Design a Hybrid Model of Anti-Lock Braking System with Robust Slip Control
-Vivek Kumar ; Shri Nishant Tripathi
The Anti-lock braking system (ABS) is an active safety device in road vehicles, which during hard braking maximizes the braking force between the tyres and the road irrespective of the road conditions. This is accomplished by regulating the wheel slip around its optimum value. Due to the high non-linearity of the tyres and road interaction, and uncertainties from vehicle dynamics, a standard PID controller will not suffice. This paper therefore proposes a non-linear control design using input-output feedback linearization approach. To enhance the robustness of the non-linear controller, an integral feedback method was employed. The stability of the controller is analyzed in the Lyapunov sense. To demonstrate the robustness of the proposed controller, simulations were conducted on two different road conditions. The results from the proposed method exhibited a more superior performance and reduced the chattering effect on the braking torque compared to the performance of the standard feedback linearization method.

To Overcome the Network Performance by Cross-Layer Designing in MANET
-Rahul ; Neha Pahwa
Traditional Wired network uses protocol architectures follow the principle of stack layered implemented by ISO/OSI model. ISO/OSI model was developed to support all the standardization of the network architecture using layered model. Initially wireless network also adopts the traditional stack layered architecture from the wired networks. Wireless network performance can be degraded due to the adaptation of the protocols from layered architecture and Transmission control protocol/ Internet Protocol (TCP/IP), which was designed originally for wired network. However, lack of communication between layers limits the performance of such architectures. In this paper a cross layer design is adopted in wireless MANET in order to overcome the network performance problems. Since nowadays wireless networks are becoming very popular technology. In the Mobile Adhoc network, cross-layer design allows the protocol that belong to different layers which cooperate in sharing network-status information while still maintaining the layers separation at the design level. Cross-layer design has been proposed to maintain the functionalities associated to the original layers but to allow communication of protocols crossing different layers. Read More...

Fabrication of Stir Casting Setup for Metal Matrix Composite
-Ramesh B T ; Vinayak Koppad; Hemanth Raju T
In Metal matrix composites, the Aluminium Matrix Composites are gaining increasing attention for applications in aerospace, defence and automobile industries. The purpose of the current Paper is therefore aimed at highlighting the focus of the current research scenario, in the field aluminium based hybrid composites, to explore the materials for automotive and aerospace applications; this is achieved with the help of stir casting technique. Stir casting is one of the novel methods to produce metal matrix composites with more uniform distribution of matrix and reinforcement constituents. This approach involves mechanical mixing of the reinforcement particulates/particles into a molten metal bath. A crucible is heated to malt aluminum metal, with a motor and blades is placed in the crucible that helps to get uniform molten metal. The reinforcement is poured into the crucible above the melt surface and at a controlled rate, to ensure a smooth and continuous feed. As the blades rotate at moderate speeds, it generates a uniform mixing of the reinforcement particles into the melts to produce homogenous composites.

A Review on Pulsed TIG Welding
-Asif Ahmad ; S. Alam
In the fabrication of equipment’s, machinery etc. made from stainless steels such as pipe, automotive exhaust gas system, chemical industrial equipment, etc., arc welding using shielding gas is often used. Higher quality welds with fewer defects like porosity, and cracking and material properties closer to the parent metal are most required in the present manufacturing processes. TIG pulse welding is one of the generally applied welding methods. Pulsed TIG welding achieves a good control of heat input. Heat affected zone (HAZ) decreases the strength of the weld and hence Pulsed TIG welding process is carried out to reduce the HAZ. The current from DC power source is supplied in pulses having a predetermined duration for the peak and low values. When the current is maintained at high on-position, welding takes place with the required penetration. Distortion is the major problem in welding of thin sections. This distortion is controlled in pulsed TIG process. The metallurgical advantages of pulsed TIG welding are grain refinement on fusion zone, the reduced width of HAZ, less distortion, control of segregation, reduced hot sensitivity and residual stresses. It was observed that pulsed TIG welding produces finer grain structure of weld metal than conventional TIG welding (without arc pulsation). In fact, excess heat reduces the material's ability to resist corrosion. In the pulsed-current mode, the welding current rapidly alternates between two levels. The higher current state is known as the pulse current, while the lower current level is called as background current. During the period of the pulse current, the weld area is heated and fusion occurs. Upon dropping to the background current, the weld area is allowed to cool and solidifies. Pulsed current TIG welding has a number of advantages including lower heat input and consequently reduces distortion and warpage in thin workpieces. In addition, it allows for greater control of the weld pool and can increase weld penetration, welding speed, and quality. Some researchers have done work to understand the effect of various welding parameter such as welding speed, welding current, gas flow and heat input etc. that are influences on responsive output parameters such as tensile strength, a hardness of welding by using optimization philosophy. Minitab 18 software is used to find optimum parameter. Read More...

Efficiency and Awareness Active Duplicate Disclosure in Wireless Sensor Networks
-Fareeda Begum ; Shivleela Patil
Wireless sensors have been generally utilized for discrete application with scope ranging from various regions like observation of telemedicine and object following, and so forth. For practical sensor arrangement, the sensors are susceptible to specific attacks as they are not build with tamperproof scheme and are difficult to tracked and secured. Thusly, the structure criteria of clone area traditions for sensor frameworks couldn't simply guarantee the superfluous execution of clone distinguishing proof potential results yet additionally consider the imperativeness and memory execution of sensors. Sealed gadgets and conveyed in places without checking and security, which makes them inclined to clone attacks. A vindictive customer may moreover trade off a couple of sensors and gather their private information. At that point, it might recreate the sensors and introduce clones in a wireless sensor network (WSN) to discharge a determination of attacks, which is alluded to as clone attack. A vitality effective area mindful clone identification convention in intensely masterminded WSNs in presented, that helps in guarantying fruitful clone attack location and deals with an acceptable system lifetime. Proposed convention can achieve cent percent clone detection probabilities with trustful witnesses or sources. In addition, in most existing clone recognition conventions with irregular witness choice framework, the required buffer storage of sensors is generally reliant on the hub volume. The scheme here required cradle storage of sensors is free of jump length of the system range. Proposed convention can accomplish long system lifetime by adequately appropriating the traffic overhead over the system. Read More...

Energy-Efficient and Cost-Aware Secure Routing Protocol for Wireless Sensor Networks
-Khatija Noor ; Khatija Noor; Sujata. V. Mallapur
Wireless sensor network of globally distributed autonomous sensors to monitor physical or environmental conditions such as temperature, noise, pressure etc. and to cooperatively pass their data through the network to a main location. Lifetime optimization and security are two conflicting design issues for multi-hop wireless sensor networks (WSNs) with non-replenish able energy resources. Propose a secure and efficient Cost-Aware Secure Routing (CASER) protocol to address these two conflicting issues through two adjustable parameters: energy balance control (EBC) and probabilistic based random walking. Then the energy consumption is severely disproportional to the uniform energy deployment for the given network topology, which greatly reduces the lifetime of the sensor networks. An efficient non-uniform energy deployment strategy to optimize the lifetime and message delivery ratio under the same energy resource and security requirement. We also provide a quantitative security analysis on the proposed routing protocol. Our theoretical analysis and OPNET simulation results demonstrate that the proposed CASER protocol can provide an excellent tradeoff between routing efficiency and energy balance, and can significantly extend the lifetime of the sensor networks in all scenarios. For the non-uniform energy deployment, our analysis shows that we can increase the lifetime and the total number of messages that can be delivered by more than four times under the same assumption. We also demonstrate that the proposed CASER protocol can achieve a high message delivery ratio while preventing routing trace back attacks. Read More...

-Prof. Jayesh Patel ; Patel Parth; Patel Hirenkumar; Rupareliya Divyesh; Vikram Panchal
This paper is presenting the study of road power generation through the speed breaker mechanism. Energy is the primary need for survival of all organisms in the world. But the fast moving world, the usage of electricity is increasing past few years. Therefore, to overcome these situations we need to improve techniques of optimize conventional sources for conservation of energy. In this project includes how to utilize the energy while vehicles passing through speed breaker. Much of energy is produced while vehicles pass over it. There are four mechanisms to produce electricity through speed breakers: Rack & Pinion mechanism, Crank Shaft mechanism, Roller mechanism and Spring Coil mechanism. The kinetic energy of the moving vehicles can be converted into mechanical energy of the spring through rack and pinion mechanism. This mechanical energy will be converted to electrical energy using generator which will be saved with the use of a battery. The energy we save during the day can be used in the night time for lighting street lights. Therefore, by using this arrangement we can save much of energy which can be used in future demands.

Work at Height- Safe Work Practices for Preventing Construction Falls
-Rajaji V K
construction industry has a disproportionately large number of injuries and fatalities in comparison to other industrial sectors. The Qatar Construction Specification specify the standards that need to be followed in order to reduce the number of work site injuries and fatalities occurring as a result of falls from scaffolds, ladders, leading edges, floor openings, roof openings, sky-lights and excavations as well as structural erections- concrete and steel. The fact that in spite of such rules and regulations being in place, there are unusually high number of injuries, indicates that there is still a need to study and improvise the solutions to prevent such falls on a construction site. The more important fact is that most falls are preventable if proper safety precautions are taken and fall prevention techniques implemented. Most construction companies now have specific safety initiatives, injury-free work-place programs in place, but the threat of falls and accidents still continues to be a concern to the construction industry. This study will attempt to study methods to improve fall prevention on construction sites and shall also attempt to examine the opportunities and impacts of designing work at height during the design phase of projects and of addressing the requirements of the falls prevention for a project during the procurement process.

-Mohammed Azeemuddin ; Prof B. G. Mahendra
Land use land cover (LULC) and waste land has became a major component to handle natural resources and managing changes occurring in the environment which is due to expansion of the rural/urban area, critical losses of agriculture land, vegetation land and water bodies. Followed by this the rural sprawl created an environmental issue. For example: Decreased air quality and increase in the temperature etc. Land use and land cover is driven by human actions and also drives changes that limit availability of products and services for human and animals and it can damage/weaken ecological balance also. Land use and land cover is an important component in understanding various interactions of the human activities with the environment and thus it is necessary simulate changes.
