Exploring the Insider-Outsider Perspective in Interpreting Indigenous Built Heritage: A Case of Sahariya Tribe in Madhya Pradesh
Abstract: Globally, cross-cultural research has become important especially for understanding marginalized and vulnerable voices allowing researchers to find answers resonating with these communities’ lived experiences. A very critical concept in cross-cultural research is the insider-outsider positionality as subjective interpretations contribute towards determining the notion of heritage and influence the outcome of the qualitative research. This paper examines the above-mentioned duality in establishing built heritage of tribal communities in Indian context. In …

Comprehensive Review of Membrane Fouling Control Mechanisms
Abstract: One of the biggest problems with membrane-based separation procedures is membrane fouling. As particles, organic matter, microbes, and other materials build up on the membrane’s surface or inside its pores, the effectiveness of membranes – such as those used in reverse osmosis, ultrafiltration, and microfiltration – declines over time. The effectiveness and longevity of the membrane are eventually lowered because of this fouling, which causes a drop in flux and …
