Brain Fingerprinting is a new computer-based technology to identify the perpetrator of a crime accurately and scientifically by measuring brain-wave responses to crime-relevant words or pictures presented on a computer screen. Brain Fingerprinting has proven 100% accurate in over 120 tests, including tests on FBI agents, tests for a US intelligence agency and for the US Navy, and tests on real-life situations including felony crimes. Brain fingerprinting is based on finding that the brain generates a unique brain wave pattern when a person encounters a familiar stimulus Use of functional magnetic resonance imaging in lie detection derives from studies suggesting that persons asked to lie show different patterns of brain activity than they do when being truthful. Issues related to the use of such evidence in courts are discussed. The author concludes that neither approach is currently supported by enough data regarding its accuracy in detecting deception to warrant use in court. In the field of criminology, a new lie detector has been developed in the United States of America. This is called “brain fingerprinting”. This invention is supposed to be the best lie detector available as on date and is said to detect even smooth criminals who pass the polygraph test (the conventional lie detector test) with ease. The new method employs brain waves, which are useful in detecting whether the person subjected to the test, remembers finer details of the crime. Even if the person willingly suppresses the necessary information, the brain wave is sure to trap him, according to the experts, who are very excited about the new kid on the block.

Investigation on Growth and Optical Properties of LVCC Single CrystalsIJERA Editor
L-valine cadmium chloride (LVCC) single crystals were grown by slow evaporation technique with different
concentrations (0.25, 0.5, 0.75 and 1.0 mole) of CdCl2. All the grown crystals were subjected to single crystal
X-ray diffraction analysis. Solid state parameters were calculated for the grown crystals. The optical properties
of the crystals were investigated by UV-Vis. absorption spectroscopy. The results revealed that, the wider
bandgap and large transparency in the visible region along with higher polarizability of the grown crystals are
highly useful in optoelectronic devices. Also according to our needs, one can tune the optical and electrical
properties of LVCC crystals by adjusting the concentration of CdCl2 in LVCC.
Growth Processes for a pulse of leptin in fasting human subjectsIJERA Editor
A meal-like transient hyperinsulinemia and hyperglycemia, with a pulse of xamethasone, increased serum leptin levels from baseline by 54±21% at 9 h (P = 0.038). In the absence of transient hyperglycemia, leptin increased significantly after doses of both insulin and xamethasone. The effect of insulin was dose-dependent, with a larger increment of serum leptin at 9 h after the highest dose of insulin (75.2±15.7% vs 21.3±8.5%, P = 0.013). Fasting, with or without dexamethasone, resulted in a significant 20% decrease in leptin from morning basal levels. Conversely, the administration of a pulse of insulin and glucose, in the absence of dexamethasone, prevented the drop in serum leptin observed during fasting, regardless of the insulin dose or the serum glucose elevation. The permissive effect of dexamethasone, a single pulse of insulin triggered a rise in serum leptin in humans, even in the absence of transient hyperglycemia. A single pulse of insulin with glucose can prevent the drop in serum leptin normally observed during fasting. We also find the Growth Processes of Leptin

Financing Small Scale Contractors through Mobilization Advance Payments for I...IJERA Editor
The construction industry plays an important role in any economy, and its activities are vital to the achievement
of the socio-economic development goals of a nation.
In Ghana, the construction and housing industry plays an immeasurable role in the national developmental
agenda. What however, appears to be debatable is whether the industry wields the much expected driving force
required to pronounce its vital contribution towards accelerated national growth in terms of infrastructural
development. This paper assesses the extent to which Mobilization Advance Payment (MAP) contribute to the
output of small scale contractors in the Tamale metropolis. Thirty (30) construction firms, fifteen (15)
consultancy firms and fifteen (15) financial institutions were surveyed, and Chi-Squared (X2) test at α=0.05was
run on responses using SPSS. The study revealed that 49% of key stakeholders in the construction industry in
the Tamale metropolis see mobilization advance payment from clients as the most accessible and affordable
form of construction financing. This was closely followed by Banks/Saving & Loans (regulated financial
institution) with 43%, and 8% for non-regulated financial institutions. A significantly high number of
consultants (60%) agreed that mobilization advance payment is the most accessible and affordable form of
construction financing. The Chi-Squared (X2) Test on MAP and contractors performance also revealed an X2
statistic of ≈0.711 for a degrees of freedom of 4 which means that MAP arrangements for contractors contribute
significantly to their output.
Regrettable though, the misappropriation or misuse of such funds by some contractors has resulted in
difficulties in accessing mobilization advance payments even by genuine contractors in dire need of working
capital. Abandoned projects, delay in project delivery, cost overruns and employment of unqualified personnel
among others result from the unavailability of this accessible and affordable form of construction financing.
This adversely affects the performance of contractors and the overall project success. It was strongly
recommended that clients strive to make mobilization advance payments available and easily accessible to
contractors to enhance their performance.
Amelioration of safety management in infrastructure projectsIJERA Editor
Accidents are a major public health concern, resulting in an estimated 1.2 million deaths and 50 million injuries
worldwide each year specifically, the relationships between drivers' characteristics and road accidents are not
fully understood. Many factors are involved in the accident occurrence at construction site. Some important
elements that create a significant portion of accidents include: safety management error, poor training programs,
human element, act of god, outdated procedure and no clear monitoring policy. Although some of these items
are inevitable, but the occurrence of the largest part can be prevented. Therefore, for ameliorating the safety in a
project each of these items should be analyzed and a practical approach introduced. In general, near miss,
incident and accident are three dependent levels that mainly lead to injury. Risk and hazard are allocated in first
level which means near miss, therefore, no on-time identification of hazard and risk causes to create incident
and preventing accident in incident stage is unavoidable.

In this paper, we propose a new simple relayingstrategy based on bit-interleaved convolutionally coded starquadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) along with coherent/ noncoherent detection. Exploiting this property, a hard limiter is used to enhance power amplifier (PA) efficiency at the relay.here we are using the higher order modulation for improving relay communication and also employ the accurate relay technique.Moreover, we show that the proposedapproach retains differential detectability, which results in a significant reduction of receiver complexity with robustness against phase ambiguityBy analyzing our proposed method in terms of asymptotic pairwise error probability(PEP),Furthermore, theeffectiveness of the proposed scheme in terms of PA efficiency is confirmed by comparing the statistical distributions of the corresponding instantaneous signal power.and also implement the PEP in MIMO systems for improving the power efficiency.All the theoretical results agree with those obtained by computer simulations.
Determination of homogenous regions in the Tensift basin (Morocco).IJERA Editor
The aim of this study is to determine homogenous region in the Tensift basin within which the hydrological behavior is similar. In order to do this we used two methods: The Principal components analysis on the monthly precipitation registered at the 23 rainfall stations. This resulted in setting apart 4 groups of stations. The second method is analysis of land use map, geological map, pedagogical map, vegetation map and slope map of the studied area. This method allowed us to delineate 4 homogenous areas. The two methods yielded complementary results and the superposition of groups and regions obtained allowed us to retain 4 homogenous regions corresponding to 3 groups of stations.

ABSTRACT
This work aims to study the mechanical behavior of a nylon seat belt when it is exposed to cyclical loads through
the Finite Element Methods. This work used as base the brazilian regulamentoy standard ABNT NBR 7337:2011
to create the virtual model of the seat belt, with the following dimensions: 1.20mm thick, 48mm width and
250mm length. The next step was to import this CAD model to ANSYS 14.5 software, to create the correct
material model for this case and apply the correct boundary conditions in order to analyze its behavior under a
load that varies from 0 to 2000 N at a 10 Hz frequency. The final step was to analyze this numerical results that
referring to this component under these conditions.

I. INTRODUCTION
With the accessibility to the automotive vehicles
and consequently the increase of sells, the regulatory
agencies constantly look for actions to increase the
safety of passengers of these vehicles in order to
reduce efficiently the consequences of severe
accidents. Among the various components that a
vehicle has in order to guarantee the safety of the
passengers the seat belt is a basic safety item and its
use is obligatory, as prescribed at the BTC (Brazilian
Traffic Code).
The vehicular seat belt is probably the most
common safety item used around the world when we
think about passengers vehicles. Its use is obligatory
as its prescribed at the Article 65 of the BTC, and its
non-use is treated as a serious offense against the
Brazilian Traffic Code. Some of the benefits of its
utilization was said by Marcus Romaro (2005): this
item keeps the occupants at the same point, do not
allow them to be thrown in case of a collision,
absorbs part of the impact’s energy and distribute the
remain energy by the strongest points of the human
body, minimizes the chance of a second collision
(when the occupants collide with the vehicle
interior), reduces the chance of occurring a
conscience loss and guarantee a correct and stable
position to drive.
The fatigue failure occurs when the material is
subjected to a dynamic load during a period and it
fails under an inferior stress than its yield strength
(Evandro, 2011). Therefore, understanding the
mechanical behavior of the seat belt when its
subjected to cyclic loads, allow us to predict risks
situations and the need of and eventual intervention
allowing the preventive substitution of this
component. The finite element methods is inserted at
this analysis due it’s advanced analytical capacity and
due its relative short response time, when its
compared to the fatigue experiments.
Because its material is a polymer and its
behavior depend of more variables than metals, as for
example the load frequency (Evandro, 2011), the
actual scenario faces a lack of studies around this
issue.
I. METODOLOGY
Model criation
To analyze the seat belt thread, first it was
necessary to generate its model at a CAD software.
The model was created through the SolidWorks
software with 1.20 mm thick, 48 mm wide and 250
mm long. The next step was to generate the finite
element mesh for this model. This mesh was created
as it is shown at Figure 1, with 134389 nodes and
24000 elements.

nodes and 24000 elements
As Geisiel (2014), the materials used to
manufacture the seatbelts usually are made using
synthetic fibers and must have good absorption and
dissipation of energy capacity, in order to guarantee a
uniform pressure applied to the passengers. In this
study, the nylon was chosen to model the seat belt, as

the Altair HyperWorks reference model (2012). The
values of density, modulus of elasticity and the
Poisson coefficient of the material used are shown at
Figure 2 below.

In addition to the mechanical properties shown
above, it was introduced at the ANSYS software the
stress-strain nylon curve, that can be seen at Figure 3
shown below.

It was also required the addition of the nylon SN
curve, in order to model the material to the fatigue
study. The curve used was presented by Averett
(2004) and can be seen at the Figure 4 below.

II. BOUNDARY CONDITIONS
Figure 5 below shows the boundary conditions
applied at this analysis. The six degree of freedom of
the model were constrained at one end of the seat belt
thread in order to constrain its translation and rotation
movements at the X, Y and Z axis. At the opposite
end, was applied a cyclical force varying from 0 to
2000 N. This load case were defined by numerical
approximation in order to define the seat belt’s usual
conditions.
Fig. 5: Boundary conditions. Adapted from [5]
Besides the defined applied loads, the Goodman
criterion were chosen to analyze the model at
specified conditions, as (1) show us.
Where σa is the alternating stress, σm is the
medium stress, Se is the material’s fatigue yield
strength, σr is the ultimate stress and FS is the safety
factor.
III. RESULTS
According to the described methodology, the
following results were obtained through the analysis.
The alternating stress calculated at these conditions
reached extremely high levels.
The Figure 6 below shows the estimated results
relative to the components life, according to the load
case discussed before. We can notice that the
estimated life to the tension condition between 0 and
2000 N at 10 Hz is on the order of 9,07 x 106
loading
cycles. At Figure 7 the detailed area that presents the
highest fluctuations oscilations at the results is
shown.

At Figure 8 showed below the maximum and
minimum safety coefficients determined to this
analysis are shown, with the maximum value equals
to 1.3322 and the minimum determined as 0.23537.

IV. CONCLUSION
The main goal of this work was to determine,
through the Finite Element Method, the mechanical
behavior of the nylon seat belt, when it is under a
cyclic tension load of magnitude of 2000 N at a
application frequency of 10 Hz.
Although the mechanical behavior of the seat
belt was in accordance with the expected results,
experimental tests are recommended in order to
obtain the validation of the numerical model
presented.
