A Study of Selective English Language Lab Activities towards Honing Soft Skills by Using Analytical Hierarchy Method Abdul Majeed, Gitasri Mukherjee, Shaik Baba Naseeruddin, M. A. Rawoof Sayeed, V. Shyam Prasad Boletim Da Sociedade Paranaense De Matematica, 2025 The Fourth Industrial Revolution is characterized by the seamless integration of digital technologies into industrial operations and systems. The twenty-first century is a witness to unparalleled advancements in data generation and connectivity, sophisticated analytics, and increasingly seamless human-machine interaction. The professional arena has significantly been reshaped as there is acceleration in adopting new technologies, driven by the need to remain relevant in the current competitive global market. For an engineering graduate, the digital shift in the industry has heightened the need to be equipped with the technological competency since they are required not only to understand traditional engineering principles but also to possess the aptitude to work with emerging technologies which in turn enables them to innovate, solve complex problems with ease and collaborate effectively in digitally integrated platforms. However, the employability and sustenance in the industry, fighting all odds are not guaranteed only by acquiring the hard skills. Technical competence once complemented by the essential soft skills can ensure holistic professional growth for an engineering graduate resulting into enhanced work efficiency and sustained relevance. The English language labs in engineering colleges across India can cater to these needs by effective designing of various lab activities such as debates, group discussions, role plays, power point presentations just to name a few. In this study the authors adopted the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) as a decision-making tool to assess the impact of different lab activities and identify the most in-demand soft skill in the current professional landscape.
Radiation influence on transient MHD convection over a permeable surface with thermal diffusion Sk. Nuslin, D. A. Rawoof, P. L. Pallavi, D. Padma, D. Naheed, M. L. Gundagani Theoretical and Mathematical Physics Russian Federation, 2025 We investigate the impact of radiation on a transient magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) natural convective flow past an upright permeable surface, considering the thermal diffusion. The fundamental equations, a coupled system of nonlinear partial differential equations, defy analytical solutions. Consequently, a numerical solution employing the Galerkin finite-element method was implemented. We explore the flow behavior under varying conditions, encompassing the thermal diffusion, Schmidt number, Grashof number, magnetic field strength, Prandtl number, heat source parameter, and radiative parameter. Results are presented graphically, illustrating the variations in velocity, temperature, and density profiles. Furthermore, the analysis quantifies the effects on the coefficient of skin friction and the Nusselt number. This comprehensive numerical approach provides valuable insights into the complex interplay of these parameters within the specified MHD free convective flow regime.
Finite Amplitude Cellular Thermohaline Convection M. A. Rawoof Sayeed, Y. Rameshwar Journal of Heat Transfer, 2022 In this paper, linear and nonlinear properties of thermohaline convection at the onset with the stress-free boundary conditions are investigated using perturbation analysis relevant to oceanic water and ground water. The nonlinear governing equations are expanded using linear stability solutions, related to the temperature, motion, and concentration in the series of nonhomogeneous linear equations. The proposed method yields finite amplitude steady solutions by means of successive approximations. The rate of heat transfer is studied up to sixth-order using an expansion of thermal Rayleigh number (Ra1) as proposed by Kuo (1961, “Solution of the Non-Linear Equations of the Cellular Convection and Heat Transport,” J. Fluid Mech., 10(04), pp. 611–630). The heat transfer rate of the system depends on Lewis number, Prandtl number, and thermal (Ra1) as well as solutal (Ra2) Rayleigh number. The result for the heat transport (N) in the system fits a power law of exponent of 0.288, i.e., N≃(Ra1/Ra1o)0.288 for Ra2=0, Pr = 10 and Ra1>4Ra1o. This power law of exponent value of 0.288 is close to the results (0.25) obtained by Kuo (1961, “Solution of the Non-Linear Equations of the Cellular Convection and Heat Transport,” J. Fluid Mech., 10(04), pp. 611–630), and also to the experimental results for laminar convection by Jakob (1949, Heat Transfer, Vol. 1, Wiley, New York.). The characteristics of heat transfer and flow field results are depicted by means of isotherms and streamlines, respectively. The path of convective heat transport and the comprehensive analysis of energy distribution by means of heatlines are explained using the concept of heat function. Laminar natural convection using entropy generation analysis due to fluid friction and heat transfer is also being studied. The numerical simulation for total entropy generation has been carried out for Prandtl numbers pertaining to ground water for different Ra1 and Ra2.
