Women Liberation Politics Explained in Kaalakkanavu – Modern Drama
Ideas like Women’s Liberation, Women’s rights, Women’s Development, Feminism, Women’s Law, Equality for women, resistance against male chauvinism are sounding all over the world. Women are voicing everyday to attain her independent space. But her voices are chocked by male chauvinistic voices. Even after all her voices for liberation, her revolutionary history has been denied and dissembled. Women’s history of liberation has been constructed by men here. Periyarist and Feminist researcher V. Geetha has collected Women’s history and she has written this as a play under the title of “KAALAKKANAVU”. Professor A. Mangai direct this play and she published this text as a book. This research paper has been pertaining to women liberation thoughts highlighted in this kaalakkanavu modern Drama

The complications analysed were wound breakdown, wound cellulitis or infection, lymphocyst, limb edema and the time to wound healing. In a total of 80 inguinofemoral lymphadenectomies 55% had wound breakdown, 17.5% had wound infection/cellulitis, lymphocyst in 31%, limb edema in 36% and time taken for complete wound healing ranged from 10-134 (average 46 days). Overall post operative morbidity was 85%
Master of Science
thesisthey need to reconstruct the underlying neural circuitry. The neural circuit, which consists of the neuron cells and synapses in a three-dimensional (3D) volume of tissue are scanned slice-by-slice at very high magnifications using an electron microscope. From the electron microscopy images, the neurons and their connections (synapses) are identified to lay out the connections of the neural circuitry. One of the necessary tasks in this process is to segment the individual neurons in the images of the sliced volume. To effectively carry out this segmentation we need to delineate the cell membranes of the neurons. For this purpose, we propose a supervised learning approach to detect the cell membranes. The classifier was trained using decision stumps boosted using AdaBoost, on local and context features. The features were selected to highlight the curve like characteristics of cell membranes. It is also shown that using features from context positions allows for more information to be utilized in the classification. Together with the nonlinear discrimination ability of the AdaBoost classifier there are clearly noticeable improvements over previously used methods. We also detail several experiments conducted for identification of synapse structures in the microscopy images
Proposed energy efficient clustering and routing for wireless sensor network
Wireless sensor network (WSN) is considered a growing research field that includes numerous sensor nodes used to gather, process, and broadcast information. Energy efficiency is considered one of the challenging tasks in the WSN. The clustering and routing are considered capable approaches to solve the issues of energy efficiency and enhance the network’s lifetime. In this research, the multi-objective-energy based black widow optimization algorithm (M-EBWOA) is proposed to perform the cluster-based routing over the WSN. The M-EBWOA-based optimal cluster head discovery is used to assure an energy-aware routing over the WSN. The main goal of this M-EBWOA is to minimize the energy consumed by the nodes while improving the data delivery of the WSN. The performance of the M-EBWOA is analyzed as alive and dead nodes, dissipated energy, packets sent to base station, and life expectancy. The existing research such as low-energy adaptive clustering hierarchy (LEACH), hybrid grey wolf optimizer-based sunflower optimization (HGWSFO), genetic algorithm-particle swarm optimization (GA-PSO), and energy-centric multi-objective Salp Swarm algorithm (ECMOSSA) are used to evaluate the efficiency of M-EBWOA. The alive nodes of the M-EBWOA are 100 for 2,500 rounds, which is higher than the LEACH, HGWSFO, GA-PSO, and ECMOSSA
Magneto-convection of water-based nanofluids inside an enclosure having uniform heat generation and various thermal boundaries
AbstractInvestigation of two-dimensional steady laminar magneto-convection heat transfer of (Ag,TiO2) water based nanofluids with variable properties inside a heat generating square enclosure having different thermal boundaries is done numerically in this paper. The governing equations are solved utilizing the finite volume method with power-law scheme and SIMPLE algorithm is used for handling the pressure-velocity coupling. The algorithm and the computer code have been also compared with numerical results in order to verify and validate the model. By using the developed fortran code, the effects of Hartmann number, heat generation (or absorption), Reyleigh number and solid volume fraction on the flow and thermal fields and heat transfer inside the enclosure are studied. Results are demonstrated in the form of streamlines, isotherms and average Nusselt number
