Proposals for International Support to an Intercountry Cooperative Research Programme on the Water Buffalo
No full textReport of P. Mahadevan, a consultant commissioned by TAC to prepare proposals for an international water buffalo program. Based on an analysis of the world distribution of water buffalo and their economic importance, and an assessment of current national research on buffalo nutrition, reproduction, breeding, health problems and production systems, the author identifies priority areas for research. Consideration of a number of institutional and organizational alternatives leads to the recommendation for an international network of cooperating national institutions for buffalo research. Agenda document presented at the seventeenth meeting of TAC, September 1977

association of the pearl fish Fierasfer homei (Richardson) with the wing mussel Pteria
sp., * * found in the Gulf of Mannar off Tuticorin. A re -examination of the pearl
fish showed that the position of the vent is at the base of a line just behind pectoral
origin and the origin of the dorsal is in a line above the middle of pectoral (Plate,
1, Fig. C). Further, other distinguishing characters of this fish described elsewhere
in this account justified the earlier doubts (Mahadevan op. cit.) of the likelihood
of its coming under Carapus (syn : Fierasfer) margaritiferae (Rendahl), a brief
account of which is given by de Beaufort (1951) based on specimens collected from
Pulu Punga, Pulu Missa, coast of Flores and Cape Jaubert N. W. Australia, mostly
in association with the wing mussel or sometimes with a holothurian. Smith (1955),
while reviewing the family Carapidae has mentioned the occurrence of C margaritiferae
in South African waters also where three specimens, 75 -93 mm. in length, were
' taken from inside clams at Durban.' The data on two specimens of 63.5 and 85.0
mm. examined by the present author indicate differences in some of the characteristics
as compared with the South African form described by Smith. In order to facilitate
comparison of the Indian form with others occurring elsewhere a detailed
description of the material in hand is given below.Not Availabl

A sliver stream pass the waters offshore
gilt with sunbeam all over
on whose enamelled waters I dived
and saw how prettily the denizens moved and lived
and how sweetly they moved and bred still
Oh! my friend Mannar gulf
still I adore you

Flow-driven branching in a frangible porous medium

Physical Review Letters, 125(15), (2020): 158002, doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.125.158002.Channel formation and branching is widely seen in physical systems where movement of fluid through a porous structure causes the spatiotemporal evolution of the medium. We provide a simple theoretical framework that embodies this feedback mechanism in a multiphase model for flow through a frangible porous medium with a dynamic permeability. Numerical simulations of the model show the emergence of branched networks whose topology is determined by the geometry of external flow forcing. This allows us to delineate the conditions under which splitting and/or coalescing branched network formation is favored, with potential implications for both understanding and controlling branching in soft frangible media.N.

Augmenting the double pipe heat exchanger efficiency using varied molar Ag ornamented graphene oxide (GO) nanoparticles aqueous hybrid nanofluids
No full textThe optimization of heat transfer in heat exchanging equipment is paramount for
the efficient management of energy resources in both industrial and residential
settings. In pursuit of this goal, this empirical study embarked on enhancing the
heat transfer performance of a double pipe heat exchanger (DPHX) by
introducing silver (Ag)-graphene oxide (GO) hybrid nanofluids into the
annulus of the heat exchanger. To achieve this, three distinct molar
concentrations of Ag ornamented GO hybrid nanoparticles were synthesized
by blending GO nanoparticles with silver nitrate at molarities of 0.03 M, 0.06 M,
and 0.09 M. These Ag-GO hybrid nanoparticles were then dispersed in the base
fluid, resulting in the formation of three distinct hybrid nanofluids, each with a
consistent weight percentage of 0.05 wt%. Thorough characterization and
evaluation of thermophysical properties were performed on the resulting
hybrid nanomaterials and nanofluids, respectively. Remarkably, the most
significant enhancement in heat transfer coefficient, Nusselt number, and
thermal performance index (62.9%, 33.55%, and 1.29, respectively) was
observed with the 0.09 M Ag-GO hybrid nanofluid, operating at a Reynolds
number of 1,451 and a flow rate of 47 g/s. These findings highlight the substantial
improvement in thermophysical properties of the base fluid and the
intensification of heat transfer in the DPHX with increasing Ag molarity over
GO. In summary, this study emphasizes the vital importance of optimizing the
molarity of the material, which also plays a significant role in nanoparticle
synthesis to achieve the optimal amplification of heat transfer
