Case study: Climatic Changes in Three Major Cities
Climate change refers to changes in modern climate, including the rise in average surface temperature. Using the obtained meteorological data such as temperature, wind & precipitation and comparing satellite images of these 3 cities, shows an increase in average temperature and decrease in precipitation over the years, it also shows a rapid decrease in green cover in all three cities. Human activities such as deforestation and exploitation of other natural resources are one of the leading causes of the rapid changes in climate and its effects over the past century. To get a general idea of the people’s perception of all this, a survey was conducted by us and the statistics of the survey is analyzed.

Strategic Memory Alzheimer’s Rehabilitation Training (Smart) Memory Program: Temporary Improvement For Mci/Vci Via Systematic Novel Cognitive Exercise
Dementia is a growing worldwide phenomenon, impacting more than six million people in the United States. Despite its high projected prevalence, it is a significantly under-represented phenomenon, with estimates ranging from 15-25% of the general population. The effect of the aging of the population and significant increase in life expectancy has combined to catapult dementia into the range of one of most alarming healthcare problems. The SMART Memory Program is a cognitive intervention designed to help promote the reduction of mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and early-stage dementia. Although it has been found useful in all forms of dementia, it is particularly useful in amnestic-type MCI. A longitudinal study examined 356 clients (220 females, all amnestic-type MCI) across an approximate two-year span. Results revealed an improvement of approximately 3 MoCA points at the conclusion of a program session. Particular improvements were noted in delayed recall. These results were found to be particularly beneficial secondary to the advent of the Kirtan Kriya methodology.

Humidity Sensing Device for Soil, Atmosphere and Other Material with Temperature Intuit
In today’s smart world where the man is rapidly proceeding towards development or advancement of various aspects, considering each and every point of possibility for the resulting outcome, we are forced as well as curious to measure quantities surrounding us. Therefore, we came up with an idea of significant relevance to measure and determine important quantities of physics namely temperature, humidity, and physical moisture. The necessity of measurement of the above parameters in various fields like construction, industries, space and research compelled us to design this instrument with huge dedication. Its simultaneous measurement of all three quantities namely temperature, humidity and moisture make it an outstanding instrument in the industry as well as households.

Triangular Fractal Patch Antenna with Triple Band for Wireless Applications
Recent technology demands multiple band antennas with miniaturized size. Application of Fractals or Fractional geometries to antenna design is a successful approach. The reason behind is the capability of adjusting into compact areas. In this paper, Triangular Fractal (TF), operating between 2-11 GHz. The proposed antenna with the rectangular ground plane is modeled and simulated with Finite Element Method (FEM) based High-Frequency Structure Simulator (HFSS) and an improvement in performance parameters (Return loss, Bandwidth (BW) and VSWR) is observed with change in design parameters. The proposed antenna is suitable for application in Wi-Fi, terrestrial data links and WLAN etc.

Mitigation of Inrush Current of Transformer using Voltage Sag Compensator
In the power system voltage sag become the important issue for industries. According to the survey, 92% of the interruptions at industrial installations are voltage sag related. In various companies voltage, sag may affect many manufacturers and introduce sufficient losses in the power system. The voltage sag compensator, based on a transformer coupled series connected voltage source inverter, is the most cost-effective solution against voltage sags. A transformer inrush may occur at the start of sag compensator. This over current may damage the inrush protection of the series connected inverter and the transformer output voltage is greatly reduced due to the magnetic saturation. When the compensator restores the load voltage, the flux linkage will be driven to the level of magnetic saturation and severe inrush current occurs. This paper proposes a new technique for mitigating the inrush of the coupling transformer and preserving the output voltage for effective sag compensation.

DWT based Invisible Watermarking on Images
The imaging technology is being enhanced day by day, there are a lot of possibilities of reproduction and manipulation of digital data such as digital image, digital audio, and digital video, hence a strong digital copyright mechanism must be produced in place. So the protection of digital data content from unauthorized users and the problem of copyright management plays a very vital role. The Digital watermarking is being used to protect and save the data of researchers and to keep secret information inside a signal which cannot be easily detected by unauthorized person or users. The digital watermarking is a field of data hiding which hide the crucial information or data in the original data for protecting illegal duplication and to restrict disturbance of multimedia data. This research paper presents a survey on the digital image watermarking techniques. The outputs of various digital image watermarking methods have been compared on the basis of the results. A digital watermarking can be described as a stream of bits embedded in a digital file that offers features such as IPM (Intellectual Property Management) and proof of authority of ownership. The digital watermarking has two basic ideas - first is content protection and second is the copyright management. There are various methods to hide information inside an image, audio/video, document etc. But the Image Steganography has its own importance and is most popular among the others. This paper gives a review of various techniques such as image domain and transformation domain algorithms available for implementing Image Steganography. In this paper, an overview of some Digital Watermarking methods is discussed such as Discrete Cosine transform (DCT) and Digital Wavelet Transform (DWT) and its purpose, techniques, limitations and applications.
