Brahma, the creator aspect Sarasvati, consort/wife (Shakti) of Brahma
-Often depicted with his mount, the white swan -Represents knowledge and learning
-Rarely figures in the stories -Often depicted with books/musical instruments
Lakshmi, consort/wife (Shakti) of Vishnu
-Often shown with her mount, a white elephant
-Represents beauty, etc.
-Is most often the avatar aspect, e.g. Sita
Vishnu, the preserver aspect
-Often pictured with his mount, the bird Garuda
-Is most often the avatar aspect, e.g. Rama, Krishna
Shiva, the destroyer aspect
-Often depicted with his mount, the white bull Nandi
-Often depicted with snakes and/or skulls around his neck
-Often is shown with a third eye in the middle of his forehead
-Often is shown with a blue throat (from swallowing the world poison)
Shiva's wives/consorts (Shaktis) include:
Uma, pictured here with her mount, a lion
Parvati, pictured here w/Shiva and their son, Ganesha, the elephant-headed God
and Kali, representing death and motherhood, often depicted with skulls, a bloody tongue, and standing on Shiva
The Churning of the Ocean
Remember that in this myth, the names of the members of the Trimurti change with their functions at any given time, but God is still the same. This myth is more properly called a myth of manifestation instead of a creation myth because Hinduism does not recognize an "original" creation. Creation takes place as part of a cycle of creation, destruction, re-creation. This is the destructive phase of the cycle. Shiva, the destructive aspect of the Trimuriti, is "insulted" (metaphorically representing the decline of the state of the world) and destroys the world. After the "ruin," the world is re-created. Note that even though the members of the Trimurti are one, they often speak to each other, and at times seem to be unaware that they are all part of one deity. The creation metaphor used here is the churning of milk into butter. Milk is a fertility element (hence, critical to the creation) as nourishment (breast-feeding). The "milky" ocean, with the mountain (or the churning stick) as the phallic symbol, is also the semen. In a literal sense, the churning of the ocean represented as the churning of milk into butter. In this myth, "good" and "evil" work together, as the Gods pull the snake (rope) from one side and the "demons" pull the rope from the other. Although they are pulling in opposite directions, their purpose is the same (to churn the ocean). As in the Native Am ...

The Goddess Lakshmi is known as the Goddess of prosperity and wealth. These two things lay
at the fundamental of everyone’s lives. But only a few people know that Lakshmi shows her
grace in eight different forms. There are unique names for each form. These all names together
are called ashta lakshmi.

The Sribaladayanidhi Temple, Paderu is the abode of Goddess Bala Tripura Sundari who is the ever-young child and effulgent as the Sun. Seated on a lotus, She is adorned in red and holds a book and a rosary.
Mahavidyas (Great Wisdoms) or Dasha-Mahavidyas are a
group of ten aspects of devi Parvati or Goddess Shakti in
Hinduism. The 10 Mahavidyas are Wisdom Goddesses,
aspects of devi Parvati, who represents a spectrum of
feminine divinity, from horrific goddesses at one end, to
the gentle at the other.
The development of Mahavidyas represents an important
turning point in the history of Shaktism as it marks the rise
of Bhakti aspect in Shaktism, which reached its zenith in
1700 CE. First sprung forth in the post-Puranic age, around
6th century C.E., it was a new theistic movement in which
the Supreme Being was envisioned as female. A fact
epitomized by texts like Devi-Bhagavata Purana, especially
its last nine chapters (31-40) of the seventh skandha,
which are known as the Devi Gita, and soon became
central texts of Shaktism.

Institution:
VIIT Pune, India
Abstract:
This paper proposes a system to differentiate between human-generated and AI-generated texts using stylometric analysis. The system analyzes text files and classifies writing styles by employing various clustering algorithms, such as k-means, k-means++, hierarchical, and DBSCAN. The effectiveness of these algorithms is measured using silhouette scores. The system successfully identifies distinct writing styles within documents, demonstrating its potential for plagiarism detection.
Introduction:
Stylometry, the study of linguistic and structural features in texts, is used for tasks like plagiarism detection, genre separation, and author verification. This paper leverages stylometric analysis to identify different writing styles and improve plagiarism detection methods.
Methodology:
The system includes data collection, preprocessing, feature extraction, dimensional reduction, machine learning models for clustering, and performance comparison using silhouette scores. Feature extraction focuses on lexical features, vocabulary richness, and readability scores. The study uses a small dataset of texts from various authors and employs algorithms like k-means, k-means++, hierarchical clustering, and DBSCAN for clustering.
Results:
Experiments show that the system effectively identifies writing styles, with silhouette scores indicating reasonable to strong clustering when k=2. As the number of clusters increases, the silhouette scores decrease, indicating a drop in accuracy. K-means and k-means++ perform similarly, while hierarchical clustering is less optimized.
Conclusion and Future Work:
The system works well for distinguishing writing styles with two clusters but becomes less accurate as the number of clusters increases. Future research could focus on adding more parameters and optimizing the methodology to improve accuracy with higher cluster values. This system can enhance existing plagiarism detection tools, especially in academic settings.
Hierarchical Digital Twin of a Naval Power SystemKerry Sado
A hierarchical digital twin of a Naval DC power system has been developed and experimentally verified. Similar to other state-of-the-art digital twins, this technology creates a digital replica of the physical system executed in real-time or faster, which can modify hardware controls. However, its advantage stems from distributing computational efforts by utilizing a hierarchical structure composed of lower-level digital twin blocks and a higher-level system digital twin. Each digital twin block is associated with a physical subsystem of the hardware and communicates with a singular system digital twin, which creates a system-level response. By extracting information from each level of the hierarchy, power system controls of the hardware were reconfigured autonomously. This hierarchical digital twin development offers several advantages over other digital twins, particularly in the field of naval power systems. The hierarchical structure allows for greater computational efficiency and scalability while the ability to autonomously reconfigure hardware controls offers increased flexibility and responsiveness. The hierarchical decomposition and models utilized were well aligned with the physical twin, as indicated by the maximum deviations between the developed digital twin hierarchy and the hardware.
HEAP SORT ILLUSTRATED WITH HEAPIFY, BUILD HEAP FOR DYNAMIC ARRAYS.
Heap sort is a comparison-based sorting technique based on Binary Heap data structure. It is similar to the selection sort where we first find the minimum element and place the minimum element at the beginning. Repeat the same process for the remaining elements.
Using recycled concrete aggregates (RCA) for pavements is crucial to achieving sustainability. Implementing RCA for new pavement can minimize carbon footprint, conserve natural resources, reduce harmful emissions, and lower life cycle costs. Compared to natural aggregate (NA), RCA pavement has fewer comprehensive studies and sustainability assessments.
NUMERICAL SIMULATIONS OF HEAT AND MASS TRANSFER IN CONDENSING HEAT EXCHANGERS...ssuser7dcef0
Power plants release a large amount of water vapor into the
atmosphere through the stack. The flue gas can be a potential
source for obtaining much needed cooling water for a power
plant. If a power plant could recover and reuse a portion of this
moisture, it could reduce its total cooling water intake
requirement. One of the most practical way to recover water
from flue gas is to use a condensing heat exchanger. The power
plant could also recover latent heat due to condensation as well
as sensible heat due to lowering the flue gas exit temperature.
Additionally, harmful acids released from the stack can be
reduced in a condensing heat exchanger by acid condensation. reduced in a condensing heat exchanger by acid condensation.
Condensation of vapors in flue gas is a complicated
phenomenon since heat and mass transfer of water vapor and
various acids simultaneously occur in the presence of noncondensable
gases such as nitrogen and oxygen. Design of a
condenser depends on the knowledge and understanding of the
heat and mass transfer processes. A computer program for
numerical simulations of water (H2O) and sulfuric acid (H2SO4)
condensation in a flue gas condensing heat exchanger was
developed using MATLAB. Governing equations based on
mass and energy balances for the system were derived to
predict variables such as flue gas exit temperature, cooling
water outlet temperature, mole fraction and condensation rates
of water and sulfuric acid vapors. The equations were solved
using an iterative solution technique with calculations of heat
and mass transfer coefficients and physical properties.

3. Gayatri or Gayatri Devi is the universal divine mother. She is regarded the mother of the
sacred vedas and remains the divine energy that animates all things. Gayatri is actually the
name of a vedic hymn, well known as Gayatri Mantra, which is regarded the most sacred.
Goddess Gayatri Devi is the personification of this very potent, sacred mantra.
There is a mythical story regarding the origin of Gayatri Devi. Once, lord Brahma, the God
of creation wanted to do an important sacrifice. However for performing the sacrifice, he had
to have a consort. Brahma requested the priest to get him a girl immediately, so that he can
marry her there itself and proceed with the ritual as planned. There was a beautiful maiden,
whose abode used to be the Himalayan regions of Mount Kailash and lake Manasarovar.
Incidentally she was found to be at that place then. Brahma was pleased, married her and
made her his consort, and went ahead with the sacrifice. This remarkable young woman
was none other than the divine manifestation of the sacred vedic hymn, Gayatri Mantra, and
hence she became, Gayatri Devi.
Gayatri Mantra is an earnest prayer of immense faith and devotion, addressed to the
supreme universal spirit. This mantra invokes the divinity and seeks its presence to
enlighten the self and illuminate the intellect. The hymn is made up of 24 syllables of
profound meaning and has a specific rhythm that is regarded extremely potent. Gayatri
Mantra is a great purifying factor on earth, which can bestow on sincere devotees,
substantial material and spiritual benefits. It is no surprise that Gayatri Devi, the
personification of this unique mantra, is regarded as the divine mother of the vedas and also
of the universe.
Goddess Gayatri is seated on a blooming red lotus. She is normally seen with five heads
and ten eyes, which cast their glances in all directions. In her ten arms, she holds all the
weapons of the great trinity, Lord Brahma, Bishnu and Shiva. There are various
interpretations for her forms. She is seen as the combined divine aspect of the three
supreme Goddesses, Saraswati,Laxmi and Parwati, and the very form of Adi Shakthi, the
primordial feminine energy. The four of her five heads are also said to represent the four
vedas, while the fifth denotes the supreme Almighty himself. However, some depictions
show her as the consort of Lord Brahma, where she is holding a book in hand denoting
knowledge and is seen with a white swan.
Chanting of the mantra and worshipping of the Goddess, bestows great sanctity to
everything that the devotees undertake. They get blessed with sharp intelligence,
exceptional radiance, great enthusiasm and tremendous zeal, so as to take on
responsibilities and complete them successfully. The Goddess answers their sincere
prayers by removing their obstacles and solving their problems, and bestowing them with
strength, wealth, prosperity and success. The prayers also purify the self and can lead to
immense spiritual attainments.
