Corrosion inhibitors for 7000 aluminum alloys
Abstract: Wrought aluminium-zinc-magnesium copper (AA7000) series alloys have commonly used in aerospace industry and super-jet boats industry due to their high strength-to-weight ratio, toughness and resistance to fatigue. Variation in medium of exposure varies fatigue crack growth rates in these alloys. Stress corrosion crack is resisted by fine precipitates in alloys. Organic corrosion inhibitors are supposed to be mandatory from environmental legislation. Radioactive pitting corrosion has inhibited by conversion coatings.

Multiple Sequence Alignment Algorithms for a Protein Structure for a Biological Data using Dynamic Programming Method
Abstract: Many algorithms use dynamic programming to align two sequences. In this paper a new algorithm is proposed to perform multiple Sequence alignment. This algorithm is developed by taking the inspiration of dynamic programming and is implemented on protein structures of any length. It uses particle swarm optimization (PSO) techniques to get the best alignment. The proposed approach tries to improve the sequence alignment obtained by Needleman Wunsch algorithm.
