Topology is a branch of geometry concerned with the properties remains unchanged when the figure is deformed. The significance of topology is which will help to develop light weight components which are used in manufacturing of two wheeler carts, etc., the result is we get better automobile fuel efficiency. This in turn results to energy conservation and global environmental preservation. In industries several attempts are made to produce lightweight designs. In order to manufacture light weight component our first step is to decrease the weight of the wheel rim. The wheel is designed using CATIA and Imported CATIA 3D Model into Altair Hyper Mesh V13 for doing Pre-processing and ALTAIR Optistruct Software for doing optimization and structural analysis of the wheel rim. The aim of this work is to develop an optimization procedure in order to reduce the weight of rim component. The focus of this project has been the weight reduction of an aluminium wheel by means of a topology analysis.

Translating for children has always been crucial perturbation for professional and non-professional translators as Sprachmittlers. This is owing to conjectural vulnerability of this cohort of people in conditions of their world of childhood. When we embark on translating for children, we should bear in mind that a text is not a stable/durable object: it brings along a different response at every reading. Therefore, we are dealing with various readings and also a wide range of interpretations. In this respect, we bring out Skopos Paradigm as for the fulfillment of our intention in translating for children since this paradigm parks more fully-grown the pree of purpose and situation of the clientele (e.g. children). Whatever a story or written form is, when translating for this intended group of people, what matters is the maintenance of function-aim-among possible yet pertained interpretations.

In this work, we make use of the well known product rule and Leibnitz’s theorem to generate a new method which can be used to obtain the higher order derivatives of any functions which depends on four variables. The new method does not require the knowledge of the preceding derivative before obtaining the succeeding ones.

The palm sap of Palmyrah tree (Borassus flabellifer) can be used as a source to produce bioethanol. The Palmyrah trees are distributed naturally in tropical and subtropical regions. These trees can be grown on very arid areas. The most important product of the Palmyrah tree is the palm sap. This sap is collected by the processes of tapping. The palm sap is a cheap renewable agricultural resource, which can be used for ethanol production. The potential of using the Palmyrah tree grown in India for producing bioethanol was evaluated. Tube method of extraction was introduced to extract palm sap and the yield was compared with the traditional method of extraction. The tube method of extraction gives 30% greater yield. Production of Bioethanol at the laboratory scale from palm sap was studied. The fresh palm sap fermented by air born microorganism yielded 3.5% (v/v) ethanol. The yield of ethanol has enhanced when the palm sap was fermented with the yeast strain MTCC171 with the maximum yield of 7% (v/v). Further the dilution of palm sap yielded a maximum of 12% (v/v) ethanol. The ethanol extracted from palm sap can be used as biofuel.

Employee welfare “ the efforts to make life worth living for workmen ”. Employee welfare means anything done for the comfort and improvement , Intellectual or social , of the employees over and above the wages paid which is not a necessity of the industry.”Organizations provide welfare facilities to their employees to keep their motivation levels high. In the light of above, the researcher has selected the M&M Limited (Tactor Division), to know the satisfaction levels of employees about labour welfare measures provided by the organization on the basis of responses of sample respondents.M&M Limited (Tactor Division) is always ahead in improving the working and living conditions of its employees and it has done a lot in respect of providing welfare measures for its employees in the areas of Education, Medical, Housing, Transport, Sports , Recreational facilities etc.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of using the Information Technology (IT) on financial performance of the Petrochemical companies listed on Tehran Stock Exchange.

The main objective of the present paper is to establish a summation formula based on half argument in connection with Hypergeometric function.

Relevant background material about speech recognition is presented, along with a critical review of previous hardware implementations. Accurate real-time speech recognition is not currently possible in the mobile embedded space where the need for natural voice interfaces is clearly important. The continuous nature of speech recognition coupled with an inherently large working set creates significant cache interference with other processes. Hence, real-time recognition is problematic even on high-performance general-purpose platforms. This paper provides a detailed analysis of CMU's latest speech recognizer (Sphinx 3.2.). Several optimizations are then described which expose parallelism and drastically reduce the bandwidth and power requirements for real-time recognition. A special-purpose accelerator for the dominant Gaussian probability phase is developed for a 0:25_ CMOS process which is then analyzed and compared with Sphinx's measured energy and performance on a 0:13_ 2.4 GHz Pentium 4 system. The results show an improvement in power consumption by a factor of 29 at equivalent processing throughput. However after normalizing the process, the special-purpose approach has twice the throughput, and consumes 104 times less energy than the general-purpose processor. The energy-delay product is a better comparison metric due to the inherent design trade-offs between energy consumption and performance. The energy-delay product of the special-purpose approach is 196 times better than the Pentium 4. These results provide strong evidence that real-time large vocabulary speech recognition can be done within a power budget commensurate with embedded processing using today's technology.

This study appraised the current approach, methodology and reporting standards of real estate valuation in Nigeria. Primary data were sourced through structured questionnaires administered to practitioners in Lagos metropolis, while secondary data were mainly from valuation reports prepared by valuers (appraisers) operating within the study area and documents from the regulatory bodies. Using the yardstick of transparency, rationality and consistency - the universal hallmarks of reliable asset pricing; and the International Valuation Standards Committee’s as well as the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors’ recommended “minimum content of valuation report”, the study revealed that the real estate valuation practice in the country presently falls short of international standards and best practices. While acknowledging remedial steps that were recently put in place, the study recommended other measures that will revolutionize the local practice. These include formation of bigger firms, a more proactive regulatory framework and a comprehensive review of training curricular. Substantial amendments to the present national valuation standards and guidance notes to reflect and accommodate the peculiarity and the particular needs of the local market place with adequate measures for enforcement/sanctions should also be considered. Above all, practitioners must be willing to embrace necessary changes in practice.

This paper presents an inventory model for deteriorating item having price dependent demand and partial backlogging. The study of inventory system with deteriorating item has a special significance as it influences the profit and revenue of a retailer. It has been observed that some time item does not start to deteriorates as it comes to the storage so we have consider non instantaneous deteriorating item and its rate of deterioration varies linearly with time. The proposed model has been developed to determine optimal order quantity and optimal selling price for which profit can be maximized. The model is solved analytically by maximizing the total average profit. Sensitiveness of the parameter has been tested by sensitivity analysis and numerical example has been illustrated to explore the solution of the model.
