Solution to the Arsenic Problem in West Bengal: Exploring Some Non-Conventional Ways
Abstract: Some districts of West Bengal have severe arsenic contamination of soil and groundwater. The clinical manifestations of arsenic toxicity include severe skin lesions; diseases of respiratory, cardiovascular, excretory system, hepatological, haematological and neurological disorders; and even death. We have isolated arsenic-resistant bacteria which have the adaptability to survive in high arsenic concentration, accumulate arsenic and convert it to its less toxic form. Therefore, we propose bioremediation as a cost-effective and …

Free Vibration Analysis of a Centre-Cracked Plate at Various Orientations through Finite Element Method
Abstract: The free vibration analysis of square centre-cracked plate at various orientations is investigated using the finite element method. In this research, the effect of cracked orientation, variation in cracked length, and variation in thickness of the plate are investigated. Consideration for a variety of edge condition is given through a combination of simply supported, free boundary and clamped boundary condition and determined the mode shapes and natural frequency of a …
