Formulation and Evaluation of Paliperidone Palmitate Loaded Nanoparticles Using Biodegradable Polymers
Sreekanth M.C, Reshmi K, K.G Parthiban, Jerome K George, Anusha Ajayakumar – February 2019 Page No.: 01-06
Paliperidone palmitate also known as 9-hydroxyrisperidone, is a dopamine antagonist and 5-HT2A antagonist of the typical antipsychotic class of medications. The present study intends to carry out the formulation and evaluation of Paliperidone palmitate loaded biodegradable nanoparticles. The major goals in designing nanoparticles as a delivery system are to control particle size, surface properties, and release of pharmacologically active agents so as to achieve the site specific action of the drug at the rational rate and dose. Nanoparticles are synthesized by the nano-precipitation method. Nanoparticles of paliperidone palmitate were obtained with high encapsulation efficiency 60-80%. Nanoparticles are generally characterized by their size, morphology, surface charge using the advanced microscopic techniques such as Scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Drug entrapment efficiency was determined by centrifugation. These studies suggest the feasibility of formulating paliperidone palmitate loaded nanoparticles using a biodegradable polymer (Gelatin) for the treatment of psychotic disorders.

Man as Spiritual Being: Especially Tagore and Dr. Radhakrishnan’s View
Dr. Nirupama Bhattacharyya – February 2019 – Page No.: 11-12
The work gives an account of the views of Tagore and Radhakrishnan on man as spiritual being. The comparative and analytical study of views of both the philosophers will through new light of development in study of contemporary Indian philosophy. The capacity of man is finite. Man cannot with all its vigour and talent overcome the nature. It is dependent upon nature. The untamed umpteen endeavors of man pay a great dividend which elevated man above animal. Discussion would be carried out on Tagore’s concept of man as spiritual. Dr. Radhakrishnan regards man as essentially spiritual. The man is guided by certain ideals also shows that man is spiritual being. These ideals are Truth, Beauty, and Goodness.

A Survey on Various Techniques of Human Emotion Recognition and its Applications
Anjana C R – February 2019 – Page No.: 44-45
Humans show a variety of emotions according to the situation and identifying these emotions can be helpful in efficient communication. In the case of human- machine interaction, identifying the human’s emotion correctly is very important. In the current situation where machines act as an inevitable part of human life as an instructor, a helper, or even a companion, it would be helpful if the machines could understand the emotions of the human and act accordingly. Human emotions can be recognized from the tone of voice, facial expressions (which may be from image or from video), body language and using EEG (Electroencephalography). EEG is a technique that uses electrodes attached to the scalp to identify the tiny electrical charges that result from the activity of the brain cells for emotion detection [4]. But it is not always possible to wear the electrodes in order to communicate with a machine. So, more focus is given to the other techniques of emotion recognition. Emotion recognition from facial images is done by using image processing techniques. Various types of neural networks can be employed for identifying various expressions from faces in the images. Acoustic data can be collected and used for identifying emotions from sound input. The body language of a person can also convey some information about the emotional state of the individual.

An Integrated Security System for Home Users
X.Amala Princeton, S.Dhanalakshmi, S.Soundariya, T.Thangarani – February 2019 Page No.: 46-50
Virtual Private Network (VPN) provides security by encrypting and decrypting data that passes through a VPN connection; it does not offer protection from viruses or other malware. A VPN is basically a private network inside a public network. The core idea of this technology is to transmit data packages on the tunnel that can be formed by different tunneling protocols. Antivirus is designed to detect and remove viruses from computers and also protect against a variety of threats and malicious software’s such as Trojan horses, worms and etc. And antivirus does not offer protection from intruders and hackers. In our project, we proposed an integrated security system for home users by integrating antivirus with VPN. Using this, we can provide security from both internal (Antivirus) and external (VPN) layers. The aim of this project is to provide an integrated system for the home users that will protect them from intruders and other viruses.

Le Tien Phong, Nguyen Thi Thanh Thuy – February 2019 – Page No.: 51-56
This paper proposes some street lighting design solutions to reduce power consumption of lighting systems and adapt to the efficient lighting program. Proposed solutions will concern with luminaries, renewable energy and the operation of whole lighting system. Replacing traditional luminaries by light emitting diode luminaries and using dimmers in low density of vehicle is the first solution to reach the diminished purpose of power consumption. The second solution focuses on harnessing photovoltaic and wind power generations in isolated or grid-connected models to charge power to energy storage in daylight time. The third solution proposes a structure that combines expert system, artificial intelligence and communication technologies to have optimal operation for all lighting columns. A case study of isolated lighting column using photovoltaic power generation is concerned with more deeply and simulated in this paper. Simulation results carried out by MATLAB 2018a software showed the capability of harnessing maximum power point of photovoltaic power generation, power supply of battery and effect of dimmer in street lighting system.

A Survey on Secure Access in Online Transaction with Multi Party Face Identification
V. Jeeva, Dr. R. Ravi – February 2019 Page No.: 57-60
Internet banking services must be more responsive towards security for clients. Now a day in this network world, the way for cybercrime becomes so easier for hacking purpose. For this reason, network security has become one of the biggest challenges in today’s IT department’s security. Internet banking transaction should be layered protection against security threats; the providers should give security considerations as part of their service offerings. And by hearing a lot about hackers and crackers ways to steal any logical password or pincode number character, crimes of ID cards or credit cards fraud or security breaches. In existing framework, Identification can be equated to a username and is used to authorize access to a system. As usernames can be lost or stolen, it is necessary to validate that the intended user is really the person he or she claims to be – the authentication process. Authentication based on biometric and identification systems are the new solutions to address the issues of security and privacy. The Face Recognition is the study of physical or behavioral characteristics of human bio structure used for the identification of person. These physical characteristics of a person include the various features like fingerprints, face, hand geometry, voice, and iris biometric device. So implement real time authentication system using face biometrics for authorized the person for online banking system. The general objective of our project is to develop fully functional face recognition, verification system provide and understand the key aspects of these major technologies, namely those relating to the technological, application entity domain, social environmental system and performance aspects. And also provide multiparty access system to allow the multiple persons to access the same accounts by providing access privileges to original account holders. Experimental results show that the proposed system provide high level security in online transaction system than the existing traditional cryptography approach.

Material Optimization of the Connecting Rod by using Finite Element Approach
Venkatesh C, A. Jagatheeswaran – February 2019 – Page No.: 61-65
Connecting rod is the intermediate link between the piston and the crank. And is responsible to transmit the push and pull from the piston pin to crank pin, thus converting the reciprocating motion of the piston to rotary motion of the crank. Generally connecting rods are manufactured using carbon steel and in recent days aluminum alloys are finding its application in connecting rod. In this work connecting rod material optimization is done by replacing the existing model with aluminum based 6061 – T6 alloy material and SiC reinforced with Zirconium diboride. And it also describes the modeling and analysis of connecting rod. The 3D modeling of the part has been created by using CATIA V5 and FEA analysis was carried out by using ANSYS WORKBENCH. The parameter like von misses stress, von misses strain and deformations were obtained from ANSYS software considering two materials.

Addressing Accountability Failures of Public Listed Companies under Modern Corporate Governance Codes: Projected Goals, Failures and Mistreatments
Md. Omar Faruque Munshi – February 2019 – Page No.: 66-74
This paper in its legal theoretical analysis examines the success, failures and mistreatments of modern Corporate Governance Codes of companies. The Codes of most countries followed the common pattern of recommendations, pervasively expanded globally, in addressing the accountability failures of modern companies. The analyses of this paper find that the most important mistreatments under the Corporate Governance Codes stems from the failure to consider the presence of divergent interest-centric shareholder groups in modern public listed companies, who are fundamentally different in character in respect of their attachment and detachment to the actual business of the company and share market dynamism— the diffused ‘free-rider public investors’ who are loosely connected to the company’s substantial business, and the ‘entrepreneur shareholders’. Thus the modern public listed companies can no longer be equated with the classical companies. Also there are debenture holders, creditors, suppliers, dealers, employees, etc. The Codes’ defect is a ‘general accountability’ framework, not designed upon the interest-specific concerns and oversight performed by/for those different groups. Further that, the codes provisions in an attempt to bring accountability produced a conflicting Board structure by recommending the board’s composition with two types of directors, ‘executives’ and ‘non-executives/supervisory/monitoring’, whereas nothing is provided to address this conflict perspective. This paper intends to provide insight in formulating the accountability program under the Codes upon pragmatic treatments to the issues of modern companies, and ways for removing its shortcomings.

The experimental investigation of heat transfer and friction factor characteristics of double pipe heat exchanger using aluminum oxide water based nanofluid. In this present study the double pipe heat exchanger for a plain tube the heat transfer from hot water to cold water was experimentally investigated. This investigation also to find the Nusselt number, heat transfer coefficient, and Reynolds number. The experimental value of plain tube with water and Al2O3 was obtained from the experimental work and these two statistical data were compared with the results. The results shows that the heat transfer rate enhancement of induced with the nanofluids water based flow has give more heat transfer compared to the plain water. The Reynolds numbers were varied in the range of 5710 to 18366. The data obtained from the experimental value were compared with CFD simulation analysis. The performance of heat transfer characteristics of aluminum oxide nanofluids was enhanced compared with smooth plain water used. The experimental value of the heat transfer and friction factor characteristics was well bonding with simulation value of CFD analysis.
