 Abstract

Biogas is a crucial component of both the rural new energy development and Sustainable development of the Country. Most of the people are willing to generate the methane gas by organic wastage from home. This project describes the Gas detector device using Internet of Things. It has a PIC Microcontroller with Gas and Temperature sensors. This detector device can also suitable for gas leakage problems and Underground mines. Ambient gas detection and measurement had become essential in diverse fields and applications, from preventing accidents, avoiding equipment malfunction, to air pollution warnings and granting the correct gas mixture to patients in hospitals. Gas leakage can reach large proportions, affecting entire neighbourhoods or even cities, causing enormous environmental impacts. This project elaborates about the gas detector and automatic alarming system using Internet of Things.

 Abstract

Cement and fine aggregates are the major materials used in construction. Increase in the demand for these materials lead to the skyrocketing price of the construction. Due to this, the lower and middle income families are not able to build their own houses. There were studies about the research institutions are looking for alternatives can be used for construction to reduce the construction cost. In this regard an attempt has made to know the utilization of waste materials. In this project, Rice Husk Ash and Waste Foundry Sand were used in concrete for the replacement of cement and fine aggregate respectively. The most expensive concrete material is the binder (cement) and if such all-important expensive material is partially replaced with more natural, local and affordable material like RHA will not only take care of waste management but will also reduce the problem of high cost of concrete and housing. In this project, Rice Husk Ash which is taken from a brick kiln was used after grinding in a ball mill. Rice husk ash contains 90-95% SiO2, 1-3% K2O and < 5% un burnt carbon. Foundry sand is high quality silica sand with uniform physical characteristics. It is a By-product of ferrous and nonferrous steel industries, where sand has been used as a molding material. After the multiple usages the foundry sand it is used as land filling material. This experimental investigation was performed to evaluate the strength properties of concrete in which cement and fine aggregates were partially replaced with Rice Husk Ash and Waste Foundry Sand. Compression test, Split Tensile test, Flexural strength test and workability tests were conducted at the age of 28,56 and 90 days by replacement of river sand with different percentages (0%,10%,20%,30%,40%,50%and 60%) and also with 10% incorporating with rice husk ash. Compressive strength test was carried out on cement mortar cubes to know the optimum percentage of rice husk ash. The results indicate effective use of rice husk ash and waste foundry sand as partial replacement of cement and fine aggregate. However, the percentage of rice husk ash is limited to 10% and waste foundry sand is up to 40%. After these limitations the strength started decreasing. And also the concrete incorporating with rice husk ash showed better workability than plain concrete with inclusion of waste foundry sand.

 Abstract

ABSTRACT Population is an asset of a country's economic development which is growing rapidly.The earth is increasing population by 90 million per year and get we till we have 5.9 billion people left to feed and to give shelter (Mitchel-1998). Along with the increase in the population, there are also more people on the earth who are living longer lives.The global population boom has coincided with the improvement of health, and of agro-productivity, around the world.On average, the population today lives longer,eats bitter, produces more and consumes more than of any other time period in past (Ederstadt -1995). Agriculture feeds people, but will it be able to feed the expanding global population, especially with its exponential increase. The study area,East Champaran covers an area of 3968.1sq.km with 4.2% area and population of 50,82,868 with 4.90%(2011) of Bihar respectively.The district is predominantly stretched along the Gandak basin which provides an ideal agricultural ground for better agro-produce and livelihood to the larger population by using agro-biotechnology. Minimizing agricultural areas though intensification would seem like a great idea for pressurising more land. Technology has been viable part of higher productivity on Agriculture. Innovations and implementation of agro-tools genetically modified seeds, modern agro-techniques make mechanised farming for raising yields sustainably. But modern technology is the key to ensuring sustainable agriculture for increasing population. Unfortunately, yields have been decreasing while population continues to grow. Along with, rapid population growth, there is a increasing demand for a more calorie filled diet specially with the unprecedented rise in affluence in the district. Hence the study is completely based on analytical methodas as well as collection of primary and secondary data which explains the impact of population growth over agricultural development of local produce in the study area. The data based information has been collected through the field survey under the study area which replete with appropriate statistical and cartographical method coupled with maps, diagrams, and tables which aptly justify the methodology. This, it can be said that the population growth over agro-development is perfectly visible on the socio-economic life of the people and opened a new vistas for future generation. Undoughtedly, the rapid population growth affects the acceleration and upliftment of agro-development.

 Abstract

The Communicate Bond Belong (CBB) theory states that much everyday talk occurs in episodes. CBB theory specifies qualifying criteria for an episode. Frequently undertaking communication episodes is seen as realizing relational satisfaction. Social curiosity is a type of episode. The first paper in the series investigated self-disclosure as a communication episode. (Surana, 2020A) In this second of the three papers comprising the study, I report findings for the extent to which everyday talk occurs in episodes (Surana, 2020A) and then investigate the extent to which social curiosity is an episode of social interaction. The study is conducted using mixed methods; data collection adopts diary record as the tool; and, data analysis is based on frequencies and interpretation. (Surana, 2020A)

 Abstract

Today�s business is characterized by dynamism in business environments (Internal and External) which are expected to lead to increased competition among the stakeholders. Business managers are expected to plan more efficient and effective to achieve set objectives. The objective of this paper is to contribute to the existing research in the field of strategic by determining the nexus between strategic management and firm performance using five (5) selected manufacturing companies in Lagos Nigeria. Data were collected using questionnaire design in simple English Language and analyzed using simple percentage and non parametric statistical tool of Chi-square (?2). It was discovered that companies set up their own strategic management process among the top echelon of each of the companies used as a case study. It is therefore recommended that companies whether small, medium or large-scale company should set fund aside for research and development, in other to fine tune required strategic plans and incorporate strategic management in business studies in business schools to serve as a research institute and incubation center for business strategy.

 Abstract

Automated and smart meters are devices that are able to monitor the energy consumption of electricity consumers in real-time. They are considered key technological enablers of the smart grid, as the real-time consumption data that they can collect and enable new sophisticated billing schemes. It could facilitate more efficient power distribution system operation and could give rise to a variety of value-added services. At the same time, the energy consumption data that the meters collect are sensitive consumer information. Thus privacy is a key concern and is a major inhibitor of real-time data collection in practice. In this article, we review the different uses of metering data in the smart grid and the related privacy legislation. This system will alert the user through the user regarding the payment. If the user doesn�t pay the bill, the system will automatically trip the system.
