Time-Cost-Quality Analysis for Construction of A Small House
Abstract: The clients of the industry focus mainly on time and cost of the project, they seldom focus on quality. For them if a project is completed within time and least cost overruns then the project is success and if not then its failures. A project manager should educate the client about the project site problems keeping in mind client’s demand and expectations. He should maintain the equilibrium for getting the …

A Conceptual Study of Ritu wsr to Shad Ritu Charya
Abstract: Health is essentially a product of interaction of an individual with his environment. The basic principles of prevention as well as management of illness are based on doshic theory of Vāta-Pitta-Kapha. This theory of Āyurveda explains all the physiological as well as pathological changes in health and disease. Similarly the proportion of the three doshas pooled over the total body and mind, determines the overall physique, physiology and psychology or …

Modern Researches Supporting Ahara Vidhi Vidhana (Rule of Dietetics in Ayurveda)
Abstract: Diet plays a major role to sustain the life and a balanced diet is very essential for maintaining good health. Presently, diet and nutrition in itself have become an elaborate and organized specialty. From a modern perspective, only components of the diet are taken into consideration, while the Ayurvedic approach is quite divergent. It additionally deals with various other aspects like a combination of food article, their quantity, method of …

Viruddhahara Causality in Lifestyle Disorders
Abstract: One is able to be free from disease only by following congenial diet. One is not able to sustain life without diet even of if endowed with medicine and that is why the diet is told as the great medicament by physicians. In Virudhaahara concept of food –-food interactions, Ayurveda cautions about unhealthy food and to be vigilant to prevent diseases by following appropriate food regimens and combinations. These guidelines …

Literature Review of Irsal-e-Alaq (Leech Therapy) in Unani and Modern Science
Abstract: The Unani system of medicine is based on the humoral theory (Nazriya Akhlat) postulated by Buqrat. According to this theory, all illness is caused by an imbalance of one of the four body humors that is, blood, phlegm, yellow bile and black bile. Irsal-e-alaq is one of the oldest and widely practiced means of Ilaj-bit-tadbeer for local evacuation of morbid humours. It is a procedure of treatment with the use …

Trauma of Survival and the Politics of Memory in Emile Habiby's The Secret Life of Saeed: The Pessoptimist
Abstract: Emile Habiby’s the Secret Life of Saeed: The Pessoptimist (1974) presents one of the most innovative and politically complex literary responses to the Palestinian Nakba and its enduring consequences. Through a distinctive fusion of satire, irony, absurdity, political allegory, and fragmented narration, Habiby departs from conventional representations of trauma and resistance. Rather than portraying Palestinian survival as a heroic or triumphant process of recovery, the novel presents survival as an …

Phase Behaviour Study of a Mesogen in a Solvent Role of Molecular Rigidity and Configurational Entropy
Abstract: The phase behaviour of a nematogen 4’-n-pentyloxy-4-biphenylcarbonitrile (POBPCB) has been studied with respect to the translational and orientational motions. The charges of atoms and their dipole moments have been estimated by implementing the complete neglect differential overlap (CNDO/2) method. The long-range interactions have been analyzed using modified Rayleigh- Schrodinger Perturbation theory together with the multicentred-multipole expansion scheme. The “6- exp” potential function has been considered to study the short-range interactions. …
