Organised retailers have known about the benefits of high quality lighting for some time, and are aware that quality lighting enhances the perception of value of both merchandise and the retail environments in which it is sold. Contrasts, i.e. the effect of light and dark areas, are de cisive. These contrasts are enhanced by the careful use of directional display lighting. Customer behaviour in retail areas is influenced significantly by perception and a sense of well-being. High quality lighting can greatly enhance the desired traffic flow through a retail space, directing customers to intended point of sale areas. Because light conveys emotions, lends spaces atmosphere and makes it easier for people to find their way around. Quality lighting creates a specific mood for a store that is an integral part of the brand of the retailer, and enhances not only products but the entire experience of the store. The objective of this study was to investigate the contribution of lighting in evoking an atmosphere in the real world, for which a sample size of 60 samples in the age group of 20-25 was selected. The evaluation of variables under study was quantified on a five point likert scale and the correlation with the behavioural response in the form of PAD dimensions (Pleasure, Arousal and dominance) was mapped.

Gas turbines have an important role in power generation and propulsion unit. Turbine blades are the most important components in a gas turbine power plant. Turbine blades are mainly affected due to static loads. Gas turbine blades will subject to high tangential, axial and centrifugal forces during their working conditions. The stress distribution due to the flow of gases and the impact of flow gases are considered. The gas turbine rotor blade was performed to determine the regions of maximum stress and moment which occur on a typical gas turbine engine at variable rotational speeds. The results document the effect of velocities, pressure, temperatures and Mach numbers etc. In this paper the second stage of axial-flow gas turbine rotor blade with holes is created in SolidWorks software and design calculation is computed by MATLAB software. The finite element stress analysis on second stage rotor blade with holes is analysed from ANSYS 14.5 software. Three different models with different number of holes (5, 9 and 13) were analyzed to find out the optimum number of holes for good performance.

Airdrop is necessary in many areas around the world where there are no places to land an aircraft or where grand convoy resupply is either impossible or unsafe. Moreover, airdrop allows delivery of both humanitarian and combat forces to battlefield in a quick way. However, the rapid development of technology brings precision airdrop systems into the table. Compared to the old technology non-precision systems, precision airdrop systems allow the aircraft to gain the possibility to drop loads from high altitudes. It is very difficult to see or hear the aircraft from the ground when precision airdrop systems are released from a height above 20,000 feet AGL (Above Ground Level), which provides a great advantage.[1] This literature review about general discussion of precision airdrop systems article begins with examination of the main canopy. Then it discusses how the system works.

This paper displays plan to the system for the method of characteristics for the cases included. In the last sections, the recommendation of the study and future scope of work taking this work as a base is displayed. A comparable system is set down for different cases including more intricate circumstances like transient inception by pumps, and many time valves closing. Likewise, the model is compared with other studies for validation. In the first section; the requirement for concentrate the water hammer state is set up. Agreeing with the formula provided by the Juokowski equation, the pressure variances formed by unexpected changes in flow speed in a standard water distribution system are of huge amount and possess potential to damage of the system components. By analyzing the water hammer caused by such quick changes in flow conditions, the damage can be diminished. The study on water hammer state instigated when researchers like Newton and Lagrange studied about the propagation of waves in water and it came into light after Juokowski gave expression for pressure surge consistent to a rapid change in flow speed. Afterward, in mid twentieth century Allievi [1] exhibited the differential equations for water hammer state after which several methods have changed for solving water hammer state problems. Then, following a half of century in 1950s Gray [2] introduced the strategy of the method of characteristics for computational study of the Water-hammer problem afterward following 10 years in 1962 V.L. Streeter and C. Lai [3] introduced a paper which broadened Gray’s work and made the method of characteristics more popular. This section also talks about the evolution of methods for solving the water hammer problem, in a in a concise way. In second part, brief summaries for all the writing considered for setting up the last model for method of characteristics are put down, stating the purpose of study and the notable points. In the third part, the water hammer state theory is established beginning with the assumptions involved in classical water hammer theory, display in all the numerical models defined by researchers for water hammer state investigation. Then, the fundamental hyperbolic partial differential equations of continuity and momentum, which oversee the flow conditions during water hammer state for different pipes material, are expressed.

The focus of the current paper is to synthesize available literatures on the integration of remote sensing and geographic information system, specifically the methodological approaches. The first section gives the general background of the study. This was followed by a review on the principles of remote sensing and geographic information system. Then, the practical method for remote sensing and GIS integration was reviewed. This synthesis demonstrates that, the integration of remote sensing and GIS is mutually beneficial. For example, it indicates that, there has been a tremendous increase in demand for the use of remotely sensed data combined with GIS-based data including environmental and socioeconomic data.

India has battled poverty for several decades. The pre-occupation with and glorification of poverty among politician and elite group can be traced back to pre-independence period. In India poverty is considered as fertile land for Indian politics to grow and flourish. The poor segment of society is considered as an asset, vote bank and fertilizer for their political gains and growth. When poverty is curse on the human race, they are taken as blessings for the Indian politicians because in India poverty is highly politicized. This article has critically analyzed how an Indian politician instead of uprooting the poverty from the soil they use the poverty as the means of minting money and making hay during sunshine.

In Time series forecasting, model building is the most time consuming process. Model building for all-time series is a difficult proposition in terms of time consumption when we have to deal with high volumes of time series. So, clustering the time series can help grouping similar time series in together. There are many available algorithms for creating time series clusters. We have used DTW algorithm to get DTW distance matrix and this distance matrix is used to create hierarchical clusters [4] of Time series. DTW algorithm finds the minimal distance between pairs of sequences by allowing flexible shift in alignment to compute pair wise DTW distances. Once time series clustering is done we need to fit the model to Time Series clusters. In this paper, a novel algorithm is proposed to fit different models to Time Series clusters. Different Time Series models are evaluated for each cluster by using this proposed algorithm. This ultimately reduces model building time and hence overall forecasting time.

Human resource planning and development enable demand forecasting of manpower in the right ways. It is a planned strategic move to approach step by step. It is organized with the designed goals, objectives, mission and vision; to accomplish the target fixed. Managing changes in the organizations are necessary in the current times. It calibrates to the competition. It creates a stagnant organization amply kinetic and mobile. It happens by virtue of adopting cataclysmic changes seamlessly; in consonance to the business environment. The case in place is an example of human resource planning and strategic intervention in British Airways. This is a paradigm to envisage the facets of changes that occurred in the organization. It a critical analysis to study the organizational processes and architecture (Haines, S. (Ed), 2006). In fact, the two books namely, ‘Third Wave’ and ‘Future Shock’ of Alvin Toffler propagated an ethos for change and highlighted its importance. It revolutionized the ideology of people to shift their focus. Both the books stated that “Change is the process which pervades our life and it is important to look at it, not merely from the grand perspectives of history, but also from the vantage point of living, breathing individuals who experience it”. Therefore, change is believed to be the only thing that is constant and change is inevitable. British Airways had to adopt change for mitigating its fiscal crisis and revived the shocking people from a stalemate phase of the company, but the process that it passed through was scientifically model driven. In reading the organizational charts of British Airways, we can explore an overview of the organizational profile. The organizational processes that were needed to be changed for meeting the offing changes in the environment in 1980 are quite obvious. It happened with British Telecom too. It happened in the British political and people’s mandate. Companies went through the changes in the business philosophy. Core mission changed in the organizations. It was a time of reformation and reconstitution of the organizations across the globe and was in the path of privatization process (Baron, J.N. & Kreps, D.M., 1999). Changes happened with the organizational structure, organizational cultural-mix, recruitment-job placement-training, and promotion policy. Essentially these all and other aspects relevantly provided ideas for studying the organizational change in British Airlines. It also catered to changes in the HR policy, organizational architecture and organizational culture and so forth (Baren, D.R. & Schuler, R.S., 2004). These processes being inter-related also influenced each other. They critically examined to ascertain the issues and challenges, bottlenecks and benefits, and facilitated improvisation in the performance of British Airways. These all contributed for designing the organizational architecture in consonance to the need. Equity-based privatization process, reformative steps, re-engineering and competition call for precision in the decision making of the organization. These aspects being treated rightly give a picture of an intelligent future organization.

The harmful wastes are generated from hospitals sites. As per the utility of hospital, each one has its own profile for the production and carrying of waste according to its locality. Now days it is big issue to manage hospital waste and its transportation from health and environmental risks point of view. This article gives a about generation of waste from a five hospital nearby region. The plan was suggested for the management of hospital waste from starting point to the collection areas and final disposal. The hospital generated waste should be controlled from the sources of generation to the final disposal. The plan presented here is an important for the proper management of hospital waste. It provides an appraisal of the profile of generation, collection, transportation and storage of healthcare waste in a hospital. This plan which was efficient and cost effective can be used in any medical establishments.

While undertaking the valuation of any company there are three broad approaches to valuation namely Asset approach, Income approach and Market approach, for relative valuations. Peers taken should be as close as possible to the company being valued. It is preferred that the peer companies should have a similar Business model, Accounting practices, Growth pattern Return on capital invested Financial and operational risk. Accordingly three peer companies were selected for the study. The objective was to know the valuation process for the prospective company in case of initial public offering. The financial data for three years was collected from secondary source and was subjected relative valuation techniques to know the approximate price for offering shares to the public. The present work contributes to emerging market literature on equity valuation

The research scrutinized the effects of varying amount of sodium chloride (NaCl) addition and type of curing water on the workability, density and the compressive strength of concretes produced from Portland limestone cement (PLC) at 7, 14, 21 and 28 days. The percentages of NaCl added to the concrete mix were 0, 2, 6 and 10 %. A constant water / binder ratio of 0.5 was used for all mixes. The results showed that raw and 2 % NaCl concrete mixes have similar slump and reasonably competitive strength properties. Generally, the performance of concretes decreases with increasing NaCl contents and concretes cured in sea water have poorer results compared to those cured in ordinary water. It is recommended that the common cement (PLC) may not be used for constructions around sea areas as they would be prone to more deterioration, but pozzolans or other chloride resisting cements should be applied.

The research examined the physico – chemical properties of a shallow well water lined with fresh concrete in Ado – Ekiti, Ekiti State. Two separate samples were collected and analyzed using standard method (s) of examination of water quality (ies) - one from the shallow well lined with in-situ concrete and the other from an old existing adjoined ringed well. Parameters studied included chemical and physical ones, which are pH, Electrical Conductivity (EC), Total Dissolved Solids (TDS), Turbidity, Total Hardness, Chloride, Carbonate and Bicarbonate, Alkalinity, Calcium, Iron, Nitrate, Colour, Odour and Temperature. The physicochemical parameters of the old existing adjoined ringed shallow well water were within while most of the shallow well lined with in-situ concrete were beyond the permissible limits for potable water. However, remarkable reductions in the concentration levels of these parameters were observed when same sample were subjected to boiling and water guard treatment. Thus, the shallow well lined with in-situ concrete water should not be hurriedly used for domestic purpose. In case of urgency in demand for water, such shallow well water should be subjected to treatment.

The study assessed the economic influence of oil pipeline breakages on economy of Nigeria. The major objectives of the research were to determine the effects of economic values of oil and gas resources lost due to incidences of pipeline breakages on the gross Domestic Product (GDP) contribution of the oil and gas sector as well as the influence of the casual factors of pipeline breakages which include pipeline rupture, fire explosion, acts of sabotage and oil theft induced pipeline breakages on the aggregates financial resources (economic value) lost due pipeline breakages. The study also determined the trend of oil pipeline breakages induced economic risks. Time series data was obtained from the pipeline products marketing company (PPMC) and the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) on the economic values of crude and refined oil and gas resources lost due to pipeline breakages and the GDP contribution of the oil and gas sector. The multiple regression method cum trend analysis were used to analyze the data obtained using the GDP oil and gas and the aggregate economic values of oil and gas resources lost over the years as dependent variables. It was found that the economic cost of pipeline breakages had significant effect on the GDP contribution of the oil and gas sector. The quantitative model expressing the economic effects of pipeline breakages on the GDP contribution of the oil and gas sector is: GDPOG = 3139557.7 – 124.1VRPPL - 2.93VCROL + 283.8REMCOST + e. Similarly, the mathematical model which expresses the relationship between the dependent variable (aggregate economic value of oil resources lost) and the explanatory variables (rupture, oil theft, sabotage and pipeline fire) is: AGGVOLOS = 10647.29 + 549.4RUPTURE – 6.44OILTHEFT + 124.1SABOTAGE – 67.6FIRE. The trend analysis indicates that there is an increases trend in aggregate pipeline breakages inducing economic risks over the period. Recommendations were given based on the research findings.

This research paper presents a microcontroller based digital door lock security system using keypad which will provide complete security solution to lives and properties at homes, schools and offices. The security system contains a 4X4 keypad input unit for entering the Personal Identification Number (PIN) and a display unit in form of Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) for visual display of information. It also contain a servo motor that serves as a switching for locking and unlocking the door and a programmed microcontroller that processes the input information and take appropriate action. When a user enters a PIN into the security system installed at any entrance, the system captures the PIN and compares it with the stored PINs for a match. If the captured PIN matches with any of the stored PINs, access granted is displayed on the LCD and the door opens; otherwise, access denied is displayed on the LCD and the door remains closed. For change of PIN, the user presses # button then the system asks for current PIN and matches it with stored PINs for a match. If a match was found, the user will be asked to enter the new PIN twice, else the user is asked for the current PIN again. The system recorded 100% success rate (SR) access granted to registered users and 100% failure rate (FR) for non-registered users. It is also system is cheap, affordable, small and relatively easy enough to install with just a couple of steps.

In recent years, with the growing shortage of wood from the forest, the search for alternative fibre producing plant material has been initiated in many countries of the world. The generation of fast growing high biomass yielding plant is thought to be one of the solutions to mean the shortage of cellulosic material. However, certain agricultural plants producing high biomass are found to be suitable substitute. Among them ground nut shell may serve partly as an alternative resource. In this study we extracted cellulosic fibre from ground nut shell by kraft’s process and we compared other source of cellulosic fibrous materials. In application we produced paper from ground nut shell. This is going to be more effective and alterative for cellulosic fibre in future.

This paper presents the application of iris scan to improve the accuracy of existing face recognition system using computer vision and machine learning. The motivation of this research work was initiated with the desire to address the problems identified in the current trend (face recognition system) after an exhaustive literature review of some existing works relating to human vision technology. Success and limitations were noted of which we single out the major setback of the existing system (inability to recognize identical twin, caricature faces and faces with plastic surgery). The main aim is to present a novel literature that improves the result of existing face recognition system using a new approach (iris scan). The new face recognition process includes face detection, iris localization, histogram equalization, edge detection, normalization, feature extraction among other image processing techniques, training, classification and label. Some existing works will be reviewed and analyzed. The new system will be implemented using image acquisition tool, image processing tool, computer vision tool and mathlab. The implementation and result will be tested and result recorded.

Corporate governance in the business setting alludes to the frameworks of rules, practices, and cycles by which organizations are represented. Thusly, the corporate administration model followed by a particular organization is the conveyance of expectations by all members in the association. Administration guarantees everybody in an association follows fitting and straightforward dynamic cycles and that the interests of all partners (investors, chiefs, workers, providers, clients, among others) are safeguarded. The reason for corporate governance is to assist with building a climate of trust, straightforwardness and responsibility vital for encouraging long haul speculation, monetary steadiness and business honesty, in this way supporting more grounded development and more comprehensive social orders. Corporate Governance manages the manner in which the financial backers ensure they get a fair profit from their speculation. In Corporate Governance, there is a reasonable qualification between the job of the proprietors of an organization (the investors) and the administrators (the leader directorate) with regards to settling on powerful essential choices. In the present market-situated economy and with the impacts of globalization, the significance of corporate governance is developing. This is because of the reality of governance being a significant approach to guaranteeing straightforwardness that ensures the interests of all investors (large or little) are defended.
