Abstract:

The inshore region of the Bay of Bengal is one of the less-studied regions of the world ocean in terms of sustainability of Blue Economy while being one of the most exploited bodies of water to benefit a considerable chunk of the Indian population. For the first time, thirty-six years of in situ data at two locations in the northwestern Bay preferably in the lower Gangetic delta region has been analyzed to identify long-term trends in salinity. The salinity values obtained for Jharkhali and Haldia, situated in the lower Gangetic delta region exhibit extreme contrasting profiles. Jharkhali shows an increasing trend, whereas Haldia shows a pronounced decreasing trend of salinity with the passage of time. The results point towards the vulnerability of Jharkhali station towards corrosion of engineering structures, which might exert a negative impact on the sustainability of Blue Economy in this region.

Abstract:

The traditional method of shrimp culture is a common practice in Indian Sundarbans which is done without any sound scientific back-up, proper feed, and water quality management. The shrimp farmers use a traditional feed of animal origin that often results in deterioration of water quality and disease outbreaks in cultured species. The present paper highlights the effect of the total replacement of animal ingredients in shrimp feed with floral ingredients on water quality and shrimp health. Weight gain, condition index, feed conversion ratio (FCR), survival, body pigmentation (astaxanthin level) were analyzed in shrimps along with pond water quality. Higher condition index (C.I.) values, survival rate, and gain in shrimp weight were observed in the experimental pond (E) compared to the control pond (C). Low FCR values were observed in the experimental pond than in the control pond. Astaxanthin values in shrimps of the experimental pond were also higher than the control pond which points towards Suaeda maritima as the source of carotenoid in the shrimp tissue.

Abstract:

West Bengal is a maritime state in the northeastern part of the Indian subcontinent with a coastal area of 10,158.22 sq. km. The coastal region consists of the Digha coast, which is noted for its tourism and fish landing activities. We highlight in this paper, a load of nitrate and phosphate during premonsoon in the aquatic phase of Digha for more than three decades (1984 – 2020) to observe the trend of these two variables, which are important components of sewage. A uniform increase in the concentrations of the nutrients is observed except in the years 2009 and 2020. A sudden peak observed for both the nutrients during 2009 may be attributed to Aila, a super cyclone that hit coastal West Bengal on 25th May 2009. The dip in the levels of nutrients during 2020, may be the effect of the COVID lockdown phase in the state during which all the tourism and fish landing activities were completely paralyzed.

Abstract:

This study was conducted to evaluate the microbial load in the flesh and gills of the mud crab (Scylla serrata) collected from the Nagendra Bazar area in Diamond Harbour in South 24 Parganas district of West Bengal, India. The period of collection coincided with the Pre-COVID-19 phase (June 2018 and June 2019) and the COVID lockdown phase (June 2020 and June 2021). It is observed that the total coliform loads in both muscle and gills are more in the pre-COVID phase compared to the COVID lockdown phase. ANOVA analysis also confirmed significant variations between years and body parts (muscle and gills) for both Total coliform (TC) and Fecal Coliform (FC) (p < 0.01). The present study is of considerable importance as crabs are consumed by local people as well as exported in several foreign countries like China, Singapore, Japan, and the U.S.A.

AN INTRODUCTION TO RECTANGULAR BHATTACHARYYA’S CO-ORDINATES: A NEW CONCEPT

Authors:

Prabir Chandra Bhattacharyya

DOI NO:

https://doi.org/10.26782/jmcms.2021.11.00008

Abstract:

Co-ordinate geometry is a particular branch of mathematics where geometry is studied with the help of algebra. According to the concept of Bhattacharyya’s Co-ordinate System, plane co-ordinate geometry consists of Four Positive dimensions or axes. In four-dimensional co-ordinate geometry, the position of a point can be determined uniquely by two real positive numbers on a plane. Here, we shall discuss only the plane co-ordinate geometry consisting of four dimensions or axes. The author introduced four positive dimensions or axes to solve the problems with the help of ‘Rectangular Bhattacharyya’s Co-ordinate System’ instead of the Rectangular Cartesian Co-ordinate System. This is the new concept which has been developed by the author. The author determined not only the distance between two points but also the direction of the line segment between two points on the plane.

Abstract:

The ability to check the location of both static and dynamic devices is improving increasingly with each passing day. To track locations of both static and dynamic machines, Global Positioning System (GPS) is used to exchange the location between the sender and the receiver. However, there are still challenges in the sage and secure transmission and reception of GPS location. The most common challenge is spoofing attacks data. This paper proposes the implementation of a Pretty Good Privacy (PGP) encryption algorithm to ensure the safety of GPS packets shared across the communication channels. The GPS location is first encrypted and subsequently sent across a communication channel, which is strong encryption and cannot be decrypted by an unauthorized user.

Abstract:

The branch of computer science that deals with the simulation of variables with the help of a computer are termed Artificial Intelligence (AI). Here we attempt to predict the pace of acidification in the Digha coast of the Bay of Bengal based on available datasets of more than three decades. The ground zero observation on the data set reveals a decreasing trend of pH since 1984 with a sudden hike in premonsoon 2020, the period coinciding with the COVID 19 lockdown phase in the Indian sub-continent.

Abstract:

In this review, we have discussed the important recent theoretical research works on tropical cyclone dynamics. For mitigation of the devastating effect of tropical cyclones on coastal human civilization more and more advanced forecasting techniques are evolving nowadays with the increase in the frequency of generation of tropical cyclones. Thus it is of utmost necessity to understand the anatomy and physiology of the dynamics of tropical cyclones. So researchers explain the cyclonic system from a different point of view and that is highlighted in this review. So this review illustrates, in brief, some important developed models.

Abstract:

              In this study, the effect of COVID-19 lockdown (2020) on dissolved heavy metal load (Zn, Cu, and Pb) in the coastal West Bengal were analyzed concerning the pre-COVID 19 phases (2016-2019). Two stations namely Shankarpur (Stn.1) and Haldia (Stn. 2) were selected for the study as both have two contrasting operational features. Haldia is an important port-cum-industrial complex whereas Shankarpur is an important fish landing station-cum-tourism site. The results showed that in both the stations there was a drastic fall in the metal concentrations due to lockdown implementation, but in Haldia, the aquatic health exhibits much improvement as in lockdown there was complete shut-down of the industries. ANOVA results also highlight significant variations between the two stations as well as between the pre COVID-19 (2016-2019) and COVID-19 lockdown phases.

https://doi.org/10.26782/jmcms.2021.12.00005

Abstract:

Microbial load in terms of Total Coliform (TC) and Fecal Coliform (FC) were documented in the water of a shrimp culture farm at Malancha region of North 24 Parganas for a period of 36 years (1984-2019). The region receives the wastewater from the city of Kolkata. A steady hike in the microbial load (comprising of both total and fecal coliform) is noticed. The primary reason behind this rise of the microbial load is the run-off from the nearby landmasses that brings various types of wastes in the shrimp farm under investigation.  The sustainability of shrimp farms in this region is under question due to the huge microbial load as revealed from the output of NAR.

Abstract:

Binary polynomials representation of Aunu permutation patterns has been used to perform arithmetic operations on words and sub-words of the polynomials using addition, multiplication, and division modulo two. The polynomials were also found to form some mathematical structures such as group, ring, and field. This paper presents the extension of our earlier work as it reports the Aunu binary polynomials of cardinality eleven and how to find their greatest common divisor (gcd) using the extended Euclidean algorithm. The polynomials are pairly permuted and the results found showed that one polynomial is a factor of the other polynomial or one polynomial is relatively prime to the other and some gave different results. This important feature is of combinatorial significance and can be investigated further to formulate some theoretic axioms for this class of Aunu permutation pattern. Binary polynomials have important applications in coding theory, circuit design, and the construction of cryptographic primitives.

PERFORMANCE EVALUATION OF ETHYLENE-VINYL ACETATE MODIFIED BITUMEN AND MIXTURES

Authors:

Hamza Marjan, Arshad Hussain, Saad Khan Awan

DOI NO:

https://doi.org/10.26782/jmcms.2022.01.00002

Abstract:

Interconnectivity necessitates the use of transportation facilities and infrastructure. All highway design agencies seek acceptable, long-lasting, and cost-effective strategies while designing these facilities. The traffic demands on roads are much higher than they have been in the past. Increased traffic loads, larger traffic volumes, and insufficient maintenance have all contributed to serious road surface distress (e.g., rutting and cracking) due to rapid development. As conventional asphalt combinations are unable to withstand high axle loads and tire pressures, interest in polymer-modified asphalt has grown. Polymer modification of asphalt is one of the most effective ways to improve asphalt qualities. The practical temperature range of binders is greatly expanded by polymers. The inclusion of the polymer can considerably improve the binder qualities by increasing the stiffness of the bitumen and enhancing its temperature susceptibility, enabling the building of safer roads and lower maintenance costs. This research presents a laboratory investigation of the Ethylene Vinyl Acetate (EVA) polymer-modified bitumen. NHA-B gradation, PARCO 60/70 grade bitumen, and EVA polymer of TPI Polene Public Company Limited were used. Penetration, softening point, ductility, and viscosity tests were used to evaluate the conventional properties of the asphalt binders. Three different percentages of polymers were used i.e., 2%, 4%, and 6%. The impact of the EVA polymer on permanent deformation and moisture susceptibility was investigated. A double wheel tracker (DWT) was used to quantify permanent deformation (rutting), and a Universal Testing Machine (UTM) was used to examine moisture susceptibility using an Indirect Tensile Strength (ITS) test. For different percentages of bitumen volumetric properties according to Marshall Mix Design procedure were measured, and then Optimum Bitumen Content (OBC) was evaluated.  Performance tests were performed using above mentioned percentages of EVA. The rutting potential of mixes was improved by the addition of EVA as compared to control asphalt mixes. The same effect of the polymer was on the moisture susceptibility of the prepared samples. This showed that EVA polymer can be used in flexible pavements to reduce permanent deformation and high-temperature problems.

AN INTRODUCTION TO THEORY OF DYNAMICS OF NUMBERS: A NEW CONCEPT

Authors:

DOI NO:

Abstract:

The role of numbers is very important not only in mathematics but also in any branch of science and technology. The author developed a new concept of the theory of dynamics of numbers. According to the new concept, 0 (zero) is the starting point of any number. There are infinite number of directions through which the numbers can move from starting point 0 (zero) and can return in the vertically opposite direction towards the starting point 0 (zero). The motion of any number (object) is positive whether it is forward motion or backward motion. Similarly, countup and countdown motions of numbers are also positive. Therefore, there is no existence of negative numbers.             The author framed the law of the theory of dynamics of numbers. The author solved the quadratic equation in one countable unknown object or quantity (say x) in the form, ax2 + bx + c = 0, even if the numerical value of the discriminant, b2 – 4ac <0. The author applied the theory of dynamics of numbers to solve the problems of plane co-ordinate geometry and also to solve the problems of the quadratic equation in the present paper.

Abstract:

The numerous applications in medical fields as well as in industrial areas have drawn substantial attention of the researchers to study the fluid flow and heat transfer (HT) through a bent duct. The present paper demonstrates a spectral-based numerical study of 2D flow in a bent square geometry for various curvature ratios. The numerical calculation has been conducted over Dn, and the curvature ranges from 0.001 to 0.5. The horizontal walls are thermally different where the bottom wall is heated while the ceiling wall cooled, the vertical walls being thermally insulated. After an extensive investigation, we found two branching structures of the solution, each consisting of two branches with 2- to 8-vortex solutions for small and medium curvatures while three branches of solution structure for large curvature. The instability of the flow is then calculated by performing time-evolution (TEv) analysis and by sketching the phase-space (PS) of the solutions. This study also demonstrates that the HT is significantly boosted with the effect of secondary flows (SF) and the increasing secondary vortices boost heat transfer more effectively than other physically realizable solutions.

Abstract:

A gas turbine is a device that converts the energy of fuel into mechanical energy and is used to derive several types of rotating equipment. One of the major drawbacks of a gas turbine is that the performance (power output and thermal efficiency) of a gas turbine decreases instantly with the rise of ambient temperature. At Daur SSGCL Gas Compression Station, gas turbines are used to derive centrifugal type gas compressors to raise the pressure of natural gas where ambient temperature varies between 70 to 500C which decreases the performance of gas turbines. Inlet air cooling is a method through which the effect of ambient temperature on the performance of gas turbines can be decreased. This technique of cooling intake air increases the performance of gas turbines by increasing air density. There are various types of inlet air cooling but, in this study, two types of inlet air cooling techniques are discussed, one of which is wetted media evaporative type and the other one is vapour absorption type. The Evaporative type inlet air cooling technique is suitable for sites with high ambient temperature and low relative humidity and vapour absorption type is used for a wide range of ambient air temperature. In this study, thermodynamic models of the gas turbine have been developed without inlet air cooling (base case/cycle) with inlet air cooling for analyzing the effects of ambient conditions (temperature and relative humidity) on the performance of the gas turbine. The simulated results obtained from Engineering Equation Solver with inlet air cooling systems (vapour absorption and wetted media evaporator cooler) are compared without inlet air cooling (base cycle) gas turbine. On comparison of results of a gas turbine with inlet air cooling systems to without inlet air cooling at ambient conditions, T_0=298.15K (250C) and =60% it is found that gas turbine with evaporator cooler produces 289kW more power than base case/cycle and 390kW more output power with vapour absorption inlet air cooling.
