In Vitro Toxicity of Bavistin (Carbendazim 50% Wp) On Sclerotium Rolfsii Sacc.

When the hosts are susceptible and the environment is feasible the viable fungal pathogens cause many plant diseases. The diseased plant fails to produce a healthy yield and also declines its viability. To inhibit the effect of fungal pathogens either natural or synthetic fungicides are applied. The present investigation deals with In vitro antifungal activity of the synthetic fungicide Bavistin (50% WP) on Sclerotium rolfsii Sacc. using poisoned food technique. Mainly 0.2mg, 0.4mg, 0.6mg, and 0.8mg of fungicide were incorporated into four different 100ml PDA media and obtained specific concentrations such as 10ppm, 20ppm, 30ppm, and 40ppm respectively, and then poured into four different Petri plates. It was found very toxic at 40ppm and the growth was completely inhibited whereas the lower concentrations such as 30ppm, 20ppm, and 10ppm showed various degrees of inhibition on soil-borne fungus Sclerotium rolfsii Sacc.

Analysis of concrete with using human hair as fiber-reinforced

Human hair is a waste material that is found in the bountiful sum in the day by day life. It is a typical constituent in city squander streams and causes ecological issues as it is a non-degradable waste. Fiber strengthened cement gives great flexure strength less brake improvement. Since concrete is frail in strain thus a few estimates should be embraced to defeat this insufficiency. Human hair is by and large solid in strain; henceforth it very well may be utilized as a fiber fortification material. Human hair Fiber is a choice non-degradable issue available in riches and at unassuming cost. Hair additionally diminishes ecological issues. Likewise, expansion of human hair strands upgrades the coupling properties, miniature breaking control, Imparts ductility, strength and furthermore builds expanding opposition. The exploratory discoveries in our investigations would support future examination toward the path for long haul execution to expanding this expense of powerful kind of strands for use in primary applications. The examination was led on solid 3D shapes, chambers, and light emissions size with expansion of different rates of human hair fiber i.e., 0%,0.5% 1%,1.25%,1.5%, and 2% by weight of concrete, fine and coarse aggregate, and results were contrasted and those of plain concrete cement of mid-range grade. For every level of human hair included solid, we make a different cubes sample that was tried for their individual mechanical properties at relieving times of 7days, 14days, and 28days. The ideal amount of human hair was gotten as 2% by the weight of concrete. That investigation encourages the fresher to comprehend the human hair fiber fortified execution in concrete cement.

A lightweight encryption authentication scheme using rectangle and chaotic logistic map algorithm for smart grid

Smart Grid is the advanced power grid system that combines renewable energy resources like wind, solar, biogas with the existing power system. Besides that, it provides two-way communication using a large number of electronic devices between the customer and providers which is also known as Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI). The devices are resource constraint devices and sensitive information is communicating through them. Therefore, in this paper, these constraints are taken under consideration and designed a lightweight encryption authentication scheme for AMI. The lightweight RECTANGLE and chaotic Logistic map algorithms are taken under consideration. These algorithms encrypt the information along with generating authentication tags. These tags are used on the receiver side to verify the authenticity of the data. The algorithm is simulated in MATLAB and various performance parameters calculated for it. After that, it is compared with the existing algorithms.

Hybrid the artificial intelligence and swarm-based optimization algorithm for load forecasting in the smart grid

Electricity load forecasting algorithms are used in the smart grid to predict the electricity demand in the future. Besides that, it helps in reducing the electricity generation cost. In the literature, three types of load forecasting are done such as short-term, medium-term, and long-term. In this paper, the short term forecasting is done. The short-term forecasting algorithm predicts the electricity demand from a few hours to several weeks ahead. Due to the nonlinear, nonstationary, and non-seasonal nature of the electric load time series, accurate forecasting is challenging. In this paper, Artificial Intelligence (AI) and the swarm optimization algorithm is hybrid in order to improve the prediction of load forecasting. We have considered Artificial Neural Network (ANN) and Binary Particle Swarm Optimization (BPSO) algorithms in our work. The BPSO algorithm used to improve the learning rate in the ANN network. The experimental results were simulated in MATLAB and various performance metrics such as RMSE, MAPE, minimum and maximum error determined. The results show that the proposed algorithms provide better results as compared to the existing algorithms.

Strength analysis of styrene-butadiene latex modified cement concrete

Polymer Modified Concrete (P.M.C.) has been discovered to be more potent than conventional cement because of its excellent strength and raised perseverance, so to enhance the performance, certain polymers are blended in with concrete. The impact of Styrene Butadiene Rubber (S.B.R.) over the compressive strengths, tensile strengths, and carbonation of cement has been examined in this investigation, and the ideal polymer content for concrete has additionally been resolved. This examination was attempted to decide the impacts of polymer expansion on compressive and tensile strengths utilizing concrete at nearby ambient temperature with a consistent water-cement proportion blend design. The mixes were prepared with a 0 %, 5 %, 10 %, 15 % and 20 % cement-latex ratio of Styrene-Butadiene Rubber. The fresh concrete slump test was performed while the compressive and tensile strengths were analyzed at various ages. S.B.R. latex has been appeared to have an unfavorable effect at an early age, even though applying S.B.R. latex to concrete at 28 days brings about improved compressive and tensile strength. However, the dosage of S.B.R. latex for mixtures rich in cement needs to be optimized in order to preserve the desired concrete workability.

Design and fabrication of semi-automatic dishwasher machine

Though a lot of human activities are automated in the present competitive world. There is a lag in the automated dishwasher. Some machines are already designed with the help of high-velocity water only; hence there is a chance of uncleanliness and not removing tough strains in dishes. In order to overcome the above problems a special machine called – Semiautomatic Dishwasher Machine” with shower and water jet introduced in this work. The project is to design and fabricate a semiautomatic dishwasher that is efficient and overcome human work. In the market existing dishwasher, the spray arm is not sufficient to spray water in each part of the dish. So, keeping this in mind, we designed the circular rack and spray arm in the center of the machine which will spray the water equally and effectively in each and every area of the dish. The machine has less cycle time, less energy consumption, less water required for cleaning as compared to a manual machine.
