ABSTRACT: Co2+ ions doped nano Nickel - Chromium ferrite (x= 0.0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8 and 1.0) synthesized by Co-Precipitation method with pH as 10. Prepared samples are sintered at 1173K. Influence of Cobalt ion on Structural and magnetic properties of CoxNi1-xFe1.5Cr0.5O4 nano ferrite were reported here. The structural parameters were estimated by X- ray Diffraction (XRD). Morphology and composition of the synthesized samples has been evaluated Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) and Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy (EDX) respectively. The spinel formation have been investigated by Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) and two prominent absorption bans 1 and 2 corresponding to the stretching vibration of tetrahedral and octahedral sites around 600 cm-1 and 400 cm-

ABSTRACT: One of the dominant noise sources from rotating machinery equipment is from trailing edge section of an airfoil as found in wind turbine blades. A computational study of noise mechanism due to trailing edge of blade for a three bladed 2 megawatt wind turbine was performed using the semi empirical noise model. The model predicts the sound power levels from trailing edge bluntness source using boundary layer displacement thickness on pressure and suction side of airfoil. At low Mach number flows (0.1884) and moderate to high Reynolds number (4.73 x 105 – 3.35 x 106) in span wise............

ABSTRACT: Titanium Oxide (TiO2) nanocrystalline powders in the anatase phase with tetragonal structure with the point group 4/mmm and space group I41/amd–D4h19 have been synthesized using titanium tetra-isopropoxide as the starting precursor. TG/DTA analysis of the precursor material was carried out in order to fix the calcination temperature for the titanium tetra isopropoxide precursor solution. As-prepared samples were annealed at different temperatures of 400 and 600 °C and their physicochemical properties were examined by means of TG/DTA, XRD, RS, PL, SEM/EDS and DC electrical conductivity studies. X -ray diffraction shows that the as-synthesized samples dried at 100ºC in air were amorphous, whereas annealed samples were crystalline and tetragonal structure, belongs to the............

ABSTRACT: This study investigates the relationship between cosmic rays and cloud cover; in order to ascertain the interdependence of each on other. Global cloud cover data for high, middle and low clouds from 1983 – 2009 were obtained from the International Satellite Cloud Climatology Project (ISCCP)-D2 dataset. Pressure corrected hourly cosmic rays data from 1983 – 2009 was obtained from Thule Neutron Monitor Station (76.50 N, 68.5o W, 26.0 m with geomagnetic cut-off rigidity of 1.0 GV). Descriptive analysis was employed in analyzing the data. These analyses were employed using MATLAB. Results reveal that, low cloud covers have good correlation with cosmic rays from 1983 – 1995; however, this relationship weakened............

ABSTRACT: In this research the study of fiber laser depends on an analytical theory which is including a three-level laser system. Any increased in core radius and pump power means increased in output power for optimum core radius3.8m we get 25mW output power. Optimum length depends on pumping power. Any increase in fiber length causes increasing in output power.

ABSTRACT: The Ni-P-X EL nano-composite coatings are obtained by the immersion of the substrate material (Mild Steel, MS AISI1040) into electroless bath solution having second phase alumina and zirconia particles respectively. Microstructure and constituent composition of as-plated and heat treated specimens were analyzed by SEM and EDAX techniques and for electrochemical testing, as-plated and heat treated cylindrical samples were employed. The SEM results indicated the supplement of Al2O3 and ZrO2 nano-particles separately into an EL Ni-P matrix and were confirmed through EDAX analysis. When the coated specimens were heated at 380°C for 1 hour in argon atmosphere, nano-particles turned out to be closely packed which suggest an improvement in hardness resistance of EL nano-composite coatings.

ABSTRACT: The present work consists of a theoretical study of control rod worth of TRIGA-Mark-II research reactor using the evaluated nuclear data library JEFF-3.1.2. The data files of the evaluated nuclear data library cannot be used directly as input to neutronic or other applied calculations. These data files are to be converted to preprocessed files and then to post processed into multi-group files, which are then directed into specially formatted working libraries. These libraries are compatible with the neutronic codes. This subject involves computer software using knowledge of ENDF-6 formats...............

ABSTRACT: heart disease is one of the cause's numbers of death in world. If the heart could not pump blood and distribute it's to all parts of the body, pain in the chest will be happened while heavy work or walk a rush. Myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) techniques is an ideal approach to doing the assessments of myocardial perfusion. As non-invasive imaging modalities, it can examine the functions of the various segments of the heart muscle to reflect whether there is a malfunction on heart............
