WALLS, FINISHES AND APPENDAGES TOWARD COMPLETE CARCASS[ ]


In the twenty-first century building construction has since changed from the rudimental, old traditional system of construction; to conventional method of construction, which metamorphosed to modern building construction. Today, we are talking of ‘Kit’ or package building which could be built like a ‘pagoda’. Howbeit, the aforementioned do not need special masonry walls but none the less, walls effectiveness and efficiency could not be over-emphasize. In this context, walls, (different types) Finishes, appendages toward complete carcass has been enunciated with some calculations to depict number of blocks and other materials, equipment need for final Turnkey construction.

An Application of Estimating Process Capability Indices Based on Weibull Shape Parameter[ ]


Process capability indices always been debated by quality practitioners for the measurements come from normal and non-normal controlled processes but indices based on parameter(s) of non-normal distribution is not formally discussed. This paper is an application of a procedure to estimate capability indices based on Weibull shape parameter of a process whose measurements come from two parameter Weibull distribution. A data consisting of Weibull measurements is taken, Sampling distribution based on Weibull shape parameter using rank regression method is obtained, assumptions before estimating indices are checked and four basic indices are summarized along with their confidence intervals at certain level of significance. The program is made in R-console and results shows that indices based on Weibull shape parameter can results equivalently as estimated indices based on process measurements of same process.

Perception of the Birth of Girls as an Anathema and Its Consequences in Pakistani Society[ ]


This is flabbergasting to know that the birth of a baby girl is still deemed as a curse in conservative Pakistani families mostly living in rural areas. The girls are discriminated from the womb to dearth. Prenatal sex determination gives rise to abortions resulting in medical complications among the mothers. This discrimination prove a big hindrance for promoting equality and attaining of universal rights of children especially, in our country, where a patriarchal system of social relations predominates, parents prioritize the male child and this priority can be seen in their social and cultural rehearses, social prestige and economic potentiality .Such preferences negatively influence the girls' educational right, welfare, health and even survival opportunities.

Using Mobile-Enabled Devices for Engagement and Monitoring of Patient with Chronic Disease: Hypertensive Case[ ]


Handling of chronic disease in Nigeria health care system is perfunctory as illnesses that require long-term monitoring get very little or no attention due to lack of proper facilities to handle such cases. Use of traditional mode of patient monitoring system where patient visit hospital to see doctor is still order of the day in our hospitals. Hence result to bad management of chronic diseases and long queue in the various hospital across the nation. This research addressed the problems associated with the use of the traditional mode of engagement of patient with chronic diseases. The research is focused on design a Remote Patient Monitoring System for monitoring patients with chronic condition by healthcare provider. The system will supports and allows for greater care of patient with chronic disease like hypertension.

Numerical Investigation on the Effect of Conning Tower in Submarine[ ]


Conning tower’s use in the submarine is increasing due to its excellent underwater operation characteristics. Therefore, this investigation aims to investigate fluid flow characteristics at different conning tower position on the submarine in order to obtain the conning tower position that generates lower drag coefficient, which results in lower energy consumption of the submarine. The conning tower was placed in 5 different positions on submarine’s cylindrical middle portion and thereby determining the position of the conning tower in a submarine at which lowest drag coefficient occurs.

Analysis and Experimental Validation For Fatigue Behavior of Composite Material Helical Compressive Spring used for Four Wheeler Suspension System[ ]


The best way to increase the fuel efficiency is to reduce the weight of the automobiles by employing composite materials in the structure of the automobiles. Metal coil springs can be replaced by composite springs because of high strain energy, less weight and high corrosion resistance. Carbon pre-peg epoxy based composite spring is the best alternate to metallic springs and e-glass epoxy based composite springs. A composite helical spring is developed using mould making process and experimental fatigue testing are carried out on E-Glass fiber based spring. The results indicate that E-Glass fibers are superior in structural parameters compared to metallic springs.
