Cosmetic shop management system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
Buying new cosmetic products is difficult. It can even be scary for those who have sensitive skin and are prone to skin trouble. The information needed to alleviate this problem is on the back of each product, but it's thought to interpret those ingredient lists unless you have a background in chemistry.
Instead of buying and hoping for the best, we can use data science to help us predict which products may be good fits for us. It includes various function programs to do the above mentioned tasks.
Data file handling has been effectively used in the program.
The automated cosmetic shop management system should deal with the automation of general workflow and administration process of the shop. The main processes of the system focus on customer's request where the system is able to search the most appropriate products and deliver it to the customers. It should help the employees to quickly identify the list of cosmetic product that have reached the minimum quantity and also keep a track of expired date for each cosmetic product. It should help the employees to find the rack number in which the product is placed.It is also Faster and more efficient way.
Sachpazis:Terzaghi Bearing Capacity Estimation in simple terms with Calculati...Dr.Costas Sachpazis
Terzaghi's soil bearing capacity theory, developed by Karl Terzaghi, is a fundamental principle in geotechnical engineering used to determine the bearing capacity of shallow foundations. This theory provides a method to calculate the ultimate bearing capacity of soil, which is the maximum load per unit area that the soil can support without undergoing shear failure. The Calculation HTML Code included.
CFD Simulation of By-pass Flow in a HRSG module by R&R Consult.pptxR&R Consult
CFD analysis is incredibly effective at solving mysteries and improving the performance of complex systems!
Here's a great example: At a large natural gas-fired power plant, where they use waste heat to generate steam and energy, they were puzzled that their boiler wasn't producing as much steam as expected.
R&R and Tetra Engineering Group Inc. were asked to solve the issue with reduced steam production.
An inspection had shown that a significant amount of hot flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes, where the heat was supposed to be transferred.
R&R Consult conducted a CFD analysis, which revealed that 6.3% of the flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes without transferring heat. The analysis also showed that the flue gas was instead being directed along the sides of the boiler and between the modules that were supposed to capture the heat. This was the cause of the reduced performance.
Based on our results, Tetra Engineering installed covering plates to reduce the bypass flow. This improved the boiler's performance and increased electricity production.
It is always satisfying when we can help solve complex challenges like this. Do your systems also need a check-up or optimization? Give us a call!
Work done in cooperation with James Malloy and David Moelling from Tetra Engineering.

Immunizing Image Classifiers Against Localized Adversary Attacksgerogepatton
This paper addresses the vulnerability of deep learning models, particularly convolutional neural networks
(CNN)s, to adversarial attacks and presents a proactive training technique designed to counter them. We
introduce a novel volumization algorithm, which transforms 2D images into 3D volumetric representations.
When combined with 3D convolution and deep curriculum learning optimization (CLO), itsignificantly improves
the immunity of models against localized universal attacks by up to 40%. We evaluate our proposed approach
using contemporary CNN architectures and the modified Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIFAR-10
and CIFAR-100) and ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Challenge (ILSVRC12) datasets, showcasing
accuracy improvements over previous techniques. The results indicate that the combination of the volumetric
input and curriculum learning holds significant promise for mitigating adversarial attacks without necessitating
adversary training.
2. Points & Crossing
• To divert the train from one track to another
track some special arrangements are needed due
to the inside flanges on the wheel which can
move on a definite track. These special
arrangements are called points and crossings.
The points or switches provide the facility of
The points or switches provide the facility of
diverting the vehicle and crossings provide gaps
in the rails to be crossed by the flange wheels. A
complete set of points and crossings is called a
turn out. Right hand turn-out and left hand turn
out is shown in figures below.
3. Some
– Turn out: A complete set of points and crossing along with lead rail is
known as turn out. Details of a turn out are given in figure.
– Tongue rail: It is a tapered movable rail made of high carbon or
manganese steel to withstand wear. It is attached at its thicker end to a
running rail. Sometimes it is called switch rail.
– Stock Rail: It is running rail against which a tongue rail operates.
– Switch: A pair of tongue and stock rails with necessary connections and
fittings form a switch. It is the device used to divert the rolling stock from
one track to another track. It consists of a tongue rail and a stock rail. The
one track to another track. It consists of a tongue rail and a stock rail. The
tongue rail is supported on sliding plates and each pair of tongue rail is
connected by a stretcher bar near the toe of the switch as in the figure.
This arrangement keeps the movement of both tongue rails equal. A set
of switch is known as point.
– Points: A pair of tongue rails with their stock rails is known as point. In
other word a set of switches is known as point.
– Crossing: A crossing is a device introduced at the junction where two
rails cross to permit the wheel flange of a railway vehicle to pass from
one track to another track.
10. Component Parts of a switch or Point:
1. A set of stock rail
2. A pair of tongue rail
3. A pair of heel block
4. A number of slide chairs to support the tongue
rail
rail
5. Two or more stretcher bars to connect tongue
rails
6. A gauge tie plate to fix and ensure correct gauge
at points
7. Guard or check rail
11. Component part of Crossings:
a) Two Rails: (Point and Splice rail ): Point rail ends at the nose
while the splice rail joins a little behind the nose.
b) Two wing Rails: These are right and left hand wings rails. They
converse to form a throat and diverge again on either side of the
nose.
c) A pair of Check rails: To provide a path for the wheel flange
c) A pair of Check rails: To provide a path for the wheel flange
and guide them, a pair of check rails is provided.
13. Station & yards
• Station is a place on a railway line, where trains
are stopped for passengers to entrain or detrain
and an authority to proceed is given to the train.
• At some of the stations the movement of trains is
also controlled.
also controlled.
• A station should be located as near a village or
town as possible with easy approach roads to
facilitate the movement of passengers and goods
as well.
• There should be provision of future extensions
also.
14. Functions of railway station
• For exchange of passengers
• For exchange of goods
• For the control of train movements
• To facilitate the trains on a single line track to cross from
opposite direction
opposite direction
• To enable the following express trains to overtake the
train ahead
• For taking fuels for locomotive
• For changing locomotive and running staff
• For attaching or detaching wagons and compartments
• For sorting of bogies to form new trains
16. Wayside station
1. Wayside station: the station on which trains
move only in two directions (upside &
downside).
a) Halt station: This is the simplest type of stopping
place. It may or may not have small room. There is
place. It may or may not have small room. There is
usually one platform. No permanent staff is kept at
these halts. Ticket to passengers is issued either by
travelling ticket examiner or travelling booking clerk.
Sometimes tickets are issued by some contractors.
They provide facility to nearby villages where there is
low traffic volume. The main disadvantage of such
halts is that many passengers travel without ticket.
18. b. Flag station
• Flag station: a request stop, flag stop or whistle stop
describes a station at which trains stop only on an as-
needed basis, that is, only if there are passengers to be
picked up or dropped off. At request stops for which there
are no passengers to be dropped off, trains need only slow
are no passengers to be dropped off, trains need only slow
in the vicinity of the platform — or, in some cases, pass it
at speed — instead of coming to a complete stop at an
empty platform. There are no arrangements to control the
movements of trains and crossing facilities. These stations
have buildings, staff and telegraph facilities.
19.
20. c. Crossing station
These stations are provided with the facilities of
crossing. These stations are provided at least one
loop line to allow another train if one train is
standing on the track. Generally the train which
has to be stopped is taken on the loop line and the
has to be stopped is taken on the loop line and the
other through train is allowed to pass on the main
line.

41. Loops and Sidings
• Loops: when a branch line from a main line meets or
terminates at the same main line, this arrangement is called
as loops. Loops can be sub-divided into three groups:
– Split turn out: it is not suitable for fast through trains.
– Trailing turn out: A fast through train has to reduce speed slightly
while crossing over a reverse curve.
– Straight and loop: For the fast through trains it is suitable as there is
– Straight and loop: For the fast through trains it is suitable as there is
no need reducing speed.
