 Abstract

Rainfall has direct impact on agricultural productivity. It controls the growth of crops in different seasons. south west and north east monsoon is the main natural determinant of Indian agriculture. In state of Assam, Paddy cultivation is the major agricultural activity which is controlled by the south west monsoon. Winter paddy cultivation is highly reliant upon the monsoon rainfall. It is therefore assumed that a good relationship exists between these two. Apart from this, value of paddy production depends on many factors, where monsoon rainfall is also one of them. In this paper, interdependency of monsoon rainfall and the value of winter paddy production are examined. A linear positive relation is found between the two. Data are collected from Statistical Handbook of Assam for the period of 2014. IBM-SPSS24 and MS-Excel are used to compile and analyze the data. Geo-spatial mapping is done to show the linear positive relations of the variables for the districts of Assam.

 Abstract

This paper explores the idea of narrative disruption and the ways in which postmodernism radically changes how archive materials are interpreted and used. Archives have historically been thought of as immobile, impartial storehouse of historical facts, used to record significant people, events, and linear stories. Postmodernist approaches, on the other hand, subvert traditional norms by highlighting the diversity of viewpoints, the significance of context, and the dynamic character of historical understanding. Postmodernism opposes the idea of a single, authoritative story by encouraging the inclusion of underrepresented perspectives and acknowledging that every interpretation is subjective. This paradigm change has significant ramifications for historical research, compelling historians to critically analyze the power dynamics and biases present in archival documents, as well as for archive practices, driving archivists to embrace more inclusive and flexible techniques. Postmodernism expands the meaning of archives to encompass digital records, oral histories, and other types of collective memory, hence enhancing the range of historical material that is deemed valuable. This essay contends that by emphasizing a variety of experiences that were previously underappreciated, postmodernist disruption of conventional narratives democratizes the field while also enhancing our understanding of history.

 Abstract

This paper delineates the cultural, political, and historical facets woven into Native American writing, also termed indigenous American literature. The genesis of a Native American renaissance during the 1960s reflected a pivotal transformation in American society that demanded recognition of Native culture and history, which had been persistently erased from the national consciousness. Before this movement, Native American contributions were largely ignored. When Native writers took up the pen, there was a resurgence of the rich oral traditions and culture, ravaged by centuries of oppression and cultural assault. Their stories countered the pervasive stereotypes that dominated mainstream American fiction and movies, which shaped public perception. These narratives challenged the Euro-centric assumptions that had permeated the land since the European conquest of the land. Native American writings offer resistance, strive for cultural recognition, identity formation, and a sense of belonging for the surviving members of diverse tribes. It grapples with the legacy of colonialism and the ongoing struggles for political rights, the social injustices experienced on reservations, and the ever-present questions of identity. For American society to authentically embody the democratic tenets upon which it purports to stand, its discourse must integrate the perspectives and exigencies of its primordial inhabitants. Through active engagements with Indigenous American literary expressions ample opportunities are opened up to American society to actualize its avowed democratic principles on both political and cultural fronts.

 Abstract

The present study is carried out in the Fazilka district of Punjab, India, which aimed to find out the level of scientific aptitude of the higher secondary level students. A descriptive survey method was adopted for the study. A total sample of 100 Higher Secondary School students of the Fazilka district were selected by random sampling. To know about scientific aptitude, Scientific Aptitude Test Battery (SATB) developed by Agarwal and Aurora (1986) was used. The results of the present study reveal that there is insignificant difference between male and female higher secondary school students in respect of their Scientific Aptitude and also there is insignificant difference between government and private higher secondary school students in respect of their Scientific Aptitude.

 Abstract

Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR) spectroscopy is a powerful tool for probing the paramagnetic properties of materials, providing valuable insights into their electronic structure and local environments. In this study, we investigate the paramagnetic behavior of Copper-Doped Glass with V2O3 as a dopant using EPR spectroscopy. The incorporation of copper ions into the glass matrix, coupled with the presence of V2O3, introduces paramagnetic centers that are of great interest for both fundamental research and potential technological applications. Our experimental setup involved careful sample preparation, precise control of temperature and magnetic field, and systematic data acquisition. EPR spectra were obtained, revealing distinctive paramagnetic signals attributed to the copper ions and their interactions with neighboring species. Through detailed spectral analysis, we elucidate the nature of these paramagnetic centers, providing valuable insights into their coordination environments and electron-spin interactions

 Abstract

The urgency to switch to renewable energy sources and improve their performance becomes important as traditional energy resources continue to run out. The design for linking a brushless DC motor with a modified rear axle for a regular car is shown in this paper. The Permanent Magnet Brushless DC motor runs with a broad spectrum of high torque capabilities and exhibits good efficiency. The most appropriate electric motor drive for electric vehicle applications is determined through a comparative analysis of the efficiency, weight, cost, cooling, maximum speed, fault tolerance, safety, and reliability of various motor drives, including switched reluctance motor, induction motor, permanent magnet brushless DC motor, and brushed DC motor. According to the study, permanent magnet brushless DC motor drives are the best option for electric vehicles. Automakers, governments, and customers are becoming more interested in electric vehicles (EVs) and hybrid EVs (HEVs) as environmental concerns rise. Researchers must create superior electric-drive systems since electric drives are the essential part of both EVs and HEVs. The overview of permanent-magnet brushless drives for EVs and HEVs in this research emphasises machine topologies, drive operations, and control approaches.
