Kalidasa's Kumarasambhava: A Study In The Context Of Global Warming

Analyzing contemporary issues of Global Warming, the paper deals with Kalidas’s  Kumarasambhava. It discusses the problem of Global Warming earlier raised by an Indian writer in Sanskrit. Focusing on the worst effects of the problem, the epic symbolically suggests the effects of the violation of nature and natural flora and fauna. Today the globalization is a big challenge to the world. It is right that we have been availed with advanced technology and super-developed machines due to the fast and furious process of modernization and globalization.

Assessment Of Soil And Water Quality With Reference To Benthic Communities Of Purna, Navsari, Gujarat

The present investigation aimed to assess the benthic communities with respect to physico-chemical characteristics of water & soil in the Intertidal and fresh water region of Purna, Navsari, Gujarat. The study carried out for the period of 5 months (May-2008 to Sept-2008).The physico-chemical parameters selected for the study were soil moisture, WHC, soil nutrients, organic matter Epiflora was dominated by Diatoms. In Faunal community Polychaete worm, Nematodes, Turbellarian, Molluscans, Mud crab and Mud skipper were found.

Study On Shrimp Farming Technique In Gujarat State

Shrimp farming has been practiced in India for centuries on a traditional manner in certain coastal state. Scientific shrimp farming was developed during the early 1980s. Thousands of hectares of coastal lands were converted into shrimp farming. Shrimp farming activities in Gujarat state are also not uncommon at present.  Gujarat is having 1,600 km long coastline and a vast stretches of brackish water area throughout the coastline which is ideal for shrimp culture.  Shrimp farming activities developed fast in the last decade.

STRUCTURAL, OPTICAL AND ELECTRICAL PROPERTIES OF TITANIUM DIOXIDE NANOPARTICLES

Structure of calcinated TiO2 has been examined by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) analysis. The formation of the single phase TiO2 was confirmed by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and the structural parameters were refined by the Rietveld analysis. A good agreement between observed and calculated X-ray diffraction pattern was obtained from the Rietveld refinement using space group I 41/ amd. The calculated unit cell parameters are used to plot the structure.

A Software To Calculate Crystalline Size By Debye-Scherrer Formula Using VB.NET

X-Ray diffraction is a tool for the investigation of the fine structure of matter. Initially X-Ray diffraction was used only for the determination of crystal structure but now a days the data from X-ray diffraction have also been  used to determine the crystalline size using Debye-Scherrer formula.  Generally one has to deal with limited data because of laborious and time consuming manual methods of calculation. Sometime calculations with lots of data are required in order to determine different crystalline sizes for the statistical analysis or other applications.

EXTRACTION BIAS DEPENDENT PARAMETERS OF NON IDEAL SCHOTTKY DIODE

More than three decades Schottky diodes (rectifying contacts) are widely used in power industry. It is a majority carrier device where minority carrier storage is usually not important. As a result Schottky device have very high switching speeds with minor forward voltage drop making them ideal for output stages of switching power supplies.  Here in this paper the In/p-Si Schottky diode showed non ideal I-V behaviour with an ideality factor 2.12. It may be thought a metal-interface layer-semiconductor (MIS) configuration.

A New Proof Of Menelaus's Theorem Of Hyperbolic Quadrilaterals In The Poincare Model Of Hyperbolic Geometry

In this study, we present a proof of the Menelaus theorem for quadrilaterals in hyperbolic geometry, and a proof for the transversal theorem for triangles.

Performance Analysis For SNR Vs BER Of Optical System Using MLSE Equalizer With Different Modulation Technique

In This paper we present an analytical approach to evaluate the performance analysis of SNR V/s BER of Optical System using MLSE Equalizer in fiber channel through the BPSK, QPSK, 64QAM &16QAM Modulation Technique. Finally we are comparing BER performance in Optical system using MLSE Equalizer through the modulation technique.

QUICK ASSESSMENT OF GROUND WATER BY ELECTRICAL RESISTIVITY SURVEY

Next to air and food, the other most important requirement for existence of mankind is water. Rapid growth in population and industrial development has made it difficult to survive on existing limited water resources. The complex geological formations have made it difficult to locate the large quantities of quality water resources. The surface water level is rapidly depleting and thus has made us rely more and more on ground water sources. DOWSING is the oldest method that is used to locate the ground water resources.

A Comparative Study Of Corporate Governance In Asia

Corporate Governance is the system of structural, procedural and cultural safeguards designed to ensure that a company is run in the long-term interests of its shareholders, as well as, other stakeholders. The Asian financial crisis of 1997-99, and the more recent corporate scandals have illustrated the importance of effective Corporate Governance systems and the linkage to business ethics throughout the world.  This study was undertaken to know whether the Asian countries follow Corporate Governance practices.
