Geospatial Technology in Quantifying Seasonal Availability of Water Stored In Salaulim Reservoir Salauli, Goa State, India

Quantification of available surface water is one among the most important aspects of Water budgeting in the rapid changing climate and erratic rainfall conditions prevailing in India amidst the rapid human developmental activities. Though conventional methods are being employed for periodical estimation of existing surface water from water bodies, there is no standard Geospatial technology based simple methodology available for anytime-use by the planners and administrators. This research paper presents one such simple and accurate methodology for quantification of surface water from reservoirs and tanks using Remote Sensing and GIS techniques. The results obtained in this study have been evaluated with the published data. Thus, it forms a basic model to further strengthen and make it useful for the administrators in water resource budgeting and proper distribution of it for sustainable development of the society.

Study on Strength Characteristics of Concrete by Replacing Sand Partially with the Foundry Sand

In the Present study we are investigating on mechanical (compressive strength and split tensile test) and durability (Resistance to sulfate attack test) properties of concrete by adding waste foundry sand as partial replacement of sand in various percentages, 10%, 20%,30% and 100% respectively. This report demonstrates the possibilities of using waste foundry sand as partial replacement of sand in concrete Tests were performed for compressive strength, split tensile strength and sulfate resistant test for all replacement levels of waste foundry sand at different curing periods (7-days & 28 days).

A Method for Webpage Quality Improvement Using Improved Grey Wolf Optimization (IGWO) Based Extreme Learning Machine

In emerging websites, there is a need to measure and evaluate the websites quality and to make it better understanding. Several metrics based on the dimensions of the criteria are content quality, organization quality, design quality and user-friendly quality. These factors depend upon the word count, page size, average link text count and so on. This research investigates an Improved Grey Wolf Optimization (IGWO) and Extreme Learning Machine (ELM) is proposed to correspond with quality related items. The proposed approach IGWO is compared to verify the performance of Grey Wolf Optimization (GWO) Support Vector Machine (SVM) model, traditional Extreme Learning Machine (ELM) and Ivory based models are made to test the webpages. The performance metrics captured in IGWO based ELM model can be used to predict the website designs are good or bad. The simulation results have proven the superiority of the proposed method over the other competitive counterparts.

A Distributed Approach for the Development of the DBSCAN Clustering

Clustering plays an outstanding role in data mining applications such as scientific data exploration, information retrieval and text mining, web analysis, bioinformatics, and many others DBSCAN (Density-Based Spatial Clustering of Applications with Noise) is a density-based clustering algorithm. The key idea of the DBSCAN algorithm is that for each data point in a cluster, the neighborhood within a given radius has to contain at least a minimum number of points. We have proposed improved evenhanded workload allocation using hierarchical (Tree-Based) approach for constructing of data cluster

Analysis of Readiness Level and Comparison in Automobile Industry of Gujarat by Identification of Critical Success Factors

The main purpose of this study is to identify the critical success factors within automobile industry of Gujarat. This study helps to find out the whether the organizations have the foundation to implement the lean tools and techniques. A survey is conducted within the automobile parts manufacturing organization of the Gujarat. The present study illustrates the reliability of the data obtained from the survey and analysis of the available data in terms of the critical success factors within the organization. Ultimately this study illustrates the present scenario of the awareness of the lean manufacturing in the organization as well as the primary tool needed to be considered while initiating the lean manufacturing implementation. Lean manufacturing offers waste-reducing strategies like the elimination and identification of the waste and also enhancing their productivity and competitiveness.

Performance Analysis of Air Preheater in 210MW Thermal Power Station

The efficiency of the boiler in a thermal power station is greatly depending on the utilization of waste heat in the flue gas by air preheater and economizer. The increasing in the efficiency of the boiler can be achieved by increasing the performance of air preheater and economizer. Enhancing heat transfer rate by changing the profile of air preheater will lead to increasing the performance of the air preheater and economizer. The changing profile and increasing heat transfer area will increase the heat transfer rate. In 210MW Mettur thermal power station notched flat profile is used as heat transfer area in air preheater segment. In order to improve heat transfer rate, the notched flat profile is replaced by double undulated profile and single seal are replaced by the double seal. Hence heat loss in the air preheater is minimized. The performance of economizer is enhanced by increasing the diameter of the coils. Hence the economizer and air preheater absorb additional heat from exhaust flue gas. The changed profile in air preheater and increased diameter in economizer were analyzed by using ANSYS fluent software. Based on the results the percentage of efficiency in air preheater and economizer is significantly increased.
