Textile composite materials are extensively used for high-tech applications like aerospace, ballistics, automotive, sports, etc. Ballistics are one of the hot research topics owing to the law and order issues around the globe. Conventionally the ballistic composite materials are produced by laminating 2D fabrics. The composite materials fabricated from 3D woven textile reinforcement are widely studied for different applications, but fewer products are being manufactured from them. This research focused to investigate the effect of fillers on the performance of 2D laminated composites and weaving parameters (stuffer yarn count and binding thread density) on the ballistic performance of 3D composite materials. Firstly, the composites were fabricated using silica nano-fillers to reinforce the Kevlar/epoxy composites. It was found that the addition of silica nano-fillers results in the formation of hybrid composite materials that offer improved flexural, tensile and impact properties. Optimum properties were obtained at a filler concentration of 8%. Limited data is available on the properties of 3D woven structures and the associated composite materials. Therefore, the subsequent studies investigated the effect of weaving parameters (stuffer yarn count and binding thread density) on the properties of 3D woven structures. An extensive experimentation was performed to understand the behavior of 3D woven structures using flax fibre, owing to the high cost of para-aramid. Novel hybrid 3D woven structures were produced, and it was seen that increase in stitching points in a 3D structure increase the mechanical properties and energy absorption of the fabric. Similarly, addition of stuffer yarn in the 3D woven structure leads to improved mechanical properties. Based on the performance of the developed composites, structures with better performance were reproduced with para-aramid to fabricate composite materials. The energy absorption behviour of these composite materials was investigated using an indigenously developed setup. The energy absorption was also modelled numerically for these composites to validate the experimental results. It was found that the woven structure with more stuffer yarns and high binding density exhibits better performance and can be potentially used to produce the ballistic vest.

پہلی بات

اپریل2009 میں راقم الحروف کی تجویز پر پنجاب لٹریری فورم کے زیرِ اہتمام شعرو شاعری کی ترویج کے سلسلے میں ایک اجلاس کے انعقاد میں خطۂ سیالکوٹ کے قدیم و جدید شعرا کو منظر عام پر لانے کا فیصلہ کیا گیا۔
اجلاس میں سیالکوٹ کے شعرا کے اسالیب بیان اور محاسن کلام کو بھی ادبی دنیا کے سامنے لانے کا فیصلہ کیا گیا تاکہ تنقید شعری کا دائرہ وسیع ہو۔
اجلاس میں غور وفکر کے بعد چھہتر شعرا کا انتخاب کیا گیا جن میں سے بعض ایسے بھی تھے جن کی سوانح یا کلام کے متعلق اب تک کم معلومات تھیں۔ فن شاعری کے سلسلے میں اس بیش بہا سرمائے کی حفاظت اور اشاعت کو ضروری سمجھ کر راقم نے پنجاب لٹریری فورم کے سامنے یہ تجویز پیش کی کہ خطہء سیالکوٹ کے اردو شعرا کا منتخب کلام فورم کی طرف سے شائع کیا جائے۔ فورم نے اس تجویز کو منظور کر لیا اور راقم الحروف نے اس کتاب کی اشاعت اپنے ذمہ لے لی۔
اس کتاب اور اس کتاب میں شامل مواد کے متعلق چند گذارشات ضروری ہیں: اول یہ کہ یہ کتاب اس موضوع پر کوئی تحقیقی مقالہ نہیں بلکہ ایک اجمالی خاکہ ہے۔ تفصیلی جائزہ نہیں بلکہ ایک مثالی کوشش ہے۔ لہٰذا سیالکوٹ میں اردو شاعری کی تاریخ کے ہر دور میں سے نمائندہ شعرا کو پیش کیا گیا ہے۔ ان کے علاوہ اور بھی شعرا ہیں جن کے نام بھی معلوم ہیں اور بعض کا کلام بھی موجود ہے، لیکن سر دست جو مواد اور معلومات راقم کے پاس موجود نہیں یا با آ سانی سے حاصل ہو سکیں، ان کو اس کتاب میں مرتب کیا گیا ہے۔
اس کتاب میں اورنگ زیب عالمگیر کے عہد سے لے کر 2010 تک کے خطہء سیالکوٹ کے شعرا کی شعری روایت کو بیان...

One Unit and Sardar Abdul Rashid Khan

Sardar Abdur Rashid Khan, Chief Minister of NWFP remained in office from 23 April 1953 to 18 July 1955. He belonged to the police cadre of the province and was inspector general at the time of his appointment. He was not a politician and never thought of becoming the chief minister of the province. Nevertheless he performed his duties well. It was during Sardar Rashid period that One Unit scheme was adopted. It integrated all the provinces and other units of West Pakistan into a single province. The plan was initially supported by him. Later on, as promises made to him were not fulfilled, he developed differences with the central authorities for which he was removed from his post. ______

Improving Resilience of Maize Against Water Deficit Stress Through Polyrhizobial Inoculation

To feed the ever increasing human population, there is need of the hour to enhance the crop yield. Different biotic and abiotic factors limit the plant productivity. Among them drought is most common. Drought seriously affects the plant physiology, biochemistry and yield. To ameliorate the effect of drought different ways can be adopted. The most economical and simplest way is the use of rhizobial inoculants. Thirty rhizobial stains were isolated from lentil chick pea and mungbean each. Drought tolerance assay was performed to check the ability of the stains to combat drought. Ten strains from each source were selected on the basis of their drought tolerance ability. The strains were evaluated for plant growth promotion under axenic conditions on maize crop. Strains C-3, C-5, L-6 and M-6 showed better growth of root and shoot, and physiological and biochemical parameters of maize plants. These four strains with all their possible combinations were tested in a jar trial at different moisture levels i. e. 100, 75 and 50% of field capacity. Results showed that the rhizobial inoculants were effective when used individually but the results were even better when used in combinations. Combinations, C1 (C5, C9 & L6), C2 (C9, L6 & M6) and C3 (C5, C9, L6 & M6) performed better and were selected for pot and field evaluation. Rhizobial inoculation enhanced the photosynthetic activity, stomatal conductance, transpirational rate, root and shoot dry weight, biomass and grain yield. At 100% FC, rhizobial combinations significantly increased grain yield of maize as compared to un-inoculated control. However, combination two (C2) showed maximum grain yield (12%) followed by Combination three (C3) (9%) as compared to un-inoculated control. Combination 2 (C2) improved grain yield (22%) followed by C3 (18%) at 75% field capacity over un-inoculated control. At 50% FC, rhizobial combinations C2 and C3 significantly increased (25%) and (19%) grain yield of maize as compared to un-inoculated control and C1 showed (2.91%) improvement in grain yield as compared to un-inoculated control but statistically at par with control. In field, to apply the drought, irrigations were skipped at critical stages. Drought badly affected the physiology, biochemistry and yield of maize. But rhizobial inoculation significantly ameliorated the adverse effects of drought by producing exopolysaccarides, biofilm formation, phosphate solubilization, ACC deaminase and antioxidents.
