Thermal Stress Analysis of Homogeneous Orthotropic Plate with New Thermal Profiles Using First Order Shear Deformation Theory


Laminated composite plates are extensively used in Civil, Mechanical and Aerospace industries. A composite material is formed by combining two or more materials, so that the properties of the composites are different from those of the individual constituent's materials. Laminated composites formed by fibres are bound together using binding material called '˜matrix'. The reinforcing fibers used in fibrous composites are having high modulus and ultimate strength. 


The matrix which is used to bind the fibers together should be able to transfer the loads to the fibers, as well as be able to protect the fibers from damage. Analytical models in single layered laminated orthotropic plate gives shear deformation and transverse normal thermal strains is validated for the thermal stress analysis subjected to gradient thermal profile across the thickness of laminate. 

First Order Shear Deformation Theory (FOST) is used for calculating various quantities and give good agreement with gradient thermal profile for thin plates. Based on these new results are prepared for additional three thermal profiles contains linear as well as parabolic path across thickness of plate with different boundary conditions.

Design of Electrical Analogy Apparatus for Drawing Flownet and Studying Uplift Pressure


Flow of electrical current through a conducting medium is analogous to groundwater flow through a porous medium because both are governed by Laplace equation. This analogy was used in an alternate representational approach in flownet concepts. The report employed the easily demonstrable electrical counterpart to represent the groundwater flow problem in a laboratory setting. 


This report discusses the flownet principles better by using the electrical analogy for selected groundwater flow situations. However, it was also demonstrated that the electrical analogy concept can be applied for a wide range of groundwater flow situations with a few simple modifications. Our aim is to design a simplest model for determining flow net concept precisely.

IoT - Internet of Things Based Energy Management for Smart Home


This paper presents an idea or a concept for smart home using mobile application. Today, smart home industry is growing widely; this is powered by the need to provide systems, which provides support for aged and physically handicapped people, especially people who lives alone. Smart home or home automation can be said as the residential extension of building automation, it also involves the automation and controlling of lightings, ACs, ventilation and security which also includes home appliances such as dryers/washers, ovens or refrigerators/freezers which uses Wi-Fi for monitoring via remote. 


Smart Home must have compliance with all the household standards and ease of use. This paper focuses on flexible, cost friendly wireless smart home system, which would be based on an Android App. The app will be working with the help of node mcu ESP8266 and firebase also Internet of Things. The App would be featuring the process of mobile app that would be taking commands from user in order to control different home appliances that would be connected via IOT.

An Efficient Smart Garbage Disposal System - A Review


In the recent decades, Urbanization has increased tremendously. At the same phase there is an increase in waste production. Waste management has been a crucial issue to be considered. This review paper is a way to achieve this good cause. In this review paper, smart bin is built on a microcontroller based platform. Microcontroller would be programmed in such a way that it could control the operations of servo doors. This microcontroller would control all three components of our project. The basic idea of our project is the van could move around area given to it. 


The van is basically a line following robot which would stop at certain intervals below the container, the container would drop off the garbage into the van. The van would go to next station and drop the garbage into the dumping pit. Once these smart bins are implemented on a large scale, by replacing our traditional bins present today, waste can be managed efficiently as it avoids unnecessary lumping of wastes on roadside.

Foul smell from these rotten wastes that remain untreated for a long time, due to negligence of authorities and carelessness of public may lead to long term problems. Breeding of insects and mosquitoes can create nuisance around promoting unclean environment. This may even cause dreadful diseases.

Flexural Behaviour of GFRP Bars


Reinforced Cement Concrete (RCC) structures are usually reinforced with steel bars which are subjected to corrosion at critical temperatures and atmospheric conditions. Also the cost of steel reinforcement plays a significant role in any RCC construction. The rising prices of steel and their unavailability throughout the year have brought the contractors and engineers into a great trouble. 


The RCC structures can also be reinforced with other materials such as fibers specifically Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymer and Carbon Reinforced Fiber Polymer (GFRP). This deals with the study of RCC beams when reinforced with the Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymer (GFRP) as a replacement of steel reinforcement and studying the behavior of beam under flexure.

An Experimental Analysis of Turning Operation in EN 31ALLOY


Turning is a form of machining process which is used to create a cylindrical part by cutting away unwanted materials. Today the most common type of automation is computer numerical control, better known as CNC. Components such as axles, shafts can be manufactured by turning process. In that manufacturing unit mainly focuses on high quality with increased production rate and profit level of the firm and so it's important to determine the optimal machining parameters such as speed, feed and depth of cut. 


This works deals with the selecting the optimal parameters that plays a critical role in increasing the productivity with desired product quality at minimum cost and reduced lead time. The experiments were conducted with Taguchi's L 9 mixed orthogonal array. Coated insert was used to machine the EN 31 alloy steel work pieces on computer numerical controlled (CNC) lathe. 

The optical parameters were found using Taguchi's approach individually for minimum surface roughness and maximum material removal rate (MRR) and were compared with the results obtained from Grey relation analysis.

Study of Pumping test on well for Pre-Manson and Post-Manson for NANNAJ BASIN


Pumping tests are normally carried out to determine the yield of the well and the drawdown. This information provides a basis for determining the water supply available from the well, for selecting the type of the pump and for estimating the cost of pumping. Hydrological studies at different depth horizons for the Nannajodha basin in Solapur, district, Maharashtra, India has been represented by various contourmaps at different electrode spacing. 


We are correlated with the local Geology of the area to detect the various pre-monsoon and post-monsoon readings of the groundwater.
