Statistical and Artificial Neural Network for the Determination of Thermo-Physical Properties of Fomoditine Drug Using Mixed Hydrotropy
Abstract: The experimental determination of thermo-physical properties of fomoditine drug–mixed hydrotrope concentration mixture is very time consuming as well as tedious process. Any tool helpful in estimation of these properties without experimentation can be of immense utility. In present work, other tools of determination of properties of fomoditine drug–mixed hydrotrope concentration blends were tried. A traditional statistical technique of linear regression (principle of least squares) was used to estimate the specific …

Analysis and Design of Tapered Web Pre-engineered Building (PEB) Structure for Siesmic Zones
Abstract: The use of PEB instead of a conventional steel building (CSB) design idea resulted in a number of benefits, since the members were designed according to a bending moment diagram, lowering the amount of material required. Because of its high-quality pre-design and prefabrication, as well as its light weight and cost-effectiveness, this methodology is flexible. If we use ordinary steel constructions, the time frame will be longer, and the cost …

REVIEW PAPER ON HYBRID SOLAR WIND RENEWABLE POWER SYSTEMS
Abstract: Solar and wind energy have increased greatly in the past few years. In this study, we proposed a hybrid energy system that combines solar panels with wind turbines to replace traditional sources of electricity, such as thermal and hydropower. Renewable energy is becoming increasingly popular as an unrealistic alternative source of electricity to traditional power generation. Electricity demand is growing every day, and non-renewable energy alone cannot be met. Renewable …
