FOREWORD

Karnataka State Council for Science and Technology (KSCST) was founded in the year 1975 with a view to utilize the scientific and technical expertise of a large number of Scientists, Technologists and Engineers in the State to alleviate prevailing poverty, improve the living standards of people and to reduce differentiation through S & T intervention. Housing, Energy, Environment, Water and Waste Management are some of the sectors that were identified by KSCST for improved and efficient management through S and T intervention. Some of the success stories arising from the activities of the Council include: design of novel biogas plants, solar collectors, solar pond, gasifiers, design of high efficiency cooking stove (ASTRA Ole), setting up of rural energy centres and innovative use of sisal plant. Recent major initiatives of KSCST for societal benefits include Rain Water Harvesting, National Spatial Data Infrastructure and Waste Management. Apart from playing a catalytic role in the implementation of sustainable technologies to society-centric problems/ issues, KSCST has also been promoting research, development and innovation in universities. Innovation and technology are needed to transform our nation from reliance on the exploitation of natural resources to technological innovation as basis for sustainable and all inclusive development. Recognising this need, KSCST initiated Student Projects Programme, popularly known as SPP as early as 1977. The main purpose of this programme is to bring out hidden talent and innovative spirit burning in the minds of engineers graduating from colleges across the State. Under this programme, KSCST has been providing both technical and financial support to projects undertaken by the final year engineering students of VTU and of other engineering colleges. All these projects were selected and funded by KSCST after peer review by the faculty of Indian Institute of Science. After the completion of projects, they were again evaluated by the experts. Thus KSCST has been playing crucial role in building confidence and enhancing capabilities of engineering graduates passing out from colleges in the State. st

This is the 31 SPP Seminar in the series conducted uninterruptedly. We are very pleased that Adichunchanagiri Institute of Technology, Chikmagalur, an institution with a good reputation, is hosting this programme. We hope that this Seminar and Exhibition will inspire students to become more innovative and building “innovative society”. We thank the Department of Science and Technology, Government of India and Government of Karnataka for their continued support in the conduct of this programme.

ABOUT KSCST

Karnataka State Council for Science and Technology (KSCST) was established in 1975 to play a catalytic role in promoting the application of Science and Technology in developmental processes of the state in order to benefit a large segment of people. KSCST is the first State Council to be set up in the country to fulfill the long-felt need of bringing together administrators, field level officers in various government departments, scientists and technologists in research laboratories and research institutions. The council has chosen many areas like Energy, Agriculture, Water, Housing, Health and Education for its activities. The Council has completed several projects in these areas such as Mid-day Meals for School Children, Lowcost Housing, Solar Energy Applications, Zoning Atlas, Mapping for use in district administration, Water resources development, Hand pumps for drinking water wells in villages, etc. The objectives of the State Council are: 

To identify areas for application of Science and Technology to development needs, objectives and goals for Karnataka, and in particular, to the prevailing conditions of backwardness, rural unemployment and poverty;



To advise government on the formulation of policies and measures including technical, administrative and legal devices, which will promote such applications to identified needs, objectives and goals; in particular to health, education and manpower utilisation with special emphasis on the development of human skills in the rural areas and in the slums; and which will promote the scientific management of the natural resources of the State;



To promote effective coordination and to develop and foster communication and other links between centres of scientific and technological research, Government agencies, farms and industries so that promising Research and Development work is initiated, promoted and effectively deployed in agriculture, in government and elsewhere;



To initiate, support and coordinate applied research programmes in universities and other institutions in areas identified to be specially suitable for the application of Science and Technology;



To prepare Science and Technology plans relevant to the development needs of the State;

To consider, and advise the government on such other matters as relevant to the application of Science and Technology to the problems of Karnataka State.

The Council has constantly involved several institutions and governmental agencies to identify research areas of interest in major concerns such as Housing, Energy, Water supply, Ecology and Environment, Industries and Rural employment. The Council has evolved a methodology of conducting workshops with participation by leading scientists and administrators and technocrats to identify problems faced, in the state, in each area and to formulate research projects based on these identified problems. These problems were given to different research labs for study and to evolve solutions and these have also been implemented in the fields wherever found suitable. The Council has undertaken several path breaking programs in the area of Energy. To name a few, it has setup a rotor windmill for pumping water at Ungra, a community biogas 14

service unit supplying water and electricity in Pura, Energy Parks in different parts of the state, Solar water heating systems in several places. It has also set up a 20 KW microhydel station at Elaneer village in Dakshina Kannada district, which uses a modern technology of cross flow turbines developed by Indian Institute of Science. KSCST has assisted the state in district level planning in 27 districts through setting up of Natural Resources Data Management System (NRDMS) centers in these districts. These centers use modern scientific tools like Geographic Information System (GIS) and spatial data support system for use in identifying locations with problems like drinking water supply, location of hospitals, schools, etc. This helps in empowerment of local bodies of governance in optimal use of resources. KSCST has done lots of experimentation in treatment of municipal solid and liquid wastes and their recycling. KSCST has participated in the identification of research programmes in the area of biodiversity. KSCST is involved in identifying the problems and strategies for S&T inputs in various sectors. One of the major activities of KSCST has been to improve the quality of education in our colleges. In view of this, Student Project Programme (SPP) was started during 1978–79 to sponsor engineering student projects and this innovative project has been playing a very important role for last three decades. Many projects deal with technologies for use in applications very relevant to the State. During the 31st series (2007-2008) of this programme which commenced in November 2007, a total of 350 projects from 54 engineering colleges were sponsored by the Council. Since its start in 1978, the Council, under this programme, has supported nearly 6000 projects. The success of these activities are mainly due to excellent co-operation which the council received from different departments of the Government and the scientific community in different research institutions of Karnataka, particularly Indian Institute of Science. The support and cooperation of many senior functionaries of the state government like the Chief Minister, Minister for Science and Technology, Finance Minister, Minister for Rural Development and Panchayat Raj as well as the Chief Secretary, Additional Chief Secretary, Development Commissioner, Finance Secretary, Science and Technology Secretariat are extremely important in the success of these activities. The Council has completed 31 years and is looking forward for even more participation from colleges for improving the performance further.

Introduction The car gene cluster of the ascomycete Gibberella fujikuroi encodes two enzymes responsible for torulene biosynthesis (Car RA and Car B), an opsin like protein (Car O) and a putative carotenoid cleaving enzyme (Car X). The expression of the CarX gene in Escherichia.Coli led to the formation of the opsin chromophore retinal. In addition to retinal, retinol and retinoic acid were also found. The identity of the products was proven by high performance liquid chromatography and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Subsequent in-vitro assays with heterologously expressed and purified CarX confirmed its β-carotene cleaving activity and revealed its capability to produce retinal from substrates like γ-carotene, torulene and -apo8’carotenal.

2. PRELIMINARY INVESTIGATION ON AEROMYCOFLORA OF SOME LIBRARIES IN DAVANGERE COLLEGE

: BAPUJI INSTITUTE OF ENGINEERING & TECHNOLOGY, DAVANGERE GUIDES : DR. RANGASWAMY MR. N.S. MANJUNATH STUDENTS : VINAY D.B RAMAKANTH REDDY B RAGHAVENDRA C.H SANTHOSH M

Introduction Aerobiology is defined as a discipline of investigation of aerial transport of biological materials. Pollen grains and fungal spores and some bacteria are among the most abundant airborne bioparticles. This increased awareness has made the study of microorganisms present in the air important and hence the study of aerobiology has acquired a prominent place in various fields of environmental science. Fungal spores are an important component of the bioaerosol. There are about 80,000 species, most of which are cosmopolitan in origin. The biological features of fungi i.e. their ease of dispersion makes fungi one of the chief agents of contamination of any type of substrate including cellulose materials in the books of library. Many are pathogenic to human beings causing allergic problems including asthma due to differential deposition in the respiratory system and also these fungi along with bacteria are responsible for the deterioration of the materials in the library. Objectives •

Identification of predominant fungal spores present in the library.

st

31 Series : SPP : KSCST : 2007-2008

Study of qualitative and quantitative (wherever possible) variations of the fungal spores.

•

Study of these fungal spores in relation to their allergenisity on library users.

•

Scope for Future work •

Methodology Aeromycoflorall studies were carried out between February to May at two libraries in Davangere namely, Bapuji Institute of Engineering and Technology library and second the Central Library of Davangere. Leitz microscope with camera attachment was used for scanning of fungal spores and photomicrographs were taken using CCD camera attachment. The culture plates were exposed for 2-3 hours at different places in the library. After the exposures, plates were incubated 0 at 25 C for 3-5 days and kept for colony growth. After few days colonies were observed for number and distribution of fungal colonies on agar plates and recorded in the note book for total number of colonies, species present. For species identification specimen microscopic slides were prepared using glycerin gelly as mounting media and lactophenol cotton blue stains.

•

Further studies on the occurrence of actinomycetes in indoor air could bring about better understanding of their possible role in occupational related health hazards. Characterization of fungal allergens responsible for the induction of seasonal allergic rhinitis and asthma and to identify the specific IgE/ IgG binding protein fractions of different fungal allergens will help in immunotherapeutic procedures.

Results and conclusions The results of the 3 months data on aeromycofloral survey showed that the indoor library atmosphere was never free of fungal spores. A total of 10 types of fungal spores were identified up to generic level and rest all spore types which are not identified were grouped under unidentified spore types. Air borne fungal spores recorded were representatives of the three major groups i.e. Ascomycotina, Zygomycotina and Deuteromycotina. On the basis of this study the following conclusions were made. 1.

The indoor environment of Bapuji Institute of Engineering and Technology library and Central library of Davangere are rich in fungal spores.

2.

The morphological characters of predominant fungal spores have been studied and incorporated.

3.

Among fungal spores the group Deuteromycotina formed a dominant part of the air spora. The dominant airborne fungal spore types were Aspergillus, Penicillium which accounted for 40-60% of the total fungal catch followed by Mucor and Syncephalastrum species.

4.

Respiratory/allergic disorders have been correlated with the incidence of potential allergy causing fungal organisms in the library environment as explained by other workers. st

COLLEGE : G M INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY, DAVANAGERE GUIDE : DR. B T PATIL STUDENTS : ARAVIND E S BINDHU H B DEEPA D T THARANATH G

Introduction Spent wash is a byproduct from distilleries after extraction of alcohol from molasses and is a rich source of organic matter, N2, P, K, Ca and S. Also, it contains micronutrients like Fe, Zn, Cu, Mn, B etc. Anaerobic digestion of spent wash results in energy generation and also pollution reduction. The existing methods lose lot of energy in the form of methane and the present work is an attempt to provide suitable microbes and a process for biomethanation even with high TDS spent wash. Objectives Design of a suitable reactor for methane production from high TDS spent wash Materials and Methods A reactor of 25.41cm diameter and 40cm height made of 0.3cm thick plate was fabricated. The volume of the reactor is 20 lit and it was placed in a jacket of length 25cm and 26.4cm dia. It contained an agitator of 12cm diameter and 32cm length with an internal grid spacing of 4cm. Suitable motor was used as the drive. Distillery spent wash with a pH of 4.0-5.0 and having a BOD of 80,000-90,000 mg/lit and COD of 120,000-180,000 mg/lit was collected. To initiate the methane production, cow dung and sheep manure were used. The experiment set-up also contains an inverted jar setup to collect the produced methane gas and an incubator to maintain constant temperature. The process was carried-out using slow stirring and at three different o o o temperatures viz. at 25 C; 30 C and 37 C and the results were tabulated. Conclusions Spent wash treatment by way of biomethanation is found to be more beneficial from energy consideration and also pollution reduction. The spent wash treated by this method can also be sprayed on mud to get press mud, which can be a fertilizer.

Introduction Wines have been used for health reasons since ancient times. Of late, there has been a spate of reports emanating from the medical community citing wine's effects upon health based on the presence of those components other than alcohol. Free radicals and oxidative stress are known to cause a wide range of ill effects and diseases and their prevention is known to ameliorate the effect. Free radicals are highly reactive species produced in the body during normal metabolic functions or introduced from the environment (xenobiotics compounds, diesel exhaust, tobacco smoke, radiation etc). Free radicals and oxidants can trigger lipid peroxidation, as well as the oxidation of proteins and DNA. All these events cause extensive damage to body cells and play an important role in many pathological states. In fact, it is believed to play a role in more than sixty different health conditions, including cancer, atherosclerosis, neurodegeneration, inflammation and aging process. The antioxidants in wine and grape juice favorably modulate the blood clotting that climaxes heart attacks and strokes; they help further by relaxing blood vessels and inhibiting the oxidation of LDL (the "bad") cholesterol to its dangerous form. Second in importance to their cardiovascular benefits are wine's antioxidant actions against cancer. Objective Present work focuses on the beneficiary aspects of Indian wine as an antioxidant. The project involves studies on chemical and antioxidant properties of Indian Wine. Methodology Indian wine possesses potent free radical scavenging and antioxidant activities. The following parameters were studies in detail. 1.

DPPH scavenging activity : The principle for the reduction of 1, 1- diphenyl-2-picryl hydrazyl (DPPH) free radical is that, the antioxidant reacts with stable free radical, DPPH and converts it to 1, 1-diphenyl–2-picryl hydrazine.

2.

Ferrous sulphate induced lipidperoxidation inhibition activity : MDA reacts with TBA to give a colored compound which has an absorbance maxima at 532 nm, which serves as a convenient index for determining the extent of peroxidation reactions.

3.

Copper sulphate / Ferric chloride / Hydrogen peroxide induced lipidperoxidation inhibition activity : Similar to that of ferrous sulphate induced lipid peroxidation, except that here copper sulphate or hydrogen peroxide is used to induce lipidperoxidation.



The wine extract was also effective in inhibiting the ferrous sulphate, ferric chloride and hydrogen peroxide induced lipid peroxidation and the IC 50 was observed to be 260 g/ml, 225 g/ml and 300 g/ml respectively.

6. SUSTAINED DRUG RELEASE USING ION EXCHANGE RESINS COATED WITH POLYMERS COLLEGE

: M.S. RAMAIAH INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY, BANGALORE GUIDE : DR. CHANDRA PRABHA M N STUDENTS : ALFIYA ANSAR AMRITHA KIDIYOOR KIRAN PILLI

Introduction Ciprofloxacin hydrochloride, a broad-spectrum fluoroquinolone, is effective against both gram1 negative and gram-positive bacteria. Ciprofloxacin HCL destroys microorganisms by inhibiting DNA gyrase, a type II bacterial topoiosomerase necessary to separate replicated DNA during DNA Synthesis. Inhibiting DNA gyrase prevents the enzyme from resealing the double stranded DNA after the nick is created during replication. Ciprofloxacin HCl will also kill bacteria in both the active and inactive growth phases.

will lead to toxic response hence causing side effects. To maintain the desired drug concentration level multiple doses can be administered i.e. safe dose at periodic intervals but this is inconvenient and patient compliance is often poor. To overcome these problems, sustained release can be used. Sustained release gives a prolonged therapeutic effect by continuously releasing medication over an extended period of time after administration of single dose hence reducing the frequency of administration. This is achieved with the use of Ion exchange resins: Ion exchange is reversible exchange of ions (of like charge) between a solid phase and a liquid phase, solid phase being the resin. The drug when complexed with the resin it’s known as the ‘drug resin complex’ of the ‘Resinate”. The interaction between the drug and the resin is partially chemical and a result of physical adsorption. It’s a double decomposition process. The ion from the IER is replaced by the ion on the drug and thus a complex is formed .The ion of the IER which is exchanged by the drug is known as the ‘Counter ion’. At the site of drug delivery this process is reverted as a result the ion is released into the environment. Objectives To formulate and evaluate the sustained release drug delivery system for ciprofloxacin HCl using Ion exchange resin. •

In this work, an experimental work was carried out to study the feasibility of using non edible mahua oil as a substitute for diesel in the diesel engine. But the biodiesel operation resulted in lower brake thermal efficiency. This may be due to the slightly higher viscosity of the biodiesel which results in poor atomization. This problem may be tackled by increasing the injector opening pressure or adding commercially available fuel additive. Figure 1. Transesterification setup st

following

The raw mahua oil was converted into biodiesel. The fuel properties of biodiesel was better than raw oil. The performance of the diesel engine with mahua oil biodiesel was lower than the neat diesel operation. This may be due to the slightly higher viscosity of the biodiesel. The performance of the biodiesel operated diesel engine was augmented by increasing the fuel injector opening pressure to 220 bar. This higher injector opening pressure improves the atomization and spray formation of the biodiesel. This results in better combustion of the fuel and higher brake thermal efficiency. A 4% - 6 % increase in brake thermal efficiency was observed at 220 bar as compared to 180 bar recommended for diesel operation.

The compression ratio of the engine can be varied to increase the efficiency of the biodiesel operated diesel engine. Commercially available additives can be tried to improve the performance of the biodiesel operated diesel engine. Fumigation of gaseous fuel can be used to improve the performance of the biodiesel operated diesel engine.

chromoplating industries are the main cause of pollution of fresh water bodies. Very often these industries are small scale cottage industries without employing proper effluent treatment measures; release the untreated effluents in the nearby areas. This results in pollution of soil and water. For the purpose of bioremediation of polluted fresh water bodies, hyrophytes are used, which help in absorption of pollutants and retaining them in the body parts of the plant. This type of bioremediation is called phytoremediation. Objectives To determine the efficacy of removal or bioremediation of heavy metal pollutants by waterweed Salvinia molesta from fresh water.

Introduction

Scope For Further Work

Aim of the project is to recover the silver from photographic film waste by adsorptive bubble separation method. It intend to study the effect of concentration of surfactant, contact time and temperature on recovery. After the process the quality of the waste water is detected by a water quality detection kit. There are many methods which have been established commercially to recover silver that exists in photographic waste such as precipitation, electrolysis and ion exchange. Adsorptive bubble separation method is one of the methods wherein one of the components gets selectively adsorbed on the bubble owing to the charge difference.The silver ion gets selectively adsorbed on the tail of the surfactant and thereby can be separated from the solution.

Further investigations can be done by increasing the concentration of surfactant. The experiment can be conducted with different types of cationic surfactants. The experiment can be conducted below room temperatures for recovery of silver.

Introduction Black Cotton (BC) Soil is a challenge to the field of civil engineering, due to the innumerable problems it poses during and even after construction. Many areas of Karnataka state contain BC soils and for st


the construction of roads, buildings etc., it is necessary to adopt suitable soil stabilization techniques. To select a proper soil stabilization method, it is necessary to study the characteristics of the soil. Objective To study the characteristics of Black Cotton soil of Budni village and to study the alternative techniques of soil stabilization using lime, fly ash and combination of both. Methodology The various methods of soil stabilization include i) Stabilization using cement or cementous materials like lime; ii) stabilization by drainage; iii) Electric Stabilization; iv) thermal stabilization; v) Stabilization by heating; vi) Stabilization by cooling; vii) bituminous Stabilization; viii) chemical Stabilization and ix) mechanical Stabilization. The choice of the method depends of the economic factors, soil conditions, purpose/ type of construction etc. In the present study, an attempt was made to find optimum lime content and optimum moisture content (OMC) corresponding to maximum dry density for different lime contents. For that, the soil samples (with admixtures viz. lime and fly ash) were tested for the index properties viz. water content; specific gravity; particle size distribution and consistency limits as well as engineering properties viz. shear strength; compressibility; permeability and CBR (California Bearing Ratio). Results and Conclusions The BC soil samples obtained from Budni village, reacted well with lime blends. Many of the engineering properties of the soil are enhanced by lime addition. The OMC increases with increase in lime content. CBR value of soil increased due to lime addition. Expansion ratio and differential swelling index decrease with increase in lime content. From the above it can be concluded that Soil stabilization by adding lime can be considered as an alternative treatment to the soils of Budni village.

Introduction As part of National Highway Development program of the Govt. of India and similar programs of various state governments, massive roadwork, was takenup simultaneously across the country. This had created scarcity of materials mainly, coarse aggregates, forcing the contractors to compromise on material quality. Flaky and non-flaky materials were allowed to be mixed in certain portion, to satisfy the shape test values, but not the strength. Aggregate Impact Value (AIV) and Specific Gravity (SG) are two indirect parameters in determining the strength of aggregates.

Introduction

To determine the variation of AIV of aggregates for different Specific Gravity, flakiness, compaction factor and compressive strengths.

With the growing population and increasing levels of urbanization and industrialization, the water is becoming a source and also getting polluted at a very rapid rate. To overcome these, the wastewaters from the industries shall be treated properly and maximum reuse/ recycling shall be practiced. These wastewaters can be either treated with aerobic process or anaerobic systems. Compared to the aerobic systems, anaerobic systems have become popular due to less energy consumption and ease of maintenance etc. Upflow Anaerobic Sludge Blanket (UASB) reactor is one such anaerobic system that treats effluents having high organic content. Hybrid UASB (HUASB) is an improvisation over the conventional UASB that can be used for a wide variety of effluents.

Objectives

The investigation was carried-out for aggregates of different Sp. Gr., flakiness etc. for a concrete mix of M20 grade. 43 grade cement, fine aggregates, coarse aggregates from 5 different quarries (viz. Almatti, Kolhar, Teggi, Mudhol and Huilgeri) and water were the basic constituents. Coarse aggregates of 100% flakiness (FL), 100% non-flaky non-elongative (NFNE) and 100% non-flaky and elongative (NFE) were used. Concrete with varying proportions of NFNE, NFE and FL aggregates was prepared. The fresh concrete samples were subjected to compaction factor test t o determine the workability. The concrete was casted into 150 x 150 x 150mm moulds and cured for 7 days and 28 days period. After curing, the cubes were tested for compressive strength, AIV was computed and the results were tabulated. Results and Conclusions Aggregates of high specific gravity are found to be of more strength. The AIV was not related to the elongation and flakiness of the aggregate, but to the strength. Huilgeri aggregates are of higher AIV. The compressive strength of combination mix was more than that of the individuals.

Introduction Masonry vaults, as a roofing element has been used in practice since hundreds of years, are as architecturally pleasing, structurally efficient and are also a low energy alternative to the conventional RC roofing system. Masonry vaults are being constructed at many places using soil-cement blocks. There are a variety of vaults that can be classified based on (a) geometry (size and shape), (b) method of construction and (c) type of supporting system. Estimating the load carrying capacity and understanding the failure patterns of masonry vaults is extremely complex and hence one has to resort to experimental techniques. In this project an attempt has been made to estimate the load carrying capacity and study the failure patterns of geometrically scaled vaults. Objectives  To understand the construction process of masonry vaults.  To study the failure/crack patterns and load carrying capacity of masonry vaults.  Theoretical stress analysis (Finite Element Analysis) and comparison with experimental results.

Methodology A. Construction and testing of masonry vault

3.

The crack patterns of the composite vault were similar to that, observed in the un-reinforced vault; however no brittle mode of failure of vault was noticed.

4.

The failure of composite vault was due to failure of the tie beam underneath the gable wall.

5.

The failure of the tie beam and the wall below it indicates the tension developed in the tie beam, which exceeded the design strength, for the test carried out on composite vault.

6.

Based on the linear FE analysis it can be concluded that there is a fairly good comparison of the stress contours which give an indication of the crack patterns.

Testing of Composite Vault

Scope for further studies The experimental investigation can be extended to fullscale models with various parameters such as span, rise, thickness etc. The study can be extended to masonry domes as well.

Introduction

Crack pattern of Composite Vault and Failure of Ring Beam Based on the investigation on the un-reinforced masonry vault and the masonry vault with ferrocement shell the following are the broad set of conclusions: 1.

It is possible to construct a masonry vault using a pair of templates and hence form work is not necessary.

Rat-trap bond in a masonry is a bond in which the stretchers and headers are laid on their sides, with the base of the stretcher facing outwards. This gives a wall with an internal cavity bridged by the headers, hence the name. The main advantage of this bond is economy in use of bricks, giving a wall of one brick thickness with fewer bricks than a solid bond. Rat-trap bond was in common usage in England for building houses of fewer than three stories up to the turn of the 20th century and is today still used in India as an economical bond, as well for the insulation properties offered by the air cavity.

Oxidation characteristics of bitumen has influence the performance of bituminous mixes in the field .Studies conducted in the field have been time consuming and delayed due to slow process of oxidation of binder used in road construction. Hence there is a need to understand the behavior of various Bituminous 41

Binders, against ageing or oxidation. The project is aimed at ageing characteristics of Bituminous Binder mixture at laboratory. By doing so one can understand the performance of bituminous binder against ageing characteristics. Objectives 

To determine the effect of Short term ageing on Bituminous mix.



To conduct studies on long term ageing of Bituminous Binder using ultraviolet oven.



To determine the performance of Bituminous mix with respect to permanent deformation after ageing.

Methodology 1.

Short term aging characteristics of bituminous binder were tested using thin film oven test.

2.

Long term ageing effect were tested by using ultra violet oven to under stand the behavior of binder with respect to oxidation.

Optimum Binder Content was found out to be 4.75% for PMB, 4.6% for WPMB and 4.55% for PMB-40 Bitumen by weight of the aggregate for bituminous mix. All three binders showed an decrease in trend in terms of stability and flow value of bituminous mix. PMB -70 showed a decrease of 13.18% , PMB –40 showed a decrease of 14.12 % ,WPMB showed a increase of 10% over a time period of 72 hrs for stability value. In case of PMB-70, PMB-40 it was observed that bottom and top portion of binder in separation tube show little variation in test results . This is because binders PMB-70, PMB-40 manufactured in refineries at controlled environment and modifiers used are spread uniformly across the binder. WPMB showed irregular variation in sample. It is observed that values of binders after ageing for 72 hrs is well within limits of specification specified by IS and IRC (2 -6 poise @ 150 deg ). Since WPMB in not a refinery product the binder is produced by blending the waste

plastic, the stability and flow values of the mix are not consistent with ageing.

18. STUDIES ON SLEEVED COMPOSITE COLUMNS CONFINED WITH FRP AND GFRP FOR SEISMIC RESISTANCE COLLEGE

: GHOUSIA COLLEGE OF ENGINEERING, RAMANAGARAM GUIDE : DR.N.S.KUMAR STUDENTS : MD. IRSHAD ALAM SHAKIL AHAMAD IRSHAD ALI IFTEKHAR AHAMAD BAIG

Introduction Columns occupy a vital place in the structural system. Weakness or failure of a column destabilizes the entire structure. Strength & ductility of steel columns need to be ensured through adequate strengthening, repair & rehabilitation techniques to maintain adequate structural performance. Recently, composite column are finding a lot of usage for seismic resistance. Fibre Reinforced polymer (FRP) is an innovative material for strengthening. FRP wrapped columns exhibit higher strength and improved ductility. GFRP confinement provided in potential plastic hinge region lead to significant improvement in both strength and displacement ductility. Concrete-filled steel tubular columns have many excellent structural properties, such as high compressive strength, large ductility and large energy absorption capacity. The strength of steel and concrete for building structures is getting higher with the development of new materials. The cross-section with high strength materials becomes smaller, and consequently a column becomes more slender. The design of a column considering buckling and P δ effect becomes more important in such situation. Objectives •

Optimum use of GFRP-wrapped core steel column and its influence on Ductility of the sleeved column systems.



As there is an uncertainty about the order of occurrence of local buckling of steel tube and crushing of concrete core/GFRP-wrapped core – the mechanism of local buckling has to be studied further.



Fatigue behavior needs to be investigated in order to use this kind of columns in buildings subjected to seismic forces.



It is essential to evaluate Static, Dynamic and Fire performance of full-scale moment resistant frames with GFRP-wrapped/ concrete/ soil-cement encased steel sleeved columns.

Concrete soil filled conventional columns (40) -with & without GFRP wrapped

All the columns were subjected to compressive loads in UTM (400 KN) until they buckle maximum & readings were be noted. Failures were observed using deformation dial gauge. In addition, for all sleeved columns, sleeved composite columns filled with cement concrete and soil-cement mix in different configurations were also considered to observe the failure modes & load carrying capacity Conclusions The load carrying capacity of GFRP-wrapped columns are always higher than that of without GFRP-wrapped columns.



The GFRP-wrapped column is able to absorb more energy before it fails as compare to the column without GFRP-wrapped. And hence due to GFRP-wrapping of column, the energy absorption capacity is improved..





The space occupied by GFRP-wrapped columns is not more than that of conventional steel sleeved columns.



Level of axial load has significant role on ductility of columns. Higher axial forces axial forces degrade overall response and increases demands of GFRP jackets and hence a large number of GFRP layers required for the columns subjected to higher axial force.



Application of GFRP confinement contributed to the increase in compressive strength as well as ultimate strain levels in the specimens. The st

19. AN EXPERIMENTAL STUDY ON EFFECT OF RATIO OF DIFFERENT SIZED COARSE AGGREGATES ON COMPRESSIVE STRENGTH OF SELFCOMPACTING CONCRETE COLLEGE

: GLOBAL ACADEMY OF TECHNOLOGY, BANGALORE GUIDE : BHARATHI GANESH STUDENTS : PUNITH JAIN SHIVRAJKUMAR R SNEHA B PYATI TEJUS L B

Introduction Recognizing the lack of uniformity and complete compaction of concrete by vibration, Self Compacting Concrete (SCC) was developed, which doesn’t need complete vibration. SCC is made of normal concrete materials by way of adding chemical and mineral admixtures. Usually, High Range Water Reducing Admixture (HRWRA) and Viscosity Modifying Admixture (VMA)s are added in preparation of SCC. At times, mineral admixtures are used as an extra fine material, besides cement, and in some cases, they replace cement, partially. SCC can be made in the following three ways: •

Powder type SCC made using powder content 43

•

•

VMA type SCC made using VMA admixture Combined type SCC made using content and also VMA admixture

powder

Objective To evaluate the effect of ratio of different sized coarse aggregates on the compressive strength of SCC. Methodology The study involves obtaining the design mix of Powder type SCC, with cementous content (70% cement + 30% pulverized fly ash), for five different ratios of coarse aggregates of 20mm and 6.3mm, by keeping all other parameters constant, without the use of VMA. Required dosage of superplasticizer was added to satisfy the rheological properties of SCC. The ratios of 20mm: 6.3mm coarse aggregates, chosen for the study are I) 40:60; ii) 45:55; iii) 50:50; iv) 55:45 and v) 60:40. In addition, two samples one each of 6.3mm coarse aggregates alone and the other with 20mm coarse aggregates alone, were also tested. Three (03) cubes for each mix for a curing period of 3 days; 7 days; 28 days and 56 days were tested (total 84 cubes of 150mm x 150mm x 150mm size), were subjected to compressive strength test and the results were compared. Results and Conclusions The mix with ratio of 45:55 of 20mm: 6.3mm coarse aggregates resulted in highest compressive strength at 3 days; 7 days; 28 days and even at 56 days of curing period and proved to be the most suitable ratio of the coarse aggregate, for the selected cementous content, water binder ratio etc.

20. STRENGTH CHARACTERISTICS OF HYBRID FIBER REINFORCED CONCRETE USING WASTE RUBBER TYRE AND WASTE COILED FIBERS COLLEGE

: GOGTE INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY, BELGAUM GUIDE : PROF. K RAVI STUDENTS : AJAY R HULJI MANGESH A JADHAV SACHIN S JADHAV SANAM J PAWAR

Introduction Concrete, the major construction material worldwide has poor tensile properties. Fiber reinforced 44

concrete (FRC) has better tensile characteristics compared to normal concrete. Different types of fibers are used in FRCs, but a combination of two or more different types of fibers are used to produce hybrid FRC. The fibers generally include metal fibers (steel fibers, GI fibers, carbon fibers etc.); polymeric fibers (armid, nylon, polyster and polypropylene etc.) and naturally occurring fibers (bamboo thread fibers, coconut hair fibers, jute fibers, horse hair etc.). Different fiber materials have distinguished properties that enhance the behaviour of concrete. Two types of hybrid FRC are possible. In the former, fibers of the same material but of different sizes will be used to attain the desired strength and stiffness. In the latter, fibers of same length but with different modulus of elasticity are used to attain high toughness. To make use of the waste materials like lathe waste and waste tires etc. an effort is made to study the behaviour of hybrid FRC using waste rubber tire and waste coiled fibers. Objectives To study and compare the characteristics of hybrid FRC made of waste rubber tires and waste coiled fibers. Materials and methodology The materials used include 43 grade Portland cement; fine aggregate of specific gravity 2.56, uniformity coeff of 2.51 and fineness modulus of 3.13; 12mm coarse aggregate of specific gravity 2.75, uniformity coeff of 1.2 and fineness modulus of 6.93; superplasticizer to improve the workability of concrete; water and fibers of waste coil turnings from lathe machines and fibers from waste rubber tires. The aspect ratio of fibers was maintained as 40. M-20 grade concrete mix was used for the present study. Cement, sand and coarse aggregates were mixed in dry state. Then required quantity of mono fibers and hybrid fibers was added. Superplasticizer was added to improve the workability. Then water was added and mixed thoroughly. The concrete was poured into moulds, thoroughly compacted and the top surface was finished with a trovel. Moulds were removed after 24 hours and the samples were kept for 28 days for curing. After curing, the specimens were tested for compression test, flexural tests, impact test and tensile strength. The test results were tabulated. Results and Conclusions The hybrid FRC made of waste coil fibers and waste rubber fibers has better strength than mono fiber FRC. Remarkable improvements can be obtained in tensile strength, flexural strength and impact strength with hybrid FRC made of above materials. Also, these are

st


very economical due to the low price of the fiber materials.

Introduction The technology of fiber reinforced concrete can be traced back to antiquity when straw was used to make bricks. In the past 20 years, there has been a renewed interest in the science and application of fiber reinforced cements. The organic and inorganic fibres can be advantageously used in concrete. In recent years, intensive research has resulted in advances and innovation in the technology of fibers such as polypropylene, galvanized iron, steel, etc., and more basic knowledge has been gained on the behaviour of cement concrete containing these fibers. There have been fast impovements and discoveries in concrete technology. The various new products of it are fibre reinforced concrete, hybrid fibre reinforced concrete, fibrous-Ferro cement systems, polymer concrete, vacuum concrete, gap graded concrete etc., are few to mention among them.

Steel fibres used in experimentation were of 60 mm length and 1 mm thickness with corrugated shape, thus giving as aspect ratio of 60. Steel fibres were added by volume fraction. Density of 3 steel fibres was found to be 78500 N/m . Polypropylene fibres used in the experimentation were having a length of 16mm and density of 9100 3 N/m . Averge thickness of polypropylene fibres was found to be 7.5 micron, leading to aspect ratio of 2133. Young’s modulus of polypropylene fibres 3 was found to be 5 x 10 MPa GI fibres were obtained by cutting GI wires having 3 a density of 70000 N/m . GI wires were having a diameter of 1 mm. The length of GI fibre cut was 40 mm, which leads to an aspect ratio of 40. Waste coiled steel fibres were obtained from a local lathe machine shop having an average thickness of 0.5 mm and length of 40 mm, which leads to an aspect ratio of 80. The cement sand and aggregates were weighed according to mix proportion 1 : 1.52 : 2.85 which corresponds to M20 grade of concrete. The size of beam cast were 100 mm x 100 mm x 500 mm and the size of the column was 100 mm x 100 mm x 500 mm. After 28 days of curing the beam specimens and columns were taken out of curing tank and they were surface dried. The surface of beams and columns were lightly hatched with chisel and hammer. Before hatching, the beams were subjected to a two point loading. 10% of the failure load for the beam was applied and cracks were initiated. Similarly columns were also applied with 10% of failure load to initiate the cracks. Concrete mix with mono fibre or hybrid fibres was prepared as per the requirement. For monofibre concrete mix, the percentage of fibres used was 1% (by volume fraction). For hybrid fibre concrete mix the percentage of fibres used was (0.5% + 0.5% by volume fraction). Now the hatched beams and hatched columns were kept in a wooden mould of size 120 mm x 120 mm x 520 mm. The moni-fibre concrete mix or hybrid fibre concrete mix was poured into the remaining annular space of the framework, thus giving a coat of mono-fibre concrete or hybrid fibre reinforced concrete. After 28 days of curing the beam specimens were tested on UTM of capacity 1000 kN. They were tested with two point loading as per IS516 : 1959. The failure load was obtained and the flexural 45

strength was calculated for all the repaired beams using mono-fibre reinforced concrete and hybrid fibre reinforced concrete. The columns were also tested on UTM of capacity 1000 kN. The failure load was noted down and compressive strength was calculated for the repaired columns. Results and discussions 1.

It is observed that the flexural strength of repaired beams by different fibre reinforced concrete using different moni-fibres such as steel fibres, waste coiled steel fibres, wste plastic fibres, polypropylene fibres, are higher that of the beam repaired by plain concrete.

Introduction With the fast depletion of precious natural resources, there is an urgent need to search for alternative building materials. Natural sand is being consumed by the building industries at such a rate that days are not far off before natural sand may have to be declared an endangered resource. In this work, an attempt is made to investigate the utility of Iron Ore Tailings for partial replacement of sand. The iron ore tailing which is collected as a waste in KUDUREMUKHA is brought to the laboratory for investigation. Objectives

The basic tests like sieve analysis, specific gravity, bulk density, bulking were conducted.

4.

The flexural strength of repaired beams can be enhanced using hybrid-fibre reinforced concrete.

Introduction Conclusions It is observed that the compressive strength of cement mortar increases with the addition of iron ore tailing up to 50% replacement of sand, beyond which there is a reduction of compressive strength. The reason for the improvement in the compressive strength may be attributed to the fact that the iron ore tailing being finer than the sand particles occupy the voids between the sand particles and hence contribute to a better interfacial bond. Iron ore tailing can be recommended for utilization as an alternative fine aggregate for both mortar and concrete. Though the finer size of iron ore tailing may pose problems in handling and also induce additional shrinkage of concrete, extra care has to be taken for proper curing of concrete. The replacement of natural sand by iron ore tailing will certainly go a long way in saving precious natural resources.

Columns are the vertical members of any framed structure, which are designated to carry compressive loads. These columns can be of different materials like masonry, RCC, timber, steel, composite columns, clay block composite columns etc. Composite columns are maedup of more than one material, which are designed to carry complex loading conditions. In these, one material counters the drawbacks of another material. Various types of composite columns are being designed and the present study involves terracotta blocks filled with cement concrete and reinforced with steel in their hollow spaces. Objectives To study the behaviour of terracotta composite column Materials & Methodology Terracotta hollow blocks of size 145mm x 175mm x 350mm with hole size of 50 x 30mm; 53 grade cement; 12.5mm downsize coarse aggregates; sand; TMT bars of 10, 12 & 16mm dia and water. 1: 1½:3 concrete mix was used with varying amounts of reinforcement. Specimens of rectangular cross section of 145mm x 175mm and a height of 1.16mm were casted. The samples were divided into 5 groups based on their reinforcement. Total of 26 specimens were casted and tested for 28 days strength. The terracotta blocks were soaked in water for 24 hours. After that they were bonded with 1:3 cement mortar, and left undisturbed for 24 hours. The bonded specimens were filled and compacted with 1: 1½:3 concrete and 4 steel bars of Fe415 at 4 corners with an effective cover of 40mm at the top and at the bottom. To improve the bearing strength of the specimen, they were covered with 40mm thick 1:1:2 concrete mix at the top and bottom. Allowed to cure for 28 days and tested. Results & Conclusions The load carrying capacity of the terracotta composite column specimens is 50% less than the theoretical 47

computation. The testing of RCC column of the same size had equal axial load to that of the composite column. Reinforced terracotta composite columns are economical, speedy in construction and acceptable in engineering works.

Introduction Subgrade and sub-base are major components of the pavement. The subgrade soil and its properties are important in pavement design. The main function of subgrade is to give adequate support to pavement and for this subgrade should possess sufficient stability. Soil stabilization is the process of treating the soil in such a manner as to alter or improve the performance of the soil as a construction material. Soil improvement by mechanical or chemical means is widely adopted. Recent enzymes have emerged as a new technique for soil st abilization.

Conclusions 1.

The consistency Limits tests conducted for treated and untreated black cotton soil indicates improvement in Plasticity Index.

2.

The light and heavy compaction tests show the improvement in MDD value with decrease in OMC. From untreated to treated soil with 4% enzyme 3 the increase in the MDD value is from 1.74 g/cm 3 to 1.85 g/cm .

3. Based on MDD value obtained from heavy compaction test, the UCC test conducted and the results indicates that there is 80% increase in the unconfined compressive strength. 4.

Scope For Future Work 1.

The result shows that there is improvement in the properties of black cotton soil when treated with 1, 2, 3 and 4%. The experiment is to be extended to find the optimum dosage of enzyme.

2.

Blending of BC soil with coarse material like coarse sand and treating with enzyme may improve the CBR and the UCC value.

3.

The improvement in the geotechnical properties of enzyme treated soil is to be tested by increasing its curing period.

Objectives The objects of this study were: •

•

To study the variation of constitancy limit of soil treated with enzyme. To study the variation of unconfined compression strength

•

To study the variation of CBR value.

•

To get the optimum dosage of enzyme.

Methodology To assess the suitability of Bio-Enzyme as soil stabilizer, laboratory tests were done to determine the engineering properties and strength characteristics of black cotton soil with and without stabilization with bio-enzyme. The black cotton soils samples were tested for engineering properties and for strength parameters such as CBR and unconfined compressive strength

Introduction The present situation in India is such that the condition of road gets deteriorated at a much faster rate and therefore a wide approach was made by various researches to come out with the solution. The major cause was found to be the settlement of soil due to loose sub grade beneath. Therefore the determination of California Bearing Ratio value has got much importance in determining the stability of the soil. 50

Aim of the Project This project basically focuses on the practical applications of a mathematical model in the field for a quick determination pf California bearing ratio (CBR). It includes a general numerical modeling after studying various soil types for 12 districts of Karnataka based on the percentage of quantities like Gravel, Sand, Silt/Clay, and their other physical properties like Liquid Limit (LL), Plastic Limit (PL), Plasticity Index (PI) and Proctor Density for any kind of soil. The following tests were conducted to determine the CBR values 

Grain size analysis and particle size distribution

Atterberg limit

Methodology The procedure during the course of this project comprises of collection of the database related to various soil physical properties determined by standard methods from Pradan Mantri Sadak Yojana for 12 districts of Karnataka, and designing a mathematical model to fit in to the characteristics of soil depending upon these values hence create a general mathematical equation which can receive various parameters (viz. LL, PL, PI, Density, percentage of soil particles) and thus give the value of CBR for that particular soil type of that district CBR is the main and major experiment, for the design of pavements like flexible or rigid. The conventional method of determination of CBR may take four to five days. It proves time consuming and uneconomical at present competitive field. The data is collected by PRADAN MANTRI GRAM SADAK YOJAN for 12 districts of Karnataka. Tabulated all the data’s in specified format such that it can easily understood to any one. A linear regression analysis is carried out on the data base collected from the tests to find the empirical relationship of such physical properties with the CBR value. By this, knowing the numerical physical properties of soils, the CBR value can be directly determined without the standard proctor needle test or any other method and only by mere substitution. Using SPSS Software analysed all the data’s of individual district to get the final equation. Tabulated the data in specified manner and keeping CBR as dependent variable and other properties as independent variables The variation of CBR (4 days soaked) with different soil properties has been represented graphically and the co-efficient are determined to show their relationship. The model developed for 12 districts of st


Karnataka can be used for same areas directly for the soil studies. The data’s have been obtained from PMGSY database and can be used for any other road construction work future. Conclusion For the purpose of determination of the CBR values based on various soil physical properties the data’s regarding the particle size classification and volume variations with water content in different types of soils have been collected. A linear regression analysis is carried out on this database to find the empirical relationship of such physical properties with the CBR value which is represented by a linear model for specific districts. By this, knowing the numerical physical properties of the soil of the same area the CBR value can be directly determined without the standard proctor needle test or any other field method only by mere substitution. Scope for Future Work Established the graphical and mathematical models for individual soil parameters such as CBR v/s Gravel , CBR v/s Sand , CBR v/s Silt/Clay, CBR v/s Liquid Limit, CBR v/s Plastic Limit, CBR v/s Plasticity Index, CBR v/s Optimum moisture content, CBR v/s Dry Density. Establish graphical model for all the soil parameters. This extended model can be utilized to increase the CBR value for the design of pavements. Since the group has conducted the project for only 12 districts of Karnataka State, the project can be extended to other districts of the state and try to generalize the models for particular state and try to extend it country wide.

Introduction Greedy Perimeter Stateless Routing (GPSR), a novel routing protocol for wireless datagram st


networks that uses the positions of routers and a packet’s destination to make packet forwarding decisions. GPSR makes greedy forwarding decisions using only information about a router’s immediate neighbors in the network topology. When a packet reaches a region where greedy forwarding is impossible, the algorithm recovers by routing around the perimeter of the region. Aim of the Project A mobile ad hoc network consists of wireless hosts that may move often. Movement of hosts results in a change in routes, requiring some mechanism for determining new routes. This survey suggests an approach to utilize GPSR to improve performance of routing protocols for ad hoc networks. Methodology Localization is a fundamental problem in wireless sensor networks. In this project, it consider how to trace individual nodes in a wireless sensor network. Networks (WSN) comprise of numerous tiny sensors that are deployed in spatially distributed terrain. These sensor nodes can form a network and data collected from one sensor node can be transferred to another node. Due to the low-cost of these nodes, the deployment can be in order of magnitude of thousands to million nodes. The nodes can be deployed either in random fashion or a pre-engineered way. This transfer of data from one node to another continues until the data reaches the final destination. The sensor nodes perform desired measurements, process the measured data and transmit it to a base station, commonly referred to as the sink node, over a wireless channel. The base station collects data from all the nodes, and analyzes this data to draw conclusions about the activity in the area of interest. Sinks can act as gateways to other networks, as a powerful data processor or as access points for human interface. They are often used to disseminate control information or to extract data from the network. Nodes in sensor networks have restricted storage, computational and energy resources; these restrictions place a limit on the types of deployable routing mechanisms. In this project, we present a routing protocol to prolong the life time of the network. Scope of the project A wireless sensor network consists of a number of sensors spreading across a geographical area to perform distributed sensing tasks using wireless medium. A wireless sensor network consists of lightweight, low power, small size of sensor nodes. In order to facilitate data transfer from a source node to a destination (sink) node, a routing protocol is needed to determine the possible routes. With a limited power 51

supply, sensor nodes are deployed densely and prone to failures. As a result, many traditional adhoc routing protocols may not be suitable for largescale, dense sensor networks. Recently, studies in routing protocols in sensor networks have become a very active and vital area of research. Sensor routing algorithms must be energy efficient, robust to failures, and secure against the compromised and malicious nodes to ensure correct data delivery. In general, the routing protocols can be classified into two categories based on the network structure: flat and geographical based routing. This project describes the GPRS routing protocol for sensor networks and we examine its characteristic and functionality. The advantages and drawbacks for such routing protocol are provided as well. The areas of applications of sensor networks vary from military, civil, healthcare, and environmental to commercial. Examples of application include forest fire detection, inventory control, energy management, surveillance and reconnaissance, and so on. GPSR will allow the building of networks that cannot scale using prior routing algorithms for wired and wireless networks. Such classes of networks include:   



Rooftop networks: fixed, dense deployment of vast numbers of nodes. Ad-hoc networks: mobile, varying density, no fixed infrastructure. Sensor networks: mobile, potentially great density, vast numbers of nodes, impoverished per-node resources.

Introduction The notion of sharing a document in real-time over the internet is quite alluring. Considering a single process running on a host that allows the user to create a diagram, consisting mainly of geometrical shapes and strategically placed text. Several systems should be able to connect to this host and receive the data over the internet. There should be no limitation to the number of systems that can connect to the host. The receiver systems should further be able to transmit this data to other systems that connect to them. Methodology The software provides document sharing and instant messaging facilities using two separate sockets over the network, independent of the platform used. Also, any number of systems can connect to a host that is creating the document. The document can be saved on the user machine for future references. The application is developed using a socket based multi-server multi-client model. Methodology for development is exploratory. Software model used is evolutionary model. This software is designed in C# language on .Net platform. To investigate the problem, various scenarios were considered. One of the scenarios was the classroom scenario. In this scenario, the users of the system are professors and students. Many students can connect to a Professor and receive notes. Students can send their queries to the Professor using the Instant Messaging facility. In order to support the hypothesis, two separate sockets are created; one for document sharing and other for Instant Messaging. Results and Conclusions A user can create a document using the clipboard provided by the software. The data is parsed into a series of strings and saved in a file. Whenever the user wants to send this data over the network to other users, he starts the server to which the other users have to connect. Then the data sharing takes place downstream. The users save this data on their local machines. They also receive updates to this document if any. The users communicate with each other if necessary using the Instant Messaging Facility. The VCNET software provides facilities for users to share the documents over the network in an efficient manner. This software does not add too much to the network traffic as the data is serialized and streamed over the network.

ELECTRICAL AND ELECTRONICS ENGINEERING

Introduction This project demonstrates how to control the electronic devices like computer through the cellular phone. The user will not only be allowed to control the computer but also applications running on it. This can be achieved by using J2ME on the cellular phone which will send the instructions to the servlets at the server and then the servlets will pass on the instructions to the particular computer using Remote Method Invocation and once the instructions are executed, the remote machine will acknowledge the server about the successful completion of instructions and in turn the server will send a message to the cellular phone saying the given task has been completed successfully. The cellular phone will be connected to the server in the network, thus taking the control over all the computers in the network and handing it over to the user to his convenience. Objective This project aims at providing remote access and control of applications in a server. This product is helpful to those people, who intend to carry on their work even when outside the office. This project demonstrates how to control the electronic devices like computer through the cellular phone using J2ME. The user will not only be allowed to control the computer but also applications running on it. This application can be further extended to control any kind of electronic devices apart from the computer. The main technology that is used in this project for establishment of connectivity is the wireless network adapter. This is mainly needed to establish the connectivity. Conclusion This project will help the system administrators to control the application on the server remotely as if he is physically in front of it. This it provides an easy way for the users to interact with his server situated at a larger distance which in turn provides the feature of remotivity. This can be extended 54

Introduction The aim of the project is to design a rear entertainment DVD system to be used in cars. This project describes how the next generation rear seat entertainment systems work and implements the basic part of it. The main difference is the presence of a soft-core processor embedded inside the FPGA unlike the present generation where in the processor is outside the FPGA. 57

The project has four main entities namely the Altera DE2 board containing the Cyclone II FPGA, ADC 2 TVP5150, I C protocol and DAC along with the software tool Quartus II to develop the NIOS II softcore processor on the FPGA and to make it communicate with the ADC and DAC.

department. The history reveals two important works in this field viz., 

The Project is “Wireless Signaling”, means the GoOn [green light] and STOP [red light] signals are send through wireless technique to the arriving train. Due to smog, or cloudy weather or bad light or negligence of train operator, if the train did not stop at the signaling point, then it will be stopped automatically by deactivating the train engine.



The “IR ID System For Railways”, which provides unique ID to each train. When both trains run on same track, the sensors fitted on the top of the both train engines senses that another train is coming on the same track. Then both trains exchange the information and immediately stop the engine to avoid the collision.

Methodology In today’s vehicles, electronics plays a major role. As many as 40-50 electronics ICs are used in cars for the application like Engine control, Instrumentation cluster, Driver, Safety, Entertainment, etc. Entertainment is playing vital role and rear seat entertainment is a booming market. Every car having the rear seat LCD display. Hence this project is designed, FPGA based low cost rear seat entrtainment DVD systems. Low cost and flexible RSE can be embedded into any car. Altera FPGA with NIOS II softcore processor is used in this design. The processor is used to control the peripherals and for image processing purposes. The same design / concept is used for the rear zone visual system, Lane detection, precision parking etc. with very little peripheral devices. Conclusion

Objectives GPS uses three satellites to find the location of locomotives. The GPS module measures the distances of it with respect to satellites and calculate its exact position in terms of angular position. This calculated position and feedback of the sensors are send to ground station periodically using GSM modem in the form of SMS.

The RSES was designed and a picture frame with resolution of 525 x 525 was obtained. It was found that the contrast, brightness and hue controlling capabilities were limited due to the low resolution ADC used in the application. Implementation of compression algorithms would have improved the quality of the picture as well as made a better use of the NIOS II processor which is now being used only as a basic processor for configuring and controlling the peripherals. A higher resolution preferably a 24 bit ADC which has a single dedicated processor for each of the three color codes (RGB) would have drastically improved the quality of the picture.

Methodology

Introduction Generating the bill for the power consumed by each customer is a very difficult task which requires lot of man power where in the service provider should send his men to each and every customer to issue the bill. Also the traditional electro mechanical meters, still widely used and are prone to drift over temperature and time as a result of mechanical nature of the components in the meter. The problem worsens further in collecting the meter readings and generating the bill. A method of automatic bill generation at the customer’s place at the end of every month is suggested in this project. Along with this additional facility like knowing the power consumed till any instant as desired by the customer that allows him to keep a check on the power consumption is also included. Using a telecommunication system, intimation about the nonpayment of the bill by the customer and disconnection of the power on overdue can be made by the master station. Aim of the project This project deals with an implementation of an intelligent embedded system which measures the st


WADEY meter is the system which automatically generates the bill at the customer’s place and also provides a wireless means of communication between the main station and the customer. Accurate information of energy usage and also automate the process of measurement through digital communication techniques details will be available. The system also saves employee trips, and in the case of estimates, billing can be based on actual consumption rather than on an estimate based on previous consumption, giving customers better control of their use of electric energy. In this project a high accuracy electrical energy measurement IC ADE7757 is used and it is a Analog Devices for measuring the power consumed. The ADE7757 supplies the power consumed in the form of pulses. These output pulses may be used to directly drive an electromechanical counter or interface with an MCU which can be used to count the number of pulses. Using the pulse count value the amount of power consumed is calculated and the bill will be displayed. Also a GSM modem is used as the wireless communication system between the main station and the customer. This is used for data transmission such as changes in tariff per unit of power consumed, 59

intimation about the nonpayment of the bill and instructions for disconnection of power on overdue from main station. Conclusions Major developments and projects in the field of remote metering are in progress, involving various research and development programs such as PLCs, application of the system on large databases, utilization of the necessary communication links, and others. The use of GSM in the project that system provides numerous advantages over the methods that have been previously used. The use of metering IC ensures an accurate and reliable measurement of the power consumed. The cost effective transmission makes readings more frequently available to the main station. The implications of this are that the energy demand patterns can be thoroughly studied.

which is obtained by counting the matching frequency of individual code vector, contains very effective facial feature information. By utilizing this technique, a novel face recognition algorithm called VQ histogram method has been developed. A codebook is very important since it directly affects the quality of VQ processing. In VQ codebook space information processing, a special codebook was used, which is systematically organized for 2x2 blocks with code vectors having monotonic intensity variation without DC component.

The group tried to explain that how WADEY meter can play a vital role in managing electrical energy. It is found to be the best alternative to the present existing meter reading system. It will be instrumental in avoiding energy wastage caused due to lack of proper management and will be a very good solution for the prevailing energy crisis. Scope for Future Work The meter can further be enhanced whereby bill can be paid at the customer’s end itself using the GPRS channel.

Introduction Optical Character Recognition, usually abbreviated as OCR, is a type of computer software designed to translate images of handwritten or typewritten text (usually captured by a scanner) into machineeditable text, or to translate pictures of characters into a standard encoding scheme representing them (e.g. ASCII or Unicode). OCR began as a field of research in pattern recognition, artificial intelligence and machine vision. Though academic research in the field continues, the focus on OCR has shifted to implementation of proven techniques. Optical character recognition (using optical techniques such as mirrors and lenses) and digital character recognition (using scanners and computer algorithms) were originally considered separate fields. "Intelligent" systems with a high degree of recognition accuracy for most fonts are now common. Some systems are even capable of reproducing formatted output that closely approximates the original scanned page including images, columns and other non-textual components. Recognition of variously deformed character patterns is one of the salient features of optical character recognition. The methods used for recognition of broken characters previously where less efficient, because no effort was done to mend the broken characters and hence produced poor recognition results. Objectives Develop a methodology to increase efficiency in results.

Conclusions 1.

The character mending algorithm is a very effective and flexible method to deal with the broken characters. It can fix various kinds of broken characters, if the number of broken pixels is smaller than the number of non-broken pixels in mending masks. This algorithm has no effect on the pixels that do not need mending.

2.

The combined use of mending masks with different sizes and the repeated use of the same mask can fix some seriously broken characters. Experiments shows that using this algorithm, the recognition rate can be improved substantially.

3.

The recognition rate of statistical method has increased about 11% after using the brokencharacter mending algorithm. The recognition rate before and after using the algorithm are 73.21% and 84.16%, respectively.

The efficiency of mending and recognition can be increased by extracting more features from the characters and hence characters with more variations such as alignment and rotation variations can be recognized. recognition of

Analog steganography presents an alternative storage medium in audio cassettes. The audio cassettes have longer life and not vulnerable like the floppy drives. Beside they protect the data as no one other then the steganographer can extract the data from the cassettes.

Introduction Smart cards are playing an integral role in these new payment strategies. Smartcards provide increased security, enable more distributed processing and provide a variety of communication options .In these implementations, the parking operator issues (and reissues) the smart cards, manages retail outlets (where they exist) manages cardholders queries, reloads the cards (where this is possible), and manages the entire card system automatically.

vehicle number, password and recharge amount. All the information present in smart card can be changed any time by an authorized dealer. The amount present in the card can be recharged anytime by the user. Whenever the user goes to the shopping mall or a hospital which has this kind of a parking system and holds the user data in the database provided by the PC, he/she is allowed to use the smart card and is called a valid user. The user swipes the card into the reader slot provided to it and waits for the PC to check the status of the card and its validation. Once the card is found valid, a message is displayed on the LCD display that the user is a valid user. Next the user is given an option to open the door. Block Diagram

Radio-frequency identification (RFID) is an automatic identification method, relying on storing and remotely retrieving data using devices called RFID tags or transponders. In this project RFID module consists of a receiver and a transmitter .The Rf transmitter is fixed to the vehicle and the Rf receiver is attached to Control unit of the gate .the radio waves is being transmitted continuously from the Rf transmitter fixed in the vehicle but gets detected when there is Rf receiver close by. The RF antenna after receiving the signal from the transmitter antenna sends it to the decoder; the decoder now decodes the signal and verifies the signal frequency with the pre-stored frequency. If it is matched the gate is opened. Thus RFID grants access to the authorized vehicles, and provides security. Objectives To use automatic parking payment strategies with less human involvement. The entry/exit and payment for parking is managed by control unit in this project. The system allows the vehicle owner to do his payment through a smart card and gain entry/exit. This type of parking system can be implemented in Hospitals, Apartments, Shopping malls, and Vehicle Servicing Stations. Further, this project is enhanced to allow owners vehicles automatically using RFID. Methodology The project aims at developing a parking system where the user given a smart card which holds the st


At the exit gate also same procedure is followed and an additional computation is also done. A suitable amount is calculated for using the parking space in the mall or hospital and the amount is deducted from the card accordingly. Also, in this project there is RFID module which consists of a receiver and a transmitter .The Rf transmitter is fixed to the vehicle and the Rf receiver is attached to Control unit of the gate .RFID here grants access automatically to the authorized vehicles as soon as the signal is detected. This can be used for the owner’s vehicle who can gain entry without having to swipe the card. This way the owner need not pay parking charges for his own building Results and Conclusions To use automatic parking payment strategies with less human involvement. The entry/exit and payment for parking is managed by control unit in this project. Further the project can be enhanced to indicate the number of slots available for parking, and also which slot is free for parking. This can be done by using sensors at each and every slot. 63

Introduction In general, passenger’s records in transportation are currently paper based. They are often compiled in an ad-hoc manner, with recorded details varying between conductors. This project details a solution that attempts to efficient transportation records by merging RFID and database technologies. The solution standardizes the recorded data and provides a database that can be accessed by authorized personnel.

Passengers need to carry the card in their pockets or luggage during the trip, and the whole access control process is executed unnoticeably. The main advantage of active transponders is the ability to communicate over a long distance at high data rates, as compared to passive transponders. The main difference between the active and the passive transponder is the power activation, that is, with or without a battery. Obviously, the drawback stands in the active part of the tag, which implies the use of a dry-cell-type battery. This drawback can be bypassed if the circuit is designed in such a way that the battery life duration exceeds the tag’s lifetime, ensuring a reliable communication link. Results and conclusion Using RFID tags represents the most reliable, efficient and effective method of fare collection. This system can efficiently be used to overcome the problems encountered by the usual fare collection systems which rely on paper tickets, bar codes or any contacting smart cards. Other than fare collection, this system can even be extended over many areas as follows: 

Biomedical application.



Office automation.



Animal tracing.



Infant wrist-bands.

Current systems offer solutions whereby the passenger’s data is held on the RFID tag, which restricts the amount of passenger’s data that can be stored, due to limited memory on the tag. The RFID tag will only store a unique Personal Identification Number (PIN). This identifies the passenger’s records within the web-based database. The main purpose of this project is to free the passenger equipped with electronic card from prior ticket purchase. The reader installed on each vehicle automatically detects the card and registers the entry and exit time. This information is used for fare collecting and billing system.

Due to their infectious characteristics, management of biomedical waste is of utmost concern in public life. As per the guidelines issued by the Ministry of Environment and Forests, Govt. of India, these wastes have to be handled properly, right from collection, segregation, transportation, treatment and disposal. Care should always be taken not to mix the biomedical waste with other solid waste. The present study involves studying the current situation of biomedical waste management in Chikmagalur city.

st


Objectives It is proposed to estimate the quantum of biomedical waste generation, quality analysis of the waste, followed by disposal systems adopted and to assess the situation of the biomedical waste management practices in the study area. Methodology The city of Chikmagalur has a population of 105,000 and the study was undertaken for the hospitals within the city limits. The study period was from January 2008 to March 2008. The city has 11 hospitals, 41 clinics and 3 laboratories. For data collection on waste generation and existing practice, a questionnaire (format) was developed and used in the survey. The waste was classified into three categories viz. hospital waste which includes the total waste generated (incl. canteen, office etc.); medical waste which is a part of hospital waste and is the waste generated from patient diagnosis, treatment etc. and the potentially infectious waste (part of medical waste) which has the potential to infect the humans and animals. The data collected was tabulated and analysed. Conclusions The biomedical waste management (BMW) in Chikmagalur city was not properly managed as per BMW rules. The BMW in private hospitals was better than that in the Government Hospitals. Waste segregation standard is very poor and needs to be improved. Many private clinics are not at all following the BMW rules.

Introduction A wheelchair is a mobility device in which the user sits. The device is propelled either manually (by compelling the wheels by hands) or via various st


automated systems. Wheelchairs are used by people for whom walking is difficult or impossible due to illness (mental or physical), injury or disability. The movement of a person is solved by an application using automation in a conventional wheel chair. This project helps for a person whose hands are also disabled. So if the occupier can move their head they can control the wheel chair’s direction and even can bring it to standstill when not needed, with a sudden response from the motor. Without any others help it can be achieved. Objective To develop a user friendly and economical device which can help the disabled who even cannot use either of their hands to operate wheelchair. Methodology The two batteries of 6V each have been connected in series in order to run two DC motors. One of which is mounted to front wheel for direction controlling. The other motor is placed at the rear side of the wheelchair in order to run the rear wheels for the movement and to ensure safety of the user, the wheelchair is provided with forward movement only. Since the DC motors will be having high speed and low torque and we need vice-versa. To increase the torque a reduction gear is used which is of the ratio 1:20 and coupled perpendicularly to the motor armature shaft. The two batteries of 6V each have been connected in series in order to run two DC motors. The head gadget is provided with three micro switches (mechanical sensors) which are reliable and available for low cost. Among these three switches one is for the forward movement controlling, one for controlling the left directional movement and the other for controlling right directional movement. These sensors are connected to three separate relays (electromagnetic switches), which checks the signals sent by the mechanical sensors to the motor. The relays used are of Double Pole Single Through (DPST). For ease of use to the disabled person, this wheel chair is provided with an alternative controlling device that is, joystick. This is made parallel with the switches of head movement gadgets and is in turn connected to the relays for switching action for the motor. The battery used is of rechargeable and it can run for almost 3 hours with one full charge at a constant speed of 1.1 Km / hour. This constant speed is maintained to impart safety. Wheelchair is not provided with reverse movement to avoid any accidents due to backside non visibility. 65

Introduction

Results and Conclusion The designed wheelchair can carry a load upto 90 0 Kg, both in plane surface and even at 30 inclinations at a speed of 1.1Km/hr. To ensure safety the wheelchair is not provided with a reverse movement and at a constant speed. It can be turned only through forward movement. The motorized wheelchairs available in the market ranges between Rs. 12,000 to 1 lakhs but, the one which is fabricated with a new designing concept and costs around Rs. 8,000 only. As the technology is innovative and it can even be used by the patients who have undergone paralytic stroke and have lost the power of hands too. Scope For Future Work The motorized wheelchair has shown good results in regard to its constructional simplicity and operational ease. The machine has also shown some difficulty in moving in very steep gradient. The machine nevertheless, can be improved further. Two speed gear arrangement in between the pulley of the motor and the shaft, the low speed gear can be engaged during the movement of the wheelchair over a gradient. This would lead to easy movement of the wheelchair over an inclined surface. The reverse movement of the wheelchair can be provide with a sensor that could sense the obstacles behind and avoid any possible accidents. The head movement for side turning can be timed or some delay could be adjusted for avoiding any sudden movement. A DC voltage regulator can be installed, so that the speed of the wheelchair can be varied as per once wish.

Secure Communication Networks promise a very a good alternative to dedicated secured networks, that is cheap, secure and easily implemented. However, on of the trade offs is the network performance. The increase in processing load due to encryption/decryption, affects the data throughput of the network. This concept looks into an experimental deployment of a network and implement a secure communication network on it, using two standard tunneling protocols: IPSec and SSH. It then compares the performances of the two setups. The project which is done deals with the security systems and is termed as Secure Communication Network (SCN). This project provides solution regarding security systems through which confidential folders or information can be easily send to the manager (Project Leader) of the company. The project consists of three modules: ADMIN, CLIENT, REMOTE ACCESS. ADMIN is administrator of the company who manages the company and deals with every problem. CLIENTS are the employees who work under the Admin and perform the task as requested by the Admin. Using the REMOTE ACCESS module two private networks can also communicate through the public network. In this generic module data will be send from one private network to another network using the encryption mechanism. The software used to build SCN is JAVA,J2EE, and SQL Server. JAVA, J2EE is a high level programming language which has got special features in it, which made us to build our project using JAVA, J2EE. Conclusion This project will be useful for the people working in the company who are being assigned projects by their st


project leaders, to maintain their records on a on a day to day basis. The package has been checked for its capability requirements such as capacity, efficiency, speed and accuracy. The product has been demonstrated to the users. The functionality of all the modules and the module level integration is found to be satisfactory. By choosing powerful Server side programming using JSP & HTML, and can develop the S/W applications like design, implementation and testing methods. The important feature of the software includes user-friendly operations and efficient commanding operations.

Introduction TCP provides a reliable transport layer. One of the ways it provides reliability is for each end to acknowledge the data it receives from the other end. But data segments and acknowledgments can get lost. TCP handles this in two ways. One ways is by setting a timeout when it sends data, and if the data isn't acknowledged when the timeout expires, it retransmits the data. The second way is fast retransmission, if the sender gets three duplicate acknowledgements before the timer could expire, it immediately retransmits the packet for which duplicate acknowledgements were received without waiting for the timer to expire. Objectives Internet topology contains path diversity. While only one end-to-end path is used. The measurement study found that 30% to 80% of the time, an alternate path with lower loss or smaller delay exists. In a measurement study of a large ISP, it was found that almost 90% of pairs of Point-ofPresences (PoPs) have at least four link-disjoint paths between them.

st


The objective of this project is to address the problem of Packet Reordering and hence facilitate deployment of Multipath Routing in future. Methodology Routers typically drop packets when their queue is full. Consider a dropped packet (p i) and its preceding (p i-1) packet; pi-1 was the last packet to be put into the queue before the next packets i.e. pi would be dropped. Being the last one in the queue, it would have an RTT much larger than the average RTT value. Thus, by observing the RTT values would be in a position to predict loss with substantial accuracy. In this algorithm we keep track of RTT, Exponential Weighted Moving Average (EWMA) of the difference in RTTs of packets corresponding two successively received ACKs. Results and Conclusions Data consisting of 1000,5000,10000 and 15000 packets are collected. Two graphs have been plotted using the collected data. They are: 

Number of Packets correctly predicted(Y-axis) as lost V /S Number of Packets lost (X-axis)



Number of Packets correctly predicted(Y-axis) as not lost V/S Number of Packets not lost (X-axis)



Accuracy rate of prediction of lost packet as lost (Accuracy 1)



Accuracy rate of prediction of a not lost packet as not lost (Accuracy 2)

The range and average Accuracy rates are as given bellow 



Average value = 53.77%

Accuracy2 

Range: [49.35%, 60.64%]



It can be concluded that, the Implementation of the proposed algorithm would reduce around 50% false retransmissions of TCP. But, there would be increase in number of timeouts because of false negatives (prediction of lost packet as not lost) Scope For Future Work Immediate extension of this project would be to do more rigorous simulations using ns2. Further one can go on to write a Linux patch for the same.

In proposed model of face recognition dimension reduction is achieved through decimation algorithm and then DCT is applied which exhibits large variance distribution in a small number of coefficients and much of the signal energy lies in low frequencies; these appear in the upper left corner of the DCT.

Introduction Recognition is a generic term, and does not necessarily imply either verification or identification. All biometric systems perform “recognition” to “again know” a person who has been previously enrolled. There are two different ways to recognize a person: verification and identification. Verification (Am I who I claim I am?) involves confirming or denying a person's claimed identity. On the other hand, in identification, the system has to recognize a person (Who am I?) from a list of N users in the template database. Identification is a more challenging problem because it involves 1: N matching compared to 1:1 matching for verification. Objective

DCT of the normalized decimated face image is computed and a certain subset of low-to-mid frequency coefficients having the highest variance is retained as a feature vector which describes face. DCT technique is based on pattern recognition for boundary condition .It involves generating DCT coefficients which have high energy packing properties. Since it requires only few coefficients it is easier to extract them using matlab and finally these values are stored in DSP and used for recognition procedure. Therefore it is more effective to implement in DSP Conclusion

This project focuses on using the fundamentals of digital signal processing to bring about optimized solutions. Image recognition is the process of automatically recognizing the person on basis of individual information stored in the form of image pixels. This project emphasizes on person identification with face as the biometric parameter.

Automatic face recognition system is designed and developed using DSP hardware. Before using DSP hardware the concept was tested in MATLAB. Advantages 1.

The use of a DSP processor accelerates the performance of the system in terms of processing speed, efficiency etc.

2.

There is no requirement for any form of typed code. Hence the system cannot be hacked easily.

3.

The system is extremely versatile and portable.

4.

The scope and applications of the project is tremendous and it can be extended into everyday lives as well.

The continuous operation of the gasifier indicated that the developed model can act both as updraft and downdraft gasifier. The combined mode still requires some more work in the form of air redirection within the combustion zone so that a sustained reduction zone exists simultaneously above and below the combustion zone. As the system was able to support the reduction zone either above or below the combustion zone, but not simultaneously.

Introduction Coal, oil, gas and nuclear energy are the major sources of primary energy. The raising prices and depleting reserves of these sources, is driving the human to search for alternate method of energy production. Biomass gasification is one of the biomass conversion technologies to produce a combustible gas mixture using agro residues. The conventional biomass gasifier involves the processes of drying, heating, pyrolysing, partial oxidation and finally reduction, as the feed passes through it. The gas so produced (producer gas), can be used only for cooking purposes and as fuel in IC engines, due to hydrogen content (18-20%) and CO (18-24%). The conventional gasifier systems include updraft gasifier, downdraft gasifier, fluidized bed gasifier and crossdraft gasifier. Hybrid gasifier is a combination of updraft and downdraft techniques, which allows for dual air exit ports to extract the producer gas. Objectives To produce an energy efficient and high quality gas for both thermal and engine applications, using biomass. Experimental Setup A working model of hybrid gasifier was fabricated for a wood capacity of 8.3 kg and designed for a wood consumption rate of 4.3 kg/ hour. The unit had essential parts like throat, hopper, grate, shaking mechanism, ash pit, airflow suppliers and controls, tuyers, gas outlet ports etc. Gasifier was filled with charcoal in the burning zone and wood pieces in the main chamber without leaving any spaces. Primary and secondary pipes were connected to the blower. Gasifier was fired at nozzles and the primary valve is opened to supply air so that coal in burning zone catches fire and radiates heat into the upper zones to crack the woody biomass into a clean burning fuel. Production of producer gas confirmed by a flame at the flaring port. The gasifier was operated for three modes viz. updraft, downdraft and the combined mode (hybrid mode) to assess the mass flow rates st

Introduction Due to the increasing demand for energy by way of industrialization and population explosion and depleting primary sources of energy, there is an urgent need to develop alternate energy sources. Energy generation using biomass is one such alternate source of energy and is getting wide importance in the recent days. Agriwastes like rice straw, saw dust, sugarcane trash, coir pith, peanut shells, cotton seeds, bagasse, waste wood etc. are known sources of biomass energy materials. On the basis of calorific value, the agriwastes can be comparable to coal. In addition to the above, an effort of using areca nut shells and areca nut powder as an energy material is being tried in the present study. Objectives Production of Biomass Briquettes using Areca Nut Shells and Areca Nut Powder Materials and Methodology Areca nut powder, areca nut shells and other agriwastes (except wood) of low bulk densities were collected. The direct use of these materials in energy production is inconvenient and also uneconomical. For that, these materials need to be processed. Initially, all the agriwastes were dried to reduce the moisture content to less than 5%. Then all the waste products were cut into small sizes. The areca nut shells and the areca nuts were taken and finely ground. The ground 69

powder was sieved to separate powder of 800 , 650 , 425 , 300 and fine powder. By taking the powder of a particular size in 1:1 ratio, briquettes were formed. Similarly, with varying ratio of areca nut shell powder and areca nut powder also, briquettes were formed. The briquettes were cut into uniform size and combusted in an oven. After complete combustion, the ash content and calorific value were determined and the results were tabulated. Results and Conclusions Areca nut shell and areca nut powder based biomass gives higher CV fuel. Abundantly available agriwastes can be used effectively for power generation, after briquetting.

52. CYLINDER PRESSURE MODELING AND SPARK ADVANCE CONTROL IN FOUR STROKE SPARK IGNITION ENGINE COLLEGE

: NITTE MEENAKSHI INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY, BANGALORE GUIDE : SANTOSH KUMAR S STUDENTS : BHARATH M P MANJU BHARAGHAVA REDDY P S PHANEENDRA NADIGER VIMALA

Introduction Current cylinder pressure models are computationally demanding and it is not yet possible to simulate or to have an observer for the cylinder pressure online in conventional engine control units. Therefore, computationally simple models for cylinder pressure in combustion engines needs to be developed. Here a simulation model is developed and validated for the cylinder pressure of a spark ignited engine which is computationally tractable since it does not require a numerical solution of the ordinary differential equations and can thus be used online. One of the key ideas behind the model here is based on the observation that the ideal Otto cycle provides valuable information about the compression and expansion process. These two processes are seen in the real measured pressure traces under normal operating conditions. The real cycle is similar to the ideal Otto cycle and the similarities are largest early in the compression and late in the expansion. It is characterized by the compression and expansion process which are well defined by the states of the fluid. st


Figure 1. Cylinder Pressure v/s Crank Angle (Model Description)

Spark advance control deals with determination of the engine position where the spark plug shall ignite the air-fuel mixture and start the combustion. Engine efficiency and emissions are directly affected by the spark advance, due to its influence on the in-cylinder pressure. The purpose of the engine (and combustion) is to produce work and the optimal spark advance is here defined as the spark advance that gives maximum work if all other parameters are held constant. Simulation Model for Cylinder Pressure is developed based on the model description shown in figure 1. Moreover, the methodology is as follows. 71

The simulation model developed using a C program is capable of predicting the change in pressure during the process of combustion to acceptable level of confidence. The model assumes that the pressure Is constant during the process of intake and exhaust strokes, since there is no much restriction to gas flow during intake and exhaust process. The optimum ignition timing has been established based on the peak pressure concept. It has been 0 found that the ignition timing are optimum at 15 and 0 for a load of 2.5 N and it is 18 f or a load of 4.5 N.

Introduction Peak Pressure Concept A spark-advance control algorithm that maintains a constant peak pressure position (PPP) is therefore close to optimum. This scheme has been validated and used. Mass fraction burned (MFB) Another possibility for describing the position of the combustion is to use the mass fraction burned profile. Heywood states that with optimal spark timing half of the charge is burned (50% mass 0 fraction burned) about 10 after TDC. Other possible measures of good combustion could be the positions for 30% or 90% mass fraction Pressure ratio management Peak Pressure Concept as the combustion descriptor to establish maximum brake torque timing was used to get the results.

: SJM INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY, CHITRADURGA GUIDE : THARESH S. STUDENTS : MALLIKARJUNA M. R. RAGHU Y. MOHAN KUMAR H.R. SADANANDAIAH G. C.

Introduction The superior strength and stiffness of laminated composites materials are used in structural and aerospace applications only when the behavior of these materials under different loading conditions, fabric volume fraction is properly understood. The fibrous composites are superior to metals with respect to specific strength and modulus. It is important to note that glass-fabric laminated composites are superior to neither steel or aluminium in specific stiffness. Keeping this in vision, the behavior of laminated composites are characterized for tensile, compressive, flexural, impact and hardness strength with respect to fiber volume fraction, finer orientation and different notch configurations. When a laminated specimen is subjected to mechanical testing, the energy gets absorbed leads to damages such as delaminating, fiber breakage and matrix cracks and also deformation perpendicular to the direction of load. In order to reveal the fractured surface fracture study has been carried out by the project team. The following steps were employed in preparation of laminated composite specimen.

Conclusion  All the constraints have been considered while designing the model aircraft. The analysis and testing have been verified st




Determining the volumetric ratio



Mixing the hardener



Applying release agent to mould



Laying fabric layers using hand lay up techniques.

The hardener is poured into the resin taken in the beaker with constant stirring, while mixing, care is taken to avoid air inclusion and coagulation in the mixture. Epoxy resin has a good adhesion to surface with which it comes in contact hence the inner surface of 73

moulds is coated with bioline in uniform thickness and then the hand lay up technique is used to lay fabric layers in the open mould. Methodology The test specimen is fixed tightly between the end grips of the universal testing machine. The initial reading of the dial gauge extensometer and vernier scale on the vertical column of the machine was set to zero position. Load was gradually increased with constant crass head speed. Dial gauge and machine scale were taken at every 20 Kg and 40 Kg until the specimen breaks. The specimen is made up of Nylon-Epoxy-Eglass. The dimension of the tension test specimen is noted. The tension test standard is D3039 /D3039 M. Conclusion 

From the results it is noticed that the strength of the composite varies linearly.



It is observed that the young modulus of the laminates kept under hard water increases with time period.



When these laminates are kept under soft water for different periods the young’s modulus has increased.

In this project a prototype model is developed which disseminates agricultural advisories as short messages. The model consists of push type service in which weather forecast and crop wise advisories are sent regularly, and a pull type of service in which farmers can query about commodity prices. The commodity prices are retrieved directly from the internet. A Nokia handset is connected to computer for sending and receiving messages from the clients. SMSLib a Java package which implements AT commands for sending and receiving the messages is used. A simulation model also developed using Java Wireless Toolkit which provides flexibility in testing the project under different scenarios.

Figure 1.

Objectives The project aims in sending advisories as short messages over existing mobile network. Only those advisories which are relevant to particular farmer. Methodology The system provides two types of services push and pull type service. Push-type messages are sent regularly or when certain criteria are met, while pulltype messages are sent on the user’s request by SMS. In push type service, every day the database is checked for new advisories which may be applicable on that day. If any advisories are present then message is sent only to those farmers who have registered for that particular crop. The agricultural advisories are developed by agricultural experts by considering different aspects like climate, geographical information, manures available, new research, etc. In pull type service farmers can retrieve current commodity prices from the internet using short message. When a farmer asks for commodity price the server looks up the same in the internet and retrieves the data and sends as short message. The database is used here to store the information such as phone number, name, and crop about users and also advisories which are classified according to crop. The commodity prices are directly retrieved from the web and all the html tags are parsed and only the required prices are sent as message. A handset is connected to server for sending and receiving the message via USB. AT commands are used here to communicate between handset and the computer. The existing GSM/CDMA network provides short message service so that these messages can be easily sent to farmers. The system overview is as shown in st


Figure 1: System Overview. The project is implemented both in simulation and real network platform. In simulation, Java wireless toolkit is used. For real network implementation Nokia 6610 handset with CA-42 cable is used. Conclusions In this project a prototype model is developed, which presents a new way of communication between agricultural experts and farmers. This project made use of short message service provided by existing mobile/wireless communication network to disseminate agriculture related advisories and weather forecast to farmers’ community. The farmers can also know market rate and fluctuations, as and when required by querying through the proposed service system. The present market rate from the Internet is effectively dispatched dynamically on request. Future Scope The proposed system can be provided with local language understandable by the farmers of the particular location and community. Similarly, the project can be developed to collect more information about a farmer such as soil type, irrigation method etc. which helps the experts to recommend more customized advisory to individual farmer. Further, this 77

project can be extended to provide social and medical services for rural, suburban area people. Image based interactive system can also be developed which makes the system more user friendly.

59. ROUTING SIMULATOR COLLEGE

: GM INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY, DAVANGERE GUIDE : INDIRA S P STUDENTS : ANUSHA A J MANJUSHA POORNIMA M JANGLER PUNEETHA T

Introduction The Routing Simulator is learning “how to get from here to there". It employ the term routing simulation to refer in general to all the things that are done to discover and advertise paths from here to there and to actually move packets from here to there, when necessary. When a packet is received by the router or is forwarded by the host, they both must make decisions as to how to send the packet. To do this, the router and the host consult a database for information known as the routing table. Objectives The Routing Simulator has the following objectives: 1. The topology of the subnet should be displayed with routers designated with computer images and links with lines 2. The Routing table of the subnet should be displayed showing various source and destination. 3. Various routing algorithms are implemented for the given topology. 4. The algorithms are simulated which shows the next hops of each router. 5. Time delay is calculated based on bandwidth and data rate, which suggests the efficient routing algorithm for various topologies 6. Processing of packets is done which displays routing table. 7. When a router is down, the user should be intimated. Method of Implementation For implementing all the above objectives the following routing algorithms were used. These algorithms choose the routes and data structures for implementation.

78

1. Flooding : In this method, every incoming packet is sent out on every outgoing line. 2. Source Routing: A technique whereby the sender of a packet can specify the route that a packet should take through the network. 3. Distance Vector (Bellman-Ford): Each router shares the knowledge about the entire network with its neighbors. The routing algorithm used in RIP, the Bellman-Ford algorithm 4. Link state: It performs the following functions. 

Learn about the neighbors.



Measuring line cost



Building link state packets.



Distributing link state packets.



Computing the new routes.

5. RIP (Routing Information Protocol) : An interior gateway protocol (IGP) for routing protocols on internal networks. 6. Hot –Potato: To control the congestion occurred during packetransferring. Conclusion The smaller networks can be analyzed and the results can be employed in larger networks to make routing efficient and economic. As the simulator has provision for the crashing of routers, it intimates the user to follow a new path. It can be employed in real networks to increase the performance of routers and links. As it not feasible in real networks to test algorithms and then implement a best one, Routing Simulator can be helpful. Hence it is useful for people who provide networking services and those who design networks.

Introduction The fact that the signature is widely used as a means of personal verification emphasizes the need for an automatic verification system. Verification can be performed either Offline or Online based on the application. Online systems use dynamic information of a signature captured at the time the signature is made. Offline systems work on the scanned image of a signature. In this study, a method for offline verification of signatures using a set of simple shape based st


geometric features. The features that are used are Baseline Slant Angle, Aspect Ratio, Histograms, Center of gravity, slope of the line joining the centers of Gravity of two halves of a signature image, the mask features and the grid features. Objective To present an efficient and effective algorithm to detect random, simple and skilled forgeries and provides a system with less time and space complexity. Overview of the system The proposed system is divided into two major parts 

Training with only genuine signature samples.



Verification or recognition of given signature.

The steps involved are Preprocessing, Background elimination, Noise reduction, Width normalization, Thinning, and Feature extraction. Verification of signature: Signatures are composed of special characters and flourishes and therefore most of the time they can be unreadable. Intrapersonal variations and interpersonal differences make necessary to analyze as complete images but not as letters and words put together. As signatures are the primary mechanism both for authentication and authorization in legal transaction. Verification is the decision about whether the signature is genuine or forgery. In this decision phase the forgery images is classified in three groups. 1) Random 2) Simple and 3) Skilled. The software product developed for detecting the signature forgeries is as follows: The user selects the signature to be given as input. It is stored in bitmap file.



The proposed algorithm is applied on the selected signature.



The algorithm finds whether the signature is genuine or forgery.



Applications The software developed can be used for detection of forgeries in signatures.

st






Handling non existing situations created by fake signatures by forging the original ones. Can be used in Banks, Passport verifications and property registrations to detect forgeries.



Widely used in the fields of finance and security.



Used for securing credit card transaction.

Conclusion The team has developed a user friendly interface which provides complete automation of signature verification. Here the mean signature for each person is stored. Thus the time complexity and space complexity is reduced. An accuracy of 98% for true acceptance and 95% for true rejection is seen.

Different types of vehicle speed limiters are in current use for regulating traffic especially across roads near populated areas such as hospitals, shopping malls, and schools. Figure 2: Control Flow in Adhyapak Objective The control flow in Kaksha – Vidyarthi is as shown:

In this project the speed of the vehicles can be automatically controlled through wireless communication. The vehicle entering within a certain range cannot exceed a particular speed value. Methodology

Figure 3: Control Flow in Vidyarthi Various building blocks of the application, were analysed. The block diagram shows how these components can be used to setup a virtual classroom. st


The system developed has two sections: RF transmission section and the RF receiver section. The RF transmission section consists of a RF transmitting module comprising of transmitter and encoder. This transmitter has to be mounted on the place where the speed of the vehicles is to be controlled.

81

The receiver module consisting of a receiver circuit with a driver module is placed in the vehicles. When the vehicles enters the range, the device receives the signal and activates the relay. The output of the relay is connected to a microcontroller that senses the received signal. The microcontroller is programmed to control the fuel flow control module, which is a combination of stepper motor and flow control valve. The fuel flow control module is placed between the carburetor and the engine of the vehicle. Once the stepper motor gets activated, it operates on the valve, which regulates the fuel flow into the engine. Hence speed of the vehicle is controlled.

The scope of this project includes getting acquainted with prototype preparation, improvement, suggestions in existing product range for increased productivity, performance, reduction in number of parts and operations. The design methodology begins with the market survey, concept generation, selection, material and process selection, CAD and physical modeling and CATIA software was used for 3D modeling.

When the3 vehicle exits from this particular range for about 20 mts, the receiver gets deactivated. As a result the micro controller sets the running condition of the vehicle to normal state.



Conclusion This project combines several pioneering techniques that integrate wireless and control technologies in order to implement a reliable speed control system. The power of the proposed system lies in its flexibility and capability of development with little hardware changes such as changing speed control methods using the software of the base station in lesser time.

research. Many automotive components already produced by using natural composites

are

static bending strength, impact strength, and hardness has made.

The present work focuses on investigating the Effect of Matrix and Composite Curing Time on Mechanical Behaviour of Areca Composites.

6.

Objectives

Results and Discussions

The primary goal of this research project is to develop a mechanics-based experimental approach to estimate the elastic properties of random orientated areca composites. The specific objectives of this project are to:

1.

The mechanical properties for areca-epoxy composite observed in this study are higher compared to areca fibers reinforced with urea formaldehyde and melamine urea formaldehyde resin.

•

Understand the effects of chemical treatment on mechanical behavior of areca fibers composites.

2.

•

To study the physical and chemical composition of areca fibers.

Areca epoxy composites are good substitute for wood based composites when strength factor is the main criteria. When cost of the composites are considered, areca-melamine urea formaldehyde composites are best suited for the replacement of other natural fibers composites

•

To study the behavior of Areca –Urea formaldehyde, ArecaMelamine Urea formaldehyde and Areca-Epoxy-LY556 composites under different mechanical loads by using experimental methods.

3.

As the composite curing time increases the composite becomes more brittle, this in turn increases the impact strength of t he composite.

4.

Replacement of glass fibers by natural fibers as the reinforcing component in thermoplastic composites is the distinctive improvement in crash behavior.

5.

Reinforcement of natural fibers are safer than glass fiber parts.

6.

The results suggest that areca composite is a good substitute for natural fibers like banana, cotton, coir, sisal, jute etc and even for wood composites, motivated by potential advantages of weight saving, lower raw material price

7.

Areca fiber has a very promising future in the composite industry.

•

•

Quantify key variables to contribute for optimum mechanical behavior of areca composites under different loading conditions. To develop a product(furniture, table, desk ete) from areca fibers composite

Methodology 1.

The mesocarp (fibrous husk) were kept in water for a period of 7 days, then the fibers were separated from husk manually and dried at room temperature for a period of 15 days to remove the moisture content.

2.

The areca fibers were chemically treated to improve the mechanical properties using sodium hydroxide (NaOH).

3.

The fibers are washed with few drop of acetic acid and distilled water. The washed fibers were dried for a period of 7 days at room temperature.

4.

The composites were prepared with three different types of matrix systems namely urea formaldehyde, melamine urea formaldehyde and Epoxy-LY556.

5.

Comparative study of mechanical properties like tensile strength, compression strength; st


Moisture absorption test was also carried out as natural fibers have more affinity towards moisture and results were reported.

Scope for the Future Work 1.

The current work can be continued by using high quality resin systems to arrive at optimum mechanical properties.

2.

The present work limits fiber loading in matrix systems to about 60% by weight of fiber.

3.

This work can be further proceeded by increasing the fiber volume fraction by the use of new composite processing technique.

4.

The present work can be continued by blending the Areca fibers with other natural fibers.

Indian power sector is facing serious problem of lean revenue collection as against energy supplied due to energy thefts and network losses. All the steps taken so far, regarding the improvement of the revenue collection did not yield satisfactory results. It is reported that the most faulty sub system is the metering and meter reading system. The traditional billing systems are discrete, inaccurate, costly, slow, and lack flexibility as well as reliability. Therefore, several attempts were made to automate the billing systems. Even though accurate and fast readings are obtained, bill payment is still performed based on the old billing procedure. They require an individual/agent to physically come and take down the readings and report to house hold/office the amount one has to pay.

Introduction The basic requirement of agriculture activity is a irrigation. In regular irrigation there will be a wastage of water about 40% because some of plants does not require much of water and some plants may require still more. This problem can be solved by using a technique of sensing actual moisture level of the soil and according to the condition pump can be controlled. st


The sensors which are inserted in t o the soil absorb the level of moisture and in a driving stage this is further improved and fed to a microcontroller.

the system is controlling wild animals to entering into a field by providing mild shock through the fence but it should not be harmful for the wild animal and also to human beings.

Objective According to the moisture level of the soil there is a change in conductivity between two probes. So the microcontroller is designed in such way that as the moisture level develops between probes reach a normal or abnormal values. The output of microcontroller triggers the pump to irrigate the fields. The microcontroller also receives a logical signal of the pump condition depends upon its temperature. During dry running (without water) the temperature of the pump would increase. Microcontroller of the system play very pivotal role in on and off.

Any theft condition of the pump will be indicated with a wireless link. A special kind of sensor is provided below the pump to control the theft. As the receiver is fixed at farmers house so that, as it receives a switching signal, an alarm generator generates an alarm and an indication LED indicates the status.

Future Enhancements •

Introduction The main purpose of this project is to exchange information between two control units. Controller Area Network is a protocol which is used very widely in the automotive domain. This project perform three types of communications like serial communication between PC and level shifter, SPI communication between atmega16L microcontroller and MCP2515, CAN communication between CAN infineon node and CAN bus. The primary reason for designing this device is to reduce man power and time consumption. Objective

Methodology It has initiated the heater to start heating the solution by using a clip switch. The solution is heated for a definite time till it is observed to attain the desired temperature. Once the temperature is attained the timer activates the valves to pipette the solution into the main beaker from the other two beakers placed at the adjoining side of the main beaker. After the solution is pipette, the PIC microcontroller signals the stirrer to stir the solution in the beaker. The stirrer stirs the solution till the solution turns into required solution. This completes one complete cycle. This procedure continues for every solution to be prepared.

The main purpose of the project is to exchange information between two control units. Any CAR has various accessories such as Power windows, Power steering, Engine control, Mirror control, Wipers. These nodes are connected together and the information between these nodes is exchanged through CAN Protocol. Methodology 1.

Define task: To create a system which allows the exchange of information between two control units through CAN bus.

2.

Solution: CAN infineon node is used to monitor the transmission and reception of messages between two control units. CAN bus is used to exchange the information between two control units.

3.

Designing solution: Listing down the required components and necessary equipments for each unit and design an abstract model with basic units.

4.

Building circuit: An actual circuit diagram by connecting all the components resulting in a working model.

5.

Write the control program: As the project involves a CAN working as a control unit to control different units, a code is written to control the whole system and make it work as required.

6.

Test and Debug: The model is working as per the designed requirements and debugging the errors.

Conclusion This model can be used to prepare any amount of nanoparticle solution just by varying the resistance in the circuit. Hence this model finds application not only in this company but it can also be used in paint industry, pharmaceutical industry and where such procedure is used for making their respective products, where in two solutions of the varying quantity have to be mixed to form a single solution, required for their application. Different applications require different operating temperatures, and also the quantity of solution to be pipette. These values depend on the resistance value. This model is completely cost efficient and easy to install and use. The main advantage of this model is that it reduces human errors. 92

matching technique [2], frame-based approach [3] and Dynamic Time Warping (DTW) technique [4, 5]. Among these DTW is considered to be more efficient for comparison and retrieval. Hence DTW technique has been implemented in this system. The developed system allows the user to simply hum the tune into a computer microphone, and the system searches through a database of songs for melodies containing the tune and returns a ranked list of search results. The user can then find the desired song by listening to the results.

Conclusions CAN provides an inexpensive, durable network that helps multiple CAN devices communicate with one another. An advantage is that electronic control units (ECUs) can have a single CAN interface rather than analog and digital inputs to every device in the system. This decreases overall cost and weight in automobiles. Each of the devices on the network has a CAN controller chip and is therefore intelligent. All devices on the network see all transmitted messages. Each device can decide if a message is relevant or if it should be filtered. In addition, every message has a priority, so if two nodes try to send messages simultaneously, the one with the higher priority gets transmitted and the one with the lower priority gets postponed.

INFORMATION SCIENCE AND

The main advantage is that a user can search for songs by humming the tune of the song, rather than by specifying their file names, which may be irrelevant to any of the song’s details. The search is designed with some amount of tolerance to possible errors that may be introduced due to inexact query specification, pitch tracking errors, etc. Objectives To develop a system that, 

Receiver block diagram: Introduction This instrument makes use of simple, readily available electronic components such as Piezoelectric sensor and LM35 temperature sensor. As the name depicts, it is used for human body pulse rate and body temperature measurement as a portable wireless device. This is essential where continuous monitoring of pulse rate and body temperature is required. Source for the measurand is human body which generates the parameters required. The physical parameters are converted into electrical parameter using signal-conditioning circuits and to display the same. To accomplish this, a piezo-electric sensor and temperature sensor, comparator, PIC micro controller, LCD displays and transmitter and receiver pair are required. Using RF transmitter and receiver pair the data can be displayed in the remote area. Methodology The piezo-electric sensor produces an output voltage variation whenever there is a pulse at its input, the no of times the voltage variation occurs for a minute gives the pulse rate. The temperature sensor (LM35) whose output voltage is proportional to the absolute temperature in degree Celsius with a power supply of +5v is used for measuring body temperature.

Methodology This project uses an arrhythmia classification algorithm comprising of four steps of preprocessing, feature extraction, analysis of variance based feature reduction and Support Vector Machine based arrhythmia classification. The proposed SVM classifier is being trained for four classes using the reduced features and tested for the remaining features. This shows satisfactory performances in discriminating four types of arrhythmia, namely normal sinus rhythm (NSR-20 segments), Atrial fibrillation, Ventricular fibrillation and Premature Ventricular Contraction. Conclusion 

Introduction In electrocardiogram (ECG), a record of the biopotentials is associated with the contractions of the heart muscle. A description of some of the common types of signals that can be derived from the ECG is also presented. Arrhythmias are life-threatening medical emergencies that can cause cardiac arrest and sudden death. It is a group of conditions in which the electrical activity of the heart is irregular or is faster or slower than normal. Objective The objective of the study is to classify arrhythmias using support vector machines based on feabures of Heart Rate variability analysis (HRV). HRV



It is proposed a SVM based arrhythmia classification algorithm which provided a new approach to the problem of pattern recognition. The pattern Heart Rate variability along with SVM provided a unique method to classify Arrhythmias. It has achieved an overall accuracy of 96.5% for the total of four features in the time domain. The results showed that the proposed method is effective for classification of cardiac arrhythmia, with acceptable high accuracy. It is evident that the combination of the linear and nonlinear features together with the employed classifier is very effective. The main advantage of this method compared to other approaches in the literature is that it is completely based on RR-interval signal which can be extracted with high accuracy even for noisy or complicated ECG recordings, while the extraction of all other type of ECG analysis is seriously affected by noise.

The bamboo yarn can be easily converted into woven and knitted fabrics. During weaving and knitting, the yarn performance was good. Both woven and knitted fabrics can be converted into garments without much difficulty. The appearance and performance of these garments are very good.

COLLEGE

Introduction Bamboo is highly renewable grass variety and is more eco-friendly due to its biodegradability. The thickness and whiteness degree of bamboo fiber is similar to that of a classic viscose fiber. Bamboo can be spun pure or can be blended with other materials like cotton, hemp, silk, glycol etc. and garments like sweaters, bath suits, mats etc. can be made with it. Objectives Development of bamboo yarn to woven and knitted fabrics, studying their properties and converting these fabrics into garments. Materials and Methods Bamboo yarn was procured and tested for relevant parameters like count, tenacity, Tpcm, elongation etc. Bamboo yarn was wound on to prins to use as weft and cotton polyester yarn as warp and plain fabric was woven. Also, 100% bamboo yarn was used to produce single jersey knitted fabric. Both woven fabric and knitted fabric were subjected to scouring and bleaching. At the end, the mixture of soda ash and caustic soda was used a fixing agent and the materials were finally washed. The knitted fabric was tested for counts per cm, wales per cm, stitch density, course length, loop length, weight etc. The woven fabric was tested for ends per cm, picks per cm, warp cover, weft cover, crimp%, thickness, weight etc. and the results were tabulated. 96

81. EXTRACTION OF SILK SERICIN FROM DEGUMMING WASTEWATER AND ITS REUTILIZATION IN BIOMEDICAL FIELD COLLEGE

: BAPUJI INSTITUTE OF ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY, DAVANAGERE GUIDE : DR. K MURUGESH BABU STUDENTS : ATHIKH S A KAVERI A J MUJEVARU RAFI NANDINI S B

Introduction Sericin is a valuable protein, which acts as a glue to fix fibroin fibre together in cocoon. It will be removed as waste, before dyeing and finishing. It still contains valuable protein, and has properties like anti-oxidation, antibacterial, UV resistant, absorb and release of moisture etc. The constituent of sericin is about 2030% of the total weight of cocoon. Most of the sericin is removed during degumming and is discarded as wastewater, which also increases the treatment cost in addition to the loss of such a rich proteinous material. This sericin can be recovered and can be used for various biomedical and tissue engineering applications Objectives To carryout degumming of silk with various techniques, followed by extraction of sericin from degumming wastewater by dialysis and centrifugation methods. Also to convert the extracted sericin from liquid state to powder, gel, film etc. forms and to characterize these products. Methodology The degumming of cocoons was carriedout by using soap (various types) and also the hot water, and the st


degummed wastewater was used for extraction of sericin. The degummed wastewater was subjected to dialysis to separate the low molecular weight degumming product from high molecular weight product through semi-permeable membrane with circulated distilled water and constant stirring. The heavier portion remained inside the bag. Alternately, this can be achieved by centrifugation. The dialyzed protein sample was subjected to aeration for 120 minutes, to remove the water content present in the dialysis bag. After that, the o protein obtained was dried in an oven at 55 C for 10 minutes and the product was ground to get fine

powder. The sericin content obtained above was tested for Nitrogen content, and also subjected to UV absorption Spectra and microscopic examination Results and Conclusions The degumming of cocoon using baby soap degumming method has yielded more sericin content. The sericin powder obtained by baby soap degumming has shown better properties against UV protection, which suggests that it can be used in skin therapy effectively. Also, it is found to give fine and uniform crystals.

body. Body temperature drops, slowing metabolism and lessening demand for oxygen. After surgery the body must be rewarmed. Conclusion After completing this project the team concluded that the blood oxygenator can perform oxygenation of blood and circulation of blood in whole body. The blood oxygenator works efficiently and thus the working instrument can perform task easily.

Introduction

83. FOOT TO KNEE MASSAGER

The blood oxygenator (widely known as heart-lung machine) is a device used during open heart surgery to perform the heart’s function. It forms a part of an apparatus called the heart lung machine which performs the combined functions of the heart and lungs.

COLLEGE

To function, the heart-lung machine must be connected to the patient in a way that allows blood to be removed, processed, and returned to the body. Therefore, it requires two hook-ups. One is to a large artery where fresh blood can be pumped back into the body. The other is to a major vein where “used” blood can be removed from the body and passed through the machine. In addition, the machine requires a cooling system for cooling of the blood (28ºC).

Methodology A) Power supply unit Step-down Transformer: The conventional supply, which is generally available to the user, is 230V AC. It is necessary to step down the mains supply to the desired level. This is achieved by using suitably rated st


step-down transformer. While designing the power supply it is necessary to go for higher rating transformer than the required one. There are three reasons for this. First reason is, across the secondary winding of the transformer there is no guarantee of getting the equal voltages. Secondly, for proper working of the regulator IC it needs at least 2.5V more than the expected output voltage. Last reason is to compensate the power loss offered by the transformer windings and power supply circuit itself. B) Power supply for motor The 230V, 50Hz mains supply is stepped down by using a 12-0-12V, 5 amp step-down transformer. To convert this AC input to a pure DC, and a bridge rectifier IC is used. C) Power supply for switching circuit The 230V, 50Hz mains supply is stepped down by using a 12-0-12V, 1 amp step-down transformer. To convert this AC input to a pure DC, and a full wave rectifier consisting of 2 diodes i.e., IN 4007 arranged as shown in the power supply Circuit..

Introduction

Switch Circuit Working The regulator IC provides 9 volts supply to the circuit. The comparator IC compares the 3 levels and drives the respective opto-coupler which drives the transistor and which in turn drives the relays. There are three stages in the switching circuit. They are the off stage; low-speed stage and the highspeed stage. The cuff is first wrapped around the foot. The air from the outlet of the sleeve passes through the connecting tube that connects the outlet of the sleeve and inlet of the cuff and inflates the cuff. Therefore in the first half cycle the cuff inflates when air is pushed in from the sleeve which in turn induces compressing force on the muscles of the foot and calf muscles. During the second half of the cycle the cuff deflates due to withdrawal of the air back into the sleeve by the action of the piston. Therefore releasing the pressure on the muscles and in turn the muscles relax. Thus the inflating and deflating action of the cuff induces compression and relaxation of the muscles providing massaging effect. st


In recent times, there is a demand for making concrete construction industry sustainable due to depletion of virgin materials. High volume fly ash concrete which utilizes large amount of fly ash, a waste product of thermal power plant, satisfies the requirement of a sustainable concrete. Methodology In the present work an attempt has been made to develop the mix proportions for pavement quality concrete and lean concrete. Also it is aimed to study the variations of ultrasonic pulse velocity and rebound number values for high volume fly ash concrete. A total number of 280 cubes of size 150 x 150 x 150 mm and 240 prisms of size 100 x 100 x 500 mm are cast. For testing purpose 6 number of compressive strength cubes are casted for each fly ash percentage and 5 prisms flexural strength are casted for each fly ash percentage .The fly ash percentages were used are 0, 50, 60 and 70. From the limited experimental investigation carried out and it is recommended that high volume fly ash concrete is economically viable and environment friendly. Maximum compressive strength attained for HVFAC mix was 24.8Mpa for superplasticized concrete with water cement ratio of 0.43 and 50 percent replacement of cement by Fly ash. The

Introduction

This application enables the user to open any website, and perform text entry. It can execute navigational commands. Thus it provides a hands free web navigation experience for the internet users.

An approach has developed an online voting system based on the principles of anthropometry using face recognition for authentication of voters. Anthropometry is the study of the measurements of body parts. It employ the Eigenfaces algorithm for providing facial authentication. This algorithm calculates Eigen vectors and their Eigen values corresponding to specific characteristics of the face and these are later used to classify voters. The voting system can be deployed on a large scale such as to make it more accessible to the voters than current voting booths. The manual work required during the whole voting process right from the registration of the voters to the counting of the votes is reduced.

87. SYNTHESIS OF FACIAL IMAGE USING DIFFERENT ORIENTATIONS COLLEGE : MALNAD COLLEGE OF ENGINEERING, HASSAN GUIDE : GEETHA KIRAN A. STUDENTS : MADHUSUDHANA C. J. MOHAMMED AKRAM ULLA SHERIFF PURUSHOTHAM K. MANJUNATHA H. S.

Introduction Face synthesis is very complex and challenging work in image processing. Face synthesis is a complex job because there is no exact method to synthesis the face of a person using his / her other facial images of different orientations. Face analysis is a technique which is used for analyzing or recognizing the facial feature. There is no need of changing an original image, only comparison work is carried out in most cases. In this method features are to be extracted and are to be processed. Synthesis is the most complex work than the analysis because analysis does’nt require to change anything in given image but synthesis is a method where original image has to be processed to get required image as an output. But for any image processing method, both analysis and synthesis is needed. This project is about synthesizing facial images for the face poses in different orientation. The proposed solution is based on distance calculation method and texture mapping. The facial features are extracted and they are flipped to get frontal view. Then using distance calculation method the face template is created. Finally, the extracted and flipped features are placed on template to their proper position to get a frontal view of oriented face. Methodology Pose Variance remains a challenging problem for face recognition. Distance calculation method with texture mapping has been proposed to improve the performance of automatic face recognition system. Using this method frontal face images are generated from the multi pose variant images. Before the synthesis, feature point extraction and alignment are executed on the two or more non-frontal images. The synthesis is done using the texture mapping. This method drastically improves the CPU performance because of the texture mapping. For each non-frontal input image an output is generated which will be an approximate frontal view of the given output. The face recognition software can

101

achieve higher recognition rate if the inputs given are frontal rather than the non-frontal ones.

It replaces many remote control for different devices and gives single point control to toggle all the devices. It also overcomes the drawback that exist in infrared technology such as blocking of signals by obstacles in the path, as this product makes use of Bluetooth. User interface developed for the cell phone is extremely user friendly and involves no complications or confusions in using it. Methodology

Conclusion Extraction and synthesis of facial features is the most vital part of face recognition in the field of digital image processing. The simple yet efficient distance method has been implemented for both extracting the significant facial features and to synthesize the face. This method has yielded better results with a good efficiency in terms of space, time and cost. A wider scope for future work like animation of images, forensic applications.

The figure 1 shows the basic block diagram of the project. It contains the transformer which is testing unit for this project, sensing circuit is a combination of relays, bridge rectifiers, capacitors, microcontroller, GSM modem and Mobile at the receiving section.

2. The demonstration is done for a single transformer. With slight modifications in the microprocessor programming and the hardware, this can also be used for multiple transformers.

The working procedure of the project is as follows:

3. The open circuit in transformer reduces the efficiency of the transformer, and may lead to excessive over heating, this will reduce the life span of transformer.

Step 1: Connect the supply points of the model to +5V, +12V and COM terminals of the regulated power supply. ±3.5V is for energizing GSM Module, +12V for the micro-controller AT89S52. The ground connections are all done to the COM terminal. And connect the transformer to the 230V supply points. Step 2: Switch ON the regulated power supply and the AC supply. Step 3: The program in the microcontroller is reset and it starts functioning from the beginning. This is ensured by the ON status of the Red LED. Step 4: Any one switch is closed to create the fault (say for open circuit). The relay will sense fault and it trips its contacts, this operation is indicative of the detection of a fault. This generates a voltage at the input terminals of microcontroller. Step 5: The voltage generated is of the order of 0 volts or few mill volts because we have used negative logic for microcontroller operation.

4. The overheating of the transformer is basically of sustained overloads and short circuits. Increases copper losses and the efficiency of the transformer will reduces. 5. The winding will be over heated and chances of burning out transformer is also more. The power losses will increased and efficiency of transformer will reduces 6. For good operation of the transformer, one should maintain the oil level properly. If oil level decreases means, temperature of the transformer will increase gradually and winding may burns out.

Introduction Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) is an automatic identification method, relying on storing and remotely retrieving data using devices called RFID tags or transponders. An RFID tag is an object that can be attached or incorporated into a living or nonliving product. The idea presented here is a demonstration of these cards in industrial field to control different authorized machinery.

If the correct password is entered, the microcontroller sends a high output signal to the transistor, which acts a switch. When transistor receives a high signal it goes into conducting state and thus activates the relay connected to it. As the relay is activated the device connected to relay can be controlled. Conclusion RFID technology is a well developed technology and already used in asset tracking and electronic payment.

Power theft has become hype in India. Because of this hype all Electricity Boards are running under loss. This directly affects the economy of our country. Power Theft is occurring in almost all the fields like Agriculture sector, Industrial sector Medical sector and in Domestic sector also. The Pilferage of power is done by the consumers where the terminals L1 & L2 are left open, the loads are directly tapped to the supply terminals.

Door mechanism

Methodology A input of 230v ac supply is given to the step down transformer, the transformer used is a center tap type hence the input voltage is reduced to 12v and then it is converted into dc by the help of rectifier (diodes) .Across the rectifier a capacitor is connected which removes the ripples from the dc component,and then the constant supply is obtained from the voltage regulators, and two voltage regulators are used 7805 &7812 which gives a supply of 5v &12v respectively and this supply is given to the required devices such as microcontroller, lcd, RS-Tran receiver. Initially the RFID card is produced to the RFID reader antenna. Then the microcontroller extracts the data from the card with the help of MAX 232 IC which acts as a communication media between microcontroller and RFID reader.

st


Another method of pilferage of power is by connecting low rating loads(Lighting, Fans etc.) to the L1 & L2 terminals but for heavy loads(Water pump sets, Electric Heaters etc.) it is directly connected to the S1 & S2 terminals. The consumers will pay the bill only for low rating loads but they will escape from paying the bills for heavy loads.

Introduction In coffee plantation, the workers will pluck the seeds and then fill in their basket. Once the basket is full they bring it to the counter and weigh it using the analog weighing scale .The person who is in charge may write the weight wrongly,since most of the workers are illiterate they can be cheated. So to avoid this it has designed a system, which weighs the seeds properly and saves to the person’s id with its weight in an electronic device. Using this system the workers are not cheated. They will get correct wages.

Objectives To design power theft alerting device using Programmable Interrupt Controller(PIC) which is both audible and visible. This circuit is capable of detecting the energymeters where the pilferage of power occurs. The circuit uses IR technology which is limited to 10 to 20 feet. The microcontroller is programmed for only eight loads in which it shows only two domestic or industrial loads would be tested.

This project uses some of the software like 

Objective The aim of the project is to automate the coffee plantation using RF card and digital weighing scale. Visual Basics is used for front Design. Daily the employee should swipe the ID card and put the weight on the digital weighing scale. Then the details will be stored in a memory. Finally it is down loaded into a PC for calculating the salary of each worker. Thus by reducing the manual work. Conclusion A prototype model of Power Theft detecting circuit was implemented practically and it reduced in the percentage of pilferage of power. Using PIC 16F 505 can easily recognize the theft occurring in any Energy Meter even for a short duration without manual inspection. This system provides most economic and wireless theft detection method.

Introduction The fault is a defect which shows how something is wrong or how something does not fit in with preestablished laws or principles or how something does not fit in with some pre-defined system. If a fault or some defect occurs in any system then that system does not function properly. Therefore their should be a mechanism which can detect that fault for proper functioning of any system. So in this project the team has designed a system for finding the faults that occurs in the power lines. This system can work only on 230v single phase lines (copper lines). Objectives The objective of this system is to find two kinds of faults, that occur at domestic power line. Those faults are OPEN LINE and OVERLOADED LINE. Methodology 1.

This system is used to detect 2 types of fault as mentioned in problem statement those are 1. Open line 2. Over loaded line .This open wire or open line fault occur when particular line is cut off and secondly fault called over loaded line occur if the load is more than predefined value of load.

2.

Once the mains is connected to the loads, the load start to extract the current. This current is extracted with the help of current transducer HTS 10P which is connected in series with the phase of AC mains.

The following steps are involved (1) Analysis: The system’s services, constraints and goals are established by consultation with client

In this system only 2 lines are used. These 2 different lines are connected to 2 different current transducer, the main supply is AC of 230v, this supply of 230v is made to flow first through current transducer. The current transducer gives us output as voltage signal which varies with respect to flow of current in that particular line, the signal strength will change according to load. The output of CT amplified in two stages with gain of 1db and 40db using IC lm348 , we indeed use non inverting Opamp which has gain which given has GAIN= 1+ Rf/Rin. The amplified fed to recrifier signal convert the alternating current to direct current (half wave rectifier).

Scope of Future Work 

It can also be designed for 3 phase lines.



When the process is completed the rectified output is given to ADC 0809. The ADC converts the analog signal to digital signal by taking 250 test samples.

It can be designed in such way to find exact location of fault in the power lines.



The system can be further improved for auto correction after detection of the fault.

Than microcontroller will compare ADC output with the predefined values and decide whether the line is ok, open or overloaded. If it is open line or overloaded simultaneously it will display the result on LCD as “line is open or overloaded”.

Watermarking has been considered to be a promising solution to protect the copyright of multimedia data through transcoding, because the embedded message is always included in the data. There is no evidence that watermarking techniques can achieve the ultimate goal to retrieve the right owner information from the received data after all kinds of content-preserving manipulations. Because of the fidelity constraint, watermarks can only be embedded in a limited space in the multimedia data. There is always a biased advantage for the attacker whose target is only to get rid of the watermarks by exploiting various manipulations in the finite watermarking embedding space. A more reasonable expectation of applying watermarking techniques for copyright protection may be to consider specific application scenarios. Objective This project provides an augmented watermarking technique wherein noise is added to the watermarked image so that only the end user who has the key for embedding the watermark can both remove the noise 111

and watermark to get a final clear image. The recovery for different values of noise is observed. This system may be implemented as a basic digital rights management system by defining a regime of partial rights using overlaid watermarks, together with respectively added layers of noise, in which the rights of the users define the precision with which the signals may be viewed. Methodology A watermarking system is made up of a watermark embedding system and a watermark recovery system. The system also has a key which could be either a public or a secret key. The key is used to enforce security, which is prevention of unauthorized parties from manipulating or recovering the watermark. For the embedding process the inputs are the watermark, cover object and the secret or the public key. The watermark used can be text, numbers or an image. The resulting final data received is the watermarked data W. The inputs during the decoding process are the watermark is the original data, the watermarked data and the secret or the public key. The output is the recovered watermark. Conclusion This project provides an augmented watermarking scheme for signal protection in a transmission channel wherein the sent signal is notified intentionally so that only the authorized party can have access to original signal and full precision whereas other parties can receive only degraded versions of the signal. This system may be implemented as a basic digital rights management system by defining a regime of partial rights using overlaid watermarks, together with respectively added layers of noise, in which the rights of the users define the precision with which the signals may be viewed. Based on the analysis of results, the main conclusions are as follows: 



The decryption depends on the proper choosing of the keys for embedding the image and the noise. The image is recovered almost perfectly even in the presence of high noise.

People experience serious and sometimes fatal health problems following consumption of unsafe or contaminated food. The contamination may involve food borne disease or chemical hazards. Much of the grain is lost as it is attacked by insects and pests in the field and in storage. Large amount of money is lost annually in food industry due to insect damage, inefficient production and inspection process. Moisture content and temperature are the two basic reasons for growth of insects within grain. Insects eat best part of grain which contains vitamins and minerals. Many techniques have been developed to detect such infested seeds. The project team has developed a model using sound processing technique to separate infested maize seeds from viable maize seeds. The seeds are made to fall on a metal plate, sound generated is detected using a microphone which is processed using MATLAB. The output is given to a fan, which separates the infested seeds from viable seeds. Objective To detect and separate infested maize seeds from viable maize seeds. Methodology The seeds are made to fall on a metal plate one at a time. The sound signal generated is captured using a microphone. This signal is processed using matlab coding. Amplitude of signal is the major concern. Amplitude of the viable seeds is greater than 0.15 V as tested and for infested seeds amplitude is greater than 0.05V and less than 0.15V. the threshold is set to 0.15V. The amplitude is greater than the set threshold then parallel port is deactivated and the fan remains off. The good seeds gets collected on one side. If the amplitude is less than the set threshold, then parallel port is activated due to which the fan is switched on and the infested seeds are pushed so that they are collected on the other side.

Introduction Gesture recognition is human interaction with the computer in which human gestures, usually hand motions, are recognized by the computer. Recognizing gestures as input might make computers more accessible for the physically impaired and make interaction more natural. Gesture recognition is a process by which gestures made by user are made known to the system. A prototype motion processor developed allows a computer to recognize hand motions and to display them in real time on the computer’s display. Proposed applications include word processing using input with hand sign languages, games and other entertainment and educational approaches in which hand motion could result in multimedia effects.

For instance where gesture recognition is used practically, it has been interfaced a simple robot which does the four basic motions: 

Forward Motion

Backward motion





The most natural form of communication in man is through gestures - visual / auditory. The aim of this project has been to control an external hardware using a computer without handling any special hardware. This is achieved by using a camera that records the gestures and feeds it to the computer, where they are classified and corresponding control command is initiated. Methodology Using MATLAB, the team has developed several alternatives that could be used for the recognition process of hand gestures. Just as an illustration to the hardware control through gestures a simple robot that can perform some basic movements like forward, backward and rotations has been demonstrated. The various algorithms presented in this project have been formulated with the aim to suggest several alternatives for the process of gesture recognition. The major advantage of using gestures is to avoid the use of other interfaces based on joysticks, track balls and data gloves. It is also able to control computerized equipments by communicating with the machine in a way similar to humans i.e., by understanding visual input.

st


Hands free function control in vehicles and aircrafts : a driver or a pilot could control an auditory or visual information display while keeping both hands on the controls. Recognizing gestures as input make computers more accessible for the physically impaired and make interaction more natural. Control and navigation in virtual environments such as smart rooms and virtual work environment. Gesture may be perceived by the environment in order to be transmitted elsewhere as a compression technique, to be reconstructed at the receiver.

Conclusion The software provides a user friendly environment, wherein the user does not know the basics of image processing but it can fulfill the requirements of getting the gesture recognized, so that the corresponding specific robot motion is initiated. Hence initiating control of a motion is made possible by a user without manual handling any of the equipment or even any interaction with the PC. The code for both real and non-real still gestures and images were developed and tested successfully. The non-real time code for dynamic gesture i.e., video was developed and tested also. Overall, gesture recognition is still in its infancy and still requires the co-operation of many disciplines. In order to understand hand gestures for humans as well as a computer, a lot of research is to be done in the future in the fields of computer vision and machine learning.

Introduction GPS / GSM based vehicle tracking system is designed for users in land transport businesses and in fleet management, who requires effective and efficient management of vehicles movement. It provides real-time information such as location, speed and related data of the user’s moving vehicles in a concise and easy-to-read format. The system also allows for communication between a central command station and it’s vehicles in relaying information on traffic condition and vehicle breakdowns. Devices used are portable and can be easily installed in all kind of vehicles or any moving objects. The design takes into consideration important factors regarding both position and data communication. Thus the project integrates location determination (GPS) and cellular (GSM) - two distinct and powerful technologies - in a single module. Objective The system described here is a design of a prototype which is very convenient to install and too easy to configure. Each system is equipped with a GPS module that receives signals from series of satellites, calculates its current geographical location and transmits to a central server where it is displayed on a high resolution geographical map. The data is transmitted instantaneously after capturing (Real Time Tracking).

Methodology The proposed system is composed of a transmitter mounted in a remote vehicle and a receiver that can be situated at a base station. Using the stand-alone GPS modules, a person is able to identify his own position. Moveover the friendly achievement of a GSM module was to provide a wireless informationexchange. So it was decided to use both of features to develop the system for the vehicle tracking and emergency communication. To design this it integrated the GPS’s ability to announce user’s coordinates along with the GSM’s function for communicating with control center in a wireless fashion. In order to monitor vehicles nearby an interest spot, each vehicle will be equipped with a GSM / GPS mobile tracker. Each tracker shall receive GPS information and sends it to the control centre. Referring to these coordinates, control center can display all of vehicle’s positions on an electronic map for easily monitoring and controlling their routes. Besides the control centre can also maintain a wireless communication to update alarms, status and parameters such as speed of the vehicle.

Introduction This project is an advanced system for Toll Gate automation and toll collection. The system is designed such that it automatically displays the vehicle number, checks the currency of the smart card and provides access only after verifying the validity of the smart card. The system basically consists of a set of transmitter and receiver, interfacing and processing circuit, signal generator, display circuit, motor, etc. This system automatically identifies the approaching vehicle and records the vehicle number. It then automatically opens the toll gate after electronically deducting a specific amount from the smart card. On the expiry of the validity the toll gate is not opened, thereby, denying access to the vehicle. The system is designed with an intention to reduce manpower and enhance time management.

Methodology

Introduction

The system starts with a lump sum paid in advance to a permanently assigned collection agency’s representative. This sum is inserted, electronically into the memory of a microwave transponder-dataprocessor, normally kept in the vehicle. As the vehicle passes suitably equipped toll collection facilities, a toll transponder receives billing information from the vehicle transponder, calculates the toll, transmits it back to the vehicle transponder where the toll is electronically subtracted from a stored balance. If the resulting balance is not negative, a pass signal is flashed. The information stored in the vehicle transponder’s permanent memory includes a vehicle-owner code, a collection agent’s code and a vehicle-class code. The availability of this information and the toll plus the procedure for increasing the prepaid balance makes possible a computerized and automated double entry bookkeeping and funds transfer system. The stored current balance in the vehicle transponder is always indicated by a finite numeric display.

There are several wireless communication systems running in day-today life such as Radio Frequency Communication. Microwave Communication Systems, etc. In addition to these systems, a new field is emerging for wireless communication is Laser Based Communication System. The emerging importance of space-based system is matched by the maturing of laser technology to enhance military capability and increased data rates and they can be easily deployed since they are small, low power and do not require any radio interference studies.

Introduction In multi-lingual documents the amount of multimedia data captured and stored is increasing rapidly with the advances in computer technology. Script identification is key step that arises in document image analysis especially when the environment is multi-script and multi-lingual. The salient features of this project is to design a software that can read script written in most of the INDIAN languages like Hindi, Kannada, English, etc. Usually such type of projects undergoes the OCR problem. OCR is a type of software designed to translate images of text into machine editable text. Each OCR translates text for particular language only .So for using multi-lingual text identify different scripts and extract parts of same script so as to feed into particular OCR designed for that script. In this project first the images are scanned. The image will be normalized, segmented and then feature extraction is done and those features will be fed into the neural network using a back propagation algorithm the scripts will be recognized. There are other methods in neural network like feed forward, support vector machines but back propagation is well suited. This will be the Multi-Lingual Script Recignition System.

Details of work carried out: First a multi- lingual document is converted into a digitized image and later it is normalized. Since the line by line identification of the script is needed its further line segmented. After line segmentation each line is again normalized. After the important features of each line are extracted and then it is fed into the neural network for the recognition. Typical final output of the system is as follows: THE FIRST LINE OF THE SCRIPT IS HINDI THE SECOND LINE OF THE SCRIPT IS ENGLISH THE THIRD LINE OF THE SCRIPT IS KANNADA Conclusion Using the concepts of image processing and MAT LAB it’s possible to design a system which could identify the different scripts used in a document which contain different scripts. When a multi-lingual script document is to be processed, the respective language OCR’s are to be used. But this MLSR allows to feed the multi-lingual documents and helps in identifying the different scripts. Scope of future work •

Introduction The group has presented an extensible vehicle that is made to follow an intended source of sound using microphone for the detection of sound. Microphone can be used as the transducer. Transducer is the device that converts any real time physical quantity into electrical parameter. Embedded systems are electronic devices that incorporate microprocessors and / or microcontrollers. When using sound, the microphone detects the sound and the output of the microphone is amplified using multistage amplifier. This output is then given to the mono stable multi vibrator. The mono stable multi vibrator gives a single pulse at its output to the microcontroller corresponding to the RC charging constant. Depending upon the inputs to the microcontroller from sensors, the microcontroller decides upon the direction in which the vehicle has to turn.

A device which detects the location of source of sound and moves in that direction for a predetermined distance. Automated systems like robots have become more popular for their ability to carry out specific tasks. Applications It gives new dimension to reconnaissance applications.

Conclusion A car follows the source of sound or IR source. This instrument has the ability to detect the source in the multiple of 90 degrees. Hence it has to be used in a silent environment. Since sound is non-directive in nature the implementation of the project on the sound is restricted only for two directions i.e., forward and backward direction.

Introduction The project aims to provide a low cost powerful chip2 chip communication link. The I C (Inter-Integrated circuit), commonly called as I squared C Bus, is a two wire, low to medium speed communication bus, allowing IC’s to communicate with fewer pins. It is used in many other application fields such as testing and troubleshooting, quality control, EEPROM programming, repair service and verification. 2

Data on the I C-bus can be transferred at rates of up to 100 kbit/s in the Standard-mode, up to 400 Kbit/s in the Fast- mode, or up to 3.4 Mbit/s in the High-speed mode.

The security of the vehicle will increase, along with the key.

The number of interfaces connected to the bus is solely dependent on the bus capacitance limit of 400 pF.

It is an effective implementation of Government Laws.

Compared to other competing synchronous serial 2 interfaces, I C has the least hardware requirements. It requires minimum Installation cost, hence PCB design methodology gets reduced to a great extent. There is minimum wear and tear, as, any number of devices can be added or removed without affecting any other circuit on the bus. 2

Figure : Data transfer on I C bus. Microcontroller (master) connected to an EEPROM (slave) is used along with another Microcontroller (slave). The data is been written and read from EEPROM & Microcontroller for implementing data logging. This project will be implemented using Embedded C. The microcontroller can act as either a master transmitter or as master receiver. The data is transferred based on the START and the STOP conditions initiated by the master. Each device connected to the master is software addressable by a unique address. Simple masterslave relationships exist between the devices.

Only two I/O pins of the microcontroller are needed to communicate with multiple slaves, because each slave is identified by its unique address, not by a separate select line. 2

Because the I C protocol is level-sensitive, its noise immunity is likely to be higher than in edge-sensitive competitors. 2

I C slaves provide feedback to the master, which indicates whether or not transmission was successful. Scope For Further Development In this project the further development can be made by making second microcontroller to act as master using 2 arbitration procedure. As I C supports multiple master devices on the bus at the same time, it provides a powerful feature that optimizes bus use by keeping bus message traffic to a minimum.

Voltage Sensing The input AC voltage is applied to a 12 volts step down transformer. This stepped down voltage is then given to a fullwave bridge rectifier. A capacitor connected in parallel with voltage transformer acts as a filter. A voltage divider circuit has been used to further step down the voltage to values varying between the range of 0 volts to 5 volts from 160 volts to 250 volts .

Description: Load: The load we used comprises of two rheostats (5amp, 100 ohms, 1kw). Sensors: Current and voltage transformers are used to sense the current and voltage which serve as the appropriate input signals for the microcontroller. Microcontroller (PIC): This constitutes the central processor that handles all the data. The PIC will receive appropriate signals from the sensors and converts these analog signals to corresponding digital values, this information is then used to obtain the necessary parameters like power consumed. LCD display 2-line LCD display unit will receive data input from the PIC and displays the data that includes average current, voltage, power values, and information about the overall status of devices including possibly a warning when any of the inputs exceed safe limits.

Introduction

Block Diagram:

Security is a primary objective of any government or commercial organization who deal with large number of people at any given amount of time. This involves a constant monitoring of such areas and thus surveillance of such situations is very important in establishing a secure environment for the people. Monitoring becomes a very difficult issue without the aid of any of the electronic devices such as cameras and CCTV. Motivation for choosing this project is also due to passion for aviation. The project consists of propeller driven gas filled blimp with a wireless camera mounted on it. The propellers are controlled using a radio controlled joystick thus providing the needed navigation once airborne. Objectives To design the wireless link between the transmitter and receiver in order to control the gas filled blimp wirelessly.

•

The blimp required to lift the system is also a major constraint as blimp is not readily available and thus we had to search for other alternatives. After implementing the airborne system, a wireless camera has to be fixed such that the area below the system could be monitored.

•

The primary concern for this project is the weight factor and that the overall system has to be light enough without sacrificing the important components onboard.

•

Methodology

Block Diagram Of Air Survelliance

Results and Conclusion

Short range wireless communication is the cheapest and reliable medium when it comes to operating wirelessly garage doors, remotely turning on/off the lights or activating any switches or equipments remotely.

The control of the blimp attained during the morning at indoors was 120mts.But the same distance decreased to about 90mts at noon. The images transferred by the camera were in the range of 50 feet. The images received in this distance were clear and clean. After the distance of 50 feet the images resulted in the distortion.

Unlicensed band is used for controlling the path of the gas filled blimp, and also relaying back the video feed from the wireless mounted camera to the ground-staff.

The blimp was filled with helium. We found out that the total weight of the helium required to make the total system air-borne was more than the weight of the total setup plus the weight of the balloon.

The Uhf band operating on 433 MHz is chosen for this project as to keep interference at a low level and too limit the length of the operating antenna to a few inches.

This prototype which defines the cheapest way of implementing the idea of air surveillance. With the increase in technology and bigger budget this idea can be made into a large scale models which then could be given to various security agencies and even in the police.

Encoder/Decoder chips from Holtek Semiconductors are used at work on the transmitter side for encoding as well on the receiver side for decoding. The transmitter is powered by a 12 volt Key chain transmitter battery for compactness or for ease of availability. st


Scope for future work The power supply accounted for the maximum weight in this system. Therefore the project was unable to attain the maximum height.

123

A lighter power supply and also smaller propellers to drive the system more efficiently than at the present.

Introduction Most existing camera based security systems involve the use of multiple cameras placed around the room to be monitored. These cameras continuously record video footage of the room and save it on a central monitoring station.

Testing the sensor circuit : The sensor was placed on the surface of a table and its output was observed for vibrations caused by tapping on the table. Verifying the keypad interface The next step was to verify the keypad interface to see whether the code works properly. The code was tested by burning into another microcontroller. Integrating the system By assembling the stepper motor(along with the camera), sensor circuits and the keypad with the main microcontroller kit. The keypad was integrated into the system whose activation depends on the password entered on the keypad.

Instead of this, it may use a different system in which a single camera is used, that can slew around the room and record only when it is alerted by the presence of any intrusion. Such a system would consist of three components - sensors that detect intrusion; the camera that slews to the point of intrusion and takes pictures; and the keypad that is used to interface with the system which allows any person to disable the system by entering the right password. Objectives To design advanced security with an affordable and less complex system referred as “Invisible Eye” Figure 1. Block diagram of the Invisible Eye system.

read the current location string, replies back to the previously noted number and deletes the message from Inbox and sent items as well such that the owner of the cell phone gets no clue about the whole event. Whenever the mobile is switched on, the Rtelserver will check the IMSI number weather Sim as been changed or not. if it is changed then Rtelserver will retrieve the location string and new IMEI number and it will send it to predefined number. The application is designed to run in hidden mode, such that the user will have no. idea about the application.

Introduction Many technologies embody the ability to locate and track people. Person-location and person tracking are being facilitated by new technologies like mobile phones. The Location String display on the cell phones is one of such features. This location string could be used to track a person or the mobile phone itself whose location is reasonably inferred to be in close proximity to the actual values.

Location based tasks: The server side application is mainly running on a series 60 platform and is developed using the symbian c++ with the symbian operating system in it. Wireless Communication medium

A mobile telephone is able to initiate a communication, via the base-station that runs the local 'cell' in which the user is currently located, and hence the network of stations, to the desired addressee. Even when it is 'off', or 'on standby', the device sends transmissions to the local tower, providing a stream of data that enables tracking of the person's movements. These are capable of being recorded and subsequently used and analyzed. This particular data is used to track the location of the person / the lost cell phone. Objectives To track the location of the lost cell phone or track the location of a person without his knowledge just by sending an SMS. This can also be used to track the misplaced cell phones and helps in surveillance system.

Introduction Consumption of natural gas and/ or LPG is increasing in various segments starting from domestic cooking to industrial purposes and even in the transportation sector. This eventually demands for large transportation volumes, which is possible only by way of pipelines. Leakage of gas in such pipelines can lead to fire accidents and is a serious threat to the environment. Hence it is necessary to have a system in place, which can sense the gas leakage and activate a predetermined mobile/ phone number, so that appropriate action can be taken in time, to prevent any untoward incidents.

118. IMPLEMENTATION OF RFID AND ITS APPLICATIONS COLLEGE : PDA COLLEGE OF ENGINEERING, GULBARGA GUIDE : SARA ANJUM STUDENTS : ANITHA SHETTY BASAVANNEVVA CHOUDHARI BEBI N. HALASANGI KAVITA

Introduction Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) is a means of identifying a person or object using a radio frequency transmission. The technology can be used to identify, track, sort or detect a wide variety of objects. Communication takes place between a reader and a transponder often called a tag. Tags can either be active (powered by battery) or passive (powered by the reader field), and come in various forms including smart cards, tags, labels, watches and also embedded in mobile phones. Methodology The RFID tag is a low functionality microchip with an antenna connected to the item to be tracked or identified and stores the unique identification number of the item. These chips transform the electromagnetic energy of radio-frequency signals from a RFID reader / transceiver to respond by sending back a signal. The data transmitted by the tag may provide identification or location information, or specifics about the product tagged such as price, color, date of purchase, etc.

Objectives To design a suitable system for detection of gas leakage in pipelines and activate the alarm on a predetermined phone/ mobile number. Description The microcontroller does all the controlling activities system by executing a pre-stored program in its memory. ATMEL’s 89C51 microcontroller was chosen for the study. In addition, LPG sensors, amplifiers (signal conditioners), Analog-Digital Converter (ADC), relays, relay drives, LCD display, modem interface etc. are used. To control the flow through the pipeline, solenoid valves were installed in the pipeline. The total system was designed to work on DC power supply system using batteries. Conclusions The above system worked effectively and immediately blocked the gasflow after any leakage is detected. This reduces the fire incidents.

The readers communicate with the tags for reading / writing the information stored on them as well as update the servers, which may be standalone or networked. Readers may be fixed or mobile. The reader, an antenna packaged with a transceiver and decoder, emits a signal activating the RFID tag so it can read and write data. When an RFID tag passes through the electromagnetic zone, it detects the reader’s activation signal. The reader decodes the data encoded in the tag’s circuit and the data is passed to the host computer RFID system and can be distinguished by frequency range. Finally the data acquired by the readers is passed to a system software, which may run special RFID software to filter the data and route it to the correct application to be processed into useful information.

Voice Controlled Autonomous Robot with Obstacle Avoidance (VCATOR) has a simple neural network which has the ability to move forward and it performs maneuvers to avoid the objects as it encounters them. Due to the complexity of the project, it was divided into modules which were built over time and then assembled together to build the whole system. The main modules of this project are obstacle avoidance module and voice command module. The obstacle avoidance module implements simple obstacle detection using a dual forward looking infrared emitter / detector pair. The robot’s brain uses a biologically inspired neural network for maneuvering. Objectives The objectives of this machine were design and construct the platform, implement a simple, neural network based control routine, implement minimal sensors for obstacle avoidance.

Methodology The word “autonomous” means a totally independent machine that can carry out the functions for which it has been designed. The functions may be like navigation through a hostile environment avoiding all possible obstructions, looking after a process in process control applications, reconnaissance etc. Four tires were used for the robot and as a reasonable compromise between the hardware complexities and the software complexity required for stability when fewer tires / legs are used. A twowheel design with differential geared drive was chosen for easier maneuvering and stability. The robot has the capability of moving forward, backward, turning left, turning right and stopping over level surfaces according to voice commands. It was also capable of avoiding obstacles. Conclusion The function of neural networks was explored in the field of robotics. 

materials for that particular month, the balance of stock available, etc. Methodology This project comprises of a microcontroller, dedicated digital weighing machine, a smart card reader and RTC (real time clock) as main components. Each worker is given a smart card with a unique id set for it. After filling his sack with vegetables, he comes and puts the contents on the weighing scale. After that farmers smart card is inserted into the card reader, validity of the inserted smart card is checked for by comparing with the list of allotted id’s, after which weight of the grocery, date and time of the day are stored in the memory and the smart card memory as the attributes to the farmers for his days work. At the end of the day the operator connects his device to the computer and downloads the readings taken over the day. All the Smart card ids have previously been stored in the Master memory with each employee having a unique id. After summing up the total weight corresponding to each id, the operator calculates the days’ wage of the workers. This is subsequently updated in the database so that the workers cannot be cheated.

Simple object detection and implementation of various IR sensors was made. Making robots from cheap and readily available materials was performed. The robot performed the task of learning and adapting to the type of the object in front though sometimes totally unexpected behaviors was observed. Hence a complete mobile platform for AI work to perform was built.

: SHRIDEVI INSTITUTE OF ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY, TUMKUR GUIDE : MR. AIJAZ AHAMED SHARIEF STUDENTS : AKASHDEEP MAHANTESH.P PANKAJ KUMAR SATHISH KUMAR.M

Introduction In a normal scenario, during the landing of aircraft there is only a verbal confirmation issued from the ATC (Air Traffic Controller) to the pilot. The plane after landing is then directed to a gate where it is parked and the passengers can come to the lounge to collect their baggage. Typically all the electric devices in the lounges are controlled manually and when a flight arrives they are activated and then later on they are deactivated. Also the baggage collection belts are always running. All these things lead to a lot of wastage of power and wrong happenings (considering accidents) owing to the human errors. Also, at the time of the departure of the flight care should be taken on many issues namely status of the fueling, servicing, crew boarding, catering, security and many things that needs to be check clearance, passenger boarding, preliminary checks etc. Objectives The main objective of this project is to gain knowledge and experience in developing a real time application and programming the microcontroller (AT89c51), interfacing microcontroller to other hardware. Also to know more about problems encountering in the airport automation. This project is mainly concentrated on centralized control using GSM authentication. Methodology The waterfall process model has been followed for the development of this project. This model is the one of the best process models. There are several variations of this model. This process is best only when all the requirements are known in advance.

Background

Block Diagram Description

Premature babies’ condition will be very much sensitive. So, slight changes can cause problems. Premature babies are more prone to infection. Most of the hospitals and nursing homes are manually recording the temperature, pulses & conditions of baby. This usage of manpower can lead to errors in getting appropriate readings.

The temperature sensors sense the temperatures i.e., the baby's body temperature inside and outside the incubator & give equivalent voltage values. These values are then amplified and given to ADC which gives equivalent digital O/P values to microcontroller. The Microcontroller also gets pulse count from pulse sensors. These values are sent to PC through serial communication.

For premature babies or low birth weight babies continuous diagnosis and care are required. But doctor cannot monitor NICU all the time to know the conditions of the baby. Even though nurse monitors the conditions of the baby she can not immediately report the same to the doctor. This group developed a care unit for monitoring the baby.

According to the received temperature, PC switches ON or OFF the warmer or fan by giving particular values to the microcontroller to maintain required temperature. Also depending on the value given by the PC to the microcontroller for particular bed position, the stepper motor will rotate to maintain the required bed position.

Objective of Study This project is mainly aimed at developing a Neonatal Intensive Care Unit with the following features 

PC Control And Monitoring of NICU



Neonatal Intensive Care Incubator (NICI)



Temperature Monitoring



Radiant warmers



Head Up and Head Down Option

Block Diagram

The Incubator is an insulated enclosure in which environmental conditions (temperature) can be regulated at levels optimal for growth, and metabolic reactions to give baby proper care. Incubator maintains the normal body temperature (i.e.27 degree Celsius), decreases the chance of infection, and limit water loss by maintaining the humidity level. In the Incubator when kept in the baby mode (in critical conditions), the sensors will be patched to the babies’ skin to sense the baby's body temperature to maintain the temperature of the environment and the required temperature will be set from the PC by the doctor. When kept in the Air mode (in Non-critical conditions), the sensors will be left in the air to sense the temperature inside the incubator to maintain the temperature of the environment and the required temperature will be set from the PC by the doctor. The sensors will be clamped/patched up to the thumb, toe, heal or ear lobule and temperature, humidity and heart beat rate will be displayed on the PC. Radiant warmer is an electrically warmed bed open to the air, which is used when the medical staff needs frequent access to the baby for care. In this the temperature is maintained by a controlled radiation of heat by using heat source and shade, 2 ft away from the baby.The tray/base containing baby can be lifted up /down near the side of head. Head Up option is required after feeding, to stop food enter into the trachea/respiratory system And Head Low option is required in case of Respiratory problems. Results and Analysis The pulse count is measured for 10 seconds and is converted to one minute duration.

Fig 1: Block diagram of NICU monitoring with PC st


The temperature, around 20ºC to 30ºC, is maintained inside the incubator. The temperature sensor used here gives 10mV per degree C. 133

Conclusion In the era before NICUs, infants of birth weight less than 1400 grams rarely survived. Now even Infants of 500 grams at 26 weeks have a fair chance of survival because of NICU. If NICU is automated and monitored with PC it can improve the efficiency to a large extent. In this unit, the temperature values of the incubator, baby and the room are monitored and controlled, and also the pulse rate of the baby is monitored. Also one can set the appropriate required temperature inside the incubator and change the infant care bed position through PC. Web based remote monitoring of infant incubator is possible and it will help doctor to monitor the NICU through his PC. Scope for Future Development The database can be extended to include information on medication, plans for care, and parent contact information and measure of heart beat.

: SKSVMA COLLEGE OF ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY, LAXMESHWARA GUIDE : PROF. SANTOSH BUJARI STUDENTS : PRASANNA M. G. RAJASHEKHARGOUDA B. P. VIJAYKUMAR V. G.

Introduction In inventory management, computers are used to keep account of various products and generate invoices for products sold or generate stock report or to view accounts etc. But these are software based solutions and does not really mean inventory management. i.e., they are not completely automated. For example if a product is sold the sales person or sales executive has to enter the product’s stock number or its respective code and after entering the sold quantity the invoice is generated. Now in this system there is a possibility that two units are sold and the invoice is raised only for one unit. If one person is available to manage sales and invoice generation then it becomes quite tedious to locate the materials and do the billing. The proposed system will solve these problems and hence provides an easy inventory management where the sales person will only enter the product required to be sold and the product will be automatically dispensed from a automated rack and will be transported to the counter by a convey or system and after all the items have been transported the bill will be generated automatically 134

and the dispensing bin will be closed. This is a complete inventory management and billing system which facilitates easy sales management. The system needs user input on the computer and then the requirements will be transferred to the racks microcontroller through the serial port of the PC and the controller will thus open the required bin and dispense the required quantity of materials from a carousel type dispensing unit contained in the rack. After dispensing the material is transported by a conveyor system located near the rack and which will transport the materials to the attendant at the counter. Hence every time there is no need to memorize where the particular item is kept in the store. Methodology The system is designed using ATMELs AT89C52 MCU and contains different circuitry for controlling the rack mechanism, dispensing mechanism, and the conveyor mechanism. The mechanical parts will be fabricated in acrylic fiber as it is easily available and is easier to transform. The mechanism contain stepper motor for driving, transporting and dispensing or locating purposes. The feedback from the mechanism is taken through opto-interrupters which will be located in various parts of the rack and also the conveyor mechanism. The system is based upon a bucket type chain drive mechanism in which the buckets will always be aligned to the center of gravity and hence will never be tilted which makes it fail. Later the materials stored in the buckets are dispensed by a carousel type tray with one dispensing groove through which the items are released. The conveyor system is also equipped with small trays to hold the items dispensed and a drive mechanism will help in transporting the same. All these functions are controlled by a microcontroller by suitably providing the outputs to different motors and at the same time will also take feedback from the optointerrupters for monitoring successful completion of tasks. The search and dispense input to the MCU will be supplied by the PC software and PC will communicate with the MCU via serial port. The system is not dependent on material shapes but will be limited to sizes. Advantages 

Easy inventory and sales management



Automatic billing



Employed for dispensing spare parts, medicine, bottles and also can be implemented in library.

Conclusion The Smart Rack Inventory Management system designed was successfully tested with different bins st


and materials. However, the project approach was to design a prototype that worked well and, for real time implementation it may require some hardware and software modifications to work suitably.

128. BIOMETRIC VERIFICATION BASED ELECTRONIC VOTING MACHINE COLLEGE

: STJ INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY, RANEBENNUR GUIDE : PROF. MAHESHWARAPPA B. STUDENTS : ASHALATHA M. ASHA G. S. AMUL PATIL HARISH M.

Introduction This system uses the Biometric Technology as the technique with which the security is provided. Biometric Technology is used to accurately identify and verify an individual's identity. This involves identifying his physiological and behavioral characteristics. Biometrics, in general, refers to the study of biological characteristics. With reference to computer security, it refers to authentication techniques using biological characteristics that are measurable or identifiable and unique to an individual. The most familiar biometric technology is finger print technology. Fingerprinting, as the name suggests, is the acquisition and storage of the image of the fingerprint. Fingerprint matching is by far the most successful biometric technology because of its ease of use, non-intrusiveness and reliability. Fingerprints consist of ridges and valleys fonned in complex patterns that are unique for every person and thereby provide an optimal verification method. Minutia based and pattern based matching. These two methods evaluate fingerprint images in different ways; minutia matching compares specific details within the fingerprint ridges while pattern matching compares the overall characteristics of the fingerprints. Objective To overcome proxy voting invalid votes and voting more than one time. The existing electronic voting methods are not secure enough. Biometrics solves these above issues. Every person's finger prints are unique. Therefore it makes sense to use these unique features of the person as a means for authentication. Methodology When a user places their finger on NITGEN's Fingerprint Recognition Device (FRD) for the first time, the fingerprint is scanned and a 3-D fingerprint image is captured. All fingerprints st


contain a number of unique physical characteristics called minutiae, which includes certain visible aspects of fingerprints such as ridges, ridge endings, and bifurcation (forking) of ridges. Most of the minutiae are found in the core points of fingerprints and the core points themselves are found near the center of the fingerprint on the fleshy pad. The user is enrolled, or registered, in the database after a special minutiae-based algorithm extracts key minutiae points from the live image at the time of acquisition and converts the data into a unique mathematical template comparable to a 60-digit password. This unique template is then encrypted and stored - it is important to note that no actual image of the fingerprint is stored, only the minutiae-based template. The next time a new fingerprint image for an individual is scanned by the FRD, another template is created and the two templates are compared to verify the user’s identity. Conclusion There is no security system that is completely foolproof. Every system is breakable with an appropriate amount of time and money. The techniques used to prevent the attacks help to increase the time, and cost of money. Fingerprints can be easily discovered from touched surfaces and can be copied in a small amount of time using readily available materials. All the live-ness detection mechanisms in fingetprint systems can be easily defeated using wafer thin gelatin and silicon artificial fingetprints. Biometric systems using fingetprints and face are sufficiently robust to be used as an authentication system for time and attendance and access control for low security systems. Biometric systems can be used to supplement the existing technologies rather than replacing them completely, to provide a highly secure user authentication. Future Scope In this system for verification purpose fingerprint scanner is used. In future one can implement this system by using other biometric devices such as facial pattern scanner, eye retina scanner and hand geometry scanner.

Introduction EMBEDDED systems play a vital role in automation. Embedded system is a combination of hardware and software designed to perform special functions and take decisions in different condition based on the program, which are built-in and have all the facilities to change the hardware processing power. It is used in the systems like Microwave Ovens, Washing Machines, Heaters, Remote controls etc. One of the main advantage is that by changing the contents of the program we get different accuracy outputs without changing all the hardware components.

All the functions explained above are operated in a synchronous manner for a précise amount of time. This précise amount of time is specified in the program which is embedded in the microcontroller. The Microcontroller gives signal to the interfacing card to perform some operation through relays & transistors. When interfacing card gets signals the respected relays get energized which has been connected to the respective functional units to perform its operation which is controlled through the program.

Objectives To make special purpose machine performing certain repetitive functions to work automatically by interfacing electronic components. The system must be providing wireless sensing capability. The system should have least number of electronic components for automation. The design of the control system should be simple and accurate. There should be least requirement of power for controlling. Methodology Atmel 89c52 microcontroller is used to automate various functions which is coupled with buffer to provide load current to the further device and buffer IC 74245. It is then further coupled to opto coupler to provide perfect isolation as in the practical plant the power supply will be very high. Then it is followed by a stage of magnetic based interface relay because switching of the external device with high power cannot be done by simple opto couplers. The external working devices like conveyors and coolers are then switched using those relays. Parameters for sensing are temperature control, gas sensing, fire sensing etc. As the control unit is switched ON, the furnace starts getting preheated to a known amount of time. Then the loading unit starts its operation, by picking up the raw material from the raw material bin and loading into the furnace. The raw material starts melting. It is totally melted at the required temperature, further stepper motor which is coupled to the tilting unit of a furnace start tilting, pouring the melted material into a collecting chute and goes back to its initial position. By opening the chute gate the molten material rushes into the mould which is placed on the conveyor belt. As soon as the mould gets filled the conveyor belt starts moving after some delay and the mould enters into the cooling tower. The other empty mould which is kept on the conveyor belt automatically comes to the collecting point. In the cooling tower the mould gets cooled gradually, to avoid cracks & damages (flaws) on the wheel casting. Hence the process repeats for the next wheel automatically. 136

Results and conclusions This process is very cost effective and simple technique that can be carried out and type of automation and there are many techniques for further variations and improvements. Further interfaced many other devices along with present connections without any loading on the controller. Even it can sense hundreds of parameters and even provide feedback for automatic action like the temperature increases drastically, automatically the heating unit switches off or there is smoke generation abnormally, the furnace gets switched off and the extinguisher switches on.

Introduction

Methodology

Metal parts often fail their intended use not because they fracture, but because they wear, which causes them to loose dimension and functionality. This wear may be due to metal to metal wear, abrasive wear or environmental wear. As wear is a surface or near surface phenomenon it has been realized that the wear resistance of a component can be improved by providing a surface of different composition from that of the base material. Hardfacing which is also known as hard surfacing is the application of buildup or wear resistant weld metal to a part's surface by means of welding or joining. In general hard facing is a process of depositing, by one of various welding techniques, a layer or layers of metal of specific properties on certain areas of metal parts that are exposed to wear.

The main principle steps in the investigation are:

In industries hardfacing is used in two main areas. First one is to buildup or rebuildup of worn components and the second one is in overlaying or hardsurfacing of new components to protect from wear. The main advantages of hardfacing are:

•

Determination of type and degree of wear on the base metal.

•

Estimation of area that needs to be hard faced.

•

Selection of an appropriate hard facing alloy.

•

Preparation of the surface to be hardened.

•

•

•

Application of the hardfacing alloy on the base metal. Imparting proper surface finish to the hard faced base metal component. Wear testing and analysis.

Conclusion Reduction of cost: Restoring a worm part to as new condition.

•

Prolongation of equipments life: Life increases to 3 to 1 0 times.

•

Reduction in down time: Parts lost longer and fewer shutdowns.

•

Reduction in spare parts inventory: As there is no need to keep numerous spare parts when worn parts can be rebuilt.

•

Hard faced parts can be manufactured from cheaper base metals.

•

Hard facing is normally done on cheaper base metals like stainless steels, manganese steels, castirons and caststeels, nickel base alloys and copper base alloys. For facing alloys such as cobalt, chromium, tungsten carbide, chromiummanganese, iron and iron base alloys containing various percentages of cobalt, chromium, vanadium and moly1xlenum are commonly used. All these alloys are good for extreme abrasion, severe impact and high temperature applications. Objectives The objective of this investigation is to conduct a comparative analysis of conventional hard facing electrodes. st


Limited-layer products usually are in the metal carbide families, such as chromium carbide and tungsten carbide. One can apply Martensite and Austenite products in unlimited layers unless the manufacturers specifies. The project team have limited the welding up to three layers only because increase in the number of welding layers, the brittle nature of the metal carbides lead to check-cracking and as multiple layers are applied, stress continues to build, concentrating at the root of the check-cracks and this we can see in the crack formation in the tested specimen. From the experimental results it is seen that the loss in weight goes on decreasing from the base metal and the ones which are hard faced in 1, 2 and 3 layers respectively. This is because of the reducing dilution by the base metal with the weld deposits. So with the increase in the weld passes, hardness decreases but the wear resistance of the cultivator spike increases. Thus from this study it can say that the wear resistance property of the material can be improved by hard facing. So, we come to the conclusion that the life of the agricultural equipment can be increased by hard facing and the capability of hard facing as an important source of savings. The cost of its application can be estimated.

137

Scope for future work Selection of the process and of welding position has a major influence on the total cost. The following cost elements should also be taken into account:

Thus abrasive hot air blast machining (AHABM) we consider as one of the most appropriate machining methods for hard and brittle materials. In this project, an attempt has been made to develop model of blasting process and an experimental set up of Abrasive hot air blasting machine.

Volume of materials to be deposited.

•

Objectives Process to be used.

•

Deposit efficiency (ratio of deposited material to consumable materials used).

•

•

Operating efficiency (ratio of deposit time to total time including set-up preparation, transportation, financing etc.).

Consumable cost (flux, gas and power, welding, material, labour and overhead).

•

In this regard field test of the hard faced agricultural tool can also be done to get the true picture of its application.

Introduction Recent development on special purpose componens such as semiconductors processing parts, sensors for machining technologies, hard and brittle materials such as glass, ceramics are generally difficult to machine due to their properties like extreme hardness, brittleness, corrosion resistance, etc. Using conventional machining technologies are difficult since thermal or electrical machining methods (such as chemical etching, laser and electron beam machining, EDM and electrolytic machining) cause an effective heat affected zone, while using mechanical machining methods (such as ultrasonic machining, Grinding, polishing) have limitations in productivity and accuracy.

To design and develop an Abrasive Hot Air Blasting Machine for Etching & Drilling on brittle materials like glass & ceramic. Principle The basic machining principle of Abrasive hot air blasting machining (AHABM) is the abrasives accelerated by high compressed hot air are forced through a nozzle and collide with hard and brittle work pieces at a very high velocity (80-500 m/s) and density. Since the material removal process of AHABM is performed by an integration of brittle mode machining based on micro crack propagation, there is very little heat, chipping, and crack generation in the work piece. Thus this method is very suitable for the machining of micro shapes of hard and brittle materials (such as glass, ceramics, silicon etc). Procedure Air is pressurized by a compressor. A part of the air is passed through heating chamber, where the compressed air gets heated and then lead through bypass branch and flows through the (also pressurized) storage vessel, which contains the abrasive material. The abrasives mixed with hot air combines with main flow to form abrasive hot air jet. This high-pressure jet is expanded in a nozzle made up of hard material (Sapphire/Tungsten carbide). The concentration of the abrasive particles in the jet can be adjusted by the amount of hot air passing through the bypass branch. The valve below the abrasive storage can control the flow rate.

Four-channel, four-sensor ABS: With this setup, the controller monitors each wheel individually to make sure it is achieving maximum braking force. Three-channel, three-sensor ABS: This system provides individual control of the front wheels, so they can both achieve maximum braking force. The rear wheels, however, are monitored together; they both have to start to lock up before the ABS will activate on the rear. With this system, it is possible that one of the rear wheels will lock during a stop, reducing brake effectiveness. One-channel, one-sensor ABS: This system operates the same as the rear end of a threechannel system. The rear wheels are monitored together and they both have to start to lock up before the ABS kicks in. In this system it is also possible that one of the rear wheels will lock, reducing brake effectiveness.

Introduction Biometrics is the measurement of a unique physical characteristic, is an ideal solution to the problem of digital identification. Biometrics makes it possible to identify ourselves to digital systems, and through these systems identify ourselves to others in Cyberspace. With biometrics we create a digital persona that makes our transactions and interactions in Cyberspace convenient and secure. Of all the biometrics available, including face, iris and retina scanning, voice identification, and others, the fingerprint is one of the most convenient and foolproof. Human fingerprints have been considered as a unique signature certifying one's identity. Fingerprint verification is currently the most popular technique of biometric personal identification.

The throttle valve and ABS mechanism are made to operate relative to each other by using a single servo motor. Closing and opening the throttle valve is controlled by rotation of the servo motor which is controlled by remote control. While closing the throttle valve, at certain position of the throttle valve the solenoid is made to activate, by using the ABS switch, thereby DC current is supplied through the timer circuit. Due to this the alternate breaking effect is generated. This effect remains till the sufficient level of throttle valve closing. Once the throttle valve closed down to its minimum level, the DC current is made to pass directly to the solenoid. Due to this the continuous braking effect is generated there by stopping the vehicle completely. This position of the solenoid remains till the throttle valve is opened again from its closed position to increase the speed of the vehicle. As soon as the throttle valve is opened the ABS switch disconnects timer circuit and there by power supply.

Smoke & Fire Sensor Stage This stage alarms the user in case of smoke and fire hazards. It consists DR25 as fire sensor and LDR and light source as smoke sensor. Counter & Relay Stage This stage is used to vary the parameters like speed/intensity of the devices. When the circuit is switched ON, the PC sends the reset signal so that the circuit is reset for fresh start. The time schedule of the operation of equipments is entered by the user. Based on the input, the PC switches on/off the relevant equipments through the relays. The application sends 6-bit control signals(actually 8 are available) to the circuit board, out of which first four bits are used to on/off any AC th operated loads. The 5 bit is used to reset the th circuit for the fresh operation and the 6 bit is used to control the load with varying parameters such as speed/intensity of devices. Besides all these circuitry, smoke & fire sensor modules are used to indicate any possible fire hazards. The power supply stage supplies the required working voltages to the whole circuit board. Buffers are used to provide extra current drive at the output. The buffer used is 16-pin DIL packaged IC 4050. Driver The driver stage boosts the signals first, then senses all bit status and according to that, switches the respective driver circuit.

Temperature is the most fundamental parameter. It is required in the routine control of industrial plant and in carrying out performance and acceptance trails. The conditions under which temperature has to be measured, differ so widely that no fixed rules can be laid down, all that is essential is that one should select the most appropriate method of temperature measurement for any given case and should fully under stand the sources of error and the limitations inherent in each method and precautious to be observed in the use of that particular instrument. The project work designed with two microcontroller units comes under the field of instrumentation, which is quite useful for the industrial automation.

and

Operation Initially, the process begins from temperature sensor, the output of the sensor varies according to the temperature and it is amplified, amplified signal is converted in to digital, depending up on the digital value obtained from the ADC, the controller displays the liquid temperature in degree centigrade and controls the heating element according to the liquid temperature. System is designed as programmable, so that the required temperature (from above room temperature to 800 C approximately) can be maintained constantly. The required temperature data can be entered through keyboard, and same can be displayed through LCD panel. The temperature values also displayed in two steps, i.e., actual value and set value. Depending up on the liquid level, the Thyrister gate pulse (duty cycle) is adjusted automatically. The program is prepared fro displaying the liquid level also; level is displayed in four steps, i.e. a) high b) above normal c) below normal and d) low. When the temperature is exceeded more than the set value, immediately controller energizes the fan and break supply to the heating element through relay contacts. All above features are included in the project work. Conclusion •

144

Two different types of display systems are

The idea of using this diaplay is to monitor the actual value of temperature from a distance (without going near to the instrument), because the operator must have a contimuous vigilance over the actual temperature. The set value need not to be monitored continuously, there by for displaying the set value LCD panel is used and it is connected to the output port of second microcontroller unit.

137. CLOSED LOOP POSITION CONTROL USING VIRTUAL INSTRUMENTATION COLLEGE : PDA COLLEGE OF ENGINEERING, GULBARGA GUIDE : PROF. RAJANNA GIRADDI STUDENTS : KASIM SAB KUSUM SHARMA LAXMI WALI

Introduction Virtual instrumentation is the use of customizable software and modular measurement hardware to create user-defined measurement systems, called virtual instruments. Traditional or natural instrumentation systems are made up of pre-defined hardware components, such as digital multi-meters and oscilloscopes that are completely specific to their stimulus, analysis, or measurement function. Because of their hard-coded function, these systems are more limited in their versatility than virtual instrumentation systems. The primary difference between natural instrumentation and virtual instrumentation is the software component of a virtual instrument. The software enables complex and expensive equipment to be replaced by simpler and less expensive hardware. A synthetic instrument performs a specific synthesis, analysis, or measurement function on completely generic, measurement agnostic hardware. Virtual instruments can still have measurement specific hardware and tend to emphasize modular hardware approaches that facilitate this specificity. Methodology The robotic arm movement and control is often encountered for many applications such as object picking, placing and packaging etc. Using stepper motors, which have got limited, fine and precise degree of rotational resolution beyond which the motor cannot stop / stay in that particular position backlash is observed, does all these. It requires stepper motor coil st


position decoding circuit, which is economic, user friendly and most adoptable method. The stepper motors are widely used in the industrial robotic arm control applications due to the ease of position control. In closed-loop system, the position can be maintained constant by adjusting the motor terminal voltage. Smaller DC motors operate at lower voltages, which make them easier to interface with control electronics. Major problem in applying a conventional control algorithm in a position controller is the effects of nonlinearity in a DC motor. Emerging intelligent techniques have been developed and extensively used to improve or to replace the conventional control techniques because these techniques do not require a precise model. Conclusion The present system is unidirectional control system i.e., data from PC can be transmitted to the external device / circuitry. Further the bidirectional data transfer can be done i.e., Data from the PC to external world. 1.

Data from external world into the PC can be transmitted.

Methodology The automatic ration dispenser system works with a single semiconductor type of ID card, in which each customer’s information like customer ID, name, allocated quota, whether this month’s ration is taken or not, how much is taken etc. are fed. It consists of three sections viz. ID card section; Dispenser Section and off-track section. The ID card stores the ration dispensed information and can be read or written or modify the stored data. The dispenser section executes the command sent by the PC on how much ration is to be discharged and also displays the command execution on LCD. The off-track section takes care of proper placement of containers below the dispenser cone and if the container is not properly placed, the buzzer will be alarmed. The essential components of the ID card section include ID card, card holder, buffer, indicator and a computer with software. The dispensing section includes buffer & drive unit, switches & relays, vending machine with motor, microcontroller chip and LCD module. The off-track section includes light source, sensor, light sensitive switch, buzzer and power supply unit. The PC reads the customer information from the card and based on the input command by the operator activates the vending machine to dispense the quantity of ration entered. Once the dispensing is over, it automatically stores the data into the card. The card has an erasable type of memory, to facilitate easy writing/ editing and so on. Conclusions Very useful and effective in overcoming the human errors and dependency. Also this can be used for wide range of applications. The only disadvantage is that illiterate people find it difficult to operate and need some training.

Introduction Pneumatics system work with pressurized gases that are used to transmit and control power. As the name implies pneumatic system typically use air (rather than gas) as a fluid medium because air save is safe, low cost and readily available. It is particularly safe in environments where an electrical spark could ignite fluids leaking for system components. There are several reasons for preferring pneumatics system to hydraulic system. Liquids exhibits inertia than do gases. Therefore in hydraulics system the weight of the oil is a potential problem when accelerating and decelerating actuators and when suddenly opening and closing valve. Due to Newton’s second law of motion, the force required to accelerate oil is many times greater than that required to accelerating an equal volume of air. Liquids also exhibits greater viscosity than gases, these results in large frictional pressure and power losses. Since hydraulic substances are fluids foreign to the atmosphere, they require special reservoirs and no leak system designs, pneumatic system use air that is directly exhausted into the atmosphere. Methodology Constructional features: Two solenoid switches are provided which are connected to the main inlet of the compressor and each of these solenoids are intern connected to each cylinder by two lines. The cylinder ram is connected to the crank connecting lever through the connecting bush, which is connecting the crank shaft which rotates the crank plate which is held between the axles held within the ball bearing housing. st


Operational features: When the supply of air is push of the ram of the cylinder completes the half turn of the crank plate and starts and stops at the limit switch which is preset as per the stroke required. The solenoid switch opens the pressure line connected to the cylinder to push the ram and returns back by the opening of the opposite port to push back the ram, completing the full cycle.

141. ZERO EMISSION VEHICLE

Hybridization: In conventional vehicles, the entire power is derived from the IC engine, so it is obligatory to size the enzine larger than the necessary for its cruising speed. The engine is to be designed to account for peak power requirements like acceleration. This over sizing the engine shifts the operating point from its efficient zone and this adversely affects the fuel economy and emissions. The idea of hybridization is that a part of the total power required can be replaced by an auxillary power source, generally a motor powered by pneumatics. Hence the IC engine can be designed for average load and can be operated with better fuel efficiency.

Introduction

Conclusion Torque, speed and power characteristics are the deciding factors in selection of a pneumatic engine to power a vehicle.

The motor vehicles are common in the 21st century and so widely used, humans are continuously exposed to air pollution from motor vehicles. Toxic and carcinogenic air pollutants from motor vehicles are of concern because they are known or suspected of causing cancer in humans and pose a threat even at very low levels. Hydrocarbons and nigrogen oxides from motor vehicles form smog (ground level ozone), which damages lung tissue and aggravates respiratory disease. Children and elderly are especially vulnerable to smog. Smog from motor vehicles inhibits plant growth and can cause widespread damage to crops and forests. Air pollution from motor vehicles contributes to the formation of acid rain and global warming. Advances in vehicle emission control technology are making it possible to produce new vehicles with lower emissions. Electric vehicles sometimes referred to as “Zero-emission Vehicles” are gaining attention as an option for improving air quality.

From pressure v/s speed curve it is found tha the shaft speed is controlled by varying input pressure to the pneumatic cylinders.

This machine can cut in all 3 directions i.e., x, y and z axis, in a single setting any type of cutting is possible. This machine has the feature that can move the whole setup up and down, so that if the job or cutter varies in size then it can be moved up and down. If the jobs cannot be placed on the work-table it can be cut by placing it outside the work table and by cutting it since the whole cutting set-up can be rotated around the column. A special attachment having x-y motion is placed on the work-table so that the job can be moved in either direction for faster and effective cutting.

Introduction As cutting operation is common in every industry, the conventional machines used for cutting are Band Saw, Power Hacksaw which takes more time are being used. For this, the solution is a cut-off machine which is rapid in its cutting with accuracy and also economical. The cutoff wheel is used in this machine is made of abrasive material. These cut-off machines have entered the market and have become a fast moving item as it gives high efficiency. But the only disadvangate is tht it can cut at a max of two axis. Within a boundary of particular size of work depending on its motor capacity for larger jobs, for which a machine of higher capacity is required and also the job must be confined within the work table. So keeping all this in mind this machine is designed which will overcome all these problems. This machine has 3 degrees of freedom, three axis movements and also the capacity of the machine can be varied by just changing the motor and can also cut work piece of any size. It has a semi automatic vice powered by two motors which can move in perpendicular directions to each other which is useful in continuous production processes.

Speed can be varied just by changing the pulley or motor. If high power is required motor of higher capacity can be fixed. Different cutters can be used depending on the job to be cut like wood, metal, aluminium, etc. Milling operations like end-milling and side-milling with draft can be done using this machine. The traverse movement attachment provided at the table base of the machine provides milling operation to achieve different irregular shapes. st


Cutter can be moved around the table (360º) and cutter can tilt up to 90º on one side.

Introduction Solar energy is promising renewable energy source 2 nowadays. Earth receives approximately 1400 w/m of energy, but it is not being utilised effectively because it is not always at favourable angle for collection. Aim of the project is to collect most of energy from sun throughout the day effectively by rotating the solar panel so that sunrays fall almost normally on the collector surface at all times during the day. We are making use of mechanism consisting of mechanical components to rotate the collector plate 15 degree per hour (solar hour angle). Objectives The objective of this project is to device a mechanism, which makes the solar panel to face the sun light always to improve the efficiency of the solar panel output. The tilting mechanism should work according to suns posititon at all times of the day.

Working Mechanism The solar panel is mounted on rod by using hinges, which is tilted or track according to the movement of the sun by using mechanism. The mechanism consists of number of gears, balance wheel, spring, crown and shafts. The potential energy is stored in the spring by winding the coil, this energy is used for actuating the mechanism. The potential energy of the spring is released gradually by means of escapement wheel, and the final energy obtained by the mechanism is used for tracking the panel. Results and Conclusions 1.

This mechanism rotates the collector plate 15 degree per hour (solar hour angle).

145. PRODUCTION OF BIODIESEL FROM LOW COST FEED STOCK COLLEGE

: R L JALAPPA INSTITUTE OF TECH., DODDABALLAPUR GUIDE : Dr. SOMA V CHETTY & Mr. MALLIKARJUN MATH STUDENTS : BANU PRAKASH N GANESH MANDANNA C M MANJUNATH R SREEPADHA

Introduction Raising crude oil prices internationally, is driving the oil importing countries like India, to search for alternative energy sources. Biodiesel, is one such material, that can be used as an alternate to conventional petroleum diesel, without any major changes in the engine design. Until now, the work on biodiesels is based on methyl esters of vegetable oils like sunflower, soyabeen etc., which makes its usage limited due to their high cost. Hence there is a need to establish low cost feedstock, to produce biodiesels, so that it can be made commercially more viable.

st


Objectives To produce biodiesel from low cost RWOPF (75% Restaurant Waste Oil + 25% Pig Fat), to study and compare its properties and to study the engine performance. Methodology The raw RWOPF was filtered using cotton cloth. Water was allowed to settle by way of heating followed by 24 hours settling. Then pure RWOPF was heated at 35oC and pure methanol was added to hot oil. Mixed for 5 minutes followed by addition of 95% H2SO4 and the mixture was stirred at low RPM, at 35oC. Allowed to cool. Methoxide was added and the mix was heated at 55oC, by continuous stirring. Allowed to settle and glycerin was drained-out. With this raw biodiesel was formed, which was washed with water to remove the colour and pure biodiesel was obtained. Results and Conclusions Following a two-stage pretreatment, best results were obtained with 40% methanol, 0.3% NaOH, 55oC reaction temperature and 90 minutes reaction time.

•

20-40% blending of biodiesel (B20-B40) with petro-diesel has showed cost and performance advantages.

•

It showed that B20 can be directly used in diesel engine, without any modifications.

•

The thermal efficiency and brake power decreases with increase of biodiesel content in the blend.

146. DESIGN AND FABRICATION OF ARECA DEHUSKING MACHINE COLLEGE

: SIDDAGANGA INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY, TUMKUR GUIDE : SRI. G R BHARATH SAI KUMAR STUDENTS : SUNIL B SUNIL T R SUSHIL KUMAR T N VINAY

Introduction Areca nut plays an important role in several social, religious and cultural activities of people in India. It is popularly known as betel nut or supari. India is the largest producer of Areca nut and Karnataka state contributes significantly in this line. Small and marginal farmers play a very significant role in Areca nut cultivation. Areca nut consists of husk and kernel. Husk constitutes to about 60-80% of the st


volume and weight of a fresh areca nut. Dehusking is an important activity in areca cultivation. This husk can be used as biomass or even as good manure after proper composting. Dehusking of areca nut is manual in most parts of the country, a very slow process and labour intensive. There are dehusking machines available in the field, whose performance is not very high. Also, the shape of the areca nut becomes a limiting factor in some machines. To overcome these difficulties, there is a need for dehusking machine, which can also be affordable by the farmers. Objectives To design and fabricate an economical model of areca dehusking machine. Materials The partially automated areca dehusking machine designed in the present study includes frame, cutter assembly, conveyor system, fly wheel and hopper. The frame is made of mild steel plates. The cutter assembly contains the 6” dia tungsten carbide tip cutters, ms plates of 13mm thick & 138mm dia; shaft; spring washers etc. The conveyor system contains sprockets, chain, angles welded to the chain and a ratchet pinion mechanism to drive the conveyor system. The flywheel is meant for providing the rotary motion manually and the hopper to feed the raw areca fruits into the machine. The fabricated machine was tested and the performance was compared with that of the existing areca nut peeling machines. Conclusions The new machine has simple cutters, easy to operate and semi-automatic. Also the cost is economic and the machine is compact in size. It can be operated by a single person and has increased productivity over previous machines. The disadvantages of the machine include more noise, not fully automated and can’t dehusk different sizes of areca at the same time.

147. KITCHEN WASTE BASED COMPACT BIOGAS PLANT COLLEGE

: S.J.M. INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY, CHITRADURGA GUIDE : K.C.MADHU STUDENTS : AJAY RAGHAVA.M.S MANJUNATH.C.B YASHAVANTH.S.K DILIP RAJU.S.R

Introduction The conventional Biogas plants that are currently employed use low calorific inputs like cattle dung, distillery effluent, municipal solid wastes or sewage, which have a lesser methane generation and are less 151

inefficient. Lot of waste other than cow dung or animal waste is not utilized in a proper way.

tank has gas holder and larger tank for decomposing feedstock mixture and water (slurry).

The answer to this is “KITCHEN WASTE BASED COMPACT BIOGAS PLANT”, an effective technology which uses kitchen waste (starchy or sugary feedstock) for the production of biogas. This compact biogas plant fabricated using ‘PVC’ tanks and locally available plumbing materials. 2Kg of starchy feedstock can produce about 500g of methane, and the reaction (anaerobic fermentation) is completed within 24hrs.

An inlet is provided for adding feedstock, and an overflow for removing the digested residue. The overflow mixture can be recycled into the plant. A pipe takes the bio-gas for consumption. The gas holder gradually rises as gas is produced, and sinks down again as the gas is used. Weights are placed on the top of the gas holder to increase the pressure of the gas.

The new system is far more efficient than the conventional biogas system. Objective  To produce biogas using kitchen waste which

is considered as high calorific feed which is not fully utilized.  To replace 50% of LPG use in urban areas

and also to serve as a parallel system for cow dung based biogas plant in rural areas.

Results and Conclusions After leaving the slurry (kitchen waste + water) for fermentation process upto 20 to 25 days in the air tight plant (fermenter tank), we get approximately 500g of Methane for every kg of vegetable waste input. The compact biogas plant technology readily accepts highly digestible organic materials such kitchen waste as feedstock. A single plant produces sufficient biogas to at least halve the use of LPG or kerosene for cooking in a household, as well as a small amount of solid residue which can be used as fertilizer. The compact biogas plant could be replicated wherever space is available and the temperature is sufficiently high. Communities in city residential and commercial setups can avail this technology to convert starchy waste into clean useful energy. Scope for future work

Introduction

Block Diagram The windows are fitted with lasers along with LDRs at the end of each laser beam. All LDRs are connected in series and is given as input to the timer. The output of timer is amplified using buffer and then given as an input to a driver. The output of driver is then used to generate an interrupt to microcontroller. The interrupt generated results in the rotation of a stepper motor. With help of mechanical arrangement the rotation of the stepper motor is used to press a key on a cell phone. Later by using the speed dial technique in mobile a call is made to the receiver end.

“GPRS Video Streaming” is an internet browser application developed with the main intention to view the live events taking place at a sight wherever the webcam will be focusing, through a GPRS enabled mobile. It gives the user high quality images with general packet radio service (GPRS). The communication with web will not be expensive. Anyone can access this with just a mobile from remote location. This package uses a user friendly graphical user interface (GUI) so that the people can use it with utmost ease. In this specific application, surgeon or any person can view live video of a surgical operation from remote place. Objective 

150. SCRAMBLER/UNSCRAMBLER OF VOICE COLLEGE : P.A.COLLEGE OF ENGINEERING, MANGALORE GUIDE : ABDUL JABBAR.H STUDENTS : ANEESH A.K SHAHID RAHMAN MITHUN K NABEEH O

Introduction Server Side Module: When the power is switched ON it implies that an operation has begun so the voltage sensor senses this voltage change on the line and sends a signal to the microcontroller. The microcontroller immediately digitizes the received signal and sends it to the server system through the parallel port interface . When the server senses the signal at the parallel port, a server running in the system sends an alert message to the client in the form of SMS. On receiving an acceptance from the Client, the server system switches ON the web cam placed over head the operating bed. The web cam continuously captures the real time images of the operation and sends it over the Internet and GPRS to the Client. Client Side:

Telephone Scrambler protects confidential telephone calls against intrusion. Scrambling is the most effective method for eliminating unwanted evesdropping on your confidential calls. A system consisting of two compatible telephone scramblers will permit normal conversation between caller and listener, while making the speech unintelligible to any intruder. Only persons with a compatible unscrambler will be able to understand what is spoken. Objective To design a voice scrambler and unscrambler with the aid of micro-controller and pseudo-noise sequence in order to avoid eavesdropping. Methodology

Client side module is implemented in Core JAVA and J2ME. This will allow user: 

To view the live video from remote location.



To take the snapshots or record video through web cam connecting to server through connection established in J2ME application and servlets.

Conclusion The project is designed to come to the aid of rural people who are deprived of the privileges of expert surgeons and specialist. This system finds an application in home security where the owner gets the image of the visitor even in the absence of the owner at his residence. The future enhancement of this system can transmit voice along with the video which could prove beneficial to students to view and listen to the seminars and talks that are being presented at any place.

154

Block diagram The voice signal which is coming from the ADC is scrambled with the help of the PIC micro controller by using pseudo-noise (PN) sequence. It is then transmitted through the bus. At the other end the receiver PIC will decode and the original message by using the same pseudo-noise which was used in the transmitter end. And then fed to the DAC where the

st


message is converted into analog, The decoded message is heard in the speaker.

•

Results and Conclusion In this system we not only get a confidential message transmitted but also a improved quality speech.

•

•

Secure Voice Telephone Scrambling system provides the user with a high level of communication security over both, CELLULAR and LAND-LINE telephones. The Secure Voice Telephone Scrambler can be attached quickly and easily to most cellular or land line telephone handsets.

Incorporating this circuit into the main circuitry of the main telephone system can do further improvement. This will improve the quality of service.

ISSUES AND CHALLENGES IN UBIQUITOUS COMPUTING

The emergence of ubiquitous wireless provides a rich and exciting opportunity for the current research. Researchers in this field are still "dreaming" and "creating problems" as much as they are solving problems and recording and theorizing about effects. The research in ubiquitous computing requires transcending the traditional barriers between social and technical as well as levels of analysis - individual, team, and organizational. The main challenges in ubiquitous computing originate from integrating large-scale mobility with the pervasive computing functionality. This will enable people to focus on their tasks and on interacting with other people. This far-reaching vision is still far from our reach, and will require fundamental advance (challenges) in semantic modeling, context-aware software infrastructure, application modeling an tools, and user experience validation. These challenges addresses the Task Dynamism, Device Heterogeneity and Resource Constraints, and Computing in Social Environment characteristics of ubiquitous computing. This talk presents some of the issues and challenges in ubiquitous computing research. It covers some of the design aspects of ubiquitous computing systems and also, discusses some of the ongoing ubiquitous systems projects like smart home, travel guide system, cardriving assistance system etc. The talk also highlights some of the design aspects of our in home project: "Ubiquitous Phone". 1730 Hrs – 1830 Hrs

CHALLENGES IN HELICOPTER DESIGN AND HELICOPTER PROJECTS AT HAL

Helicopters are the most versatile flying machines in existence today. This versatility gives the pilot complete access to three-dimensional space in a way that no airplane can. The amazing flexibility of helicopters means that they can fly almost anywhere. However, it also means that flying the machines is complicated. 31st Series : SPP : KSC ST : 2007-2008

177

Helicopter Technology & its development is one of the most challenging field for an engineer as it is a multi-disciplinary activity covering all most all the engineering branches. The lecture through a PowerPoint presentation briefly covers the principle of helicopter, how it flies, challenges in its design, research & development status in India and the helicopter projects undertaken in HAL. Finally an Video on the development of Advanced Light Helicopter will be presented.

TECHNICAL LECTURE - 3 By Dr. S. K. Shivakumar Director ISRO Telemetry, Tracking and Command Network (ISTRAC) Bangalore

Topic

: CHANDRAYAAN-1 MISSION

Venue

: Seminar Hall, Department of Environmental Engineering, II Floor, Adichunchanagiri Institute of Technology, Chikmagalur CHANDRAYAAN-1 MISSION

Chandrayaan-1 is the India’s maiden venture to send an unmanned probe to the Earth’s only natural satellite the Moon for photo and chemical mapping of moon’s surface. The mission envisages ISRO to launch a satellite built in India from the Indian spaceport at SriHarikota by India’s rocket PSLV-C11. The satellite launched into an Earth transfer orbit will be manoeuvred to leave the Earth’s gravity and enter the Moon’s gravity and orbit around the Moon at an altitude of 100Km above the Moon’s surface. The satellite will be tracked from several ground stations located is Asia, Australia, Europe, Americas and Africa. There are eleven experiments/instruments fitted on the satellite which will be commissioned in orbit and operated in a systematic manner taking into account various constraints of both onboard and ground systems. The science data received from Chandrayaan-1 will be received on ground and data products generated will be disseminated to scientists who have built the instruments. Indian Space Science Data Centre located at Bangalore is entrusted with the responsibility of data processing, archiving, retrieving and dissemination of science data to the principal investigators first and then to any other scientist as per the data policy. The mission, Chandrayaan-1, is planned to be operated for two years. The lecture addresses all about the mission planning, analysis and operations of Chandrayaan-1 mission. Several background technical issues which lead to India’s first mission to the Moon will also be highlighted.
