Design & development of a prototype of the layman’s air-cooler

This paper deals with the design & development of a prototype of the layman’s air-cooler. In summer seasons, we require cold water and cooled air because of scorching temperature. Modern appliances fulfilling these requirements need high power and are costly. So, we propose modified simple air cooler, which is portable and is low maintenance machine. Air cooler is one of the major consumers of electrical energy in many parts of the world today. Air cooler causes energy shortage for example in China. The demand can be expected to increase because of changing working times increased comfort expectations and global warming. Air conditioners are pretty expensive themselves and adding to them their power bills makes it out of reach for most common man. So opting for an air cooler is probably one solution which not only is cheaper as an appliance, but also uses lower power than conventional air conditioners.

LA TIERRA : Soil Moisture Detector With Automatic water Irrigation

In this paper, we present a brief conceptual development of the soil moisture detector with automatic water irrigation system. The oxygen that is provided by proper watering is essential for containergrown plants and trees. Because of inappropriate scheduling or inadequate watering, many people are confused of how to take good care of pricey plants or trees like bonsai. In this case, a computerised system that can recognise when to water plants properly could be useful. In this study, an Arduino microcontroller board with an ATMEGA 328p chip was employed. It has a few sensors built in to monitor lighting, soil moisture, and water level in the plant's pot. The Arduino has been programmed to obtain the sensor's norm, compare it to our predetermined standard threshold, and turn on or off the water pump depending on the needs of the plants. If there is a problem supplying water from the source, the owner will be notified via a message alert system that has been set up. The work presented here is the mini-project work of the 2nd sem students of electronics & communication engineering department of dayananda sagar college of engg., bangalore.

Engineering nanoparticle communication in living systems by stigmergy: An application to enhance antitumor therapy in triple-negative breast cancer

The engineering of nanoparticle communication has gained growing attention in the last years, however, efforts to communicate nanoparticles with living systems is still a barely studied emerging topic. Here, we explore a nanoparticle cooperation strategy that involves nanoparticle-cell-nanoparticle communication in vivo through stigmergy (a strategy in which nanodevices communicate by modifying the environment). First, mesoporous silica nanoparticles loaded with the senescence inductor palbociclib and coated with a heterobifunctional poly(ethylene glycol) that binds covalently to a MUC1-binding aptamer (NP(palbo)PEG-MUC1), is designed to specifically deliver the pro-senescent drug palbociclib in MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells. Once the first nanoparticle modifies the environment due to the induction of senescence, a second community of nanoparticles, loaded with the senolytic navitoclax and coated with a hexa-oligo-saccharide (NP(nav)-Gal), releases its cargo to eliminate tumor senescent cells selectively. The targeted therapy through stigmergy communication is tested in vitro, and in vivo, where delays tumor growth and reduces metastases in a mouse model of human triple-negative breast cancer while minimizing undesired drugs side effects.

Radio antipodal number of honeycomb derived networks

The communication in a wireless network mainly depends on the frequencies or channels assigned to them. The channels must be assigned to all the transmitters in the network without interference for effective communication. This problem is said to be a channel (frequency) assignment problem (CAP). With the limited availability of channels, CAP has become a challenging problem. This problem is modeled as a graph, where each transmitter is represented by a vertex, and two vertices are adjacent when their corresponding transmitters are close. The labelling technique in graph theory has played an important role in solving CAP, thereby the time and cost will be saved. In radio antipodal labeling, the channels were reused again for the antipodal vertices. It will reduce the usage of the number of channels, with minimum interference. Hence it is a better labeling compared to other labelings. It is a mapping tau from the vertex set of a graph T to the set of natural numbers such that the condition d(alpha ,eta )+mid tau (alpha )-tau (eta )mid ge diam(T), is satisfied. The span of the antipodal labeling tau is the maximum label allotted in a graph and is given by sp(tau )=max{mid tau (alpha )-tau (eta )mid :alpha ,eta in V(T)}. The lowest value of all the spans of the antipodal labeling of graph T is said to be radio antipodal number. It is denoted by an(T). The value of the minimum span gives the bandwidth or spectrum of the channels. The honeycomb network plays an important role in communication engineering because of its structure. In this paper, the bounds of the antipodal number of honeycomb derived networks—triangular and rhombic honeycomb were obtained and represented graphically. These bounds give the optimum number of channels (bandwidth) needed for these honeycomb derived networks for effective communication without interference.

Revisiting digital twins: Origins, fundamentals, and practices

The digital twins (DT) has quickly become a hot topic since it was proposed. It appears in all kinds of commercial propaganda and is widely quoted by academic circles. However, the term DT has misstatements and is misused in business and academics. This study revisits DT and defines it to be a more advanced system/product/service modeling and simulation environment that combines most modern information communication technologies (ICTs) and engineering mechanism digitization and characterized by system/product/service life cycle management, physically geometric visualization, real-time sensing and measurement of system operating conditions, predictability of system performance/safety/lifespan, and complete engineering mechanisms-based simulations. The idea of DT originates from modeling and simulation practices of engineering informatization, including virtual manufacturing (VM), model predictive control, and building information modeling (BIM). On the basis of the two-element VM model, we propose a three-element model to represent DT. DT does not have its unique technical characteristics. The existing practices of DT are extensions of the engineering informatization embracing modern ICTs. These insights clarify the origin of DT and its technical essentials.

Research on anchor damage and protection of three-core composite submarine cable considering impact angle

Submarine cables are important equipment in many power engineering and communication engineering projects. However, power transmission and signal transmission is threatened by anchors hitting submarine cables. Due to the nature of the helical structure of the cable, different angles of impact have different effects on submarine cable damage. In this paper, a three-dimensional dynamic response analysis model, “ship anchor – three-core composite submarine cable – soil”, is developed based on ABAQUS to study how the impact angle of ship anchors influences the damage to submarine cables. It explores the damage to cables struck by anchors of different weights and at different speeds. The longitudinal compression rates of conductors and the optical fibre units of submarine cables at different burial depths are obtained and advice for the protection of cables is provided. The results show that anchor speed has a greater impact on cable damage than anchor mass. The impact angle on cable conductors and the optical fibre units decreases as the depth of burial increases. A burial depth greater than 1.9 times the cable diameter provides a protective effect on the submarine cable.
