South Asia in the World: An Introduction
This first book in the new Foundations in Global Studies series offers a fresh, comprehensive, multidisciplinary introduction to South Asia. The variations in social, cultural, economic, and political life in this diverse and complex region are explored within the context of the globalising forces affecting all regions of the world. In a simple strategy that all books in the series employ, the volume begins with foundational material (including chapters on history, language, and, in the case of South Asia, religion), moves to a discussion of globalisation, and then focuses the investigation more specifically through the use of case studies. The cases expose the student to various disciplinar...
River and Coastal Engineering
This book deals with important topics of current interest, such as climate change, floods, drought, and hydrological extremes. The impact of climate change on water resources is drawing worldwide attention in these days; water resources in many countries are already stressed and climate change along with burgeoning population, rising standard of living, and increasing demand are adding to the stress. Further, river basins are becoming less resilient to climatic vagaries. Fundamental to addressing these issues is hydrological modelling which is covered in these books. Further, integrated water resources management is vital to ensure water and food security. Integral to the management is groundwater and solute transport. The books encompass tools that will be useful to mitigate the adverse consequences of natural disasters. This book is useful for those working in river and coastal engineering. River Engineering is important for fluvial hydraulics, sediment transport, morphometry, desilting, trap efficiency, silting and desilting process. Coastal engineering includes storm surge forecast, optimization of harbour, wave modelling, and shoreline changes.
Mathematical Modeling, Computational Intelligence Techniques and Renewable Energy
This book presents new knowledge and recent developments in all aspects of computational techniques, mathematical modeling, energy systems, applications of fuzzy sets and intelligent computing. The book is a collection of best selected research papers presented at the International Conference on “Mathematical Modeling, Computational Intelligence Techniques and Renewable Energy,” organized by the Department of Mathematics, Pandit Deendayal Petroleum University, in association with Forum for Interdisciplinary Mathematics, Institution of Engineers (IEI) – Gujarat and Computer Society of India (CSI) – Ahmedabad. The book provides innovative works of researchers, academicians and students in the area of interdisciplinary mathematics, statistics, computational intelligence and renewable energy.
Gender in South Asia And Beyond
For over 40 years, Professor Patricia Jeffery, Professor Emerita in Sociology, University of Edinburgh, carried out pioneering research, individually and in partnership with her colleagues. The range of subjects she covered includes gender and development, especially childbearing, women’s reproductive rights, social demography in South Asia, Indian society, gender and communal politics, education and the reproduction of inequality; race and ethnicity. Her books, including Frogs in a Well: Indian Women in Purdah (1979) and Appropriating Gender: Women’s Activism, Politicized Religion and the State in South Asia (edited with Amrita Basu, 1998) inspired peers and future scholars alike. In this volume, we bring together a range of new research that is inspired by and intersects with Professor Jeffery’s work. The chapters offer new data, refreshing insights and original analysis on subjects of contemporary importance in the fields of gender, health, marginalization and development.
Mathematical and Computational Intelligence to Socio-scientific Analytics and Applications
This book presents a collection of selected papers presented at the 22nd FAI International Conference on Mathematical, Computational Intelligence and Engineering Approaches to Healthcare, Business and Tourism Analytics (FAI-ICMCIE 2020), held at American College, Madurai, India, from 20–22 December 2020. This book discusses advanced mathematical concepts and computational intelligence approaches for: medical diagnostic approach in cardiac diseases, nano topology in medical diseases, stability of indicators in assessing business development, AI-guided paradigmatic competence in science and spirituality integration, neural network-TOPSIS analytics in hotel service quality, itinerary planning destination ranking tourism analytics, molecular modeling and docking simulation for unraveling medicinal properties, value-oriented approach on commercial banks security, Brownian motion in shares of the bank, internet of things linking to social media and e-commerce, and more, which are discussed by using fuzzy analytics, nano-topology, statistical, TOPSIS and neural network tools.
Libertatem Magazine
The Libertatem Magazine is a Law Magazine launched by The Law Brigade, a startup of two students from Institute of Law, Nirma University, Ahmedabad; Ankita Ranawat & Rahul Ranjan. The Group's name, "The Law Brigade" should be taken as a fire brigade which reaches where there is fire. The fire which is present in the law students and members of the legal arena. Libertatem is a latin word meaning a sense of freedom of expression. It channelizes this expression of the person who has something to express irrespective of the fact that what the CV of that person says, which is given a very high value and everybody is in a rat race to build it. It provides a platform to people who have something to...
Amrita Pritam
Amrita Pritam was a prominent Punjabi poet, novelist, and essayist who captured the realities of everyday life in the India of the early 1900s India and presented the unique voices of the women of the Indian subcontinent. This book offers a comprehensive understanding of the writer’s work by situating it in the context of not just Punjabi literature but Indian literature, while showcasing their continued relevance in contemporary times. With a career spanning over six decades, she Pritam produced over 100 books of poetry, fiction, biographies, essays, a collection of Punjabi folk songs and an autobiography that were all translated into several Indian and foreign languages. This volume incl...
Indian folk Painting And Fine Art
Indian folk artistry is uniquely recognized all over the world not only for rich aesthetics but also as indicators of age-old habitual belief. They comprise of tacit knowledge that is protected by passing on through generations. Apart from the act of customary decorations on ephemeral foundations, Indian painters-storytellers cum singers perennially depict life and death, victory and defeat, good and evil, in the regional folk paintings. The roving minstrels for over two thousand years have disseminated moral values through their painted scrolls and performance to the rural society that has equally reached past the overseas audiences. By counting contemporary folk art only as a community practice that strictly adheres to a tradition, may undermine the folk artist as a creative individual who significantly contributes to the tradition to keep it alive. The present Book shifts its focus from the conventional ethnographic approach and instead, probes into the responsiveness of present day folk artists who use their freedom of experimentation to move forward.
Biorefinery Production of Fuels and Platform Chemicals
BIOREFINERY PRODUCTION OF FUELS AND PLATFORM CHEMICALS From the selection and pretreatment of raw materials to design of reactors, methods of conversion, selection of process parameters, optimization, and production of various types of biofuels to the industrial applications for the technology, this is the most up-to-date and comprehensive coverage of liquid biofuels for engineers and students. Massive use of fossil-based fuels not only create environmental pollution, but these sources are already diminishing. Waste biomass can aid in the production of biobased energy and chemicals. This book is a complete collection of chapters on biofuel and biochemical production presented in a sustainabl...
