Abstract: Due to the ever-increasing demand on water resources, the pressure on its judicious utilization is also increasing. Besides being precious, this resource is also complex to manage on account of its dynamic behaviour. It implies that the response to a unit of precipitation input is dependent on the state of wetness of the land mass and the environment prevalent at that time. Therefore, the changing weather conditions as well as the spatial variability of land mass result in nonlinear behaviour of the response of the watersheds.

Abstract: Not all women can be independent in living their lives, this could be because women experience dependency, fear of independence and have a deep desire to be cared for and protected by others. As explained earlier, socio-cultural influences cause women to be educated, nurtured and raised by conditioning them as weak creatures, thus creating dependence. Cinderella complex is a form of psychological phenomenon that is not widely known by the general public. Cinderella Complex talks about the independence that psychologists experience in women. One of the increasing roles of women in society can be seen from the variety of jobs currently occupied by women. The field of science is not beyond the reach of women, as evidenced by the large number of auditors, financial managers and financial staff for professions that are normally synonymous with the work of men occupied by women.

Abstract: Because of the complexity of the procedures, high level of clarification for the patients as well as their attendants while taking consent is a must as cardiac surgery is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Pictorial consent with pre-operative education is a far better option in this regard. We randomly took a total of 150 patients within the age group of 18 to 70 years, and they were explained with standard consent followed by pictorial consent and vice versa by the same informant. And they were given a preset questionnaire format after both consents. Later, based on their answers, comparison in relation to the level of clarity was done. Questionnaire was formatted after rigorous modification from the reviews of literature.

Abstract: The energy sector generates huge amounts of data that can be used by utility providers in energy conservation. As data is increasing drastically, the conventional energy meter is not sufficient to keep track of this data that incorporates demand and supply patterns of energy. The conventional energy meter manually retrieved information from a residential customer or an industrial customer and manually billed the consumption. This process was tedious, time consuming and costly for the utility providers. Subsequently, this led to the adoption of smart grid systems for energy management and efficient data processing. Another important facet of this research is the incorporation of residential sector, which is the highest consumer of energy and generates humongous amounts of data

Abstract: Huge amounts of scientific publications are produced daily in particular in many fields of medicine and biological science. Managing these data and deducing valuable information to identify significant clues to understand a physiological or pathological mechanism as well as to propose therapeutic solutions are urgently needed. Here we describe the use of a dedicated text mining-based software, PredictSearch (PS) to explore, through a literature survey, significant correlations between terms related to coronavirus infection. Our search highlighted some features of antiviral compounds such as chloroquine and glycyrrhizin and their impacts on apoptotic cell death, cell cycle and endocytic pathway in the course of coronavirus infection. In addition, the reported mechanisms through which the virus can avoid the interferon-induced antiviral state should pave the way to identify efficient therapies. This study demonstrates the importance of informatics tools such as PredictSearch dedicated to scientific literature survey to adapt previous knowledge to new health issues on a particular topical subject like Covid-19 pandemia.

Abstract: We present an analytic and asymptotic solution of an unsteady laminar boundary layer of micropolar fluid flow past a moving wedge. Similarity transformations reduce the number of independent variables of partial differential equations in the governing system to a coupled system of ordinary differential equations. An exact solution obtained for particular values of parameters are extended to obtain an analytical solution for more general values of the parameters involved. Analytical results are consistent with the numerical results obtained by employing implicit finite difference method. The variations with position, material parameter and time, shown by Velocity, shear stress and gyration profiles obtained from both the solutions are analyzed.
