ANALYZING THE SOURCES AND AFTER-EFFECTS OF JOB BURNOUT[ ]


The present study aims to explain the phenomena of job burnout its determinants and consequences in the organizational context. Burnout is an unpleasant and dysfunctional condition that both individuals and organizations would like to change. Job burnout is a consequence of the perceived disparity between the demands of the job and the resources (both material and emotional) that an employee has available to him or her.

Propaganda of Art for Art’s sake Movement Through Media[ ]


The aim of this research paper is to trace the origin and development of Art for art’s sake movement from Marxist perspective. The origin of Art for art’s movement can be traced back to the late Romanticists who felt themselves misfit in the post-revolutionary bourgeois world of business, profit and industrialisation of the Patriarchal countryside of Europe. Therefore, an insoluble contradiction occurred between the aims of the late Romanticist artists and writers and the conditions of the Post-revolutionary bourgeois capitalist world. However, they became hostile to it, but failed to see any hope of changing it.

MATHEMATICAL MODEL OF HUMAN BEHAVIOR WITH RESPECT TO SECRETION OF A HORMONE[ ]


Mathematical modeling can simply be put as expressing human behavior or activities in the form of a mathematical expressions or equations. Modeling can be used when investigating a system that is too complex, too difficult or sometimes simply impossible to deal with directly. Mathematical modeling deals with representing human activities with Mathematical equations. Such equations often lead to either Ordinary Differential Equations (ODE) or Partial Differential Equations (PDE) depending on the number of variables (parameters) involved.

Use of Building Integrated PV panels (BIPV)as shading device over roof of atrium in temperate and hot humid climates[ ]


The task of this study is to investigate the effect of building integrated photovoltaic panels(BIPV)as roof or a shading device on atriums in temperate climate case of Berlin, Germany and hot humid climate case of Famagusta, Turkish republic of Northern Cyprus. The integration of different types of PV panel on top of buildings in the proper direction is nowadays a very welcomed solution in order to provide sustainable energy. This new technology is adequate for many benefits both in ecological but also economical aspects. The typologies of photovoltaics that companies are proposing to constructors give them the opportunity to use PV panels in several ways. From blind to semi-transparent PV panels we have many differences for example with appropriate optimization measures, the semi-transparent PV top light with 50% radiation transmission rate contributes to a maximum of 5.3% reduction in heating and cooling energy consumption compared with a standard solar roof (blind or non-transparent photovoltaics panels).

Developing an Intelligent Interactive Approach for Multi-objective Optimization Problems[ ]


This paper provides three intelligent algorithms, and combines all of them for solving some interactive multi-objective optimization problems. The hybrid optimization model combines Genetic Algorithm and Bacterial Foraging Optimization (BFO) with Harmony Search (HS) algorithm. This model is being designed and implemented in the hope to improve performance of GA and help BFO to escape from the local minima or maxima. Where, genetic algorithm is search based on the concepts of natural selection and genetics. BFO simulated the life cycles and the foraging behaviors of bacterial, which are called Escherichia coli.

Cricinfo Analysis to find patterns in profiles for Predicting future Captain[ ]


The selection of captain is dependent on the performance of players in terms of various parameters in their areas of expertise. In this thesis we propose a method for measuring qualitative parameters in existing captains’ profile and by developing an ideal profile, we set a threshold, that can be applied any of the player for predicting about whether he can be next captain or not. A real dataset of more than 76 Captain of different countries from Cricinfo is considered for analysis purpose. The findings from our research can be used to improve the quality of information retrieval and decision making. Cricinfo is a large database and having information about large number of players estimated about 50000 players from all over the world. So it can be considerable for different types of experiments and analysis. Our aim in this research work is to search and forecast about behaviors of existing captain profile's data and by building an ideal profile, forecasting about other players, where any other player is suitable for captainship or not.

Incentive for Flare Reduction in Niger Delta – A Techno-economic Approach in the 2018 Reality[ ]


This study showcases the economic benefits of recovering flare gas in the Niger Delta region of Nigeria, using it to generate electricity. In this study, the cost of a natural gas processing plant simulated on ASPEN HYSYS version 8.6 was determined using equipment sizing by the Module Cost Technique. Thereafter a discounted cash flow (DCF) model was setup on Microsoft Excel with data obtained from reliable sources that reflects the 2018 fiscal reality of Nigeria in which discount rate and inflation rate stands at 14% and 14.33% respectively. Using a straight line depreciation covering a project life of 20 years, the DCF reveals a project payout time of 2.99 years, a net present value (NPV) of $128.79 and an internal rate of return (IRR) of 32.36%.

Synthesis and Characterization of Nanostructured Vacuum Evaporated CdInSe Thin Films[ ]


Nano structured thin films having different thickness of indium doped CdSe were deposited by thermal evaporation techniques, onto precleaned amorphous glass substrate at room temperature. The structural properties of films were evaluated by XRD and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). The quantitative analysis was done by Energy Dispersive Analysis for X – Ray to determine atomic % of the material used. The optical band gaps of the films were measured by using optical absorption spectra. The X-ray diffraction analysis confirms that films were polycrystalline in nature having hexagonal structure with a preferential orientation along the (002) plane.
