    Quantitative Study of Quality Factors using Relative Importance Index Method in Construction Projects

    No full text
    Quality has now become a keystone feature in the construction of any project and has acquired worldwide attention. The aim of this paper is not only to identify the factors influencing the quality of the construction works but also to work for the better management of the quality. In a pursuit for a continuous quality improvement, a quantitative study approach has been adopted thereby knowing the relative importance of various factors critical to the quality of construction. During the preliminary stage, a questionnaire was developed with a total of 37 quality factors and categorized into five major groups. The data obtained were analyzed by the Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS). The effect of various factors was discussed and various recommendations were put forth. Case studies on two buildings viz. multi-level car parking and girl’s hostel of GCET in Jammu region of Jammu &Kashmir have been undertaken in which data obtained is statistically measured and analyzed.© 2019 JETIR May 2019, Volume 6, Issue 5 www.jetir.org (ISSN-2349-5162

    We report here the corrected values for the step energies and the step interactions calculated in our paper for a large set of different step configurations. We have found that one parameter, i.e., the smearing parameter governing the band occupation around the Fermi level, was not converged enough to predict the step properties with sufficient accuracy. Since the surfaces are metallic a smearing function had to be used for the state occupation around the Fermi level. We used the smearing function proposed by Marzari and Vanderbilt. We found that the parameter entering this expression is a particularly sensitive one. The previous paper used a commonly chosen value of 0.02 Ry. However, we found that a much smaller value for this parameter was necessary to obtain well converged values for the surface energies. The convergence of the smearing parameter has been carefully checked. Figure presented

    A new perspective on in vitro assessment method for evaluating quantum dot toxicity by using microfluidics technology

    In this study, we demonstrate a new perspective on in vitro assessment method for evaluating quantum dot (QD) toxicity by using microfluidics technology. A new biomimetic approach, based on the flow exposure condition, was applied in order to characterize the cytotoxic potential of QD. In addition, the outcomes obtained from the flow exposure condition were compared to those of the static exposure condition. An in vitro cell array system was established that used an integrated multicompartmented microfluidic device to develop a sensitive flow exposure condition. QDs modified with cetyltrimethyl ammonium bromide/trioctylphosphine oxide were used for the cytotoxicity assessment. The results suggested noticeable differences in the number of detached and deformed cells and the viability percentages between two different exposure conditions. The intracellular production of reactive oxygen species and release of cadmium were found to be the possible causes of QD-induced cytotoxicity, irrespective of the types of exposure condition. In contrast to the static exposure, the flow exposure apparently avoided the gravitational settling of particles and probably assisted in the homogeneous distribution of nanoparticles in the culture medium during exposure time. Moreover, the flow exposure condition resembled in vivo physiological conditions very closely, and thus, the flow exposure condition can offer potential advantages for nanotoxicity research.
