The glues were made by boiling various plant and organic ingredients like fruits, resins, and animal products in water. The mixtures were then used as bonding pastes. The glues were designed to last for extremely long periods, with one variety claimed to last a million years. Different texts from 5th-6th century AD describe the ingredients and preparation methods of these durable ancient Indian glues.
The document discusses ancient Indian traditional methods for forecasting the onset of the rainy season as presented by Dr. A.S. Nene in Nagpur, India on July 20, 2010. Some medium-range animal behavior indicators include ants storing food and herons migrating to mountains. Short-range indicators with moderate reliability are dogs defecating in roads at higher elevations and dragonflies flying low. Medium-range plant phenology predictions of low reliability include fruits ripening early for trees like bangkal, physic nut, and siniguelas.
This document discusses ancient Indian knowledge of botany and its engineering applications. It begins with an overview of the Indian classification system for trees, which divides them into four categories based on whether they have a hard core inside, outside, or all throughout. Certain trees are deemed unsuitable for construction based on this classification. The document then covers various aspects of selecting and using wood for different engineering purposes, including structural elements, shipbuilding, carts and more. Factors discussed include the tree's age, any imperfections in the wood, gender classification, and which parts of the tree are best suited to specific uses. The document provides numerous examples and tables to support the concepts presented.
Transportation engineering played an important role in ancient India. Well-developed road networks connected major cities and trade routes. The Grand Trunk Road, one of the earliest and longest major roads in India, was built more than 2,300 years ago and spanned over 1,600 miles from northwest India to Bangladesh.
This document contains a list of audio and video albums in the music collection of Dr. A.S. Nene. It includes 8 albums of Hindi and other language ghazals, film songs and classical music. It provides contact details for Dr. Nene including email and mobile numbers. The albums cover a wide variety of musical genres and artists.
1. The document describes the ancient Indian method of plastering walls and fresco painting. It involves preparing lime plaster from burned shells and applying it to walls.
2. Colors like white, yellow, red, black and blue were used for paintings. White paint was made by grinding shells or chalk finely and mixing with coconut milk. Yellow and red paints were made from minerals treated with water.
3. Outlines were drawn on the plastered walls using a pencil made by mixing powdered tiles, cow dung and Tulsi leaves. Details were then filled in using paints prepared from minerals.
Many references about ancient town planning are available in Vedic literature. The paper (in Hindi) reviews the available literature for students of Sanskrit language.
Rainfall intensity duration frequency curve statistical analysis and modeling...bijceesjournal
Using data from 41 years in Patna’ India’ the study’s goal is to analyze the trends of how often it rains on a weekly, seasonal, and annual basis (1981−2020). First, utilizing the intensity-duration-frequency (IDF) curve and the relationship by statistically analyzing rainfall’ the historical rainfall data set for Patna’ India’ during a 41 year period (1981−2020), was evaluated for its quality. Changes in the hydrologic cycle as a result of increased greenhouse gas emissions are expected to induce variations in the intensity, length, and frequency of precipitation events. One strategy to lessen vulnerability is to quantify probable changes and adapt to them. Techniques such as log-normal, normal, and Gumbel are used (EV-I). Distributions were created with durations of 1, 2, 3, 6, and 24 h and return times of 2, 5, 10, 25, and 100 years. There were also mathematical correlations discovered between rainfall and recurrence interval.
Findings: Based on findings, the Gumbel approach produced the highest intensity values, whereas the other approaches produced values that were close to each other. The data indicates that 461.9 mm of rain fell during the monsoon season’s 301st week. However, it was found that the 29th week had the greatest average rainfall, 92.6 mm. With 952.6 mm on average, the monsoon season saw the highest rainfall. Calculations revealed that the yearly rainfall averaged 1171.1 mm. Using Weibull’s method, the study was subsequently expanded to examine rainfall distribution at different recurrence intervals of 2, 5, 10, and 25 years. Rainfall and recurrence interval mathematical correlations were also developed. Further regression analysis revealed that short wave irrigation, wind direction, wind speed, pressure, relative humidity, and temperature all had a substantial influence on rainfall.
Originality and value: The results of the rainfall IDF curves can provide useful information to policymakers in making appropriate decisions in managing and minimizing floods in the study area.
Advanced control scheme of doubly fed induction generator for wind turbine us...IJECEIAES
This paper describes a speed control device for generating electrical energy on an electricity network based on the doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) used for wind power conversion systems. At first, a double-fed induction generator model was constructed. A control law is formulated to govern the flow of energy between the stator of a DFIG and the energy network using three types of controllers: proportional integral (PI), sliding mode controller (SMC) and second order sliding mode controller (SOSMC). Their different results in terms of power reference tracking, reaction to unexpected speed fluctuations, sensitivity to perturbations, and resilience against machine parameter alterations are compared. MATLAB/Simulink was used to conduct the simulations for the preceding study. Multiple simulations have shown very satisfying results, and the investigations demonstrate the efficacy and power-enhancing capabilities of the suggested control system.

imaging, emphasizing addressing false positives and resource efficiency.
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
