Use of glass fiber in pavement quality concrete slab

The construction pavements have high strength, better durability and have the moderate economy for a long period of time. The pressure nowadays is to make light and green pavements of better serviceability, which can resist loads of high intensity. The main objective of this study is to design the slab thickness of pavement quality concrete (PQC) using achieved the flexural strength of the concrete mixture. In this study, glass fiber is added to concrete at different percentages like 0.05%, 0.1%, 0.2%, and 0.4% and then these results are compared to the normal concrete mix. The flexural and split tensile strength are increasing as the fiber content is increasing. The study shows that having the high values of flexural strength and split tensile strength helps in higher load carrying capacity and higher life expectancy. The addition of glass fiber to concrete help in reducing the slab thickness and the least thickness of pavement slab is found for the addition of 0.4% glass fiber to concrete. As for pavement slab thickness is also reduced for M4-GF (0.05%) mix by 110 mm as compared with control mix result as per IRC 58:2002. The study helps in decreasing the cost of the project, thus by saving the cost of the material without even decreasing the strength of concrete.

Analysis and design of pipeline system instead of the canal system

Canals enhanced irrigation water losses and the annual cost of maintenance became uneconomical for the long term. Easy maintenance, durability, modification capability and flexibility of pipelines give them the potential to be the economical alternative to replace the Canals. Pipes were selected to construct a network of the pipeline due to the availability of Plastic Irrigation Pipes and Reinforced Concrete Pipes. This study has been undertaken to analyze canal system and to design a pipeline system to replace it. The study area is Khadka Irrigation Project, located on Mule river basin in Ahmednagar district, Maharashtra. The overall efficiency of pipeline system was found out to be much better than Open Canal System also the distribution efficiency by use of lift irrigation was found out to be boundless.

Automation of tank level by using PLC and SCADA / HMI

The proposed system provides an analysis of the simulation and components required for the implementation of an automated level control system with the help of Programmable Logic Controller (PLC).Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) was established and the HMI was created. The proposed model can effectively supervise level control in multiple tanks. Three level sensors were used to provide the level data to the PLC. PLC used this data to take the required decisions and thereby turning ON and OFF a pump. A manual switch was also provided to override the automatic system. The SIMATIC S7-300 universal controller was used as the main decision-making module. The system was implemented in SCADA to create the required Human Machine Interface (HMI). Modifications can be made by using float sensors model which would effectively provide the correct level but the cost would increase and vibration of the sensor might disrupt the result, our model effectively counters those shortcomings. This paper presents a case study of SCADA system for monitoring and control of the parameters in water supply system. The system main functional parameters and performs continuous supervision of water distribution stations in order to allow any problem to be solved. The control system is organized in a hierarchical structure with three layers. The first layer consists of field instruments, remote terminal units, and field control devices. The signals from instruments via transmitters are sent to dedicated PLC panels at the second layer. The SCADA central level contains high-speed pc computer for supervision or operative drive of remote processes. Water level sensing can be implemented in industrial plants, commercial use and even at home.

Highly sensitive pin-accessibility for ATM using human body communication

In this 21st century, we are searching for the technology which gives us better security and highest protection. We expect technology that should be genuine this need is satisfied by growing most genuine and new technology invented in 2005 called’ HAN based RED-TACTON’ by NTT’s, which is Japanese corporation. This technology is similar to LAN, MAN, WAN, HAN is nothing but human area network and these are advanced to WLAN, infrared and Bluetooth. This technology mainly used in security matters like accessing the things, lock or unlock the things which are we use daily. Here we use the redtacton technology with biometrics (user’s fingerprint for identification) for personal identification and to provide the high level of security and accuracy in ATM machines. Additionally, DC motor is used for rolling the shutter.

Multi-factor authentication for secure electronic balloting credentials

In recent times there has been a decline in the confidence of common people over the Electronic Voting Machines (EVMs). Today’s automated vote casting methods have faced immense controversy to being vulnerable to hacking and questions have been raised about their transparency and security. This paper is lodged in style and develop a tamper-resistant electronic legal system that aims to alleviate the problems with existing machines. Here, multiple bedded verification method is administrated on an associate eligible citizen by means of fingerprint recognition primarily to demonstrate his identity. Subsequently, the person would cast the vote by pressing a button corresponding to a particular candidate which would be recorded in the system providing the vote caster a visual confirmation. Then steganography technique is used to hide secret messages into ordinary digital media without drawing suspicion. This system not only prevents multiple vote casts but also eliminates the discrepancies that commonly arise with a person claiming not to have voted, whereas his or her name is present in the list of vote casters. The experimental results show that the proposed method outperforms previous EVMs by electronically transmitting their results back to the Election Commission from the control unit, through a simple and unconditionally secure protocol.

Smart grid and smart transformer powered by IoT

The electricity sector in the country is facing many problems, one such a major problem is that power theft in power lines and power grids. Still, there are some villages in the country do not have 24 hours electric power, that is there is a shortage of electricity and this lack of power supply is directly impacting on the country’s economic growth. The electricity sector plays a major role in Indian economy. The project is mainly focused on both hardware and software. The project implements power theft detection and other management services such as voice announcement facility to the concerned department, finding the location of power theft, plotting GPS points in google maps, auto police complaint to the nearest police station, power theft location sharing to police and finally capturing photos remotely for proof of theft. Our project consists of SMS enabled application and voice-based application. This project will also consist of the following features such as object detection on the power line and power grid, measuring temperature in the transformer such as high and low and measuring oil level in the transformer. Measuring temperature and oil level in the transformer and taking necessary actions will lead to improving power transmission and it also boosts transformer efficiency.
