Green energy generation from speed breakers

In this technical research article, I am using a double sided rack and pinion arrangement to generate energy. Rack and Pinion arrangement is a mechanism which is used to convert the reciprocating motion to rotary motion. Whenever a vehicle would pass over the breaker, it would push it down. So rack will move downward and will rotate the gears. A gear train is used to increase the speed ratio at shaft of generator. Then the springs will push the breaker upside to its initial position and again it will rotate the gears. As the shaft of D.C. generator starts rotating, it produces electricity.

Security objectives based key management algorithm for device-to-device applications

D2D communications is the promising technology that is essential in the next generation of the mobile network. One of the basic restrictions of deploying this technique is the lack of security objectives which depends on user entities reliability and network capabilities; this issue imposes more expensive choices adopted by the network especially when user entities are out of coverage. Our work concentrated on designing the transmissions between the network and the out of coverage user entities to achieve a set of desired security requirements based on network policy applied by the SDN.

Somaliland and somalia peace- building process: actors, interventions, and experiences

Somaliland and Somalia peace-building process has had some divergent experiences, actors and interventions. The reconciliation efforts in the peace-building initiatives in Somaliland, for instance, did not commence at the time Mohamed Siyad Barre’s regime was defeated. It was the agenda of the Somali National Movement (SNM) to reconcile the clans which have been engaged in a long period of fighting since 1988-1990. This is subsequently facilitated the restoration of peace and stability in Somaliland.

A new archaeobotanical protocol for collecting concentrated wood charcoal from archaeological bonfire sites

Wood charcoal is the most commonly found bioarchaeological testimony at archaeological sites. In addition to dating sites, charcoal provides insights into the way of life of past populations and paleoenvironment reconstruction. Concentrated charcoal is usually recovered from archaeological bonfires. This paper proposes a new field protocol for standardized collection and registration of archaeological charcoal recovered from combustion structures, and which can be applied to different types of archaeological sites.

Weight loss: a cause or a consequence of wilkie’s syndrome

The Superior mesenteric artery syndrome (SMAS) known as Wilkie's syndrome is a rare cause of duodenal obstruction. It is a disorder in which acute angulation of the SMA causes compression of the third part of the duodenum between the SMA and the aorta, following the disappearance of perivascular fatty tissue after advanced malnutrition. The diagnosis requires a high degree of clinical suspicion of upper gastrointestinal obstruction plus progressive weight loss, with radiographic studies demonstrating compression of the third portion of the duodenum.

And since then, the violent and sectarian unrest in Syria has brought increased attention to the role of citizen journalism. Social media indeed played a part in the Arab uprisings.

A chemical comparison of two naturally occurring pods as potential animal feed resources

Virtual disappearance of nutritious grass in the dry season in Zimbabwe is compensated by trees and shrubs which make an essential part of livestock rearing systems in smallholder farming communities. Appetite is shown to naturally occurring tree pods, Acacia sieberiana and Dichrostachys cinerea whose pods and leaves are highly palatable to cattle. The experiment compared and determined the chemical composition of these two species of pods as animal feed.

Effect of recombinant bovine somatotropin on heamotological values in kundhi buffaloes

This study was performed to investigate the effect of recombinant bovine Somatotropin (rbST) treatment on some haemortological in primaparous Kundhi buffaloes. Sixteen primaparous Kundhi buffaloes were divided into two groups keeping 8 animals in each group. Group-I served as control and Group-II was treated with 250 mg of rbST fortnightly for 166 days of 1st lactation. The rbST treatment was started after 60 days of lactation. Blood samples were collected every week during pre-treatment (average 60 days) and post-treatment (average 166 days) of 1st lactation.
