e-Governance is a medium to offer various services to citizens through a web portal, that exists in many countries nowadays. The existing e-Governance technology is a vast, centrally managed database and a set of applications that connect to it via web interfaces. Despite the modernisation of services, it remains with the lack of transparency. Thus, the existing infrastructure of e-Governance paves the way for corrupt practises by the bureaucrats. e-Governance needs a powerful underlying technology which doesn't provide any way to allow tampering of the record and which in turn eliminates corruption. In this paper, we took land registration as a use-case for building e-Governance by keeping Blockchain as an underlying technology, to put off the corrupt practices and to bring transparency. Once transactions in land registration added to the Blockchain, it is immutable as it is cryptographically secured. Besides, the blockchain technology is secured as the ledger is distributed over the network. If a hacker wants to modify the ledger, he needs to hack every node in the blockchain network. Hyperledger Fabric, a permissioned Blockchain adopted for implementation and Hyperledger Caliper for performance analysis with these evaluation metrics such as throughput, latency and execution time.

Objective: The aim of this study was to compare the accuracy of Bolton analysis obtained from digital models scanned with the Ortho Insight three-dimensional (3D) laser scanner system to those obtained from cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) images and traditional plaster models. Methods: CBCT scans and plaster models were obtained from 50 patients. Plaster models were scanned using the Ortho Insight 3D laser scanner; Bolton ratios were calculated with its software. CBCT scans were imported and analyzed using AVIZO software. Plaster models were measured with a digital caliper. Data were analyzed with descriptive statistics and the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC). Results: Anterior and overall Bolton ratios obtained by the three different modalities exhibited excellent agreement (> 0.970). The mean differences between the scanned digital models and physical models and between the CBCT images and scanned digital models for overall Bolton ratios were $0.41{\pm}0.305%$ and $0.45{\pm}0.456%$, respectively; for anterior Bolton ratios, $0.59{\pm}0.520%$ and $1.01{\pm}0.780%$, respectively. ICC results showed that intraexaminer error reliability was generally excellent (> 0.858 for all three diagnostic modalities), with < 1.45% discrepancy in the Bolton analysis. Conclusions: Laser scanned digital models are highly accurate compared to physical models and CBCT scans for assessing the spatial relationships of dental arches for orthodontic diagnosis.

This paper deals with friction-induced vibration of disc brake system under constact friction coefficient. A linear, finite element model to represent the floating caliper disc brake system is proposed. The complex eigenvalues are used to investigate the dynamic stability and in order to verify simulations which are based on the FEM model, The comparison of experimental and analytical results shows a good agreement and the analysis indicates that mode coupling due to friction force and geometric instability is responsible fur disc brake squeal. And the Front brake system reduced the squeal noise using design of experiment method(DOE). This helped to validate the FEM model and establish confidence in the simulation results. Also they may be useful during real disk brake model.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate and compare the sealing ability of ZOE, FR and AH-26. Seventy two upper and lower anterior and premolor teeth were randomly selected and instrumented in a conventional method with K-file. After instrumentation and dry the canal, the teeth were divided into 3 groups and twenty four teeth in each group were filled with ZOE, FR, and AH-26 respectively. All the specimens were immersed into Indian Ink and decalcified in nitric acid and cleared in methyl salicylate. The apical leakage was evaluated by measuring the degree of ink penetration with caliper at the intervals of 1 day, 7 days and 14 days. The results were as follows; 1. In AH-26 and FR groups, there was increase in penetration related to increased time of immersion in the ink. 2. FR group showed the least penetration in 3 groups. 3. Statistics showed that there was no significant difference among the each sealer groups.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of canal filling methods and post-space preparation time on the apical seal of endodontically treated teeth. Seventy-six single-rooted human teeth were divided into 6 groups and each tooth was obturated and prepared post-space according to the purpose of this study. After all specimens were immersed in Indian ink, decalcified and cleared, the degree of dye penetration into the root canals observed by magnifying glass (X20) and measured by caliper. The results were as follows: 1. In the thermatic condensation, no significant difference in ink penetration occured when the post-spaces were created immediately after obturation or when they were made a week later. 2. In the lateral condensation, no significant difference in ink penetration existed between teeth whose post-space were prepared immediately or delayed. 3. In comparison of experimental groups and control groups, no significant difference showed when the groups were obturated with McSpadden compactor but when the teeth were laterally condensed, the experimental groups showed less ink penetration than controls. 4. Thermatic condensed teeth with McSpadden compactor were less ink penetration thn laterally condensed teeth.

A single experimental design (alternating treatment design) was used to compare the effects of the mobilization and heat therapy on the pain and mouth opening in patient with temporo-mandibular disorder (TMD). In the mobilization sessions, the physiotherapist performed two methods of the mobilization on the temporo-mandibular joints. In the heat therapy sessions, the patient received infrared and ultrasono on the temporo-mandibular joint. The mobilization and heat therapy were performed on alternate days during 10 days. Pain was measured by visual analogue scale (VAS) and mouth opening was measured by caliper. The results showed that mobilization and heat therapy were effective in pain reduce and mouth opening increase, and mobilization was superior to heat therapy in mouth opening increase and pain reduce.

A knowledge of in situ stress state is important to design various engineering structures such as dams, tunnels and so on. There are about three wellknown indicators that is, borehole will breakouts, hydraulic fracturing, ellipsoidal cross section of borehole that have been attributed to the state of stress in the vicinity of borehole. Fortunately, Televiewer traveltime image can be used as a caliper log with 144 or 288 arms, which allows to determine the borehole shape. Televiewer amplitude image will give detailed information about the distribution and character of breakouts and hydraulic fracturing as well. For investigation purposes, a series of boreholes(total 195 boreholes: 12.239m) that have been logged all over the country during past 10 years are analyzed. The primary objective of this paper are to examnine the ability of a Televiewer to determine the shape of borehole, to present data inferred by stress indicators, to indicate their possible relationship with the anisotropic horizontal stresses. It is shown that in most cases the fracture orientation statistically estimated from observed fractures denotes an excellent correlation with the orientations inferred by stress indicators. Many intervals of breakouts are terminated at the intersection of oblique fracture with the borehole. The results from Televiewer data are further compared with those of hydraulic fracturing techniques.

Purpose: This study examined the effects of the weight-bearing pattern and calcaneal taping on the heel width and plantar pressure in standing. Methods: Fifteen healthy subjects with normal feet participated in this study. The heel width was measured using a digital caliper, and a pedoscan was used to measure the plantar pressure of the rear foot while standing. The participants were instructed to stand in three weight-bearing patterns (anterior, middle, and posterior weight bearing) before and after calcaneal taping. The heel width and plantar pressure were measured three times before and three times after calcaneal taping, with the three weight-bearing patterns applied in random order. A 2 (non-taping vs. taping) × 3 (anterior, middle, posterior weight bearing) two-way repeated ANOVA with a Bonferroni post hoc correction was used to assess the differences in heel width and plantar pressure. Results: The results revealed a significant main effect of the weight-bearing pattern (p<.01), but not of calcaneal taping (p>.05). Greater weight bearing applied to the heel resulted in a significantly increased heel width and planter pressure of the rear foot (p<.01). Conclusion: In standing, a posterior weight-bearing pattern increases the heel width due to side-to-side shifting of the plantar heel pad, which increases the heel plantar pressure. Therefore, to prevent high stress on the heel pad and plantar heel pain, it is important to refrain from posterior weight bearing while standing during the activities of daily living.
