Significance of thickness of paraboloid of revolution and buoyancy forces on the dynamics of EryingPowell fluid subject to equal diffusivity kind of quartic autocatalysis
The flows of non-Newtonian fluid over upper horizontal surfaces of rockets, over bonnets of cars, and pointed surfaces of aircraft are of great importance to the experts in the field of space sciences, automobile construction, and aerodynamic industry where efficiency is dependent on the thickness of paraboloid of revolution, buoyancy, and autocatalysis. The purpose of this study is to present not only the nonlinear governing equation which models the transport phenomenon, but also to analyze the non-Newtonian EryingPowell fluid flow within a thin layer formed on an object which is neither a perfect horizontal nor a vertical, and neither an inclined surface nor a cone/wedge. The governing equation suitable to model the transport phenomenon above for the case of equal diffusivity during quartic autocatalytic kind of chemical reaction was non-dimensionalized and solved numerically. The velocity of the flow along x?direction can be enhanced when thickness increases negligible but buoyancy forces increase significantly. The rate of increase in the velocity of the flow along the y?direction from the wall to the free stream is optimal when the thickness of the paraboloid of revolution is zero (objects with a uniform thickness) and buoyancy force is sufficiently large. The concentration of EryingPowell fluid at the wall G(0) is a decreasing function of Prandtl number but an increasing property of Schmidt number. 2020 Elsevier B.V. -
Significance of quadratic thermal radiation and quadratic convection on boundary layer two-phase flow of a dusty nanoliquid past a vertical plate
Boundary layer two-phase flow of particulate Al2O3-H2O nanoliquid over a vertical flat plate is studied numerically subjected to the aspects of quadratic thermal convection and quadratic thermal radiation. The Khanafer-Vafai-Lightstone monophasic nanofluid model (KVL model) and Saffman's dusty fluid model are used for the equations governing the flow of dusty nanoliquids. The quadratic Boussinesq approximation is used together with the Prandtl's boundary layer approximation. The non-linear problem is treated with the finite difference method. Surface plots and streamlines are presented to visualize the results. A comparison of linear thermal radiation, quadratic thermal radiation, and nonlinear thermal radiation is performed. Among the three types of radiation, the greatest heat transfer is observed in nonlinear thermal radiation followed by quadratic thermal radiation and linear thermal radiation. Also, in the presence of quadratic convection, the heat transport, and velocity field get enhanced. It is found that the presence of Al2O3 nanoparticles of 3% volume concentration in particulate water effectively advances the heat transport of the system. However, heat transport gets reduced by increasing the mass fraction of dust particles. Furthermore, in the presence of a transverse magnetic field, the velocity of the dusty nanoliquid gets reduced. 2020 -
Significance of nonlinear Boussinesq approximation and non-uniform heat source/sink on nanoliquid flow with convective heat condition: sensitivity analysis
The quadratic convective flow of nanoliquid over an elongating plate subjected to non-uniform heat source/sink, partial slip, and Newton boundary conditions is studied by using the modified Buongiorno model. The correlation for effective thermal conductivity and viscosity of nanoliquid are taken from the experimental work of Corcione. The dimensionless velocity, temperature, rate of heat transport, and mass transport distributions are simulated by solving the nonlinear boundary value problem using the finite difference method. The additional novelty of the present study is an application of response surface methodology to scrutinize the interactive impact of key parameters on the rate of heat transfer. Further, the influence of key parameters is deliberated on various flow fields using the surface and streamline plots. The higher velocities are noticed for the case of nonlinear Boussinesq approximation as compared with the usual Boussinesq approximation. The temperature enhances with a non-uniform heat source/sink aspect. The sensitivity of the heat transfer to the nanoparticle volume fraction remains positive. 2021, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to SocietItaliana di Fisica and Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature. -
Significance of Lorentz Force and Thermoelectric on the Flow of 29 nm CuO-Water Nanofluid on an Upper Horizontal Surface of a Paraboloid of Revolution
Combination of electric and magnetic forces on charged molecules of flowing fluid in the presence of a significant electromagnetic fields on surfaces with a nonuniform thickness (as in the case of upper pointed surface of an aircraft and bonnet of a car which are examples of upper horizontal surfaces of a paraboloid of revolution - uhspr) is inevitable. In this study, the influence of imposed magnetic field and Hall effects on the flow of 29 nm CuO-water nanofluid over such object is presented. Suitable similarity variables were employed to nondimensionalize and parameterize the dimensional governing equation. The numerical solutions of the corresponding boundary value problem were obtained using Runge-Kutta fourth-order integration scheme along with shooting technique. The domain of cross-flow velocity can be highly suppressed when the magnitude of imposed magnetic strength and that of Hall parameter are large. A significant increase in the cross-flow velocity gradient near an upper horizontal surface of the paraboloid of revolution is guaranteed with an increase in the Hall parameter. Enhancement of temperature distribution across the flow is apparent due to an increase in the volume fraction. 2019 by ASME. -
Significance of key distribution using quantum cryptography
The main challenge to the cryptosystems is providing secrecy in distributing key. This challenge is explained through key distribution problem. The key distribution in classical cryptosystems is based on classical information or bits. As bits can be replicable, there will be scope for an eavesdropper to make copies of information. The classical key distribution methods rely on computational assumptions which are not potential to offer anticipated results. Consequently, it is solved using laws of quantum mechanics, and the solution is Quantum Key Distribution (QKD). In QKD, the bits are encoded into quantum states or qubits using photon polarization. The qubits cannot be replicated as per the laws of quantum mechanics. An attempt to replication will introduce errors. Thus an eavesdropping will inevitably lead to detectable traces and then the legitimate entities will decide upon discarding a particular qubit. BB84 protocol is the first QKD protocol evolved in 1984. This paper notifies the significance of QKD over key distribution performed using classical methods. It is evidently shown that the time taken to distribute a secret key through BB84 QKD protocol is comparatively less than the classical methods of key distribution. 2018 ICIC International. -
Significance of Joule heating and viscous heating on heat transport of MoS2Ag hybrid nanofluid past an isothermal wedge
The problem of flow and heat transport of magneto-composite nanofluid over an isothermal wedge has not been addressed in the literature up to yet. Thus, this article features the laminar transport of Newtonian composite nanomaterial (C2H6O2H2O hybrid base liquid + MoS2Ag hybrid nanoparticles) in the presence of exponential space- and temperature-dependent heat source past an isothermal wedge. An incompressible and electrically conducting fluid is assumed. The effects of Joule heating and viscous heating are also accounted. Single-phase nanofluid model and boundary layer approximation are utilized to govern the equations of flow and heat transport phenomena. The solution of the simplified coupled system of dimensionless constraints is obtained by using the RungeKuttaFehlberg method based on the shooting technique. Detailed analysis of active quantities of interest has been presented and discussed. The interesting physical quantities (friction factors and Nusselt number) are estimated. Also, the slope of the data point is calculated in order to estimate the amount of decrease/increase in physical quantities. 2020, Akadiai Kiad Budapest, Hungary. -
Significance of induced magnetic field and exponential space dependent heat source on quadratic convective flow of Casson fluid in a micro-channel via HPM
The effects of the exponential space based heat source on quadratic convective flow of Casson fluid in a microchannel with an induced magnetic field is studied through a statistical approach. The flow is considered in vertical microchannel formed by two vertical plates. The solution for the governing equations has been obtained for the velocity, induced magnetic field and temperature field using Homotopy Perturbation Method (HPM). The current density, skin friction co-efficient and Nusselt number expressions are also estimated. The impact of various physical parameters on the velocity, temperature, induced magnetic field, current density, skin friction co-efficient and Nusselt number distributions have been discussed with the help of graphs. The results obtained by using HPM, are compared to those obtained by using the Runge-Kutta-Fehlberg 4-5th order method and an excellent agreement is found. The impact of Casson fluid parameter and the exponential heat source is qualitatively agreed for all flow fields. 2019 IIETA. -
Significance of inclined magnetic field on nano-bioconvection with nonlinear thermal radiation and exponential space based heat source: a sensitivity analysis
The characteristics of heat transport in nanoliquids under the influence of bio-convection (motile microorganism) have significant applications, since nanoliquids have greater capacity to improve heat transport properties than conventional liquids. With these incredible nanoliquid characteristics, the main objective of current research is to examine the impact of the exponential heat source linked to space and the inclined magnetic force on the nano-bioconvective flow between two turntables. The effect of nonlinear thermal radiation, variable thermal conductivity and viscosity aspects are also considered. The complicated nonlinear problem is treated numerically by using Finite difference method. Optimization procedure implemented via Response surface Methodology for the effective parameters thermophoresis parameter, Hartmann number and radiation parameter on the heat transfer rate. The axial velocity is a dwelling function of the inclined angle of the magnetic field, and the variable viscosity parameter. The temperature profile hikes with an exponential space-related heat source and thermal radiation aspects. Also, the heat transport rate is highly sensitive towards nonlinear thermal radiation parameter compared to the thermophoresis effect and Hartmann number. 2021, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to EDP Sciences, SocietItaliana di Fisica and Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature. -
Significance of extra-framework monovalent and divalent cation motion upon CO2 and N2 sorption in zeolite X
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 -
Significance of exponential space-based heat source and inclined magnetic field on heat transfer of hybrid nanoliquid with homogeneousheterogeneous chemical reactions
Many chemical reactive methods, like combustion, catalysis, and biochemical involve homogeneousheterogeneous chemical reaction(HHCR). The collaboration amongthe heterogeneous and homogeneous reactions is exceedingly multifarious, including the creation and depletion both within the liquid and catalytic surfaces. Here, we observe the influences of Cuand Al2O3nanoparticles past an elongating sheet under HHCR. An inclined magnetic field with an acute angle is applied to the direction of the flow. Further, radiative heat, temperature, and exponential space-based heat source aspects are modifying the thermal equation. The governing nonlinear equations are deciphered by utilizing the RungeKutta-based shooting method. It is found that HHCRreduces the solute layer thickness, whereas the increase in the angle of inclination of applied magnetism thickens momentum layer thickness. 2021 Wiley Periodicals LLC -

Significance of exponential space- and thermal-dependent heat source effects on nanofluid flow due to radially elongated disk with Coriolis and Lorentz forces
In this paper, the nanofluid flow near an infinite disk which stretches in the radial direction in the presence of exponential space-based heat source (ESHS) and thermal-based heat source (THS) is investigated. The Brownian motion and thermophoresis effects are accounted to study the nanofluids. Effects of radial magnetism and the Coriolis force are also deployed. The pertinent nonlinear equations are approximated under boundary layer notion and modified von Km transformations. The subsequent nonlinear differential system is treated via shooting method. The impacts of controlling parameters on flow profiles are discussed and depicted with the aid of graphs. Results show that as the ESHS and THS parameters increase, the thermal field increases. However, ESHS phenomenon is highly influential than THS phenomenon on energy transport and its gradient. Further, it is found that thermophoresis slip mechanism has more effect on heat transport rate than the Brownian motion. 2019, Akadiai Kiad Budapest, Hungary. -

Significance of buoyancy, velocity index and thickness of an upper horizontal surface of a paraboloid of revolution: The case of non-Newtonian carreau fluid
The problem of fluid flow on air-jet weaving machine (i.e. mechanical engineering and chemical engineering) is deliberated upon in this report using the case of non-Newtonian Carreau fluid flow. In this report, the boundary layer flow of the fluid over an upper horizontal surface of a paraboloid of revolution is presented. The dimensional governing equations were nondimensionalized, parameterized, solved numerically and discussed. Maximum horizontal velocity is ascertained at smaller values of thickness parameter, a larger value of buoyancy related parameter and the flow is characterized as shear-thickening. Local skin friction coefficient is an increasing and a decreasing property of Deborah number for Shear thinning and Shear-thickening cases of the flow respectively. The velocity of the flow parallel to the surface (uhspr) is a decreasing property of thickness parameter and increasing function of velocity index parameter. 2018 Trans Tech Publications, Switzerland. -

Significance of bar quenching in the global quenching of star formation
The suppression of star formation in the inner kiloparsec regions of barred disk galaxies due to the action of bars is known as bar quenching. We investigate here the significance of bar quenching in the global quenching of star formation in the barred galaxies and their transformation to passive galaxies in the local Universe. We do this by measuring the offset of quenched barred galaxies from star-forming main sequence galaxies in the star formation rate-stellar mass plane and comparing it with the length of the bar, which is considered as a proxy of bar quenching. We constructed the star formation rate-stellar mass plane of 2885 local Universe face-on strong barred disk galaxies (z< 0.06) identified by Galaxy Zoo. The barred disk galaxies studied here fall on the star formation main sequence relation with a significant scatter for galaxies above stellar mass 1010.2M. We found that 34.97% galaxies are within the intrinsic scatter (0.3 dex) of the main sequence relation, with a starburst population of 10.78% (above the 0.3 dex) and a quenched population of 54.25% (below the-0.3 dex) of the total barred disk galaxies in our sample. Significant neutral hydrogen (MHI > 109Mwith log MHI/M?-1.0 to-0.5) is detected in the quenched barred galaxies with a similar gas content to that of the star-forming barred galaxies. We found that the offset of the quenched barred galaxies from the main sequence relation is not dependent on the length of the stellar bar. This implies that the bar quenching may not contribute significantly to the global quenching of star formation in barred galaxies. However, this observed result could also be due to other factors such as the dissolution of bars over time after star formation quenching, the effect of other quenching processes acting simultaneously, and/or the effects of environment.

Significance of aggregation of nanoparticles, activation energy, and Hall current to enhance the heat transfer phenomena in a nanofluid: a sensitivity analysis
The mechanisms involved in the heat transport enhancement due to suspended nanoparticles are still unclear. Many studies have shown that nanoparticle aggregation is a key aspect of increasing nanofluid thermal conductivity. Nevertheless, the fractal dimension of nanoparticle aggregation will have a substantial impact on the nanofluids thermal conductivity. Therefore, the present study examines the influence of nanoparticle aggregation and Hall current on the nanoliquid flow past a spinning disk. The importance of Arrhenius activation energy is also investigated. A revised correlation for the aggregation mechanism is attained using the modified Krieger-Dougherty model (KD-model) and the Maxwell-Bruggeman model (MB-model). A similarity technique and finite difference method are used to construct the numerical solutions for the boundary value problem. The 2D plots and 3D surface plots are shown to investigate how different key parameters impact the velocity, temperature, and concentration fields. The study highlights that the Hall current has a beneficial effect on the fluid flow field. Higher activation energy leads to a productive chemical reaction which, improves the concentration layer. The thermal boundary for NPs aggregationis superior than to that withoutNPs aggregation, and the suspension of nanoparticles will have a favorable impact on the thermal layer. 2022 Informa UK Limited, trading as Taylor & Francis Group. -
Signature based key exchange for securing data and user from web data stealing attacks
Due to the immense technological growth, web and its related applications are becoming a major part of everyday life. The growth of the internet and technology not only increases the positive benefits but also increases negative activities such as data theft. As web applications are used frequently for many online services, it is the most common and valuable target for the adversary to host any web vulnerabilities. Data theft or data stealing attacks are quite common in the web and the internet with severe consequences. The private data are generally stored on the system which gives an opportunity for the attacker to steal the data from the storage or during transit. However, apart from stealing the critical data from the user, the attacker also steals the sensitive data from the web applications. This type of attack takes several forms for stealing perilous information from the user and web application. Unfortunately, these attacks are easy to execute as the attacker needs only the internet connection, a web server and technical knowledge which are readily available. Several prevention strategies exist to thwart the user and the application from the web attacks, however, they do not provide the complete solution. This paper presents the signature based key exchange to prevent the user as well as the web application from several variations of data stealing attacks through mutual attestation. The experimental results show that the proposed method prevents the user and application from data theft than any other existing methods. BEIESP. -
Sign reversal of the spontaneous and induced polarisation in a mixture of achiral liquid crystal host and chiral azo dopant
Achiral liquid crystal, possessing orthogonal smectic A and tilted smectic C phases in its phase sequence, was doped with a chiral photochromic azo dopant. It was found that the spontaneous and induced polarisation in the tilted smectic C* phase and in the orthogonal smectic A phase, respectively, change their sign, as well as their magnitude, under illumination with UV light. The origin of this sign reversal effect is considered to be the different sign of the molecular net dipole moment component y of trans- and cis-isomers of the photochromic azo dopant, respectively. This light-induced sign reversal effect seems to have large potential for applications in the light-light controlled photonic liquid crystal devices, based on this effect. 2023 The Author(s).

Sign Language Recognizer Using HMMs
In our day to day lives, we come across especially abled people who perform their daily chores with the aid of motivation that they get from self-confidence. There are many with hearing impairment. Sign language is the most expressed and natural way for them to communicate. Some chains of restaurants have, in fact, recruited deaf servers providing them with employment opportunities. Therefore, automatic Sign language recognition has become the crux of vision research. This paper is based on a project that builds a system that can recognize words communicated using the American Sign Language (ASL). Having been provided with a preprocessed dataset of tracked hand and nose positions extracted from the video, the set of Hidden Markov Models are trained. Using a part of this dataset, identification of individual words from test sequences is done. It provides them with the ability to communicate better, opening up a lot of opportunities. 2021, The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd.
