Quadcopters generally use two pairs of identical fixed pitched propellers; two clockwise (CW) and two counterclockwise (CCW). These use independent variation of the speed of each rotor to achieve control. By changing the speed of each rotor it is possible to specifically generate a desired total thrust; to locate for the centre of thrust both laterally and longitudinally; and to create a desired total torque, or turning force. A quadcopter, also called a quadrotor helicopter or quadrotor, is a multirotor helicopter that is lifted and propelled by four rotors. Battery was used as a power source to run the motors, thereby propellers. Modeling and Analysis are the two important unavoidable steps in manufacturing any component or structure.

Concrete is considered to be the most widely used and versatile material of construction all over the world. In recent years, concrete technology has made significant advances which have resulted in economical improvements in strength of concrete. This economic development depends upon the intelligent use of locally available materials. One of the important ingredients of conventional concrete is natural sand or river sand. Scarcity of good quality Natural River sand due to depletion of resources and restriction due to environmental consideration has made concrete manufactures to look for suitable alternative fine aggregate. One such alternative is "crumb rubber". Because of crushing quarries and converting them as fine aggregates, demand for coarse aggregates also increases. To meet this demand, another alternative to river sand is crumb rubber which can be used as fine aggregates in manufacturing concrete. An attempt has been made in this study to determine the compressive strength of M20 grade concrete using crumb rubber as replacement for fine aggregate.

Generally RC framed structures are designed without regards to structural action of masonry infill walls present. Masonry infill walls are widely used as partitions. These buildings are generally designed as framed structures without regard to structural action of masonry infill walls. They are considered as non- structural elements. RC frame building with open first storey is known as soft storey, which performs poorly during strong earthquake shaking. Past earthquakes are evident that collapses due to soft storeys are most often in RC buildings. In the soft storey, columns are severely stressed and unable to provide adequate shear resistance during the earthquake. Hence a combination of two structural system components i.e. Rigid frames and RC shear walls or Rigid frames and Bracings leads to a highly efficient system in which shear wall and bracings resist the majority of the lateral loads and the frame supports majority of the gravity loads. From the above studies it has been observed that non-linear pushover analysis provide good estimate of global as well as local inelastic deformation demands and also reveals design weakness that may remain hidden in an elastic analysis and also the performance level of the structure. Storey drifts are found within the limit as specified by code (IS: 1893-2002 part-1) in both linear static, linear dynamic and non-linear static analysis.

Concrete is the most widely used man-made construction material in the construction world. It is obtained by mixing cement aggregate sand water in required proportion. With increase in demand of concrete, more and more new methods and new materials are being developed for production of concrete. Sometimes certain additives are added to it to improve or alter some properties. Making concrete is an art which has to be perfectly done, otherwise that will end up with bad concrete. Hence as a Civil Engineer one should be thorough with the entire factors from which a good concrete is produced. A concrete using cement alone as a binder requires high paste volume ,which often leads to excessive shrinkage and large evolution of heat of hydration ,besides increased cost .An attempt is made to replace cement by a mineral admixture ,(i.e.),ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS) in concrete mixes to overcome these problems. This paper presents the workability study of concrete with GGBS as are placement material for cement with addition of superplasticiser. Concrete grades of M40 have been taken for the work. The mixes were designed using IS Code method. GGBS replacement adopted was 0% to 50. Slump test, Compaction factor test, Vee Bee Consistometer test was conducted. Effect of replacement of cement by GGBS at various percentages and on the grades of concrete chosen with Superplasticiser This paper focuses on investigating characteristics of M40 grade concrete with partial replacement of cement with ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS) by replacing cement 0% to 50% The cubes, cylinders and beam are tested for compressive strength, split tensile strength, flexural strength.

This project presents a system to detect rash driving on highways. In case of any violation of rules it helps the traffic authorities. In past, lot of devices was made to detect rash driving on highways. Most of the approaches require human concentration and involve a lot of effort, which is difficult to implement. The main aim is to design a system for early detection and alert of dangerous vehicle driving patterns related to rash driving. The presence of a vehicle is detected by IR sensor. A set point of a pair of sensors comprises an IR transmitter and an IR receiver, each of which are installed on either sides of the road. Whenever IR rays are interrupted by a vehicle during first sensor the count up timer is started. When the other IR sensor senses the presence of vehicle, the count up timer is stopped. The speed limit set by the device is kept at the very location depending upon the traffic. The time taken by the vehicle to travel from one set point to the other is calculated by a microcontroller program. Based on that time it then calculates the speed. The LCD is used to display the speed of the vehicle. If the vehicle crosses the speed limit, a buzzer sounds alerting the police. The main motive behind coming up with this system is to increase the safety features of the vehicles. For measuring the distance ultrasonic sensor is used.
