One of the assumptions for an economic order quantity model is that all items received in an order are of perfect quality is not always fulfilled. Some of the items are of defective quality in the lot received. Another assumption is that as soon as items are received, payments are made. In today’s competitive the supplier allows certain fixed period known as permissible delay for payment to the retailer for settling the amount of items received. Keeping this reality, a deterministic inventory model with imperfect quality is developed when deterioration rate is different during a cycle. Here it is assumed that demand is a function of time and price. Numerical example is taken to support the model. Sensitivity analysis is also carried out for parameters.

August 2017
Page No.: 10-16

India volatility index, IVIX captures behavioral and psychological aspects of traders. The purpose of introducing IVIX is to avail new instrument for trading and hedge through it. It is believed that investors perception about the Nifty 50 in near term can be indicated using IVIX. Here an attempt is made to understand the relation between IVIX and market return using t –Test for r. The study also aims to understand the predictive ability of IVIX using t – test for slope, which can be helpful to the investors to take the decision. The study provided sufficient evidence that stock market returns are negatively associated with the Volatility Index. The negative correlation prevailing between IVIX and NIFTY 50, would give an opportunity to investors to use IVIX as a directional tool to know the future movement in NIFTY 50. The t – Test for slope finds that there is significant relationship between IVIX and NIFTY50 which implies that predictive ability of IVIX is high. .

Cohesive City: Built Environment and Active Transport

Ar. Bhagyalaxmi Madapur, Dr. Mamatha P Raj

Page No.: 17-24

Cotemporary development has transformed the city structure and urban fabric. Several studies in public health domain contemplate premeditated active transport as one of the major decisive factor in enhancing urban dwellers’ quality of life. Active transport and human powered transportation includes walking, cycling and variants such as cycle rickshaws, skateboards, push scooters, hand carts, etc. These modes provide both transportation and recreation and are especially important for short trips that form the largest share of trips in urban areas. Since the built environment is the setting in which the use of active transport manifests, if a sufficient condition is not provided, it may deprive the individuals of any opportunity for the activity to occur at all. This is why it is important to study the built environment as a factor of walkability and develop knowledge about creating urban environments that are conducive for active transport. This paper discusses active transport factors at various levels. Further, the paper dwells on investigating the attributes of built environment at the street and building level.

MHD Chemically Reacting and Radiating Nanofluid Flow over a Vertical Cone Embedded in a Porous Medium with Variable Properties

P.Yogeswara Reddy, Dr.G.S.S. Raju
August 2017
Page No.: 25-34

In this study, we examine the combined effects of thermal radiation, chemical reaction on MHD hydromagnetic boundary layer flow over a vertical cone filled with nanofluid saturated porous medium under variable properties. The governing flow, heat and mass transfer equations are transformed into ordinary differential equations using similarity variables and are solved numerically by a Galerkin Finite element method. Numerical results are obtained for dimensionless velocity, temperature, nanoparticle volume fraction, as well as the skin friction, local Nusselt and Sherwood number for the different values of the pertinent parameters entered into the problem. The effects of various controlling parameters on these quantities are investigated. Pertinent results are presented graphically and discussed quantitatively. The present results are compared with existing results and found to be good agreement. It is found that the temperature of the fluid remarkably enhances with the rising values of Brownian motion parameter (Nb).

Modeling Fabrication and Testing of Artiﬁcial Gecko Adhesion using Multi Layer Fbrillar Structure

Ameya P. Nijasure, Priam V. Pillai
August 2017
Page No.: 35-37

The idea of designing a micro level artiﬁcial gecko adhesive structure is inspired from ability of geckos to climb any surface. Gecko can climb any rough or smooth surface because of its hierarchical structure present on feet which functions as a smart adhesive [1]. The key parameter that affects gecko adhesion are pattern periodicity of a synthetic setae, hierarchical structure, length, diameter, angle, size, stiffness of end tips and ﬂexibility of a base [2]. The design and fabrication of number of single and multi-level hierarchical pattern were performed. CO2 LASER cutting machine having power of 60 W is used to manufacture moulds. The mould is fabricated from methyl methacrylate sheets of different thickness 3 mm to 10 mm. Liquid silicone polymer PDMS is used as a cast material. Various patterns having dimensionsupto200 micrometer with different tip shapes and geometries were fabricated. For single level patterns like dense pattern, mushroom shape pattern and wedge pattern (lamellar structure) were fabricated. Attempts were made to design and fabricate Multi-level hierarchical structure patterns that mimics gecko like foot structure. These micro level artiﬁcial gecko structure have large scope of applications such as climbing robots, non-sticky adhesion tapes, military surveillance and even medical applications.

Seam Carving Approach for Multirate Processing of Digital Images

Madhukar. B. N., Aravinda. K., K. S. Madhu Babu, Manoranjan. B. R.
August 2017
Page No.: 38-41

This paper presents a new approach called Seam Carving for multirate signal processing of digital images. Increasing and decreasing the sizes of digital images are common place in day-to-day image processing. These methods involve long procedures and sometimes consume more time for getting implemented. Whereas, using the Seam Carving method eradicates the excess time involved in upsampling and downsampling a digital image considerably as this method is straightforward and simple to implement. This method comes in handy when we are dealing with large medical images and remotely sensed images. This technique is applied on standard images and its performance is analyzed. The entire work was implemented using Matlab R2017a software package.

Numerical Investigations on Blast Protection System with Metallic Tube Core Sandwich Panels

K. Uma Maheswari
August 2017
Page No.: 42-45

Effect of blast loads from explosion can be mitigated by using thick armor systems that are often heavy and significantly increase the self-weight of the structure. In the design of structure for blast protection, sacrificial claddings which consist of high energy absorbing elements are used. A sandwich type protective structure consists of light weight core which is often used for blast mitigation. The choice of core type has an influence on the performance of sandwich panel. The cores can be of wood, foam material and tubular elements. In this study, behavior of sandwich panel with square tubular core is investigated through numerical studies. Panel is made of mild steel having top plate dimension of 150 mm x 150 mm x 2.5 mm; bottom plate of 150 mm x 150 mm x 5 mm and square tube core of 12.5 mm x 12.5 mm with 0.6 mm thickness. A finite element model is developed and validated using experimental results in literature. Parametric studies are carried out using the validated finite element model. By varying the tube length of the core, the responses of the panels in terms of energy absorption and reaction forces are compared.

Development of Renewable Energy based Hybrid System for Electricity Generation-A Case Study

Robinson P, Ashwin C Gowda, Syed Sameer, Shahnawaz Patil
August 2017
Page No.: 46-52

Energy demand always lags energy supply in developing countries, which results in energy crisis. The conventional energy sources are finite and exhaustible. The solution to problem of energy crisis is utilization of renewable energy. Renewable energy sources are usually found in small scale, decentralized with regard to different geographical distribution, transition to renewable energy sources is viable option as the price of oil and gas continues to fluctuate. As an alternative to custom, onsite construction of centralized power plants, renewable systems based on PV arrays, windmills, Biofuel energy based systems or small hydropower, can be mass-produced “energy appliances” capable of being manufactured at low cost and tailored to meet specific energy loads and service conditions. , to make optimum utilization of renewable energy there exists a need to integrate the different renewable energy systems. The present work involves development of Renewable Energy based hybrid system for electricity generation that can supply desired power continuously throughout the year irrespective of fluctuation of energy available from standalone systems. The energy assessment has been done using Homer simulation tool for developing small solar-wind hybrid system, performance evaluation has been done.

Kinetic Analysis of TL Spectrum of ϒ-IrradiatedSrAl₂O₄:Eu²⁺, Dy³⁺ Nanophosphor

Dr. Devendra Prasad
August 2017
Page No.: 58-61

Thermoluminescence is a simple technique for studying the distribution of artificially created or naturally occurring point defects. In present work we are reanalyzing the Thermoluminescence response of Eu²⁺, Dy³⁺ doped SrAl₂O₄ nanophosphor at different irradiation dose of ϒ-rays, in accordance with new method of analysis. Orders of kinetics for different glow curves are recalculated. Order of kinetics values are not same as already reported in literature. As per new model order of kinetics depends on extent of retrapping and from reanalysis we can infer that all the reported TL responses of material under consideration are retrapping dominant process.

Parul Jadon, Darpan Anand, Jayash Sharma
August 2017
Page No.: 62-66

This research aims to study the existing password scheme and to design and develop a new improved graphical password scheme. A novel protection primitive is presented in view of strong AI problems namely a new family of graphical password scheme built up on top of captcha technology, which we call Captcha as graphical password (CaRP). CaRP is both a captcha and graphical password scheme. CaRP addresses number of security issues altogether for example, online guessing attacks, relay attacks and if combined with dual-view technologies shoulder-surfing attacks. CaRP likewise offers a novel way to deal with address the notable image hotspot problem in well-known graphical password systems for example, Pass Points.

Customer Satisfaction and Services Providing a Competitive Edge over Others

Abhi Mitra
August 2017
Page No.: 80

Looking into the term marketing with a bit of brevity shows us that at the very existence of the term it has been all about providing the needy what they need with in order to fulfill what is required by them in order to have a proper survival in terms of living a satisfactory life. A marketer more or less shares upon the highlights or the characteristics of a product to the one who needs the product in any ways possible making the customer realize on to how a particular product can solve the problem or need they possess in their lives, how is that going to affect their day to day living and it can be in any domain spread across attractive fashion trends or sugar less and cholesterol free food or some electronic goodie that could make their life much more simpler that what it is now. Therefore it could be summarized that a marketer more or less serves as a link in getting the needy what he/she needs the link may not be the marketer all the time it could be advertisements, campaigns, internet but the very representation of the information of the product to the outside world is where the marketer or marketing team plays the most important role, strategizing concepts, bringing in ideas, market research, analytics and a lot more. A very important part if we tend to take away from above written lines is the fact that at the center of whatever a marketer does lies the customer therefore his/her satisfaction on to using a certain goods is what transforms the good or the one producing that good into a brand. Bringing in new ideas will always have the jargons named customer satisfaction and services in them because without providing adequate services to the customer the retention of them would not be easy which could hinder the process of a particular company becoming a brand. Looking into why do we really need to do this after our product gets sold out? Tells us the fact how making in of a relationship between the company and customer makes things much easier, getting rid of a complicated marketing process. Maintaining proper relationships creates loyalty from the side of a customer which helps us in many ways, most important of them being getting of invaluable insights on the product sold which could later help in strategizing, advertising, bettering of product etc. Services and support provided to the customer can be in the forms of returns of product, solving problems (technical/nontechnical), providing attractive offers on specific product to loyal customers, analyzing and working upon reviews and problems observed, researching upon products of the same genre and improving the customer satisfaction by modifying what lacks in terms of other competitors making an experience worth having by the customer. When we get to apply the things written above into our product it helps customers like the company, creating out trends and increasing the potential of what can be a huge breakdown into the market. Trend creation now a days has become very important in order to increase the selling rates of product. The same is very visible with the top mobile brands now a days introducing a concept of flash sale for their flagship products, the main reason why the brands are constantly able to maintain the consistency of conducting flash sale is the fact that the product when in the hands of the customer provides a power packed performance from the very start of usage creating customer satisfaction at its best transforming the whole scenario into a trend! The focus of research here is to work upon the intricacies on how to make more out of the fact that customer support and satisfaction can really create a competitive advantage over others by conducting proper research and analysis of customer behavior and also how based upon this how market and trend behavior actually tends to happen. In the past few years as seen with the implementation of lot of new and supportive things by the government the market has tend to become more and more dynamic in nature therefore tracing the right mix of what can make a brand successful is demanding quite a lot of effort by fellow researchers, the whole process would likely tend to involve field work conducting surveys and inducing case study results on specific genre of product which at last serves as to how terms like customer satisfaction and support can really turn out to be a game changer for any of the brand who implements the same. The process would also tend to produce models which could make the process easier on to evaluate if at all there are any flaws in the existing system being implemented, the model would possess add-ins in terms of detailed facts and figures with proper analysis upon inputs and outputs that would tend to produce the targeted results. Apart from this flaw detection and solving techniques based on the experience a fellow researcher would come in touch with while conducting his/her research. Therefore making a product transform into something that every customer would want to experience in near future by providing efficient ways and means of doing so in form of research analysis and results .

Impact of Organisational behaviour and HR Practices on Employee Retention in Parcel Service Sector with Special Reference to Tamilnadu

N. Sumathi, S. Parimala
August 2017
Page No.: 81-83

I. INTRODUCTION

Roads are constituted as the most significant component of India’s Logistics Industry, accounting for 60 percent of the total freight movement in the country. A majority of players in this industry are small entrepreneurs running their family businesses. As a result, Man Power Development Investments that pay off in the longer term, have been minimised respectively. Moreover, these businesses are typically controlled severely by the proprietor and his / her family and consequently, making it unattractive for the professionals. Poor working conditions, Low pay scales relative to alternate careers, poor or non-existent Manpower Policies and prevalence of unscrupulous practices have added to the segment's woes for seeking employment. Thus, it could be rightly stated that the Transportation, Logistics, Warehousing and Packaging Sector is considered an unattractive career option and fails to attract and retain skilled manpower. Many Organizations have failed to recognize that Human Resources play an important role in gaining an immense advantage in today’s highly competitive Global Business Environment. While all aspects of managing Human Resources is important, Employee Retention continues to be an essential part of Human Resource Management activity that help the Organizations to achieve their goals and objectives.

Features of International Marketing

Prof. Ms. Shubhangi Vitthal Gaikwad
August 2017
Page No.: 95-98

I. INTRODUCTION

International Marketing is an important perception for various economies and countries of the World. The 90’s decade saw a significant change in the structure of International Marketing. Technology has changed with many new advancements and innovations. This has resulted in having better transport system, good communication methods which in turn has brought the whole world together and made it so small. Liberalization, privatization and globalization have made the term Global Market very significant in nature. This meant company could produce larger quantity of goods at cheaper rates just because of technical and technological changes. That’s why many companies are now forced to look beyond their domestic boundaries to get entry in global markets. Newer market meant bigger challenge to conquer them. This has made international marketing indispensable.

Effects of Varying Molarity in Fly Ash Based Concrete

Pallavi Jakate, Sanjeev Verma, Sourabh Asange
August 2017
Page No.: 102-105

To use waste materials as alternatives in construction industry is an innovative thought. Now a day’s many wastes are used in construction industry like in cement production, for manufacturing of concrete and also for manufacturing of bricks. In all types of thermal power plants large amount of fly ash is librated. Which causes air pollution. So to minimize the quantity of generated waste material we are using it in construction. In this paper fly ash from different sources are taken to prepare the concrete. And in this cement is 100% replaced and for creating the bond in it NaOH and Na₂SiO₃ solution is used. Which form geopolymerisation process and acts as a replacement of cement in the mix.
In the present work, OPC is totally replaced, But cement is working as a binder in the concrete mix. The main task is now to form another binder in the mix, as there is 0% cement. Hence, NaOH (Sodium hydroxide), Na₂SiO₃ (Sodium silicate in the form of flakes), super plasticizer (Sulphonated naphthalene polymer based super plasticizer) is used in the distilled water. By using NaOH & Na₂SiO₃ in distilled mix in the concrete, polymerization process takes place which form gel in the mix and which works as a binder in it, after making concrete specimens of 8M (Molarity) & 12M (Molarity) with the different fly ashes, specimens are treated with ambient (temperature) curing at 7 days and 28 days. And at the age of 7 and 28 days strength is tested (Compressive and Flexural strength)
After the (specimens) test results, it is concluded that NTPC Sipat fly ash based specimen gives more satisfactory results of compressive and flexural strength as compared to GMR Tilda fly ash based specimen. And also at 12 Molarity concentration of NaOH solution compressive and flexural strength increases as compared to 8 Molarity. Hence it is said that while increasing the concentration of NaOH solution in terms of Molarities (8M to 12M), strength of the specimens increases.

An online oil spill advisory(OOSA) system was developed for the first time in India, at Indian National Centre for Ocean Information Services (INCOIS) to serve the coastal community, regulatory authority and oil spill responders. It is achieved by triggering the oil spill trajectory model through web-interface. OOSA receives the inputs from the users in html feeds. Once after the submission of inputs, it automatically triggers the oil spill trajectory model and delivers the drift pattern of the pollutant at regular intervals, without the support from modeling community or officials of INCOIS. It is completely an automated set up. The system comprised the diagnostic mode of General National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Operational Modeling Environment(GNOME) in batch, which is triggered through web interface with the details such as, location, date & time of the spill, quantity, type of the oil spilled. The forecasted wind forcing and the current forcing obtained from our ocean state forecast(OSF)laboratory, were tuned and set in the prescribed format on daily operational basis. The generated trajectory is layered automatically on a webmap, so that the zones that are likely to get affected are known. Trajectory predictions were made online for the oil spill occured at Sundarbans delta during 09.12.2014 to 15.12.2014. The oil slicks were noticed within 1.3 km from the predicted locations. This paper explains the simulation of an oil spill trajectory model for getting the drift pattern of the pollutant at sundarbans delta, through web interface. The method of interpreting the results are also explained. This OOSA system is made available online, so that the users can utilize this during oil spills, mock drills and for preparing the local contingency plans. This system will also guide the oil spill responders, to manage and plan the response activities during the event of an actual or a hypothetical oil spill.
