Ability of Metallic Materials to Resist Surface Damage Induced by High-temperature Action of Air or other Gaseous Mediums
Abstract: The features of the oxide layer scale that forms on the metal's surface and limits gas penetration into the metal, limiting the growth of gaseous corrosion, influence a metal's or alloy's oxidation resistance in an oxidising atmosphere. The rise in weight of sample being tested (due to oxygen uptake by the metal) or even the weight loss after removing the scale from the sample's surface, related to a unit surface …

Photon activated tunneling in ABO3 type Multiferroic domain wall
Abstract: We present photon assisted tunneling in multiferroics of type ABO3. It is seen that the interactions of photons with this analytic molecule accelerate the electron transmissions. It is clarified that the existence of ferromagnetic, ferroelectric, and piezoelectric in multiferroic materials are consequence of magnetic anisotropy, dipole segregation and strain. The effect of photon is therefore, to disassemble existing electronic states or assemblesto form new electronic states by enhancing its transmission …

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 …
