Antagonism of Two Trichoderma Species against Alternaria alternata on Capsicum frutescens
No full textAbstractBiological management of plant disease is a much popular method of disease control now a days. Being ecofriendly safe and effective disease control agents, biocontrol agents are being used widely by farmers in combating disease and pests. The present investigation deals with comparative antagonistic behavior of two different species of Trichoderma viz. Trichoderma harzianum and Trichoderma viride against Alternaria alternata, a common and destructive pathogen of Capsicum frutescens. To find out the comparative antagonistic properties of both the species of Trichodema against Alternaria alternata, culture plate technique was used and the experiment was allowed to run for 10 days. Results indicated that Trichoderma harzianum which reduced the growth of Altrnaria alternata by 67.07% is more effective in controlling the growth of test pathogen. Trichoderma viride, causing a reduction of 66.67% was also found to be a suitable biocontrol agent. Key words: Capsicum frutescens, Trichoderma, Biocontrol, Alternaria alternate, Antagonism  Department of Botany, S.

Pollution Status of River Ramganga: Physico-chemical Characteristics at Bareilly
No full textABSTRACT: The investigation is an effort to examine the impact of effluents discharged through industrial wastes and sewage into Ramganga and to observe the change in the quality of water for the period of different seasons of the year. Some physico-chemical parameters like temperature, pH, DO, Free CO2, TDS and TSS were studied and find the Site B was much polluted due to merging of a polluted tributary Nakatia. There DO was 3.07 mg/l and Free CO2was 26.69 mg/l. Key words: Ramganga river, water quality, Physico-Chemical parameters  1Department of Zoology, S.S.(P.G.)College, Shahjahanpur,U.P.; 2Department of Botany, S.S.(P.G.)College, Shahjahanpur,U.P Please Cite This Article As: Ramesh Channdra, kanchan kashyap, and Adarsh Pandey. 2010.

GPU-accelerated depth map generation for X-ray simulations of complex CAD geometries
No full textInteractive x-ray simulations of complex computer-aided design (CAD) models can provide valuable insights for better interpretation of the defect signatures such as porosity from x-ray CT images. Generating the depth map along a particular direction for the given CAD geometry is the most compute-intensive step in x-ray simulations. We have developed a GPU-accelerated method for real-time generation of depth maps of complex CAD geometries. We preprocess complex components designed using commercial CAD systems using a custom CAD module and convert them into a fine user-defined surface tessellation. Our CAD module can be used by different simulators as well as handle complex geometries, including those that arise from complex castings and composite structures. We then make use of a parallel algorithm that runs on a graphics processing unit (GPU) to convert the finely-tessellated CAD model to a voxelized representation. The voxelized representation can enable heterogeneous modeling of the volume enclosed by the CAD model by assigning heterogeneous material properties in specific regions. The depth maps are generated from this voxelized representation with the help of a GPU-accelerated ray-casting algorithm. The GPU-accelerated ray-casting method enables interactive (> 60 frames-per-second) generation of the depth maps of complex CAD geometries. This enables arbitrarily rotation and slicing of the CAD model, leading to better interpretation of the x-ray images by the user. In addition, the depth maps can be used to aid directly in CT reconstruction algorithms.This proceeding may be downloaded for personal use only.

Incorporation of composite defects from ultrasonic NDE into CAD and FE models
No full textFiber-reinforced composites are widely used in aerospace industry due to their combined properties of high strength and low weight. However, owing to their complex structure, it is difficult to assess the impact of manufacturing defects and service damage on their residual life. While, ultrasonic testing (UT) is the preferred NDE method to identify the presence of defects in composites, there are no reasonable ways to model the damage and evaluate the structural integrity of composites. We have developed an automated framework to incorporate flaws and known composite damage automatically into a finite element analysis (FEA) model of composites, ultimately aiding in accessing the residual life of composites and make informed decisions regarding repairs. The framework can be used to generate a layer-by-layer 3D structural CAD model of the composite laminates replicating their manufacturing process. Outlines of structural defects, such as delaminations, are automatically detected from UT of the laminate and are incorporated into the CAD model between the appropriate layers. In addition, the framework allows for direct structural analysis of the resulting 3D CAD models with defects by automatically applying the appropriate boundary conditions. In this paper, we show a working proof-of-concept for the composite model builder with capabilities of incorporating delaminations between laminate layers and automatically preparing the CAD model for structural analysis using a FEA software.This proceeding may be downloaded for personal use only.

Studies on Fungal Diseases of Eggplant in Relation to Statistical Analysis and Making of a Disease Calendar
No full textBrinjal is consumed enormously in India. Bareilly City is sandwiched between two rivers and has tarai climate. Therefore it is prime location of marketing neighboring cities. Bareilly is situated at foothills of Himalaya where generally the climate is moderate, humid and cloudy. Different atmospheric factors viz. T.max., T.min., Relative humidity and Rainfall play important role in development of fungal diseases on Brinjal. Five Fungi were encountered during the cropping year on Brinjal viz. Fusasium solani, Helminthosporium spiciferum, Choanephora cucurbitarum, Curvularia lunata, Trichothecium roseum. The growth of these fungi was found luxurious especially from October to November, and Feb. to April. Fruit spoilage was maximum from August to January; the reason may be high humidity, high temperature, and less rainfall
Disease Calendar of some Parasitic Fungi on Capsicum frutescens in District Shahjahanpur
No full textIndia is the second largest producer of vegetables next only to china. The prime need of our nation is to improve the vegetables, as most of the population of INDIA is vegetarian. Shimla Chilli is one of the major crops, consumed in this country due to its cheaper rate. Several diseases pose a great threat to the cultivation of Capsicum frutescens. These diseases not only reduce the yield of fruits but also deteriorate the quality of fruits. Out of these diseases, fungal diseases are very much hazardous to Capsicum frutescens in this region. During investigation 6 spp. of fungi were recorded on Capsicum frutescens after the survey of different fields and markets in Shahjahanpur. These were viz. Alternaria alternata, Alternaria solani, Curvularia lunata, Choanephora cucurbitarum, Cladosporium oxysporum and Drechslera tetramera. Therefore in the present investigation a disease calendar was prepared to understand the epidemiology of parasitic fungal diseases in Shahjahanpur District. It was found during the study that last week of October to mid December was the best period for the luxuriant growth of parasitic fungi on Capsicum frutescens in District Shahjahanpur, due to low temperature, high humidity and less rainfall
