Designing an optimally efficient impeller for a submersible turbine pump
This paper aims to tackle the problem of designing an optimally efficient impeller for SUBMERSIBLE TURBINE PUMP (being developed first time in India under the ‘Make In India Aatmanirbhar’ scheme by Govt. of India) while taking into account several factors like the material of the impeller and its components. The paper suggests a mechanical solution to the problem that is practical and efficient, involving a constructive overview of the design process of each component in the impeller –the number of vanes and the outlet angle, the shut-off head, the diameter, the width, the eye diameter, the shaft diameter and more. This paper presents the construction and function of each component of the proposed system and illustrates the same using graphs and three-dimensional computer-generated models. It also takes into account the effectiveness of the material used in the construction of the impeller, whilst articulating safety requirements and ensuring that the design abides by them. Finally, it concludes by summarizing the effectiveness of the proposed design specifications.

Impact of organizational climate on motivation and performance of employees’ : A review of different experts
Organizational climate have an influencing role in enhancing the performance of all employees in any organization. Organizational climate consists of a set of characteristics that describes work culture in the organization. It is a set of attributes of a particular organization that is induced from behaviour and attitude of employees. Individual perception of organizational properties and organizational factors are the major determinant of climate in an organization. Organizational climate has a relatively enduring quality of the internal environment of an organization that influences behaviour of its members and is described in terms of the values of a particular set of characteristics in the organization. The organizational climate refers to those aspects of the environment that its members’ consciously perceives. The present study focus on review of literature of various scholars who have contributed a milestone in improvement of organization climate and done betterment in Human resource management.

Introduction of a training module on improving Health System Responsiveness for Nursing Officers
Health System responsiveness is a quality indicator introduced by the World Health Organization in the field of health performance evaluation. Knowledge, attitudes, and practices of health care workers about responsiveness affect the level of responsiveness perceived by the patients as customers of the health system. The objective of the study was to develop, implement and evaluate effectiveness of a training module which was designed to improve the practices of nursing officers regarding responsiveness perceived by the patients. Study was carried out at medical wards of District General Hospital- Gampola. A validated instrument was developed to assess the nursing care responsiveness and a training module was developed to address the gaps in nursing care responsiveness. This quantitative study was performed utilizing the domain specific and the overall mean responsiveness score perceived by the patients selected from pre-test and post-test samples. Domain specific and overall responsiveness scores of the pre-test sample were assessed and training module was conducted as the intervention. Post-test sample was evaluated and compared with the pre-test sample using independent t- test. The results showed that the improvement in the domains of ‘dignity’, ‘communication’ and ‘basic amenities’ were statistically significant. The improvement in overall responsiveness was also statistically significant. The results show the ability of enhancing responsiveness by the capacity building of health care workers who deal in the health system. The study recommends that the training module for nursing officers on improving health system responsiveness can be implemented in other clinical units of the hospital to improve the perception of responsiveness by the patients.

Influence of ethnic foods on culture and post COVID-19
Post COVID-19, the eating habits of localities has drastically changed. This study aims to find the effect on food habit of the regional and social group post COVID-19. The complete or partial lockdown has impacted on cultural food. Ethnicity refers to a social group which shares different distinctive such as language, religion, values, and customs. Ethnic food culture and taste of different region was affected by COVID-19 pandemic as trends toward unfavourable dietary behaviour’s during the lockdown such as increased caloric intake, more frequent snacking, reduced consumption of ethnic and regional foods. To assess the study, the descriptive methodology of research has been adopted. A sampling method under cluster sampling wherein regional and social group is formed for the research analysis which details the socio-cultural and its influence on ethnic food habits and traditional foods before COVID -19. The interview questionnaire is structured to find the impact on food habits post COVID-19. Finding of the study is to brings out the demographic expansion of ethnic food alongside the impact on ethnic food habit post COVID-19 defining as food originating from a culture of an ethnic group. The survey based on various cultures brings out its very important role in the selection of food and food habits.

Thrust vector control in rockets: Methods and effects
This paper discusses the basics of the design of a preliminary LITVC (Liquid Injection Thrust vector control) system in today’s jet propulsion methods. In principle, several methods can be used, but because high-performance propellants produce very high temperatures and usually multiphase flow, thrust vector control methods that minimize contact between moving parts and propellant gases are preferred. Also, the technique of obtaining thrust vector control by the injection of liquid into the supersonic region of a rocket nozzle has been studied. A basic model of fluid-injection thrust vector control is developed. The analysis is done to show the effects of injectant and propellant properties on the performance of the vehicle. Aerothermochemical aspects are examined by predicting the performance of selected injections in combination with a hypothetical rocket propellant and nozzle. The idea of implying this method in the steering of terrestrial vehicles is also looked upon.
