Analysis of Retrofitting Concrete Structure Using FRP Laminates
Abstract: Retrofitting is referred to as modifying existing equipment or structure with additional or new components or members. To make older structures more resistant to accidents or seismic activity, retrofitting is referred to as modifying existing equipment or structures with new or additional members or components. An existing structure is less susceptible to damage when it is retrofitted. The use of retrofitting is on the rise right now. The structures' strength, …

STUDY OF EFFECT OF SSI ON SEISMIC RESPONSE OF AN IRREGULAR RC STRUCTURE ON SLOPING GROUND AND ITS RESPONSE CONTROL BY USING BRACINGS
Abstract: Structures located on sloping terrain surface are more susceptible to earthquake because of uneven plan and elevation irregularities. Lately, high-rise buildings have been design with various plan and elevation irregularities to elevate their visual aesthetics. In the most of cases, the structural analysis under an earthquake load has been done without considering the effect of soil-structure interaction (SSI), thereby it may not reflect the actual seismic response of the structures. …

Managing Pavement Settlement Risk: Impact of Waterlogging and Soil Conditions
Abstract: In the context of road infrastructure, the occurrence of waterlogging due to rainfall can have significant repercussions. Rainwater often infiltrates the road surface and, depending on factors such as the depth of the foundation and the extent of penetration into the ground, can lead to the soil beneath the road becoming either moist or saturated. This, in turn, can result in a reduction of the soil's bearing capacity. When vehicles …

Fingerprint Liveliness Detection in Biometric Authentication: A Survey
Abstract: In the world of cyberspace, presentation attacks (PA) on biometric systems have grown to be a major worry. The review of the literature suggests that these systems are more susceptible to spoofing or presentation attacks (PAs), which frequently cause the authentication or identification system to completely fail. To combat against presentation attacks (PAs), the presentation attack detection (PAD) or antispoofing methods have been developed to validate the liveness of the …

Bone in Periodontal Health and Diseases: A Scoping Review
Abstract: Bone resorption is a basic physiologic process and central to the understanding of many key pathologies. Alveolar bone destruction is a hallmark of periodontal disease progression and its prevention is a key clinical challenge in treatment of periodontal disease. Bone loss is mediated by the host immune and inflammatory response to the microbial challenge. As individuals are not equally susceptible to the destructive effects of periodontal infections therefore, it is …

Tranexamic Acid Mouth Rinser as a Drug of Choice among Haemostatic Agent after Tooth Extraction in Patients who are on Anti-Coagulant and Anti Platelet Medical Therapy
Abstract: Oral surgery procedure became difficult to manage in patients, who are on anti-platelet and anti-coagulant medication. Risk of thromboembolism should be balance by surgeon via reducing or stopping anti platelet and anticoagulant therapy in such patients, because there are more risk of excessive post extraction bleeding if anticoagulation or anti platelet medications are prescribed at therapeutic dose during surgical procedure. Fibrin formation mechanism become impaired in such patients, as a …

Immunomodulation in Viral Infections
Abstract: Several studies conducted over a period of two decades established that hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenocortical axis is activated during systemic viral diseases. Modulation of the Th1/Th2 balance may affect the susceptibility to or the course of infections. Reduction of T and B lymphocytes are reported during influenza virus infection. This modulation leads to limited immune response. The brain areas involved in the regulation of hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenocortical axis are affected during viral infection. Human immunodeficiency …

Pathogenesis, Immune Response and Vaccine Development in Amoebiasis
Abstract: Worldwide, approximately fifty million cases of invasive E histolytica disease occur each year and resulting in more than 100,000 deaths. It is the second leading cause of mortality due to a protozoan parasitic infection after malaria. Entamoeba histolytica infection is associated with considerable morbidity and mortality in the form of intestinal and extra-intestinal amoebiasis especially in developing countries. Recent molecular studies have conclusively proved that there are morphologically similar species …
