The Talya Conglomerate: an Archean (∼2.7 Ga) Glaciomarine formation, Western Dharwar Craton, Southern India

Abstract: The ∼2700 Ma Talya Conglomerate is Comprised of 15 Diamictites (i.e. Matrix-supported Conglomerates) Interbedded with Mudstone and Sandstone Units, and is Interpreted as a Glaciomarine Deposit. the Entire Thickness of This Conglomeratic Member within the Vanivilas formation, the Lowest formation of the Chitradurga Group of the Neoarchean Dharwar Supe Rgroup, is Exposed in a 543 M-thick Measured Section. it is in a Sub-vertical Attitude, is Highly Sheared, and has Undergone Greenschist Facies Metamorphism. the Diamictites had an Original Matrix of Laminated Mud/Silt and Fine Sand. while Including Diamictites Throughout, the Talya is a Fining-upward Sequence with Intercalated Sandstones Dominant in its Lower Portion and Mudstones Dominant in its Upper Portion. we Interpret that the Talya Conglomerate was Deposited in a Marine Environment, with Diamictites Composed of Ice-rafted Detritus (ird) Deposited from Icebergs Calved from Tidewater Glacier Tongues And/or possibly from Ice Shelves. in these 'rainout Diamictites' the Larger Clasts were Dropped into Finegrained Bottom Sediment Deposited by Sediment Plumes and Currents. the Source Ice Sheet was Located to the West and Southwest on a Land Mass that Included the Older than 2720 Ma Bababudan Group of Quartzites and Mafic Volcanics and Older than 3000 Ma Basement of Granitic/gneissic Rocks. Application of Walther's Law Indicates that the Mudstonebearing Portion of the Talya was Deposited upon the Sandstone-bearing Portion as the Sea further Inundated the Land Mass Due to Glacial Retreat and a Decrease in Glacial Mass, thereby Resulting in the Fining- upward Nature of the Talya Conglome Rate. we also Interpret the Lower Portion of the Kaldurga Conglomerate, Located 50-75 Km to the Southwest of the Talya, to be Equivalent with the Talya. the Kaldurga Contains mostly Granitic Basement Detritus, perhaps Exposed Due to Basement Uplift Related to Isostatic Rebound Caused by Glacial Melting or Due to Tectonism Related to Westward Subduction.

Accuracy Prediction for Distributed Decision Tree using Machine Learning approach

Abstract: Machine Learning is one of the finest fields of Computer Science world which has given the innumerable and invaluable solutions to the mankind to solve its complex problems. Decision Tree is one such modern solution to the decision making problems by learning the data from the problem domain and building a model which can be used for prediction supported by the systematic analytics. In order to build a model on a huge dataset Decision Tree algorithm needs to be transformed to manifest itself into distributed environment so that higher performance of training the model is achieved in terms of time, without compromising the accuracy of the Decision Tree built. In this paper, we have proposed an enhanced version of distributed decision tree algorithm to perform better in terms of model building time without compromising the accuracy.

Surface roughness effects on squeeze film behavior in porous circular disks with couple stress fluid

Abstract: The effect of surface roughness on squeeze film behavior between two circular disks with couple stress lubricant is analyzed when the upper disk has porous facing which approaches the lower disk with uniform velocity. The modified Stochastic Reynolds equation is derived on the basis of Stokes micro-continuum theory for couple stress fluid and Christensen Stochastic theory for the rough surface. Closed form solution of the Stochastic Reynolds equation is obtained in terms of Fourier–Bessel series. The importance of roughness and couple stress on bearing characteristics are presented in terms of load carrying capacity, squeeze time, and relative percentage of the load. It is observed that, effect of couple stress fluid, and surface roughness is more pronounced compared to classical case. These predictions enable design engineers to choose suitable parameters.
