The global pandemic led to major changes in the operation of all kinds of businesses throughout the world, which had a great impact on the engineering industry in ways no one could have predicted. But challenges always create opportunity. It’s time to make 2021 your year of success. Al-Hamdolillah, before start of Covid-19 in KSA, we organized all our seminars and picnic as usual; however the annual seminar planned in April, 2020 could not be executed due to lock down situation. Although by the grace of Allah SWT we managed to organize two seminars during mid of our 2019-20 session; one in November and the other in December, 2019. Even during the difficult time of pandemic we managed to organize a mid-term on-line seminar in September, 2020 on the topic “University-Industry Liaison and Pakistani Diaspora” delivered by Prof. Dr. Sarosh Hashmat Lodhi, V.C. NEDUET, Karachi. It is well known and proven fact that a large portion of the economic growth of any nation is the result of knowledge intensive activities which involve academic and systematic research on issues and problems faced by the industry. In developed nations the systematic research was introduced in the society by gradual legislation. From this forum I would like to raise the voice of all Pakistani engineers in KSA to our government to make appropriate legislation, so that a knowledge sharing relationship between academia and industry could be developed. We always insist on the quality and standardization of the education; since collapse of education system is the collapse of nation. In the annual seminar on 15th January, 2021, we are going to present our new IEP-SAC digital journal for the year 2020-21. Sustaining our legacy from past several years, this journal includes messages from various organizations and personalities, numerous technical papers, annual report by the GS, Eastern region sub-centre report, scholarship committee report, pictures of various events in Central and Eastern regions and the famous directory of Pakistani Engineers in KSA with recent updates. The Institution of Engineers Pakistan – Saudi Arabian Centre (IEP-SAC) is providing a platform to all Pakistani engineers in KSA to excel their skills, share knowledge through seminars and technical papers, socialize among engineers along with their families, and help needy / meritorious engineering students in Pakistan; all done under the patronization of Pakistani Embassy. On behalf of IEP-SAC, I would like to express the gratitude to the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques, King Salman bin Abdul Aziz Al-Saud, Crown prince HRH Muhammad bin Salman bin Abdul Aziz and the Government of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia for their hospitality and cooperation to Pakistani community and engineers in KSA. We are grateful to H.E. the Ambassador of Islamic Republic of Pakistan and embassy staff for their unceasing support and patronage to IEP-SAC. I extend my accolade to all of our council members in Central and Eastern regions for their dedication and commitment towards the IEP-SAC goals and objectives. We shall exert our utmost efforts to come up to the expectations of our beloved father of nation Quaid-e-Azam Mohammad Ali Jinnah, which he mentioned at the time of inaugural of IEP in 1948 that we shall not only benefit the engineers themselves by improving their technical knowledge but also bring lasting benefits to public services which they are called upon to perform. Finally, I would like deliver a message in the form of a hadith which has been narrated by Abu Huraira (May Allah be pleased with him. The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “The wise saying (i.e. ,is the lost property of the believer, so wherever he finds it then he has a right to get it.” So (حكمــت Knowledge or it is our duty to find the knowledge and get it with high excellence. Best regards and good wishes for all

IEP-SAC Journal 2020-21 11 Annual Report by General Secretary

The year 2020 is now gone, but it has left quite many scars and unanswerable queries. Some see this year as a redemption for humanity, and others see it as a precursor to the greater challenges we are yet to face. Whatever the case maybe, this year opened up many new tangents for us to ponder. After all the advancements in Science and Technology, we saw the social fabric torn apart by a virus. The enormity of the challenge showed us the vulnerabilities of our societies and the lifestyles we follow. This year forever changed the lives of millions of us; the families who lost their dear ones during this pandemic. This is just one side of the story. The other side is the way people responded to this pandemic. The authorities implemented the restrictions and the masses adopted the new rules and modes of operations instantly. Never has any vaccine been released in such a short time, and that also in enormous quantities. The tech companies quickly adopted their infrastructure to the sudden surge for internet bandwidth, users’ connectivity and processing powers for services availability. Businesses embraced the situation and adopted remote working modes. When the paradigm shifted for established businesses, new business venues were also quickly explored and adopted. Institution of Engineers Pakistan Saudi Arabian Chapter (IEPSAC) was not an exception during this situation. The organization also adopted the changed realities and introduced online meetings and seminars. Never had IEPSAC conducted any online technical seminar before. This year several technical seminars were conducted in Central and Eastern regions which were appreciated by the community. The details of IEPSAC events since the previous publication of the annual journal in May 2019 is as follows:

IEPSAC Annual Seminar 2019 The annual seminar was arranged on Thurs Apr 11, 2019 at King Salman Social Center. The topic of the seminar was “PAKISTAN WATER SECURITY INFRASTRUCTURE – ROLE OF ENGINEERING PROFESSION” delivered by Prof. Shahbaz Khan, Director Regional Science Bureau for Asia and the Pacific and UNESCO Representative for multiple Asian countries and the Research Director for Irrigation system in Australia. The Chief Guest at the occasion was the Welfare Attaché at the Embassy of Pakistan in Saudi Arabia, Mr. Abdul Shakoor Shaikh. In his presentation, Professor Khan said that Pakistan could become from “Water deficit” to “Water Secure” country by adopting the research based globally accepted methods. The systematic approach to achieve this objective in the next 10-12 years should focus to have sufficient and reliable water supplies, healthy and resilient rivers and productive water agriculture. He advised the engineering community

12 IEP-SAC Journal 2020-21 to lead the awareness campaign of water challenges and present the workable solutions to the decision and policy powerhouses in the country. The session was followed by the question and answer session which was conducted by Dr. Rafiq Choudhry. The chief guest, Mr. Abdul Shakoor Sheikh said that Pakistani engineers are playing a vital role in the development of the brotherly country of Saudi Arabia. He praised the expertise and hard work of the learned guest speaker to present the water crisis of Pakistan and suggesting workable solutions. The Chairman of IEPSAC, Engr. Syed Muhammad Iqbal praised the guest speaker for traveling all the way from Jakarta to deliver the scholarly and informative lecture on the subject. Shields were presented to the advertisers and sponsors of IEPSAC in recognition of their support for the organization. Certificates of appreciation were also presented to the authors of research papers published in IEPSAC annual journal 2019. The IEPSAC 2019 annual journal and a souvenir gift were distributed among the participants and the event concluded with the dinner. IEPSAC Mid-Term Seminar To raise the awareness on the global issue of Environmental Pollution, IEPSAC arranged a technical seminar on Friday, 22nd of Nov. 2019 on the topic “Environmental Pollution: Causes, Effects and Control with Emphasis on Islamic Perspective” delivered by Engr. Syed Mubashir Hussain Kirmani. The chief guest at the occasion was the Welfare counselor of the Embassy of Pakistan, Mr. Mahmoud Lateef. The Engr. Kirmani, a Civil Engineer having more than 52 years of experience in diversified fields and author of twenty-five technical papers in international journals, said that the main human-induced sources of Air pollution are power plants, automobiles, waste management, deforestation and others. Since the industrial revolution, the concentration of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere has disrupted the earth’s delicate climate balance, causing a rise in global temperature. He said that this mammoth issue of environmental pollution is self- inflicted by humans. He mentioned several verses of the Holy Quran describing the ill effects of the human actions on the environment. Engr. Kirmani said that the Islamic perspective to control Environmental pollution based on the teaching of Quran and Sunnah is the best ethical code of conduct to build a low-emission climate resilient future. Engr. Rizwan Ahmad, the Chairman of IEPSAC Eastern region and Guest of Honor on the occasion, appreciated the informative presentation by Engr. Kirmani. The chief guest, Mr. Mahmoud Lateef said that it is an irony that the developed countries in general enjoy clean environment and good quality of life, while the 3rd world countries, like Pakistan suffer from the environmental pollution issues caused by industrial powers of the world. Engr. Syed Muhammad Iqbal, the chairman of IEPSAC, said that IEPSAC had been instrumental in raising the awareness on the important global issues from engineering perspective. He thanked the attendees of the event for making it a successful seminar through their participation. IEPSAC Mid-Term Seminar Rector, NUTECH PAKISTAN, LT. GEN. (RTD) Khalid Asghar delivered a seminar on the topic “Pakistan’s Need for Vocational Education and Training” on Dec 30, 2019. The Chief Guest on the occasion was the Ambassador of Pakistan, his Excellency Raja Ali Ejaz. Gen. (RTD) Khalid

IEP-SAC Journal 2020-21 13 Asghar said that Human resource development is our national imperative. Well-structured Engineering Technologies and Skills education through Vocational institutions is the only way forward for us. With this objective in mind, National University of Technology (NUTECH) is established as a pioneer ‘University for Industry’ to create, develop and promote emerging technologies and skills for the country. The Ambassador of Pakistan to Saudi Arabia, His Excellency Raja Ali Ejaz informed the audience that MoU was signed between NUTECH and Saudi Institutions during the visit of Gen. Khalid Asghar to Saudi Arabia. He also appreciated IEPSAC for arranging a seminar on Vocational training on a short notice once the availability of Gen. Khalid Asghar was confirmed.

Family Picnic Annual family picnic was arranged on Friday, Feb 07 2020 at a venue in Muzahimiyah. This yearly event has become a tradition for IEPSAC where people enjoy relaxing atmosphere and fun activities all day long. Activities were arranged for every age group and kept the families engaged for the whole day. Several dignitaries from the Embassy of Pakistan in Saudi Arabia attended the event along with their families. Children were enthralled to compete in various games organized. Youth had a chance to burn their energies in Cricket, table tennis and several other group activities. Large crowds were gathered to watch the teams compete in Cricket tournament, tug of war and musical chair. Poetic and literary values mesmerized the participants during the Musha’era and Quiz competition. Numerous gifts were given during the lucky draw session. Female section was ever energetic with games, performance, riddles, jokes and enjoyment for all age groups. A local caterer provided delicious breakfast and lunch prepared at the venue. Tea and snacks were made available during the whole day.

First Online Mid-Term Seminar Due to unexpected and uncertain pandemic situation, the Annual seminar of IEPSAC could not be arranged in summer. Therefore, the council decided to conduct an online seminar for the local Pakistani Engineers community. The online event was organized on Thurs Sep 10, 2020. Prof. Dr. Sarosh Hashmat Lodi, the VC of NED University of Engineering and Technology was the keynote speaker who delivered a lecture on a very relevant topic for overseas Pakistani community “University Industry Liaison and Pakistani Diaspora”. In his presentation, Dr Sarosh Lodi said that the rapid technological development in recent past has been reshaping the modern world by revolutionizing the industrial practices. To bridge the gap between academic knowledge and industrial practices, it is critically important to strengthen the linkage between academia and industry. From industry perspective, University- Industry Linkage (UIL) is effective in terms of having technological development at lower cost of research by virtue of availability of low-cost workforce as students and faculty of University are at one place. From university perspective, academicians get to know the latest demand of the local, national and international markets. Dr Lodi said that Pakistani Diaspora can play a vital role in bridging the gap between industry and academia. The Chief Guest of the event and Political Office at the Embassy of Pakistan, Mr. Saif appreciated the models presented by Dr Lodi in his presentation. He also commended the seminar 14 IEP-SAC Journal 2020-21 arrangement by IEPSAC on this relevant topic.

IEPSAC Central Region Council The approved by-laws of IEPSAC necessitates the election of the Chairman at the end of the biennial term. The election was conducted on Oct 23, 2020. The Council re-elected Engr. S. M. Iqbal as the chairman of IEP-SAC for the next biennial term of 2021-22. Engr. Iqbal said that he was humbled by the demonstration of trust and confidence on him by the council members. He attributed the successes of the organization during the past two years to the Help of Allah SWT and excellent teamwork of council members. He nominated Engr. Asim Siddiqui as the General secretary, who later on nominated Engr. Farooq Iqbal as the Joint secretary of the organization. The council ratified the nominations and appreciated their capabilities and offered full support to them. The convener of IEPSAC Scholarship committee, Engr. Shaikh Akhtar Hussain shifted to Canada after his retirement from the company. The Council thanked him for his instrumental role in driving the scholarship program of IEPSAC and bid him farewell. Two new members, Engr. Imran Ashraf and Engr. Dr. Fakhir Hasni joined the council in early 2020. The council hoped that their profiles and caliber would be a valuable addition to the council and wouldhelp towards the causes of IEPSAC.

IEP-SAC has three (3) centers in KSA, comprising a main center in Riyadh (Central Region) and two sub-centers in Eastern and Western regions. All centers are very active in organizing various technical seminars and other social events mainly for the Pakistani engineering community in KSA. Detailed reports about the activities of the sub-centers from their chairmen with photographs are also included on the subsequent pages of this annual journal.

We express our gratitude to the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques, King Salman Bin Abdul Aziz and the Crown Prince Muhammad Bin Salman for facilitating Pakistanis in general and Pakistani engineering community in particular to contribute towards the development of our brotherly country Saudi Arabia. We are also thankful to the patronage and support of the Ambassador of Pakistan His Excellency Raja Ali Ejaz and his team throughout the year. The contribution of IEP-SAC Eastern region (Engr. Rizwan Ahmed and his local council members) in raising the funds for our scholarship program is highly appreciated. I wish to extend my thanks to all engineers, sponsors, advertisers, press/media personnel and well-wishers for their cooperation and continuous support to IEP-SAC.

Warmest Regards, Engr. Mohammad Asim Siddiqui General Secretary, IEPSAC

20 IEP-SAC Journal 2020-21 What is Data Science?

Data Science is a blend of various tools, algorithms, and machine learning principles with the goal to discover hidden patterns from the raw data. How is this different from what statisticians have been doing for years? The answer lies in the difference between explaining and predicting. Data science continues to evolve as one of the most promising and in-demand career paths for skilled professionals. Today, successful data professionals understand that they must advance past the traditional skills of analysing large amounts of data, data mining, and programming skills. In order to uncover useful intelligence for their organizations, data scientists must master the full spectrum of the data science life cycle and possess a level of flexibility and understanding to maximize returns at each phase of the process.

he Almighty blessed us with the Islamic republic of Pakistan on 14th August 1947 and put Tit on the horizon of the world map. The dream of Sir Allama Muhammad Iqbal, around December 1930, was later espoused by M. Ali Jinnah in the “Two Nation Theory” and adopted into the famous 23rd March 1940 Lahore resolution. Allama Iqbal’s dream came true eventually with a total area of 796096 sq. km and a now thriving 203 million inhabitants. Pakistan is home to K-2, the second highest peak of the world, with 108 peaks above 7000 meters including 5 of the world’s 14 highest independent peaks. The first Muslim nuclear power, having over 150 universities, 400 technical and vocational institutions, Pakistan also boasts the world’s largest earth filled dam, Tarbela Dam, and has the world’s biggest canal irrigation system. Helping to build a Better Pakistan, the Institution of Engineers Pakistan (IEP) was founded with the blessing of the father of the nation, Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah in 1948, and has now expanded to 10 centres in Pakistan and overseas centres in Kingdom of Saudi Arabia for more than 22 years. IEP is member of: • World Federation of Engineering Organization • Consortium of Affiliates for International Program • Federation of Engineering Institutions of Islamic countries • Federation of Engineering Institutions of South and Central Asia • Commonwealth Engineers Council • American Association for Advancement of Science (AAAS) • 33 other Foreign Professional Societies Eastern province sub-centre is actively performing its roles and responsibilities to establish and promote excellent relationship and interaction among its members and other professionals.

The looming shortages and worsening Hydrological Program (IHP), water security quality of water have become serious threats to food, health, energy, job security and, therefore, to the delivery of 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Cities have run out of safe drinking water, agriculture shows lower crop yields as crops remain thirsty, there are vast salinized floodplains below Kotri Barrage, and drying polluted wetlands like Lake Manchar have become sad environmental disasters. A National Water Policy (Government of Pakistan 2018) and a National Climate Policy (Government of Pakistan 2012) exist, but the crisis seems to become worse as implementation roadmaps and action plans are missing. This situation requires extraordinary measures as business- as-usual is no longer an option. This article provides a diagnostic water balance analysis of existing data on water availability, water demands, future water availability scenarios and implementable solutions to lead Pakistan from water scarcity to water security.

Through their The objective of this research was to examine specialized services, subcontractors execute the existing subcontracting practices in the specific tasks that prime contractors could not construction industry of Pakistan, identify perform efficiently (Markowitz 2007). These the major problem areas and to explore the tasks are assigned to lower-tier contractors overall satisfaction with the quality of service known as subcontractors. On numerous provided by subcontractors in Pakistan. building projects, commonly 80% to 90% of the tasks are performed by subcontractors (Hinze Methodology and Tracey 1994). Most prime contractors This study used mixed research method and sublet large portions or all of the specialized a questionnaire survey was utilized as the work on their projects due to their inability main research instrument. It was decided to perform specialist tasks, e.g. plumbing, that the information would be obtained electrical work and insulation etc. While prime through mailed questionnaires and personal contractors are commonly known to sublet interviews, which would yield detailed portions of their work, subcontractors also information. A detailed literature review was sublet a portion of their contract to other conducted and a number of questionnaires specialized firms, commonly known as lower- (developed by other researchers) were examined. tier subcontractors or sub-subcontractors. Tailoring the study to the construction industry In the housing sector of Hong Kong the of Pakistan, the survey instrument was finalized employment of direct labor accounts for based on the research of Sit and Wong (1989) around 1% of the construction work whereas and John (1991). The questionnaire was further 99% of the work is subcontracted (Lai 1987). modified by incorporating feedback of the pilot The extensive practice of subcontracting is also survey to suit it for the construction industry. For reported in other countries, including the UK this purpose, ten questionnaires were presented (Flanagan and Gray 1989) and Japan (Kimura in different organization: universities (2), clients (2), 2002). It is argued that prime contractors consultants (2) and contractors / subcontractors maximize their profits by minimizing their (4), followed by interviews with each participant. performance costs through subcontracting A five-point scale with one being ‘extremely (Richter 1982). important’ and five being ‘not important’ was utilized to solicit the perceptions on the Subcontracting is practiced for a variety of degree of importance of various practices. reasons. It is not possible for companies to own, operate, control, and maintain The questionnaire was sent to top registered specialized plant and equipment as these firms with the Pakistan Engineering Council generally receive limited usage on a typical (PEC), including clients, consultants and project (John 1991). Because of these unique contractors. According to PEC data, the skills, subcontractors are able to execute their number of building and civil engineering specialized work tasks more efficiently and at establishments registered in Pakistan a lower cost than prime contractors (Lin 2003). reached 26,000. For this population size, Dillman (2000) provided a sample size of In the construction industry of Pakistan, 61 is enough with ±10% sampling error and subcontracting practices are extensively for 95% confidence level.

Respondents views of subcontractor quality due to subcontracting performance Performance and Level of Satisfaction with Subcontracting Respondents were asked to rate the performance of subcontractors on a scale ranging from ‘very good’, ‘good’, ‘fair’, ‘bad’, and ‘very bad’. Respondents graded the performance of subcontractors as ‘good’ 42%, ‘fair’ 55%; and ‘bad’ 3%. None of the respondents regarded it as ‘very good’ or ‘very bad’ (see Fig. 4 and Fig. 5). Interviews revealed that subcontracting is not an ideal arrangement when it affects the quality of work negatively. Respondents still consider subcontracting as a better arrangement than employing their own direct labor and the results of Kruskal Wallis test provided a value of 0.991 (significance < Fig. 5.

Nonetheless, interviews indicate that current subcontracting practices need improvement. Despite concerns, respondents generally feel that subcontracting will continue to flourish as long as it provides flexibility and other benefits to construction firms.

On use as engineering product the future of all top of that Graphene is an excellent conductor technologies. of heat and electricity and has interesting light absorption abilities. Introduction: It is truly a material that could change the Technological advances drive the course world with unlimited potential for integration of history. With the advent of “Electron in almost any industry. microscope” Graphene was originally observed History: in 1962 ,but only studied while supported on metal surfaces(1). The material was later The theory of Graphene was first explored by discovered isolated and characterized in 2004 P.R.Wallace in 1947 as a by “ Andre Gzim “ and “ Konstantin Novoselov” Starting point for understanding the electronic 66 IEP-SAC Journal 2020-21 properties of 3D graphite. The emergent Graphene is the strongest material mass less Dirac equation (3) was first pointed ever tested with an intrinsic tensile out by Gordon Walter Semen off and David P. strength of 130 Gpa (19,000,000 Psi) Divincenzo and Eugene. J. Mele (4). and a Young’s modulus (stiffness) of 1TPa (150.000.000Psi) (9) Starting in 1970s single layer graphite were grown epitaxially on top of other material (5). Graphene is very light . It weighs just 0.77 This “ epitaxial grapheme” consists of a single mg per square meter( About 0.001% of atom thick hexagonal lattice of carbon atoms weight of 1 sq.meter of paper(10). Since as free standing Graphene. it is a single 2D sheet, it has the highest surface area of all materials. When In 2004 Andre Geim and Novoselov at left to themselves Graphene sheet will university of Manchester extracted single stack and form graphite, which is the atom thick crystallites from bulk graphite (2). most stable 3D form of carbon under They pulled Graphene layers from graphite normal conditions. and transferred them on to thin SiO2 on a Silicon wafer in a process called either Graphene sheets are flexible and in micromechanical cleavage or the Scotch tape fact Graphene is the most stretchable technique (6). The SiO2 electrically isolated crystal. You can stretch it up to 20% the raphene and weakly interacted with it of it’s initial size without breaking it. ,providing nearly charge neutral Graphene Graphene is also highly impermeable layers. and even helium atoms can not pass through it. Geim and Novoselov received several awards for their pioneering research on Graphene, 3) Chemical : notably the 2010 Nobel prize in Physics. Graphene is only form of Carbon (or In 2016 Brown university ( Providence ,Rhode solid material) in which every atom is island united states) introduced a method for avaialable for chemical reaction from “crumpling “ Graphene adding wrinkles to two sides( Due to the 2D structure). the material on a nanoscale. The crumpled Atoms at the edge of Graphene Graphene became superhydrophobic, and sheet have special chemical reactivity .Graphene has the highest ratio of when used as a battery electrode the material edge atoms of any allotrope. The onset was shown to have as much as 400% increase temperature of reaction between the in electro chemical current density (7). basal plane of single layer graphene Properties: and oxygen is below 260 degree celcius. Graphene burns at very low 1) Specific surface area: temperature (e.g: 350 degree C). Graphene is commonly modified Graphene has a theoretical specific with oxygen and Nitrogen containing surface area of 2630 squaremetes functional groups and analyzed by per gram. This is much larger than infra red spectroscopy and x-ray photo that reported to date for carbon black electron spectroscopy. (Typically 900 square meters per gram) In 2013, Stanford university physicists or for carbon nanotubes ( CNTs), from reported that single-layer graphene 100 to 1000 square meters per gram is a hundred times more chemically and similar to activated carbon (8). reactive than thicker sheets (11). 2) Mechanical & Physical : 4) Electronic:

IEP-SAC Journal 2020-21 67 One of the most useful properties of to think of a wide range of uses for Graphene is that it is the material in wide range of field as consumer tech. and environmental a zero-overlap semimetal (with both science. A few potential applications holes and electrons as charge carriers) are as following: with every high electrical conductivity. 1) Solar cell/ Photovoltaics: Carbon atoms have 6 electrons, 2 in the inner shell and 4 in the outer shell. Graphene is both highly conductive Graphene is a zero gap semi conductor, and transparent. As such it has g r e a t because it’s potential as a material in solae cell. Typically , solar cells use silicon which conduction and valence met the Dirac produce a charge when a photon hits points. the materials, knocking loose a 5) Permittivity: free electron. Silicon only releases one electron per photon that hits it. Graphene’s permittivity varies with Research has indicated that graphene frequency. At frequency near DC can release multiple electrons for it is near 6.9 (12). Over a range each photon that hits it. As a result from microwave to millimeter wave graphene could be better at converting frequencies it is roughly 3.3 (13). This solar energy. Before long , permittivity combined with the ability cheaper, more powerful graphene to form both conductors and insulators, cells could produce a massive s u r g e means that theoretically compact in renewable energy. Graphene’s capacitors made of graphene could photovoltaic properties also mean store large amount of electrical energy. that it could be used to develop better sensors for devices as a camera. 6) Optical: 2) Semiconductors: Graphene’s unique optical properties Due to it’s high conductivity graphene produce an unexpectedly high opacity could be used in semiconductors for an atomic mono layer in vacuum , to greatly increase the speed at absorbing about 2.3% of red light (14) which information travels. Recently 7) Thermal Conductivity: conducted tests demonstrated that semi-conductive polymers conduct Thermal conductivity of Graphene is an electricity much faster when placed area of research atop a layer of graphene than a layer of which has attracted attention of the Silicon. This holds true even if polymer scientists because of the potential for is thicker. thermal management applications. 3) Water filtration: Early measurement of thermal conductivity of suspended graphene Graphene’s tight atomic bonds make it reported an exceptionally large thermal impermeable for nearly all gases and conductivity of approx.. 5300 w/m/k (15) liquids. Strangely, water molecules compared with thermal conductivity of are an exception. Because water can Pyrolic graphite of approx..2000 w/m/k evaporate through graphene while at room temperature. However it needs most other gases and liquids can not. further investigation and confirmation. Graphene could be an exceptional tool for filtration. Researchers at Potential applications: the university of Manchester tested Having so remarkable properties, graphene’s permeability with alcohol Graphene has inspired scientists and were able distill very strong sample 68 IEP-SAC Journal 2020-21 of spirit, as only the water in the sample • Water Filter was able to pass through the graphene. • Antennas Graphene could also be immensely • Touch Screens( For LCD or OLED helpful in purifying water from toxins.

The implication of this study are massive, some of the biggest environmental hazards in history, including nuclear waste and chemical run off, could be cleansed from water sources ---thanks to Graphene. 4) Super conductivity : Scientists at Cambridge demonstrated that Graphene can act as a superconductor ( A material with no electrical resistance)when paired with praseodymium cerium copper oxide. Researches at MIT discovered Graphene –CNTs Buckyballs-image another astounding property that it can apparently function as a Conclusion: super conductor alone in the right configuration. Graphene is a new “ super material “,one atom thick layer of Carbon ( Carbon atom has a 1) Other potential applications: diameter of about 0.33 nanometer.there are Since the 2010 Nobel prize in Physics about 3 million layers of graphene in 1 mm of went to Andre Geim and Konstantin graphite),Thinnner than paper, stronger than Novoselo who first isolated Graphene steel,harder than diamond yet more elactic in 2004, Graphene is getting lot of than rubber, lighter than aluminium. attention as it can be combined with other elements( including gases & Graphene possesses amazing characteristics metal) to produce different materials as following: with various superior properties.

• The constitution of Pakistan has yet to be framed by the Pakistan Constituent Assembly. I do not know what the ultimate shape of this constitution is going to be, but I am sure that it will be of a democratic type, embodying the essential principle of Islam. Today, they are as applicable in actual life as they were 1,300 years ago. Islam and its idealism have taught us democracy. It has taught equality of man, justice and fairplay to everybody. We are the inheritors of these glorious traditions and are fully alive to our responsibilities and obligations as framers of the future constitution of Pakistan. In any case Pakistan is not going to be a theocratic State to be ruled by priests with a divine mission. We have many non-Muslims — Hindus, Christians, and Parsis — but they are all Pakistanis. They will enjoy the same rights and privileges as any other citizens and will play their rightful part in the affairs of Pakistan. (Broadcast to the people of the United States of America on Pakistan, February 1948) • You are free to go to your temples, you are free to go to your mosques or to any other place of worship in this State of Pakistan. You may belong to any religion or caste or creed. That has nothing to do with the business of the State. (Presidential address to the first Constituent Assembly of Pakistan, Karachi, 11 August 1947) • I have one underlying principle in mind: the principle of Muslim democracy. It is my belief that our salvation lies in following the golden rules of conduct set for us by our great lawgiver, the Prophet of Islam. (In 1948, Address to Sibi Darbar) • I cannot understand the logic of those who have been deliberately and mischievously propagating that the Constitution of Pakistan will not be based on Islamic Sharia. Islamic principles today are as much applicable to life as they were 1300 years ago. (Address to Karachi Bar Association in January 25, 1948)
