waves when one of the solids is a thermo-elastic halfspace and the other an elastic halfspace. The propagation of plane waves along the interface is studied and the frequency equation is derived. In view of the complicated form of this equation, two limiting cases corresponding to very high or very low frequencies are studied. It is also shown that when the coupling constant in the thermo-elastic solid is put equal to zero, the frequency equation reduces to the equation derived by Stoneley. As another particular case, the frequency equations corresponding to very high or very low wave lengths are obtained

    Note on a Viscoelastic Convection Flow

    Get PDF
    A mathematical analysis of the free convection flow of an inwmpressibk viscoelastic (Rivlin-Ericksen) fluid from an infinite flat plate under variable suction acted upon by a transverse magnetic field is presented. It is found that the effect of viscoelasticity is to appreciably alter the skin-friction

    Kapalabhati (Skull Shining Breath) Pranayama Values

    To purify the mind, the oxygen flowing upwards and the gas flowing downwards is to be moved in the opposite direction that is in the abdomen, the transfusion should take place. For this, Kapalabhati helps greatly. Kapalabhati Pranayama is a fast pranayama training method. This exercise reduces the activity of the sympathetic nerves. Hypothalamus function is stimulated. Anxiety, stress, and blood pressure are removed. Positive mood, perception, and tolerance develop. So self-management, decision making, and future planning improve. The Bhagavad Gita states that pranayama is the erasure of sins. The results of scientific research confirm that the Kapalabhati Pranayama values the improvement of physical health, mental health, mental health, and biological health

    Worship Traditions and the Influence of Goddesses in Tamil Nadu

    Get PDF
    In the social tradition of Tamil Nadu, early human beings worshipped nature and the five elements of nature, fire, rain, air, space, and earth. As an extension of this, ancestor worship, also known as worshipping the Dead, has existed in the folk tradition since time immemorial. Continuously divided into Minor Deities and Great Deities, many social groups have been worshipping in order to maintain the social restrictions of their lives. The impact of worship from the Pre-Sangam era to the present, the modulation, the characteristics of goddesses, and its consequences, explain future trends

    3D QSAR AND DOCKING STUDY OF INDOLE DERIVATIVES AS SELECTIVE COX-2 INHIBITORS

    Get PDF
    Objective: Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agents (NSAIDs) continue to be one of the most widely used groups of therapeutic agents. QSAR (quantitative structure-activity relationship) approach is a very useful and widespread technique for drug design. 3D QSAR facilitates evaluation of three-dimensional molecular fields around molecules and generates a relationship of these fields' values with the activity. Methods: 3D QSAR study was performed on selected twenty-four compounds from synthesized indole derivatives using the stepwise variable selection k-nearest neighbor (kNN) molecular field analysis approach for indicating the contribution of the steric and electronic field for activity. The docking study was performed to further confirm the binding affinity of synthesized molecules (ligands) to COX-2 enzyme as well as to study binding nature. Results: Statistically significant model was generated using VLife Molecular Design Suite 3.5 software with cross-validated correlation coefficient q2 of 0.9461 and high predictive correlation coefficient (Pred_r2) of 0.8782 indicating that the model is robust. The results of docking study suggest that the synthesized compounds have a comparable binding affinity with the COX-2 enzyme. Conclusion: The present study may prove to be helpful in the development and optimization of existing indole derivatives as anti-inflammatory agents with selective COX-2 inhibition
