Fabrication of Jute–Pine Apple leaf reinforced hybrid composites: Validation of mechanical properties through ANSYS
There is a huge need for new materials in all fields of engineering, this invites the development of new ¬materials which suits the need. Utilization of biodegradable materials i.e. natural fibers for various applications to preserve the environment from synthetic fibres invites the development of natural fiber reinforced polyester composites. In a country like India which is producing an enormous amount of agricultural solid waste (in the form of leaf, fruits, stems etc.) there is lack of marketing for the above-said wastes if this can be improved the farmers may get benefited. Natural fiber reinforced composites are preferred than conventional materials because of their advantages like low density, lightweight, high strength to weight ratio, low cost, high toughness, and biodegradability. The present investigation deals with the preparation of jute, pineapple leaf fiber and jute-pineapple leaf fiber (Hybrid) reinforced polyester composite and to determine the tensile, flexural and impact properties with increase in percentage weight fraction of the fiber and to compare the properties of the composites. Further, the experimental results will be validated through ANSYS software.

Performance analysis of EPMS and EAPMS routing protocol in WSN
Routing in a wireless sensor network is a key challenge. The appropriate routing is done in WSN by using swarm intelligence approach. Various swarm intelligence techniques are available like ant colony optimization, particle swarm optimization, artificial bee colony optimization etc. But the hybrid approach of ACO and PSO is a promising one. the PSO is used to enhance the attributes in the ACO, which define that the selection of parameter doesn’t depend on artificial experience, but relies on the robust search on the particles in the PSO. We also used an enhance utilization of ACO, by this technique we have found the shortest path or routes of ants. The output of the experiment shows that the optimize algorithm not only reduce the number of paths in the ACO but also finding the shortest path at the place of the largest path. The simulation result shows that the combination of ACO-PSO performs better than Energy Efficient PSO in terms of dead nodes, alive nodes, and throughput of the network.

Impact of Prime Minister Ujjwala Yojana on ocular trauma in the tribal belt of India
We wanted to study the impact of Ujjwala yojana on ocular injuries caused by the use of wooden sticks during cooking. This is a retrospective cohort study. We retrieved the data from the electronic medical record (EMR) of ocular injuries caused by the use of wooden sticks during cooking before and after launching of Pradhanmantri Ujjwala yojana, a government of India flagship program, in which free LPG connections are given to below poverty line (BPL) families. We collected the data regarding ocular injuries caused by the use of wooden sticks during cooking. During our study, period 8,17,336 new LPG connections were provided under this scheme in the study population. We enrolled 3261 ocular injury cases; of which, 171 (5.3%) eyes were found to have ocular injuries because of using wooden sticks during cooking. We divided ocular injury cases that are caused by the use of wooden sticks during cooking into two groups: before and after launching of the Ujjwala yojana. We found that the number of eyes injured before and after the launch of the scheme are 93 (54%) and 78 (45%), respectively. The difference between the two groups was statistically significant (p=0.000). Ujjwala Yojana is beneficial in reducing ocular injuries caused by the use of wooden sticks during cooking.

Biomarkers- Emerging applications of biomarkers in healthcare
Biomarkers are a small protein or peptide molecules which are part of cell receptors, cell signaling molecules involved in cell-cell signaling or cell protein kinase activation and transfer of the signal to the nucleus with the regulation of gene transcription. Biomarkers have functional significance in the recognition of different stages of cancer, therapy for cancer, and the identification of different types of cancer of different organs according to the biomarker present. It is also used for the diagnosis and analysis of mutations in various proteins and identification of single nucleotide polymorphism in genes, screening of diseases, classification of diseases in humans and development of target inhibitor molecules against the biomarkers. Various other studies have indicated the presence of autoantibodies against proteins of the cells which act as biomarkers in different grades of cancer and autoimmune response.

Comparative study of different codes on steel building
The paper mainly focuses on the comparison of two different code that is IS code is IS800: 2007 (LSM), IS 875: 1987 part (I, II, and III) and AISC LRFD code for a conventional industrial steel building. It’s a case study for the industrial building based on the review and the various case studies which show their experimental and analytical study carried out in this field. Different structural design code provides different data and procedure of design to engineering. Comparisons of the different factor with the same loading. To conduct the study a 3D model of Industrial building having dimension 15mX45m, 20mX50m, 23mX65mwith three different spacing that is (4.5m,5m,6m); (5m,6m,7m); (5m,6m,7m) having column height 6m is designed and analyzed on STADD-Pro V8i structural design software.

Post-operative fever
Post-operative fever is common and occurs in about 30% of patients. Non-Infectious causes are more common and occur usually in the first 24 hours while infectious causes can occur anytime. The presentation of infectious and non-infectious cause is almost the same and it is important to know the cause of fever so as to investigate and treat the patient in minimum cost yet in an effective manner.
