This volume discusses the fundamental dynamic behaviour of granular materials, in particular cohesionless sand, when subjected to shock and blast wave loading. The contents of the book are mainly divided into three parts based on the type of loading imparted to the granular materials: Shock-wave loading (step pulse); Air-blast loading (Friedlander wave); Buried-blast loading. It provides a comprehensive review of the available testing methods, along with the necessary diagnostic measurements for material characterization, making it useful for researchers working in the area of blast protection and Impact engineering.
The developing peculiarity of the Internet of Things (IoT), which is that any thing equipped for being associated with the Internet will be, presents a remarkable chance for organizations. Utilizing a broad writing audit, the flow research analyzes the critical change in showcasing techniques that need to happen to focus on the millennial age of as they embrace IoT. Most examination characterizes the Millennial age as those brought into the world from the mid 1980s to the mid 2000s. As people in this age become older, there are two social ramifications: 1) their acknowledgment of innovation proposes they will rush to embrace IoT, and 2) their developing buying power and purchaser conduct make them an optimal objective for advertisers. Recent college grads who take on IoT offer their information all the more eagerly to advertisers and firms, which makes it simpler for advertisers to exactly gather information and target clients more. Furthermore, IoT gadgets will empower different stages for content promoting that are fundamentally unique in relation to and more successful than a 30 second TV plug or an advanced pennant notice.

India’s Aircraft Industry, despite having been formed as early as in December 1940 has been unable to meet the equipment needs of the aviation users, whether military or civil, in the country. As a consequence India imports all its aircraft needs from abroad. This situation needs to change. This book starts from an examination of the importance of aviation to the country both for military as well as or civil purposes. From here it goes on to trace the development of aviation in India. Then the book examines the Indian Aircraft Industry from studying the aircraft projects carried out by India. From these aircraft projects lessons and learning have been culled for use later in the book. Thereafter there are case studies carried out of the two leading airpower capability countries, the USA and erstwhile Soviet Union / Russia. There are also case studies of Brazil and China as these two countries were behind India in aviation in the 1950s but are globally competitive today, unlike India. The lessons and learning from the case studies are compiled and then used finally to develop possible models that could help make India’s aircraft industry globally competitive.
Explicatio Software Limited (ESL) is the rising star of the Indian IT industry. With thousands of employees and operations spread over five continents, it is about to join the billion-dollar club. With a niche market and several patents, it is a prime target for a takeover. KnowlejBase Inc. (KB) is a global management consulting, technology services, and outsourcing company with more than $30 billion in revenue. It decides to buy the entire stake from the original promoters of ESL. This saga unfolds through the eyes of four employees. They are about to experience a roller-coaster ride of emotions, anxiety, and agony. The life of all the ESL employees is about to change forever. They go through the painful phase of transition. The entire value system of the company is about to be replaced by an alien system. Careers end, jobs are lost, dreams are shattered, and panic spreads.

The book deals with development of comprehensive computational models for simulating underground coal gasification (UCG). It starts with an introduction to the UCG process and process modelling inputs in the form of reaction kinetics, flow patterns, spalling rate, and transport coefficient that are elaborated with methods to generate the same are described with illustrations. All the known process models are reviewed, and relative merits and limitations of the modeling approaches are highlighted and compared. The book describes all the necessary steps required to determine the techno-economic feasibility of UCG process for a given coal reserve, through modeling and simulation.
The book recounts the journey of Vivek ji and numerous others during the years 2022-23 along the revered banks of the Narmada river. The book is not just a travelogue of the author’s journey along the banks of the river, but also a documentation of the numerous ancient teerthas that are scattered along the holy banks of Narmada, which have been mostly forgotten by everyone. The teerthas are the starting point of the Narmada Parikrama, playing a crucial role in shaping this tradition. Vivek ji’s Narmada parikrama was a journey undertaken with the purpose of immersing oneself in the spiritual landscapes of the sacred Narmada river. However, it was the parikrama that ultimately uncovered and drew attention to the Teerthas.

Proportional-integral-derivative (PID) controllers are extensively used for efficient industrial operations. Autotuning such controllers is required for efficient operation. There are two ways of relay autotuning cascade control systems – simultaneous tuning and sequential tuning. This book discusses incorporation of higher order harmonics of relay autotuning for a single loop controller and cascade control systems to get accurate values of controller ultimate gain. It provides a simple method of designing P/PI controllers for series and parallel cascade control schemes. The authors also focus on estimation of model parameters of unstable FOPTD systems, stable SOPTD and unstable SOPTDZ systems using a single relay feedback test. The methodology and final results explained in this book are useful in tuning controllers. The text would be of use to graduate students and researchers for further studies in this area.
In the ruins of a medieval palace in Delhi, a unique phenomenon occurs: Indians of all castes and creeds meet to socialize and ask the spirits for help. The spirits they entreat are Islamic jinns, and they write out requests as if petitioning the state. At a time when a Hindu right wing government in India is committed to normalizing a view of the past that paints Muslims as oppressors, Anand Vivek Taneja's Jinnealogy provides a fresh vision of religion, identity, and sacrality that runs counter to state-sanctioned history. The ruin, Firoz Shah Kotla, is an unusually democratic religious space, characterized by freewheeling theological conversations, DIY rituals, and the sanctification of animals. Taneja observes the visitors, who come mainly from the Muslim and Dalit neighborhoods of Delhi, and uses their conversations and letters to the jinns as an archive of voices so often silenced. He finds that their veneration of the jinns recalls pre-modern religious traditions in which spiritual experience was inextricably tied to ecological surroundings. In this enchanted space, Taneja encounters a form of popular Islam that is not a relic of bygone days, but a vibrant form of resistance to state repression and post-colonial visions of India.
This book deals with the anatomy, diagnosis and inside story of ISO 9001:2015 — which leads to its rather self-explanatory name. Just as one dissects the anatomy of a living organism, the book dives into and separates each clause, sub-clause and sub-sub-clause, before focusing on the diagnosis of each. It also seeks to tell the readers about the inside story of ISO 9001:2015 which will be helpful for industries, organisations, entrepreneurs, proprietors, auditors (internal and external), consultants working in this area of ISO and the people at large who want to gain in-depth knowledge about ISO 9001:2015. This book has been written with an emphasis on the requirement in subject matter. It is hoped that the book will also help one to acquire a working knowledge of ISO 9001:2015 and provide one with a proper foundation —both conceptual and factual — to base further knowledge on.2
