Blurred lines in Planning Legislations for Regional Planning in India
Abstract: In an era of rapid urbanisation, comprehensive regional development, rather than a focus on a single urban area, is critical for meeting future needs. However, most states lack clarity in their Town and Country Planning legislation about the scope of regional planning and the power of regional planning authorities. This reflects a condition of uncertainty among the state's various planning authorities about their jurisdiction and responsibilities. The paper aims to …

Social Capital Based Resilience Framework for Communities to Disasters in Coastal Areas: A Literature Analysis and Case Study from Odisha Cyclone - FANI -2019
Abstract: The disaster victims received instant support, cooperation, and assistance from themselves. People in the communities assisted each other for survival before the government or any external help arrived. Social resilience, more than any other aspect of resilience, highlights the inherent contradiction between identity or persistence and transformation. In this research, we look at how this fear affects the development and application of social resilience in disasters. The reason of this …

Chemical Synthesis and Characterization of Polyaniline for Supercapacitors Application
Abstract: Various polyaniline (PANI) synthesis methods are reported in the literature, depending on the experimental parameters involved (T, t, doping, and mixing procedure). Herein, three chemical polymerization methods were used to synthesis PANI from aniline monomer: rapid oxidation (OR), controlled oxidation (CO), and interfacial oxidation (OI). The PANI was therefore deposited next by drop casting on a silicon (Si) substrate. X-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, and scanning electron microscopy were used to …
