The anthropometric measurements are mainly used to design human fitted tools, clothing, workstation, personal equipment, comfortable devices that increases human comfort, safety, quality of working and efficiency. The intension of this paper is to forecast the anthropometric characteristics of Bangladeshi population by geographical region (Khulna Division- Khulna, Bagerhat, Chuadanga, Jessore, Kushtia, Magura, Meherpur, Narail and Satkhira), age and gender which are used for various purposes of design. We have considered here both male and female. This is based on the study done with several industries from districts in Khulna Division of Bangladesh. There are almost 300 measurements in anthropometry but used only 36 of them because these measurements are commonly used in industry. The measurements are almost same and does not vary too much except the tribal region. Here we calculated 5P, 50P and 95P which will help to design an adjustable system which will consider flexible to all.
Noise pollution which is an unwanted sound is one of the most dangerous environmental pollution because it usually leads to damage of auditory and even leads to stress for human in most cases. This research work investigate environmental noise produce by fuelless power generating set and gasoline power generating set of the same capacity (1KVA). The materials used for this research work includes, 1KVA Gasoline Generating set, 1KVA Fuelless Generating set, Extech sound meter, meter rule, load box, multimeter and stop watch. Extech Instrument Sound Level Meter and meter rule was used to determine the sound performance of the electrical machines. The result of the research revealed that the sound performance analysis for fuelless Power generating set is within the allowable range set (38.4dB) by Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) Federal Safety regulations (2007) compared to gasoline power generating set with 66.5dB. In wrapping up the investigation on the fuelless and gasoline generating set in terms of noise assessment, the analysis has clearly revealed that fuelless generating set noise is better than gasoline power generator of the same capacity.
The shipping amount of commodity goods (Foods, confectionery, dairy products, such as public cosmetic pharmaceutical products) changes irregularly at the distribution center dealing with the general consumer goods. Because the shipment time and the amount of the shipment are irregular, the demand forecast becomes very difficult. For this, the inventory control becomes difficult, too. It cannot be applied to the shipment of the commodity by the conventional inventory control methods. This paper proposes the method for inventory control by cumulative flow curve method. It proposed the method of deciding the order quantity of the inventory control by the cumulative flow curve. Here, it proposes three methods. 1) Power method, 2) Polynomial method and 3) Revised Holt’s linear method that forecasts data with trends that is a kind of exponential smoothing method. This paper compares the economics of the conventional method, which is managed by the experienced and three new proposed methods. And, the effectiveness of the proposal method is verified from the numerical calculations.
Herein we study propagation of surface waves at a boundary of an isotropic media and a multilayered hyperbolic metamaterial. The structure dispersion is discussed for various cases of a hyperbolic metamaterial. It is demonstrated that it is possible to tune the frequency range of surface waves by varying the thickness of dielectric sheets. It is also shown that this frequency range can be broadened by decreasing the thickness of the dielectric in the metal-dielectric compound or by replacing the isotropic media with a metal. It is also shown that the mentioned effect can be achieved by increasing the doping concentration of the semiconductor if the metamaterial/semiconductor structure is considered. The effective medium approximation is used and its validity in the long-wavelength limit is justified by investigating the electromagnetic field variations over one period of the proposed structure.
Steganography is the art and science of hiding sensitive data inside an image. There are so many cryptosystems that use Steganography as a major tool. Also in recent years there is a rising trend towards chaotic sequence based cryptosystems. This paper attempts to combine the two with a new algorithm for data hiding. Here key images required for Steganography are generated using chaotic sequence. Also an attempt is made to overcome the limitations of Steganography on the file size ratio and the security offered by Steganography.
Developed countries have played a dominant role in the process of globalization. The terms of exchange and trade practices have remained skewed, with the developed states successfully rigging the rules despite the regime of open trade practices resulting from the establishment of the WTO regime. Developed countries are core members of international institutions (WTO, IMF and WB) and they have largely determined policies of these institutions till date. The provisions of the WTO are likely to produce a mixture of positive and negative consequences in the context of developing countries economy. There are some issues under the Agreement of Agriculture which are concern for developing countries. The repercussions of the WTO Agreement and the removal of Quantitative Restrictions on imports are quite alarming. The fall in the prices of agricultural goods and dumping of cheap agriculture commodities from other countries is causing harm to the welfare of developing countries farmers. Developed countries have imposed heavy tariffs to minimize imports, whereas in like India tariffs are low. The continuation of high domestic support to agriculture in developed countries is a cause of concern. At the same time the rich industrialized countries continue to subsidize farmers by giving them direct payments which are exempt from any reductions requirement.. in mid 1990s, various Associtations have formed larger alliances to protest against state Government on the issue of various WTO policy. In this process of opposition to WTO these movements in Developing countries have begun to raise a new discourse on democracy and invent political practices associations. On the above backdrop, this paper has tried to find out the reasons for the protest movement against the outcomes of various ministrial conference and particlualry the Nairobi conference.
The research is conducted to test the impact of firm performance on stock returns, evidence from the firms listed on FTSE-100 Index, London Stock Exchange over the period 2005 to 2014. In this study the researcher used has five independent variables and one dependent variable. Earnings per share, quick ratio, return on assets, return on equity, and net profit margin is used as independent variables while stock returns is used as dependent variable. Panel regression analysis method is used for the data analysis. Results shows that net profit margin, return on assets has got significant positive impact on stock returns while earnings per share has got significant negative impact on stock returns. When earnings per share will increase, than all those investors who wants short term gain and conscious for dividend sell their stock in to the market due to which in near future the stock returns of the company will be decrease due to excess supply of stocks, while return on equity and quick ratio shows insignificant impact on stock returns.
This study was conducted from November 2014 - May 2015 to determine the antimicrobial resistance pattern of Staphylococcus species in poultry in Central and Southern Ethiopia. 205 staphylococcal species isolated from poultry were evaluated using disk diffusion method for their antimicrobial susceptibility to 10 different antimicrobial drugs. Staphylococcus were found to be highly susceptible to Ciprofloxacin (85.4%) followed by Sulfamethoxazole- Trimethoprim (68.8%). However these isolates were highly resistant to Penicillin G (94.1%) and Tetracycline (79%) followed by Amoxicillin (60.5%). From all Staphylococci isolates tested for drug susceptibility pattern, only 1 isolate (S. aureus) was susceptible to all tested drugs and 99.51% of isolates were resistant to at least one of the antibiotics tested. Coagulase negative Staphylococci were highly resistant to all tested drugs except Ciprofloxacin (0%) and S. aureus were highly resistant to Penicillin G (92.2%) and Tetracycline (74.5%). Staphylococcus species isolated in poultry in Central and Southern Ethiopia were all multidrug resistant.
Background: MBBS students are always under stress. Extremes of stress results in stress induced disorders and deteriorating performance. The present interventional study is conducted in III/I MBBS students to determine benefits of yoga on anxiety & stress. Such study among MBBS students of Terna Medical College was never done before. Objectives: 1.To find out number of students suffering from Anxiety 2.To find out number of students suffering from Stress3.To find out effect of Yoga on Anxiety & Stress. Methodology: Questionnaire DASS21 for anxiety, stress in form of a Pre-test was administered to the students. Out of 102,96 students responded. It was considered as a pre-test. Accordingly, students were divided into anxious and non-anxious groups.40% students came positive & were included in the study group. To the study group, intervention with 4 types of Pranayam namely, Bhastrika, Kapalbhati, Anulom- Vilom and Bhramari were given. Post- test was applied on the same group at the end of8weeks.Results were compared.
The Management of companies has lived, since the end of the Seventies, a noteworthy metamorphosis articulated mainly around the human capital that represents, henceforth, a predominant component in the strategic equation. Yet, the development of competences remains dependent on managerial ethics to provide to the company the keys to success. Within the framework of this research, we propose to highlight the bond involving ethics, decisional system of the management system and the development of competences (valorization, construction, unlearning) and to see in which measurements ethics makes it possible to develop competences. These theoretical results were the subject matter of an empirical validation which leads us to confirm that ethics reaches the development of competences.
