Abstract: The paper presents an investigation into the heading of rivet shape head form aluminum-copper porous cylindrical composite specimen clamped at one of its ends, at different strain rates (based on ram velocity) during cold forging under lubricated end conditions. The composites of different compositions were prepared and forged into rivets at different ram velocities: 1.5, 50, 100 and 150 mm/min. The forgeability of all the porous composites into rivet shape head was observed. The yield criterion as proposed by Tabata and Masaki, composite friction law, an appropriate velocity field, a mathematical model considering „Upper Bound‟ analysis was developed for relative average forging pressure on the platen during cold forging of the aluminum-copper porous composites into rivet at different ram velocities. Theoretical results have been presented graphically showing the variation of the relative average forging pressure versus percent reduction in height of the porous composites. The required ram travel has also been ascertained. Theoretical and experimentally obtained values of relative average forging pressure versus percent reduction in height were plotted for different composite- specimen and a good correlation was observed. Strain rate effect on forging load during circular rivet head forming process versus percentage reduction in height were presented graphically, analyzed and discussed critically.

Abstract: In this Paper we introduce the concept of the fuzzy g*-closed set in fuzzy topological spaces. After the introduction of fuzzy sets by Zadeh in 1965 and fuzzy topology by Chang in 1967, several researches were conducted on the generalizations of the notions of fuzzy sets and fuzzy topology. In 1995, Thakur and Malviya extended the concept of g-closed sets in fuzzy topology. Many authors utilized fuzzy g-closed sets for the generalization of various fuzzy topological concepts in fuzzy topology. In 2010 Thakur and Mishra [9] introduced the concept of fuzzy g*-closed sets in fuzzy topology. In 2012 M. and Helen P. Introduced the concept of g**-closed sets in general topology. The present Paper extends the concept of g**-closed set due to Pauline M. and Helen P. In fuzzy topology and explore their study.

Abstract: In this work ZnO nanoparticles were loaded in rice starch based films using an unique equilibration-cum- hydrothermal approach. The films have been characterized by XRD, SPR and SEM analysis. These films have shown excellent antibacterial action against model bacteria E.coli when investigated qualitatively by zone inhibition method. Films exhibit great potential to be used as packaging films to protect food stuff against microbial contaminants.

Abstract: Stability of any civil engineering structure is greatly depends upon its foundation. Mostly foundation of any structure designed with the consideration of types of soils and its safe bearing capacity. Ground water table is also an important point, that should keep in mind while design any foundation. The city of Jabalpur (23 0 10 ‘N: 79 0 57’ E: MSL 402 M) is a third largest city of Madhya Pradesh. Jabalpur is a town situated in the heart of Madhya Pradesh. Looking to the past tectonic record in the locality Jabalpur is seismically sensitive. The city is in an earthquake prone area and comes under earthquake zone III as per IS: 1893-1984. Jabalpur city is vulnerable to the occurrence of major earthquake like the one which took place earlier. A moderate earthquake struck central India on the morning hours of May 22, 1997. The epicentre of the earthquake was located about 12 km S-E to the city of Jabalpur. The earthquake caused considerable damage and loss of life. Jabalpur is a city having considerable verities in soil types, so it is necessary to design the foundation of the structures with the consideration of history of earthquake in this locality and variation of soils in this region. This study highlights the sensitivity of the area with respect to earthquake and discusses some important recommendations for safe constructions.

Abstract: Water pollution has been one of the main topics in the environmental issue of Narmada river water in Jabalpur region. This study was conducted to find out the pollution situation of Narmada River and the health problem of the surrounding residents. The results clearly determine that the water quality of Narmada river may be in a position to sustain the aquatic life and suitable for using domestic purpose. This is indicated by the measured parameters in the river. The maximum recorded values of pH, turbidity hardness, total dissolved solids (TDS). The maximum concentration of turbidity, pH, hardness, Total Solid, found in the Narmada river is not much higher than the standard permissible limit. The study also provides evidence that local communities are not suffering from a variety of health problems including skin, diarrhea, dysentery, and respiratory illnesses. Dengue, malaria and other epidemic diseases are not available in this area.

Abstract: The number of mobile users and the demand for better communication is increasing day by day. So to meet up customers demand lots of advancement is being done in the field of communication. Latest communication technology LTE pays large emphasis on providing users with faster data rates and better communication quality. LTE has specified two UE states i.e. Idle mode and connected mode to avoid unnecessary signalling. When the UE does not have any data to send it is said to be in idle mode, and when the data is being send or communication is taking place then the UE is said to be in connected state. Idle mode is important as it saves battery life and also reduces unnecessary signalling. This paper gives a brief overview of both these UE states.

Abstract: Microbial fuel cell (MFC) is pollution free, electricity generation device; it represents a new method for eco- friendly source of electricity generation. When we produce electricity by Microbial fuel cell from food factory waste water we obtained pure water as a byproduct. Microbial fuel cells are devices that can use bacterial metabolism to produce an electrical current from wide range organic substrates. This paper explores the application of MFC in generating electricity using waste water from different food factories Jabalpur. In order to obtain the aim of this paper, a system of MFC with microbe with starch and glucose digestive bacteria has been used. This bacteria is not harmful for living organism as well as environment. As parameter, it was evaluated the electricity produced during MFC operation on variation at different concentration of glucose substance.

Abstract: Research work describes analysis of designed chassis frame for customized vehicle. Practically the strength of the chassis depends on the material used for manufacturing. Analyzing the effect of the changing the material of manufacturing of chassis is done. The deformation of members, stress developed in the chassis and strain in chassis is taken as the major effect in this research. The research is done by taking in account most widely used materials now a day’s i.e. Steel, Magnesium alloy and Aluminium alloy.

Abstract: Guar gum was hydrophobically modified by condensation with dimer acid by microwave irradiation; the resulting product was used to prepare a film by mixing with poly vinyl alcohol. The preparation of condensation product and the film was optimized by variation of various reaction parameters. Products were characterized by FTIR spectroscopy, SEM, viscosity, tensile strength and permeability measurements. The application of films for food packaging is suggested on the basis of various properties and biodegradation in moist soil.
