Estimating the wind-induced responses of high-rise buildings requires a detailed investigation wind force characteristics and structural dynamics, especially when an existing neighboring building has equivalent volume at adjacent locations. The interference effects caused by such may seriously alternate loading on target further affect its to safety or habitability evaluation. This research inv...

Microchannels are well known in microfluidic applications for the control and separation of microdroplets cells. Often objects flow experience inertial effects, resulting dynamics that is a departure from underlying channel dynamics. This paper considers small neutrally buoyant spherical particles suspended through curved duct having square cross-section. The particle experiences combination li...

Background: Myths form an integral part of the society, which could prove detrimental to the populaces. Several myths about dispensing primary teeth exist in India, which have not been researched. Objective: This survey was performed, to understand the beliefs and practices that prevail, associated with the disposal of primary teeth, at Bhopal, India. Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional su...

A finite-difference frequency-domain method based on the Yee's cell is utilized to analyze the band diagrams of two-dimensional photonic crystals with square or triangular lattice. The differential operator is replaced by the compact scheme and the index average scheme is introduced to deal with the curved dielectric interfaces in the unit cell. For the triangular lattice, the hexagonal unit ce...

Background: Mental disorders are widely recognized as a major contributor to the global burden of disease worldwide. The aim of this study was to examine the knowledge and attitude about mental illness among general public. Method: This is a cross-sectional survey conducted from October 2008 to March 2009. A questionnaire was designed to assess knowledge, attitude, and practice regarding mental...
