A Study to Assess the Stress and Anger Management by Deep Breathing Exercise and Meditation Among Adolescent Nursing Students at a Selected Nursing School in Delhi
Abstract: Introduction: Stress is a response that can lead to physical, emotional, or psychological strain. It is a frequent occurrence in daily life. Stress acts as the body's natural mechanism for defense against potential threats and dangers. It initiates a release of hormones that ready the body's functions to either confront danger head-on or retreat, commonly known as the fight-or-flight reaction. Anger can be caused by both external and internal events …

Application of Game Theory Principles for Opportunistic Routing in MANETS
Abstract: This article explores the application of game theory principles to enhance opportunistic routing in mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs). MANETs are characterized by their dynamic topology, limited resources, and lack of infrastructure, making traditional routing protocols less efficient. Opportunistic routing leverages the mobility of nodes and the broadcast nature of wireless communication to achieve reliable message delivery. However, existing opportunistic routing algorithms may suffer from challenges such as high message …

A Ventilated Dual-Function Photonic–Phononic Metasurface for Simultaneous Passive Radiative Cooling and Low-Frequency Noise Mitigation in Building Envelopes: Conceptual Design and Computational Feasibility Analysis
Abstract: Acoustic metamaterials for sound insulation and photonic/radiative-cooling metamaterials for passive thermal management have each matured separately for building-envelope retrofit, but existing studies address ventilation, acoustic damping and radiative thermal control in isolation, and no reported unit-cell architecture co-designs all three within a single shared structure. This gap persists because materials that are acoustic absorptive are generally dense and structurally opaque, whereas materials that are highly solar-reflective are conventionally applied to …
