-Bedade Nandkumar V. ; Bire Mahesh B.; Patil Ketan D.; Tupe Mohan S.; Kshirsagar Dattatraya P.
flat plate collector are in rectangular panels, from about 1.7 to 2.9 sq. m, in area, and are relatively simple to construct and erest. Air or gas heating collector are employed as solar air heaters. Where an air stream is heated by the back side of the collector plate. Fins attached to the plate increase contact surface. The back side of collector is heavily insulated with mineral wool or some other material. The most favourable orientation, of a collector, for heating only is facing due south at an inclination angle to horizontal equal to the latitude +15 degree. Air has been used so far to a lesser extent as the heat transfer medium in solar collector, but it may have some advantages over water. To decrease the power required to pump the necessary volume of air through tubes, wider flow channels are used. Solar air heater has an important placed among solar heat collector. It can be used as subsystem used in many systems meant for the utilization of solar energy. Possible applications of solar air heaters are drying or curing of agriculture products, space heating for comfort, regeneration of dehumidifying agents, seasoning of timber, curing of industrial products such as plastics.

Capability of Network in Localizing Node Failures via Scalable landmark End-to-End Path Measurements
-Chokkapu Narayanarao ; P Vineela; G Poojitha; G Nikitha Sai; A R L Santosh
This Paper aims to examine the capability of localizing node failures in communication networks from binary states (normal/ failed) of end-to-end paths. Given a set of nodes of interest, uniquely localizing failures within this set requires that different observable path states associate with different node failure events. However, this condition is difficult to test on large networks due to the need to enumerate all possible node failures. Our primary goal is a set of sufficient/necessary conditions for identifying a bounded number of failures within an arbitrary node set that can be tested in polynomial time. In addition to network topology and locations of monitors, our conditions also incorporate constraints imposed by the probing mechanism used. We consider three probing mechanisms that differ according to whether measurement paths are (i) arbitrarily controllable, (ii) controllable but cycle-free, or (iii) uncontrollable (determined by the default routing protocol). Our second contribution is to quantify the capability of failure localization through the maximum number of failures (anywhere in the network) such that failures within a given node set can be uniquely localized, and the largest node set within which failures can be uniquely localized under a given bound on the total number of failures. Both measures in can be converted into functions of a per-node property, which can be computed efficiently based on the above sufficient/necessary conditions. We demonstrate how measures can be proposed for quantifying failure localization capability can be used to evaluate the impact of various parameters, including topology, number of monitors, and probing mechanisms.

Heart Rate Measurement from Fingertip
-Prof. S. K. Logesh ; M. Abinaya; B. Allen Ebirets; J. L. Deepak Chandran
Heart rate is the number of times the heart beats per minute, reflects different physiological conditions such as biological workload, stress at work and concentration on tasks, drowsiness and the active state of the autonomic nervous system. It can be measured either by the ECG or by sensing the pulse - the rhythmic expansion and contraction of an artery as blood is forced through it by the regular contractions of the heart. The pulse can be felt from those areas where the artery is close to the skin. This paper describes a measuring the heart rate through a fingertip and Arduino. It works on the principal of photophelthysmography (PPG) which is measuring the variation in blood volume in tissue using a light source and detector. While the heart is beating, it is actually pumping blood throughout the body, and that makes the blood volume inside the finger artery. This fluctuation of blood can be detected through an optical sensing mechanism placed around the fingertip. The signal can be amplified and is sent to arduino with the help of serial port communication. With the help of processing software heart rate monitoring and counting is performed. Read More...

-R Deepavani ; S Chitra
Due to rapid growth in automobile industry, use of tyre increases day by day and there is no reuse of the same to decrease the environmental pollution. The decomposition and disposing of waste tyre rubber is harmful to environment. This research reflects the reuse of waste tyre rubber into concrete after observing their properties. In that experimental work rubber aggregates replaced to the natural coarse aggregates by varying percentage of 1,3and 5 with comparison of 0% replacement. Silica fume is replaced in 5% with cement for improving the bond properties between cement paste and rubber. In evaluation, test has been carried out to determine the properties of concrete such as workability, compressive strength, flexural strength and split tensile strength. The workability of fresh concrete is observed with the help of compaction factor test vee bee test, slump cone test, flow table test. From the test of compaction factor, workability is decrease with increasing percentage of rubber. The specific gravity of rubber aggregates is 1.25. It is lower as compared to natural aggregates therefore decrease the unit weight of rubber mix concrete. Increasing rubber aggregates as partial replacement into concrete reduces compressive strength. So these can use in non-primary structural applications of medium to low strength requirements. The overall results of study shows that it is possible to use recycled rubber tyre aggregates in concrete construction as partial replacement to natural coarse aggregates. Read More...

-Md Ataur Rahman ; Pratiksha Malviya; Vikash Kumar Singh
The main objective of this research is to investigate the use of Glass Powder and other is Stone dust as partial replacement of cement and concrete production. In this research we analyze the strength of concrete made with using these waste materials one is Glass Powder and other is Stone dust. The Glass Powder is used as 20% replace by weight of cement and Stone Dust as the partial replacement of Fine Aggregate from 0%, 10%, 20%, 30% and 40%. The grade of the concrete here is M-25 grade. It has been used as a replacement of fine aggregates in many literature works but this paper presents the feasibility of the substitution of marble waste for cement to achieve economy and environment saving. Slump Test was carried out for the fresh concrete whereas Compressive Strength, Flexure Strength and Split Tensile Tests were carried for the Hardened concrete. All tests are done at 7- day, 14 - day, 28 -day, and 56 days with 0 to 40% replacement of sand at an interval of 10%. Again above tests are carried out with 20% replacement of cement by glass powder. It is observed that the glass powder improve the strength and stone dust can be used as sand. Experiment such as specific gravity test of stone dust and sand by pycnometer method, moisture content of sand and stone dust by oven drying method, normal consistency of cement, and initial setting time of cement, were performed to determine the physical property of concrete. On fresh concrete slump test was preformed to check workability of concrete and after then compressive strength was checked.

Structural and Vibrational Analysis of Model Aircraft Tapered Wing
-Alok Ranjan
The airplane wing design plays very important role to decide the main purpose for which it will be used at the later stage. The design and shape of the wings plays a important role to decide operation for which the plane will be used. Design of Airplane wings are done in such a way that it become the air borne and can produce lift, which will be greater than the weight of the plane including the weight carrying capacity of the airplane. The lift force is required to carry the plane into the air and this lift force is generated by the specific design of the wing of the airplane. Different type of forces acts on the wing which makes the airplane airborne. In order to understand this lifts the combination of Bernoulli's and Newton’s Principle helps a lot.The wing of approx every airplane have such a profile in which there is curved at the top and flat at the bottom. This type of designing is done to make the movement of air faster at the bottom which creates the difference in the pressure and results into the generation of lift force. So we can say that the design of wing plays important role to find out the limitation of the airplane. Aircraft wing analysis helps to perform structural and Vibraional analysis of an aircraft wing. Finite element method has been used to formulate the structural and free vibrational analysis on the tapered wing of prototype airplane made up of Balsa wood. ANSYS 12.1 analysis software is used as a mathematical tool in implementation of the analysis and to extract the results and to come on to certain results regarding the wing. Free vibration study represents one of the most important studies for complex structure such as wing structure. In this research, a model for tapper wing structure was created including the airfoil shape using ProE-5 modeling software. The airfoil of the tapper wing is designed using NACA airfoil software. ANSYS 12.1 were the benchmark to proceed for the detailed Structural and Vibrational analysis of the complete tapper wing. Read More...

Surface roughness plays an important role in many areas and is a factor of great importance in the evaluation of machining accuracy. The CNC machines play a major role in the modern machining industry. The selections of best combination of tool insert and work piece material is most critical step to obtain the desired surface finish. Among the number of available tool insert and work piece combination, one can be selected based on the MADM (multiple attribute decision making) methods. The work presented in this paper covers the application of various MADM methods for the best selection of tool-work piece combination for turning operation to be performed on EN-8, SS 304 and EN-19 to get better surface finish for given constant cutting parameters.

LDO Regulator using Comparator in 0.9 µm CMOS Process
-P. Rajesh ; K. Muthusamy
A low-voltage low-dropout (LDO) regulator that converts an input of 1 V to an output of 0.85–0.5 V, with 90-nm CMOS technology is proposed. A simple symmetric operational transconductance amplifier is used as the error amplifier (EA), with a current splitting technique adopted to boost the gain. This also enhances the closed-loop bandwidth of the LDO regulator. In the rail-to-rail output stage of the EA, a power noise cancellation mechanism is formed, minimizing the size of the power MOS transistor. Furthermore, a fast responding transient accelerator is designed through the reuse of parts of the EA. These advantages allow the proposed LDO regulator to operate over a wide range of operating conditions while achieving 99.94% current efficiency, a 28-mV output variation for a 0–100 mA load transient, and a power supply rejection of roughly 50 dB over 0–100 kHz. The area of the proposed LDO regulator is only 0.0041 mm2, because of the compact architecture. And the LDO regulator is fed as an input supply to the comparator. Read More...

Study of Concrete Characteristics
-J. Naresh ; Asha Sedeq
River sand is one of the important constituent in concrete. Due to lack of availability, high cost and its demand in construction sector, it is being replaced with different materials. In thermal power plants when pulverized coal is fed in to a furnace with a temperature of 1300-1500 0C, the unburnt coal that is left is known as bottom ash. Silica fume which is also known as micro silica or condensed silica fume is by-product in the manufacturing of silicon metal. An experimental study has been done in order to reduce the fine aggregate content in concrete by replacing it with the industrial waste by-product like bottom ash in various percentages i.e., (5-40%) along with addition of 5% of Silica fume by weight to cement for M30 & M40 mix to determine the compressive strength, split tensile strength, flexural strength and durability of concrete and are compared for both grades and results are tabulated and the optimum percentages are concluded.

Review of Effect of Entry Material of CNC Drilling on PCB Manufacturing Paper
-Chavan Shubham Madan ; Gawali Vishal Anil; Borse Swapnil Vitthal; Kolate Akshay Tanaji; Ghodake Aravind P.
Quality of Surface is an important factor to decide the performance of a product. Optimization of the metal drilling requires generation of minimum amount of burrs and uniform appearance of the drilled holes. The burr is a plastically deformed material, generated during drilling & it is unnecessary output and often lowers the surface quality and reduces the product life and acceptability of the product. To improve the productivity of the drilling process, PCB are generally stacked in several layers and drilled simultaneously. In this process, the misalignment of the drilled holes on the top and bottom layers occurs, and this consequently degrades the overall product quality. The outcomes uncovered conceivable decrease of burr event on both the section and leave side of the sheet, requiring no extra deburring process. The demand on the uniform appearance of drilled holes was fulfilled as well as high productivity achieved. Such optimized process results in a noticeable production cost reduction. The burr, which is a plastically deformed material, generated during drilling is unnecessary output and often lowers the surface quality, reduces the product life and acceptability of the product.

-S. Sirisha ; A. Chandana Jyothi; A. Priya Darshini; P. Silus
The production of OPC is responsible for about 7% of the world’s CO2 emission, a major contributor to the green house effect which is implicated in global warming and climatic changes, lead to the search for more environmentally viable alternative to cement. One of those alternative materials is alkali activated slag (AAS). Where alkali activated slag is used not as partial replacement to cement but as a sole binder in the production of concrete. The overall aim of the study was to investigate the potential of alkali activated slag as the sole binder in producing concrete. The performance of alkali-activated slag concrete with sodium silicate, sodium hydroxide, sodium carbonate, potassium hydroxide as activator are used at 4% Na2O & K2O (by weight of slag) and 4% of hydrated lime by weight of slag if used as retarder. The scope of the work covered four mixes: a normal OPC mix, four AAS slag mixes of the same binder content and the same water binder ratio, the coarse aggregates are replaced by the 10% recycled aggregates. The fresh concrete properties studied were setting time and workability in terms of slump. The Engineering properties studied were compressive, split tensile strength and flexure strength measured in 1, 3, 7, 14, 28, 56 and 90days. The AAS concrete with different activators investigated was found to achieve very good workability which was higher or comparable with that of OPC. The addition of hydrated lime to AAS mix was resulted in decrease in workability. Water-glass (Na2SiO3), NaOH activated slag mixes sets very quickly. AAS concrete is much more sensitive to curing where if there is no addition of retarder (hydrated lime) to the mix. Among AAS mix, NaOH was the best; KOH was the second; Na2SiO3 was third; and Na2CO3 was the fourth in terms of compressive strength. Na2SiO3was best; KOH was the second; Na2CO3 was third; and NaOH was the fourth in terms of split tensile strength. KOH was the best; NaOH was the second; Na2CO3 was third; Na2SiO3 was fourth in terms of flexure strength. Read More...

QR Code and Barcode Based Billing System for Shops using Android Smartphone
-Suraj Yadav ; Sahil Yadav; Suyrakant Singh; Naman Singh
The objective of this paper is to propose a real time capturing system for consumer using Quick Response (QR) code in an Android smart phone. In recent years, extensive research has been carried out on vision-based automatic identification technology that recognizes image codes using smart phones to provide various services that can recognize the authenticity of any product. Using Multiplexing and De-multiplexing process encode and decode the information from single QR code with special symbols and split the data back to their QR Code pattern where these QR Code pattern can be read by Android Smartphone’s. Standard image codes like one-dimensional barcodes and two-dimensional codes with black and white patterns identifies a product for its value and basic features but does not authenticate it, moreover not every product that is identified, is used for authenticating manufacturer's warranty. So QR code verifies products by capturing it through the smart phone, then decodes and sends it to the server for authentication. The customer forwards the selected product list to the server that enables the consumer to decide based on the products authenticity. The final payment can be done by both direct pay and Paypal way of money transaction. It will proceed further for the payment of bill only if the customer enters the security code. The security code mechanism was introduced in order to recover the message and provide authenticity ensuring the right one is using the application. Read More...
