An investigation has been conducted to determine whether or not novel nanocomposite electrolytes have the potential to improve the efficiency and longevity of fuel cell technology. In this investigation, nanocomposite electrolytes were manufactured by using a methodical methodology. The nanoparticles were included into polymer matrices in order to enhance the ion conductivity and mechanical strength of the electrolytes developed. The composition of nanocomposite electrolytes was improved by altering the amount of nanoparticles and polymers that were present. When compared to traditional electrolytes, the introduction of nanoparticles resulted in considerable improvements in the characteristics of the material. These enhancements included a 15% increase in ion conductivity and a 10% increase in mechanical strength. Fuel cell devices that make use of nanocomposite electrolytes have showed improved performance, with a 10% increase in power density and a 15% gain in efficiency when compared to fuel cell devices that make use of traditional electrolytes. In addition, the environmental impact assessment found that the use of nanocomposite electrolytes resulted in a two percent drop in the amount of energy used, a fifteen percent reduction in the amount of waste generated, and a twenty-five percent reduction in the amount of carbon dioxide emissions. As a result of these discoveries, the potential ofnanocomposite electrolytes to enhance the sustainability and efficiency of fuel cell technology has been brought to light. This opens the door for the creation of next-generation fuel cells that have increased performance and decreased their effect on the environment.

Aim of current study is to utilize different sustainable artificial intelligence (AI) tools to check the influence of test factors on erosion wear. Bottom ash is taken as erodent at different solid concentration while brass is considered as base material. The parameters involved are rotational speed (N), solid concentration (CW), and testing time duration (T). According to experimental results and analysis based on different AI tools , it is abundantly found that erosion wear have a significant dependency on parameters such as N, CW, T and the order of maximum erosion was found as N > CW >T. The rate of rotation speed (N) has been identified as the factor that has the greatest impact on the degree to which erosion wear occur. 3D analysis has been conducted for the maximum and minimum erosion wear condition. In order to verify the accuracy, four distinct methods are utilized; nonetheless, the accuracy of the regression analysis has been found more promising when compared to that of the Ridge, lasso and neural network methodologies.

To examine the biomedical signals from the human body is of a challenging task. Signal acquisition of the biosignal needs proper design methodology with the estimation of consequences further. In this paper we discuss about the signal acquisition of EoG using the surface electrodes and to amplify the weak biopotential signal an amplifier is proposed with the additive noise reduction filter. The biopotential instrumentation amplifier is designed using standard operational amplifier that posses the high voltage swing. However the major artifacts present in the EoG signal acquisition is because of power line interference can be eliminated by notch filter.

INTRODUCTION: Novel corona virus infection has become a public health crisis leading the world to a standstill including dentistry. However, since the dental services cannot be stopped for a long period it is important that dentist but be fully prepared before resuming their services. Therefore, the current study was carried out for evaluating knowledge, attitude and practices (KAP) along with perceived barriers to practice dentistry during pandemic. METHODS: this cross-sectional study was conducted through an online survey questionnaire on dentists of India. Dentists were enquired for demographics, KAP and perceived barriers regarding practicing dentistry during pandemic. The knowledge was assessed based on 16 items in true or false or multiple choice questions format getting score of 1 or 0. The attitude and practices by 8 items each, on 5-point likert scale and 4 items perceived barriers were enquired. The differences between the median scores among demographic variables was determined by applying student´s t-test and keeping level of significance at below 0.05. RESULTS: out of 500 dentists who were approached through email, a total of 296 dentists returned the questionnaire (response rate, 59.2%) among which 22 questionnaires were incomplete and thus excluded making 274 as final study participants. Overall poor median scores of knowledge and practices were obtained whereas for attitude total median score was good. Median practice scores were significantly higher among female respondents (20(6)). Median knowledge and practice scores were significantly better in study participants with age 40 years (6(4) and 19(5), respectively). CONCLUSION: with the recent claims of authorities that virus is going to stay in world for quite some time it is essential that dentists must be fully prepared before resuming their services and must attain proper awareness to limit the disease spread.
