Goa is a famous International tourist destination and attracts around 2 million tourists annually. Tourism is generally limited along the coastal belt of Goa, while mining is more focused in the midland of Goa. The groundwater in the State is mainly used for drinking and industrial purposes followed by agriculture to some extent. The open cast iron ore mining in Goa had induced significant changes in groundwater quality and quantity. The objective of the present study was to assess the impact of mining activities on the qualitative scenario of ground water in the study area. The monitoring of groundwater quality was done at fourty five groundwater sampling locations on a seasonal basis (i.e. post-monsoon, winter, summer, and monsoon) from October 2011 to September 2012. Assessment of Ground water quality status was done by using the Water Quality Index method, which is an effective tool to assess spatial and temporal changes in ground water quality. Based on the descriptive categories of WQI values observed, all (100%) the sampling locations in the study area were observed with very good category.Keywords

Polyurethane (PU)-based pressure-sensitive adhesive (PSA) tapes are commonly used during surgery. Such devices made for biomedical applications must be biocompatible and biologically safe while in use in the human body as their ingredients may leach off of a device into an adjacent tissue and can harm the body during or after application. In the present study, various methods required for biocompatibility establishment, e.g. cytotoxicity, irritation and sensitization for a device, have been analysed and presented following suitable specifications. The study also emphasizes on the developmental and curing mechanism of biomedical adhesive tape by electron beam (e-beam) irradiation.References

The assimilative potential of the atmosphere entails the capacity of the atmosphere to accept and dissipate the pollutant discharge without exceeding the standard limits. The evaluation of assimilative potential is important because it is a useful tool for the area-based management of air pollution and to mitigate the pollution level. The assimilative potential of the atmosphere can be represented in two ways: one as the ventilation coefficient and the other as the dispersion potential of emission loads discharged into the region. The ventilation coefficient is directly proportional to the assimilation potential of the atmosphere and can be computed using meteorological parameters. In the second approach, the assimilative capacity can be estimated in terms of permissible emission load that is the difference between the permissible and the existing pollutant concentration levels. The existing concentration levels can either be monitored or predicted using an appropriate dispersion model. For this study the assimilated potential of the atmosphere was estimated in terms of potential pollution load by comparing the predicted concentration of PM10 at 14 discrete receptor points using the American Meteorological Society EPA Regulatory Model (AERMOD) dispersion model. The investigation clearly inferred that, the area under consideration has a fair assimilative capacity.Keywords

Ceramics and metals are two of the oldest established classes of technologically useful materials. While metals dominate engineering applications, ceramics have some attractive properties compared to metals, which make them useful for specific applications. The properties of individual ceramics and metals can vary widely; however, the characteristics of most materials in the two classes differ significantly. Joining of Ceramics with Metals/Alloys is difficult because of the difficulty of mismatching of Coefficient of Thermal Expansion of materials formed in weld pool with components to be joined. Difficulties arise if ceramics sublime rather than melt or the metal undergoes phase changes on cooling. Joints between a metal and ceramic are becoming increasingly important in the manufacturing of a wide variety of technological product. But joining ceramics to metallic materials often remains an unresolved or unsatisfactorily resolved problem. Technological advances are extending the applications for bonded Ceramic-Metal/Alloys components and demanding more rigorous performance characteristics..Successful application of ceramics in many devices and structures requires some type of ceramic metal joining. Ceramic-metal seals are used extensively in a wide variety of applications. Examples include vacuum tubes, high voltage feedthroughs, transistor packages, sapphire-metal windows, rocket ignitor bodies and many others. Newer joining applications include engine components, such as the Si3N4 turbocharger rotor joined to a metal shaft now being produced commercially, multilayer electronic devices that comprise both ceramics and electrodes, electroding and metallizing of hybrid microcircuit substrates, and ceramic-metal composites. All applications require a high-strength metal-ceramic bond. Many new techniques have been developed for successful joining of ceramics to metals; Metal-ceramic joining has slowly but steadily become an important manufacturing step. New joining methods and newer approaches to conventional methods have been developed aiming at joints characterized by improved reliability, and interfaces capable of withstanding high-temperature resistance with minimum residual stresses. Some of the Technological advanced Techniques for joining Ceramics to metals are Ultrasonic Joining, Transient Liquid Phase Bonding, Microwave Joining Infiltration Processes, Brazing.Keywords

The present study describes the comparative assessment of Particle size distribution profiles of Coal Combustion Residues from two thermal power stations of Korba, Chattisgarh, India. Knowledge about Particle size is indispensable to determine the possibility of usage of these Coal Combustion Residues in various applications. Coal combustion Residues of CSEB-E power plants were found to have better particle size distribution profile than CSEB-W power plant. CSEB-E power plant had AMD from 15.83 to 66.91 and CSEB-W 49.48 to 75.36. The particle size analysis reveals that the samples which have the highest undersize percent by volume in the particle size range of <45 are useful as fillers in construction materials. They may also be used in geotechnical applications, bulk utilization through back filling, reclamation of waste degraded land and for stowing in underground mines.Keywords

Objectives: This work assesses the relationship between Gross Domestic Product, Foreign Tourist Arrivals, Gross Domestic Product and Employment in India over the period 2002 to 2017. The other objective is to observe the growth and performance of tourism in Gross Domestic Product of India. To study the different tourism policies and identify the best policies or suggestions for government of India.
Methods/Analysis: This study has used the Karl Pearson method for calculating the Coefficient of Correlation. The coefficients R12,R13,R14 & R24 have been calculated and these are between the 1.Gross Domestic Product, 2. Foreign Tourist Arrivals, 3. Foreign Exchange Earning, 4. Employment. The P.E. Maximum Limit, Minimum Limit, S.E., Significant of |r| and ‘t’ Test are also used to calculate the findings of the study.
Findings: The study finds that the coefficient of correlation between foreign tourist arrivals and gross domestic product i.e. R12 for the 1st period of study i.e. 2000-05 and in the 3rd period of study i.e. 2012-17 is highly positive and significant. Which clearly means that the gross domestic product of India depends upon foreign tourist arrivals? As it is observed in the 2nd period of i.e. 2006-11, the coefficient of correlation R12 is moderate positive &insignificant. According to the economic review of India, this was recession, yet then the coefficient of correlation which is moderate positive shows that the Indian gross domestic product depends upon foreign tourist arrivals whether which was decreased as compare to 1stperiod & 3rd periods of our observation. The resulted provided by R12 are also explained by the coefficient of determination i.e. r2. The value of r2, in the 1st period of study 2000-05,2nd period of study 2006-11 & 3rd period of study 2012-17 is 65.60%, 50% & 88% respectively. It clearly means that the variation in gross domestic product is highly in the 3rd period & lowest in the 2nd period of the study. As 2nd period of study was economic recession, yet then the variation in gross domestic product is not less than 50%. The employment was also increased in the 1st & 3rd period due to increment in the foreign tourist arrivals shown by the value of R24.

Sign language, which is a method of communication for the hearing-impaired community, conveys meaning through manual communication and body language rather than through sound. This paper describes a Punjabi text to sign language translation method in prototype form. The suggested method accepts Punjabi text as input and produces Sign Language equivalents using synthetic animations. This system will help to disseminate information to deaf people in public utility places like railways, banks, hospitals, etc. This will also act as an educational tool in learning Sign Language.Keywords
