Study on the Response of Strengthening Strategies for Masonry-infilled Open Ground Storey Framed Building
Abstract: The strengthening of reinforced concrete (RC) frame buildings with masonry infill wall and with open ground storey is a very timely and significant topic because of the poor performance against seismic action. The absence of infill walls in the ground storey makes the ground storey less stiff and weaker than the all upper storys which results in a poor performance against lateral loads. Soft storey mechanism prevails in these cases …

Fatigue Analysis of the FSAE Vehicle's Front Wheel Hub
Abstract: This study illustrates the design and analysis of the FSAE vehicle's front wheel hub. Because wheel hubs are subjected to cyclic loads on a continuous basis, there is a risk of fatigue, which leads to material failure. The start and spread of cracks in a material as a result of cyclic loading is known as fatigue. The brake discs could not be easily removed since the disc is positioned between …

Mechanism of Action of Essential Oils and their Major Components
Abstract: The essential oil of lemongrass, palm rosa and eucalyptus were found to be good antimicrobial agents. To a large extent the results suggest their potential use as chemotherapeutic agents, food preserving agents, and disinfectants. However before considering these compounds as chemotherapeutic agents against human/animal diseases, it is important to study their cytotoxic and mutagenic effects. Studies were then carried to investigate the probable mechanism by which these compounds act against …
