An Experimental Comparative Study between Water Based Acrylic Polymer Curing compound and Conventional Curing Procedure for High Strength Concrete.
-Mr.Mallik K. ; Mr. Sachin M. Kulkarni
Concrete is an essential building material which is widely used in construction industry all over the world due to its compressive strength. Curing of concrete plays a vital role in durability and other performance necessities. Improper curing can affect the performance and durability easily. Conditions where scarcity of water prevails, and accessibility of structure for external curing becomes difficult, it becomes essential to seek for alternative means of curing. This work thrust for an alternative procedure of curing by using external curing compound. Concrete curing compound consist essentially of waxes, natural and synthetic resins, and solvents of high volatility at atmospheric temperatures. The compound forms a moisture retentive film shortly after being applied on fresh concrete surface. White or gray pigments are often incorporated to provide heat reflection and to make the compound visible on the structure for inspection. The research work consist of i) Development of high strength concrete using OPC53 grade cement and locally available coarse aggregate and fine aggregate and using super plasticizer as admixture. ii) Casting of concrete samples and adopting different curing methods as wet pond curing, in air dry curing, alternative dry and wet curing and using curing compound. iii) Casted samples were tested for flexural strength, shear strength iv) Results of tested samples were tabulate and discussed over the result of achieving the strength in 3, 7, 28 days by different curing methods.

Optimized Routing in Wireless Sensor Network for IoT
-Megha Dhingra ; Er. Ankush Gupta
Wireless networks of battery-powered sensors with an event-driven wake-up function are becoming an increasingly important application area for Internet of Things (IoT).This paper analyzes the physical relation between the power consumption and the link utilization of wireless video sensor networks. We propose a multi-channel allocation and routing method for wireless multi-hop networks where each node generates event-driven video sensor data. Routing and channel allocation put a large impact on the battery life time of IoT sensors. We realistically analyze the power consumption model for a wireless link in terms of the distance and its utilization ratio. We then present an optimization formula of utilization-aware channel allocation and routing that minimizes the overall power consumption while transferring all the require data. We developed an efficient optimisation algorithm that accurately approximates the formula. A network simulator has been developed, which show that the proposed method can reduce the overall power consumption. Read More...

Traffic De-Correlation Methods for Countering a World Eavesdropper in Wireless Sensor Networks
-Thodeti Spandhana
We address the issue of keeping the induction of relevant data in occasion driven remote sensor systems (WSNs). The issue is considered under a worldwide busybody who investigates low-level RF transmission qualities, for example, the number of transmitted parcels, between bundle times, and movement directionality, to deduce occasion area, its event time, and the sink area. We devise a general activity examination technique for deducing relevant data by connecting transmission times with listening in areas. Our investigation demonstrates that most existing countermeasures either neglect to give satisfactory insurance, or bring about high correspondence and defer overheads. To moderate the effect of spying, we propose asset productive movement standardization plans. In contrast with the cutting edge, our strategies diminish the correspondence overhead by over half, and the end-to end delay by over 30%. To do as such, we segment the WSN to least associated ruling sets that work in a round-robin mold. This enables us to lessen the quantity of movement sources dynamic at a given time, while giving steering ways to any hub in the WSN. We additionally diminish bundle delay by freely planning parcel transferring, without uncovering the movement directionality. Read More...

Realization of Variable Digital Filter for Software Defined Radio Channelizers
-Geeta B. Bramhapurikar ; Prof. Nilesh Bodne
Multiple communication channel support in Radio Frequency (RF) transmission, such as that in a Software Defined Radio (SDR) warrants the use of channelizers to extract required channels from the received RF frequency band and to perform follow-on baseband processing. The objective of our project is to Design a SDR using Xilinx system generator and describe the process of channelization as it applies to low power and high-efficiency applications in wireless and Satellite Communications (SATCOM) domains. Smaller bandwidths and changing requirements of bandwidth calls for a programmable channel selection mechanism whereby channels and the resulting bandwidth can be selected based on target application, which is the primary principle in the Software Defined Radio based systems [3]. SDR is a radio in which some or the entire physical layer functions are software defined. Traditional hardware based radio devices have limited cross-functionality and they are modified only through a physical intervention. This results in higher production costs and minimal flexibility in supporting multiple waveform standards this problem is solved by SDR’s. In this project, a software defined radio is designed using Xilinx System Generator. System Generator’s FIR, FFT, FIFO and FDA Tool blocks are used. The FDA Tool block is used to define the filter order and coefficients, and the SDR block is used for the MATLAB/Simulink simulation and design implementation in FPGA using Xilinx ISE Design Suite 14.1.

ATM Vault Authentication and Security using Finger Print Biometric with GSM Technology
-Reena Haribhau Deshmukh ; R. G. Dabhade
Security and Authentication of individuals is necessary for our daily lives. Access control systems restrict access to a secured premise or other secured devices (like a safe) only to authorized persons. In this design a biometric (fingerprint based) ATM vault was developed with GSM technology. There are other methods of verifying authentication through password, RFID but this method is most efficient and reliable. To provide perfect security to the bank lockers and to make the work easier, this project is taking help of two different technologies viz. EMBEDDED SYSTEMS and BIOMETRICS. Unauthorized access is prohibited by designing a system that stores the fingerprints of one or more authorized users. Fingerprint is sensed by sensor and is validated for authentication. If the fingerprint matches, the door will be opened automatically otherwise the buzzer will be activated so that the people near the surroundings will get an alert. A survey showed that there is no proper security in withdrawing cash from ATM’s. There are no proper authentication methods applied for security during ATM transactions. In this paper, security approaches of ATM have been focused on, and have been improved using biometric based authentication technique i.e. Fingerprint recognition. One of the main motive of biometric ATM machine is to prevent unauthorized access means everyone cannot access the ATM means user should present then the access the ATM otherwise not access the Account. The use of biometric in ATM machine for the purpose of security. Biometrics technology is rapidly progressing and offers attractive opportunities. In recent years, biometric authentication has grown in popularity as a means of personal identification in ATM authentication systems. The prominent biometric methods that may be used for authentication include fingerprint, palm print, handprint, face recognition, speech recognition, dental and eye biometrics. In this paper, a microcontroller based prototype of ATM cashbox access system using fingerprint sensor module is implemented. An 8-bit PIC PIC18F4520 microcontroller developed by Microchip Technology is used in the system. The necessary software is written in Embedded C and the system are tested. Read More...

-Sunil Sungar ; Manjula. B
Late remote sensor systems (WS-Ns) are ending up increasingly multifaceted with the emerging system scale and the dynamic idea of remote communications. Many approximation and analytic methodologies rely upon per-bundle guiding ways for careful and fine grained examination of the intricate system practices. Here propose i-Path, a novel way induction way to deal with recreating the per-bundle steering ways in unique and vast scale systems. The essential thought of i-path is to abuse high way similitude to iteratively induce long ways from short ones. i-path begins with an fundamental known arrangement of ways and achieves way surmising iteratively. I-Path includes a original plan of a insubstantial hash work for chequered of the deduced ways. Keeping in mind the end goal to additionally enhance the surmising capacity and in addition the execution productivity, i-path incorporates a quick bootstrapping calculation to recreate the fundamental preparation of ways. We likewise actualize i-path and assess its execution utilizing follows from substantial scale WS-N organizations and in addition broad reenactments. Results demonstrate that i-path accomplishes significantly higher reproduction proportions under various system settings contrasted with other cutting edge approaches. Read More...

Secured Information Transaction using RSA Steganography
-Prabakaran S
Steganography is an art of hiding the secret message in a cover object not including departure a remarkable track on the original message. It is used to increase the security of message sent over the internet. In contrast to cryptography, it is not used to scramble the data but it is used to conceal the data in digital media. This research paper will deal with text and video steganography, cryptography, hash-LSB and a encryption algorithm. At the end, there will be a discussion about the goal of this paper and what types of techniques worked on text and video steganography. A proposed technique for text and video steganography say Hash-LSB with the RSA algorithm is implemented to provide more secure data and data hiding method. This technique uses a hashing function to generate a mask model for the data bits in the LSB of RGB pixel values of the cover text and video. This technique ensures that the message is encrypted before hiding in a cover text and video frame. If in any case the cipher text has revealed the cover video frames, the intermediate person other than the receiver cannot access the message as it is in encrypted form. So Hash- LSB technique is more secure and responsible to transfer the important data on any unsecure channel. The encryption algorithm which is named as RSA (Rivest, Shamir & Adelman) algorithm, increase the security of valuable or precious data. Read More...

Virtual Machines Overloaded in Cloud Computing using Fuzzy Logic Algorithm
-G. Sukanya ; Dr. M Chidambaram
In both static and dynamic provisioning, Virtual Machine sizing is perhaps the most vital step. Typically, efficient provisioning is achieved by two operations: (1) static resource provisioning. VMs are created with specified size and then consolidated onto a set of physical servers. The Virtual Machine capacity does not change; and (2) dynamic resource provisioning. The objective of Virtual Machine sizing is to ensure that Virtual Machine capacity is commensurate with the workload. While over-provisioning wastes costly resources, under-provisioning degrades application performance and may lose customers. We introduce the concept of “fuzzy assessment†s to measure the uneven utilization of a server. By analyzing risk assessment, we can improve the overall utilization servers in the face of multidimensional resource constraints. Read More...

Application-Level & Agent Based Simulation for Network Security using NeSSi2
-Surbhi Khare ; Ritesh Shrivastav
NeSSi (Network Security Simulator) is a novel network simulation tool which incorporates a variety of features relevant to network security distinguishing it from general-purpose network simulators. We present NeSSi2, the Network Security Simulator, a simulation environment that is based on the service-centric agent platform JIAC. It focuses on network security-related scenarios such as attack analysis and evaluation of counter-measures. We introduce the main NeSSi2 concepts and discuss the motivation for realizing them with agent technology. Then, we present the individual components and examples where NeSSi2 has been successfully applied. Network or security functionality, but although they provide detailed results, experiments are time consuming and remain complex to setup and maintain. Another approach is to represent the system with the aid of mathematical models and find analytical answers, i.e. logical and quantitative relationships between the entities. Typically, such models also become very complex, in particular for a concurrent system such as IDS. Therefore, simulations are useful for the evaluation of distributed systems and protocols. Depending on the evaluation metrics, the simulations allow the abstraction from irrelevant properties. In addition, hazard scenarios, called "what-if scenarios", can be constructed which may not be possible in real-world test environments. Read More...

Modeling and CFD Simulation of Exhaust Gas Recirculation Cooler for Diesel Engine and Compare It with Triangular and Square Fin Tube EGR
-Mr. Ibrahim Hussain Shah ; Akhilesh Choudhary
The exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) is a process for minimizing the nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions from the exhaust of the IC engine. Our main aim is to develop a design of EGR Cooler for BS IV diesel engine which reduces the NOx percentage in the exhaust gas. EGR recirculation about small part of the exhaust gases back into the inlet of the cylinder where it merges with the fresh air and due to which it reduces the part of Oxygen. It reduces the Oxygen concentration due to chemical reaction and dilutes the intake charge, due to which it also reduces the temperature inside the cylinder which will simultaneously reduce the NOx percentage due to reducing the formation of NOx.. When we recycle about 20% of exhaust gas will reduce NOx emission about 87%. Therefore we make three different models A, B, C. Model-A is simple shell and tube type, which has simple tube. In model-B we replaced simple tubes by externally triangular finned type circular tube because it increases the heat transfer rate and therefore we get increased effectiveness of the cooler. And in the Model- C, we replace the plane tube in same model by square finned tube. Now we compare all the three models by their effectiveness, and on the basis of comparison suggest using most effective Model among them. Mainly the comparisons were made between shell & finned tube EGR cooler and on the basis of comparison we prefer the model which has high effectiveness than the other. Read More...

Effect of Coating on Machining Performance of Hard Surfaces
-Bhawesh Kumar
Machining of the material in the hardened state is one of the challenging tasks. But this is possible due to development or innovation in the area of cutting tools. Machining of the material in the hardened state gives good surface finish as given by the grinding at the minimum cost and time. Many researchers have analysed the effect of machining parameters on the tool wear, machining force and surface roughness as well as compared the coated and the uncoated tool life to suggest which tool is preferable. The aim of this work is to analyse the effect of titanium based coatings on the tool wear, surface roughness, machining forces, temperature of the cutting tool and the type of chip formation. In this work three type of coatings - TiN,TiCN and TiAlN are used on the ceramic inserts for machining (turning) of AISI A2 tool steel and further an ANOVA was carried out to investigate statistical significance among all cutting parameters. It shows that speed has been found to be the most dominant factor in the tool wear, tool temperature and machining force but feed has been found to be the most dominant factor in for surface roughness. Grey relation analysis is used to optimise cutting condition. The result indicated that, the TiAlN coating tool has less tool wear followed by TiCN and TiN but in terms of roughness, TiN showed better result, except dimension accuracy. Due to higher tool wear, TiN coated tool gives relatively lower dimensional accuracy. Read More...

-Sourabh Maity ; Vijay Karma
Transmission error is major factor which is responsible for the noise and vibrations in the gear system. Many authors studied the correlation between Transmission Error (TE) and Tip Relief Profile Modification, since it is a strong tool to modify TE by taking other parameters of the gear fixed. But there is less availability in literature for the work on the correlation between effect of gear parameters, pitch error and tip relief of linear profile modification by the help of interference volume method. In this present work, tip relief of linear profile modification of involute spur gear with consideration of pitch error is done.

Experimental Studies on Fresh Properties of Self-Compacting Geopolymer Concrete using Waste Foundry Sand
-Raj L. Shah ; Ankit S. Chakraborty; Prayas B. Variya; Raj L. Shah; Prof. Nikunj R. Patel
To resolve the problem of carbon emission and to reduce the Labour cost in construction of concrete structures an innovative sustainable concreting technique named “self-compacting geopolymer concrete†is developed. The benefit of using this concreting technique is that the Labour cost reduces due to its self compactability and it also solves the problem of disposal of waste foundry sand. The present investigation is mainly focused on the fresh properties of self-compacting geopolymer concrete with varying molarity of NaOH and using waste foundry sand as replacement of ordinary sand to make this a low-cost concreting technique. Test were performed such as slump flow, T50cm, V-funnel and L-box were conducted to assess the fresh properties. Studies reveals that increasing the molarity of NaOH decreases the fresh properties but increased the compressive strength of SCGC. Read More...

The Design and Simulation of Split Radix FFT Processor using Multi-Bit FlipFlop for Power Reduction
-Bitta Balaji ; P. Syamala Devi
Fast Fourier transform (FFT) is one of the most important and fundamental algorithm in digital signal processing area. Split radix fast Fourier transform (SRFFT) algorithm requires the least number of multiplications and additions among all the known FFT algorithms, which contribute to overall system power consumption. In the design of such processors, modified radix-2 Shared memory architecture can be used instead of Pipelined FFT architecture. In contrast Shared memory based architecture requires least amount of hardware resources at the expense slower throughput. To implement this Shared memory architecture, Multi-Bit FlipFlop (MBFF) and Superfast low power SRAM (SFLP SRAM) cell are required. The SRFFT can be computed by using a modified radix-2 butterfly unit. The butterfly unit exploits the multiplier gating technique to save dynamic power. In addition, two address generation algorithm are developed for both real and imaginary parts of twiddle factors. In simulation results the power is measured by T-Spice using Tanner tool. Hence the proposed architecture will save more power when it comes to larger points of FFT. Read More...

Structural Investigations on Cost Effective Roofing Technology
-B. Sai Kumar ; N. G. Bhagavan; J. Guru Jawahar
Development of cost effective roofing system built with precast ferrocement elements is discussed. This roofing technology is exclusively designed for innovative / affordable / rapid-built / disaster-resistant SERCular Housing Technology developed by CSIR-SERC. This type of rural house is built of a 2-roomed unit, proposed for Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana – Garmin (PMAY-G), consisting of each room as a standard 4-meter diameter circular module. For this type of housing, the proposed roofing system is designed to cover over the 4-m. diameter (spanning across the circular walls), with the precast rectangular ferrocement joists reinforced by chicken-wire mesh plus welded mesh and 8-mm rods. The ferrocement planks are used for lateral spanning on the two parallel joists placed at 0.4m spacing. Each of the precast ferrocement elements are designed to weigh less than 200kg, for the ease of manual handling, with-out the necessity of machines / cranes. In-situ screed concrete of 40mm thickness was laid on this roofing system made of precast ferrocement joists and planks, to enable them to act monolithically and for structurally connecting different precast elements. The full-scale / prototype roofing system for 4-m. span with overhang of 0.3m on either end for a total length of 4.6m and 0.8m width, is constructed for load testing. The structural investigations are carried-out on this roofing system by flexure testing, with gradually increasing UDL in the structural testing laboratory of CSIR-SERC. The test procedure is illustrated. Test results are tabulated and the conclusions are drawn. The advantages of this type of precast ferrocement roofing system are described. Read More...

An Approach for Cluster Head Selection using Hybrid Selection and Recovery Approach in WSN
-Parvinder Kaur
WSNs are used research area due to their several application domains. The presentation of WSNs depends on the topology of sensors and their ability to adapt to changes in the network. Sensor nodes are often resource constrained by their limited power, communication distance capacity is low, and restricted sensing capability. Therefore, they need to co-operate with each other to achieve a specific task. [1] [3] Thus, clustering enables sensor nodes to communicate through the cluster head node for constant communication process. In this paper, we introduce a dynamic cluster head selection technique. Every node in the cluster calculates its residual energy value to determine its candidacy to become the Cluster Head Node (CHN). [1] With this mechanism, each sensor node estimates its residual energy level to other nodes in the same cluster. Lean on the unused energy level the sensor node acts as the second cluster head. Interpretation of the dynamic CHN selection mechanism is shown using network simulator-2 (ns2). The simulation results show that the recommended methods drag out the network lifetime and adjust the energy utilization model among the nodes of the cluster. [2]. Read More...

-Ravishankar V Lawate ; Prof. Vishwanath. B. Patil
The G+20 multi storey irregular building is taken for present study. This building is modeled and analyzed by using ETABS V9.7.4. Assuming the material property as linear and nonlinear. The performance of the building is studied by comparing the base shear, displacement, storey drift in different analysis. Multi-storey buildings with open (soft) ground floor are inherently vulnerable to collapse due to earthquake load, even then their construction is still widespread in the developing nations. An investigation has been performed to study the behavior of the columns at ground level of multi-storey buildings with soft ground floor as satellite bus stop and moment transfer beams in all storey subjected to earthquake loading. The structural action of masonry infill panels of upper floors has also been taken into account by modeling them as diagonal struts. Shear wall is one of the most commonly used lateral load resisting in high rise building. In this study building is modeled with different shapes of shear wall with top and bottom soft storey.

Strengthening of RC Beam with SIFCON Laminates
-D. Chandira Kumar ; J. Soundharajan; M. Sarathkumar
Now a days natural and manmade disaster like earthquake, cyclone etc., play an important role in the behaviour of structures. Hence the structures has to be designed in a good manner which resists higher seismic and impact forces. Strengthening of existing RC framed buildings for impacting seismic resistance is a challenging engineering problem. Many of the existing buildings are found to have inadequate strength, ductility, or stiffness because they were designed and build when modern seismic requirements did not exist. SIFCON possess high strength, improved ductility, impact resistance and enhanced energy absorption capacity, so it is used as an option for strengthening the conventional reinforced concrete beam. The main thrust of the study has been aimed at characterizing the flexural strength of the beam strengthened with precast SIFCON laminate externally. Read More...

Effect of Braced Core Location on the Behaviour of High Rise Steel Structure with Outrigger Subjected to Dynamic Loads by using ETABS
-Kirankumar ; Shailaja; Chethan V R
A Steel Structure is generally a combination of different Steel Structural, which are designed to resist Gravity and Lateral loads, and also provide adequate Stability. Application of Steel Structures is found in almost all the construction sectors, which includes long span Structure like airport terminals, stadiums, exhibition centres, high rises buildings, manufacturing plants, tower and masts structures, portal frames, Bridges and Steel Structural members are used in Infrastructures and Agricultural Buildings and Building cranes. The different types of Bracing systems are provide at each Floor level which provides load paths to transfer horizontal forces to vertical frames, particularly to Columns where ultimately the forces will transfer to Ground level. High rise Steel moment resisting frame is considered for the Static and Dynamic analysis. Steel moment resisting frame are studied by incorporating outriggers and Steel braced Core. Braced core location is varied with respect to Centre of the building. Maximum lateral load resistance from braced core for particular location away from the Centre is found out. Equivalent Static and Dynamic Time history Analysis is carried out. From the analytical results and discussions it is concluded that Steel moment resisting frame with outrigger and braced core 10 m offset along negative Y direction can be recommended for the structure where shear core or braced core and outrigger systems cannot be provided at the centre of the structure. Also offset braced core steel structural systems are better in resisting the lateral force than that of conventional braced Core and outrigger system. Read More...
