Significance of extra-framework monovalent and divalent cation motion upon CO2 and N2 sorption in zeolite X
subject: Adsorption; Divalent cations; Flue gas; GCMC (Grand Canonical Monte Carlo); Zeolite-X
description: Experimental observations and the GCMC (Grand Canonical Monte Carlo) simulations with fixed and mobile cations in their cavities have been used to study nitrogen and carbon dioxide sorption in divalent cation (Ca, Sr, and Ba) exchanged Zeolite X. Simulations of carbon dioxide and nitrogen adsorption isotherms and the heat of adsorption in divalent cation exchanged zeolite X produced results that were similar to those found in experimental results. Both experimental and simulated isotherms showed that carbon dioxide adsorption capacity is saturated at lower pressure with high adsorption capacity than the nitrogen isotherm in all zeolite samples. In the order of electronegativity of the extra-framework cations, the isosteric heat of sorption results show that carbon dioxide as well as nitrogen molecules interact more with divalent metal ion exchanged zeolites. Simulations of carbon dioxide and the nitrogen sorption in zeolite -X revealed that the mobile extra-framework cations in the cages of zeolite X had a significant advantage over zeolite molecular sieves in the separation process. The simulation with mobile cations can be a good tool for developing selective and purposeful zeolite-based adsorbents by knowing the cation position and its migration upon the adsorption of various gases. 2022

P4 based Load Balancing Strategies for Large Scale Software-Defined Networks
subject: DPDK; Load Balancing mechanisms; P4 Language; SHELL; Software-Defined Network
description: To meet the large demands of future networks, several large-scale Software Defined Networking (SDN) test-beds have been designed. The increasing complexity of networks has resulted in convoluted methods for managing and orchestrating efficiently across a wide range of network environments. The load balance function is impaired when the controller fails to connect with the switches. A traditional Load Balancer (LB) must decapsulate layers one by one and get the information needed to run load balancing algorithms. For instance, OpenFlow, NetConf, Programming Protocol-independent Packet Processors (P4), and Data Plane Developement Kit (DPDK) provide network programmability at both the control and data plane levels. In this paper, authors implement load balancing using the P4 programming language without the need of a controller, the P4 load balancer can operate on its own. Controller's support is used to keep track on the health of the web servers. In this situation, the controller can identify a server failure and notify the P4 load balancer, which will restrict requests to the malfunctioning server, lowering the dispatching failure rate. A detailed investigation of various load balancing mechanisms is analysed in this paper followed by the identification of four potential approaches to large-scale SDN tests, including connection hash, weighted round-robin, DPDK technique, a Stateless Application-Aware Load-Balancer (SHELL). 2022 IEEE.

Secure Authenticated Communication Via Digital Signature And Clear List In VANETs
description: Vehicular ad hoc network (VANET) plays a vital role in the intelligent transportation system(ITS), When a vehicle receives a message through network, the CRL (certificate revocation list) checking process will operate before certificate and signature verification. After successful authentication,a CRL list is created based on authentication. This CRL is used to verify whether a vehicle node can be permitted for communication in the VANET network. But when using CRL, a huge amount of storage space and checking time is needed. So we proposed a method without CRL list, but mentions a key management list to overcome large storage space and checking time even it reduce the access delay too. For the access permission we can do an authentication system based digital novel signature authentication(DNSA) for each vehicles in the vanet with the RSU unit or with other participant node vehicles in the communication as per the Topology.So we can perform an efficient and secured communication in VANET.

subject: CBIR; CBMIR; Euclidean Distance Method; LBP; Precision; Recall
description: Due to the revolution of digital era in the medical domain at various hospitals across the world, the online users on the internet access have been increased. So the amount of collections of digitized medical images has grown rapidly and continuously. As well it is ratting significant to mention that the images are globally used by radiologists, professors in medical colleges and Lab technicians, etc. These Images are increasingly applied to communicate information about patient history. In this context, there is a necessity to develop appropriate systems to manage these medical images in storage and retrieval for diagnosis of the patient information. Another big issue is the convolution of image data and that can be interpreted in different ways. In order to manipulate these data and establish policies to its content is very tedious job. This will raise another big question. These issues motivated the researchers to give more focus on the image retrieval area whose goal is trying to solve those problems to provide an efficient retrieval system to the user community. In this perspective, this work has been proposed to facilitate radiologists, professors in medical colleges, lab technicians, and all other medical image user communities for their purpose for easy access from the remote location. 2022 IEEE.

Impact of Urban Environmental Quality, Residential Satisfaction, and Personality on Quality of Life among Residents of Delhi/NCR
description: Environmental quality and Sustainability seek to preserve, enhance and protect our environmental resources that directly aim at providing an amicable quality of life and sustainable development for the upcoming generations. Considering the hazardous environmental urban quality in Delhi NCR, air pollution is the topmost factor deteriorating health of the population in general. The urban air database by WHO reports Delhi exceeding the maximum PM10 limit by almost 10-times at 292 ?g/m3. Noticing that an individual's surroundings have an enormous value in human lives, the study aimed at understanding the impact of urban environmental quality, residential satisfaction, and personality on the quality of life among residents of Delhi NCR. In addition, we also track the environmental worldviews to attitudes on pro-environmental behavior in understanding sustainability. The results from the SEM model indicated that one index rise in RESS lead to a fall in quality of life by 0.029-point value whereas one index rise in personality could enhance the quality of life by 0.15-point value. Pro-Environmental Behaviors and Urban Environmental factors did not showcase any significant impact on the quality of life. The Electrochemical Society.

Effect of Doping in Aluminium Nitride (AlN) Nanomaterials: A Review
description: Piezoelectric materials can generate electrical charges when subjected to mechanical pressure through the piezoelectric effect. In addition to generating electricity from environmental vibrations, they are also used as nano energy generators for micro electro mechanical systems (MEMS). Aluminum Nitride (AlN) with a doping element exhibits unique physical and chemical properties. It is used to manufacture many electromechanical devices. They are ideal candidates for many applications, including MEMS resonators and microwave filters, due to their large piezoelectric coefficient and low resistance. A number of material properties led to its selection, including high thermal conductivity, good mechanical strength, high resistance, corrosion resistance, and the largest piezoelectric coefficient. A piezoelectric coefficient d33 characterizes the piezoelectric response of AlN thin films. By doping this material, a wide range of applications have been explored. The Electrochemical Society

Do Millennial Exhibit Environmentally Responsive Consumption BehaviorsA Study on Determinants of Green Purchase Decision?
subject: Consumers environmental beliefs; Environmental concerns; Green products; Purchase behavior
description: The purchase behavior of green products is largely affected by the intention-action gap and skepticism present among consumers. The purpose of this study was to analyze the various factors that affect the purchase behavior of green products among millennials. The practical benefit of this research is that it will assist in the convergence of green marketing and environmental consumer behavior theories. The theory used in the study is the theory of planned behavior. It helps to understand the specific behaviors of consumers as a possibility of a particular behavioral intention. For this purpose, we identified five constructs, namely, Environmental Concerns and Belief (ECB), Eco-Labelling (EL), Green Packaging and Branding (GPB), Green Product, Premium, and Pricing (GPPP), and Consumers Beliefs Towards the Environment (CBTE). These constructs have helped in identifying and analyzing the various factors that affect the purchase behavior of green products among millennials. We analyzed the purchase behavior of green products using a questionnaire approach. For this descriptive study, there were 251 millennials as our respondents who were chosen using the convenience sampling technique. The data was collected through a structured questionnaire via Google form and was analyzed using regression analysis, correlation. It was found that the key factors of green marketing such as Environmental Concerns and Beliefs (ECB), Green Packaging and Branding (GPB), and Green Product, Premium and Pricing (GPPP) have a positive influence on Consumers Beliefs Towards the Environment (CBTE). It implies that by increasing the spending on green packaging and branding there will be a positive effect on consumers environmental beliefs. On the other hand, Eco-Labelling (EL) has a negative influence on Consumers Beliefs Towards the Environment (CBTE) and this is caused by skepticism present among millennials. 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG.

Nature's Lament: A Comparative Psychoanalytical Reading of Childhood Trauma in Select War Narratives
description: Sustainable Development has become an inevitable need of the hour. This paper problematizes the trauma of children as represented in the narratives, Beasts of No Nation by Uzodinma Iweala and A Long Way Gone by Ishmael Beah. The incomprehensibility of trauma, it's varied representation in fiction, dissociation of child psyche, and its detrimental effect on children is substantiated using psychoanalytic theory of trauma proposed by Cathy Caruth and contemporary trauma theorists. The paper argues the atrocities children are forced to be involved into, causes profound trauma in themselves leading to, encumbering of sustainable developmental goals. A comparative study of interpretive textual analysis is employed to study the havoc the society endears as a result of war, that wrecks the child, hindering the overall sustainable development. As it voices out the voiceless trauma of children the paper also aims in divulging the decisive influence of the select literary narratives in sensitizing the society in achieving societal as well as environmental sustainability.
