The current work is an experimental study, with the primary goal of investigating and exploring ways to improve thermal contact conductance through a detailed examination and analysis of metallic contacts and discovering opportunities for enhancement, increased efficiency, and thus heat dissipation using thermal interface materials. The steady-state experiments have been carried out on a simple and calibrated experimental set-up. A comprehensive investigation was conducted to assess the thermal performance of Cu-Al contacts for the selected range of contact pressures and temperatures to suit the electronic industry's distinctive characteristics and technical requirements. As a thermal interface material, graphene paste has been tested under various combinations of interface pressure and heating circumstances against the bare metallic contacts. Error analysis has also been performed for the current experimental investigation. It has been demonstrated that using graphene paste as a thermal interface material thermal contact conductance is improved, significantly enhancing heat dissipation. The results of thermal contact conductance for graphene paste have been compared with the same for silicon grease from literature. The present results thus demonstrate the application and suitability of the selected thermal interface material in the specified range of heating and contact pressure conditions in the context of particularly thermal management applications.

In this paper, we provide a generating function for mix type Apostol-Genocchi polynomials of order η associated with Bell polynomials. We also derive certain important identities of Apostol Genocchi polynomials of order η based on Bell polynomials, such as the correlation formula, the implicit summation formula, the derivative formula, some correlation with Stirling numbers and their special instances. Moreover, we discover some symmetric identities and their related known results. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Background: The changes happening in the physical therapy education and the profession should be reached and demand to be seen by the other medical professionals to benefit the health care process. At the same time, if attempts are to be prepared to elevate the degree of awareness of physical therapy, it is necessary to evaluate the current attitude and knowledge of the medical interns. So the aim of this study was to find out the current level of awareness and knowledge about physical therapy among the M.B.B.S. medical interns. Methods: An institution based cross sectional study, carried out purely based on the questionnaire method which consist of sets of questions. Prior to the data collection the researcher explained about the study to the subject and an informed consent was obtained from them. The researcher gave the questionnaire form to the subject and was required to fill the frame. The data collected was analysed by using frequency and percentage in IBM SPSS statistics V 19. Results: Only 45% of medical interns had awareness and 42% had knowledge about physical therapy. Conclusion: The results of the study provide information regarding the lack of awareness and knowledge among medical interns about physical therapy. Hence there is a need of educating the future medical professionals about the physical therapy, thereby reaching a better patient care.
