Preface Dear Reader Welcome to 'Bogie Number 2003', This novel is about a story of two generations post independence. A set of college students pursuing Tourism as their main subject, are on an educational tour alongwith their professors, in the year 1976. For the journey a railway bogie has been booked, which was in possession for the entire trip. The students in this trip belong to the younger generation and their professors, railway officials, police excise employees etc. belong to the older generations. The newly found independence was soon converted in to waywardness. Corruption was breading in polities had slowly set in roots in all the section of the society. The second generation has also become a part of it. This novel is about this particular generation which is engulfed in corruption. Kind of this era were pampered like royal kids, quite contrary to several siblings in the older families. The grandparents considered these youngsters, spoilt outrightly. This so called modern parents tool pride in providing material comforts to gets over their own feeling of want, owing to limited resources they had lived with. This novel reveals these two generation of such political gamut where those in power started devouring more than protecting the society. Minting money with fraudulent practices, became a norm. People were more influences by cine stars than the real heroes like Swami Vivekanand, Subhash Chandra Bose, Bhagat Singh or Chandra Shekhar Azad to name a few. Good old simplicity and moral values were robbed by greed and pretension. This engrossing story will bring you good impressions and contradictious of the two generations interwoven with subtle humour and satire. I am thankful to Dr. Neelam Verma, a well known poet and a cardiologist for translating my novel. My sincere thanks to Prof. Purabi Panwar, a scholar of English language and a renowned author who has given her views in the 'FOREWORD'. I would like to express my gratitude to Dr. Sanjeev Kumar, the publisher and a literary figure, the owner of 'India Net Books'. Thanks to English writer and scholar Ms. Sunita Chandra for her help at every step. Enjoy your journey in 'Bogie number 2003'

A smart civil structure integrates smart materials, sensors, actuators, signal processors, communication networks, power sources, diagonal strategies, control strategies, repair strategies, and life-cycle management strategies. It should function optimally and safely in its environment and maintain structural integrity during strong winds, severe earthquakes, and other extreme events. This book extends from the fundamentals to the state-of-the-art. It covers the elements of smart civil structures, their integration, and their functions. The elements consist of smart materials, sensors, control devices, signal processors, and communication networks. Integration refers to multi-scale modelling and model updating, multi-type sensor placement, control theory, and collective placement of control devices and sensors. And the functions include structural health monitoring, structural vibration control, structural self-repairing, and structural energy harvesting, with emphasis on their synthesis to form truly smart civil structures. It suits civil engineering students, professionals, and researchers with its blend of principles and practice.
Long span suspension bridges cost billions. In recent decades, structural health monitoring systems have been developed to measure the loading environment and responses of these bridges in order to assess serviceability and safety while tracking the symptoms of operational incidents and potential damage. This helps ensure the bridge functions prope
This volume contains 30 original pen-and-ink and pencil drawings sprinkled throughout the chapters. This novel takes place in 18th century St. Andrews, Scotland, the birthplace of golf. It's about a father-son relationship, how they bond together.
Despite the apparently distinct differences between the disciplines of ergonomics and rehabilitation, they deal with the same issues, although at different ends of the spectrum. Keeping this in mind, Ergonomics for Rehabilitation Professionals explores their philosophies and goals, their parallel, divergent, and complementary aspects. It traces the
