Vulnerability Reduction through Appropriate Building Designs in Kashmir
Abstract: AbstractInfrastructure development and construction of accommodation (residential and nonresidential) with masonry is the oldest and most common technique used throughout the world. Same is followed in the South East Asian countries including Pakistan. Unreinforced masonry (without use of steel for tensile loadings) can withstand gravity loads well because it has good compressive strength but very low or negligible tensile strength. The tensile strength of a joint made with mortar can …

Standardization of Value Added Recipes with Millet Milk Powder
Abstract: Millets are one of the oldest foods known to humans and possibly the first cereal grain to be used for domestic purpose. Millet called as “Miracle Grains” are highly nutritious and non-glutinous. These millets are soothing and easy to digest, least allergenic and lower the risk of diabetes [1]. It is an important food in many developing countries because of its ability to grow under diverse weather conditions such as …

Historical Review of Ionosphere in Perspective of Sources of Ionization and Radio Waves Propagation
Abstract: Before the discovery of ionosphere, the electronic communication was not possible at a distance greater than 100 km due to the curvature of Earth; but after its discovery, the ionospheric wave propagation made possible the electronic communication at even more than 3000 km via reflection of radio waves through ionosphere. The ionosphere is electrically neutral, ranging from 50 to 1000 km in altitude and outer limit can exceed to 3000 …

A Study of Total Electron Content Variations Over Abuja (Nigeria) using the GNSS
Abstract: Effects of space weather are usually related to disturbances in the ionosphere such as change in total electron content (TEC), which is an important descriptive quantity for the ionosphere of the earth. This has an important effect on the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) as it causes delay in range measurements. The knowledge of this TEC change is therefore very significant to various GNSS users. This work presents the variation …

Stochastic Modelling and Seasonal Artificial Neural Networks for the Prediction of Monthly Rainfall in India
Abstract: Stochastic modelling for the prediction of monthly rainfall levels with machine learning is dealt within this paper.Rainfall is essential for agriculture and the survival of all living things. Accurate forecasting of rainfall is essential for proper planning and the execution of agricultural activities. Periods of dry weather without rainfall can have major consequences on water supply affecting ground water levels and agriculture. Stochastic modelling has been widely used to time …

Revolutionizing Watershed Management and Implementation: A Geo-Informatics (GIS)-Based Approach in Kumaun Himalaya, Uttarakhand
Abstract: For all life on Earth to survive, water is an essential resource. Concern should be expressed about the poor preservation and management of water resources, especially in developing countries. For analysing and assessing any watershed'sgeomorphological aspects, GIS is helpful. GIS is currently employed in its proof of identity, mapping, evaluation, administration, analyses, evaluation, techniques, and planning in various areas that include alternate methods of land use, and the selection of …
