Estimation of the land surface temperature using Landsat data 8 and 5: A comparative analysis of an industrial area from Rajasthan, India

Land surface temperature (LST) is the radiative skin temperature of the land derived from solar radiation. It helps in understanding various environmental processes from local to a global scale. However, rapid urbanization and industrialization are also contributing substantially to LST. This present study has been carried out to estimate the Land surface temperature of an industrial area called ‘Neem Ka Thana’ in the eastern Rajasthan using Landsat data 8 and 5. A comparative analysis has also been presented for 1990 and 2019 to understand the magnitude and role of industrialization in increasing the temperature of the land. The LST has been estimated with respect to Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) values derived from Red and Near-Infrared bands. The Land Surface Temperature has been estimated using a step by step procedure incorporating Thermal band of Landsat 8 and 5 data for the month of May. This study also explains the shift in the area (sq. km) of temperature category over the period of 30 years and reflects the negative association of LST with NDVI while the positive relationship with NDBI.

Case Study

SHARONLAY: A new approach for post endodontic restorations: A Case Report

Root canal treatment leads to a considerable loss of tooth structure so after completion of root canal treatment it should ideally be followed by a restoration that allows cuspal coverage. This is important as there is a direct relationship between the amount of remaining tooth structure and the ability to resist occlusal forces. The cuspal width to length ratio of 1:2 or more decides whether there is a requirement of a full crown or an onlay. SHARONLAY is a new onlay design providing the necessary reinforcement in a conservative manner and protecting endodontically treated teeth against both vertical and horizontal forces. This case report presents the use of SHARONLAY as a possible alternative for post endodontic restorations.

Cryptocurrency Fluctuations

Crypto currency, an encrypted, peer-to-peer network for facilitating digital barter, is a technology developed eight years ago. Bitcoin, the first and most popular crypto currency, is paving the way as a disruptive technology to long-standing and unchanged financial payment systems that have been in place for many decades. While crypto currencies are not likely to replace traditional fiat currency, they could change the way Internet-connected global markets interact with each other, clearing away barriers surrounding normative national currencies and exchange rates. Technology advances at a rapid rate, and the success of a given technology is almost solely dictated by the market upon which it seeks to improve. Crypto currencies may revolutionize digital trade markets by creating a free-flowing trading system without fees. In this paper, we analyze the fluctuations in the prices of crypto currencies (bitcoin particularly) and the reasons associated with them.

Online Auction

Online auction systems are most influential e-business applications. Their impact on trading for businesses, as well as consumers, is both remarkable and inevitable. Online auction has three parts- Admin, Buyer and Seller. The Admin module controls the whole bidding process, registered buyer/seller. And it approves the product by their categories. The Seller uploads the goods for sale with detail, and the buyer bids on the product they are interested in. this is a fully dynamic system which can be operated by the non-technical user too.

Design and force analysis of sheet metal operations using press tool for plate leveler

Sheet metal operations are commonly used for producing various components of automobiles and home appliances. This paper deals with a review of the literature on tools used for sheet metal operations and their design and analysis. The objective of this paper is to study the various operations and tools used for sheet metal processes like blanking, piercing and forming, etc. with their pros and cons. The comparison of results is discussed for various designs for compound tools and combination tools. On the basis of results, the new combination tool will be proposed for the plate leveler component used in a domestic refrigerator. The combination tool can be used to carry out dual operations namely piercing and forming simultaneously. Presently the piercing and forming operations are carried out independently on separate machines by using the separate tools in many of the industries. However, the use of the combined tools will reduce process time, operator fatigue and tool cost.

Transformation of number system

A number is just a combination of some symbols expressed as numerals or digits in any number system, the number of terms in the combination depends upon the base of a number system (or a number of digits/numerals in the number system). Any combination can be represented as (Q)m Where, Q → Combination (or integer) and m → base of a number system (or a number of digits in the system). (11000000)2 → (300)8 → (192)10 → (C0)16 As you can see that a combination 192 in base 10 system have a different number of terms, based on the number system it lies in and as we increase the digits in the number system, the number of terms in the combination decrease but its value remains same. The large combinations in our base 10 system, can be a small combination in a base m system having a very large value of m. In base 10 system a combination arrives know as infinity and this combination arrive because we have only 10 digits, if we convert this combination in base m system where m →∞, then this combination can become finite in that system.
