Evaluation of Optimum Space through Level of Service (LOS) in Bus Terminals
Abstract: In India, currently, there are no guidelines available for terminal design based on passenger characteristics. Since human comfort is a primary design consideration in architectural design planning, design standards for passengers must be based on a relative scale to provide the desired design environment anthropometrically. The need for this research is to help resolve the crowding problems faced by passengers due to lack of design guidelines and passenger movement & …

FIRE PERFORMANCE OF PLYWOOD TREATED WITH CHEMICAL SURFACE BARRIER
Abstract: Generally wood and wood based materials are combustible, easily ignitable, can propagate heat and flame spread, produce dense smoke in fires. These materials can be used in buildings as lining materials in spite of their inferior behavior in fire. To render them flame retardant, we studied & prepared a new chemical surface barrier which not only improves the flame retardancy of these materials but also makes them fire safe. The …

The Psychological Effect of Landscape Architecture on the Student’s Academic Performance
Abstract: Landscape architecture is the outline of outside open areas, points of interest, and structures to accomplish natural, social-behavioral, or stylish results. When Fredrick Olmsted generated the field of landscape architecture in the late 1800's, he strongly stated that landscape added a significant conception of beauty. Consequently, Architects nowadays often engage elements of greenery in order to enhance the overall design that they've made. Also, latest landscape projects have included social …

Redox system initiated improved low-temperature colouration of real silk with metal-complex dyes for energy conservation
Abstract: Silk has always been the symbol of royalty due to its lustrous appearance and peach like softness. It can be dyed in bright shades with the available natural and many synthetic dyestuffs. The slight cationic character of silk makes it possible to be dyed with anionic synthetic dyes such as acid, metal complex, reactive and selected direct dyes. The main objective of colouration of a textile fibre should be to …

Analysis of Vapour-Liquid Equilibrium Behaviour of Cryogenic Hydrogen-Deuterium Mixtures Using Cubic Equation of State-based Method
Abstract: A comparative analysis of the vapour liquid equilibrium behaviour of the cryogenic hydrogen-deuterium system calculated under the assumption of an ideal solution using pure component vapour pressure data versus that of a real solution using Peng-Robinson cubic equation of state has been presented in this work. It is found that assumption of ideal solution leads to over prediction of the relative volatilities by 14% to 57% depending on the mixture …
