    The clinical study on Kalladaippu was carried out in Post graduate department of Pothu Maruthuvam, Government Siddha Medical College, Aringar Anna Hospital, Chennai – 106 during the period of 2015-2017. A total of 40 patients were treated in the Outpatient department. The clinical and pathological assessment was carried out on the basis of Siddha and Modern aspects. All the patients were treated with Karpoora silasathu parpam with Ilaneer 130 mg b.d daily, after food for duration of 48days. males were mostly affected (57.5%). Most of the patients were in the age group between 31-40 years (52.5%). Most of the patients were from Neithal Thinai (82.5%). In this study, most of the cases (35%) were house wives. Most of the patients were affected in Muthuvenirkaalam (37.5%). In Vali, Abanan (100%), Viyanan (100%), Uthanan (30%), and Devadhathan (27.5%) was affected. In Azhal, Saathagam (100%), Ranjagam (22.5%) was affected. In Iyyam, Santhigam (30%) was affected. In Ezhu udal kattugal, Saaram (100%), Seneer (22.5%) and Enbu (30%) was affected. Regarding naadi, (60%) had Vatha Azhal was the most common naadi observed. The Toxicological studies of the trial medicine reveal no toxicity. The Pharmacological studies reveal that, the trial drug has Anti Urolithiatic activity. Bio- statistical analysis of the clinical trial reveals significant p value < 0.05 and ˂ 0.01 and concluded that the treatment is effective and significant. Regarding grading of the result, 17 cases (42.5%) shows good improvement, 19 cases (47.5%) shows moderate improvement, 4 cases (10%) shows poor improvement. CONCLUSION: Kalladaippu is a common disorder of pitha kutram. The dearranged pitham is settled down by the ingredients of trial medicine having astringent taste thereby the medicine acts as ethirurai maruthuvam to cure the disease. Most of the cases noted in muthuvenir kalam and elavenir kalam in my clinical trial. So, people should take all preventive measures during this period and take enough water. Toxicological study shows no acute and sub - acute toxicity. Pharmacological study reveals that the trial medicines possess Anti Urolithiatic activity. During clinical trial, no adverse reactions or complications were observed. The trial medicine Karpoora silasathu parpam showed good results with relieving symptoms in almost 90% patients. Once again Siddha medicine proves itself as a great boon to mankind

    &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;A Magnetorheological damping has evolved as a potential tool in vibration control. The design of magnetorheological damping involves analysis of fluid flow principles and electromagnetic flux analysis. This research paper involves design and analysis of a magnetorheological damper employed for vibration control. The analysis is carried over by considering the domain as an axisymmetric model. The damping force of the damper depends upon the shear stress due to fluid viscosity and yield stress induced due to magnetic flux applied. The damping force generated by the damper is calculated

    The Cadmium Calcium Pyrophosphate doped with Pr3+ and Yb3+ was prepared by solution combustion synthesis. The luminescence studies and chromatic properties of the prepared sample were examined in the present study. The luminescence spectra of CdCaP: Pr3+ shows relevant peaks with emission at 599nm upon excitation of 445nm, whereas CdCaP: Yb3+ shows a peak at 536nm when excited with 254nm. The CIE 1931 chromaticity color coordinates for CdCaP: Pr3+ & CdCaP: Yb3+ were located in orange and greenish-yellow regions respectively. CCT and color purity values of the prepared samples were evaluated using McCam empirical formula and respective equation of color purity. Color Rendering Index (CRI) values of the prepared samples were calculated using the color calculator. © 2020 Author(s).Authors are thankful to UGC-DRS & DST-FIST, New Delhi for financial assistance to the department of physics, Acharya Nagarjuna University.

    Now a days the rate of happening of seismic events increasing and due to that so many structures got collapsed or damaged. In order to reduce the damage to structures during earthquakes, now a days the base isolation system is widely adopted and used over the world. This paper makes a wide review on the various base isolation techniques adopted and used. Different types of isolating bearings and materials used in it are reviewed. Here the review is done for the isolation system in normal R.C buildings (regular and irregular in plan) and also for bridges. The effect of base isolation system on some historic structures is also reviewed. The various advantages and disadvantages of different isolating bearings are reviewed. Here the effect of temperature on some isolating devices are also reviewed

    This paper presents eco-friendly unburnt bricks made up of fly ash, waste plastic powder, waste glass powder, lime, gypsum and crusher sand as alternatives to conventional burnt clay bricks for sustainable development. The research focuses on the maximum utilization of industrial waste in eco-friendly unburnt brick production. Materials are characterized according to their chemical and geotechnical properties. In this research, we use a milled waste glass powder of size less than 600μm and plastic powder obtained from plastic waste of size less than 600μm are added along with crushed sand, gypsum, lime and fly ash with various mix proportions concerning FaL-G mix concept. All the proportions were taken on a weight basis. Compressive strength, water absorption, and efflorescence are the key parameters chosen for comparing the innovative brick with conventional fly ash brick. There are five different mixes (Type A, B, C, D & E) are made in this research. The plastic and glass powders are replaced by crusher sand at the increased rate of 2% in every mix whereas 2%,4%,6%,8%, and 10%. It was found that the type B bricks have 17.63% strength was increased when compared to base mix. From the test results, type B bricks have enhanced mechanical performance when compared to all other mixes

    GLT sequences and automatic computation of the symbol

    No full text
    Spectral and singular value symbols are valuable tools to analyse the eigenvalue or singular value distributions of matrix-sequences in the Weyl sense. More recently, Generalized Locally Toeplitz (GLT) sequences of matrices have been introduced for the spectral/singular value study of the numerical approximations of differential operators in several contexts. As an example, such matrix-sequences stem from the large linear systems approximating Partial Differential Equations (PDEs), Fractional Differential Equations (FDEs), Integro Differential Equations (IDEs), using any discretization on reasonable grids via local methods, such as Finite DifferenDiscontinuous Galerkin etc. Studying the asymptotic spectral behaviour of GLT sequences is useful in analysing classical techniques for the solution of the corresponding PDEs/FDEs/ IDEs and in designing novel fast and efficient methods for the corresponding large linear systems or related large eigenvalue problems. The theory of GLT sequences, in combination with the results concerning the asymptotic spectral distribution of perturbed sequences of matrices, is one of the most powerful and successful tools for computing the spectral symbol f. In this regard, it would be beneficial to design an automatic procedure to compute the spectral symbols of such matrixsequences and Ahmed Ratnani partially pursued it. Here, in the case of one-dimensional and two-dimensional differential problems, we continue in this direction by proposing an automatic procedure for computing the symbol of the under- lying sequences of matrices, assuming that it is a GLT sequence satisfying mild conditions.

    No full text
    This paper presents about the automation of driving license test system. Normally, in driving test a candidate applied for license have to drive over a closed loop path in front of the authorities. The candidate has to drive over the path without any support over the land surface and if he fails to do he will be disqualified. For that, the authorities watch candidate manually. In this project, a lab view system with sensor has been developed for watching the candidate for getting license by using lab view. By using this, the candidate who fails to keep their foot in the vehicle by differential output from the sensor can be monitored. Then it was processed by the microcontroller to the lab view with the help of laptop or PC and number of count detection while a person entering for license test was authenticated by using finger print sensor. So, that they will automatically select or reject by the system
