Characterization of indentation damage resistance of hybrid composite laminates using acoustic emission monitoring
This paper focuses on the experimental investigation of impact damage resistance in hybrid composite laminates. In this case, the low velocity impact behaviour of quasi-isotropic glass/epoxy, glass/basalt/epoxy (G/B/G, B/G/B) and glass/carbon/epoxy (G/C/G, C/G/C) composite laminates was simulated by carrying out quasi-static indentation (QSI) tests with online acoustic emission (AE) monitoring. The dent depth, back surface crack size and load-deflection behaviors were examined and there is no distinct differences could be seen between low velocity impact tests and quasi-static indentation tests. The QSI tests were performed on specimens with rectangular section, of size 150 mm x 100 mm, which were loaded at the centre by a hemispherical steel indenter with 12.7 mm diameter. The indentation response was evaluated by measuring peak force, absorbed energy and linear stiffness. The residual strength of the laminates following indentation was measured by testing them under compression load in a 100 kN universal testing machine, once again with AE monitoring. AE parameters, such as amplitude, rise time, cumulative counts and cumulative energy were considered for monitoring damage progression during quasi-static indentation loading. Also other parameters linked to AE monitoring, such as the rise angle (RA) and Felicity ratio (FR) were measured for evaluating the damage resistance in each cycle of indentation. In addition, sentry function was also computed based on the combination of mechanical strain energy accumulated in the materials and of the acoustic energy propagates by fracture events made it possible to evaluate the amount of induced damage. These results showed that the combination of glass and carbon fibres in glass/carbon/epoxy (C/G/C) laminates improved their interlaminar shear strength at a level well above the other configurations tested

Modulations in the diffracted intensity in chiral smectic-C liquid crystals
Recently [K. A. Suresh, Yuvaraj Sah, P. B. Sunil Kumar, and G. S. Ranganath, Phys. Rev. Lett. 72, 2863 (1994)] the intensity and polarization features associated with the optical diffraction in chiral smectic-C liquid crystal were studied in the phase grating mode. In the computations it was found that the diffracted intensity, as a function of sample thickness, has modulations of different length scales. In this paper, using a perturbative approach, we show that these modulations are a consequence of a coupling between different orders of scattering
Bibliographics for the 983 eprints in the live archives of E-LIS : trends and status report up to 7th July 2004, based on author-self-archiving metadata
The priority for ideas and philosophy related to "Network Theory" have been traced back and documented by Braun(2004),and credit goes to Karinthy(1929).The IT has empowered to realise it, as the most practical phenomena and it is no more a humour. The OAI (Open Archives Initiatives)and ACIS (Academic Contributor Information System)are progressive in the direction ,which may lead to realise the "Collective Genius" at global level. Focus of present study is on Author-Self-Archiving (A-S-A)Metadata of the 983 Eprints in the Live Archives of the E-LIS (EPrints of Library and Information Science),which were approved till 7th July 2004.The A-S-A Metadata was used for librametric analysis. Self-explanatory bibliographics are illustrated.The highlights include: Conference papers (34%); highest approval, June 2004 (28%); published archives (76%);not refereed (52%); not in public domain (60%); highest self-archiving-author (De Robbio, Antonella).The Nos. of EPrints having single JITA domain specifications were: Theoretical and general aspects of libraries and information(27); Information use and sociology of information(80);Users,literacy and reading(13);Libraries as physical collections(30);Publishing and legal issues(57);Management(13);Industry, profession and education(36);Information sources, supports, channels(113) ; Information treatment for information services, Information functions and techniques (101); Technical services libraries, archives and museums(25); Housing technologies(1); Information technology and library technology(92); and Inter-domainery (395) i.e. having specifications of two or more than two JITA classes
Exogenous Growth Regulators and Water Stress Enhance Long-Term Storage Quality Characteristics of Onion
Exogenous growth regulators (GRs) play a crucial role in alleviating water stress and sustaining crop yields in water-stressed areas. However, their effects on onions post-harvest quality, particularly post-monsoon onion—often preferred for long-term storage—were never studied. Therefore, this led us to investigate the interaction between water stress and GRs on the physiochemical and functional quality attributes of onions during long-term storage (9 months, at 25 ± 1 °C and 65 ± 5% RH). Onion crop was raised under four water stress levels i.e., 1.00–0.85, 0.84–0.70, 0.69–0.40, and 0.39–0.10 IW: CPE, designated as no, low, medium, and severe water stress, respectively, using a line source sprinkler system (LSS). GR treatments include potassium nitrate (PN, 15 g L−1), sodium benzoate (SB, 100 mg L−1), thio-urea (TU, 450 ppm), and gibberellic acid (GA, 25 ppm). Results reveal that the significant temporal changes in the dry matter, rehydration ratio, total soluble sugar (TSS), protein, and total phenolics content (TP) of the onion bulbs during storage, indicate the cumulative impact of the treatments on overall physicochemical status. Water stress increased onion biochemical attributes, especially pyruvic acid content, superoxide dismutase (SOD), and peroxidase (POD) activity. Storage quality of onions progressively decreased with the increase in storage period. Stressed onions, especially those produced under severe water stress condition, showed high weight losses, presenting poor keeping quality. However, application of GRs, especially SB, TU, and PN, reduced bulb weight losses together with maintaining slightly better bulb physicochemical properties, thereby improving the overall storage quality, particularly with a moderate level of water stress (0.69–0.40 IW:CPE). The exogenous application of GRs with moderate water stress is suggested as a key strategy in improving the keeping quality of onion bulbs and ensuring its availability during the lean season
