During the present research work, maximum population 67.92 % was recorded from tomato-control fields and least population 32.08% was recorded from tomato-treated fields.Collected soil samples were analyzed for salinity effects. The analysis showed that among cauliflower control fieldsoccurrence level of soil macro-fauna spawn their life in accordance with natural manner; because along the season their occurring level was recorded in normal frequencies. At the beginning, their population was recorded least, it acceleratesup to fourth sampling wise and then trends toward reduction. While in cauliflower treated fields, salinity level was not recorded in disciplinary manner. It holds up or down as per overall nature of irrigation water. Consequently, frequency of soil macro-fauna was also disturb and tends toward reduction. Diversity was recorded maximum among cauliflower control fields (0.1530) and least was recorded among cauliflower treated fields (0.0723). Evenness ratio was also recorded in same context (0.0549and 0.0294, respectively). Dominance was recorded maximum from cauliflower control fields (1.0549) and least from cauliflower treated fields (1.0294). However, richness was a little bit recorded high among cauliflower treated fields (11.6633) and least among cauliflower control fields (10.0333). Results of ANOVA were non-significant between both fields (F =1.31; P = 0.2648). Kruskal-Wallis test was again should non-significant result (F = 0.43; P =0.5167). Wilcoxon Rank Sum test was showed that macro fauna were not differ significantly between both fields but habitat preference was level of significance (P-value = 0.5205).

In view of the evidence, in the field, of the use of Dasyphyllum diacanthoides by the peasants of Huechelepún sector (Chile), as winter food for their cattle, and the nonexistence of reports on the use of this forrage, this study determined the nutritional value of D. diacanthoides. The samples taken from different edible parts of D. diacanthoides individuals were dried according to the protocol and were subjected to a proximate analysis (Weende\

In these days, there are a problem to control our home remotely in case of outside such as turn on or off lights, electrical devices as TV, air condition, open or close the doors and etc., the paper offers a solution to develop smart home automation system (SHAS) using Internet of things (IoT). Smart Home systems, or smart home technologies, are systems and devices that can control elements of your home environment - lighting, appliances, telephones, as well as home security, mechanical, entry and safety systems. They can be used to improve safety, expand usability and make life easier for people of all abilities. SHAS can be operated by electricity or a computer chip using a range of different types of switches. Smart Home is the residential extension of building automation. Smart Home is a central system that can control and create communication between nearly all aspects of your house. This Includes: Lighting, Heating and Air Conditioning, Fire control systems, and Security System include (doors). the paper describes a design of SHAS that capable of monitoring sensors and remotely controlling actuators to flexibly construct security and safety services.

The present study dealt with antioxidant activity, minerals profile and antimicrobial activity of Azadirachta indica (neem), Allium sativum (garlic) and Cinnamomum zeylanicum (cinnamon) extracts. Total phenolic compound was higher in A. indica (279.64 ±17.34 mg GAE/100g) moderate in A. sativum (40.80 ± 2.91 mg GAE/100g) and lower in C. zeylanicum (11.66 ± 1.76 mg GAE/100g) similar in case of flavonoids content. Antioxidant activity and free radical scavenging was assessed in vitro using FRAP, DPPH, ABTS free radicals and Copper chelating activity, Iron chelating activity, Superoxide scavenging and Hydroxyl scavenging. The results revealed all plants extracts have strong antioxidant and free radical scavenging activity due to presence of phenolic and flavonoids content. In order to verify the antimicrobial activity of all the plant extracts, two bacterial strains, Pseudomonas sp. and Aeromonas hyrophila were isolated from unhealthy tilapia. Among all, ethanolic extract of A. indica showed maximum inhibition against both strains after 48 hours. A. sativum was found to moderate and C. zeylanicum least in action. It was concluded that garlic, cinnamon and neem have strong antioxidant and antimicrobial activity and could be used in pharmaceutical formulation against various human health disorders.

For this study, X-Ray radiographic tests and tensile strength tests of AISI 304- Hardox 400 steels welded by Plasma Transferred Arc (PTA) welding have been performed. AISI304 - Hardox 400 steel couples with a thickness of 4 mm were joined and welded by using PTA welding method in constant feed rate and different energy inputs. While the welding strength of these welded specimens was examined by using tensile strength tests, the radiography test of these specimens was examined by using X-ray diffraction method. The the fracture surface of welding zone is examined by optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and energy dispersive spectroscopy analysis. The fatigue strength of Plasma Transferred Arc (PTA) welding samples increase due to higher deep penetration in welding zone with increasing welding power in chosen conditions. The best properties are observed with the specimens welded at Hardox 400 - AISI 304 steel double 40 A heat input. As a result of tests conducted, it is determined that AISI304- Hardox 400 steel couples showed a sufficiently high weldability by PTA welding method.

Because vehicles run in high speed environments, it is difficult to establish the topology of the network. Moreover, data transmission may be interrupted by the handoff of various APs. This study established the network of roadside-to-vehicle (R2V) environment, and used the DSRC (dedicated short range communication) to achieve seamless handoff control on a streaming service. To achieve this goal, we first used the GPS (global positioning system) to collect vehicular information (e.g., speed, direction, and location), and subsequently exchanged the parameter of vehicular information at both ends by DSRC. Therefore, the computer in the vehicle can predict the link expiration time (LET) between two mobile nodes. Furthermore, this study used two cases of handoff in vehicular networks. One case was non-overlapping handoff, and the other case was overlapping handoff. A simple formula was designed to calculate vehicular total buffer size in these two cases, and to adjust the data flow to the receiver. Finally, we used the network simulator to simulate the actual situation of vehicular motion and network transmission. This study proved the accuracy and feasibility of mechanism through the simulation result. This study achieved the streaming of seamless handoff control in the network of R2V.

Alkylphenols (APs) received great attention in the past decade because they were on the priority hazardous substances list. The kinetics of a lab-scale moving bed biofilm reactor (MBBR) that was fed with synthetic wastewater containing 4-NonylPhenol (4-NP) and 4-tert-OctylPhenol (4-t-OP) was investigated in this paper. The MBBR reactor was evaluated under different Aps, organic loading rates, and hydraulic retention times (HRT). The substrate removal rate was predicted with First order, Second order, Stover–Kincannon and the Monod substrate removal models.\n4-NP and 4-t-OP pollutants were removed in the different percentages of 87.1% to 99.9% and 83.2% to 99.9%, respectively. Biokinetic parameters like Y, KS, k, µmax and kd that would be favourable to design an MBBR were evaluated. Based on the results, the second-order (Grau), Stover–Kincannon and Monod models were observed to be the most suitable for this reactor. These models showed high correlation coefficients of about 99.6%, 99.1% and 92.9%, respectively. Consequently, these models could be utilized in anticipating the performance and design of MBBR reactors.
