This book presents the select proceedings of the International Conference on Recent Advances in Materials, Manufacturing and Thermal Engineering (RAMMTE 2022). It broadly covers the topics of manufacturing and thermal engineering. Various topics covered in this book include alternative fuels, automation, mechatronics and robotics, CAD, CAM, FMS, CIM, CN, CFD, failure and fracture mechanics, friction, wear, tribology, and surface engineering, heat treatment, microstructure and refrigeration and cryogenics, heating ventilation and air conditioning system, heat transfer, internal combustion engines, machinability and formability of materials, mechanisms and machines, rapid manufacturing technologies and prototyping, turbo machinery, thermal engineering, and traditional and non-traditional machining processes. This book is useful for researchers and professionals working in the areas of manufacturing and thermal engineering.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Third International Workshop on Fault Diagnosis and Tolerance in Cryptography, FDTC 2006, held in Yokohama, Japan in October 2006. The 12 revised papers of FDTC 2006 are presented together with nine papers from FDTC 2004 and FDTC 2005 that passed a second round of reviewing. They all provide a comprehensive introduction to the issues faced by designers of robust cryptographic devices.

Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences was first conceived, published, and disseminated by the Center for Information and Numerical Data Analysis and Synthesis (CINDAS) * at Purdue University in 1957, starting its coverage of theses with the academic year 1955. Beginning with Volume 13, the printing and dissemination phases of the activity were transferred to University Microfilms/Xerox of Ann Arbor, Michigan, with the thougtit that such an arrangement would be more beneficial to the academic and general scientific and technical community. After five years of this joint undertaking we had concluded that it was in the interest of all con cerned if the printing and distribution of the volumes were handled by an interna tional publishing house to assure improved service and broader dissemination. Hence, starting with Volume 18, Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences has been disseminated on a worldwide basis by Plenum Publishing Cor poration of New York, and in the same year the coverage was broadened to include Canadian universities. All back issues can also be ordered from Plenum. We have reported in Volume 31 (thesis year 1986) a total of 11 ,480 theses titles trom 24 Canadian and 182 United States universities. We are sure that this broader base tor these titles reported will greatly enhance the value ot this important annual reterence work. While Volume 31 reports theses submitted in 1986, on occasion, certain univer sities do re port theses submitted in previousyears but not reported at the time.

The idea of Māyā pervades Indian philosophy. It is enigmatic, multivalent, and foundational, with its oldest referents found in the Rig Veda. This book explores Māyā's rich conceptual history, and then focuses on the highly developed theology of Māyā found in the Sanskrit Bhāgavata Purāṇa, one of the most important Hindu sacred texts. Gopal K. Gupta examines Māyā's role in the Bhāgavata's narratives, paying special attention to its relationship with other key concepts in the text, such as human suffering (duḥkha), devotion (bhakti), and divine play (līlā). In the Bhāgavata, Māyā is often identified as the divine feminine, and has a far-reaching influence. For example, Māyā is both the world and the means by which God creates the world, as well as the facilitator of God's play, paradoxically revealing him to his devotees by concealing his majesty. While Vedānta philosophy typically sees Māyā as a negative force, the Bhāgavata affirms that Māyā also has a positive role, as Māyā is ultimately meant to draw living beings toward Krishna and intensify their devotion to him.
