Nano-chitosan (CHTN) was synthesized by ionic gelation of CHT and sodium tripolyphosphate (TPP). The sample was characterized by the determination of particle size and polydispersity index (pdi) on particle size analyzer. Effect of various parameters such as molecular weight and concentration of CHT, concentrations of TPP on particle size were studied. Low molecular weight chitosans were prepared by nitrous acid hydrolysis method and the molecular weights were determined viscometrically. Attempts were made to correlate the viscosity behaviour with particle size of chitosan. The storage stability of CHTN dispersions was studied by periodic evaluation of their viscosity.<#LINE#> @ @ Muzzarelli R.A.A., 'Chitin Chemistry' in: J.C.

<#LINE#>Discharge Characteristics of Sharp Crested Weir of Curved Plan-form<#LINE#>S.@Kumar,Z.@Ahmad,Mansoor@T.,S.K.@Himanshu<#LINE#>16-20<#LINE#>3.ISCA-RJEngS-2012-066.pdf<#LINE#><#LINE#>26/9/2012<#LINE#>2/10/2012<#LINE#>  Weirs have been widely used for the purpose of flow measurement and flow control in open channels. Generally they are used as normal weirs. For the purpose of flow diversion they can also be used as side weirs or skew weirs. Various weirs of modified plan form have been suggested in the past to enhance their discharging capacity with minimum head over the weirs and to restrict the afflux. Presented in this paper are results of experimental study carried out to investigate the discharging capacity of a sharp-crested curved plan-form weirs under free flow conditions in a rectangular channel with weir height 0.18 m and vertex angles ranging from 45 to 120The equations for the discharge coefficient of curved weirs have been proposed. The results show that there is a gain of about 40% in discharge over a curved weir with vertex angle of 90 as compared to a normal weir. Finally, equations for discharge coefficient for all tested curved weirs in a free flow situation have been proposed.   <#LINE#> @ @ Rehbock T., Discussion of Precise weir measurement. by E. W.

Moisture adsorption isotherms of shales from Agbada Formation were determined at 27C over a water activity (a) range of 0.30 to 0.96 using a Static gravimetric technique. Moisture adsorption isotherms of these two shale samples from well A and well B exhibited the sigmoid type II and V shapes respectively. The Guggenhein, Anderson, de-Boer (GAB) model was applied to fit the experimental data satisfactorily. A non-linear regression analysis method was determined to evaluate the parameters of GAB sorption equations. The criteria used to evaluate the goodness of fit to the model were Quadratic estimates, Central derivatives and Conjugate search of Microsoft Excel. The GAB model was used because it fit to the experimental adsorption data for a wide range of water activity (0.10 – 0.96) and the error square value calculated from Microsoft Excel was low. The estimated GAB parameters and constants were in good agreement with what the model dictates and with literature. <#LINE#> @ @ Chenevert M.E., Shale Control ith Balanced Activity Oil Muds, JPT Trans AIME, 249, 1309-1316 (1970) @No $ @ @ Santos H.M.R., A New Conceptual Approach to Shale Stability, Ph.D Dissertation, The University of Oklahoma, Norman, Oklahoma, 39 (1997) @No $ @ @ Chenevert M.E. and Pernot V., Control of Shale Swelling Pressures Using Inhibitive Water Based Muds, SPE 49263 presented at the SPE Annual Technical Conference and Exhibition, New Orleans, September 27-30, (1998) @No $ @ @ Al-Awad N.J and Smart B.G.D., Characterization of Shale-Drilling Fluid Interaction Mechanisms Related to Wellbore Instability, J.

A dynamic simulation was conducted on a crankshaft from six cylinder two-stage oil less compressor. Finite element analysis was performed to obtain the stress magnitude at critical locations at worst load cases. The pressure-volume diagram was used to calculate the load boundary condition in dynamic simulation model, and other simulation inputs were taken from the compressor specification. The dynamic load calculation is done analytically by considering the reciprocating masses and its inertial loads in all cylinders. This load was applied to the FE model in ABAQUS, and boundary conditions were applied according to all loads acting on the crankshaft mounting .The stresses are calculated from FE model and  plotted in Goodman diagram to calculate the factor of safety. Results achieved from aforementioned analysis can be used in fatigue life calculation and optimization of this component. <#LINE#> @ @ Farzin H.

In CI engine, the combustion is heterogeneous and the time allowed for mixing of fuel with air in particular oxygen is very less so there is partial mixing of the fuel which makes the mixture rich at certain places leading to the formation of particulate matter and very leaner at some places leading to formation of NO. Some research outcomes shows that oxygenate when mixed in the fuel prior to combustion can improve the performance and also reduces the emissions. In this research the DEE is mixed with Diesel for 5% and 10%, and the combustion and emission characteristics are analysed. The result shows promising characteristics in performance improvement and Emission reduction. <#LINE#> @ @ Yasufumi Yoshimoto and Masayuki Onodera, Performance of a Diesel Engine Fuelled by Rapeseed oil Blended with Oxygenated Organic Compound, SAE paper number 2002-01-2854 (2002) @No $ @ @ Ho Teng, James C.

We used Ionosonde data for analysis. Data of maximum electron density of F2 layer (NmF2) was collected from NOAA space environment center. With the help of Mat-Lab software wavelet analysis performed. Results of the study showed some unusual perturbations in NmF2 parameter few days before earthquake. This fact can be used as precursory phenomena. It may be due to the emission of energy from the earth rock which propagate upward and perturb the F-region of ionosphere. This study may be useful for earthquake prediction. <#LINE#> @ @ Johnston M., Review of electric and magnetic fields accompanying seismic and volcanic activity, Surv.

With a web browser, one can view web pages that may contain text, images, videos, and other multimedia and navigate between them via hyperlinks. Many formal standards and other technical specifications and software define the operation of different aspects of the World Wide Web, the Internet, and computer information exchange. Many of the documents are the work of the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C), headed by Berners-Lee, but some are produced by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) and other organizations. Usually, when web standards are discussed, the following publications are seen as foundational: Recommendations for markup languages, especially HTML and XHTML, from the W3C. These define the structure and interpretation of hypertext documents. Recommendations for stylesheets, especially CSS, from the W3C. Standards for ECMAScript (usually in the form of JavaScript), from Ecma International. Recommendations for the Document Object Model, from W3C.  Security threats to web sites and web applications (webapps) come in many forms. Data centres and other assets used for hosting web sites and their associated systems need to be protected from all types of threat. Threats should be identified using application threat modelling and then evaluated with a vulnerability assessment. Vulnerabilities can be removed or reduced and countermeasures put in place to mitigate the effects of an incident should the threat be realized. Some of them are security policies, using technology, content filtering. <#LINE#> @ @ NCSA Mosaic — September 10, 1993 Demo. Totic.org. http://totic.org/nscp/demodoc/demo.html.

<#LINE#>Process Simulation Analysis of Quality Management System in Industries<#LINE#>LondhekarMegha@S.<#LINE#>57-60<#LINE#>10.ISCA-RJEngS-2012-058.pdf<#LINE#> Mechanical Department, Jagadambha College of Engineering and Technology, Yavatmal, MS, INDIA<#LINE#>4/9/2012<#LINE#>28/9/2012<#LINE#>  Now a day’s process simulation analysis is known as the key initiative of any quality management system implemented in industries. Most of the industries adopt ISO 9000 clauses and TQM model guidelines to meet specific objectives as well as quality improvement. However by observing Indian scenario it can be easy to depict that most industries are not practicing software’s simulation analysis to predict the behavior of process variation and output.  Present research paper will provide the concept of introducing the process simulation analysis supported by many software tools to support the organization about merits/demerits prior to execution and implementation of process management, the concept suggested in this paper will provide guidelines to many industrial practionors. While initiating process improvement objects. <#LINE#> @ @ Banks, Jerry, ed., Handbook of simulation (New York:John Wiley & Sons, (1998) @No $ @ @ C.M.Sedani, Ramesh R.
