Meeting Scheduler Systems

The meeting Scheduler system is used to schedule meetings according to the available time slots. Despite, being such an important software, its very easy to implement.

Defect Tracking System

The defect tracking system is also known as a bug tracking system. It is a software application and it keeps track of software bugs which is reported by either end-user or by the internal app in the software development cycle.

It is one of the most important components for the ideal software development firm because when we develop software first time, we don't know how it is going to work on different environments and situations. So, to keep the track of the bug we need to know all the information about it and its causes such as location, time, events that happened before.

This information is either reported manually or by some internal bug reporting program. Sometimes, email is prepared by the system and sent to programmers with end-user permission.

All these reported bugs are stored in this tracking system to manage this data and get information from it.

Programmers keep on working to solve issues according to their priorities and keep that info too on this system only.

This system helps the programmer to move towards the goal of the error-free program.

Digital Audio Processing

Audio Processing can be done in two ways, one is analog and the other one is digital. The most preferential way now days is Digital Audio Processing because analog signals are a representation of data streams that are variable in time whereas digital stream is a representation of the same data in discrete points(samples). More samples we have more accurate our data is.

Hydraulics project ideas

Hydraulics project ideas
What is Hydraulics?

Hydraulics is a science which deals with mechanical properties of the liquid. It is basically a liquid form of pneumatics. In pneumatics, we use compressed air and in hydraulics, we use the compressed liquid. When we compress the liquid, it gets pressurized and It uses the power of pressurized liquid for doing various tasks. It works on the principle of Pascal Law which states that when there is an increase in pressure at any point in a confined fluid, there is an equal increase at every other point in the container.

You can find hydraulic machines from your backyard to a big construction site.

Concept:

It works on a very simple concept that when the force applied to incompressible liquid at one point, it gets transmitted and multiplied at another point.  The multiplication factor of this force depends upon the area of the piston.

Perpetual motion machine

Perpetual motion machine


What is Perpetual Motion?
The perpetual motion would occur in a device or system if a motion, once started, were to continue indefinitely. It is believed to be practically impossible because of friction motion can't continue indefinitely without any external source of energy. Moreover, it is against the law of conservation of energy, so it is virtually impossible to build such a machine.

Yes, on paper it appears possible, but when implemented practically, the system starts losing energy gradually and it gets stop after some time.

If it is impossible why it is important?

It is a very important concept to learn and study because it helps us in understanding the energy reuse method and concepts. Though it does not run for an infinite time yes, it uses lesser energy than any other system.

Concept:

This system uses gravity or metallic energy to move the system. In one of the most common methods of these machines, they keep on side of the wheel always heavier, either by water or by transferring some kind of weight. This heavier part keeps pushing wheel downward with the help of gravity and this machine should remain in motion but in real life, it starts to lose energy and eventually stop.

Propeller Monorail Student Project

Propeller Monorail Student Project

As its name signifies in itself, monorails are trains that run on a single track. I thought of discussing with you because recently in Mumbai, India. The government decided to use it for public transportation. Though this technology is not new I got excited to discuss the possibilities it brings when we think about the elevated monorail. This is going to be very helpful because they will need less space and can be used in the middle of the road i.e divider.

If you consider monorail as one of your projects, that the best thing is that you can power your engine using any source you would like to use. For example electric engines, diesel engines or solar-powered dc motors, etc. These trains are commercially used in Japan and they are very successful too. Moreover, technology adapted in maglev trains has also come from these trains. To build a monorail project either elevated or on the ground, you need to found how you can innovate it in such a way that it brings something new within your work. In my opinion, as a student, you will find ground trains are easier to build but before jumping to any conclusion, I would like you to do a lot of research and find each and every minute detail about how you can build this for yourself.   I have shared a couple of links below and I hope you will find many of them useful.

As far as the student project is concerned, the monorail has a lot of potentials as shown by the Students of Australia as they used monorail for their final year project. The best thing they did is to use other components with this train to make their project stand out from other student's work.

Their train not only follows the line as line following robot but it is smart enough to stop at various stations.

Generate electricity from Dance Floor

We all know that dance is a great form of exercise. While dancing we lose a lot of energy and the project we are discussing today will help us to conserve this energy in the form of electricity.

Aim:

To convert human energy into electricity and conserve it into the battery.

Concept:

To implement this project we need to use Piezoelectric materials, which have a special quality of producing electricity when stress is applied to them. This effect was first studied by Carl Linnaeus and Franz Aepinus in the mid 18th century and generally occurs in crystalline materials such as quartz, topaz, etc. These materials consist of asymmetric unit cells and when pressure is applied on them they get more aligned and regular which produces a potential difference between them.

To understand it, we need to know about Hooke's law and electric displacement. Hooke's law states that that stress is directly proportional to strain. When we combined these two concepts we get an equation of Piezoelectricity.

How it works?

When we dance on the bouncing floor (spring and series of power-generating blocks) small electric current produced which is fed into nearby batteries. These batteries constantly recharged and used to power parts of the nightclub.

Solar powered refrigerator

Solar powered refrigerator
What is Solar Powered Refrigerators?
They are absorption refrigerators. An absorption refrigerator is a refrigerator that uses a heat source (e.g., solar, kerosene-fueled flame) to provide the energy needed to drive the cooling system. Absorption refrigerators are a popular alternative to regular compressor refrigerators where electricity is unreliable, costly, or unavailable, where noise from the compressor is problematic, or where surplus heat is available (e.g., from turbine exhausts or industrial processes).

Moving Bridge

Moving Bridge

Movable Bridge is a bridge that moves upwards to allow smooth passage of ships and boats. Though physics of bridge itself a complex matter, but the movable bride is not a new concept. It has been around for centuries. Still learning about the science of bridges is a great learning experience. The bride uses all three Newton laws and you should know about some basics before we discuss any further.

In this post, we will discuss if we can use renewable energy sources in the movable bridge which requires a great amount of energy. At first, it looks like a gigantic task, but it is possible with some innovation and by reducing greenhouse gas emissions, pollution emissions, waste, and the use of non-renewable resources to sustainable levels. There are three major sources of energy which we can use at the site of a bridge:
1. A wave of Hydro Energy
2. Wind Energy
3. Solar Energy &
4. Bio Gas

After thinking for a which I came to the conclusion that biogas would be the most viable option for achieving our goal and we can take some help from other sources too.Though I am not sure whether the above solution works in real life or not but I am sure it deserves some experimentation in laboratories and can be used as your science fair or mechanical engineering demonstration project.
