A study to identify hearing problem among elderly

In India the global morbidity rate of hearing problem is 63 million. The current scenario is to increase the life span of the old age population. Our focus is to provide a good quality of life for the people by identifying people with hearing problem. Methods: Descriptive research design was chosen to the study to identify hearing problems among elderly in PSG Hospitals, at Coimbatore. The sample consists of 30 patients. Elderly patients who met the inclusion criteria were selected by using purposive sampling technique. The data collection was done by using the self-administered questionnaire. Collected data was analyzed by using descriptive statistics and inferential statistics. Results: Out of 30 samples, 15 were identified to have hearing problem. Out of 15 patients, (27%) had no hearing problem, (60%) had mild to moderate hearing problem and (13%) had significant hearing problem. There was a significant association between the severity of hearing problem and with Age of the elders

The methods of non-violent: protest and persuasion

“The aftermath of violence is tragic bitterness while the aftermath of nonviolence is the beloved community” Great Martin Luther King Jr. Extreme protests has been the mainstay of activists around the world for long years but protest in India which popularized and perfected the non-violent protest and quietly powerful hunger strike. There have been many rushes to embrace an increasingly unusual form of agitations

Magnetic effect on heat and mass transfer analysis of nanofluid past a vertical plate through a porous medium in the presence of chemical reactive spices

Magnetic effect of Heat and Mass Transfer analysis of Nanofluid past a vertical plate through a porous medium in the presence of chemical reaction has been studied. The dimensionless governing equations are solved using the Series solution technique. The influences of the various parameters on the flow field, Temperature field, Mass Concentration, Shearing Stress, rate of heat transfer, and rate of mass transfer are extensively discussed from graphs and tables.

Computational modeling of transitional flow over NACA-0018 airfoil at low Reynolds Number

The present study presents the computational modeling of transitional flow over NACA-0018 airfoil at low chord Reynolds number of 105 at various angles of attack ranging from 0o to 15o using two-dimensional Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations (RANS) combined with the Menter’s (γ-〖R ̃e〗_θ) transition model. Two different computational domain configurations were optimized in order to investigate the effect of the wind tunnel walls on the developed flow. The structured mesh technique was used for both domains in order to generate high-quality grids that obtain the turbulence model requirements. The numerically predicted results of the airfoil aerodynamic forces presented in terms of lift and drag coefficients as well as boundary layer predictions including surface pressure distribution, skin friction coefficient, mean velocity profiles, RMS velocity profiles, and the boundary layer displacement thickness were compared to the experimental data. Very good agreement was attained prior to the airfoil stall angle, whereas the agreement became poorer as the airfoil was completely stalled.

Integration of particle swarm optimization with an adaptive K-Nearest Neighbor for energy-efficient clustering in MANET

The objective of the proposed work is to increase the lifetime of mobile ad hoc networks. The energy efficiency issue associated with the mobile Adhoc network is the critical factor for the success of any MANET system and hence we aim to develop an energy-efficient MANET system suitable for any kind of real environment. This paper addresses the nodes mobility issue based on a well-known particle swarm optimization (PSO) technique and as well designs a clustering algorithm based on an adaptive k-nearest neighbor algorithm. The cluster formation is achieved by considering a multi-objective fitness function of PSO and extensive experimentation in the simulated networked environment reveals the performance of the proposed method. In mobile Adhoc networks (MANET), optimal energy is one of the critical components and the random movement of mobile nodes within a region of interest made it more complex. The provision to have frequent changes in the topology of mobile nodes in addition to keeping the battery life for a longer duration is much more complex. The standard metrics such as network lifetime, the average number of clusters formed, energy usage, and packet transfer ratio are estimated to exhibit the performance of the proposed method. A comparative analysis is carried out with the recently proposed variant of particle swarm optimization based methods to reveal the accuracy and energy efficiency nature of the proposed method. The novelty of the proposed approach includes the exploration of an optimization algorithm integrating with a clustering strategy to increase the energy efficiency of the MANET thereby increasing the lifetime of the network. The proposed approach exhibit better accuracy and possess energy efficient even under scaled environment.

Design and fabrication of mono bike

When it comes to self-balancing personal transportation devices, it looks like the Solo wheel, Honda U3X, Uno, and Segway could all be in for a little competition. A monowheel/bike is a one-wheeled single-track vehicle similar to a unicycle. Instead of sitting above the wheel as in a unicycle, the rider sits either within the wheel or next to it. Usually driven by smaller wheels pressing against its inner rim. Most are single-passenger vehicles, though multi-passenger models have been built. The goal of this project is to design, analyze, and build a self-balancing single wheel bike for use as a transportation tool for someone traveling short distances. The project consists of a research phase in which similar systems have been investigated to help determine a sensible design approach and to establish appropriate design specifications; a design phase in which a model was designed with certain assumptions to meet the aforementioned specifications and a construction phase, in which the vehicle was built and tested. Monowheel looks like something out of a science fiction movie, but monowheel is, in fact, real, today, mono wheels are generally built but from the 1860s through to the 1930s, they were proposed for use as serious transportation. The idea may sound extreme, but the science behind monowheels is solid, at present, because of the surging consciousness of pollution and energy shortage crises, automobiles and motorcycles are no longer the best for transportation. As the price of petroleum products growing nowadays, there is a need for a cheaper and more efficient form of transport
