The solenoid engine project works on electromagnetic principles of a solenoid. A solenoid is copper coil. The wire is tightly folded multiples to form a solenoid coil. When electrical charge is supplied to the solenoid, it creates a magnetic flux as the current passes through it. The solenoid engine is V4 engine. There are four solenoids as cylinders and there is one piston in each solenoid. The metal pistons inside the solenoids react to the magnetic field created by the solenoids when current is flowing through. When the electrical current is no more flowing through the solenoid, the pistons fall back down to their original position due to gravity. As a result, the piston moves in a linear motion. The pistons are connected to the crankshaft. When the pistons move in a specific sequence, the crankshaft rotates. The linear motion has been converted to rotary motion using this mechanism. The RPM of the engine was controlled by adding a potentiometer to control the resistance of voltage provided to the solenoids. Therefore, controlling how fast the engine operates.

Comparative analysis between traditional aquaponics and reconstructed aquapon...bijceesjournal
The aquaponic system of planting is a method that does not require soil usage. It is a method that only needs water, fish, lava rocks (a substitute for soil), and plants. Aquaponic systems are sustainable and environmentally friendly. Its use not only helps to plant in small spaces but also helps reduce artificial chemical use and minimizes excess water use, as aquaponics consumes 90% less water than soil-based gardening. The study applied a descriptive and experimental design to assess and compare conventional and reconstructed aquaponic methods for reproducing tomatoes. The researchers created an observation checklist to determine the significant factors of the study. The study aims to determine the significant difference between traditional aquaponics and reconstructed aquaponics systems propagating tomatoes in terms of height, weight, girth, and number of fruits. The reconstructed aquaponics system’s higher growth yield results in a much more nourished crop than the traditional aquaponics system. It is superior in its number of fruits, height, weight, and girth measurement. Moreover, the reconstructed aquaponics system is proven to eliminate all the hindrances present in the traditional aquaponics system, which are overcrowding of fish, algae growth, pest problems, contaminated water, and dead fish.

DEEP LEARNING FOR SMART GRID INTRUSION DETECTION: A HYBRID CNN-LSTM-BASED MODELgerogepatton
As digital technology becomes more deeply embedded in power systems, protecting the communication
networks of Smart Grids (SG) has emerged as a critical concern. Distributed Network Protocol 3 (DNP3)
represents a multi-tiered application layer protocol extensively utilized in Supervisory Control and Data
Acquisition (SCADA)-based smart grids to facilitate real-time data gathering and control functionalities.
Robust Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) are necessary for early threat detection and mitigation because
of the interconnection of these networks, which makes them vulnerable to a variety of cyberattacks. To
solve this issue, this paper develops a hybrid Deep Learning (DL) model specifically designed for intrusion
detection in smart grids. The proposed approach is a combination of the Convolutional Neural Network
(CNN) and the Long-Short-Term Memory algorithms (LSTM). We employed a recent intrusion detection
dataset (DNP3), which focuses on unauthorized commands and Denial of Service (DoS) cyberattacks, to
train and test our model. The results of our experiments show that our CNN-LSTM method is much better
at finding smart grid intrusions than other deep learning algorithms used for classification. In addition,
our proposed approach improves accuracy, precision, recall, and F1 score, achieving a high detection
accuracy rate of 99.50%.
Electric vehicle and photovoltaic advanced roles in enhancing the financial p...IJECEIAES
Climate change's impact on the planet forced the United Nations and governments to promote green energies and electric transportation. The deployments of photovoltaic (PV) and electric vehicle (EV) systems gained stronger momentum due to their numerous advantages over fossil fuel types. The advantages go beyond sustainability to reach financial support and stability. The work in this paper introduces the hybrid system between PV and EV to support industrial and commercial plants. This paper covers the theoretical framework of the proposed hybrid system including the required equation to complete the cost analysis when PV and EV are present. In addition, the proposed design diagram which sets the priorities and requirements of the system is presented. The proposed approach allows setup to advance their power stability, especially during power outages. The presented information supports researchers and plant owners to complete the necessary analysis while promoting the deployment of clean energy. The result of a case study that represents a dairy milk farmer supports the theoretical works and highlights its advanced benefits to existing plants. The short return on investment of the proposed approach supports the paper's novelty approach for the sustainable electrical system. In addition, the proposed system allows for an isolated power setup without the need for a transmission line which enhances the safety of the electrical network

Constitution of alloys
1. Prepared By
Er.Navin.H.Yadav
B.E.,M.Tech, Ph.D*,
Asst. professor, Department of Mechanical
engineering,
Kautilya Institute Of Technology Of Engineering ,
Constitution of alloys:
Solid solutions - substitutional and
interstitial.
2. An Alloy is a substance that has metallic
properties and is composed of two or more
chemical elements , of which at least one is a
metal
If the system is made up of two elements, it is
called binary alloy system; three elements,
ternary alloy system; etc.
3. So far, we have discussed about pure metals in
crystalline, polycrystalline and amorphous form. One
important aspect that will need a special attention is
the alloying of metals. Historically, the significance of
alloying was quite known to human civilization.
Consider for example, the use of Bronze and Brass,
the first one is a metallic alloy of Copper and Tin while
the second one is that of Copper and Zinc. The table
below shows the improvement in mechanical
properties due to such alloying.
4. •You may note that in this case the alloying
has helped to improve the yield strength
substantially. Consequently, the hardness has
also increased, while the fracture toughness
has been sacrificed substantially. Of course all
these aspects were only understood intuitively
by the people of early civilization.
5. Positive Effects
Remarkable increase in Yield Strength, Impact
Strength and Hardness – eg. alloy steels vs. plain
carbon-steel
Improvement in corrosion resistance eg.
Chromium in Steel
Occasional improvement in machinability eg.
Sulphur and Lead in Steel
Reduces Cost eg. Copper+Cadmium etc.
Changes basic property
6. Reduction in Ductility: In most of the cases, the
ductility of an alloy comes down considerably
example, the reduction of ductility in Bronze from
pure Copper.
Reduction in Conductivity: Most of the times there
are reductions in both thermal and electrical
conductivity; example, Copper + Cadmium.
7. Dissolving small amounts of one solid substance in
another is a vitally important way of altering the
properties of materials —
The classic example is the semiconductor silicon:
dissolving tiny amounts (less than one part per
million) of phosphorus has a drastic effect on its ability
to conduct electricity (making the material that is
known as an 'n–type' semiconductor); similar amounts
of arsenic have equally large effects but result in
different electrical characteristics (the material
becomes a 'p–type' semiconductor).
The arrangement and kind of bonding in metals
permits the addition of other elements into the
structure, forming mixtures of metals called alloys.
Even if the added elements are nonmetals, alloys
may still have metallic properties.
9. •Solute atoms – denotes an element or
compound present in a minor
concentration.
•Solvent atoms – represent the
element or compound present in the
greatest amount.
•Solid solution – the crystal
structure is maintained when solute
atoms are added to the host
10. There are two types of solid solution in metals:
1. Substitutional
2. Interstitial
11. Substitutional –
In this form of alloying, solute atoms replace or
substitute the host atoms e.g. Au-Ag. The following
parameters are important for substitutional solutions:
•Difference between atomic radii of the solute and
the solvent atoms should be within ± 15 %. The other
important issues are -
•Electronegativity
•Relative valencies of participating atoms
•Crystal structures of metals of both atom types
should be the same.
12. Interstitial – When the difference in radii
between the participating atoms is too
high, the alloying could occur in the form
of interstitial filling. Impurity atoms fill
voids or interstices among host atoms
e.g. Fe-C. The figure below shows
substitutional and interstitial alloying
schematically.
