The synthetic fibres are having high stiffness and strength still high manufacturing cost with environmental issues limited the use of synthetic fibres. This encourages towards thinking of intense research of natural fibres having similar property as synthetic fibres. To obtain the better mechanical and thermal property, hybridization of fibres is mostly preferred and that leads to minimize the use of synthetic fibres. As natural fibres are strong and having more ductile property, though moisture absorption is the primary limitation. So fibres is subjected to various treatments such as physical, thermal, chemical and laser treatments etc., to improve the surface characteristics with better interfacial bonding. Nano particle addition also helps in improving the performance of composites and develops cross linking in bonding of matrix and fibre. This research work mostly focuses on hybridization of short mercerized sisal and glass fibre filled with nano silica and marble dust particles, by injection moulding process with polypropylene matrix. It is noticed that among the addition of different fillers, marble dust added composite gave the better result than SiO2 added composite. Incorporation of SiO2 particles as filler material improves the flexural strength and thermal property of the composite.
Nepheline syenite plutons emplaced within the Terrane Boundary Shear Zone of the Eastern Ghats Mobile Belt west of Khariar in northwestern Orissa are marked by a well-developed magmatic fabric including magmatic foliation, mineral lineations, folds and S-C fabrics. The minerals in the plutons, namely microcline, orthoclase, albite, nepheline, hornblende, biotite and aegirine show, by and large, well-developed crystal faces and lack undulose extinction and dynamic recrystallization, suggesting a magmatic origin. The magmatic fabric of the plutons is concordant with a solid-state strain fabric of the surrounding mylonites that developed due to noncoaxial strain along the Terrane Boundary Shear Zone during thrusting of the Eastern Ghats Mobile Belt over the Bastar Craton. However, a small fraction of the minerals, more commonly from the periphery of the plutons, is overprinted by a solid state strain fabric similar to that of the host rock. This fabric is manifested by discrete shear fractures, along which the feldspars are deformed into ribbons, have undergone dynamic recrystallization and show undulose extinction and myrmekitic growth. The shear fractures and the magmatic foliations are mutually parallel to the C-fabric of the host mylonites. Coexistence of concordant solid state strain fabric and magmatic fabric has been interpreted as a transitional feature from magmatic state to subsolidus deformation of the plutons, while the nepheline syenite magma was solidifying from a crystal-melt mush state under a noncoaxial strain. This suggests the emplacement of the plutons synkinematic to thrusting along the Terrane Boundary Shear Zone. The isotopic data by earlier workers suggest emplacement of nepheline syenite at 1500 + 3/− 4 Ma, lending support for thrusting of the mobile belt over the craton around that time.
Studies reveal that haematological parameters vary with ageing process. Thus, the present study was carried out to examine the variation in white blood cell count, red blood cell count, haematocrit percentage, haemoglobin percentage in Tribal Menopausal women of Mayurbhanj, a tribal dominated district of Eastern India. A total of one hundred and eight tribal women participated in the study. They were divided into two groups. A test group of sixty-two post-Menopausal women (46 - 65 years) and a control group of women ageing between 20-35 years. Mean and standard errors along with T-test for comparison between control and test groups were carried out with Excel 2016. Results show that there is a signicant difference in white blood cell count, haematocrit percentage, haemoglobin percentage at p≤0.05. There also exists a signicant difference in the neutrophil and basophil count. The results suggest that anaemic condition is not prevalent in menopausal women. However, rise of neutrophil and basophil count is indicative of having underlying infections.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
