Complex Space-Time and the Structure of Relativistic Quantum Theory
Abstract: Relativistic quantum mechanics was developed to reconcile the principles of quantum mechanics with Einstein’s theory of relativity. Despite its success in describing high-energy particles, the theory continues to face unresolved conceptual and mathematical difficulties, particularly in relation to the nature of time, causality, and relativistic consistency. In recent years, the idea of extending space-time into the complex domain has emerged as a useful and potentially meaningful approach to these problems. …

Investigation on bi-layer knitted fabric produced using recycled polyester and banana fiber for improved moisture and thermal comfort properties
Abstract: This research investigates thermal comfort characteristics of bi-layer knitted fabrics made of banana fibers and recycled polyester (rPET). The main aim is to maximize thermal comfort of textile products by taking advantage of the distinctive characteristics of these two varieties of eco-friendly materials. Recycled polyester and banana fibers were combined to make the bi-layer knitted materials, which is produced as separate inner and outer layers to maximize performance. The features …

Comparative 3E Analysis of Semi-Cylindrical Solar Still and Double-Slope Solar Still
Abstract: Potable clean water is the prime requirement for the human being. There is an urgent requirement to shift to the non-conventional method of water desalination. Solar desalination is one of the economical methods that has no adverse effect on the environment due to environmental constraints and climate change. Experiments have been performed to find out the performance of SCSS (semi-cylindrical solar still with iron wick) and DSSS (double-slope solar still …

Philosophical Ideas of Swami Vivekananda: Culture, The Psychological Cultivation of The Mind
Abstract: Man consists of two factors, the mind and the body. Mind with its perception is said to be directly opposed to, though somehow or other familiarly connected with, the body with its extension for, the mind has no expansion, and the body, consciousness. Now, the consciousness of mind assumes the form of reason in man, while consciousness is the common property of all living beings. Hence, the prominent yet often …

Assessment of Hygiene Degradation and Expiry Indicators in Household Bedding Products
Abstract: Household bedding products such as pillows, bedsheets, blankets, and mattresses play a crucial role in ensuring comfort, sleep quality, and overall health. However, prolonged use without timely replacement or proper maintenance can result in hygiene degradation, leading to the accumulation of dust, allergens, microorganisms, and chemical wear. This study aims to assess the factors contributing to hygiene decline and to identify reliable indicators of expiry for common bedding items. The …
