Characterization and Antimicrobial Investigations of Isomeric Pr(III) Juglonates
Abstract: Hydroxy napthoquinone derivatives constitute an interesting group of ligands which is recognized as ‘Juglones’. Isomeric Lawsone-Juglone and Phthiocol-Plumbagin are the most important members of the Juglone series and are biologically active, having natural origin. They form isomeric pairs of ligands resulting into isomeric pairs of metal chelates. The isomerism is occurring due to formation of either five or six membered rings in the metal chelates. In the present work Prasodymium …

Finite Element Modelling of Contact Stresses in Helical Gear Systems
Abstract: Helical gears are widely used in modern power‐transmission systems because of their high load‐carrying capacity, smooth meshing action, and increased overlapping of gear teeth. However, the design of helical gear pairs is constrained by contact stresses generated at the mating tooth surfaces, which can lead to surface fatigue (pitting), micro-cracking, and ultimately gear failure. Traditional analytical methods, such as those of the American Gear Manufacturers Association (AGMA) or International Organization …

Intuitionistic Fuzzy Hypergraph Laplacians and Dominating Transversals for Resilient Discrete Network Design
Abstract: This manuscript develops a discrete mathematical framework for resilience analysis on networks whose interactions are polyadic, uncertain, and partially conflicting. Classical graphs compress multi-way coordination into pairwise edges, while ordinary fuzzy graphs often ignore the non-membership information that becomes critical in emergency logistics, infrastructure interdependence, and cyberphysical coordination. We therefore formulate an intuitionistic fuzzy hypergraph in which each vertex hyperedge incidence carries membership, non-membership, and hesitation, and we construct a …

Selection of Best Natural Fibre for Retrofitting of Structure by Using AHP
Abstract: Ordinary concrete has certain characteristics such as; it is relatively strong in compression but weak in tension and tends to be brittle. To neutralize this weakness of concrete some natural reinforcement is provided to concrete and subsequent concrete is called fibre reinforced concrete. There are many types of natural fibres which are used in concrete as a reinforced material to increase the properties of concrete such as; Sisal, Coir, Hemp, …

A Common Mode Scan Based BIST for Stuck-at-Fault and Path Delay Fault
Abstract: Testing for delay and stuck-at faults requires two pattern tests and test sets are usually large. Built-in self-test (BIST) scheme is attractive for comprehensive testing. The BIST test pattern generators (TPGs) for such testing should be designed to ensure high pattern-pair coverage. In the proposed work, necessary and sufficient conditions to ensure complete/maximal pattern-pair coverage for sequential circuit have been derived. A new test data-compression scheme is an effective approach …

Design of Slew Aware Clock Distribution Network for Ultra Low Power Sub-threshold Applications
Abstract: Clock distribution network consumes significant amount of power due to its high switching activity. The high power consumption issue can be satisfactorily addressed by the sub-threshold operation of device, however at the cost of degraded performance and magnified variability. This paper investigates the suitability of conventional clock distribution network for sub-threshold regime and proposes a novel strategy of having an optimized uniform H-tree with a pair of buffer only at …

Principles of Interpolating Prognostication in Oncology
Abstract: AbstractThe precise prediction in oncology plays a critical role in prevention, treatment, assessment of the effectiveness of methods of treatment and treatment outcomes for cancer patients. Some medical researches claim that statistical processing (factor analysis) permits to precisely individualize the prognosis, which determines the possibility of an individual approach to monitoring and postoperative treatment of patients. However, factor analysis permits only creating a matrix of factors that can significantly describe …
