Design of a computerized aquaponic system harnessed with renewable energy[ ]


Aquaponics is a combination of aquaculture (cultivating fish) and hydroponics (growing plants in water without soil). The eco-innovative technology behind the concept is a combination of the two production systems into one. This Computerized aquaponics powered by solar system employs engineering and computing principles. This integrates aquaculture, hydroponics an precision engineering into a single specialized system termed aquaponics for the production of local and high value non genetically modified plant (vegetable, fruits) and non- genetically modified animals (fishes, snails) for human consumption.

A study to assess the knowledge and practice of breast feeding among nursing mothers admitted in a Zonal Military Hospital, Secunderabad[ ]


Adequate nutrition during infancy and early childhood is essential to ensure the growth, health, and development of children to their full potential. Poor nutrition increases the risk of illness, and is responsible, directly or indirectly, for one third of the estimated 9.5 million deaths that occurred in 2006 in children less than 5years of age. Inappropriate nutrition can also lead to childhood obesity which is an increasing public health problem in many countries.

Comparison of Flexsim and Delmia simulation software to reduce current manufacturing layout planning problem[ ]


Today, volume uncertainty and customer requirements are more dynamic due to reduced product lifecycle in manufacturing. Managing uncertain market demand and rapid introduction of new product development are the key focus areas for manufacturers. This adaptability can be achieved only if a manufacturing industry adopts a flexible manufacturing system. The layout planning is an important factor that influences adopting flexible manufacturing system. Since achieving competitive advantage in the uncertain market demand is the focus of many manufacturers, layout modifications should not be a constraint. Thus, the scope of the project is to understand the current problems in layout modification and how the manufacturers can eliminate them using 3D simulation software.

Effect of partial replacement of refined wheat flour with varying levels Cycas flour (Cycas circinalis. L) On Physico-chemical and Sensory attributes of cookies[ ]


A composite flour cookies were prepared by partially replacing (0-30%) refined wheat flour with Cycas flour (cycas circinalis. L). Response Surface Methodology (RSM) was used to optimize the flour composition as well as the baking conditions (temperature and time). The incorporation of cycas flour has significantly affected the physical, chemical and sensorial properties of the cookies. The cookies prepared with composite flour had significantly higher (P <= 0.05) amount of protein, fat, fiber and ash. The physical analysis revealed that thickness and spread ratio decreased with in-crease in addition of cycas flour. The hardness values of cookies made from Cycas flour and control found to be 1.01 N and 4.77 N respectively.

Javed’s Idea of Energy, Matter and Life[ ]


At the time of birth the whole universe was filled with very small capacitors like energy packets. These packets started to combine with one another in series as well as in parallel circuits. Let us suppose a series circuit between two capacitors was made and an equivalent capacitor of low capacitance and energy was formed. Due to its low energy the other capacitors of high energy were attracted towards it and started to combine in long series chains and overall energy of the system started to reduce to more and more low value.

Climate Change Induced Architectural Practice: Responsive Technological Integration for Sustainable Design Solutions[ ]


Increasing urbanisation arising from continuous population and economic growths translate to additional infrastructure, facilities and buildings, to accommodate the emerging needs of the people. However, this is not without its attendant adverse climate change induced anthropogenic effects, largely due to increasing carbon emissions into the atmosphere. Thus, Architects who design such structures need to be weary of the impacts of their products on the environment, and evolve sustainable design solutions to combat any potential undesirable effects. Through literature review, with reference to specific pragmatic cases for illustrations, this paper therefore examines how climate change challenges have influenced architectural practice particularly, integration of emerging technologies, to evolve sustainable design solutions for a healthy environment.

Urban Land Conflict Affecting Talai Squatter Settlement in Kericho County, Kenya[ ]


Land is a pressing concern globally; neither states nor markets provide suitable land for all users. In the context of urban growth and inequality, acute competition for land and the regulatory failures of states often result in conflict, which is sometimes violent, affecting urban authorities and residents. Conflicts are often mentioned in analyses of urban land, but rarely examined in depth. In order to explore the drivers, dynamics and outcomes of urban land conflicts, diverse disciplinary perspectives are discussed, including environmental security, political ecology, legal anthropology, land governance, conflict analysis and management, and urban conflict and violence.
