Vulnerability Assessment and Evaluation of Associated Attacks on Physical and Virtual Networks[ ]


There is no system in the 21st century that has no vulnerability. Most networks seem to be very secure because the vulnerabilities in them are yet to be discovered. However, these vulnerabilities decrease in networks that undergo regular checks and upgrade in their directories with embedded security parameters which have cryptographic primitives. Lack of network checks has fashioned various attack vectors in which hackers exploit to break into the security of private, public and even virtual networks. Network attacks such as brute forcing, man-in-the-middle (MITM) attack, social engineering and Advanced Persistent Threats (APT) occur as a result of the combinations of several vulnerabilities which are embedded in them.

Utilizing Fly Ash and Alccofine for Efficient Soil Stabilization[ ]


The main objective of this research work was to study the engineering characteristics of clay soil. 51.8 million hectares of land area in India are covered with Expansive soil. The property of these expansive soils, in general, is that they are very hard when in dry state, but they lose all of their strength when in wet state. In light of this property of expansive soils, these soils pose problems worldwide that serve as challenge to overcome for the Geotechnical engineers. One of the most important aspects for construction purposes is soil stabilization, which is used widely in foundation and road pavement constructions; this is because such a stabilization regime improves engineering properties of the soil, such as volume stability, strength and durability.

The prediction of moisture adsorption isotherm for commercial sodium bicarbonate powder[ ]


The quality of preserved sodium bicarbonate powder is largely dependent on its moisture content, moisture migration and moisture uptake of the sodium bicarbonate during storage. Therefore, the water activity level, which corresponds to a range of equilibrium moisture contents, must be determined by, for example, the use of moisture isotherms. Sorption isotherms are therefore of great importance in post-harvest procedures, especially for predicting drying and storage, which help to establish the final moisture content of the product under certain environmental condition.

DESIGN AND IMPLEMENTATION OF MULTI-INPUT UNINTERRUPTIBLE POWER SUPPLY[ ]


The paper is on the design and implementation of Multi-Input Uninterruptible Power System (MIUPS). The system [1] [2] consists of the inverter section, the charger, the control circuit and the change over circuit. The inverter changes the DC voltage from the battery to AC voltage; the charger charges the battery when there is supply from the AC mains; the control unit monitors the battery against over charge and over drain; while the change over circuit select the AC input by changing from failed one to available one. The response time to overcome or detect any irregularity in power supply, the ease at which it harnesses various inputs and the ability to quickly change to its internal battery are of keen interest. This write up does not only discuss the design and construction of 1KVA MIUPS but also discusses the operation and limitation of the equipment.
