4 Effects of Annealing Temperature and Ag3Sn Intermetallic Compound Particles on the Electrical Resistivity of Sn/Ag Eutectic Material, Shakib Alsowidy* and Belqees Alasry This work aims to study a new lead-free solder alloy as a substitute for lead-tin alloys in order to solve the problem of protecting human health. The effect of thermal aging on the electri- cal resistivity of a eutectic Sn-3.5wt%Ag lead-free solder alloy has been investigated. The sam- ples have been aged at the temperature range of 100°C - 160°C. During aging, the precipitation behavior has been followed by the electrical resistivity measurements. The resistivity change of Sn-3.5wt%Ag eutectic alloy rises to a maximum value and then decreases to a constant value at each aging temperature. The maximum value increases as aging temperature increased. The little reduction in resistivity after the maximum value is due to the coalescence and growth of precipitates and then decreasing in the scattering effect to the electrons. Microstructural char- acterizations using scanning electron microscope (SEM) were conducted to follow in detail the precipitation behavior. |

8 Corrected Physics of Deactivation of Gyroscopic Inertial Torques, Ryspek Usubamatov* The main property of gyroscopic devices is maintaining the axis of a spinning rotor in space. All gyroscopes manifest the action of the inertial torques and motions which mathematical models based on the principle of the mechanical energy conservation. New studies show the external force to the spinning rotor generates the net of the interrelated inertial torques acting around axes of its rotation. The four centrifugal, two Coriolis torques and two torques of the change in the angular momentum are looped around two axes and express the resistance and precession torques of the spinning rotor. Blocking of the gyroscope precessed motion leads to the vanishing of inertial torques around two axes except the precessed torque-generated by the center mass of the spinning rotor. |

42 The Triumph of Elementary Physics and Engineering in Cosmology, Francis M Sanchez* The I.S. of units implies a damaging separation between engineers and theoreticians. In particular, the electrical units are useless. Thus, in cosmology, we must first calculate what distance corresponds to three universal constants excluding the speed of light c, too slow to ensure cosmic coherence. In the standard triplet G, c, ħ, which defines mass, length and Planck time (the last two constituting the “Planck wall”), the first choice is to replace c with the average mass of the 3 main particles of physics atomic (electron, proton, neutron), and calculate a length, since it is what is really measured in the Hubble-Lemaître law. This gives the half of 13.8 billion light-years (see French wikipedia, “analyse dimensionnelle”). This invariable length, calculated in the first three minutes of the sabbatical year 1997 (Univ. Paris 11), is now identified (2023) not only with the Hubble radius, directly measured, but also with the product by c of the time characteristic of standard cosmology, which cannot there- fore be considered no more as the “age” of the Universe, but as the time constant of exponential recession, the unique parameter of steady-state cosmology, so which has also predicted the recession acceleration. |

43 A Study on The Financial Performance of The South Indian Bank, Prasad M and Bijin Philip* Every country’s financial system relies on the banking sector. It has an impact on the economy of the country by providing loans, infrastructure, and investment. The banking sector is critical to any country’s growth and expansion. Hence this study focuses on the performance assess- ment of the new-generation South Indian Bank. The financial performance analysis of South Indian Bank involves an evaluation of the Bank’s financial health, profitability, and efficiency. This analysis provides valuable insights into the Bank’s overall performance and ability to gen- erate sustainable returns for its stakeholders. The Bank’s financial performance is evaluated using various financial ratios and indicators, such as Credit- deposit ratio, Investment-deposit Ratio, Cash- deposit ratio, Cost- income ratio, Deposit- cost ratio, Yield on advance ratio, Yield on investments ratio, fixed assets to net-worth Ratio, and other ratios. These ratios are calculated by analyzing the Bank’s income statement and balance sheet. The analysis reveals that South Indian Bank has maintained a stable financial position recently, with steady net interest income and profitability growth. The Bank’s asset quality has also improved over time, with a reduction in non-performing assets and an increase in the provision coverage ratio. The financial perfor- mance analysis of South Indian Bank suggests that the Bank has a stable financial position. Still, it needs to address specific areas of concern to sustain its growth and profitability in the future. |

44 IOT based Smart Food Grain Storage Monitoring System for Silos using Google Apps Script, Vallisree Sivathanu*, Mudumby Kalyan R Swami, ARL Padmaja and Samhitha V This work is carried out to develop a system to maintain silos in a safe and hygienic en- vironment to store food grains by monitoring them at regular intervals. We keep track of the parameters in the silo such as temperature, humidity, and carbon-di-oxide level concentrations. Values recorded at regular intervals of time help us analyze and visualize the data and observe the effects of these parameters on the food grains stored, while providing protection against pests, rodents and other organisms that can affect the yield. It has also been observed that while the grains are stored in such silos, due to the natural processes we have a lot of carbon-di-oxide concentration in the silos which has caused many fatal deaths of farmers. This issue has been mitigated in this work by implementing an emergency procedure which will be activated to open the grain bin and release the toxic gases from the silo. Through this work, we believe we can innovate in the grain storage space and solve the problems faced by the farmers. |

46 Bandwidth Enhancement Analysis of Rectangular Microstrip Patch Antenna for Various Substrates, P Arockia Michael Mercy* and KS Joseph Wilson The goal of this research is to enhance the bandwidth of a rectangular patch microstrip an- tenna. The bandwidth of the antenna is tuned by analyzing the various dielectric substrate mat erials, height & width, coaxial feed line, input and output impedances with effective dielectric constant s, and effective length. The suggested rectangular microstrip patch antenna operates at a frequency of 4.4 GHz. As a function of various frequencies, the VSWR, S11 and efficiency are analyzed. This analysis emphasizes that a low dielectric constant with an appropriate height of the dielectric substrate material for a microstrip patch antenna is utterly important in terms of enhancing bandwidth as well as a surface wave. This analysis gives better results for the RT- Turoid and attains a bandwidth of 56.65% at 4.4 GHz of resonance frequency. This high band- width makes it useful in many wideband applications. |

48 The Performance Analysis of Low Latency Queueing Scheduling Algorithm for MANETs, Mukakanya Abel Muwumba*, Odongo Steven Eyobu and John Ngubiri Delay is a major Quality of Service (QoS) metric in Mission Critical Applications and some of these include health, vehicle and inspection safety applications. Some of such applications run on Mobile Ad Hoc Network (MANET) set ups which comes with transmission challenges arising from the size of traffic packets, environmental conditions and others. These challenges cause transmission delays, packet loss and hence a degraded network performance. In this article we study a Low Latency Queueing (LLQ) Scheduling Algorithm that makes use of three priority queues each transmitting voice, video and text packets. For the purposes of improving delay performance piggy backing off video packets on voice transmission is used. The LLQ model is de- veloped under two scenarios as follows: (I) when voice packet is delayed once and piggybacked with video on transmission. (II) when voice packet is delayed only if there is a partial video pack- et being transmitted. During scheduling of traffic voice packets are combined with the partial video packet. We investigate the performance variation of the LLQ in an M/G/1 queue under dif- ferent scenarios and under two service distributions namely: Exponential and Bounded Pareto (BP). The numerical results for the first scenario revealed that the video packets experienced the least conditional mean response time/conditional mean slowdown, followed by voice and least were text packets under LLQ Algorithm. While for second scenario, it was observed that voice packets experienced the least conditional mean response time/conditional mean slow- down, followed by video packets and then text packets in that order under LLQ Algorithm. |

52 Dispersion-Reinforced Asphalt Concrete in Road Construction, Krayushkina Kateryna* A wide variety of destructions and deformations of the pavement, such as rutting, waves, fatigue cracks, is shown by the experience of operating roads with asphalt concrete pavements. The actual service life of road structures is often much lower than the standard. The service life of asphalt concrete pavements of roads in Ukraine is 5-7 years instead of 12 before overhaul. Thus, a decrease in the service life generally leads to a deterioration in the transport and op- erational condition of the road network. Bitumen is one of the materials most susceptible to changes in asphalt mixes. In the world practice of road construction, the opinion is firmly established that a radical way to improve the quality of bitumen is their modification with polymers. However, the introduc- tion of polymer additives into petroleum bitumen is not always able to provide the required per- formance of asphalt concrete in terms of shear resistance at high positive temperatures, crack resistance at low temperatures, and fatigue life when exposed to long-term dynamic loads |
