Impact of Autonomous Learning on the Achievement Level of Students of IXth Grade
The word autonomy was derived from ancient Greek words autonomia and nomos which means "self" and "law" respectively, hence when combined understood to mean "one who gives oneself one's own law is a concept found in moral, political, and bioethical philosophy”. Within these contexts, it is the capacity of a rational individual to make an informed, un-coerced decision. In moral and political philosophy, autonomy is often used as the basis for determining moral responsibility and accountability for one's actions. One of the best known philosophical theories of autonomy was developed by Kant. In medicine, respect for the autonomy of patients is an important goal, though it can conflict with a competing ethical principle, namely beneficence. Autonomy is also used to refer to the self-government of the people. This paper is an attempt to understand how this concept of autonomy actually works with students, how the students’ performance is influenced by the concept of autonomy.

Inclined Lander for Shock Alleviation
Paper gives a theoretical solution of shock absorption and represents behavior of inclined Lander during the process of impact landing. It shows a clever mechanical design for shock alleviation and also decreases the chances of accidents during the landing impact. For a long period of time, landing gear or Lander is an important area of research. This paper use theoretical force deflection method for shock alleviation and an analysis of equilibrium of Lander (with help of mass spring damper system at a constant damping) when landed on finite degree inclined. The Inclination of landing gear and effect of wheel spin-up loads is characteristics of dynamic force deflection.
