A Study to Assess the Behavioural Problems of Children Among Mothers Living in Nuclear and Joint Families in Selected Areas, Sri Ganganagar
Abstract: Background of the Study: The nuclear family, rather than the extended family, is more common in the developing world. Other families are frequently thousands of miles distant, and their economic links are shaky at best. In this case, the family is more of a consuming unit than a development unit, with parenting being the "single largest predictor involved in childhood sickness and deaths, underage pregnancy and drug dependence, truancy, school …

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 …

Effect of Carbonyl Iron Particle Concentration on The Printability and Stiffness of Magnetorheological Elastomer Filaments
Abstract: Magnetorheological elastomer (MRE) are increasingly valued for their field-responsive mechanical properties, making them ideal for adaptive components in automotive, aerospace, and vibration control systems. However, conventional mould-based fabrication methods limit design flexibility, produce excess material waste, and are unsuitable for complex or customized geometries caused challenges that have hindered broader industrial adoption. Although 3D printing offers a compelling alternative, research on printable MRE filaments remains limited, particularly regarding how carbonyl …

Effect of Blunt Truncation in an Aerospike Nozzle
Abstract: Aerospike nozzles are gaining attention as a more advanced alternative to conventional bell nozzles, mainly because they can perform efficiently across a wide range of altitude conditions. Unlike traditional converging–diverging nozzles, aerospike designs naturally adjust to changes in ambient pressure, allowing the exhaust flow to expand more effectively. This results in better thrust performance under varying operating conditions, making them a strong candidate for future aerospace propulsion systems. In this …

Knowledge among School Teachers on Well-balanced Diet in High School Children at Selected Schools in Bangalore, Karnataka
Abstract: Nutrition is a complex problem influenced by many factors, among other inadequacies of dietary intake and infection. To overcome the problem, in early 1950’s, a slogan named for 4-healthy-5-perfect was introduced to guide people to consumed foods to achieve a better nutritional and health status. As the slogan was considered not providing enough information on the quantity and the balance in relation to health and biological condition, a new guideline …
