Abstract:

This article is about the historical memory of Alexander the Great in the Delhi Sultanate and how his figure was emblematic of a trans-regional Persianate culture. Amir Khusrau’s largely overlooked Persian epic Āyina’i sikandarī (The Mirror of Alexander) (1302) depicts Alexander the Great as an exemplary Persian emperor who reused material cultures from around the world to produce inventions such as his eponymous mirror and the astrolabe. Through Alexander, Khusrau envisions the Persian emperor as an agent of trans-cultural patronage, reuse and repurpose. Roughly 60 years after Khusrau’s death, the poet’s theory of Alexander’s Persianate material patronage was put into practice by the Delhi Sultan Firuz Shah Tughluq (r. 1351–88), who claimed to have discovered Alexander’s astrolabe and then used the instrument to adorn the Delhi-Topra pillar, the centrepiece of his new capital Firuzabad. Citations of Khusrau’s epic in a contemporary chronicle help us see how Khusrau’s imagination of ancient Persian Empire framed a practice of organising different styles of material culture into an imperial bricolage. The article concludes with some implications of this research for defining Persianate culture in general.

Abstract:

The numeral system developed in South Asian Subcontinent in third century B. C. E. as the ancestor of the Hindu Arabic, Lichhavi, Kharosthi and other different numeral systems is popular by Brahmi numeral system. Ashoka prepared the pillar to preserve the Brahmi inscription with consisting numerals. The Brahmi numerical symbols are found at Lumbini of Nepal, for example a symbol used there tells the division by eight (Athabhagiya) and conversely multiplication of eight. Ashoka pillar with different inscriptions were found at Bihar, Uttarpradesh, Delhi, Madhyapradesh of India and different parts of Nepal like Niglihawa and Lumbini. In this system numerals are written from left to right. This system was very popular in South Asian Subcontinent for a long time and it impacts to the development of other numeral systems. The aim of this paper is to explore the hierchy and the existence of symbols of Brahmi numeral on the basis of document analysis and symbols found at different manuscript and monuments.

Abstract:

Abstract The hymns that constitute the Rig Veda required flowers to be used in religious ceremonies and through these ancient Hindu texts we discover that gardens have enjoyed a long tradition in India. Garland-makers grew flowers for festivals and most households tried to cultivate a few blooms to offer in prayer and ritual. Trees with sacred associat10ns such as Kadam (Neolamarckia cadamba) and Champaka (Michelia champaca) are still familiar sentinels in temple gardens. Public parks were laid out for recreation, usually on the outskirts of towns and frequently near rivers. Asoka, the greatest emperor of the Mauryan empire and a Buddhist convert, encouraged the planting of trees along highways as well as in parks and gardens. His pillar in Delhi, one of a number erected throughout the empire proclaiming royal edicts, announced ‘that everywhere wholesome vegetables, roots and fruit trees shall be cultivated, and that on the roads wells shall be dug and trees planted to give enjoyment for both men and animals’.

Abstract:

Abstract Hindustan Times—the very name itself exudes a subtle hue of intoxicating patriotism, and so has been its journey (quite peculiar, to say the least) on the path of truth telling, all through the 20th-century British Raj up until the political scenario of today. As the author analyses the genesis of this behemoth which began as a Delhi-centric paper by the Akalis in 1924, and recognized the presence of Sikh patriotism, following its trail which leads into 2019, she realizes that the organization has undergone a sea of changes, which are nothing short of revolutionary. The idea behind the start of the paper was to rouse the nationalistic sentiments among the masses through its writing. The Akalis also wanted to propagate the ideals of Sikhism through the paper to draw strength and inspiration from the ideals of Sikhism, so that they stayed motivated to fight for the cause of freedom. To reflect upon this and its subsequent effects, she looks into how the media house worked as a vehicle for change that sought to loosen the iron grip of the colonizers, and how it successfully soldiered on with its rousing words until India gained independence. No one could have predicted at the time that Hindustan Times was to become one of India’s most popular English dailies. The Hindustan Times changed ownership multiple times to finally stabilize under the patronage of the Birlas, who have since been the owners of the HT Group of companies. Post-independence, the chapter chronologically follows the changing patterns the organization undertook, as audience interests became important in a market that was fast moving from a social to a monetary field. Also mentioned at length are the motivations and inspiring stories of the people at HT, who derived from the past, and managed the group’s businesses in information, education, and entertainment in print (both newspapers and magazines), radio, and digital mediums, leading them to exponential growth and multifaceted diversification. The group has grown to establish a longstanding empire that has seen innumerable changes in various segments, and the author decodes this entire process by evaluating these changes in view of including design, layout, content, ownership, distribution, circulation, technology, geo-political launches, pricing strategies, visionary leadership, and changes in ownership. Additionally, the chapter talks about the impact of digitization on Hindustan Times and how they have adapted to it by modifying their growth and business models, making references to their annual reports and financial reviews. The author, in this book, seeks to analyse this roller coaster of a journey that has been undertaken by the HT Group after talking to Shobhana Bhartia, listing down her observations regarding the same. In presenting a holistic development map of Hindustan Times to her readers, the author gives them a glimpse of how India itself has progressed over the years.

Abstract:

<p>The Statue of Unity is an iconic symbol of the ‘Iron Man of India’, Sardar Vallabhai Patel, who played a leading role in India's struggle for independence, guiding its integration into a united, independent nation. This statue is a colossal structure facing the Sardar Sarovar Dam on the river Narmada, in the state of Gujarat, India, and is presently the tallest statue in the world. This statue with a height of 182 m, erected on a river island, is exposed to heavy winds that necessitated wind load analysis. Considering the height of the statue, its specific geometry and specific location posed the greatest challenges that required special attention to the wind loads acting on the statue. Due to these complicated aspects of geometry, the estimation of loads employing building codes, such as IS:875 will not give accurate results. The present work focuses on a comprehensive wind load analysis of the statue, incorporating all critical factors that can influence the wind loading on the structure like the local topographic effects on the wind flow.</p><p>Local topography and its potential topographic effects merit special consideration in wind response predictions. Wind tunnel studies were carried out on a scaled model, following the established international standards and procedures. The wind-induced structural responses on the statue were analysed employing High-Frequency Force Balance (HFFB) technique. The statue has bronze cladding panels throughout on the external surface and the wind loads on these elements were also estimated by wind tunnel tests. In addition to structural and cladding wind tunnel tests, pedestrian- level wind comfort studies were also carried out, considering the large number of tourists expected to visit the statue and to avoid any discomfort due to wind. All these studies generated enormous data that provided valuable inputs for the safe design of the structure.</p>

Abstract:

<p>Post liberalization, India has witnessed massive infrastructure growth. One of the reasons for this magnificent growth was easy availability of foreign technology, which is required for building massive infrastructure. Being the second fastest growing economy, at an average GDP of 7-8 % for past ten years, the loss due to corrosion is to the tune of USD 40 billion every year, which is about 4 percent of the GDP. Steel corrosion is the most common problem faced by most of the countries. There is a need to find ways and means to plug leakages on maintenance costs due to corrosion and offer the right solutions to enhance the life of civil structures by using suitable cost effective coating on steel. Scientists and engineers are focusing on developing corrosion free material , which has not become reality because of economies of scale. However many new protective coatings have been developed to prolong the life of steel.</p> <p>The reliability of the built environment, both general construction and infrastructure, is paramount to minimize the ever increasing costs of maintenance. And avoiding the serious costs to society of disrupted transportation routes, failed communication networks, inadequate energy supply, or deficient water control systems, when infrastructure must be repaired or replaced, has become more critical. There is an acute demand for investments that provide long service life buildings and infrastructure. Globally, more than $1.5 trillion will be spent annually over the coming years on new construction, or on repair or replacement of existing infrastructure. Whether for residential or commercial buildings, for energy, water, communications or transportation systems, construction projects will rely heavily on reinforced concrete as a principal building material. Protecting the reinforcing steel (rebar) from corrosion is a critical investment to prolong the life and improve reliability of the built Structure and environment.</p> <p>Coatings are well established as a means to protect rebar from corrosion. Hot-dip galvanized rebar (HDG) has been used successfully for over 50 years although it is sometimes perceived as a niche product. With the advancement of technology, low cost continuous grade Galvanized Rebar is a recent development. Furthermore, by using a small aluminum-containing zinc bath, it will produce a galvanized reinforcing product with 40-60 microns of pure zinc coating that can not only successfully withstand the subsequent reinforcing bar forming operations, but has the potential to resist corrosion in concrete equal to that of much thicker zinc-iron coatings.</p>

Abstract:

<div class="section abstract"><div class="htmlview paragraph">In India, , as per mandate of hon'ble Supreme Court of India for reduction of emission due to vehicles, compressed natural gas (CNG) powered city buses and passengers cars are in use since 2000. Their usage is limited to metropolitan cities like Delhi, Mumbai, Bangalore etc. due to limitation of CNG storage and dispensing infrastructure along with low energy density storage. High energy density liquid form of natural gas storage (LNG) can overcome these difficulties and promising in near future. Simultaneously, there is a need for development of efficient fuel storage system, fuel supply system, engine optimization & calibration, engine lubricant etc. suitable for implementation of LNG for automotive application. In this background, the present work is aimed at the framework of engine testing facility, development of dedicated lubricant and performance of the engine for LNG application.</div><div class="htmlview paragraph">This paper describes LNG engine test lab standard operating procedure developed during the LNG internal combustion engine dynamometer testing programme. Due to safety requirement, it is neither advisable nor permissible to connect large LNG cryogenic tankers to engine test bench. Hence, state of the art small & portable cryogenic LNG tank (450 Lit water capacity (WC)) comprised of vacuum and super insulated layered configuration manufactured as per International Organization for Standardization (ISO) 21029-1 and type tested according to ISO-12991 was designed as horizontal tank to transport LNG from large LNG cryogenic tanker to engine testing site. Bharat Stage (BS) VI emission standard complied LNG engine testing facility was developed and forced convection heat transfer methodology applied for avoiding icing at re-gasified liquefied natural gas (RLNG) fuel line.</div><div class="htmlview paragraph">This paper presents the development of dedicated lubricant for LNG fuelled heavy duty (HD) engine and establishment of oil drain interval and evaluation was done on 6-cylinder HD engine using LNG fuel. The engine was optimized for using LNG fuel. Initial performance of the engine using LNG was compared vis-à-vis CNG and, thereafter, the engine was subjected to endurance test of 1500 hours as per engine simulated driving cycle that closely represents road drive conditions to validate the technology and to establish the drain interval of lubricant. Further, to access the actual performance, limited field trials of 30,000 Km with LNG fuelled busses have been completed. It has been observed that LNG shows reduction of CO, THC and CH4 emissions and NOx emissions increased as compared to CNG. However, these values meet the BS VI emission norms. Oil sampling and analysis were undertaken after completion of every 100 hrs along with performance of the engine i.e. Power (kW), Torque (Nm) and brake specific fuel consumption (BSFC) (g/kWh) and emission characteristics. Engine performance was found satisfactory during endurance test. Developed engine oil demonstrated excellent behavior with LNG fuel and used engine oil physicochemical properties i.e. Kinematic viscosity@100°C, Total Base number (TBN), Total acid number (TAN), oxidation, nitration and wear elements (Iron (Fe), Copper (Cu), Aluminum (AL), Lead (Pb)) were reported well within the permissible limit. The study shows that the lubricant can be used for LNG application.</div></div>
