Design and fabrication of a radio-controlled mini rover with audio-visual sensors, suspension and four-wheel steering
The use of an electronic vehicle in perilous areas, even in the absence of human intervention in providing the view of the location is a requirement. We, therefore, intend to provide a solution by fabricating a mini-rover that has the capability of monitoring the ambiance of a place providing the First-Person View. The rover is radio controlled with a range of 200m and at the same time, it sends the audio and video received by the rover. The rover is equipped with microcontrollers, camera, Li-Po battery, microphone, Servo motor and DC motors which enables it to travel up to 25kmph. The camera uploads data using IP address or Internet while the controller transmits at 2.4 GHz Radiofrequency. Moreover, having a center of gravity close to the bottom makes the vehicle attain greater stability. Alongside it has four wheels steering with a range of 60° which enables precise maneuvering. Radio controlled (or R/C) cars are battery/gas powered model cars/trucks that can be controlled from a distance using a specialized transmitter or remote. The project involves design, fabrication and physical demonstration of the above said mini rover.

Analysis of intersection Dharmaraj Chowk
Study of intersection is very important to control traffic flow, factors contributing to traffic accidents are numerous and they interact complexly. The occurrence of traffic conflict is determined. This study proposes methods of investigation and analyzing data. Detailed accident analysis shows that intersection scenarios are a serious focal point for accidents in urban areas. Therefore such an analysis is necessary to be done. There exist a lot of different intersection types with different levels of complexity. Therefore, the relevant scenarios were chosen out of the accident analysis to focus only on the most dangerous scenarios. Pedestrian road crossings have become a major issue in road traffic flow, especially in urban areas where there is no control for pedestrian road crossings. Pedestrian road crossing behavior is a serious threat to pedestrians at uncontrolled midblock crossing locations in the mixed traffic conditions. Due to an increase in motor vehicle growth, there is an increase in the regulation of motor vehicles only and the regulation of pedestrian is completely neglected. This increases the uncontrolled road crossing behavior of the pedestrian. The main motivation of this study is to investigate the errors in the design of intersection so as per our interest we choose ‘Dharmaraj chowk’ Akurdi. A number of accidents are increasing day by day, during the decade 2001 to 2011, the number of road accidents in the country is increased at a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 2.1 percent. Similarly, the number of road accident fatalities and the number of persons injured in road accidents in the country between 2001and 2011 increased by 5.8 percent and 2.4 percent, respectively. As a result of concerted and coordinated road safety efforts, there has been a decline of the order 3.1 percent and 0.4 percent in the number of persons injured and the number of road accidents, respectively, in 2011, compared to 2010. However, the number of fatalities increased by 5.9 per cent in 2011.

Urban spaces and health inequity
In the recent urban era, health inequity is a major challenge faced by planners and policy makers. With the increasing trend of people moving to urban zones and areas in the search of better stature of life and job opportunities, increased pressure and load on the already fragile urban infrastructure is visible resulting in social, cultural and economic inequities. Whereas health inequities are a major consequence of socio-cultural and economic inequalities in our society resulting in poor health services and amenities to the economically week, racial, ethnic and religious minorities and migrants. This paper mainly focuses on the inclusion of the planned urban spaces with the heath inequity problems such that the socially excluded and weaker section of the society thrive harmoniously. We suggest that an integrated approach in defining and developing urban spaces and areas with proper actions to deal with health inequity can magnify other steps and policies to deal with the health inequity present in our society and which is the need of the 21st century. We close with the suggestions to improve research and development in the field of environmental conditions, changing patterns in the urban environment and health inequity in the modern-day society to cope up with the problem of security that must be available to all. These practices may include urban slum upgradation and rejuvenation, participatory and integrated public approach, epidemic control and urban ecosystem services of health. We conclude that if the national and international communities and agencies are serious about the SDGs, stronger efforts and actions should be taken to improve the urban spaces, living conditions, socio-economic conditions which can promote health equity to all.

Feasibility study using post tensioning in large span frames
The paper deals with the structural analysis and designing of an auditorium. In order to support column free large span structure, the auditorium is designed with post-tensioned beams. Equivalent static analysis of RC structure was done using ETABS. The post-tensioned structure was analyzed and designed using SAP2000. The paper does a comparison between RC structure and post-tensioned structure

Optimization of machining process of EN-36C using electric discharge machining process
EDM or electric discharge machining is achieved when a discharge take place between two points of the anode and cathode, the intense heat is generated near the zone melts and evaporates the materials in the sparking zone. For improving the effectiveness of the process, the workpiece and the tool are submerged in a dielectric fluid (hydrocarbon or mineral oils). The proposed research is workout on machining of EN36C STEEL and there parameters such as tool dia, peak current, pulse on time, and pulse off time. It is observed that consider parameter namely tool diameter and pulse off time have significant effect on performance parameters and it was also justified by ANOVA analysis. For the validation of result confirmation test has been carried out and the associated error in the context of SR is only 1.14%, MRR 5.85%.

Human motion detection and notification system
Video surveillance has become an important tool for organizations for maintaining its security and safety applications. This science has been evolving ever since. These systems are very important and find its applications finance, banks, and home. Traditional video surveillance will typically succeed close distance observance. Digital surveillance systems are replacing analog cameras which use coaxial cable for cost and performance reasons. The motion detector can capture any object moving in its surrounding area and continuously monitor the area for any changes. Security is a primary concern, and CCTV or security guards can be expensive. In this age of technology, we can use much cheaper alternatives for security monitoring. Automated Video Surveillance System has been developed to detect the motion in a live video stream environment. The System proposed is a software module that can be used in with any kind of camera or computer system. With this, any unlawful intrusion can be detected and notified. Motion Detection continuously scans a particular area for any presence of motion. It makes use of advance image processing and video processing for this purpose. The system acquires the video footage and does a real-time frame by frame analysis. Every frame is processed to find the details about the surrounding. This detail is then used to add details to the video footage through video processing.
