Study on groundwater structure
Groundwater resources are the principal source of drinking water for about all the states in India. Groundwater resources in every district of Chhattisgarh are under increasing stress as there is a rapid growth in their usage. Water managers need more timely and accurate data to access ground-water conditions to manage adverse situations such as drought and loss of pumpage in agriculture and domestic water supply. Currently, groundwater researchers use stand-alone data logging equipment which is labor intensive and the method is not easily scalable if the number of logging locations increases. The aim of this paper is to provide a better understanding of water condition as safe, critical, semi-critical, overexploited in districts of Chhattisgarh.

An experimental investigation of mechanical properties of concrete due to the effect of fiber and fly ash
The high cost of conventional construction materials is an existing factor affecting housing system around the world. This has necessitated research work into alternative materials in the construction field. The aim of this paper is to study the properties of fibers reinforced concrete produced from steel fibers and fly ash. As different dosages of cement were replaced by fly ash and steel fiber, the additive material was added. Fibers have been used in concrete as reinforcement and strengthening component under tension. The various strength such as compressive strength, flexural strength and split tensile strength was experimentally noted for each sample, the fly ash was replaced 5, 10, 15 and 20% cement content respectively. The sample was cured for 7, 14 and 28 days respectively. The aspect of soaking was also considered. The results obtained indicate noticeable improvement in strength with the inclusion of fibers and cement.

Ducasa automatics using internet of things
Automation is the process of controlling system or appliances by automatic means as the name suggests to simply reduce human intervention to a minimum amount and to make life easier for the humans. Automation term was coined from the automobile industry which means increased use of automatic devices and control mechanized devices. Automation is a technology which was developed to do different processed by using programmed commands and provide proper feedback to the human when used. The automated system resulting performs the instruction given with very less human intervention. Automated systems are based on usage of computer and computer programs and the related technologies. With time, the development of the automated system has become complex and sophisticated. The main advantage of automated systems is to provide ease of use of appliances or systems near-human with less human intervention. Automation helps to control the electric appliances in the home office via the Internet which can be done by using various computer-related technologies like Raspberry Pi, Arduino Uno etc. In this project, we are using Raspberry Pi. Raspberry Pi is a credit card sized computer. It is a series of small single board computers developed by Raspberry Pi Foundation which is based in the United Kingdom. It is used in small-scale projects by students. It is equipped with GPIO pins (General Input/output Pins).It uses an operating system Raspbian which is developed for Raspberry Pi itself. Raspbian is a Linux based OS.

Energy generation by the suspension system
The suspension is the system of tires, tire air, springs, shock absorbers and linkages that connects a vehicle to its wheels and allows relative motion between the two. Suspension systems must support both road holding/handling and ride quality, which is at odds with each other. The tuning of suspensions involves finding the right compromise. It is important for the suspension to keep the road wheel in contact with the road surface as much as possible because all the road or ground forces acting on the vehicle do so through the contact patches of the tires. The 20th century saw a large diversification of fossil energy consumption, with coal declining from 96 percent of total production in 1900 to less than 30 percent in 2000. Today, crude oil is the largest energy source, accounting for around 39 percent of fossil energy, followed by coal and natural gas at 33 and 28 percent, respectively. It’s necessary to find an alternate method of energy generation. Since in our car air conditioning to wiper motor runs on fuel. Instead of using fuel for small requirements, we can use the energy generated by the suspension. Our project is to develop energy from the suspension and charge the battery or use the electric energy for various purposes.

Performance analysis of wind turbine using wind lens technology
Wind power generation is proportional to the third power of the wind speed as per available thesis and mathematics. Wind energy is converted into electricity using wind turbine. According to the present design available of wind turbine, only 50% of kinetic energy of wind is converted into useful power output. If we are able to concentrate more wind energy over the turbine blade then the power output of wind turbine can be increased effectively. To embody this, scenario, a simple brimmed ring structure which intentionally creates turbulence behind the turbine blade to draw more air flow into the turbine is added externally at the periphery of the blade. This structure effectively increases the speed of the wind turbine leading to higher energy output from the wind turbine.

Vicinity Monitor using Internet of Things
Internet of things is the technology that has been getting very popular lately so much so that it is powering a big translation in the business models and allowing them to drive their way towards Automation. Putting it straight, Internet of things basically is a network of devices like our vehicles and electrical appliances and software and network connectivity that enables these devices to share data about their status. What it enables the developers to do is to control them remotely. By the year 2020, 260 million devices will be IOT enabled according to Gartner. One of the key areas where internet of things is found to be more helpful is Monitoring. Being able to remotely get information about something or the status of something opens the gate for a large number of applications. Motivated by the goal of achieving clean air in our surroundings, this paper discusses the IoT technologies available that enables us to remotely monitor the air quality of a distant place. Furthermore, this paper contributes by introducing Vicinity Monitor, a sensors based air quality, flames and temperature monitoring project that enables its users to get this information on their Android device remotely. And finally putting forward the advantages, challenges and future scope of this project. We aim to make our contribution to the sustainable world with this research.
