Impact of knowledge sharing on the success of crisis management strategy

The aim of the research is to identify the impact of knowledge sharing on the success of crisis management strategy. The knowledge sharing was discussed through implicit and explicit knowledge. A conceptual model was presented to clarify the causal relationships between the variables, and the relationship was tested by calculating correlation coefficients and regression coefficients. The relationship of significant and high impact to the knowledge sharing in the crisis management strategy, and the declaration of implicit knowledge, as well as the distribution of explicit knowledge within the organization, enables it to build an effective crisis management strategy.

A method of data hiding in QR code using image steganography

As the day to day analysis, we need to keep our data safe so that our private data is safe. It can be applied through steganography. Also, we do add the QR code for the purpose of increasing the security and ease to access the information which is been sent. Steganography is being used with AES algorithm and LSB steganography. QR code is used to enhance the security.

Removal of ammonical nitrogen from industrial effluent

Ammonia removal from wastewater has become a worldwide emerging concern as ammonia proves to be toxic to aquatic species and also causes eutrophication in the natural water environment. Nitrogen compounds in our effluent have been removed by means of biological approaches(micro-organisms). Based on the microbial nitrogen cycle many biological technologies and processes have been developed and implemented for nitrogen removal from wastewater, such as de-nitrification, nitrification and by the use of biological species. However, with the effluent discharge standards have become more stringent (<10mg total nitrogen/L), conventional processes cannot meet the new requirements. We have removed the amount of nitrogen with the help of bacteria such as Nitrosomonas, Nitrospira. The limit of discharging nitrogen is 50ppm into the rivers. So by using these bacteria, our aim will be fulfilled.

Determination of eye end for natural fiber reinforced hybrid composite mono leaf spring

The automobile industry has shown interest in the replacement of conventional materials with composite due to its property of high strength ratio. Reducing weight while increasing or maintaining the strength of the product is highly important to research issue in the modern world. For this purpose, the material selected was jute fiber and carbon fiber in Epoxy resin.  Present work aims at determining the suitability of jute fiber reinforced hybrid composite to replace conventional multi-leaf spring. Various combination of jute fiber and carbon fiber in the epoxy resin is analyzed with respect to deflection. For this, a parabolic mono leaf spring is modeled in solid edge software and analyzed using simulation tool FEA. As eye end plays a pivotal role in attaching the leaf spring to the frame and determining is the capability to carry loads the spring is modeled with the eye end. Here again, two different possibilities are analyzed. In one case steel eye end is bolted to the Natural fiber reinforced hybrid composite (NFRHC) mono-leaf spring and in another, the eye end is made from the same composite. The two types are then statically and dynamically analyzed using ANSYS software. It is found that NFRHC leaf spring with steel eye end bolted to it has more stresses and lower strain energy compared to bonded eye end NFRHC leaf spring. While the Natural frequency of composite leaf spring is higher than the conventional leaf spring resonance will be reduced Hence NFRHC spring with bonded eye end is considered a suitable replacement with a weight reduction of 80% from that of conventional steel leaf spring.

Wireless detection and alerting of rash driving and accidents using smart device

Rash driving is most dangerous for people. Risky driving primarily includes heavy driving under the power of alcohol, is the major grounds of traffic accidents throughout the world. They provide an early detection to alert the dangerous vehicle maneuvers related to rash driving. There are lots of sensors used in various techniques to detect the rash driving. For this entire detection of rash driving, we require only a smartphone. We are going to use accelerometer sensor on the smartphone. After installing a program on the mobile phone, it will compute acceleration based on sensor readings and compare them with typical unsafe driving patterns extracted from real driving tests. The application allows the owner to track their cars. This application sends a notification to owner mobile regarding the car rash driving if any. It also sends the location of the car to the owner after every ten minutes. We can change this time interval.

Effect of nano-silica on mechanical properties and internal structure of pozzolanic concrete

In this research work, advancement of nanotechnology is used in order to improve performance characteristics of pozzolonic concrete (concrete having 30% class F fly ash in replacement of cement) with use of nano-sized silica (SiO2) particles, known as Nano-silica. This study may be considered as an important step towards better understanding the use of nano-silica in concrete as a remedy to overcome drawbacks of the use of pozzolans (drawback like late strength gain of hardened concrete). This research program aims at 1) further understanding the behaviour of cementitious materials when amended by nano-silicon various physio-mechanical properties (workability, compressive, tensile, flexural strength etc.) of pozzolonic concrete and 2) exploring the effect of this enhancement on the microstructure of cement matrix using SEM. The experimental program that was conducted included a laboratory investigation of concrete mixtures in which nano-silica was added to the compound cement and Class F fly ash. Three ratios of nano-silica (0%, 3% and 6% by wt. of the cementitious compound) were used in concrete mixtures to examine the extent and types of improvements that could be imparted to concrete. The conducted experimental program assessed these improvements in terms of mechanical properties and internal structure of the mixtures under investigation.
