Abstract: In this paperimproved spider algorithm (ISA) is projected to solve the optimal reactive power dispatch (ORPD) Problem. Stimulated by the societal spiders, we suggest a new Improved Spider Algorithm (ISA) to solve ORPD problem. The structure is chiefly based on the foraging approach of social spiders, which make use of the vibrations spread over the spider web to decide the position of preys. The simulation results demonstrate high-quality performance of ISA in solving an optimal reactive power dispatch problem. The projected algorithm has been tested on IEEE 30 bus system and compared to other specified algorithms. Results show that ISA is more efficient than other algorithms to reduce the real power loss and to enhance the voltage profile index.
Keywords: spider algorithm, swarm intelligence, evolutionary computation, optimal reactive power, Transmission loss.

Abstract: new generation fuzzy logic controllers are based on the integration of conventional and fuzzy controllers. India being the fastest growing market for paper globally presents an exciting industry scenario. The main requirement concerns measured and controlled variable for paper including basis weight and moisture. This research is an effort to achieve better performance with nonlinear processes in servo applications. Three different structures on fuzzy-p, fuzzy-pd and fuzzy-pd+i are studied for variable inputusing simulink and fuzzy logic toolbox. Analysis of four scaling gainsge, gce, gie and gu is done to obtain most appropriate output.
Keywords:fuzzy controllers, fuzzy-p, fuzzy-pd, fuzzy-pd+i, basis weight, simulink.

STUDY ON IMPACTS OF ORGANIC FOOD PRODUCTION TO THE ENVIORNMENT: A CASE OF KAZI & KAZI TEA ESTATE LIMITED, PANCHAGARH, BANGLADESH
Download Complete Paper
Abstract:Study on environmental impact of organic food production to the environment was conducted over the period of four months concentrating exclusively in the Kazi & Kazi Tea Estate Limited (KKTE) in Panchagarh district. The main objective of this study was to make an assessment on environmental impact of organic food production. In order to get qualitative information, data were collected through FGDs and KIIs. Organic food is free of harmful chemicals, tastier and healthier than conventional foods, and can be stored more days than chemical foods. Every one articulated the negative impacts of conventional foods. The role of organic production to the environment is inevitable with positive sign. KKTE is playing great role in raising awareness on environment among the workers and community people through training and supporting hardware. Respondents were mentioned that KKTE is playing great role in environmental conservation by planting trees, organic farming and using renewable energy. Such organic production is offering diverse products in the local to national and international market including vegetables, tea, herbal tea, ghee, honey and sweets. Organic production is releasing less carbon by using nature friendly inputs and renewable energy and promoting for communal uses including solar energy and bio-gas plant. Chemical contaminations from others conventional farming are the main problem for organics. Lack of awareness and training is the main hindrance in popularizing the organic foods. Appropriate policy support, incentives, organic food fair may create greater awareness among the mass people. It is recommended that if the perceived problem could be solved by setting up of more tea processing industries, competitive markets at the grass roots for organic foods, supply of natural gas and resolving problems could accelerate the production of organic food production, organic regulations, policy support, training and advocacy would be the pathway for sustainable development.
Keywords:Bio-pesticides; bio-fertilizer; organic production; organic farming; renewable energy.

Abstract:Transport and Disposal of Municipal solid waste is one of the major environmental problems of Srinagar city. Improper transport and disposal of municipal solid waste (MSW) causes hazards to inhabitants. The amount of solid waste generated in the world is steadily increasing and every government in this world is currently focusing on methods to approach the challenge. This paper is to present a case study on municipal solid waste transport and disposal in the city of Srinagar in Jammu and Kashmir in India and its practice as lessons learnt. Srinagar has a land area of approximately 279 Sq. Kms with a population of 12.03 lacs. Over the past two decades, MSW generation in Srinagar has increased tremendously from 180 tons in 1981 to 530 tons in 2011. This is largely as a result of rapid population growth and economic development in the country. The daily per capita generation of municipal solid waste in India ranges from about 100 g in small towns to 500 gm in large towns and in Srinagar it is 271 gm. Currently 65-70% of municipal solid waste generated in Srinagar city is collected by door to door collection method and street bin systems and is transported for dumping to open landfill site which is at Syedpora Achan about 6 km from center of Srinagar city and the remaining 30-35% of waste is dumped illegally into depressions, river embankments, unattended open spaces or is locally burnt both by individuals or Safia Karamcharis creating nuisance for public as well as acting as breeding centers of some diseases.In order to provide proper transport and disposal of municipal solid waste in Srinagar, this study recommends and suggests that clear goals and timeframes need to be established, duties and responsibilities of local government, NGOs and Srinagar Municipal Authority and funding needs to be allocated in order to produce an effective waste management framework in the City.

Abstract:The Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries are extremely common among sports activities that involve excessive development of torsional and transitional forces within the knee joint. These types of ligament injuries often result in premature end to careers in sports. The treatment protocol post injury to the anterior cruciate ligament could be either operative or conservative. The main aim behind both the treatment protocol is to reach the best functional level for the patient and reducing the likelihood of new injuries or degenerative changes in the knee joint. The knowledge of healing processes and biomechanics for the knee joint post injury and reconstruction, together with physiological aspects on training effects is crucial for the formation of the rehabilitation protocol. The patients are allowed to return to light sports activities such as running 2–3 months post-surgery and to contact sports, which include cutting and jumping, post 6 months. In many cases, the decision is empirically based upon the rehabilitation protocol are adjusted to the time selected for returning to sports. This review study possesses criteria that should be fulfilled in order to allow the patient to return to sports. Surgery composed with rehabilitative protocol and sport specific exercises should result in development of functional stability of the knee joint. In addition to that adequate muscle strength and performance should be used as a critical criterion. Associative factors for instance social and psychological hindrances should also be accounted for, both during the rehabilitation and at the evaluation of the treatment.
