Development of an Intelligent and Statistical Model for Prediction of Rock Mass Deformation Modulus
Abstract: The rock mass deformation modulus (Em) takes into account the plastic and the elastic deformation of the rock mass. It has been widely used for designing structures such as dams, tunnels, caverns, and mines, etc. Since the tests available for ascertaining Em are expensive and time consuming, several equations were suggested in the past. However, it has been found that the existing models are limited to specific type of rock …

Extraction of Drainage Pattern and Watershed from SRTM Data Using GIS Tools: A Case Study
Abstract: This paper proposes a fast and an inexpensive method for delineating the drainage and watershed of a sub-basin. Planning of the water resource management is evolving from simple local-scale problems toward complex spatially explicit regional scale. Such problems have to be addressed with distributed models that can compute runoff and erosion at different spatial and temporal scales. In general, watershed can range from as little as one hectare to hundreds …

QSAR Analysis on a Series of Triazole Based Tubulin Polymerization Inhibitors
Abstract: AbstractThe polymerization progression of microtubules is vital to their natural capacities. Polymerization flow allows microtubules to embrace spatial courses of action that can change quickly because of cell needs and, at times, to perform mechanical work. Compounds that interfere with the microtubule-tubulin equilibria in cells are helpful in the treatment of human diseases. A few triazoles mimics of combretastatin-benzothiazole (CAB) hybrids had good activity as inhibitors both of tubulin polymerization …
