Major Project

This study was a part of the major project from ICSSR, New Delhi and it was aimed to ascertain the impact of cultural variation, chronological age and marital circumstances on life satisfaction. It was contended that : 1- life satisfaction and happiness would be affected by variation in culture. 2- young and old participants would differ in relation to their scores on life satisfaction. 3- discrepancy in the scores of life satisfaction would be appeared in women living with their husbands and living far from husband. Two hundred and forty women ranging between 25-60 years served as participants and arranged according to the requirements of 3*2*2 factorial design with three types of cultures (Bhotia, Buxa, General Kumauni) X two levels of chronological age (25-30 years and 55-60 years) X two types of marital circumstances (wives living with husbands) and wives living far from the husbands) i.e; 20 participants per cell. Measures of life satisfaction were used to get the indices of life satisfaction in participants. Data analysis was made by analysis of variance and correlation. It was noted that all independent variables laid their impact as main effect and interaction mode. Also, correlation coefficients showed close knit. Findings were discussed in terms of cultural variation, chronological age and marital circumstances as effectors of life satisfaction. At last, need of intervention programs to raise the mental faculty of vulnerable people was also discussed.

The Impact

The present research examines the social value attributed to endorsing the belief in a just world for self (BJW-S) and for others (BJW-O) in a Western society. We conducted four studies in which we asked participants to assess a target who endorsed BJW-S vs. BJW-O either strongly or weakly. Results showed that endorsement of BJW-S was socially valued and had a greater effect on social utility judgments than it did on social desirability judgments. In contrast, the main effect of endorsement of BJW-O was to reduce the target’s social desirability. The results also showed that the effect of BJW-S on social utility is mediated by the target’s perceived individualism, whereas the effect of BJW-S and BJW-O on social desirability is mediated by the target’s perceived collectivism.

The Impact

The paper considers techniques to develop a mathematical model using a method of «parallel compressors». The model is intended to estimate the impact of the air inlet distortion on the primary parameters of the aero-engine.  The paper presents rated estimation results in the context of twin spool turbofan design for two typical cruiser modes of flight of the supersonic passenger jet. In estimation the base values σbase and the average values of the inlet ram recovery σave remained invariable. Thus, parametrical calculations were performed for each chosen relative value of the area of low-pressure region.The paper shows that an impact degree of the inlet distortion on the engine thrust for two modes under consideration is essentially different. In other words, if in the subsonic mode the impact assessment can be confined only to taking into account the influence of decreasing average values of the inlet total pressure, the use of such an assumption in the supersonic cruiser mode may result in considerable errors.With invariable values of the pressure recovery factor at the engine intake, which correspond to the speed of flight for a typical air inlet of external compression σbase, and average value σave, a parameter Δσuneven  has the main effect on the engine thrust, and degree of this effect essentially depends on a difference between σave and σbase values.
