Design and development of wheel spray pump
In the agricultural sector generally, the farmer uses the traditional way that means spray carried on back and spraying crop. This becomes time consuming, costly and human efforts is a major concern, these problems can be overcome by using mechanically operated wheel spray pump. It facilitates the uniform spread of the chemicals, it is capable of spraying chemicals at the desired level, precision made nozzle tip for adjustable stream and capable of throwing foggy spray as per requirement. In our project we use the slider-crank mechanism to convert rotational motion into a reciprocating motion to operate the pump, thus the pesticide is spread through the nozzle. This work gives a continuously foggy flow of pesticide at the required pressure and height. A special arrangement is implemented in this project to adjust the pressure as high or low. We also use two wheels at the back of the frame to balance the complete assembly. By using the wheel spray pump, spraying time and human efforts reduce and results in cost reduction.

Quality improvement in carbon bush machining
This paper presents a Lean Six Sigma improvement in a production line of the company’s Carbon Bush Machining Sector, in order to eliminate losses that cause low productivity, affecting the fulfillment of the production plan and customer satisfaction. The use of Lean methodology following the DMAIC (Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve and Control) stages allowed analysing the factors that cause wastages of carbon bush. The root cause for wastages were identified with helps of quality tools like (control chart, Pareto chart, cause and effect and diagram, etc). The major problem and cause that contributes for wastage which we assumed were through handling of work pieces (carbon bush), done by both machines and humans. The solution was generated after collection of various data through inspection.

To find out correlation between the temperament and the parameters of a smile: A photographic study on visagism
In order to design a more life-like smile, it is necessary to co-relate it to the personality of the subject. It is possible using a novel concept of “Visagism”. With the Visagism concept, clinicians can design a smile that blends the patient’s physical appearance with his/her personality and desires. Aim: To find out as to whether the concept of Visagism is present in dentate individuals. Setting and Design: A self-reporting questionnaire was formulated which highlighted the reaction of female subjects to different situations in life and hence their personality was determined. Materials and Methods: The photographs of teeth of the same subjects were taken, and their tooth forms, long axes, and embrasure lines were drawn using the software. Statistical Analysis Used: These parameters were then statistically analyzed and correlated with the individual personality. Results and Conclusion: A definite correlation was found between the temperament and the parameters of a smile. The parameter of tooth form was more closely related to the personality and the most common temperament was found out.

Outcome Based Education, need for the hour- NBA
Outcome-Based Education (OBE) model is being adopted at a fast pace at Engineering colleges in India at the moment. It is considered as a giant leap forward to improve technical education in India and help Indian Engineers compete with their global counterparts. Outcome Based Education (OBE) is an important demonstration Tool for student-centered instruction that focuses on measuring student performance through outcomes. Outcomes include Engineering Knowledge, Problem Analysis, Ethic, Individual and Team Work, Communication etc... It enables the students to perpetuate these outcomes as they perceive over the years of engineering. The students are evaluated for all the required parameters (Outcomes) during the course of the program. The attainment, defined by the NBA, gives a substantial opportunity for Tier-II students to bridge this gap of employability. In this present paper, a case study is developed through CO-PO mapping and attainment for Mechanical Engineering Students of Tier-II. The formulated rubrics assessment is indicative of a continuous improvement strategy that can be easily adaptable by faculty and students across engineering streams.

Factors to be considered for location selection for affordable housing
Due to the rise in population in metro cities, there has been a substantial rise in the demand for houses. This demand, however, is more from the service-going employees which majorly falls under lower and medium income group. To fulfill this increasing demand and meet these uprising challenges, affordable housing has more or less become the necessity of our developing country. Affordable housing is a challenge that many countries are currently dealing with. “Affordable housing refers to any housing that meets some form of affordability criterion, which could be income level of the family, size of the dwelling unit or affordability in terms of EMI size or a ratio of house price to annual income.” Along with constructing the right number of houses, constructing it within the right budget is also equally necessary. With an increase in the rate of land parcels in and around the metro cities, selection of appropriate land parcel plays an important role in keeping the project within the desired budget. Budget is the most crucial constraint of the project and not much buffer is available for the same. Undertaking an affordable housing project should be such that the profitability of the developer company is achieved as well as the financial needs of the consumer are complimented. It should be a win-win situation for both parties. To execute such a project, the location for the project should be well planned. This is especially important for targeting the pricing sensitivity to locational advantage. Selecting the appropriate location will solemnly solve the budgetary restriction for the developer and the tenements. In this research paper, we will discuss the factors to be considered while selecting an appropriate location to execute a successful affordable housing project.

Preliminary screening of suitable clones for manufacturing green tea from the existing released clones in northeast India
In India, the existing clones and variety of tea plants have been developed for manufacturing of black tea (CTC & Orthodox Tea). But till now no clone & variety of tea has been identified exclusively for manufacturing of Green Tea (steamed/ roasted) So one humble attempt was made to identify tea clones from the existing released clones for preference of manufacturing Green Tea on the basis of their taste & their Polyphenol: Amino Acid ratio. Selected ten clones representing the China Jat, Assam Jat, Cambod Variety and Industry released Clones of Assam on the basis of their availability and potential quality on CTC and Orthodox Tea were analyzed with their morphological character,chemical analysis and green tea taste by tea taster indicates that TV-1, TV-7, P126 have the best potentiality for manufacturing green tea.
