Design and Fabrication of Pedal Operated Air Compressor
Abstract: The first idea for powering the pump would be a stationary bicycle. Pedal power is simple, efficient, and practical. Its most familiar use is the bicycle for personal or cargo transportation. But pedals can also power small stationary machines. Since the system is to remain human powered and large amounts of power are required, having the operator use their stronger leg muscles was intuitive. A stationary pedal driven device seemed …

Environmental implications of stubble and their usages as soil and concrete reinforcement
Abstract: Stubble burning has been reckoned among the major contributors to air pollution, especially in North India. It is a significant source of gaseous pollutants causing serious damage to human health and the environment. The situation is more hazardous due to the intensive rice-wheat rotation system which generates a large amount of stubble with no significant use as good as burning due to poor knowledge of the management of stubble. It …

Techno-Economic Analysis of Packed Bed Type Thermal Batteries for Surplus Renewable Energy Storage
Abstract: Low carbon electricity from renewables will form the bed rock of the energy transition necessary for climate change mitigation. However, variable renewable generators suffer from intermittency and variability – there can be large surplus power available at times which cannot be dispatched to the grid. At many times, the practice is to curtail surplus renewable output, which is wasteful and not economic. There are also phases when generation is not …

Study of Shear Strength Behaviour of Soil With Kaolinite Mixture
Abstract: An experimental testing program was undertaken for evaluating the effect of kaolinite on the strength properties of locally available sand and soil. Strength depends principally upon the content of (1) water, (2) clastic materials and (3) plastic materials. Soils are primarily of two types (1) cohesionless soils in which the strength this produced mainly by the friction of clastic particles against one another, and (2) cohesive soils in which the …
