AbstractLayered ice has been used to investigate the initiation of fabrics in shear zones where there is preservation of a refolded layering The fabrics were measured using an apparatus that acquires pixel-based images that illustrate the variation of c-axis orientation within and between grains. In the centre of the shear zones there is dynamic recrystallization with the production of an asymmetric two-maxima fabric. The way dynamic recrystallization modifies the inherited folds and microstructure suggests that there is little effect of inheritance from a precursor grain microstructure or fabric No obvious evidence has been found for the occurrence of sub-grains, which implies that the role of sub-grain rotation is minimal or is obliterated by the recrystallization process. The final c-axis pattern is asymmetric with respect to the direction of shortening, with a strong maximum at ~5° to the pole of the shear zone, and a sense of asymmetry in the direction of the shear, and a secondary maximum inclined at ~45° to the plane of shearing. Distinct sets of nearest-neighbour c-axis distributions, namely, intermediate-angle (10–25°), high-angle (50–65°) and very high-angle (120–150°), suggest there may be special grain-boundary relationships.

The mechanism of grain refinement in an Al-5.4Mg-0.4Mn-0.2Sc-0.09Zr alloy subjected to equal-channel angular pressing (ECAP) at 300°C through route BC is considered. It was shown that the formation of geometrically necessary boundaries (GNB) aligned with a {111} plane at ε≤1 initiates the occurrence of continuous dynamic recrystallization (CDRX). Upon further strain the GNBs transform to low-to-moderate angle planar boundaries that produces lamellar structure. In the strain interval 2-4, 3D arrays of planar boundaries evolve due to inducing the formation of 2nd order and higher orders families of GNBs in new {111} planes. GNBs gradually convert to high-angle boundaries (HAB) with strain. A uniform recrystallized structure is produced at a true strain of ∼8. The role of slip concentration and shearing patterns in the formation of GNBs is discussed.

THE PROPERTY to be discussed is a mixed sheep and cropping unit, situated ei ht a miles east of Ashburton and midway between the Ra aia and the Ashburton rivers. Average annual rainfall is 27 in., evenly spread, but there is very high summer evaporation and therefore frequent droughts. On average, the soil is below wilting point for 40 to 50 days each summer. Winters are cold with the soil temperature being below 48°F for about four months each year. The soil is a Lismore stony silt loam averaging 9 in. in depth over gravel.

Vasavaleha is one of the best medicine given for respiratory diseases. Corona viruses typically affect the respiratory system, causing symptoms such as coughing, fever and shortness of breath. It also affects host immune system of human body. Spreading rate of this disease is very high. Whole world is seeking for the treatment which can uproots this diseases. There in no vaccine available till date against this pandemic disease. Ayurveda mainly focuses on prevention of diseases alongwith its total cure. Rajyakshma Vyadhi is MadhyamMarga Roga as per Ayurveda. It shows many symptoms such as Kasa, Shwasa etc. By overall view of Covid 19, shows its resemblance with Rajyakshma Vyadhi described in Ayurveda. Vasavaleha is a Kalpa which is described in Rogadhikara of Rajyakshma. It shows Kasahara, Shwashara properties. It consists of Vasa, Pipalli, Madhu and Goghrita. These components shows actions like bronchodilation, antitussive effect and many more other actions. Pipalli shows important Rasayana effect. So in present review, we have tried to focus on role of Vasavaleha in the management of Covid 19. This can be used as preventive as well as adjuvant medication in treating Covid 19. There is need of further clinical research to rule of exact action of Vasavaleha against Covid 19.

Highly sinter-active powders of RE2O3 [rare earth (RE) = Gd, Eu, Dy] have been prepared using the corresponding metal nitrates as the oxidants, and glycine and citric acid as the fuels. Two different oxidant-to-fuel ratios, namely stoichiometric ratio and fuel-deficient ratio were used to explore the possibility of preparing different crystallographic modifications. By a careful control of oxidant-to-fuel ratio, nanocrystalline Eu2O3 and Gd2O3 could be prepared in cubic (C-type) as well as monoclinic (B-type) modifications. However, the high-temperature monoclinic modification could not be obtained for Dy2O3 due to a very high C-to-B-type phase transition temperature. The crystallite size, surface area, and sintering behavior were also studied for powders prepared using different oxidant-to-fuel ratios, and the results showed a remarkable correlation between different fuel contents and powder properties. Some of these powders resulted in pellets of nearly theoretical density. The sintered microstructure was studied by scanning electron microscopy.
