Tight Focusing Properties of Phase Modulated Longitudinally Polarized Doughnut Gaussian Beam
Authors : K. Prabakaran,K:B. Rajesh,S. Ramachandran,M. Jayaprakash,V. Aroulmoji,

https://doi.org/10.29294/IJASE.4.3.2018.651-655

We investigated the focusing properties of a phase modulated radially polarized doughnut Gaussian beam by a high numerical aperture (NA) lens based on vector diffraction theory. We observed that our proposed system generates a sub wavelength focal spot of 0.42λ having large uniform focal depth of 5 λ. This kind of non diffracting focal segments is called as dark channel, which may have...

Pervaporation Modeling of Water-Alcohols Mixtures with the help of Artifical Neural Network
Authors : Mansoor Kazemimoghadam,Zahra Amiri,

https://doi.org/10.29294/IJASE.4.3.2018.656-661

The present study considered the amount of water-alcohol separation within the process of pervaporation by use of polymer membranes with the help of Artificial Neural Network modeling. Pervaporation can be utilized for separation of many liquids (in this study, it was used for separation of ethanol and butanol from water). All the mentioned alcohols have purity problems due to azeotropics with...

Authors : Sachin V. Chavan,D. Devaprakasam,

https://doi.org/10.29294/IJASE.4.3.2018.687-697

The increasing fossil fuel prices due to demand for electricity and increasing environmental changes have revitalized the idea to move towards the renewable energy sources. The solar photovoltaic module is one of the most sustainable and effective system. Solar Photovoltaic (PV) cells can absorb only 70-80% incident solar radiations however only small amount of this incident energy converted into...
