Optimization of Operational Parameters for Production of Bio-ethanol from Red Gram Straw
Abstract: AbstractBio-alcohol is a neat and cleaner source of energy, which could be obtained from locally available biomass. However, the complex structure of lignocellulose in biomass makes a primary protective barrier that prevents cell destruction. In order to break down this structure for the conversion of biomass to fuel ethanol, the cellulose and hemicellulosic materials must be broken down to corresponding monomers (sugars). It could be done easily with acid hydrolysis …

Analysis and A.I. Modelling of Parameters of Symmetrical Multistory Building using Non-linear Static Analysis
Abstract: Non-linear static analysis (Push over Analysis) is the emerging field in seismic design of structures.The major drawback of elastic analysis is that the response beyond the linear state is neither linearnor simple extrapolation. Although elastic analysis gives a good indication of the elastic capacity ofstructures, but it cannot account for redistribution of forces during progressive yielding of a structurethat follows and to predict its failure mechanism or detect possible location …

SU-8 Polymer as an Optical Waveguide for Integrated Optics
Abstract: Abstract: Optical integrated circuits analogous to electronic integration have many advantages over the latter technology. As information carriers are photons (bosons) in optical circuits rather than electrons (fermions), which maximize the speed as well as due to minimum mutual interaction between photons, losses are reduced whereas the band-width increases. Silicon is most dominant material in fabrication of Electronic Integrated Circits (EICs), Photonic Integrated Circuits (PICs) exploits the suitable optical properties …
