Experimental Investigation on Effect of Fuel Injection Pressures in the Performance and Emission of a Single Cylinder DI Diesel Engine
This paper reports the results of the investigation carried out on a single cylinder DI diesel engine for the effects of fuel injection pressure (FIP) on the combustion, performance and emission characteristics. The experiments were conducted at constant speed (1500rpm) with four different FIPs Viz., 200, 400, 600 and 800 bar are used for the injection of fuel with a fixed start of fuel injection. With increased injection pressure the heat release rate increases and also the peak point is advanced in time. The results reveal that with increase in pressure at the full load condition the brake thermal efficiency increases by 11.8%, smoke density reduces from 86HSU to 70HSU. The HC emissions are reduced from 100 ppm to 50 ppm while the oxides of nitrogen emission increase from 960 ppm to 1160 ppm. The Carbon Monoxide emissions are reduced from 0.21 % by volume to 0.16 while the Carbon-di-Oxide reduced by 5.26 %. The brake thermal efficiency is increased by 12% with apparent reduction in smoke reduction by 18%. The cylinder pressure increases from 64 to 80 bar while Heat release rate increases from 112 to 148 kJ/m3 deg. This investigation establishes that switching to higher injection pressure improves fuel economy of diesel engines.

Quantum Chemical computational methods are essential tools for predicting the vibrational spectra of Progestrone Treatments in Post Menopausal Women
The problem of generating Trivariate Normal Distributions from univariate ones is drawing the attention of the reliability analyst. Amongst these approaches the characterisation approach and the modelling approach are very appealing. Infact the characterisation approach is of great interest to both theoreticians and applied workers. Here we have used a Trivariate Normal Distribution for application by extending univariate distribution through characterisation approach. In our application part we have considered post-menopausal women. We have concentrated on a 24 hr profile of Melatonin, ACTH, Cortisol, TSH ,Prolactin and GH under the treatment with Placebo and with Progesterone. In this respect we have developed a mathematical model which describes the purpose of the present study. The study investigates in post-menopausal women, the effects of a 24-hr profile of progesterone and placebo administration both on sleep architecture and on multiple hormones profile. The protocol allows us to explore the effects of the placebo and progesterone treatment on combined effects of hormones.

Designing the Vernacular Bazaar for Reinforcing the Urban Identity (Case Study: Shiraz City)
Urban spaces and the facades and physical elements of the city are the best things to lead us to a direct understanding of the city and whatever happens in it. Citizens interact with such spaces and find common points with other citizens. They experience the common events and a joint image is formed in their minds. The results of these common experiences and images can be called the identity of the city in the minds of its residents. The urban open spaces (i.e. the urban places for shopping, recreational activities, visiting, and gathering without any barrier at any time) are very effective on the formation of the collective identity between the citizens and on the solidarity of the urban identity. In case of Iran, a clear representation of such spaces can be found in the traditional bazaars. Iranian bazaars are the public attractiveness of the cities that call the people to come and spend their time. The Iranian old cities have been mainly commercial and merchandised cities and thus the bazaar used to be the backbone of the cities. The role of bazaar will be understood more clearly when we see that the main elements of the city, including the squares, mosques, schools, public houses, etc. were built beside the bazaars. The main subject of this research (i.e. traditional bazaar of Shiraz City) is located in Shiraz city, Fars Province of Iran. The main reason for choosing Shiraz is the fact that it is hold as the heart of Iran, i.e., between North, South, East, and West. Thus the potentials of the city can be conducted in a right commercial way.

Genetic Diversity Analysis in Jatropha (Jatropha curcas L.) genotypes
Steady decrease in crude petroleum oil reserve from earth and increasing demand of petroleum oil as source of generating energy for automobile and other sectors of industry, has led to adopt an alternative strategies for the production of bio-fuel from plants genetic resources to avert the risk of impaired supply of fuels, in future, from resource countries. Jatropha curcas is known as bio-fuel production crop. The oil present in its seeds used for extraction of bio-fuel. Genetic diversity analysis was performed during 2015-16 on 10 years old plants of 20 Jatropha curcas genotypes that were collected from different regions of India. The seeds were planted in randomized block design with three replications during 2005. Observations were recorded on 14 morphological characters. Field data were used for computation of ANOVA, estimation of genetic parameters and Mahalanobis D2 statistics. Significant differences were registered for all traits. Days to flowering, number of fruit clusters per plant and 100 seed weight showed additive genetic effect. Twenty genotypes were grouped into 3 clusters comprised of three, sixteen and one genotypes respectively and suggested that geographical diversity not related to the genetic diversity. Seed yield per plant, fruits per cluster, post floral period and secondary branches per plant contributed maximum towards genetic divergence. Three lines were found promising for the development of superior genotype.

Love and Chivalry in Persian Old Stories
Characterization and Type creation of male protagonists in Persian old stories is based upon traditions which are derived from ancient Iranian kingdom and religions. A survey based on six cases proves that there are three types ?of male characters in the ancient Iranian stories. The First type, is the mythical hero of the Sam dynasty in Sh?hn?meh which is an Indo-Iranian myth by origin. The second type is related to the characters who possess the Divine virtue or “Farr”,that belongs to ancient Iranian kings and the third type is the amorous wine loving “troubadour”.

Traumatic Bilateral Hip dislocation; one anteriorly and one posteriorly in Adult-A case report and brief review of literature.
Introduction Bilateral asymmetric traumatic hip dislocation is a rare orthopaedic condition. Only few cases are reported in the literature. Most of the bilateral hip dislocations are posterior dislocation. In few numbers it is a combination of both anterior and posterior dislocation. We report such a case of asymmetric traumatic bilateral hip dislocation in an adult of 30 years of age. Case Report A 30 year adult male was presented to our casualty following road traffic accident with complaints of severe pain in the hips with deformity and inability to move. The right hip was abducted and externally rotated and the left hip was adducted, flexed and internally rotated. Clinically the right hip was dislocated anteriorly while the left hip was dislocated posteriorly. The clinical findings were confirmed by X-ray of the pelvis with hips. Reduced under general anaesthesia within four hours, both the hip showed concentric reduction. Conclusion Bilateral asymmetric dislocation of the hip, though a rare condition may present because of increase in number of road traffic accidents. Early diagnosis and reduction of the dislocated joint is the key to regain a normal hip joint and to prevent avascular necrosis of the femoral head. Key Words: Hip dislocation; asymmetric; bilateral; adult; avascular necrosis

Design of Low Power Digital Systems Using Reversible Logic
This paper presents the design style and analysis of ultra-low power digital system using reversible logic. Adiabatic technique is the one which uses reversible logic for low power system, this technique is implemented for the digital systems 4-bit, 8-bit adder-subtractors and also 3-bit, 5-bit BEC (binary to excess-1 converter) based on ECRL (Efficient Charge Recovery Logic) and PFAL (Positive Feedback Adiabatic Logic) logic families which works with the professional four phase power clock. These styles have the profit of energy saving as it reuse the certain amount of the energy by recycling from the load capacitance thus reduces the energy dissipation. MOS level-11 Tanner-spice simulation has been used for the design of Energy saving adiabatic circuits with consideration to particular frequencies with the different load capacitance, and different supply voltages. In analysis, two logic families, ECRL (Efficient Charge Recovery Logic) and PFAL (Positive Feedback Adiabatic Logic) are compare with conventional CMOS logic for Incrementors and adders. Also comparison of ECRL (Efficient Charge Recovery Logic) and PFAL (Positive Feedback Adiabatic Logic) is done. In the analysis it has found that adiabatic is superior for low power applications in Cryptographic hardware for example smart cards, Digital Signal processing system and embedded systems at particular frequency choice.
