Blockchain technology has evolved from being an immutable ledger of transactions for crypto currencies to a programmable interactive environment for building distributed reliable applications. Although, blockchain technology has been used to address various challenges, to our knowledge none of the previous work focused on using blockchain to develop a secure and immutable scientific data provenance management framework that automatically verifies the provenance records. In this work, we leverage blockchain as a platform to facilitate trustworthy data provenance collection, verification and management. According to various researches about one million graduates passing out each year, the certificate issuing authorities are seems to be compromised for the security credentials of student data. Due to the lack of effective ant forge mechanism, events that cause the graduation certificate to be forged often get noticed. In order to solve this problem digital certificate systems are introduced even though security issues are still exist. Blockchain is one of the most recent technology that can be adopted for the data security. The immutable property of the block chain helps to overcome the problem of certificate forgery. This paper proposed a custom blockchain for e-certificate generation for academic students. The implementation has done with multiple data nodes on peer to peer network.

Among the reasons for India’s unacceptably high rate of road accident fatalities is the inability to get timely medical treatment for victims. Official statistics put the number of people who died on the roads in 2015 at 1,46,000. It is reckoned that a larger percentage of them could have been saved had emergency medical treatment been provided immediately. In a report in 2006, the Law Commission estimated that 50 per cent of accident victims would have survived had they got medical attention within an hour. A major impediment to victims obtaining timely help is the fear among bystanders that they could be embroiled in a police investigation or be subjected to harassment due to the legal procedures involved if they chipped in to provide first-aid, ferry the injured to hospital or even call for medical or police assistance. This is why a ‘Good Samaritan’ legal protection is vital. Parliament has not enacted such a law, but thanks to the Supreme Court and a campaign by voluntary organisations, the Centre notified guidelines last year for the protection of those who help accident victims. In this project, the survey is carried out to check the behaviour of the stakeholders and to spread the awareness of the “Good Samaritan Law”. the objectives of this project is to acquainted the good Samaritan about their rights and to encourage the bye stander to help the victim.

The main disadvantage of building a toll plaza is that it increases the traffic on highway. Therefore, the aim of our study is to introduce a new concept of Toll booth Equivalency Factor (TEF) at toll plaza similar to that of PCU for mixed traffic conditions. The mixed traffic is converted into flow equivalent in passenger car units (PCU) and then multiplying them with number of each vehicle class by their respective PCU values and then adding them up. The PCU is a complex parameter and it depends upon multiple factors. Vehicle arrival at a toll booth is random inspite of the lane assigned to a particular vehicle category. Such mixed traffic in the same lane causes the variation in service time and hence reduces capacity. The vehicles in the lane are divided into four classes and mathematical models are developed to determine service time of a vehicle type based on approach volume and composition of traffic in the same lane. The service time is further used to determine TEF. The variation in TEF is explained on the basis of service time due to random arrival of vehicle and approach traffic volume. Further a concept of Stream Equivalency Factor (SEF) proposed will be useful to convert heterogeneous traffic volume in veh/hr to homogenous traffic volume in TEF/hr without actually determining the TEF factors for individual vehicle types at tollbooths. This work will be helpful for quick estimation of capacity. There are multiple phases in which study is carried out for identification of the problem, collection of the data, data analysis, then Paliyekkara toll plaza situated in NH 544 was selected to do the analysis. The current operational effectiveness can be drawn using data analysis and the parameters such as the Arrival Rates, Service Rates and the Number of toll booths are determined for estimating the Toll Booth Equivalency Factor of the toll plaza.

Agriculture being one of the major occupation in India, Agriculture plays a vital role in the Indian economy. Indian agriculture has registered impressive growth over last few decades. It is very essential to discover and implement new idea in this field, though lot of work has been done in this area. It is unfortunate that, these ideas are not being implemented properly in actual field. This is due to high cost and is complicated for rural people. Multipurpose agriculture or farming machine is basic and major machine involved in agriculture for maximum yielding. The Conventional method of weeding, watering, pesticide spraying and cutting is a laborious process and hence for that reason there is a scarcity of labours and basically, many farmers in India also use bullocks, horses and buffalo for farming operation. This will not satisfy need of energy requirement of the farming as compared to other countries in the world. This result in delayed agriculture crop production practices to overcome these difficulties, we are thinking that human and animal efforts can be replaced by some advance mechanism which will be suitable for small scale farmer from economical and effort point of view. So, we are developing this machine which will satisfy all this need and to solve labour problem. A solar powered multipurpose agricultural machine is designed for weeding, watering, pesticide spraying and cutting purpose.

The objective of emotion recognition is identifying emotions of a human. The emotion can be captured either from face or from verbal communication. In this work we focus on identifying human emotion from facial expressions. Facial emotion recognition is one of the useful task and can be used as a base for many real-time applications. It can be used as a part of many interesting and useful applications like Monitoring security, treating patients in medical field, marketing research, E-learning etc;. We humans can easily identify the emotion of other humans without any effort. Automatic detection of emotion of a human face is important due to its use in real-time applications. The recent advance in GPU has taken many applications like face recognition, hand written digit recognition and object recognition to the next level. Especially the pretrained CNN based features better represent the images. Pretrained CNN features represent the most discriminative features and hence allows for better performance. Feature representation plays a major role on the performance of any machine learning algorithm. After observing unbelievable performance with deep learning models, we propose to use the deep convolutional features to better represent the given image instead of using the traditional handcrafted features. The downside of the deep learning models is that they require large datasets to obtain better performance. To leverage the use of deep learning models without the requirement of large datasets is to use pre-trained models. For feature extraction pre-trained Convolutional Neural Networks model (VGG16) is used and the concept of Deep Neural Networks model is used for classification. To show the performance of the proposed model, various face image dataset is used for the experimental studies. Based on the experimental results we claim that these unsupervised features better represent the images compared the handcrafted features.

Materials find applications in space antennae, aerospace structures and ship structures. For high temperature applications, the functionally graded material gives good performance compared to the laminated composite materials. The twisted plates have various applications in the power generation field such as generator and turbine blades. Due to light weight and high stifiness properties, the Functionally Graded Materials are economical as they require less power. Many of these plates are subjected to high temperature environment in these applications; hence functionally graded material is a good alternative to metal plates. The present paper will explore the free vibration behavior of thin twisted functionally graded material (FGM) plates. The vibration analysis is done using finite element method. An 8 noded shell element is used for finite element calculations. To model the FGM section, continuous variation in the material property along the thickness is approximated to a laminated composite section consisting of a number of layers and each layer is considered as isotropic. The material property in each layer is determined using power law. Material density, Youngs modulus and Poissons ratio change along the thickness based on power law. The first order shear deformation theory is used in the analysis of pretwisted FGM plate.

Reinforced concrete building consists of horizontal structural members such as beams and slabs and vertical structural members such as columns and walls that are supported by foundation system. The foundation support is assumed as either fixed or hinge support where the foundation transmit the loads from the structure to the soil medium which undergoes a settlement depending on the characteristics of the soil medium, which in turn causes vertical settlement and differential settlement and rotation of the footings, that results in redistribution of the column loads, the amount of which depends on the rigidity of structure and the load-settlement characteristics of the soil. Thus, the concept of soil-structure interaction comes into existence. In the present work, an attempt is made to analyse and study the multi-storeyed reinforced concrete building frames supported on isolated footings considering soil-structure interaction system, defining soil medium by springs of equivalent stiffness, subjected to gravity and dynamic loadings. A seven storey number of building frames are analysed and types of soil as medium sand supporting the foundation system to observe the more generalised effect of soil-structure interaction on building frames. The results obtained by analysis are used to study the effects of soil compressibility on foundation settlement, support reactions, column and beam forces in the building frames. The study reveals that vertical and differential settlements are found more critical in seismic loading compared to gravity loading and the values of critical support moment are observed to be more in flexible base system than that of fixed base system. This study also reveals that the variations in bending moments is found more in lower storey as compared to upper storey of buildings in gravity as well as in seismic loading.
