This document reviews the application of nanofibers in tissue engineering. It discusses three main techniques to produce nanofibers - self-assembly, phase separation, and electrospinning. Electrospinning is commonly used to produce collagen, elastin, fibrinogen, and hemoglobin nanofibers between 80-700 nm in diameter for applications such as drug delivery, wound healing, and vascular tissue engineering. Nanofibers show potential for scaffolding in tissue engineering due to their high surface area to volume ratio and ability to mimic the extracellular matrix at a similar scale to individual cells.

PERFORMANCE ENHANCEMENT OF SINGLE SLOPE SOLAR STILL USING NANOPARTICLES MIXED...antjjournal
The present paper reports on an experiment to improve the productivity of solar still using nano-particles.Solar distillation is a relatively simple treatment of brackish or impure water. In this solar energy is used to evaporate water then this vapour is condensed as pure water. This process removes salts and other impurities. Latest trend to improve the efficiency of the solar still is use of nano-particles like metal oxides. These particles increase surface area of absorption to solar radiation. In this work the Al2O3 nanoparticles
mixed black paint is used to enhance the productivity of solar still. The solar radiations are transmitted through the glass cover and captured by a black painted inner bottom surface of the solar still. Water absorbs the heat and is converted into vapour within the chamber of the solar still.Single slop solar
still is used from past decades but in this study effect of nano-particles on productivity of solar still is
analyzed. Experimental work is performed for the single slope solar still (SS-SS) under climatic conditions
of Jaipur. The use of the nano-particles mixed with black paint increases the temperature of the solar still
basin. The productivity and efficiency of solar still at water depth 0.01 m with nano-particles are 3.48 litre
and 38.65% respectively which are maximum values compared to water depths 0.02 m and 0.03 m. Results
of the study gives 38.09% increment in productivity and 12.18% increment in thermal efficiency when
nano-particles of size 50 nm to 100 nm mixed black paint used at water depth .01 m. To check the
significance of difference in productivity of solar still with and without nano-particle mixed black paint, a
paired t-Test is performed which is conforms that the productivity enhancement due to nano-particle mixed
black paint is significant at 95% confidence interval.
this is about the application of nanotechnology in agriculture. that how we can secure the growth of plants and crops and make our crops better. in this ppt the use of nano-particles has discussed to avoid different pests and diseases by ruining the crops.

Problem statement: In this paper we focus on discussing the mechanical properties of electrospun Nafion-PAA membranes. Approach: We prepared solutions of varying composition ratios of Nafion and PAA in order to create the membranes using the electrospinning process. After the confection of the membranes they were studied using SEM Microscopy and various methods of mechanical properties determination. Results: Results have determined that the 80%Nafion/20%PAA heat treated post compacted membranes have the best water uptake. Conclusion: The membranes produced are superior to those commercially produced in regards to water uptake, especially those of Order 1.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

2. Nanotechnology
• The study of control of matter on an atomic and molecular
scale.
• Deals with structures the size of 100 nanometers or
smaller (1 nm = 1/1,000,000,000 m or 10-9 m).
• Involves engineering on a small scale to create smaller,
cheaper, lighter, and faster devices that can do more
things with less raw materials.

8. NANOFIBERS: SELF-ASSEMBLY
Definition: spontaneous organization into stable structure without
covalent bonds
Biologically relevant processes
- Cellulose,Lipids, DNA, RNA, protein organization
- can achieve small diameter
Example: peptide-amphipathics
- hydrophobic tail
- cysteine residues disulfide bonds
9. Self-assembly
• Relies on non-covalent interactions to achieve
spontaneously assembled 3D structure.
• Biopolymers such as peptides and nucleic acids
are used. Example is peptide-amphiphile (PA)
• (A) Chemical structure of (PA)
• (B) Molecular model of the PA showing the

10. Phase Separation
Definition: thermodynamic separation of polymer solution into polymer-rich and
polymer-poor layers
• This process involves dissolving of a polymer in a
solvent at a high temperature followed by a liquid–
liquid or solid–liquid phase separation induced by
lowering the solution temperature
• Capable of wide range of geometry and dimensions
include pits, islands, fibers, and irregular pore
structures
• Simpler than self-assembly
a) powder, b) scaffolds with continuous network, c) foam with closed pores.4
11. Elastin Is An “Entropic Spring”
• ΔG = ΔH – TΔS
• ΔH = enthalpy changes, which don’t normally happen in solvents.
• ΔS = entropy changes…
changes in the degree of
order
• Stretching a polymer
increases it’s order, and
makes ΔS negative.
• ΔG is then positive, and
unfavorable.
