In this paper we presents a method for handling multiple metrics and different network parameters simultaneously to analyze the loss factor of routing protocols in mobile ad hoc network(MANET) environments. We have used Taguchi’ loss function to determine the best parameters giving maximum throughput, packet delivery ratio (PDR), average delay, DROP and routing over head simultaneously for AODV protocol. In this paper we have consider various different mobile ad hoc network parameters such as Terrain size, No of Nodes, No of source nodes, Packet transmission rate, Node speed, Pause time, Transmission range, Queue size, Antenna height and receiving power on a multiple signal to noise ratio (MNSR), performance and contribution level of parameters have been analyzed by analysis of variance (ANOVA). The analysis of results shows that the parameters which more affecting the AODV performance in mobile ad hoc networks are Queue size, Receiving power, Source node, Packet transmission rate, Antenna height and transmission range.

Moth species were collected from three different locations of Rajmahal hills in Jharkhand State of India from March 2011 to May 2013. Month-wise collection of moths was done using light trap and sweeping net. Totally 222 species of moths belonging to 18 different families were recorded. Family Erebidae contained higher number of subfamilies (11), genera (37) and species (74) and was the dominant family in the study area. Noctuidae, was the second largest family represented by 44 species. Moth population was very high during monsoon season. The diversity analysis clearly indicated that species evenness was closer to the maximum level during monsoon and winter periods. The present study clearly shows that Rajmahal hills are a suitable ecosystem for moth fauna in all seasons.

Sodium Nitrite is an example of crystal that were found to be ferroelectric a number of years after the discovery of their phase transitions. A change from a non-centrosymmetric to a centric structure is known to occur in NaNO2 at approximately 160 °C. This transition was discovered to be a ferroelectric in 1958. Above the Curie point, the structure is orthorhombic with lattice constants at 205 °C and space group Immm. The dielectric constant exhibits a sharp anomaly at the Curie point and obeys the Curie-Weiss law. The transition is obviously one of the first order. The spontaneous polarization is rather large, namely of the same order as that of KNO3. At 143 °C, Ps = 6.4x10-6 C/cm2, and the 50 c/s coercive field Ec = 2.3 kV/cm. The coercive field is is so large, at room temperature that hysteresis loops cannot be obtained with fields of the order of 25 kV/cm. Above the Curie point, these ions may oscillate along the [010] axis about positions which can be described in terms of the centrosymmetrical space group Immm, but there are also indications that this centric symmetry may be the result of random disorder.
