"The State of Rural Vulnerability Report" provides a peek into vulnerabilities of rural households in India through a collaborative knowledge building exercise with a coalition of civil society organization. With illustrative graphs and insights from the ground, the book sheds light on the multifaceted challenges faced by these communities, including income insecurity, agricultural resource scarcity, and gender disparities. It explores the impact of the pandemic on women, highlighting their increased burden of unpaid care work, job losses, and vulnerability to domestic violence. The book also examines the effectiveness of government social welfare schemes in addressing these vulnerabilities and offers insights into the need for improved implementation and support. With its compelling narratives and data-driven analysis, "The State of Rural Vulnerability Report" provides a comprehensive understanding of the challenges faced by rural communities and offers valuable insights into building resilience in the face of adversity.
Sodium-ion batteries are likely to be the next-generation power sources. They offer higher safety than lithium-ion batteries and, most important, sodium is available in unlimited abundance. The book covers the fundamental principles and applications of sodium-ion batteries and reports experimental work on the use of electrolytes and different electrode materials, such as silicon, carbon, conducting polymers, and Mn- and Sn-based materials. Also discussed are state-of-the-art, future prospects and challenges in sodium-ion battery technology. Keywords: Sodium-Ion Batteries, Lithium-Ion Batteries, Carbon Nanofibers, Conducting Polymers, Electrode Materials, Electrolytes, Graphene, Carbon Anodes, Magnetic Nanomaterials, Mn-based Materials, Sn-based Materials, Na-O2 Batteries, NASICON Electrodes, Organic Electrodes, Polyacetylene, Polyaniline, Polyphenylene, Redox Mediators, Reversible Capacity, Singlet Oxygen, Superoxide Stability.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 4th International Conference on Recent Developments in Science, Engineering and Technology, REDSET 2017, held in Gurgaon, India, in October 2017. The 66 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 329 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on big data analysis, data centric programming, next generation computing, social and web analytics, security in data science analytics.
Life has many special moments. The ones spent with friends are extra special. This book attempts to capture a few of those stories and funny incidents in a raw form as much as possible. At the institute, I was like one of the many other students who knew only one thing: study hard and get good results. The institute helped build my potential. The formative days at the institute were the foundation of my journey ahead. In a way, I built my entire career on that foundation. While the professors contributed their bit in my grooming, a significant share came from my branch mates. I learnt many good traits from them during our days together in the institute. The relationship grew as we spent more...
The book covers different aspects of real-world applications of optimization algorithms. It provides insights from the Fourth International Conference on Harmony Search, Soft Computing and Applications held at BML Munjal University, Gurgaon, India on February 7–9, 2018. It consists of research articles on novel and newly proposed optimization algorithms; the theoretical study of nature-inspired optimization algorithms; numerically established results of nature-inspired optimization algorithms; and real-world applications of optimization algorithms and synthetic benchmarking of optimization algorithms.
