Low-cost E-nose: To identify and study the ripeness of fruit

This paper explains the E-nose to monitoring fruit ripeness & to identify fruits with the implementation of Artificial Neural Network based Micro-controller. We are using or array of sensors (both gas & color) to monitor the ripeness. Though, at first, it gives the result of low accuracy, after repeated training it becomes intelligent. The system’s outpost can be given in lab view for the more versatile outcome. This project can be used in both supermarkets or by vendors or for domestic purposes for both the use of identification of the fruit & as visual appearance does not always give proper result.

Urban Hyperloop: A visionary idea

With the rapid urbanization and growth in population, transportation system, not only in megacities but all over the world is like a mess. Everywhere one can see pollution in all forms, smoke, harmful GHG emissions which not only affects the environment but also the health of all living beings. This is a high time people realize what is right and start working on saving the environment from a slow death. This is when people should consider not only sustainable transportation but also the sustainable way of living as a whole. In this review article, the importance of sustainable transportation has been mentioned along with the introduction of urban hyperloop, technologies used to make it effective, its pros and cons so as to why or why not to go for Hyperloop as a transportation medium. This review article will help all the engineers who want to familiarize themselves with this new technology "Urban Hyperloop'.

Decentralized applications and interplanetary filesystem

A new model for building enormously adaptable and gainful applications is developing. Bitcoin prepared with its cryptographically put away record, rare resource model, and distributed innovation. These highlights give a beginning stage to building another sort of programming called decentralized applications, or dapps. Dapps are quite recently picking up media scope yet will sometime turn out to be more broadly utilized than the world's most mainstream web applications. They are more adaptable, straightforward, dispersed, flexible, and have a superior boosted structure than current programming models.

Design, analysis and optimization of three aluminum piston alloys using FEA

The presented paper uses the Finite Element Method (FEM) to analyze the thermal stress and distribution of three different aluminum alloys. The simulations are carried out by evaluating the parameters like gas pressure, temperature and material properties of the Piston. The four-stroke engine of Bajaj Pulsar 220CC is used to study the analysis procedure for aluminum alloy piston. The resulting analysis will give the prediction of critical region and maximum stress. It is important to locate the critical area of concentrated stress for appropriate modifications. Static and thermal stress analysis is performed by using ANSYS 14.1. The analysis result will help to choose the best aluminum alloy material. The analysis results are used to optimize piston geometry of best aluminum alloy.

Analysis of multi-layered perceptron, radial basis function and convolutional neural networks in recognizing handwritten digits

Identification of handwritten digits is one of the major areas of research in the field of character recognition. Artificial Neural Networks helps in computer vision that deals with how a computer could achieve high-level of understanding from digital images or videos. Thus, neural networks prove to be a boon in recognizing handwritten digits that are scanned as images. However, this paper aims at studying the working of specifically three neural networks - Multi-Layered Perceptron (MLP), Radial Basis Function (RBF) and Convolutional Neural Network (CNN). In order to focus majorly on the implementation of these three neural networks rather than the complexity of the dataset being used, we have used MNIST (Modified National Institute of Standard and Technology) dataset from keras library. MNIST dataset contains 70,000 black and white images of handwritten English digits (60,000 training images and 10,000 testing images). In our study of the above three mentioned neural networks, we have used relu as activation function in the hidden layers and softmax as activation function in the final layer of neural network, adam as an optimizer and cross-entropy as loss function. We have observed that all three networks give accuracy above 95%, however, the major difference is in its training time and error rate.

Production loss management using line balancing and cycle time reduction

Profit is life-line of any business. Profit can be increased by minimizing the losses in production and continuous improvement in quality. Losses will have a negative impact on the productivity and quality of the products produced by any organization. If cycle time is used as one the tool to measure each workstation’s productivity, then reducing the cycle time at the workstation will minimize the time loss in production thereby increasing the productivity. The workstation which takes the longest cycle time will be the critical process or bottleneck process. Also, line balancing is used as one of the effective tools for reducing the cycle time. So, the productivity can be increased only if the critical process is ‘debottlenecked.’ The line efficiency also improves. This paper is aimed at identifying bottleneck workstations with the longest cycle time activities and reducing the losses in production at each workstation in an assembly line of automobile drive head.
