Numerical investigation of heat transfer and fluid flow characteristics of an internally ribbed tube / Kailash Mohapatra and Dipti Prasad Mishra
No full textNumerical investigation have been performed by solving the conservation equations of mass, momentum, energy with two equation based k-e model to determine the wall temperature, outlet temperature and Nusselt number of an internally ribbed tube. It has been found from the numerical investigation that the heat transfer and pressure drop is increased by increasing the rib height and rib number. It was also found that there exists an optimum angle of inclination for maximum heat transfer and minimum pressure drop. The heat transfer is found to be highest in triangular rib compare to other shape
Mount Kailash and Its Legends
No full textThere are many sacred mountains in Tibet, among them the most important being Mount Kailash. Since primeval days to the present, Tibetans have regarded Kailash as an object of worship, believing that it is the place where various gods reside. Aṅgaja, one of the Sixteen Arhats, dwells with a retinue of 1,300 arhats there, and Jetsun Milarepa lived and held his contest of miracles with the Bönpo Naro Bönchung on the mountain. Those beliefs in the mountain as a sacred place still live on and are practiced not only in Tibetan Buddhism, but also in other traditional religions such as Bön, which is based on animism and ancestor worship.
Furthermore, Kailash has been often identified as the Snow Mountain mentioned in some Indian Buddhist texts, including the Abhidharmakośakārikā (Verses on the Treasury of Abhidharma), The Avataṃsaka Sūtra (Flower Garland Sutra), and so forth. Some Tibetan Buddhist monks, however, have criticized this view, saying that the identification has no objective evidence, and that most of the stories about Kailash are only legends because they lack logical or rational grounds. In this paper, the author shall attempt to examine the relationship between those two mountains as well as the position of Mount Kailash in Tibetan Buddhism, by referring to some Tibetan texts authored by Sakya Paṇḍita Kunga Gyeltsen (1182-1251), Chödrak Yéshé (1453-1524), and Chökyi Lodrö (1801-59). Additionally, the significance of pilgrimage to Mount Kailash in Tibetan religious life will be also investigated, through appreciating the poetry of Shabkar Tsokdruk Rangdrol (1781-1851), who spent much of his life in mountain retreats.departmental bulletin pape

The Promise of Neurolaw in Global Justice: An Interview with Dr. Pragya Mishra
No full textIn an ongoing series of interviews, Challenges Advisory Board member and Nova Institute for Health Fellow Alan C. Logan meets with thought leaders, scientists, scholars, healthcare professionals, artisans, and visionaries concerned about health at the scale of individuals, communities, and the planet. Here, Dr. Pragya Mishra responds to a set of questions posed by Challenges. Dr. Mishra, a legal academician and one of the few global scholars with a PhD specifically in neurolaw, is at the forefront of research examining the intersection of law and brain sciences. As a concept and developing field, the promise of neurolaw is that it will lead to a more equitable and less punitive justice system, one based on objective science rather than prescientific assumptions of blameworthiness and willpower. Here, Dr. Mishra reflects on the promises and pitfalls of neurolaw, the growing challenges to the free will assumptions held by the courts, and her work in a field that epitomizes a transdisciplinary effort. She discusses the place of contemplative practices within neurolaw, with special emphasis on the hope of rehabilitation. Dr. Mishra describes neurolaw through a holistic lens, one that embraces future possibilities and the shaping of evidence-based policy changes. While planetary health embraces justice as a broad term, it has paid little attention to the criminal justice system. Discussions of neurolaw are important to the ethical frameworks of planetary health. Neurolaw, as Dr. Mishra explains, is at the heart of the many interconnected challenges of our time
