We are well aware of the scenario of crimes against women all over the world. Wouldn’t it be better for women if they could make their family aware of any problem at the time it is happening by just pushing a button?
The opposing wind forces are completely neglected with the help of a deflector such that the speed of the turbine shaft is increased faster than normal, even at very low wind speed (1m/s).
The issue of theft is very paramount in any organization, especially such organization as a Fuel Stations. Therefore we intend to aid in theft of petrol/diesel of Fuel Stations by bringing an idea for our project.
For small scale workshops, it would be costlier to buy & install huge machines which would be suitable for performing singular & precise operations alone. Moreover, in these small scale workshops, job type or batch type of production process is carried out,
The conceptual design is to generate a more effective energy recovery system by correlating the semi-active suspensions of electric as well as hybrid vehicles. The solenoid design with suspension system with a set of super capacitors will recover part of the energy otherwise lost in electromagnetic dampeners.
Physically challenged people undergo many discomforts for doing their own jobs by themselves. In this modernized world every one cares for their own duty nobody is there to look after the challenged one, so we are indeed in great privileged for helping them. In general day to day life,
