 Abstract

This study aims to investigate the sound characteristics exhibited during the no load mechanical run test of a gearbox and develop an effective acoustic hood to mitigate the resulting noise. The experimental setup involves subjecting the gearbox to a no load mechanical run test, which simulates its normal operating conditions without any external load. During the test, sound pressure levels are recorded using Bruel and Kjaer meter at three different locations surrounding the gear. The recorded data is then analyzed by dividing it into octave bands to determine the distribution of sound energy across different frequency ranges. The analysis indicates peak sound energy levels at specific frequencies and provides valuable information of designing an effective noise reduction solution Based on the findings, an acoustic hood is developed to attenuate the sound produced by the device and effect of the acoustic hood will be evaluated. The developed acoustic hood successfully reduces the sound pressure levels in the identified frequency ranges. The results demonstrate the importance of frequency-specific noise reduction measures in improving the acoustic performance of the device.

Vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communication is a technology that enables vehicles to communicate with each other, exchanging information about their location, speed, and direction of travel. This communication has the potential to greatly improve road safety, reduce traffic congestion, and increase fuel efficiency. In this paper, we provide a comprehensive review of the current state of research in V2V communication, including its underlying technologies, standards, and applications. We also discuss the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead for V2V communication, and propose several directions for future research. V2V (vehicle-to-vehicle) communication is an important aspect of the intelligent transportation system (ITS) that enables vehicles to communicate with each other in real-time. The use of LoRa (Long Range) communication technology is becoming increasingly popular due to its low power consumption, long-range communication capability, and low cost. This paper presents an abstract of V2V communication using LoRa technology, which can enable vehicles to exchange information such as location, speed, and direction with neighboring vehicles in a secure and reliable manner. The proposed system utilizes a LoRa-based transceiver module and employs a packetization technique for transmitting and receiving data between vehicles. The system's effectiveness was evaluated through simulation and experimental results, which demonstrate that the proposed system can achieve reliable communication over long distances while consuming low power. This abstract highlights the potential of V2V communication using LoRa technology to improve the safety, efficiency, and reliability of vehicular communication systems.

 Abstract

The main objective of object detection is to detect various objects in a video stream with more accuracy and with less computation time. Image classification involves assigning a class label to an image, whereas object localization involves drawing a bounding box around one or more objects in an image. The object detection algorithm YOLO to examine the entire image in a single instance and predicts the bounding box coordinates and class probabilities for these boxes. This project uses Yolo algorithm with Sort tracker to detect and track various objects in a video stream derived from a Webcam and through the pre-recorded video. From the experimental study, the accuracy of object detection varies from 72% to 97%. The existing algorithms take more time to process each frame and accuracy is also less. The Intersection over Union will decide prediction of each object as Good one. The Nonmax suppression technique will get a single prediction per object. The biggest advantage of using YOLOv7 can process 155 FPS. The experiment was conducted in VScode . The video taken from various places were used to examine the effectiveness of the proposed approach. The experimental results show that our proposed approach can effectively improve the accuracy rate in detection of various objects in an image and also track it. with many applications including surveillance, robotics, autonomous vehicles, and augmented reality.

PPE stands for Personal Protective Equipment, which refers to protective gear or equipment designed to protect individuals from potential hazards or injuries in the workplace. PPE includes items such as helmets, gloves, safety glasses, vest. The use of PPE is essential in many industries, such as construction, manufacturing, and healthcare, to ensure the safety and well-being of workers. PPE must meet specific safety standards and be appropriate for the type of work being performed to provide effective protection against potential hazards. Deep learning techniques have enabled the automation of PPE detection, making the process more accurate and efficient. This paper proposes an extension to an existing PPE detection system using YOLOv5 that detects whether a person is wearing a helmet or not. The proposed system employs YOLOv8 and achieves an accuracy of 94.5% for detecting helmets, an improvement over the existing system's 92.2% accuracy. Additionally, the proposed system provides several new features, including the detection of vests, gloves, goggles, masks, and shoes. These new features enhance the system's safety capabilities by identifying workers who may be at risk due to a lack of appropriate PPE. The proposed system's performance demonstrates the potential of deep learning techniques in improving workplace safety, reducing workplace accidents, and promoting safer working environments.

 Abstract

Women education plays a vital role in the all-round development of a nation. Education is the most important mean for women empowerment that is why we should give much importance to women education. Education will enable women to live in the society with dignity. Almost half of the world population is women but unfortunately a vast number of women are still illiterate. They, if educated, can play important roles in social, political, economic, cultural and other spheres of life. Though now-a-days women are coming forward in these fields and giving important contributions, but yet the number is very few. Women are given much less recognition than what they deserve. Family as well as a society is built by joint contribution of man and women. Though women have so much contribution in the development of the society yet in many cases instead of recognition they get reproach, oppression and humiliation.

 Abstract

In tangible terms, women's social and economic status has a direct impact on their independence. Women played a vital role in ancient Indian civilization. Typically, an individual's status is decided by his or her economic position, which is acquired via the exercise of rights, opportunities, and involvement in decision-making; but, if women are not granted equality, this is not achievable. Gender equality unquestionably supports long-term growth. One of the characteristics of sustainable development is participation in economic decision-making. Suppression of women cannot provide positive effects because they are an integral part of progress. Gender equality fosters a sense of community empowerment. Sufficiency of women can have an impact on both the human development index and economic empowerment. Women work greater hours than males, despite the fact that the majority of them work in low-wage jobs. Participation in political decision-making is another factor that impacts women's position. Social sustainability is exemplified by equal participation in parliamentary institutions.

 Abstract

Often ridiculed for its long history of regular drought- and flood-induced famines, China has always tried to ensure food security for its citizens. A multitude of famines across the years has caused unimaginable public suffering and stress and social instability. "No other civilization has had such a continuous tradition of thinking about famine, and no other nation's modern history has been so influenced by hunger and famine, in at least one of its districts, every year from 108 BC to 1911 AD." In modern times (1920-1921), approximately 500,000 out of a population of 48.8 million in Five Provinces have died from widespread famine and over 19.8 million have been rendered destitute. Then again in 1943, about 3 million perished in Henan province's famine. Thus, it is this long stretch of famine that has led to the fear of famine haunting the thoughts of leaders and economy planners. China is thus unique in its outlook to give such importance to the nation's food security. Since ancient times, the Chinese people have considered 'food' to be a necessity for everyone. For over 5,000 years in the past, the 'mandate of heaven' given to the ruling dynasties has been linked to the availability and distribution of food items. The traditional worldview of China is that the ruler is solely responsible for having enough food to feed his subjects and providing sufficient and timely relief and support should a famine occur. It is believed that rulers who ignore this paramount responsibility would suffer from losing the 'mandate of heaven'. Thus every ruling regime's continued political and public support and official legitimacy has been based on its efforts to build sustainable food security for its people. Self Sufficiency in producing grains to feed its Population had gained Primacy in China from 1949-1990. Presently China is utilising the global food market and agricultural resources to adequately harmonise and complement its food security.

Abstract: In this paper, I intended to compute subsets of Zm that form multiplicative groups, (further finite fields) under the operation of multiplication modulo m (along with addition modulo m). These groups from the subsets of Zm can be evaluated by using programming languages like C, Python and Maxima. Further, those multiplicative groups that form a ring and field over the same set, by the inclusion of additive identity element were also computed. In all the cases identity elements in the multiplicative groups, if exists, will be highlighted (computed with special interest).
