This book discusses current trends and potential areas of nanotechnology applications in dental materials. Dentistry is undergoing yet another change to benefit mankind via the discipline of nanodentistry. A variety of nanostructures such as nanorobots, nanospheres, nanofibers, nanorods, etc., have been studied for various applications in dentistry and medicine. Preventive dentistry has also utilized nanodentistry to develop the nanomaterials for inclusion in a variety of oral health-care products. Methods to prevent and combat dental problems have been devised, discussed, and implemented since ancient times; however, there is a constant need for improved tools and techniques. This book is relevant academically for undergraduate and post-graduate dental students, dental practitioners, researchers, and faculties of dental universities, as this book explores the application of various nanobiomaterials in dentistry, discusses current research in dental nanomaterials and potential future areas of interest, and examines the use of nanotechnology in various fields of dentistry.

The workshop on Control Mechanics, originated in 1988, beca- me an annual event and gained considerable recognition in advancing control of nonlinear and uncertain mechanical sy- tems and promoting application of advanced mechanics in con- trol. The fourth meeting continues the tradition with 17 papers containing original and recent work of the partici- pants developed in 3 basic directions: feed-back control of uncertain systems, flexible mechanical structures and flight control.

The book presents select proceedings of the 8th International and 29th All India Manufacturing Technology, Design and Research (AIMTDR 2021) conference. It covers recent advances in the realms of electro- physical and chemical machining, machining optimization, surface morphology and sustainable machining. The contents also include precision engineering, metrology and quality, automation and smart systems, enterprise manufacturing intelligence, among others. This book will evoke interest among academicians, researchers, and practicing engineers who aspire to comprehend advances pertaining to the domain of modern machining processes

In this study the effect of T.thiooxidans in the soil reclamation and sulphur solubilizing capabilities of Organism has been analyzed. The soil with different PH (7.5, 8.3 and 9.3) was tested with different concentration (20 ml, 30 ml and 50 ml) of T.thiooxidans. The soil was also treated with the combination of T.thiooxidans and sulphur particles in different concentrations (0.5%, 1% and 1.5%). From the above treatment, T.thiooxidans along with Sulphur particles was found to reduce the soil pH from alkaline to acidic in efficient manner at faster rate. The Sulphur oxidizing bacteria, T.thiooxidans was tested for Sulphur, Nitrogen, Phosphorus and Potassium production in soil. It was proved that increased concentration of T.thiooxidans resulted in increased production of Sulphur, Nitrogen, Phosphorus and Potassium in soil. In this study, the green gram plant was tested with different soil pH and different concentrations of T.thiooxidans and only with sulphur particles. The plant was checked for Protein, Chlorophyll and Carbohydrate content similar studies were made to check the length of shoot and root of the plant, the above tests proved that to be increased.

A rare peak into the heart of the guru-disciple relationship through a series of letters between the renowned Advaita Master, Ramesh S. Balsekar and two of his ripest disciples.Ramesh reveals himself to be a Living Master who sparkles with wit, compassion and wisdom as he undertakes the impossible task of putting into words that which is beyond the mind's understanding.This is a much anticipated reprint of a long out-of-print title.
