Abstract: The method and computer implemented system disclosed herein provides options to a user for deleting or editing a message (a message may include text, audio, image, video and/or animations) that has been sent in a messaging application in a recipient's device without any restriction (e.g. without a tune limit). In one embodiment, the sending device detects a user request to delete or edit the message that has been sent to one or more recipients (e.g. group chat), the request is sent to a message server, and the message server further transmits the request to the recipient device so that the recipient device may delete or edit the message.

Abstract: A method used for concentration of fluid milk by renewable energy (RE). RE used in the present invention is sole solar energy (SE) at room temperature (25° C.-27° C.). A device of two glass Petri dishes of same size is arranged as upper and lower plates. A volume of 60 ml of pasteurized bovine or camel milk is put in the upper plate and 60 ml of tap water in the lower plate. The device is placed on the bench beside window to be exposed to sunlight, but not to direct sunrays, at room temperature. After about 30 mins water droplets started to appear on the lower face of the upper plate and increased in size with time. With continuous collection of water droplets for 24 hours, 50% of water is removed i.e. giving 50% concentration of milk; after 48 hours the concentration is 16.67%.

Abstract: In the present invention, inventors report the characterization of BCLA (Brain Cyst Load-associated Antigen), a protein exclusively expressed during the bradyzoite stage of the parasite. In cysts directly purified from the brain of mice, the protein is distributed within and at the surface of the cyst. ELISA antibody capture using a combination of serologically reactive BCLA peptides and a recombinantly expressed c-terminal domain (rBCLA) constitutes an efficient serological marker of latent infection with a high sensitivity that is clearly and exclusively correlated with the presence of cysts in the brain of mice Antibodies directed against BCLA antigen have been detected in human patients with enriched titers in patients qualified as seropositive to Sag1 or tachyzoite related antigens. Further correlation in humans between anti-BCLA IgG synthesis and cysts is brought by significantly stronger recorded titers in pathological panels strongly related to the presence of cyst.

Abstract: Reduced computation time for model predictive control (MPC) of a five level dual T-type drive considering the DC link capacitor balancing, the common-mode voltage (CMV) along with torque control of an open-ends induction motor based on determining a reduced set of switching states for the MPC. The reduced set of switching states are determined by considering either CMV reduction (CMVR) or CMV elimination (CMVE). Cost function minimization generates a voltage vector, which is used to produce gating signals for the converter switches. The reduced switching state MPC significantly reduces computation time and improves MPC performance.

Abstract: A system, method, and non-transitory computer readable medium for diagnosing stator inter-turn faults in a Line Start Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (LSPMSM) are described. The method of diagnosing stator inter-turn faults in the LSPMSM includes collecting acoustic signals that are generated from a LSPMSM by a communication device, analyzing via singular spectrum analysis (SSA) the collected acoustic signals for fault detection of the stator inter-turn faults, and determining a fault diagnosis for the fault detection by executing a Fast Fourier Transform (FFT).

Abstract: The present invention generally relates to system and methods to avoid/reduce delay with SMS delivery in Dual SIM Dual Standby (DSDS) devices. As per the proposed solution, retry timer is stopped once Refresh Register is received for SIM-2 (i.e. Stand by SIM) to indicate the service resume and delivery the SMS immediately. The proposed solution has scope of Change Request with 3GPP to update the SMSC retry algorithm based on Refresh Register from service resumed SIM.
