Effect of Notch on Low Cycle Fatigue of AA 2024-T351
Abstract: Notch effect on low cycle fatigue of AA 2024-T351 was investigated. Decreasing notch curvature leads to less cyclic hardening. Values of fatigue strength exponent (b) and fatigue ductility (c) for notch specimens were out of range of metallic materials. The SEM examination showed multi-crack origins with secondary cracks and a large final-fracture zone for unnotched specimens, while there was small final fracture zone close to the center of the specimen …

Statistical Analysis of Geomagnetic Activity and Solar Activity Features during Solar Cycle 23 & 24
Abstract: We present a statistical analysis of the geomagnetic storm (GMSs) with the solar activity features (Sunspot number (SN), H-α flare and coronal mass ejection (CME)) during solar cycle 23 and 24. Sunspot number (SN) shows good correlation with peak values of GMSs indices (correlations coefficient R= 0.76) while CME(R=0.59) and H-α (R=0.55) show moderate correlation. So we conclude that GMSs have good correlation with solar activity features during major geomagnetic …

Cyclic Nanoindentation and Nano-scratch Behaviour of CaCO3/PMMA Nanocomposite
Abstract: The calcium carbonate surface modified with γ-methacryloxypropyltrimethoxysilane was carried out to prepare poly (methyl methacrylate) based composite. The grafting of PMMA increased as the weight ratio between MMA and n-CaCO3 increased, while the grafting efficiency of PMMA decreased. Transmission electron micrograph showed that MPTMS modified n-CaCO3 covered with PMMA was formed by emulsion polymerisation. The scratch resistance of n-CaCO3/PMMA nanocomposites are highly influenced by reinforcement’s type. The effects of n-CaCO3 …

Long non-coded RNA, cancer, immune cells, tumor micro-environment, immuno-oncology, immune escape, cancer-immune cycle, lncRNA signature
Abstract: Developing data from current research reveals fresh insights into the roles played by long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in immuno-oncology. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) not only influence the aggressiveness of cancer cells but also play a crucial role in controlling different immune cells and stromal cells, which in turn changes the tumor micro-environment and impacts anti-tumor immunity. The significance of predictive indicators derived from long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) is underscored by …

Life Cycle Assessment of Solar Panels: Environmental Impacts from Production to Disposal
Abstract: LCA is a way to evaluate the full environmental impact of something—like a product, material, activity, or building—from start to finish. As solar energy adoption accelerates globally, understanding the full environmental implications of PV technology becomes crucial for informed decision-making and sustainable development. The study employs a cradle-to-grave approach, analyzing the environmental footprint of solar panels across multiple impact categories. These include global warming potential, energy payback time, water consumption, …

Artavachakra: An Ayurvedic Perspective on Menstrual Cycle
Abstract: In womanhood, important physiological manifestation is Artavachakra, i.e. menstrual cycle, which gives her identity of motherhood. The concept of Garbhotpatti is compared with Ankurotpatti of plants. For the proper growth and development of any crop, four suitable conditions are required which are: Proper Rutu (Season), Proper Kshetra (cultivated land), Proper Ambu (Water supply), and Proper Beeja (Uncontaminated seeds). From the four essential factors for Garbha, i.e., Rutu, Kshetra, Ambu, and …

Effect of Cyclandelate on Sudden Hearing Loss: Study of Five Cases
Abstract: Sudden sensorineural hearing loss is one of the most perplexing and controversial, unsolved mystery. It is an idiopathic hearing loss of sensorineural origin, greater than 30 dB in three contiguous frequencies that occurs in less than three days. Cyclandelate is a peripheral vasodilator and improves blood flow. Pre- and post-treatment (4 weeks) audiological assessment was done. The standardized protocol was Tab. Cyclandelate, Methylcobalamine and Cetrizine. Pre-treatment pure-tone audiometry showed moderate …

Geosynthetic polymeric material Reinforced Model Shallow Foundation's Monotonic and Cyclic Uplift Response Affected by Ground Inclination
Abstract: The foundation system of any structure is vital for ensuring safety, serviceability, and performance, particularly when subjected to vertical and uplift forces. While conventional foundations are primarily designed to resist compressive loads, structures such as transmission towers, offshore platforms, buried pipelines, retaining systems, and marine facilities are frequently subjected to uplift forces generated by wind, waves, buoyancy, and cyclic loading. Under such conditions, the uplift resistance of soil and uplift …
