Abstract: This project proposes the development of a GPS-based web application for government buses to provide real-time tracking and enhance the public transport experience. The system provides passengers with real- time information on bus locations, expected arrival times, and available seating via an intuitive interface. Integrated route details, including starting and ending points, help users plan their journeys efficiently. The application ensures transparency and improves safety by reducing waiting time and uncertainty. GPS and IoT technologies are leveraged to collect and transmit bus data to a centralized cloud system. Passengers can access real-time updates on their smartphones or through public displays at bus stops.The admin panel allows authorities to monitor bus operations and manage fleet logistics effectively. Alerts and notifications keep passengers informed about delays or route changes. The system promotes digital transformation in public transport with a focus on reliability and user convenience. Overall, the solution aims to improve trust, accessibility, and efficiency in government-operated bus services.

Abstract: Many buildings available today are built without considering whether they are energy efficient or not. This gives rise to either over-estimation or under-estimation of energy (electricity) to be used by the building. Hence, a way of estimating the total energy consumption of a building is to properly account for the variables that demand energy usage from a building and then calculate the resultant energy used using a suitable computer application. The energy performance of two two-bedroom bungalows was estimated using a developed computer application. The computer application allowed input of various building parameters such as geometry (height, breadth, and width), roof type, building orientation, window shading, cooling load, and other electrical appliances. The estimation was done during the peak hour of the day (Cooling Load Temperature Difference between 11 am and 3 pm) for one hour with the building facing due west to efficiently ascertain how energy efficient the building would perform under peak load. The results from computed data show that the building required more energy to keep it cool due to excessive sunlight incident on the building. Also, the roofing material and window shading contributed to the poor energy performance of the building. With an estimated value of 16kW, it can be concluded that the energy performance of the building was below average as a result of the poor selection of building materials and building orientation.

Abstract: The study aimed in enhancing the efficiency of MIL-53(Al) in the remediation of tricyclazole from aqueous matrices through the application of RSM, ANN and GA. In order to enhance the remediation efficiency of tricyclazole by MIL-53(Al) process parameter- pH (2-11), adsorbate concentration (0.01-3 ppm), equilibration time (5 min, 10, 20, 30 and 1, 2, 3, 6h), adsorbent dosage (0.01-0.7 mg) were optimized by statistical modelling. An investigation of the batch methods of adsorption was carried out. The finding reports indicated that the RSM-ANN model's projection values exhibited greater agreement with experimental results as compared to RSM alone. The RSM-ANN model showed greater coefficients of determination than the RSM. As compared to RSM, which showed R2Adj = 0.980 for tricyclazole removal optimization, the RSM-ANN reported R2Adj and RMSE values of 0.998 and 0.0725. When genetic algorithm was introduced as a hybrid coupling to the RSM model it was found that amongst all the three optimization models RSM-GA model showed the best optimization, with an R2, R2Adj and Cross-validated R2Adj value of 0.9985, 0.9981, and 0.9963, respectively.

Abstract: : Slurry-Infiltrated Fibrous Concrete (SIFCON) is a high-performance cementitious composite recognized for its outstanding ductility, impact resistance, and strength. This study evaluates the effects of varying hooked-end steel fiber content (1%, 3%, 5%, 7%, and 9%) and partial fly ash replacement on the flexural behavior of SIFCON. Designed to enhance sustainability and structural efficiency, the research explores how different fiber volumes and matrix compositions influence mechanical performance. Using simply supported beams tested under three-point bending, key parameters such as load capacity, deflection, crack patterns, and energy absorption are assessed. The findings reveal that flexural strength and toughness improve with increased fiber content, peaking at 8% volume. However, higher fiber concentrations lead to workability challenges and fiber clustering, which hinder stress uniformity. The study concludes that fly ash-based SIFCON with optimized fiber reinforcement offers a sustainable and robust solution for structural applications requiring superior flexural performance.

Fundamentals of Nanomaterials and Their Industrial Relevance
Authors:-Devendrappa Patil

Abstract:- Nanomaterials, defined as materials with structural components smaller than 100 nanometers, possess unique mechanical, electrical, thermal, and optical properties that significantly differ from their bulk counterparts. These properties arise from high surface area-to-volume ratios and quantum-scale effects, which enable novel functionalities not achievable in traditional materials. The fundamental understanding of nanomaterials includes their classification—such as nanoparticles, nanowires, nanotubes, and nanosheets—and their synthesis through methods like top-down lithography and bottom-up chemical assembly. Characterization techniques including electron microscopy, spectroscopy, and atomic force microscopy are essential for determining nanoscale morphology, composition, and performance. As nanotechnology continues to evolve, the industrial relevance of nanomaterials is expanding rapidly. Sectors such as electronics, energy, healthcare, automotive, and construction increasingly rely on nanomaterials to deliver lighter, stronger, more durable, and energy-efficient products. From carbon nanotubes in structural composites to quantum dots in display technologies and silver nanoparticles in antimicrobial coatings, the applications are vast and transformative. However, challenges remain in terms of scalability, safety, environmental impact, and regulatory compliance, which must be addressed to fully integrate nanomaterials into mainstream industrial ecosystems. This paper provides a comprehensive overview of the fundamental aspects of nanomaterials and evaluates their growing importance in industrial innovation and sustainable development.
