This is an android application software that alerts users with an automatic alarming system for medication and dosages. Most of the time patients cannot remember the exact time when they need to take the medicine. This app will alert patients about the time of medication, description of medicine, before-after meals, and so on. The alarm can be set with different types of pictures with the name of the medicines to overcome any kind of difficulty in reading. To develop this project, an incremental development strategy is followed to support customer requirements. Android Studio IDE, Java, and XML tools will be used for the implementation of the project. The system focuses on easy navigation and a good user interface. Many systems have been developed where new hardware and data storage is required but, in our work, we have made an attempt to develop a system that is economical, time-saving, and supports medication adherence.

The 2 MV 6SDH-2 tandem pelletron accelerator installed at CASP, GC University Lahore has evolved over the past years from acceptance tests to an extremely reliable and convenient research tool in the field of particle accelerator physics, hav-ing capability of providing variety of ion beams from few keV to several MeV in energy. Many electrostatic and magnetic devices are employed to steer an ion beam in an accelerator system all the way from ion source to experimental setup. Mathematical modeling and optimization of low energy beamline has been done for this accelerator. Several ion optics and steering devices are provided in the pre-acceleration beamline for ion beam manipulation and in order to optimize the overall beam transmission. As the quality of the beam from the accelerator depends upon the design of these electrostatic and magnetic devices, optimum settings are derived by manually adjusting voltages and currents provided to low energy beam-line components. From these calibrations and optimization measurements, calculations has been done for mass analysis magnets, steering and focusing components and the results has been represented. From the results, it has been found that there exists a complex relationship between the effects of different voltages and currents in order to tune the desired output current and beam profile at the end-stations. Details of experiments and data analysis are presented.

This study focuses on the understanding of the role of clay minerals in hydrocarbon generation, migration and accumulation. Clay minerals are involved in the formation of kerogen, catalytic cracking of kerogen into petroleum, migration of crude oil, and the continued change to hydrocarbon composition in petroleum reservoirs. In kerogen formation, clay minerals act as catalysts and sorbents to immobilize organic matter through ligand exchange, hydrophobic interactions and cation bridges by the mechanisms of Maillard reactions, polyphenol theory, selective preservation and adsorptive protection. Clay minerals also serve as catalysts in acid-catalyzed cracking of kerogen into petroleum hydrocarbon through Lewis and Bronsted acid sites on the clay surfaces. The amount and type of clay mineral affect the composition of the petroleum. Bronsted acidity of clay minerals is affected by the presence and state of interlayer water, and displacement of this water is a probable driver in crude oil migration from source rocks. During crude oil migration and accumulation in reservoirs, the composition of petroleum is continually modified by interaction with clay minerals. Clay minerals remain the most difficult of all earth materials to study and characterize. Their sheet structure results in features that can only be resolved at the sub-micron scale. They are also subtly variable in chemical composition (Fe, Mg, K, Al, et cetera) and can be confused with each other and other silicates. The recent innovative analytical tools and modern analysis techniques, example., micro- and nano-X-ray Computed Tomography (XCT), QEMSCAN (Automated Mineralogy and Petrography), FIB/SEM (Focused Ion Beam/Scanning Electron Microscope), EDS (Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy), etc., have the capability of quantitative and qualitative characterizing nano-pore features and mineralogy of fine grained shale rocks, which create new era of studying clay minerals for facilitating unconventional (shale) reservoir exploration. Even though there have been reports about the application of clay minerals in the oil and gas exploration, surprisingly little work has been documented. Keyword: clay mineral, organic matter, generation, vitrinite, kerogen, montmorillonite.

The incidence of kidnapping peoples in Nigeria has taken an alarming dimension for reasons not well addressed by successive governments in Nigeria. This unlawful act has increase despite the various legislations prohibiting kidnapping both the international level and at the three tiers levels of government. The law against kidnapping has been passed almost a decade since 2013 by the federal government of Nigeria with some states in the country domesticating law from 2017-2021. The purpose of this paper is to design a software program that uses a smartwatch and is dubbed as blower. It can help the users (victim) to alert the security personnel’s or relatives for help. When the report button on the smartwatch is clicked, the geolocation and the SMS application interface(API) are triggered, and SMS will generate with details of the current coordinates of the device location and sent to a predefined number. This message is sent continuously whenever the location changes. Is an innovative software suite (Web, Mobile, API, and Database) that can be used to help the victim, in curbing kidnapping issues in our society.

They are broadly investigated for their physicochemical properties. Plants are including in the method that turns ions to nanoparticles because plants and their parts have different types of primary and secondary metabolites. Different types of factors like the concentration of plant extract, temperature, pH, incubation time, and metal salts increase the rate of size, shape, and stability of palladium nanoparticles. Palladium nanoparticles are extensively employ in medicine, drug carrier delivery, cancer treatment, and sensors, and received wide interest as a result of their different size-dependent catalytic concert. Usually, palladium nanoparticles are synthesized by different types of methods involving complicated equipment and hazardous chemicals, in physical and chemical procedures.

This article analyzes the uncertain situation of Afghan migrants living in Turkey by using secondary data analysis. This article starts by investigating the Turkish government's migration policy over time, which will help in understanding the illegal status of Afghan migrants in Turkey. It is followed by a historical overview of Afghan migration, this section will demonstrate the history of Afghan migration from the 1970s to the present time. The article then focuses on Afghan migration flow to Turkey and beyond, this section explores the role of Turkey as a transit country and the migration patterns of Afghan migrants. Finally, the uncertain situation of Afghan migrants in Turkey is explored, this section will demonstrate why Afghan migrants are stuck in the limbo.
