The experimental study shows that PCA performs better than LDA and ICA. To improve the obtained results the PCA is combined with SVM, where an accuracy rate increases in the detection of cyber attacks.Item Acid Extracts of Ervatamia coronaria Leaves for Corrosion Inhibition of Mild Steel(2010) Subhashini, S; Rajalakshmi, RCorrosion inhibitors for acid cleaning processes are used to restrict dissolution of the base metal and decrease acid consumption and hydrogen gas evolution. Because of the toxic nature and high cost of some chemicals currently in use, it is necessary to develop environmentally acceptable and less expensive inhibitors. Natural products can be considered as a good source for this puipose. An evaluation of the effective performance of extract of Ervatamia coronaria leaves on the corrosion inhibition of mild steel in 1 M HCl and 0.5 M H2SO4 at ambient temperature has been made. Conventional weight loss and electrochemical measurements were used for the evaluation. Electrochemical studies reveal that the plant extracts act as mixed type inhibitors. The Etvatamia coronaria (Nandhiyavatai) leaves extracts yielded a maximum of 98 % in acid medium. Surface coverage values were tested graphically for suitable adsorption isotherm.Item Acute Toxicity of the Ethanol Extract of Aerial Roots Of Rhaphidophora Aurea Twined over Lawsonia Inermis(2012) Lalitha, PThis study was performed to elucidate the possible toxic effect of the ethanolic extract of aerial roots of Rhaphidophora aurea twined over Lawsonia inermis on Swiss mice.

These results state that ethanol extract of Rhaphidophora aurea twined over Lawsonia inermis is toxicologically safe by oral administration.Item Acute Toxicity Study of Extracts of Eichhornia Crassipes (Mart) Solms(2012) Lalitha, PEichhornia crassipes is a water weed and is considered as a threat to the environment and economy. The purpose of the study was to test the acute oral toxicity of the extracts of the plant. Acute toxicity of ethyl acetate, aqueous extracts and methanol fractionate of Eichhornia crassipes was evaluated in Swiss mice. The acute toxicity studies were carried out based on OECD guidelines 423 and fixed dosage studies was adopted where the limit dose is 2000mg/kg body weight of test animal. The animals were orally administered a single dose of 100, 250, 500,750, 1000, 2000mg/kg body weight. Signs of toxicity and mortality were noted after 1, 4 and 24h of administration of the extract for 14 days. The highest dose administered (2000mg/kg body weight) did not produce mortality or changes in general behaviour of the test animals. These results indicate the safety of the oral administration of ethyl acetate extract, aqueous extract and methanol fractionate of aqueous extract of Eichhornia crassipes.Item ADAPTING RUNGE - KUTTA LEARNING ALGORITHM IN ANFIS FOR THE PREDICTION OF COD FROM AN UP-FLOW ANAEROBIC FILTER(2013) Radha, VWater consumes vast area in the earth’s surface and safe drinking water is essential for humans and other organisms to survive in the world. Eliminating waste matters from water is the necessary requirement nowadays. The ultimate purpose of wastewater treatment is the protection of good quality water which is the most priceless resource. Use of Artificial Neural Network (ANN) models is gradually increasing to predict wastewater treatment plant variables. This detection helps the operators to take proper action and manage the process accordingly as per the norms. Anaerobic processes are often preferred to aerobic processes for treating waste streams that contain high Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) concentrations. Up-flow Anaerobic Filter (UAF) is a common process used for various anaerobic wastewater treatments. COD is used to measure the strength (in terms of pollution) of waste water. COD level in the effluents of the UAF determines the pollutants in the wastewater. The proposed method uses cheese whey as an influent. It is tested in the anaerobic reactor using COD test to predict the level of oxygen requirement of the effluent. Predicting the effluent parameters is a time consuming process when using Classical Models as it involves complexity and high non-linearity. Hence the proposed method uses an efficient technique namely Z-Score Normalization technique as a preprocessing step. Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) for feature selection process and Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) with RungeKutta Teaming Method (RKFM) as a learning algorithm is used for prediction of COD. Experiments conducted on a real data indicates that tlie application of Z-Score normalization schemes followed by a PSO feature selection and ANFIS with RKLM prediction results in better performance compared to other methods.Item Adoption of intervention strategies for high cardiac risk for women(2011) Thilagamani, SModem day changes in dietary and life style pattern are common causes for lifestyle disorders especially cardiovascular disease.

Rising affluence has modified the dietary pattern characteristics by increased consumption of fat, junk foods and physical inactivity which are directly related to health disorders. This study was undertaken with the objective to study the impact of intervention namely diet and regular physical activity among the women especially young between 20 and 40 years with high risk for cardiovascular diseases. The intervention was with a diet supplement and regular physical activity for the period of six months and was evaluated with the changes in the Body Mass Index, Waist Hip Ratio and lipid profile at pre and post intervention.Item Adsorption characteristics of Croton sparsiflorus Leaves extract on corrosion of Mild steel in acidic media(2016) Prithiba, A; ThilagavathiThe inhibition efficiency of leaves extract of Croton sparsiflorus{CSL) on corrosion of mild steel ini M HCI was carried out by mass loss and electrochemical techniques. To understand the nature of the adsorption process, thermodynamic and kinetic parameters were evaluated using temperature studies results, A maximum of 98 % inhibition efficiency was obtained for 0.7% concentration of CSL. Influence of temperature on the corrosion inhibitive nature of CSL was also studied. Thermodynamic parameters demonstrated that the inhibition was due to spontaneous adsorption of inhibitor on the metal surface. The inhibitor was found to follow Langmuir and Temkin adsorption isotherms. Electrochemical studies confirmed that CSL acted as mixed type inhibitor. Surface analytical studies further ascertained the inhibitive nature of the inhibitor.Item Adsorption of Chromium (VI) From Aqueous Solution Using Activated Carbon From the Pods of Wood Apple(2010) Lalitha, P; Renugadevi, NIn this study activated carbon from pods of wood apple, an agro waste has been used as an adsorbent for removal of Cr (VI) from aqueous solutions. Parameters, such as adsprbent dosage, concentration of the adsorbate, contact time, and pH were optimized with regard to Cr (VI) removal using the selected adsorbent. To analyze the efficiency of the activated carbon from wood apple (ACW) the experiments were also conducted with commercial activated carbon (ACC) and the result compared. The adsorption of Cr (VI) was found to be concentration and pH dependent. Percentage removal of Cr (VI) increased with decrease in pH and increase in adsorbent dosage for both ACC and ACW. On applying the adsorption data to Langmuir equation, linear plots of 1/Ce vs x/m obtained shows that the adsorption of Cr (VI) using activated carbon prepared from the pod of wood apple and commercially activated carbon followed Langmuir adsorption isotherm. Thus adsorption technique using activated carbon from agro wastes, like pods of wood apple is found to be an efficient method for the removal of heavy metals, like Cr (VI) from aqueous solutions.Item Adsorption of Maiachite Green Using a Low-Cost Activated Carbon Prepared From Cassia Fstuaf(2011) Lalitha, P; Renugadevi, Nin the present study the efficiency of the carbon adsorbent prepared from the Cassia fistula seeds was tested for the removal of malachite green dye from aqueous solution. The parameters, such as pH, adsorbent dosage and initial dye concentration were systematically evaluated. It is an N- methylated diaminotriphenyl methane dye widely used for colouring purpose and highly cytotoxic to mammalian cells. The percentage removal of malachite green increased with concentration of the dye solution. Nearly 40% adsorption was noted at pH 10 in 180 min of contact time at initial concentration of 4 0 0 mg/L with 3 0 0 mg of the low-cost adsorbent. Removal of malachite green increased from 2 4 .0 5 to 2 8 .2 3% with increasing adsorbent dosage from 3 0 0 to 600 mg in 180 min of agitation time, using 100 mL of dye solution of initial concentration of 4 0 0 mg/L. Langmiur adsorption isotherm plots and Freundlich adsorption isotherm plots were linear showing the applicability of the isotherms for malachite green adsorption.
