The automobile manufacturers aspire to improve the engine design and enhance its life apart from optimizing the energy usage in the actual engine operation. A major concern at the time of the initial start up at the low loads and speed conditions is the wear of an engine. A significant proportion of the engine life gets compromised due to the adhesive engine start up wear. The start up wear does not exist during the normal engine operation due to the fully established elastohydrodynamic lubricating (EHL) film between the interacting surfaces of the piston assembly and the cylinder liner at the high loads, speeds and the optimum piston-to-bore radial clearances. Such arrangements do not exist in a few initial engine start up cycles. Resultantly, the piston skirts and the 1 st compression ring establish a physical contact with the liner and adhesive wear occurs. This PhD research work numerically models the lubrication of the piston skirts and the 1 st compression ring in the initial engine start up. The 2-D hydrodynamic and EHL models of the piston skirts are developed in the initial engine start up conditions. The initial engine start up conditions cover the secondary transverse piston displacements and the different start up speeds, radial clearances & viscosity-grades of an engine lubricant. The realistic aspects include the isothermal & adiabatic conditions, the steady-state and transient conditions, the Newtonian and non-Newtonian engine lubricant behavior, the surface roughness factors of the piston skirts and the liner. These aspects are modeled, studied and analyzed separately as part of the hydrodynamic and EHL models of the skirts. The 1-D and the 2-D steady-state isothermal Newtonian lubrication models of 1 st compression ring are developed as applicable to the initial engine start up conditions. The simulation analysis are studied to optimize the different realistic aspects/characteristics in an effort to reduce the engine start up wear.

سید مرتضیٰ علی دہلوی

سید مرتضی علی دہلوی
اسی مہینہ دارالمصنفین کے ایک پرانے مخلص سید مرتضی علی صاحب دہلوی نے انتقال کیا، وہ کوئی مشہور آدمی نہ تھے، مگر اپنے اوصاف کے لحاظ سے بڑے انسان تھے، دہلی کے ایک قدیم اور اونچے خاندان سے تعلق رکھتے تھے، نواب علی حسن خاں مرحوم کے داماد تھے، دارالمصنفین کے بڑے ہمدرد ہواخواہ اور اس کی مجلس انتظامیہ کے رکن تھے، وہ جدید تعلیم یافتہ تھے، ابھی تھوڑے دن ہوئے مرکزی حکومت کے ایک بڑے عہدے سے ریٹائر ہوئے تھے لیکن بڑے دیندار اور اخلاق و شرافت کا مجسم پیکر تھے، جامع مسجد کے قریب ہی مکان تھا، اکثر نمازیں جامع مسجد میں ادا کرتے تھے، بڑے مخیر خلیق اور مہمان نواز تھے، ان کا گھر مستقل کارواں سرا تھا، بعض بعض مہمان مہینوں بلکہ برسوں مقیم رہتے تھے اور وہ بڑی خندہ پیشانی سے میزبانی کے فرائض انجام دیتے تھے، قومی و ملی اداروں اور اس کے کارکنوں سے خاص تعلق رکھتے تھے، دارالمصنفین سے ان کو بڑا مخلصانہ تعلق تھا، ہر وقت اس کی خدمت کے لیے کمربستہ رہتے تھے، غرض وہ اپنے اخلاق و سیرت میں قدیم تہذیب شرافت کا نمونہ تھے، اﷲ تعالیٰ ان کی نیکیوں کے طفیل میں ان کی مغفرت فرمائے۔ (شاہ معین الدین ندوی، جولائی ۱۹۵۶ء)

 

أحمد شوقي: شاعر الأمراء في القرن الرابع عشر

Although the contribution of Ahmad Shoq┘ to Arabic literature, particularly to its poetry which is praised everywhere, which made him an authority and gained him the honor, yet there is a great contradiction between his fames and opposition; the fames accept him as lord of the poets while the opposition deny this status and title him as the poet of the lords. These contradictions made an unsatisfactory condition amongst the scholars about his personality and the contributions he added. The question is that; how much reality has the opinion of the denier? This article provides the evidences taken from his poetry and proves the realities about the blames raised by the opposition, and then solves the matter. It also makes a reader convinced to accept it, but not to forget the contribution made by this great poet of a great language with a huge literature.

An Efficient, Reliable and Secure Core-Assisted Multicast Routing Protocol for Mobile Ad-Hoc Network

Mobile Ad hoc Network (MANET) is a collection of mobile nodes that are connected wirelessly forming random topology through decentralised administration. In MANETs, multicasting is an important mechanism which can increase the network efficiency and reliability by sending multiple copies to a group of nodes in a single transmission without using several unicast transmissions. Multicast routing can be classified into tree based and mesh based multicasting. Mesh based protocols offer path redundancy for packets to move from senders to receivers. Thus, they offer greater resilience to link breakages than tree based protocols which offer only a single path from senders to receivers. Mesh based protocols have higher packet delivery ratios on the cost of higher overhead due to maintaining redundant paths. Receiver initiated mesh based multicast routing is the improved version having reliability and reduced overhead because the receivers only report the missing packets to the sender as compared to the sender initiated approach where each successful packet is reported to the sender. Receiver initiated mesh based multicast routing strongly relies on proper selection of a core node. The existing schemes suffer from various problems. First, the core selection process is not sophisticated that usually selects core in a manner that may decrease core lifetime and deteriorate network performance in the form of frequent core failures. Second, the existing schemes cause too much delay for core re-selection(s) process. The performance becomes worse in situations where frequent core failures occur and hence, the protocols may become unsuitable for delay sensitive applications. Finally, a malicious node may try to illegitimately become selected as core node (for some malicious purposes) or selfishly evade the core election process to save its resources. To solve the above issues, we propose an efficient, reliable and secure core assisted multicast Adhoc routing protocol (ERASCA) in which an efficient/stable core is selected based on parameters like battery capacity and location in a group. The selection of a stable core within the group minimizes the core failure scenario, thereby minimizes the flooding for finding another core and will decrease the overhead. To minimize delay and data collection process during core election after failures, we introduce the concept of mirror core in a group; hence, after the failure of the core the mirror core will take the responsibility as the main core without data collection process and delay and hence increases the overall reliability. To prevent the malicious/selfish nodes from illegitimately become core or evade the process of being a core node for saving resources, a iv malicious/selfish receiver is detected and discarded within the mesh by estimating their battery capacity. To collect the data for the estimation of battery capacity, we propose an overhearing based approach. To further protect the data from malicious/selfish receiver and to preserve the integrity of data, a packet authentication process is used. The proposed protocol is evaluated in NS-2 and compared against PUMA and MAODV which are the state of the art protocols in mesh based and tree based multicasting respectively. We compare these protocols under different metrics, such as mobility, number of senders, number of receivers, interface queue length and simulation area. According to the simulation results, ERASCA and ERASCA-MC attains higher packet delivery ratios and throughput than PUMA and MAODV, while incurring far less overhead, delay and energy consumption because of the efficient core election and with the introduction of the mirror core. To secure the core election process from malicious and selfish receivers, multiple simulations in NS-2 are performed in the presence and absence of detection technique. Simulation proves that in the presence of detection technique, core election will be more secured with improved performance in PDF, overhead, throughput and energy utilization.
