Existential Maturity of Savitri in the Dark Room by R. K. Narayan
No full textThis article is mainly focused on the protagonist Savitri of the novel: The Dark Room by R.K. Narayan and how she is alienated from herself, from society and from the world and about her quest for marital identity. Savitri also goes through the crisis of discontent to the quest for happiness. Savitri of the ancient legend is a paragon of virtue and courage who confronts even Death to save her husband is finally victorious. Ironically, unlike the legendary Savitri, Narayan’s Savitri chooses to leave home, husband and children once she comes to know of her husband’s infidelity. Contrary to the legend, Savitri is just an ordinary, amiable, housewife. She abandons her gambler and drunkard husband and her family. But her independence proves detrimental to Savitri’s familial peace. Narayan skillfully portrays her every action and in his ironic subtle fashion puts across the artificiality behind it.

Sensitivity analysis of reliability constrained, eco optimal solar, wind, hydrogen storage based islanded power system
No full textAbstract The global energy expansion strategy has incorporated islanded renewable energy-based power generation systems to electrify remote communities. The development of these renewable energy systems (RES) decreases grid dependency and operational costs. Solar photovoltaic power stations (SPPS) and wind-driven power stations (WDPS) are commonly employed technologies in isolated power systems. However, their intermittent nature poses dependability obstacles. Therefore, the incorporation of storage technology is essential to enhance reliability. This paper presents a sensitivity analysis to determine the optimal, reliable, and cost-effective sizing of a SPPS, WDPS, and hydrogen storage systems (HSS) based power system for case study of Jaisalmer, India. The ideal dimensions of each component are determined in two different cases, each having a unique objective function. The optimal sizing is attained through a metaheuristic optimization method called Butterfly-PSO. Reliability assessment is carried out using Monte Carlo Simulation (MCS) and two key reliability indices, namely ENS and LOLE are taken under analysis. Sensitivity analyses are performed to examine the effects of incorporating or excluding RES and storage elements on system reliability and cost-efficiency. The findings presents that increasing SPPS capacity by one unit changes around LOLE by 13%, ENS by 14%, and LCOE/TLCC by 1%. Varying WDPS capacity changes LOLE by 16%, ENS by 19%, TLCC by 3.3%, and LCOE by 1.4%. Adjusting HSS tank size by one unit affects LOLE by 2%, ENS by 2.6%, and TLCC/LCOE by 0.02%. Case 1 (Min TLCC) offers a more reliable and cost-effective solution than Case 2
Forecasting Fiji's exports and imports, 2003-2020
No full textPurpose – The purpose of this paper is to forecast Fiji's exports and imports for the period 2003-2020. Design/methodology/approach – To achieve the goal of this paper, the autoregressive moving average with explanatory variables (ARMAX) model was applied. To this end, the paper drew on the published export demand model and the import demand model of Narayan and Narayan for Fiji. Findings – The paper's main findings are: Fiji's imports will outperform exports over the 2003-2020 period; and current account deficits will escalate to be around F$934.4 million on average over the 2003-2020 period. Originality/value – Exports and imports are crucial for macroeconomic policymaking. It measures the degree of openness of a country and it signals the trade balance and current account balances. This has implications for inflation and exchange rate. By forecasting Fiji's exports and imports, the paper provides policy makers with a set of information that will be useful for devising macroeconomic policies. <br
