 Abstract

In this modern era of engineering education, teaching learning process must be taken in an effective way to enrich the knowledge of engineering community. The traditional teaching methods are not gaining much attention towards teaching young engineers. Hence, to fulfill the gaps laid by the traditional teaching approach almost every engineering faculty and institutions adopting various interactive teaching and learning methods. The tutorial based teaching is one among them and widely used one. The tutorial is a class which has student strength of 20 to 30 only, where the tutor can give individual attention to every student to improve their learning and problem solving skills. For many decades in Indian education, the tutorial is successful methodology to teach the students. However, tutors and students who participating in the tutorial classes having their own view of pros and cons on various elements of tutorial based teaching. In this paper we investigate the problems faced by the learners and tutors in tutorial classes and analyze their views to identifying and ensuring effective teaching inputs for tutorial classes using Question Answering System. This survey and interview methodology also used to ensure if students are encountering issues in fitting with tutorial class and to identify students' insight of an effective tutor.

 Abstract

Each temple, have a unique specialty and architecture...... The article is about the ancient Thyagaraja temple. Many composers of Music have composed on the deities of this Thyagarajaswamy temple. Muthuswamy Dikshitar who is one among the trinity of Carnatic Music has given the mentions of this temple in various aspects such as the deities, festivals, rituals, the posture of God and Goddess etc. There is a saying among people that one who takes birth in Thiruvarur will attain moksha. In additional to this there is a flower which is only found here, none elsewhere though many tried to hybrid this flower plant in many other states of India or many other countries.

 Abstract

The objective of the investigation is to evaluate the adequate production and implementation of sheep fat oil as biodiesel and examine the importance of biodiesel over the engine Performance, Emission and combustion component. The effort is carried out in a sole cylinder water cooled DI Diesel engine with Eddy current Dynamometer, Biodiesel composed from transesterfication procedure and thermo-physical properties of biodiesel and their blends from the procedures were analyzed. The experiment fuel were prepared in the ratio of STB 25, STB 50, STB 75 and STB 100 which produce the blend ratio of sheep fat oil biodiesel and the vacation diesel fuel. The experimental results reveal a insignificant decrease in brake thermal efficiency when correlate to that of sole fule. In this examination, the emission test were conducted with the help of AVL DI Gas analyzer, in which CO HC and Smoke density are negligible increased on the alternative hand and NOx are appreciably decrease when correlate to that of sole fuel. Cylinder pressure and Heat Release Rate. were also performed with benefit of AVL DI Gas Analyzer.

 Abstract

Languages in a multilingual and multicultural setting form a system network. Each language in this network has a function-determined value. A society or a government can assign a new value to any one of the languages in the system network in terms of its own policy of language planning, but it must realise that this assignment of a new value to a language will provide a chain reaction in the network. The values of the other languages in the network are bound to undergo changes as well. Moreover, effective bilingualism or multilingualism is a powerful way of enriching the linguistic repertoire of individuals. Generally, the learners of English in Manipur are mostly bilinguals or multilinguals. English language to them is a second language after their respective mother-tongues. In their ordinary walks of life, among their respective communities, they carry out day-to-day transactions through regional languages or mother tongues.But when the question of contact with the outsiders arise, they have to render this task in a common link language and that language is not any other region-specific languages but English,because its sphere is not limited to any particular community. Moreover, English is a widely spoken language today. It has often been referred to as the lingua franca of the modern world. It is said to be the world's most important language having communicative and educative-instrumental value. The use of English all over the world now is not out of sheer imposition, but because of the realisation of its advantages. In a multilingal interaction, no single language caters to all the needs of the particular languages and they are rather determined by pragmatic demands of the situation and the institutional factors of identification. The present paper attempts to highlight the social variability and the motivation affecting the teaching and learning of English language in a multilingual social context of Manipur, a small hilly terrain in India's North-East.

 Abstract

The solar collector is the key component in solar energy systems. It absorbs the solar radiation and converts it into a useful form of energy that can be applied to meet a demand. Out of various types of solar collectors, the flat-plate collectors are most economical and popular, since they are fixed permanently in position, involve simple construction and require little maintenance. Flat plate solar collectors used in modern domestic hot water systems have not changed significantly in the past few years. These types of absorbers typically have high heat losses through convective and radiative heat transfer. This paper has a review on number of design investigated which explores the recent advancements and efforts made in improving the performance of the flat plate collector.

 Abstract

The aim of this work is to study the effects of corrosion behavior on diffusion bonded AA5083, AA6082 and AA7075 aluminum alloy. The microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC) behaviour of aluminium alloys is estimated in natural aqueous environment. An optical microscopy is used to confirm the micro colony formation of rod and cocci bacterial species. Polarization study is also carried out to determine the shift in free corrosion potential of metallic structure due to biofilm formation. Corrosion rate is determined by finding the intersection point of Ecorr and Icorr in the polarization curve.AA7075 found to corrode higher than the corresponding welded region of joints. Similarly the corrosion current and corrosion rates are higher for the AA7075 compared to the AA6082 and AA5083. The corrosion rates observed were 2.47, 9.93 and 12.14 mm/year for AA6082, AA5083 and AA7075 respectively at diffusion bonded zones.
