Abstract:
N-doped porous carbon materials derived from bamboo fibers (NBFCs) were synthesized through a simple simultaneous activation and carbonization method. The effects of the adsorbent dosage, absorption temperature, pH of the solution, initial concentration, and contact time on the absorption of methylene blue were investigated. The equilibrium, kinetics, isotherms, and thermodynamics of the adsorption process were also analyzed. The results showed that NBFC-800 had a good adsorption capacity of 816.0 mg/g and a high removal efficiency of 93.3% during the optimum absorption process with an adsorbent dosage of 0.8 g/L, adsorption temperature of 25 °C, initial concentration of 700 mg/L, and a solution pH of 9.0. The adsorption process included instantaneous adsorption or external surface adsorption, intraparticle diffusion, and an equilibrium process. Methylene blue adsorption of NBFC-800 agreed with the pseudo second-order model and belonged to the Langmuir isotherm model. The results will be useful for the development of high-performance NBFCs to efficiently remove methylene blue from wastewater.

Abstract:
Non-Banking Financial Companies (NBFC) are those financial institutions which cater to the demand of those customers whom banks think as sub-prime. In India these companies referred to as NBFC are currently very vulnerable and it is a concern for both RBI as well as the government. The major reason for the concern is the 2019 crisis in the NBFC sector. The crisis which ended in late 2019 was not an overnight event. The worsening of the conditions of NBFCs started in the mid-2018 and gradually deteriorated. The whole crisis timeline can be divided in 2 parts. The first part being the period in which the uncovering of the situation happens and the second part is the actions taken against the defaulters and measures to revive the sector. In this paper we have done an event study of the announcements made during the first period which showed the uncovering of crisis. The major announcements which took place in that period were considered and how those announcement affected the stock price of the related companies. The reason for doing this study was to assess the ripple effect of an announcement of one company on the company, industry and economy as a whole.

Abstract:
Chrozophora tinctoria is an annual plant of the family Euphorbiaceae, traditionally used as a laxative, a cathartic and an emetic. A methanolic extract of Chrozophora tinctoria (MEC) whole plant and an n-butanol fraction of Chrozophora tinctoria (NBFC) were analyzed by gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC-MS) to detect the phytochemicals. MEC and NBFC were tested for in vitro anti acetylcholinesterase (AChE) potential. The effect of both samples on intestinal propulsive movement and spasmolytic activity in the gastrointestinal tract (GIT) was also studied. About twelve compounds in MEC and three compounds in NBFC were tentatively identified through GC-MS. Some of them are compounds with known therapeutic activity, such as toluene; imipramine; undecane; 14-methyl-pentadecanoic acid methyl ester; and hexadecanoic acid. Both NBFC and MEC samples were checked for acute toxicity and were found to be highly toxic in a dose-dependent manner, causing diarrhea and emesis at 1 g/kg concentration in pigeons, with the highest lethargy and mortality above 3 g/kg. Both the samples of Chrozophora tinctoria revealed significant (p ≤ 0.01) laxative activity against metronidazole (7 mg/kg) and loperamide hydrochloride (4 mg/kg)-induced constipation. NBFC (81.18 ± 2.5%) and MEC (68.28 ± 2.4%) significantly increased charcoal meal intestinal transit compared to distal water (41.15 ± 4.3%). NBFC exhibited a significant relaxant effect (EC50 = 3.40 ± 0.20 mg/mL) in spontaneous rabbit jejunum as compared to MEC (EC50 = 4.34 ± 0.68 mg/kg). Similarly, the impact of NBFC on KCl-induced contraction was more significant than that of MEC (EC50 values of 7.22 ± 0.06 mg/mL and 7.47 ± 0.57 mg/mL, respectively). The present study scientifically validates the folk use of Chrozophora tinctoria in the management of gastrointestinal diseases such as constipation. Further work is needed to isolate the phytochemicals that act as diarrheal agents in Chrozophora tinctoria.

Abstract:
Over the past few years, the NBFC sector in India has witnessed a noteworthy transformation by catering to employment generation, infrastructure development, wealth creation and financial upliftment of the weaker sections. With the growing credit of NBFCs, their profitability becomes an important aspect for their existence. Hence, the current student is aimed at identifying the determinants of profitability of Non-Banking Financial Companies (NBFCs) in India. The data pertaining to top 10 NBFCs listed on BSE for a period of five years from FY2015-16 to FY2019-20 was considered as sample for the study. Two different regression models were used for the data analysis where ROA and ROE were used as dependent variables. Capital adequacy, asset quality, operating profitability and net interest margin were used as independent variables in both the models. It was found that capital adequacy and operating profitability has significant impact on ROA. Whereas the factors significantly impacting ROE were capital adequacy, operating profitability and net interest margin.

Abstract:
In India, more than 450 million people are outside banking orbit. Many economically deprived communities borrow money from money lenders who charged them to an extent of 115% interest. Microfinance was a strong tool to rescue the poor from Ponzi Schemes. Microfinance industry thrived well in India. It recorded huge growth in South India than North India. The Microfinance crisis broke during the year 2010 in Andhra Pradesh. A bill enacted in Andhra Pradesh made the situation still worse. The repayment rate of the Micro finance clients dropped from 95% (2010) to 1% (2012). This made the survival of the Microfinance Institutions (MFIs) questionable. The paper aims at exploring the solvency and survival positions of the Private & Public NBFC MFIs. Based on the Altman’s Z revised score model (applicable for financial institutions) and Survival analysis, the results reflect that Private NBFC MFIs are solvent and had better survival than Public NBFC MFIs. It aims at understanding the factors discriminating the solvent and insolvent Microfinance Institutions. JEL Classification Codes: G20, G21, G23, G28, G33.

Abstract:
The NBFCs have been the proxies of shadow banking in India. The shadow banking channel is in its evolutionary phase in India. Hence the debate about the shadow banking channels is still on as far as India is concerned. The FSB (Financial Stability Board) in its report points out the various emerging trends and growth of the shadow banking channels in various countries including India. It is imperative to study the trends of shadow banking channels in India to understand the possible financial contagion effect of it on the formal banking systems. This paper studies the deposits accepted by and the loans advanced by the NBFCs from/to the households sector, the credit flow to the commercial sector from the non-banking channels to understand the broad trends. It further studies the difference in the net flow of resources to and from a particular type of NBFCs, to gain insights into the sources of funds with an objective to understand the interconnectedness of NBFCs and the formal banking channels. The paper makes an attempt to study the relationship between CRAR and GNPA to understand the financial performance with a specific reference to NBFC-MFIs (selected on a sample basis).

Abstract:
In the recent financial crises, attention has shifted towards "too-central-to-fail" to recognize the sources of systemic risk. The NBFC Crisis of 2018-19 adversely affected other financial institutions and the real economy of India. The NBFCs crisis highlighted the role of smaller institutions in perpetuating and amplifying the crisis. Thus, the present study models the interconnection of NBFCs with the rest of financial institutions using a complex Granger-causality network based on returns data. The PageRank algorithm identifies the central and important nodes and ranks financial institutions in pre-crisis and crisis periods. The financial institutions are also ranked based on the maximum percentage loss suffered during the crises. Using non-parametric rank-based regression, the PageRank ranking of financial institutions in the pre-crises period (explanatory variable) is regressed with the ranking of financial institutions based on maximum percentage loss suffered by them during the crises period (dependent variable) along with Leverage and Size as control variables. We found that PageRank from pre-crisis can significantly identify most financial institutions that suffered loss during NBFCs crises even in the presence of control variables.

Este trabalho trata do processo de convergência tecnológica NBIC (Nano-Bio-Info-Cogno), o qual é apresentado como processo transdisciplinar com implicações ontológicas e epistemológicas no conjunto da teoria do conhecimento. A característica transdisciplinar é determinada pela convergência de campos do conhecimento até então distintos, como os estudos biológicos, informacionais e cognitivos, que passam a interagir através da nanotecnologia. Esta interação convergente é a base do conceito de unidade da matéria, o qual refere-se à manipulação da matéria em escala nanométrica, permitindo a integração de sistemas biológicos e tecnológicos em sistemas híbridos. As tecnologias convergentes trazem implicações éticas e suscitam o surgimento de novas ontologias. A convergência tecnológica é também epistemológica, pois integra diversas epistemologias gerando novos espaços de intersecção entre as áreas do conhecimento, que por sua vez dão origem a ontologias emergentes. Situando-se metodologicamente na dinâmica de mudança conceitual de Paul Thagard e no método abdutivo de Peirce, este trabalho efetua uma análise teórica das relações conceituais entre a unidade da matéria e a unidade do conhecimento. A constatação fundamental é a de que a informação, organizada e distribuída de forma complexa em diversas estruturas e sistemas, pode ser encontrada em todos os níveis da natureza e do ser humano, confirmando o conceito de unidade da matéria pela constatação e estabelecimento de fluxos informacionais ubíquos desde o nível quântico. Os fluxos informacionais são os principais agentes da unidade do conhecimento. Os conceitos de informação e significado, analisados de forma sistêmica, emergem no contemporâneo como os principais elementos de re-ligação entre as diferentes áreas do conhecimento e suas respectivas epistemologias. Portanto, a consiliência em NBIC é informacional, sistêmica e semiótica. Conhecer as dinâmicas da informação e do conhecimento é também conhecer a essência ontológica da realidade. This work concerns the process of NBIC (Nano-Bio-Info-Cogno) convergence, which is hereby presented as a transdisciplinary process having epistemological and ontological consequences within a general theory of knowledge. This transdisciplinary character is established through the convergence of fields of knowledge that were, until now, distinct; such as the fields of biology, information technology and cognitive sciences, which are now interacting due to nanotechnologies. This converging interaction is the basis of the concept of unity of matter, which refers to the manipulation of matter at the nano scale, allowing the integration between biological and technological systems within hybrid systems. Converging technologies have ethical implications and originate new ontologies. We observe that convergence is also epistemological, because it encompasses various epistemologies, giving rise to new spaces of intersection between different areas of knowledge, which give rise to emerging ontologies. Consilience in NBIC is informational, systemic and semiotic; because the concepts of information and meaning, when subject to a systemic inquiry, emerge as the main elements connecting various areas of knowledge and their epistemologies. Using as our main methodology Paul Thagard´s dynamics of conceptual change and Peirce´s abduction method, we analyze the theory arising within the conceptual relations between unity of matter and unity of knowledge. Our main conclusion is that information, distributed and organized in complex systems and structures, can be found in every level of nature and humanity, confirming the concept of unity of matter by the acknowledgement and establishment of ubiquitous information flow from quantum levels. Information flow is the main agent of consilience. Knowing the dynamics of information and knowledge is knowing the ontological essence of reality.

Abstract:
Cerâmicas à base de alumina pertencem à classe de materiais denominados estruturais, muito utilizados em ferramentas de corte. A alumina possui boas propriedades para uso como cerâmica estrutural e com o objetivo de melhorar suas tenacidade à fratura e resistência mecânica, são produzidos compósitos com diferentes aditivos. Novos estudos apontam para os micro-nanocompósitos, onde a adição de partículas micrométricas deve auxiliar no aumento da resistência mecânica, e de partículas nanométricas, no aumento da tenacidade à fratura. Neste trabalho foram obtidos micro-nanocompósitos à base de Al2O3 com inclusão de partículas nanométricas de NbC e micrométricas de WC com proporções de 2:1, 6:4, 10:5 e 15:10 e micro-nanocompósitos à base de Al2O3 com inclusão de partículas nanométricas de NbC e micrométricas de TaC com proporção de 2:1 em relação à alumina. Para o estudo de densificação, os micro-nanocompósitos foram sinterizados em dilatômetro com taxa de aquecimento de 20 °C / min até a temperatura de 1800 °C, em atmosfera de argônio. Com base nos resultados de dilatometria, corpos de prova foram sinterizados entre 1500°C e 1700°C, com patamar de 30 minutos, em forno resistivo de grafite e atmosfera de argônio. Foram determinadas as densidades, fases cristalinas formadas, durezas e tenacidades, e analisadas as microestruturas dos micro-nanocompósitos. As amostras Al2O3:NbC:TaC sinterizadas a 1700°C atingiram as maiores densidades aparentes (~95%DT) e a amostra sinterizada a 1600°C apresentou microestrutura homogênea e valor de dureza (15,8 GPa) em comparação à alumina pura. As composições com 3% de inclusões são as mais promissoras para aplicações futuras como ferramentas de corte.
Alumina based ceramics belong to a class of materials designated as structural, which are widely used in cutting tools. Although alumina has good properties for application as a structural ceramics, composites with different additives have been produced with the aim of improving its fracture toughness and mechanical strength. New studies point out micro-nanocomposites, wherein the addition of micrometric particles should enhance mechanical strength, and nano-sized particles enhance fracture toughness. In this work, alumina based micro-nanocomposites were obtained by including nano-sized NbC and micrometer WC particles at 2:1, 6:4, 10:5 and 15:10 vol% proportions, and also with the inclusion of nano-sized NbC and micrometer TaC particles at 2:1 vol% proportion. For the study of densification, micro-nanocomposites were sintered in a dilatometer with a heating rate of 20°C/min until a temperature of 1800°C in argon atmosphere. Based on the dilatometry results, specimens were sintered in a resistive graphite furnace under argon atmosphere between 1500°C and 1700°C by holding the sintering temperature for 30 minutes. Densities, crystalline phases, hardness and tenacity were determined, and micro-nanocomposites microstructures were analyzed. The samples Al2O3: NbC: TaC sintered at 1700 ° C achieved the greater apparent density (~ 95% TD) and the sample sintered at 1600 ° C showed homogeneous microstructure and increased hardness value (15.8 GPa) compared to the pure alumina . The compositions with 3% inclusions are the most promising for future applications.

Abstract:
Samhällsutvecklingen går från industrisamhälle till informationssamhälle och Försvarsmakten (FM) går fråninvasionsförsvar till insatsförsvar. Tidigare var det mer regel än undantag att civil teknologi hade sitt ursprung imilitär teknologi, t.ex. Internet. Idag är det precis tvärtom med marknadskrafterna som driver utvecklingen avt.ex. IT i ett högt tempo. Väpnade styrkor strävar efter att ta till vara på denna utveckling inom kommunikationoch informationsteknologi, i syfte att ha förmåga att möta framtida hot. Den militära utvecklingen inom dettaområde benämns Revolution in Military Affairs (RMA). Den svenska FM:s motsvarighet benämnsnätverksbaserat försvar (NBF) och är en tillämpning av tankegångarna kring konceptet RMA. Omfattandeforskning pågår inom IT generellt och telematiken är inte undantagen.Det amerikanska dokumentet Joint Vision 2010 FOCUSED LOGISTICS menar att teknologiutvecklingkommer att spela en avgörande roll för logistikledning, och att förbättringar av bl.a. built in test (BIT) ochtelemaintenance kommer att höja den tekniska personalens effektivitet. Telemaintenance är en delmängd avbegreppet telematik och består av: Fordonstjänster innehållande diagnostik för övervakning avfordonssystemet, larm för påkallning om allvarliga fel håller på att uppstå samt ”Vehicle Control” förfjärrstyrning av fordons funktioner. Underhållstjänster innehållande driftsinformation om t.ex. antaldriftstimmar, bränsleförbrukning, vibration, etc. Tjänsterna undersöks i denna uppsats med bakgrund avteknisk tjänst, vars syfte är att understödja krigsförbandens förmåga att lösa sina uppgifter. Teknisk tjänstbidrar till teknisk och taktisk tillgänglighet genom att säkerställa att ett tillräckligt antal materielsystem kanverka med erforderlig effekt.Uppsatsen tydliggör förväntningar på ett telemaintenance-system hos svensk trupp insatta i internationellaoperationer, närmare bestämt vilket behov av telemaintenance som 1993 förelåg vid den första bataljonen(BA01) som sattes in i Bosnien ingående i UNPROFOR.
As our industrial society has become more information based, ournational defense requirements have changed focus from an invasion defenceto an operations defence. For many years, new information technologiessuch as the internet were first developed for military use. Today the oppositeis true. Market forces are now driving the development of new technologiessuch as IT, at a fast pace. Armed forces must strive to make use of thesedevelopments within the areas of communication and informationtechnology, to better prepare for future threats. The military development inthis sector in called a “Revolution in Military Affairs” (RMA). The SwedishArmed Forces equivalency is called a “network-based defense” (NBF) andmakes use of the RMA concept. Extensive research is underway within ITin general and telematics is not an exception.The American document, “Joint Vision 2010 FOCUSED LOGISTICS”claims that the development of technology will play a decisive part inlogistics management, and that improvement in among other things, BITand telemaintenance will raise the effectiveness of technical servicepersonnel. Telemaintenance is one part within the concept of telematics andconsists of:Vehicle service consisting of diagnostic surveillance of vehicle systems,alarms for indication of serious faults, and Vehicle Control for remotecontrolling of vehicle functions.Maintenance service consisting of operational information such as thenumber of hours in operation, fuel consumption, vibration etc.Telemaintenance is investigated in this thesis with a background ofSwedish Army maintenance concept, which purpose is to support militaryfield units in their ability to solve their tasks. The maintenance conceptoffers greater technical and tactical availability by keeping optimal numbersof material systems operational.This thesis describes the expectations of a telemaintenence system of aSwedish troop in international operation, or more precisely, thetelemaintenence needs that were evident in 1993 at the first battalion(BA01) in Bosnia as part of UNPROFOR.

Developing, implementing and evaluating models of care that reduce the caesarean section (CS) rate have been a health care priority in Australia since the 1990’s. There is minimal evidence examining models of care that aim to nurture women’s emotional well-being after CS; as well as providing consistent evidence-based information and promoting safe and successful vaginal birth in the subsequent pregnancy. Furthermore the experiences of midwives working in these models have been overlooked.

Abstract:
Les discours portés sur la convergence NBIC (convergence des nanotechnologies, biotechnologies, technologies de l'information et des sciences cognitives) relèvent d'une dimension symbolique et restent tributaires d'une pensée mythique héritée. Pour saisir tous les enjeux profonds des nouvelles technologies, il est indispensable d'en connaître les ressorts imaginaires. En effet, les sciences et les techniques (ce que nous appelons technologies) sont constituées, comme toute praxis humaine, d'images et de désirs ambivalents. En adoptant une vue sur le long terme et en inscrivant le domaine technologique dans l'histoire culturelle de la longue durée, nous tentons, dans le présent travail, de définir les contours d'un imaginaire technologique en cours de construction. La mise en récit de la convergence NBIC (qui est également une mise en images) est le lieu de réminiscences mythiques. Bien plus, selon nous, le "grand récit" de la convergence NBIC (elle-même présentée comme une révolution paradigmatique) est une actualisation du mythe cosmogonique. Par ces thèmes principaux (la maîtrise et la manipulation de la matière, la transformation de l'homme, l'héroïsation du scientifique, l'immortalité) le récit NBIC apparaît comme l'expression moderne d'un défi démiurgique que l'homme est invité à relever, devenant lui-même l'acteur d'une nouvelle religion : la religion de la technologie
Discourses about NBIC convergence (convergence between nanotechnology, biotechnology, information technology and cognitive science) have a symbolic dimension and depend on an inherited mythic thought. In order to strike the underlying stakes of new technologies, it is essential to know their imaginary aspects. Indeed, sciences and technics (what we call technologies) are constituted, like every human praxis, by ambivalent images and desires. By adopting a long term view and positioning the technological domain in the long cultural history, we try, in this work, to define the outlines of a technological imagination in progress. The NBIC convergence narration (which is also a game of images) brings about mythical reminiscences. Moreover, in our opinion, the "great story" about NBIC convergence (which is presented like a paradigmatic revolution) is an actualization of the cosmogonic myth. With its main themes (mastery and manipulation of the matter, human transformation, portraits made of scientists as new heroes, immortality), NBIC story appears like the modern expression of a demiurgic challenge that the mankind is tempted to take up, becoming himself the actor of a new religion: the technological religion

Abstract:
Det nätverksbaserade försvaret (NBF) är en vision som kommer att ställa många nya krav. Såväl rent tekniskasom organisatoriska. För mig har de organisatoriska aspekterna av NBF varit av särskilt intresse. När jaghar tagit del av skrifter och samtal rörande det nätverksbaserade försvaret har jag speciellt fäst mig vid att detibland framkommer att en självsynkroniserande organisation skulle vara det optimala slutmålet. Jag har självtjänstgjort inom olika befattningar inom flygvapnets ledningssystem, först STRIL – 60 och sedan Flygvapnet2000. De erfarenheter jag själv har gjort under min tid i Flygvapnet har lett mig fram till slutsatsen att själsynkroniseringvar den sämsta tänkbara av reservnivåer. För att komma lösning på gåtan om organiseringsproblematikennärmare har jag med utgångspunkt från teorier om organisatoriska framgångsfaktorer valt attgenomföra ett antal simuleringar. Jag har vid två tillfällen simulerat ett luftförsvarsscenario, vid dessa tvåtillfällen användes två olika uppsättningar av deltagare. Vid första simuleringstillfället gavs deltagarna tydligaroller och arbetsbeskrivningar, i denna uppsats kallade ”Beslutsregler”. Vid det andra tillfället fick deltagarnaendast en roll tilldelad, de fick sedan utifrån sina tidigare erfarenheter forma dessa roller. Vid varjetillfälle har det dessutom gjorts två delsimuleringar med skilda organisatoriska och tekniska förutsättningar.De kategorier av personal som funnits med under simuleringarna är, flygförare, flygstridsledare, chefsflygstridsledareoch luftförsvarsledare. Vid båda tillfällena fick deltagarna i uppgift att luftförsvara Stockholm.För att mäta effektskillnader i vad de olika organisationerna lyckades uppnå vid de olika simuleringstillfällenaså erhölls poäng för varje mål deltagarna lyckades bekämpa. Målen i scenarierna har haft olika poängvärdeberoende på om de har varit på väg mot Stockholm eller andra geografiska områden, där målen motStockholm gett högst poäng. Vid analys av slutresultaten framkommer en del mycket intressanta skillnaderpå vad de olika organisationerna lyckades åstadkomma och även hur de agerade, bl.a. visade det sig att centraliseradledning inte alltid är av ondo.
During my career in the Royal Swedish Air Force I have served in several different positions,amongst them I can mention the ones as weapons controller and fighter allocater.During the recent years, I have through the reading of different books and discussionswith my colleagues, encountered the opinion that self-synchronised organisationswould be the ultimate goal when organising Network Centric Warfare. My own experiencewas that this was the last option used after everything else had failed. In Swedishlitterateur regarding Network Centric Warfare, you can see the expression of a will to beable to change command philosophy from centralised command to a decentralised anddelegated (Auftragstaktik) command. In this essay I have examined the effectiveness oftwo different organisations, the first one more like a classic hierarchic organisationcomplemented with rules regarding responsibilities for each participant. The participantsin the second organisation only got a role and then had to fulfil this role drawingon their previous experience from working in the Air Force. The participants were allAir Force officers and each one of them could only participate in one of the organisations.The organisations were then tasked to carry out counter air operations in a simulator.Their only mission during the simulations was to protect the city of Stockholm. Inthe simulation the participants met a pre-recorded adversary, for the elimination of atarget the organisations were awarded points. The target heading towards Stockholmearned each organisation more points then other targets. The accumulated points thengave a rating for their effectiveness. The result was then analysed with the help of theoriesregarding what is needed for organisational success and theories regarding networkorganisations. The conclusions clearly state that the organisation with the rules achieveda better result, especially when the technical conditions degenerated. This organisationeven succeeded to improve their result with degraded technical conditions, the otherorganisation got a lower result during the same circumstances. One of the main reasonsthe organisation who had to rely on their previous experience from the Air Force nevergot up to the same standard as the other organisation, was due to the fact that they hadto spend more time to get them selves organised. Furthermore my examination showsthat networks are very complex and hard to overlook for an individual person. Thisleads to problems when you want to communicate in the network and also severe problemswhen it comes to optimizing the efficiency of the network.

Abstract:
Ett syfte med nätverksbaserat försvar är att erhålla snabbare reaktionstider i ledningssystem.Ad hoc-näten utgör en framtida möjlighet att erbjuda taktiskt rörliga enheteruppkoppling i nätverk även under förflyttning. Det kan på sikt inkludera de funktionersom har krav på liten fördröjning i uppkopplingarna. Exempel på en sådan funktion ärsensorintegration genom sensornät. Ett av problemen i ad hoc-nätverksutvecklingenligger i att de dataprotokoll som ska utnyttjas för att erbjuda en kompabilitet mot denfasta nätstrukturen, inte har den funktionsduglighet som krävs i ett ad hoc-nät. För att gesnabb överföring krävs en utvecklad variant av de nätverksprotokoll (TCP/IP) somhanterar uppkomna fel på förbindelsen. Detta är avgörande för ad hoc-nätverkensfunktionsduglighet. Det skulle resultera i minskade fördröjningar och därmed ökadkapacitet. Mycket talar för att snabbheten kommer att bli så stor att multisensordatafusionkan realiseras i ad hoc-nät.

Abstract:
In this study, we demonstrate the electric and magnetic manipulation of nanoscale M-type Barium Hexaferrite (nBF) in polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) to engineer a multifunctional nanocomposite with improved dielectric and magnetic properties. First, we synthesized the single crystal nBF via the hydrothermal synthesis route. The hydrothermal temperature, duration, and surfactant conditions were optimized to improve the magnetic properties of the nBFs, with further improvement achieved by post-annealing. The annealed nBFs were aligned dielectrophoretically (DEP) in the polymer matrices by applying an AC electric field. Under the influence of this electric field, nBFs were observed to rotate, align and form chains within the polymer matrix. Optical microscopy (OM) imaging was used to determine the electrical alignment conditions (duration, magnitude, and frequency) and these parameters were used to fabricate the composites. A Teflon setup with Indium Tin Oxide (ITO) coated Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) was used, where the ITO coatings act as electrodes for the electric field-manipulation. To simultaneously apply the magnetic field, this Teflon setup is placed between two permanent magnets capable of generating a 0.6 T external magnetic field. Along with electric and magnetic fields, concurrent heating was applied to cure the PDMS and freeze the microstructure formed due to electric and magnetic fields. Upon completion of the curing step, parallel chain formation is observed under OM. The X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) results also confirm that the particles are magnetically oriented in the direction of the magnetic field within the chain. Vibrating Sample Magnetometry (VSM) measurements and dielectric spectroscopy are used to characterize the extent of anisotropy and improvement in dielectric and magnetic properties compared to random composites. We find that simultaneous electric and magnetic field alignment improves the dielectric properties by 12% compared to just magnetic alignment. We also observe 19% improved squareness ratio when both fields are applied. The possibility of simultaneous electrical and magnetic alignment of magnetic nanoparticles will open up new doors to manipulate and design particle-modified polymers for various applications.

Abstract:
Al12Si–NbC composite coatings were deposited by laser cladding on a substrate of Al–7Si alloy. The microstructure and wear resistance of the coatings were evaluated in comparison to the properties of the substrate and the matrix alloy. The wear resistance was evaluated using ball-on-plate reciprocating sliding tests using an AISI 52100 steel sphere as counterbody. The coatings microstructure consists of NbC particles dispersed in a matrix of α–Al and α–Al/Si eutectic. The reinforcement with NbC particles induces a considerable increase in the average hardness of the matrix material from 85±1 HV to 147±40 HV and in the respective wear resistance. The wear mechanisms involve oxidation, adhesion with plastic deformation and delamination.

Abstract:
In late 2018, the default by a major nonbanking financial company (NBFC) in India led to a credit crunch in the Indian economy. This paper analyzes the evolution of the NBFC sector in India and the sector’s role in extending credit, and it discusses the factors contributing to the 2018 crisis. The paper attempts to understand the advantages and disadvantages of the business model of NBFCs, and the drivers of their rapid rise and subsequent challenges. The paper also briefly discusses the potential impact of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic on the NBFC sector.
