Concrete is a building material which is broadly utilized as a part of everywhere throughout the world. By and large concrete is a blend of bond, total and water. Concrete is expensive material furthermore it free CO2 and different harmful gasses which influence nature. Presently days specialists are endeavoring to downsize the employments of concrete by supplanting it incompletely by waste material like fly slag, smaller scale silica, glass powder, Rice husk, wheat straw and so on. The essential point of this paper is to look at the issue of small scale silica when it is added to concrete. At the point when silica is supplanted by concrete up to 20%, it can modify its qualities. Fields show that adding miniaturized scale silica expand imperviousness to scraped area, fortification consumption, sulfate and substance. Compressive quality, consistency and mechanical exhibitions are expanded while porousness and warmth lessened, it likewise causes delays in checking time. Small scale silica additionally helps in getting elite concrete, waterproof concrete and shotcrete. It groups high pliable flexural quality with a high modulus of versatility, improved quality, higher bond quality and expanded stamina. In this paper small scale silica is added to concrete up to 20% of bond.

The blade servers were designed to provide economies of scale for larger systems in their adoption cycle of blade servers. But only the largest IT organizations were able to attain gain of the capital and operating cost efficiencies to warrant the investment. As the third- and fourth-generation products are very common in today’s world. There have to be a choice made between deploying rack-optimized servers and blade servers, and the cost analyses favour blade servers over a wider range of deployment sizes and configurations. Both the capital expenses and facilities expenses can prove a bit lower for the blade deployments with as few as three servers; and the advantage of blade is clear in deployments of over eight servers. The reason for increase in blade server adoption is the cost saving, which also encourages the technology vendors to create product portfolios that meet the needs of small, midsize, and large organizations.

Renewable energy resources have become one of the alternatives to the ever increasing energy demand. But the low voltage output of the renewable resources like wind, solar, hydro etc. must be boosted up to other voltage levels for various residential or industrial applications. DC-DC converters are used to convert the unregulated output voltage of the solar cells to regulated voltages. Most of the converter suffers from high ripple output voltages. This paper presents a modified boost converter which reduces the output ripple voltage thereby giving a constant DC output voltage. A closed loop voltage control with PI controller is used to maintain constant output voltage with variation in load. The converter topology is designed and simulated with MATLAB/Simulink to validate its theoretical result. ARDUINO platform is used to generate pulses for hardware implementation. The result obtained through the simulation is verified with the hardware.

Aesthetics in the world of art and photography refers to the study of beauty and taste. However, determining aesthetic qualities of any visual representation of art is a highly subjective task. Hence, there is no unanimously agreed standard for measuring aesthetic value. In spite of the lack of formed rules, certain features in photographic images are believed, by many, to please humans more than others. Image processing involves taking image as an input and performing operations on it. The main aim of our system is to tell if certain image is generically appealing or not based on the color aesthetics of the image. In this system we take an image from a training data set of images, extract color features of that image and based on the color combination and contrast ratio between the foreground and background of the image, classify the image as appealing or not. We also took a few surveys for understanding the color combinations which are more preferred by humans and also the variation in the color preferences according to gender along with emotions which were evoked. The survey results were then used as guideline in designing the classifier rules. This paper will depict the work done on this system in brief.
