Abstract
A dielectric material is a poor conductor of electricity but an efficient supporter of electrostatic
fields and hence store electrical energy. Dielectric materials are also used in various applications
including conventional capacitors to ultra capacitors of modern day. In the era of technology
evolution, the properties for the dielectric materials can be drastically improved paving the way
for new applications to evolve. Latest research reveals that use of nano-composites with suitable
dielectric fillers with polymers as base materials improves the dielectric properties enormously
which could not be realized in conventional dielectric materials. This is the result of high surface
area to volume ratio, small distance between fillers, and bulk interfacial properties which
enhance the ductility with same strength, scratch resistance, hardness and light transmission
characteristics. These properties, of course, depend on particle size of the dielectric filler. In this
review, an overview of the nano dielectric materials, a brief outline of relevant theories on one
front and experimental results on the other front are provided. Few latest experimental results to
demonstrate the improved dielectric properties are presented and discussed. Also, the
nanocomposites as very good EMI shielding materials has been demonstrated. It can be
concluded that nano dielectric materials are considered highly potential and promising insulating
materials of the future with wide open application domains.

Abstract
The aluminium based metal matrix is used as light weight components in the manufacturing
industries and is popular for its low density and high stiffness. Various reinforcing materials
like Silicon Carbide, Aluminium Oxide, Graphite and CNTs are best suitable for aluminium
based metal matrix composites. In this paper, we are presenting the comparison study of
fabrication of Al6065 alloy composite with MWCNT by stir casting technique. This alloy, with
and without SDS coated CNT is used to investigate the dispersion characteristics. The presence
of low molecular weight surfactant was investigated by FT-IR. About 1% of CNT composite
is used as a filler metal and the dispersion of SDS coated and Non-Coated CNT is examined
by Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM). In comparison with the Non-SDS coated CNT, the
one coated showed good dispersion stability in the fabricated composite with increase in the
hardness of the reinforced metal.

Abstract
In the modern world, the polymers and composite materials find a wide range of applications.
In the real-world environment, the damages in the components can’t be avoided due to expose
to the dynamic environment. This damage can occur, internally or externally at the microscopic
level, which can’t be noticed with bare eyes. These microscopic damages can further lead to
failure of the product. This can lead to losses in factors such as components, products and other
resources. Based on the idea of self-healing capacity of tissues present in the living beings,
researchers have developed self-healing polymer composites, which have the inherent ability
to give solution to heal the internal cracks or damages automatically or non-automatically
with/without any external intervention. This present paper portrays a brief review of self-
healing material in the polymer composites on self-healing mechanism, advantages, limitations
and applications in the field of aerospace, automobile, coating of the material, electronics,
energy sector and many more.
Keywords: Polymer composites, Epoxy resin, Self-healing materials.

Abstract
Composite structures are widely used in aerospace, automobile and transport sectors. Even
though their performance and reliability are very high, there is a major problem for disposal
after their service life. Plastics and synthetic fibers are major concern and threat to
environment. Recycling is a biggest problem because it cannot be used again for critical
components due to loss in strength and technology development for recycling is not up to the
mark. Therefore, there is an increase in tendency to use natural fibers at least for secondary
structures like panels, boards, doors and cockpit dashboards etc. but natural fibers have the
problems of atmospheric degradation and their weak interfacial bonding with resin. In the
present paper, studies are conducted on glass-jute hybrid composites to explore possibility of
using jute fibers in glass fiber composites. Samples were fabricated with different proportions
in layup process. These specimens are subjected to bending, ILSS, moisture absorption and
flammability tests according to ASTM standards for conforming for application to secondary
structures. The moisture absorbing and flammability tests conducted will be useful to predict
how these composites behave in case of fire and extreme humid conditions. Also, the results
show that adding jute fibers to glass there will be improved stiffness and shear strength
properties

Abstract
MMCs are considered as potential materials for multiple applications due to their unique
physical and mechanical properties. For further improvement in the strength of the material, its
low density, stiffness, wear and creep properties can be improved by addition of
reinforcements. It has been observed that improved strength, stiffness and wear resistance in
most metal matrix is, by addition of particle reinforcements such as Graphene, CNTs and SiC.
The characterization of these new materials is essential for their intended applications.
Micromechanics methods and finite element methods are two most prominent methods to
predict the mechanical properties of new materials and thus avoiding the laboratory cost. This
paper reviews the effect of various reinforcements on MMCs through micromechanical and
FEM analysis. The various algorithms adopted in micromechanics are also discussed in detail.
The behaviour of interface in reinforced metal matrix is also discussed in this paper.
Keywords: MMCs (Metal Matrix Composites), CNTs (Carbon Nanotubes) and SiC (Silicon
Carbide).

Abstract
High strength to weight ratio and several mechanical, thermal and recycling properties makes
aluminium as ideal choice for various applications in industrial sectors like automotive,
beverage containers, aeronautics and constructions. During casting process, due to improper
solidification the defects like porosity, pits etc are formed in the metal. This casting defect
reduces the mechanical properties of the material. In order to enhance mechanical properties
processing of metal is required. One of the processing techniques suitable for this is Friction
Stir Processing. In this work, we have used FSP to synthesize aluminium matrix composite
reinforced with polymer derived ceramic. For the resulting composite the properties like
microhardness, tensile strength was studied for four and six passes and compared with the base
metal. The hardness for the processed material increases three times and four times for four
and six passes respectively, when compared with the base metal. The results showed that with
the increase in the number of passes, the tensile properties of composites including ultimate
tensile strength and yield strength were improved.

Abstract
Resistance heating furnace is a device where heat energy is generated by creating resistance to
the flow of electrons through an element (a good conductor for electricity as also for heat), thus
due to high friction, a temperature is developed and heat the charged materials. High
temperature resistance furnace, in the conventional systems, regarding manufacturing,
insulation, temperature controlling (while heating to desired high temperature 1800 degree C,
or above), cause tremendous thermal losses or becomes very bulky and costly affairs. Though
concept of high temperature resistance furnace’ is quite old, but, recent development of
material science has created a radical change in the aspects of manufacturing process, in the
concept of insulation, concept of control systems and in design of heating system astonishingly.
Considering all the new – age developments, present proposed work is outlined specifically to
meet the requirements of “high and low temperature furnace with compound heating system
(using three different types of heating elements, namely Kanthal A1, silicon carbide-SiC and
molybdenum di-sillicide-MoSi2 to raise working temperature of furnace up to 1800 degree C).
A new design is to arrest thermal losses to minimum, using improved insulation to improve
thermal efficiency, and with latest control systems (PID programmable type). The goal of this
experiments is to achieve optimum thermal efficiency with skin temperature equal to the room
temperature, to achieve accurate results in terms of resolution and sensitivity, and for
continuous operations for various heating processes requiring temperature rise from ambient
temperature up to 1800 degree C, also in multiple ranges to be followed continuously one after
another, for wide range of applications as laboratory furnaces, testing equipments within
temperature 1800 degree C and above. The present experiment will be a great mileage ushering
new era for research in the field of thermal engineering in coming years.
Keywords: Resistance furnace, maximum working temperature 1800C, zirconium insulation,

Abstract
The use of materials like asbestos and metals such as aluminium are being used from ages.
Over the period, advancement in engineering has led us to various materials which provides
several different advantages over the former. In modern era life has transformed and the needs
of people have changed dramatically. As we move towards the new era advanced materials
should cost less. Jute, coir and rice husk fibres are biodegradable material which has no adverse
effect on environment. These natural fibers are abundant in quantity having low cost and ease
in availability. With this the use of materials like bone powder, tooth powder can also improve
the properties at the surface. Although materials like asbestos and several metals are available
possessing optimum strength their use comes with certain disadvantages and cost issues with
very less opportunities of recycling whereas being biodegradable materials makes the
composite quite repairable and recyclable. In this study an investigation has been carried out
to make use of coir and jute with epoxy resin to form a polymer composite material with
enhanced mechanical properties. Composites formed are more reliable and sustainable
compared to the conventional one and partially eco-friendly.

Abstract
Graphite foam with extremely high thermal conductivity has been investigated to enhance heat
transfer of latent heat thermal energy storage (LHTES) systems. However, the use of graphite
foam for elevated temperature applications (>600oC) is limited due to poor oxidation resistance
of graphite. In this proposed research, oxidation resistance of graphite foam coated with silicon
carbide (SiC) is to be investigated. A pre-ceramic polymer derived coating (PDC) method is
planned to be used to form a SiC coating on the graphite foams. Post coating deposition, the
samples are to be analyzed by scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersive
spectroscopy. The oxidation resistance of PDC-SiC coating is quantified by measuring the
weight of the samples at several measuring points. The experiments are to be conducted under
static argon atmosphere in a furnace. After the experiments, oxidation rates (%/hour) were
calculated to predict the lifetime of the graphite foams.

Abstract
This paper presents corrosion studies carried out on Silicon Carbide reinforced Al metal matrix
composites subjected to cold forging. Al/SiC composites were fabricated using stir casting
process for 2%, 4% and 6% weight percentages of SiC. The corrosion studies were carried out
for test variables - normality of solution, weight % of SiC and corrosion duration for as cast,
single and double forged conditions. The specimens were tested in NaCl solutions of normality
of the 1.0, 1.5 and 2 and the exposure period ranging from 40 to 90 days. From the studies it is
observed that, there is an appreciable decrease of the corrosion rate and weight loss per unit
area, which was observed to be severe in the initial stages. This phenomenon of decrease of
corrosion rate with exposure time were attributed to possible passivation of matrix alloy with
the formation of protective layer formed on the specimen exposed to NaCl protecting the base
metal from aggressive environment. Irrespective of weight % of SiC reinforcement the
corrosion rate is increased with the increase in concentration of NaCl. Increase in weight % of
the SiC particles lead to decreased corrosion rate than that of the matrix alloy. The corrosion
morphology indicated pit formation, preferentially corresponding to SiC clusters and the
formation of pits on the surfaces were found to increase with increase in the percentage of SiC.
It was found that corrosion loss is very less and significantly improves corrosion resistance in
forging conditions.

Abstract
The Metal matrix composites (MMCs) are of great interest in industrial applications for lighter
materials with high specific strength, stiffness and heat resistance. In MMCs, aluminium-
matrix composites reinforced with discontinuous reinforcements are very attractive because
they give the best combination of strength, ductility and toughness and they can be processed
by conventional methods such as rolling, forging, extrusion and as a final process, machining.
In the present investigation Al-4.5wt.%Cu alloy is chosen as matrix reinforced with fly ash and
B4C by squeeze casting technique. The composite of 2wt.% and 4wt.%fly ash with 2, 4, 6wt.%
B4C were reinforced in Al-4.5wt.%Cu matrix. The composites fabricated by squeeze casting
were hot rolled at different reductions of 0, 8, 16 and 25%. The results showed improved
hardness, tensile strength till 16% reduction; whereas wear resistance is higher for minimum
percentage of reinforcement with increase in extend of rolling. Higher weight percentage of
reinforcements with higher reduction results in shrinkage cavities and particle cracking during
rolling.

Abstract:
SiCp-Grp/AZ91 magnesium matrix hybrid composites were fabricated by stir casting with
particle size of both SiC and graphite particles being 27μm. The each of the reinforcement
contents was varied from 0 to 3 wt. % in steps of 1 wt. %. The hybrid composite specimens
were heat treated (solutionized and age hardened). The experimental results reveal that the
reinforcements and heat treatment play an important role on the damping capacities properties
of the composites. Dynamic Mechanical Analyzer was used to carry out the Damping tests on
cantilever specimens over a temperature range from room temperature to 400°C.It was found
that the damping capacity of the hybrid composites increased with increasing temperature and
reinforcement content. Key words: Magnesium, Hybrid composites, Solutionizing, Age

Abstract
Calcium Phosphate Cements are brittle biomaterials of low bending strength. Since their
discovery in the 1980s, extensive research has been conducted to improve their properties, and
emerging evidence supports their increased application in bone substitute material. Much effort
has been made to enhance their mechanical properties of these cements by reinforcement with
fibres. Altering particle size distribution in conjunction with using liquefiers reduces the
amount of cement liquid necessary for cement paste preparation. This in turn decreases cement
porosity and increases the mechanical performance, but does not change the brittle nature of
the cements. In this process we introduce a new class of composite that is reinforced with
titanium and aluminium alloy wires. Bending strength and ductility of the composites increased
with aspect ratio and volume content of the reinforcements. Reinforcement with metal and
polymer fibers (PLA) further improved the qualitative fracture behaviour and gave indication
of enhanced strength and ductility. Calcium magnesium phosphate cement (CMPC) reinforced
with titanium wire as reinforcement is having compression strength of 52 mpa. Flexural
strength of CMPC reinforced with titanium wire is of 35 mpa. X-ray diffraction and SEM
techniques are used to characterize the structure of powders with or without physiological
conditions, it was found that the CMPC contained cylinder-like crystals and clay-like
substances to form a dense structure, and the crystals were in close proximity to each other.

microstructural refinement was further increased by hot compression. The microstructure of
as-cast alloy composed of coarse plate-like primary Si particles and needle/fiber form of
eutectic Si randomly distributed in the Al dendritic matrix. Room temperature hardness and
tensile strength of spray formed and hot compressed alloy showed considerable increase in
their strength and ductility over that of as cast alloy. The improvement in hardness, mechanical
properties of spray deposited alloy is discussed in light of the microstructural refinement
induced during spray deposition and hot pressing processes.

Abstract
Composite materials are formed by combination of two or more materials that are combined
at a macroscopic level which are not soluble in each other and retain their characteristics when
combined to achieve required properties. Fiber-reinforced composites are known for their
versatile properties such as, high strength to weight ratio, high stiffness to weight ratio, high
impact strength, high fatigue resistance, etc. Hence they are most commonly used in aerospace,
automotive, marine structures and defence sectors. Composites have high strength in the
direction of fiber, lesser in strength in transverse direction. Transverse loads cause Barely
Visible Impact Damage (BVID) which results in catastrophic failure of composites and
structure. BVID has been the topic of continual research due to its complexity in early detection
and prevention. Composite Stiffened Panels are widely used in the modern aircrafts structure,
which has the advantage of light weight, structural efficiency and good crack performance, but
they have lesser performance in thickness direction, especially for low- velocity Impact. Hence
an extensive study of Impact behaviour with barely visible damage is necessary.
In present study Low-velocity impact response and damage analysis of simple CFRP laminate
and stiffened CFRP laminate using finite element modeling with LS-DYNA has been studied.
Keywords— Composite, Composite stiffened Panel, Impact response, Impact damage, Barely
visible impact damage.

Abstract
A composite material is a made from two or more constituent material with significantly
different physical or chemical properties that, when combined produce a material with
characteristics different from individual components remain separate and distinct within the
finished structure, differentiating composite from mixtures and solid solution. The new
material may be preferred for many reasons; common examples include materials which are
stronger, lighter, or less expensive when compared to traditional materials. Natural fiber
composites are a class of materials which are currently replacing the synthetic fiber composites
for practical applications. This paper deals with the fabrication and investigation of hybrid
natural fiber (wood powder) composites. The following properties can be improved by forming
a composite material: tensile strength, stiffness, non-corrosive, wear resistance, flexibility, high
durability, thermal insulation. Mechanical characterization of the natural composite is obtained
by testing the composite lamina for tensile, shear, and impact strength. Chopped Glass fiber is
used, which is mixed with wood powder for different model with different percentage, which
improves the adhesive property and adds strength.

Abstract
Composite in composite material means, two or more materials combined on a macroscopic
scale to form a useful material. The advantage of composite is, they exhibit the best qualities
of their constituents and also some qualities that neither constituent possesses. Compared to
particular metals, advanced composites have greater arduousness and good strength but with
lesser density. These properties make advanced composites extremely attractive and purposeful
in situations where component weight is critical. Fibers from natural and man-made sources
are used to make composites. The following experiment was conducted, to develop mechanics-
based experimental approach to estimate the thermal and mechanical properties of composites
made according the hand layup technique. The study is done on composite materials produced
by reinforcing natural fibre i.e., sugarcane bagasse. Epoxy and hardener are used as binding
agents. The composite was also embedded with varied amount of ash content (5, 10, 15, and
20%). It was then subjected to various tests for characterization. The higher percentage of ash
content in the matrix is known to give a higher resistance to heat, a property that can be
harnessed to tolerate friction heat in extensive mechanical work. The composite material can
be utilized in the field of automobiles, false ceiling, flooring of buildings, pavements etc. They
are also environmentally friendly and economical.

Abstract
Metal Matrix Composites (MMCs) have emerged as an important class of materials for
structural, wear, thermal and electrical applications, primarily because of their superior strength
to weight and strength-to-cost ratios when compared to equivalent commercial alloys. The
properties of metal matrix composite depend on the matrix material, reinforcement material,
reinforcement particle size, composite fabrication method, etc. The aluminium based matrix
composites (AMC) have the potential to offer desirable properties, including strength, high
specific stiffness and excellent wear resistance that make them very attractive for numerous
applications in aerospace, automotive and military industries. Because of its low density, low
melting point, high specific strength and thermal conductivity, aluminium has been reinforced
with a wide variety of ceramic particulates such as Al2O3, SiC, TiB2 and TiC. Among these
particulates, TiC and Al2O3 have emerged as outstanding ceramic reinforcements because of
their prominent mechanical, electrical and optical properties and wide range of applications.
The present work mainly focused on the preparation Al/TiC metal matrix composite by adding
Titanium carbide particles in different weight percentage to Al6061 alloy through stir casting
technique. Titanium Carbide particles were incorporated in to aluminium alloy with varying
proportions from 3% to 12% in the steps of 3% by weight. The cast composites were further
processed in secondary manufacturing method by extrusion process to enhance the properties.
Different tests were carried out to evaluate mechanical properties such as ultimate tensile
strength, ultimate compression strength, impact strength and hardness. It is observed that the
strength and hardness of the composite increased with the increase of reinforcement and
extrusion process further enhances all the properties.

Abstract
Surface coating is an economical method for the production of materials, tools and machine
parts that require the desired surface properties such as corrosion-erosion and wear resistance.
Research is going in over years to reduce corrosion-erosion and wear either in the form of using
a new corrosion-erosion and wear resistance material or by improving these properties in
existing material by using surface coating materials in various fields such as aerospace, thermal
power plants and gas turbines. In this paper, an attempt has been made to review the work of

Abstract
Now-a-days renewable energy source has become an important source of power generation
due to the fast depletion of fossil fuels. Power generation due to wind is one of leading
renewable sources of energy. This work will illustrate a new concept of power generation
using bladeless wind turbine. Advantages of bladeless wind turbine are majorly the absence of
moving parts, so the friction loss will be low and also, it is eco-friendly. We use traditional
wind turbines to produce energy, but the production cost is high and many disadvantages like
capital cost, maintenance cost, running cost, friction loss etc. In this work, we generate
electricity by using the bladeless turbine on the principle of “Vortex effect”. It will generate
electricity with the help of oscillation or vibrations produced due to the flowing of wind. It
works on the principle of vibrations. Here the electricity is generated by using linear generator.
The working principle is simple, when the air strikes the oscillation member; the vibrations are
produced and these are converted into reciprocating motion in generator. Hence the electric
voltage is produced by the linear generator and power is stored in batteries via capacitor.
Keywords: Renewable energy, bladeless wind turbine, vortex effect, oscillation, piezoelectric

Abstract
An excavator is a typical kinematic linkage which consists of four links namely body, boom,
stick and a bucket. It consists of revolute joints and controlled by hydraulic cylinders. Joint
angles are functions of length of the actuator. Replacing the bucket with some other
attachments, the excavator can be made multi-purpose so as to perform several operations such
as digging, material handling, demolition, crushing, cutting etc. The tip of the bucket is used
for digging operation. Digging force exerted by the tip on the ground depends on the orientation
of the bucket and transmission angle. Magnitude of digging force varies with directions at
general configurations. The forces adversely affect the excavator, sometimes leading to severe
damages of mechanical components during operation. At isotropic configuration, forces of
uniform magnitude can be exerted in all directions on the ground. It is possible to maximize
the digging force and minimize the effort at isotropic positions. Hence, it is essential to
optimize the design of excavator linkages based on the concept of force isotropy. The study
focuses on isotropy of commercially available wheel based JCB-3DX excavator. Link
parameters required for the simulation are normalized with respect to boom link length. It has
been showed that, a non-isotropic excavator can be modified into isotropic one, by changing
the link parameters. Showed that an excavator used for digging or rock breaking applications
may be redesigned to exploit benefits of isotropy. This configuration will help to apply a
uniform force on the object while breaking in any directions. This method not only improves
the energy efficiency but also increases life of end effector of manipulator.

Abstract
This paper presents the solution methods of kinematic analysis of planar mechanisms. The
procedure is to write programs that solve and plot displacement, velocity, and acceleration of
the desired point on the coupler link. The method is based on points of intersection of two
circles and points of intersection of the circle on a line. The analysis is performed by using
built-in functions and graphics tools of MATLAB software that is optimized for accurate
solutions. The results of the program are compared with analytical and graphical methods. The
examples of four, six and eight bar mechanisms are presented here. The possibility of extending
the method to mechanisms having different linkage combinations is outlined. The advantage
of this method is the simplicity in implementation and a clear understanding of the behavior of
the linkage mechanism

Abstract
The quest for an engine to increase mileage has started before many years. Many automobile
manufacturing industries are doing more research on how to increase mileage of vehicle. In
today’s automobile competition every manufacturer is focusing on weight reduction of vehicle
by considering this objective, this paper focuses on providing alternative material. The
objective of the present work is to optimize weight reduction to increase mileage of vehicle.
Saving grams at different parts in a car helps us in saving some kilograms at the end of the
design. The focus of this paper is on weight reduction of Crankshaft. Crankshaft is one of the
essential components for the effective and precise working of Internal Combustion engine with
the complex geometry; which converts the reciprocating displacement of the piston to a rotary
motion. Here a thorough study is made for single cylinder four stroke petrol engine crank shaft
for selection of best suitable material. The Design of crankshaft is made as per the calculated
specification by using Solid edge V19 software. This model will be converted to Initial Graphic
Exchange Specification (IGES). Finite element analysis (FEA) is performed in ANSYS
software to obtain the variation of stress magnitude at critical locations of crankshaft by
applying boundary conditions as the sides fixed and pressure spectrum is applied in the middle
of crankpin. Then, the Static simulation has to be conducted on the crankshaft with three
different materials Structural steel, 4340 Alloy Steel and 300M VAC-ARC steel which are used
in our project work. Analysis results are compared with theoretical results of von-misses which
limits to validate the model.
However, as the groundwork of study and the analysis are the same for multi-cylinder engines,
the methods used could be altered and implemented for crankshafts from alternative varieties
of engines. The geometrical changes in the size of the crankshaft along with a change in
material of the crankshaft are considered as a potential source for reducing the weight and cost
of the crankshaft.
Keywords: Crankshaft, Finite Element Analysis, Stress Analysis.

Abstract
There are different control systems for a gear change control apparatus for an automobile and
there are some controlling methods for that gear shifting mechanisms. The rotational output of
the engine is transmitted to the drive wheels via clutch and gear box. When the gear is shifted
up, the speed ratio will vary as well as the load capacity. The rotational output will increase as
per the gear shifted. The rotational speed will decrease when the gear is shifted down. In this
work, we have two electro magnets which are coupled to the ends of the gear rod. Also, this
will be actuated by two buttons which will be placed near the left hand. The electric supply is
given by the separate battery to the coils to actuate the electro-magnets. When the coils are
energized, the magnetic field pulls down the coil to change the gear ratios as per the
requirements. This avoids confusion to the rider and also gives comfortable ride while driving
through hilly region. This mechanism also helps for the physically challenged persons, who
have to shift the gear ratio by hands. These are also meant for the beginners and women who
have fear of riding the bikes.

Abstract
As the need of power requirements are increasing by many folds, more studies on renewable
energy sources are being made and innovative methods have been thought of to generate
electricity by unconventional methods. In this regard an attempt is made by us in harvesting
energy absorbed during the vehicle movements over speed bumpers on roads.
This work concentrates on extracting kinetic energy of vehicles that run on the streets and to
generate power from the same. The arrangement consists of a flexible curved portion
resembling a road hump that can be conveniently installed beneath the hump. As the vehicle
movements exert pressure, the same is utilized to increase the pressure of air contained in a
cylinder. The high-pressure air is then made to impinge on turbine blades with a kinetic energy
when passes through a nozzle. This develops mechanical rotational energy which in turn can
be converted in to electrical energy.
The performance tests conducted after the installation has shown that power developed and
thereby stored in battery is sufficient to run electrical appliances used for domestic purposes.
The developed system is one of the innovative methods of power generation as producing high
pressure air needs no fuel and power generation is possible out of energy which otherwise
would go as waste.

Abstract
Cashew is one of the main potential fruit, in which both the fruit and cashew nut are useful.
Traditional method of cashew seed separation from the cashew apple is time consuming and it
requires human power. Cashew seed separator machine was designed and fabricated to easy
the work of farmer. At present, these cashew apples are either used as a fertilizer to the cashew
plant or thrown away as garbage. This project aims at reducing the human labor and time
involved in the traditional way. In a short duration of time the machine can convert large
quantity of raw materials into acceptable final products. The machine is manufactured from
locally available materials and assembled and maintained at a relatively low cost. This
mechanism is connected to the two flat plate one is fixed and other is movable. These movable
plates which is connected to the rack and pinion mechanism moves to and fro motion. At that
time knife edge separates the cashew nut from cashew apple. At the bottom of movable plate
collects the cashew nuts and top surface of the fixed plate collects the cashew apple. So, in this
machine we can perform the operation with less time & reduced man power also cashew fruit
is not damaged. The separated fruit is used as fodder for cattle.

Abstract
In older days filling and packing was done manually, a person had to weigh the product using
some means like weigh balance and then fill it to a bag and then pack it. This takes lots of
labour and time is the key factor in the mass production as well as in batch production. To
reduce the man power in packing field & to increase the productivity this concept has been
developed as a dehusked areca nut bagging and packing machine. Compare to other type of
packing machines available in the market are costlier so we designed a machine that can
perform both filling and packing operations with low cost. It consists of, frame, joints, bearing,
stitching machine etc. This machine is basically designed for packing of dehusked areca nut.
With the help of this machine we can pack the dehusked areca nut easily by consuming less
time and also human effort. Generally, we can see different packing machine in market for
various application but they are not economical in the market. In this setup dehusked areca nut
is filled in bucket using pulling the machine forward. Hooper is the container in which
dehusked areca nut is collected. Areca nut is then directly filled to the bag through the Hooper
which fills the areca to the bag until the required weight is achieved for pre-defined weight.
Then the series of bag is packed one by one using packing machine. So, in this machine we can
perform both bagging & packing operations simultaneously so that reduce man power used for
the process also less time consumable as compare to manual processes.

Abstract
The existing single screw press expeller can process only 25 – 30 kg of Pongamiapinnata seeds
per hour in three or more passes, with low oil yield of about 18 percent. The increase in
demands cannot be met by a machine with this low yield. Hence, this project was aimed to
design and develop an oil expeller which meets the increased demand by increasing the
productivity of the expeller. In response to the defined limitations of existing technology,
various concepts were generated such as flourmill, sequential type, reverse worm and twin
screw. Worm concept and results were obtained with increasing yield but also with
increasing retention time. Depending on the various deciding factors, the concept was
screened for the further development. Preliminary experiments on Twin Screw extruder were
carried out to understand various difficulties in oil expulsion and conclusions drawn from these
experiments led to the design of twin screw oil expeller. By considering various factors such
as throughput, power requirements and material selection, the detailed design of machine is
started. It includes twin screw shaft designs, Barrel designs the project objective, and twin-
screw concept was selected.

Abstract
Automated floor cleaning machines are commonly used in developed countries because of high
cost of labour, time, efforts, and affordability. The concept is not popular in developing or
emerging countries. Reasons for non-popularity are cost of machine and operational charges in
terms of power tariffs. In India, especially in summer, there is power crisis and most of the
floors cleaning machines are not used effectively, due to this problem, particularly in
commercial applications. Also, with the advancement of technology, automated floor cleaning
machines are getting more attention of researches to make life of mankind comfortable.
Since cleanliness is an important factor, it is very important to maintain public hygiene. In our
project, automated floor cleaning machine is proposed keeping in mind the basic considerations
of low cost and easier to handle.
The floor cleaning machine consists of various components like scrubbing disc, mopping pad,
vacuum pump, relay switches, microcontrollers, circuits, etc. The main focus is on reducing
the cost and making it easy handling with less effort. Also, one other important thing is that
cleaning different types of floors is also important to note since the design of the machine varies
according to complexity of the cleaning requirements.

Fatigue is the progressive, localized, permanent structural change that occurs in materials
subjected to fluctuating stresses and strains that may result in cracks or fracture after a sufficient
number of fluctuations. Fatigue fractures are caused by the simultaneous action of cyclic stress,
tensile stress and plastic strain. If any one of these three is not present, fatigue cracking will
not initiate and propagate. The cyclic stress starts the track; the tensile stress produces crack
growth. Although compressive stress will not cause fatigue, compression load may do so.
In this work, with the help of simple mechanisms a low cycle constant amplitude fatigue testing
machine is designed and fabricated as per ASTM E606 and E467 Standards procedure for
fatigue testing. A repetitive bending load is used for the fatigue testing which is different from
conventional or available fatigue testing machine.
Keywords: Fatigue, Low Cycle, Cyclic Stress & Fatigue Crack

Abstract
It is not feasible for fish owners to leave extra food in their fish’s tank before leaving for an
extended period. This creates the need for a device that can automatically and reliably feed a
fish. The purpose of this work is to design an automated fish feeder for household use. This
was developed first without using the timer and later timer was included in the circuit. The
circuit was tested for the food that will be released by the container for 1 second of vibration.
Then the timer was implemented for how much seconds it should vibrate at a suitable interval
of time. This mechanism includes a battery, timer, solenoid switch, vibrator and wires for the
circuit. Hence it is a cost effective and precise mechanism for the fish feeding hurdles.
Keywords: Stand, motor, battery, timer, solenoid switch.

Abstract
Modelling of a car bumper is done using CATIA V5 R19 and analysis is done in hyper mesh.
Impact analysis is done on the car bumper for the impact force of 200 N. The analysis is carried
on the car bumper for Mild Steel. The density of Mild Steel is much more than aluminium,
carbon fibre epoxy and s2 glass epoxy; thereby the overall weight of car bumper is high. By
observing the Impact Analysis results like stress and displacement, the stress values is very
high for Mild Steel. Factor of Safety measured in impact analysis for Mild Steel is observed to
be very high, higher than the optimum range used in automobile industries. In twisting analysis,
the stress and displacement of the bumper is observed and found that the stress obtained is very
high and thus the factor of safety measured is also high. Thus, from the analysis we can
conclude that the material used for modelling of bumper increases the weight and cost. Though
the material used is safe but is not a favourable material to be used for bumper modelling in
terms of weight and cost. Thus, most of the automobile industries use a combination of
Polycarbonate (PC) and Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS) called PC/ABS for modelling
most of the parts of the automobile.

Abstract
Solar energy is fast becoming a very important means of renewable energy resource. With solar
tracking, it will become possible to generate more energy since the solar panel can maintain a
perpendicular profile to the rays of the sun. In This paper the main objective is to design of
solar tracking system that has single axis of freedom. Wind Anemometer is used to protect
solar panel from wind blowing at a speed of 60kmph and night LDR sensors to stop rotation
during night. The control circuit is based on a PIC Microcontroller PIC18F46K22. It is
programmed base on time to actuating the stepper motor to position the solar panel.
The solar panel is positioned where it is able to receive maximum light. As compared to other
motors, the stepper motors are able to maintain their torque at high speed. They are also more
efficient with efficiencies in the range of 80-90%. Stepper can supply roughly twice their rated
torque for short periods. They are also quiet and do not vibrate or suffer resonance issues. And
can rotate in both clockwise and anti-clockwise direction. Performance and characteristics of
solar panels are analysed experimentally. It is cheaper, less complex and still achieves the
required efficiency. We use in terms of costs and whether or not the system is supposed to be
implemented by those that use solar panels, the system is viable. The increase in power is
considerable and therefore worth the small increase in cost. Maintenance costs are not likely to
be high.

Abstract
Footstep air conditioning system works as an alternative to regular air conditioning system.
Here we use the kinetic energy generated by a person’s body weight to compress the
compression spring. This process compresses and rises the temperature of the intake air. The
compressed air is then stored in a storage tank. A flow control valve prevents the back flow of
the air to the piston-cylinder arrangement. Further, the air is passed through the chiller for heat
exchange process. Here, water is used as a coolant. To maintain the coolant temperature a
peltier plate is used to constantly remove the excess heat with the help of a heat sink (cooling
fan with fins). In the heat exchanger, the heat from the air is transferred to the coolant without
coming in direct contact with each other. The coolant is re-circulated while the required cool
air is sent out of the heat exchanger.
Foot-step air conditioning system consumes less electrical energy when compared to regular
air conditioning system.

Abstract
The main aim of the project is to design a weld fixture for carrying out welding of Gas bottle
mounting flanges to the shell sub assembly of GSLV MK III propellant tank”. The project work
deals with the design, realization of the welding fixture and implementing it in the actual flight
hardware. The tank is made up of AA 2219 material and the process employed for joining of
Gas bottle mounting flange to the shell is double pass pulsed DCSP TIG welding process. For
this purpose, an exclusive fixture is to be designed which consists of weld back-up, clamping
mechanism and purging system etc. During design of weld fixture other aspects such as
clamping & unloading mechanisms, shrinkage, heat sink effects etc. are also to be considered
to obtaining a sound weld. The fixture design should be of compact and simple in configuration.
It shall also include features such as easy locating, rigid clamping in the correct position to
achieve minimum weld mismatch and distortions. Achieving above requirements over a large
diameter of about 4m class is practically difficult without a proper fixture in place.

Abstract
Fixtures play an important role within many manufacturing processes. They accurately locate
and secure a workpiece during machining such that the part can be manufactured to design
specifications. Thus, fixtures have a direct effect upon machining quality, productivity, and the
cost of products. The present paper explores the design and development of hydraulic fixture
for real industrial component. The operations to be performed are rough and finish milling of
flange, drilling, reaming & spot facing on VMC. In existing design, the fixture set up is done
manually, so the objective of the research is to replace with hydraulic fixture to save time for
loading and unloading of component. The evaluated fixture uses hydraulic vertical swing
clamps for holding the work piece driven by hydraulic power pack. Thus, the new fixture
achieves automatic and simultaneous clamping of parts.

Abstract
The main aim of the project is to design a windmill that operates without generator and ball
bearings and to get maximum power output. The use of wind energy for energy generation is
one of the oldest methods for harnessing renewable energy. Use of renewable energy is an
essential ingredient of socio-economic development and economic growth. A vertical axis
wind turbine (VAWT) is introduced by magnetic levitation technology to optimize the
performance. The system utilizes nature of permanent magnet as a replacement for ball
bearings to levitate the turbine component and thus minimize energy losses while rotating,
which is the major problem that furthermore, the system can be suited by conventional wind
turbine. The Maglev Wind Turbine is expected to bring wind power technology to the next
level. Furthermore, the system can be suited in use for more rural and urban areas of low air
speed regions. The selection of magnet materials in the design of wind turbine system will be
discussed. A model of wind turbine is built to perform several tests such as starting speed,
rotational speed at constant wind speed, and time taken to stop rotation completely. The results
obtained will be compared with the model of conventional wind turbine. Power will then be
generated with an axial flux generator, which incorporates the use of permanent magnets and
a set of coils.

Abstract
A turbojet engine is an engine that accelerates a fluid into its surrounding environment to form
a fast-moving jet. The reaction felt by the engine to this explosion is the thrust force, which
acts in the opposite direction to the jet. A turbojet engine is an assemblage of five important
components with a compressor coupled to a turbine, combustion chamber, diffuser, nozzle and
hydrostatic bearing. All the components when assembled together form what is called as a
turbojet engine. The purpose of this project is to analyse the various aspects of a jet engine like
thrust, efficiency, and overall performance when propelled by alternative fuels and the various
design aspects of the model which effect on the performance. For this purpose, a working
model of a turbojet engine is built using an automotive turbocharger which serves as an
integrated turbine and compressor assembly and other components like the combustion
chamber, nozzle and ignition system are fabricated and the final model is used to analyse the
different aspects mentioned above and results are formulated. Our results indicate that rotor
inlet, equivalence ratio, and combustion chamber design are a significant variable in most of
the relationships. Design of combustion chamber and the method of entering the primary and
secondary air have an essential role in the completed combustion process and the jet engine
speed. Using bio gas for completely propelling the engine will not be feasible and hence a
mixture of LPG and bio gas were introduced and the results are formulated for the output like
thrust, efficiency and overall performance.

Abstract
For sorting object in industry optical sorting is very much convenient. Colour and size are the
most important features for accurate classification and sorting of product which can be done
by using camera (machine learning) and analyzing their pictures. An automated sorting
machine is a device which takes image of an object, analyze it and assert them into a different
belt conveyor. When object moves from conveyor belt to rotating disc, a pre fixed camera acts
as input device and will send signal to processing unit where it acts as the controller which will
give command to the pneumatic actuator to do the action. Depending on the image, they are
placed on the respective carriers automatically where these carriers dispatch them to the
corresponding destinations. This gives a provision to reduce the manual effort and hence
human error by replacing the conventional methods of sorting in areas involving hectic sorting.
The system comes into play in airports and other industrial distribution centres where the
products or commodities have to be sorted into batches in order to take them to their respective
destination.

Abstract
The objective of this study is to design and develop a robot which can climb the arecanut tree
and spray pesticide, thereby reducing the time and labour required for the same job. It is
required to climb the tree a minimum of five times a year for a successful harvest i.e., twice for
the preventive spray against fungal disease, and thrice to harvest the arecanut. At present, the
availability of the safe device in the market for harvesting the arecanut is found to be scant.
Thus, there is a need to develop and fabricate a machine to address both efficiency and safety
during the cutting process of the arecanut. The design of the machine has to be simple enough
for the villagers to operate, yet work efficiently to appeal.
The present study aims to design and fabricate a remote controlled arecanut plucking machine.
The tree climber machine consists of two rings, two pulleys, rollers, rope, spring, cutter,
collector and the main frame. The power from the motor is transmitted by rope and pulley
mechanism. The machine is placed around the tree and clamped to it by using two rings.
Rotation of the motor allows the rope to wind and rewind on to the drum. In order to make the
design of the machine simple, no additional mechanisms are including for cutting process.
Further, the cutting process is carried out in conjunction with the movement of the machine.

Abstract
Innovation in the field of industrial automation is a new challenge in today’s fast-growing
automation technology. Design of sorting methods of products in an industry is a tedious
industrial process, which is generally carried out manually. In order to sort objects, we need to
be able to gauge the size of the object. Continuous manual sorting creates quality consistency
issues. Segregation of objects can be based on different characteristics like weight, colour, size,
and shape, weighing and then separating. In this project, the proposed conveyor belt system is
intelligent in detection and sortation. The conveyor system acts as a normal one but has the
intelligence to sort through objects based on their height. It uses an IR sensor which detects the
object’s height and directs the microcontroller to sort the object into the appropriate bin. The
conveyor belt is made ‘smart’ by using an IR sensor to detect whether an object is placed on it
or not. Accordingly, the conveyor belt starts only if an object is placed on it thereby, helping
to conserve electricity. This ‘smart’ feature in the conveyor system helps to reduce the
manufacturing overhead of the industry. The automation-based system contains efficient
sensors for sensing the objects based on height, thereby, helping the industry immensely in
decreasing the cycle time of a product.

Abstract
This is an era of automation where it is broadly defined as replacement of manual effort by
mechanical power in all degrees of automation. The operation remains an essential part of the
system although with changing demands on physical input as the degree of mechanization is
increased. The existing pick and place are used to perform pick and place the components on
the assembly line. These components are similar in their shape and size. In this project we are
going to design pick and place pneumatic system to handle different shape and size and also
irregular objects. The existing device had a greater number of actuators and mechanisms are
used to perform the pick and place operation. Hence, it’s become so expensive. Our material
handling system consists of four cylinders, all are of double acting the cylinder is used to
actuate rack and pinion assembly, piston rod of cylinder is connected to rack, which is meshed
with the pinion. By operating the cylinder1, rack and pinion turns the whole assembly for 260
degree. By varying the length of the rack, the turning angle can be altered. Vertical cylinder is
used to increase the height of the setup. The height is limited to piston rod length. Horizontal
cylinder is used to increase the arm length, the working area of the arm is limited to length of
the piston rod length. Gripper cylinder is used to actuate the gripper. Our material handling
system consists of four pneumatic actuators and single rack and pinion mechanism, within this
we can able to achieve the existing results. While comparing to the existing robot cost, it is
very less. Finally, our pick and place robot can able to perform the pick and place the irregular
components on 260 degree within the workspace.

Abstract
During the recent years, World has witnessed many oil spillage tragedies in the oceans and
made negative effect on the environment. Apart from this, sometimes Oil is getting spillage as
the result of chronic and careless which is used in the oil industries on oil products. It is
estimated nearly 706 million gallons of waste oil enters into the ocean every year; and more
than half is from land drainage and waste disposal. This made ever lasting damage to aquatic
life. In order to separate the oil from oil water mixture, various type of oil skimmers are used
in the industries. The intension of this project is to design and conduct an performance study
on belt type oil skimmer. The belt skims the oil from water which can be wiped out, and which
is collected in the tank. The collected oil can be reused for many purposes. In these kinds of
skimmers different types of belts are used.
Performance and efficiency of these systems mainly depends on the type of belt, belt material
and speed of belt play a major role. So it is important to study and analyze the performance of
various types of belts in order to select proper belt for better performance. The outcome of this
project increased our understanding of type of belts, material of belt and speed of belts on rate
of oil collection.

Abstract
Suspension is divided into non-independent suspension and independent suspension. These
two kinds of suspensions are widely used in general vehicles. General vehicles can travel on
urban roads and highways. But they cannot travel on rough roads or extremely uneven roads.
The rocker-bogie suspension is proposed to solve that problem. Automated solar grass cutter
is an automated grass cutting robotic vehicle powered by solar energy that also avoids obstacles
and is capable of moving in ups and downs. We also use a solar panel to charge the battery so
that there is no need of charging it externally. Manual effort is completely deducted. The
proposed system design eliminates the human efforts in grass cutting field such as lawn. The
solar grass cutting machine is a robotic vehicle powered by solar energy that also avoids
obstacles.

Abstract
Ultrasonic Dental Scalers are used by professional Dentists and Hygienists to remove the tartar
or the calculus from the teeth to prevent the subsequent decay of teeth and gums by stopping
the unwanted microbial activities inside the oral cavity, In this Device the Scaler (Hand piece)
which can also be called as tool holder has a strong impact on both the operator (Dentist) and
the patient. One study from the University of Iowa found 93% of dental hygienists reported at
least one musculoskeletal disorder in the past years and they have one of the highest incidences
of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (Anton, 2002), To help prevent or lesser the number of these
problems better dental tool designs are needed. This study will explore a process for designing
the Ultrasonic Dental Scaler Hand piece that considers FDA and ADA guidelines with better
ergonomics based on real time survey.
Keywords: Ultrasonic Dental Scaler (Hand piece), Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, FDA and ADA

Abstract
Automobile safety is increasing trend as the vehicles are getting more powerful and faster than
before. Still accidents are being taking place. There are several measures taken for the
prevention of accidents by using sensors to seat belts and to air bags as well. Here we stepped
for the safety of passengers and to avoid the car damage loss. Here in our case we will be
having a front and a rare bumper in our system and a twin separator accumulator is situated in
the middle of the vehicle. The front and rear bumper connected to the piston and cylinder
arrangement (two on each bumper) and these piston-cylinder (cushioning effect) connected to
an accumulator (twin separator) by connecting Hoses. A vehicle moving, when collides or hits
to an obstacle, the bumper which is connected to the piston rods with a pivot joint will absorb
the impact force by retracting in the piston cylinder. It contains oil and compresses the oil in
the cylinder which is connected to the accumulator through the connecting pipes. This displace
of fluid results in comes out of rear bumper which prevents the huge damage of car from back
side like in case of pileup in foggy weather and the passengers sitting in the vehicle/car can be
saved.

Abstract
Abrasive Jet Machining (AJM) is the process of material removal from a work piece by the
application of a high-speed stream of abrasive particles suspended in a gas medium from a
nozzle. The material removal process is mainly caused by brittle fracture by impingement and
then by erosion. Being a popular technique among the available nontraditional machining
techniques, AJM uses only one type of abrasive powder in its regular design. In the present
work an attempt is made to make use of two abrasive grit materials together to achieve faster
machining rate with accurate contour forming. Miniature working model was developed based
on the available machine setup as the reference. Experimental results showed the minimum
nozzle wear when a mixed abrasive particle was used to complete the machining process.

Abstract
Agriculture is the backbone of our country. The history of agriculture in India dates back to
Indus Valley Civilization Era and even before that in some parts of southern India. Today, India
ranks second worldwide in farm output. Special vehicle or equipment plays a major role in
various fields such as industrial, medical, military applications etc., The special vehicle or
equipment is gradually helping in increasing the productivity in agricultural field. Present
Agricultural equipments are of high cost. Though India is mainly an agricultural country,
farmers are not equipped with the required tools and machinery for agriculture that modern
time demands. Most of the current agricultural machines perform limited number of operations,
or if they do carry out more operation, it comes at a greater price. Hence, we propose to develop
equipment which is push driven, light, cost efficient and does multiple operations such as
fertilizer spreading, sowing seeds and spraying of water and/or pesticide. Also, we propose to
make it detachable so that it can be used according to requirement and can be moved around
easily.
A fertilizer hopper has been provided at the front end which stores the fertilizer, below which
a spreader disc will spread the fertilizer circumferentially as the equipment moves forward. A
Seed Hopper is provided to store the seeds, inside which a gear meters out the seed through a
shaft. The fertilizer hopper is made detachable so that a pesticide tank can be equipped instead.
It is a simple piston - cylinder pesticide-sprayer which pressurizes the pesticide.
Keywords: Agricultural equipment, fertiliser spreader, pesticide/water pumping, seed

Abstract
Blanking is one of the most commonly used sheet metal manufacturing processes in the
industry. Having a good understanding of the fundamentals and science behind this high
deformation shearing process can help to improve the tool life. The HSS Punch tool is used to
punch the 12mm thickness of sheet metal to make a fine blanking component. Various factors
during the operation like, effect of bur formation, Punch-die clearance and tool tip geometry
causes the tool get failure. The interaction between punch, stripper plate and sheet metal of
12mm thickness is first studied experimentally by using different geometry of Punch tools,
fundamental understanding of the behaviour of the components at different loads at high
speeds. By the experimental results, select the best performed tool and that punch tool material
and it is analysed by conducting material testing by reference of its specification. They are
chemical analysis, hardness test, thermal and micro testing. The stress distribution is
determined by using Ansys simulation for both punch tool and the sheet material. The tool life
of HSS flat punch is calculated theoretically and same is compared with the Ansys simulation
results and determines the safety factor of the tool.

Abstract
Sugarcane is an important cash crop and cultivated between 320N to 320S latitude covering
more than 90 countries of the world. India contributing 19.98% of the total world production
is the second largest producer of sugarcane next to Brazil. In India, it is grown between 700N
to 320N latitude covering large variation in climate, soil-crop spread and productivity. The
major producing states are Uttar Pradesh, Maharashtra, Tamilnadu, Karnataka, and Gujarat.
Use of machinery helps in labour saving and timeliness of operations, reduces drudgery, helps
in improving quality of work, reduces cost of operation and ensures effective utilization of
resources. In India considerable R & D work for design and development of agricultural
implements and machinery for few operations have been developed. However, the adoption of
these implements and machinery have not been up to the desired level. Thus, there is a
considerable mechanization gap, especially in the area of sugarcane planting, intercultural,
plant protection, harvesting and ratoon management. Therefore, it is necessary that
concentrated efforts be made for adoption, development and popularization of sugarcane
machinery for various operations. In this paper different operations of sugarcane cultivation
along with their mechanization are discussed.

Abstract
The increase in demand for refrigeration globally in the field of air-conditioning, food
preservation, medical services, vaccine storages, and for electronic components temperature
control led to the production of more electricity and consequently an increase in the CO2
concentration in the atmosphere which in turn leads to global warming and many climatic
changes. Thermoelectric refrigeration is a new alternative because it can reduce the use of
electricity to produce cooling effect and also meet today’s energy challenges. It uses Peltier
effect to reduce the temperature.

Abstract
Energy is fundamentally the ability to do work. The society come about to be as complex and
modernized as it is due to evolutionary paths taken in energy conversion from one form to
another. The world is however majorly concerned of the utilities to reduce the emission from
electricity generating plants by employing renewable energy and to supply at low cost
electricity to remote areas. Hybrid power systems provide such solutions due to the
employment of renewable energy (RE) that are freely available in nature, readily available and
environmentally friendly reducing greenhouse emissions. The renewable energy sources such
as Wind and Solar are universal and ecological to generate electricity and battery as a back-up
system. The system components and specifications are arrived at after load assessment is done
and the solar insulation and wind speed data are obtained. The micro grid is expected to provide
stable electricity supply to the area throughout the year at minimal cost and be environmentally
friendly. To make solar energy more fruitful, the efficiency of solar array systems must be
maximized. For the efficiency evaluation of PV cells, that has been discussed with particular
attention to the tracking of sun to get maximum intensity of light on the panel surface.

Abstract
This report describes about the wind power and its potential that can be harnessed in the future to meet the current
energy demand. With detailed description of the wind turbine and the wind generator focus has
been given on the interconnection of the generators with the grid and the problems associated
with it. The shape of the blades is changed to helical so that it can rotate continuously at any
direction of wind. Hence the efficiency of the turbine is improved and also the stresses are
minimized. Conclusions were made about the behavior of the wind in urban location.
Thereafter, the helix angle of the blade is changed and the best angle of operation is analysed.
Vertical axis wind turbines (VAWTs) are gradually receiving more and more interest due to
their lower sensitivity to the yawed wind direction. Compared with straight blades VAWT,
blades with a certain helicity show a better aerodynamic performance and less noise emission.
Nowadays computational fluid dynamics technology is frequently applied to VAWTs and
gives results that can reflect real flow phenomena. In this paper, a 2D flow field simulation of
a helical vertical axis wind turbine (HVAWT) with four blades has been carried out by means
of a large eddy simulation (LES). The power output and fluctuation at each azimuthal position
are studied with different tip speed ratio (TSR). The result shows that the variation of angle of
attack (AOA) and blade-wake interaction under different TSR conditions are the two main
reasons for the effects of TSR on power output. Furthermore, in order to understand the
characteristics of the HVAWT along the spanwise direction, the 3D full size flow field has also
been studied by the means of unsteady Reynold Averaged Navier-Stokes (U-RANS) and 3D
effects on the turbine performance can be observed by the spanwise pressure distribution. It
shows that tip vortex near blade tips and second flow in the spanwise direction also play a
major role on the performance of VAWTs.

Abstract
Arecanut is the staple commercial crop of Karnataka having root in 15 districts. But the major
problem the areca agriculturists are facing today is the scarcity of labor. Presently the climbing
and spraying of pesticides to tree is done manually, which requires skilled laborers. This
manual method is a risky job and there have been incidents of accident that has occurred while
climbing the tree; that has led to paralysis and sometimes even death of climbers. There is
scarcity in the availability of skilled laborers. Also, the climbers demand a lot of money, which
is not economical for agriculturists who cultivate the crop in a small-scale level. Thus, an
alternate solution is required to solve the above problems and in this proposed work we propose
an alternate solution. This project solves all the problems regarding the climbing, spraying and
harvesting of arecanut tree, thus developing a safer, reliable and an economical system. Initially
a prototype of the above model was made and was tested. The test was successful and based
on the observations done while testing the prototype, the model is being fabricated.

Abstract
The main objective of the wheel rim is to provide a stable base to fit the tire. Its physical
parameters such as dimensions, shape and size should adequately fit the tire required for a
particular vehicle. Design plays a major role influencing the quality of the product. In this
project the wheel rim is designed using a 3D modeling software called CATIA v5. The
purpose of modeling is to reduce the time taken and risk factor involved in producing
complex 3D models. Later the part design of wheel rim is imported to an analysis
software called ANSYS. ANSYS is generally used to simulate various physical
parameters like forces, pressure acting on the given components. It is also used in
calculation of stresses, deflections and other parameters without human intervention.
Thereby reducing the time spent on mathematical calculations by a human.
In ANSYS, we are particularly performing static analysis on wheel rim by considering
four different materials namely Aluminium alloy 6061, Magnesium alloy, Steel 1008 and
Carbon Fibre. Their relative performances have been studied and observed. By
comparing the relative results of all the materials in static analysis, we would suggest
Carbon Fibre as the best material for the design of the wheel rim.

Abstract
The cycle time for conventional manufacturing process of ALCO barrel is very high. This is
due to high non-machining time owing to a greater number of machines involved. An attempt
is made to reduce the cycle time for ALCO barrel and to establish the shoulder turning
operation. The solution is provided in the form of CNC Hard Part Turning Machine which is
capable of accommodating all the machining process in a single machine.
It is found that in CNC machine the shoulder dimension of the machined component is not
within tolerance leading to high rejection rate. After study and analysis, a mandrel with a
locking mechanism is designed to position the barrel accurately with a reference to maintain
the shoulder dimension within tolerance. The end stopper of the CNC machine is also
redesigned for the purpose of accommodation of the mandrel. The results indicated substantial
decrease in the production time of ALCO barrel and also reduction in rejection rate of the
ALCO barrel manufactured in CNC hard part turning machine.
