The development of reconstructed woody vegetation on coal mine dumps during the trajectory of reclamation was explicitly investigated by means of a rehabilitation technique. However, limited information is available about the composition of herbaceous species during the ecosystem re-development on mine dumps. The present study attempted to assess the composition of herbaceous vegetation beneath plantation stands of four native woody species on the coal mine spoil in a dry tropical environment. After a thorough survey of the study site, a total of 44 species of herbaceous plants belonging to 14 families were recorded. Among the recorded plant families, the Poaceae contributed the highest number of species (18) across all ages of all plantation stands. The biodiversity parameter such as species richness exhibited an increasing trend with age under plantation stand of T. grandis only, while the rest of the plantations showed a decreasing trend. In terms of the similarity index, the plantation stands of A. procera and T. grandis were closer to each other while A. lebbeck and D. strictus were farthest apart. However, the highest IVI was recorded in the seedling of A. lebbeck under the planted stand of A. lebbeck while lowest of Rungia repens (2.85) under A. procera stands at 17th-year of age. In conclusion, the plantation age, dominant tree species, and species specificity have a significant impact on the development of herbaceous vegetation beneath the plantation stand of four native woody species.

Reliability analysis of an industrial system under cost-free warranty and system rest policy

The aim of this paper is to analyze a system, which consists of two components, working under a cost-free warranty policy. Past literature reflects that till now the focus of researchers is those systems which work without taking rest. But here authors emphasized on an industrial system which takes rest after working for a specific amount of time. This strategy helps the system to run for a long time with less failure. After taking rest, the system starts its working again. During the mathematical modeling of the system various state of the same are critically analyzed. Reliability of the considered system has been obtained for the different combinations of failure and repair rates. Also, the various parameters which affect the system performance have been evaluated.
