Optimisation of Biogas Production using NanotechnologyYogeshIJTSRD
Nanotechnology largely affects a more extensive scope of biotechnological, pharmacological and unadulterated innovative applications. In this paper we would be covering the use of nanotechnology in the production as well as optimisation of biogas. This paper clearly shows the potential and relationship between the both – biogas production and nanotechnology via various feedstock characterisation studies which was done during this paper. The aim of this paper is to showcase how these both technologies complement each other and how nanotechnology is applied in feedstock and convert it to biogas. Our study shows how nanotechnology is applied on pressmud and gas production is enhanced at laboratory level. The digestion of pressmud with nanomaterials were studied. Our study clearly indicates that the biogas production can surely be enhanced in case of treating pressmud by using magnetite nanoparticles which gives higher methane yields compared to normal digestion without nanoparticles. This study not only confirms the enhanced biogas generation from pressmud but also confirms that on other biodegradable material the same principle can be applied and gas production can be enhanced. Our study surely will be an important tool for implementing of nanotechnology in biogas research and enhanced production wherever the press mud is available.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

Major pioneering efforts in wood technology ended at the close of
World War II. One reason was that aluminum alloy technology
evolved quickly in response to the needs of modern aircraft. This
was compounded by wood's past image, traditions, limitations, and
folklore. However, the main reason wood lost favor was related to
maintenance. Lack of a viable moisture protection system for a
completed structure was at the heart of the problem. All wooden
structures need some reasonable moisture stability to prevent
internal stressing and fungus attack.
• Lack of uniform, consistent wood physical properties
• Moisture management
• Woodworking required a high degree of skill that took a long
apprenticeship to acquire.
The De Havilland Aircraft Company of Great Britain developed a unique stressed-skin monocoque
shell design that was the culmination of 23 years of experience in wooden aircraft. The chief structural
feature of this design was a wood composite sandwich of birch veneers over a unidirectional balsa
core. The design for De Havilland's Mosquito bomber using this advanced structural concept was
conceived in 1939. This extremely successful airplane was in full-scale production in 1941 and saw
much service in World War II. This two-man-crew wooden bomber, one of the most advanced aircraft
of its day, had a level flight speed of over 400 mph and was capable of carrying a 3000-1b bomb load.
Operating at fighter speed without armament, it had a 1500-mile range.
Metals quickly gained favor as a safer material for most larger
and faster aircraft. Metals not only possessed more consistent
properties but could be fabricated with a high degree of reliability
by a semiskilled work force.
41. Composites reinforced with short biofibers are shown in Figure 1; it is
possible to see that the biofibers are well dispersed, since they do not
show agglomerates or separated phases, and the biofibers are
contained in the entire matrix, this is apparent by the homogenous
distribution. In addition the appropriate integration of chitosan and
starch is demonstrated by a uniform color in the matrix.
Figure 2 shows the composites reinforced with ground rachis; it is
possible to observe also that in these composites a good distribution
of reinforcement was achieved. In both cases the suitable dispersion
is due to the polysaccharide matrix and keratin which has a high
degree of compatibility, besides the size of the reinforcements
enables good embedding without fiber entanglements or rachis
agglomerates.
42. The recycling of PVB is hampered by the elimination of plasticizer and/or degradation during the recycling process.
Degradation generates new functional groups of the polymer, which, in addition to variations in composition caused by the
loss of plasticizer, can cause deterioration of the polymer properties

Due to diffusion, air moves from high to low pressure. If atmospheric pressure is low, air (which contains water) will move out of the plant and into the atmosphere, hence increasing transpiration. Plants will lose water at a faster rate than at a higher atmospheric
pressure.

69. “What really pays off for most of the common
purposes of life is not carbon fibres, but holes…
Holes are enormously cheaper, both in money
and in energy, than any conceivable form of high-
stiffness material. It would probably be better to
spend more time and money on developing
cellular or porous materials and less on boron or
carbon fibres.”

The bulk of a prairie grass plant, it turns out, exists out of sight, with anywhere from eight to fourteen feet of roots extending down into the earth. Why should we care? Besides being impressively large, these hidden root balls accomplish a lot—storing carbon, nourishing soil, increasing bioproductivity, and preventing erosion.
Unfortunately, these productive, perennial grasses (which live year round) are more rare than they once were.
