Apparatus for determining changes in limb volume

Measuring apparatus for determining changes in the volume of limbs or other boty extremities by determining the cross-sectional area of such limbs many comprise a transmitter including first and second transducers for positioning on the surface of the limb at a predetermined distance there between, and a receiver including a receiver crystal for positioning on the surface of the limb. The distance between the receiver crystal and the first and second transducers are represented by respective first and second chords of the cross-section of the limb and the predetermined distance between the first and second transducers is represented by a third chord of the limb cross section

Adenoid Cystic Carcinoma of External Auditory Canal

Adenoid cystic carcinoma is extremely rare tumour that accounts for approximately 5% of primary malignancy of external auditory canal. These tumours are related with a high risk of recurrences and significant morbidities from surgical management and adjuvant radiotherapy. Despite the aggressive management for these tumours, many patients succumb to distant metastasis, making overall prognosis of these tumours poor. Although ACC of EAC has been reported in 5th decade, but its occurrence in young patient is very rare. We report a rare case of ACC in a young 22 years old female, who presented with ear canal mass and ear pain. Biopsy suggested mass to be ACC. Patient underwent wide local excision followed by adjuvant radiotherapy

Iron oxide nanoparticles fabricated by electric explosion of wire: Focus on magnetic nanofluids

Nanoparticles of iron oxides (MNPs) were prepared using the electric explosion of wire technique (EEW). The main focus was on the fabrication of de-aggregated spherical nanoparticles with a narrow size distribution. According to XRD the major crystalline phase was magnetite with an average diameter of MNPs, depending on the fraction. Further separation of air-dry EEW nanoparticles was performed in aqueous suspensions. In order to provide the stability of magnetite suspension in water, we found the optimum concentration of the electrostatic stabilizer (sodium citrate and optimum pH level) based on zeta-potential measurements. The stable suspensions still contained a substantial fraction of aggregates which were disintegrated by the excessive ultrasound treatment. The separation of the large particles out of the suspension was performed by centrifuging. The structural features, magnetic properties and microwave absorption of MNPs and their aqueous solutions confirm that we were able to obtain an ensemble in which the magnetic contributions come from the spherical MNPs. The particle size distribution in fractionated samples was narrow and they showed a similar behaviour to that expected of the superparamagnetic ensemble. Maximum obtained concentration was as high as 5 % of magnetic material (by weight). Designed assembly of de-aggregated nanoparticles is an example of on-purpose developed magnetic nanofluid.

Hybrid Wireless Network Approach for QoS

Fast improvement of wireless networks has stimulated variety of wireless applications that have been used in number of areas such as commerce, emergency services, military, education, and entertainment. As wireless communication capture popularity, specific research has been devoted to supporting real-time transmission with Quality of Service (QoS) requirements for wireless network applications. At the same time, a wireless hybrid network that combines a mobile wireless ad hoc network (MANET) and a wireless infrastructure network has been considered to be a better option for the next generation wireless networks. By directly implementing resource reservation-based QoS routing for MANETs, hybrids networks inherit invalid reservation and race condition problems in MANETs

Effect of TiO2 as an Additive on the Phase Formation and Densification of Mullite-Zircona Composites

Mullite-Zirconia composite was prepared from reaction sintering of zircon sand and alumina with different percentages of titanium dioxide. The mixture was uniaxially compacted and sintered at 1500⁰C, 1550oC and 1650oC with 4hrs. soaking time. The density, biaxial flexure strength and XRD were carried out on different sintered samples. Maximum density and approximate zero porosity was achieved at 1600oC in sample containing 0.2% TiO2. Addition of additive increased the biaxial flexural strength of the zirconia-mullite composites

A Survey Paper on Ontology-Based Approaches for Semantic Data Mining

Semantic Data Mining alludes to the information mining assignments that deliberately consolidate area learning, particularly formal semantics, into the procedure. Numerous exploration endeavors have validated the advantages of fusing area learning in information mining and in the meantime, the expansion of information building has enhanced the group of space learning, particularly formal semantics and Semantic Web ontology. Ontology is an explicit specification of conceptualization and a formal approach to characterize the semantics of information and data. The formal structure of ontology makes it a nature approach to encode area information for the information mining utilization. Here in Semantic information mining ontology can possibly help semantic information mining and how formal semantics in ontologies can be joined into the data mining procedure.

Personalize News Recommendation System by Using Stack Auto Encoder

The popularity of Internet and mobile Internet, people are facing serious information overloading problems now a days. Recommendation engine is very useful to help people to reach the Internet news they want through the network. Recommender Systems have become the vital role in recent years and are utilized widely in various areas of social importance. In day to day life, users will not be able to read news every day due to heavy schedule. So to increase General knowledge of users we propose online recommendation systems which recommend news. In existing system i.e. news delivery portals deliver popular news on home page of the portal but user’s data according recommendation is not implemented yet. To overcome existing system problems we propose new recommendation system which automatically finds the news based on user’s profiles. Using the stack auto encoder algorithm

Privacy Preserving For Secure Cloud Storage

Cloud Computing is one of the large and essential environment now a days to work for the storage collection and privacy preserve to that data. Cloud data security is most important and major concern for the client while use of the cloud services provided by the different service providers. There can be some major security concern and conflicts between the client and the service provider. To get out from those issues, a third party auditor uses as an auditor for assurance of data in the environment. Storage systems for the cloud has many fundamental challenges still today. All basic as well critical challenges among which storage space and security is generally the top concern in the cloud environment. To give the appropriate security issues we have proposed third party authentication system. The cloud not only for the simplified data storage but also secure data acquisition in cloud environment .At last we have perform different security analysis as well performance analysis. It give the results that proposed scheme has significant increases in efficiency for maintaining highly secure data storage and acquisition. The proposed method also helps to minimize the cost in environment and also increases communication efficiency in the cloud environment
