Fractal robots are a type of modular robot composed of small homogeneous electronic cubes that can assemble and rearrange themselves in different configurations. The cubes are embedded with chips that control their movement and can rotate and slide to move and reconfigure the robot. A fractal operating system controls the cubes and facilitates seamless integration and self-repair. Potential applications of fractal robots include bridge building, firefighting, defense, medical procedures, and space exploration due to their ability to reshape, repair themselves, and operate without human intervention. However, the technology is still in its infancy and has limitations including high costs and the need for precise controlling software.

NUMERICAL SIMULATIONS OF HEAT AND MASS TRANSFER IN CONDENSING HEAT EXCHANGERS...ssuser7dcef0
Power plants release a large amount of water vapor into the
atmosphere through the stack. The flue gas can be a potential
source for obtaining much needed cooling water for a power
plant. If a power plant could recover and reuse a portion of this
moisture, it could reduce its total cooling water intake
requirement. One of the most practical way to recover water
from flue gas is to use a condensing heat exchanger. The power
plant could also recover latent heat due to condensation as well
as sensible heat due to lowering the flue gas exit temperature.
Additionally, harmful acids released from the stack can be
reduced in a condensing heat exchanger by acid condensation. reduced in a condensing heat exchanger by acid condensation.
Condensation of vapors in flue gas is a complicated
phenomenon since heat and mass transfer of water vapor and
various acids simultaneously occur in the presence of noncondensable
gases such as nitrogen and oxygen. Design of a
condenser depends on the knowledge and understanding of the
heat and mass transfer processes. A computer program for
numerical simulations of water (H2O) and sulfuric acid (H2SO4)
condensation in a flue gas condensing heat exchanger was
developed using MATLAB. Governing equations based on
mass and energy balances for the system were derived to
predict variables such as flue gas exit temperature, cooling
water outlet temperature, mole fraction and condensation rates
of water and sulfuric acid vapors. The equations were solved
using an iterative solution technique with calculations of heat
and mass transfer coefficients and physical properties.
An Approach to Detecting Writing Styles Based on Clustering Techniquesambekarshweta25
An Approach to Detecting Writing Styles Based on Clustering Techniques
Authors:
-Devkinandan Jagtap
-Shweta Ambekar
-Harshit Singh
-Nakul Sharma (Assistant Professor)
Institution:
VIIT Pune, India
Abstract:
This paper proposes a system to differentiate between human-generated and AI-generated texts using stylometric analysis. The system analyzes text files and classifies writing styles by employing various clustering algorithms, such as k-means, k-means++, hierarchical, and DBSCAN. The effectiveness of these algorithms is measured using silhouette scores. The system successfully identifies distinct writing styles within documents, demonstrating its potential for plagiarism detection.
Introduction:
Stylometry, the study of linguistic and structural features in texts, is used for tasks like plagiarism detection, genre separation, and author verification. This paper leverages stylometric analysis to identify different writing styles and improve plagiarism detection methods.
Methodology:
The system includes data collection, preprocessing, feature extraction, dimensional reduction, machine learning models for clustering, and performance comparison using silhouette scores. Feature extraction focuses on lexical features, vocabulary richness, and readability scores. The study uses a small dataset of texts from various authors and employs algorithms like k-means, k-means++, hierarchical clustering, and DBSCAN for clustering.
Results:
Experiments show that the system effectively identifies writing styles, with silhouette scores indicating reasonable to strong clustering when k=2. As the number of clusters increases, the silhouette scores decrease, indicating a drop in accuracy. K-means and k-means++ perform similarly, while hierarchical clustering is less optimized.
Conclusion and Future Work:
The system works well for distinguishing writing styles with two clusters but becomes less accurate as the number of clusters increases. Future research could focus on adding more parameters and optimizing the methodology to improve accuracy with higher cluster values. This system can enhance existing plagiarism detection tools, especially in academic settings.
Online aptitude test management system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
The purpose of on-line aptitude test system is to take online test in an efficient manner and no time wasting for checking the paper. The main objective of on-line aptitude test system is to efficiently evaluate the candidate thoroughly through a fully automated system that not only saves lot of time but also gives fast results. For students they give papers according to their convenience and time and there is no need of using extra thing like paper, pen etc. This can be used in educational institutions as well as in corporate world. Can be used anywhere any time as it is a web based application (user Location doesn’t matter). No restriction that examiner has to be present when the candidate takes the test.
Every time when lecturers/professors need to conduct examinations they have to sit down think about the questions and then create a whole new set of questions for each and every exam. In some cases the professor may want to give an open book online exam that is the student can take the exam any time anywhere, but the student might have to answer the questions in a limited time period. The professor may want to change the sequence of questions for every student. The problem that a student has is whenever a date for the exam is declared the student has to take it and there is no way he can take it at some other time. This project will create an interface for the examiner to create and store questions in a repository. It will also create an interface for the student to take examinations at his convenience and the questions and/or exams may be timed. Thereby creating an application which can be used by examiners and examinee’s simultaneously.
Examination System is very useful for Teachers/Professors. As in the teaching profession, you are responsible for writing question papers. In the conventional method, you write the question paper on paper, keep question papers separate from answers and all this information you have to keep in a locker to avoid unauthorized access. Using the Examination System you can create a question paper and everything will be written to a single exam file in encrypted format. You can set the General and Administrator password to avoid unauthorized access to your question paper. Every time you start the examination, the program shuffles all the questions and selects them randomly from the database, which reduces the chances of memorizing the questions.

3. INTRODUCTION
In the last few decades, robot research and
development has peeled off in a number of different
directions. The goal, however, is the same : "Robots
are autonomous artificial life forms that can perform
useful work". But, the paths to getting to this point are
diverse.
Robots are programmable machines .They range
from small miniature machines to large crane sized
constructions.
4. Fractal robot is a group of homogeneous electronic
cubes controlled by an operating system
FRACTAL ROBOTS
Cubes are embedded with the chips that
control their movement
The robot can be animated around its joints
in a uniform manner.
5. CONSTRUCTION
Cubes are assembled from face plates bolted
to a cube frame
Each face plates have electrical contact pads
that allow data signals to be routed from one
cube to another .
Cubes have inductive coupling to transmit
power and data signals.
Reference: http://www.irdindia.in/journal_ijtarme/pdf/vol2_iss4/20
6. Symmetrically arranged contact pads around four edges allows
rotational symmetry.
Contacts are relayed out and only transmit power .
7. Petals are pushed in and out of the slot with the with the aid of a
motor.
MOVEMENT MECHANISM
They have serrated edges and so engage
into the neighboring cube through 45
degree by a gear wheel running the
length of the slot which slides the cubes
along.
8.
9. IMPLEMENTATION OF COMPUTER CONTROL
Cubes have a microcontroller to perform basic operations.
The largest component of the Fractal Robot system is the software
Fractal architecture dominates the functions of the core of the O.S,
the data structures, the implementation of the devices etc.
10. FRACTAL O.S
Plays a crucial role in making the integration of the system
seamless and feasible.
Uses some features to achieve these goals.
Transparent data communication
Data compression at all levels
Awareness of built in self repair.

11. FRACTAL BUS
A Fractal bus permits Hardware and software to merge
seamlessly into one unified data structure.
It helps in sending and receiving fractally controlled data.
To reduce the flow of instructions the message is broadcast to a
local machine that controls a small no: of cubes (typically
around 100 cubes).
12. MOVEMENT ALGORITHMS
These are called as digital matter control.
There are only three basic movement algorithms.
Pick and place
N-streamers
L-streamers
13. PICK AND PLACE
Commands are issued to a collection of cubes telling each cube
where to go.
A command of "cube 517 move left by 2 positions" results in only
one cube moving in the entire machine.
Eg: When ever a shell or bomb comes the wall read just itself to
dodge them
14. N-STREAMERS
A cube is pushed out from the surface, and then another cube is
moved into the vacant position ‡
The new cube is joined to the tail of the growing rod and pushed
out again to grow the rod ‡‡
For bridge building applications, the tentacles are grown
vertically to make tall posts.
15. L-STREAMERS
L-shape of cubes numbered 4, 5, 6 are
attached to a rod numbered 1, 2, 3
A new cube 7 is added so that the rod grows
by one cube.
Cubes 7&6 are moved till 5,6&7 forms an L
shape
16. By grouping cubes and moving them, any structure can be programmed
easily within minutes
18. SELF REPAIR
If a part is damaged, robot rebuilds itself by shuffling the cubes around
If a walking robot has lost its leg then robot could reconfigure its structure
and resynthesize the lost features
This feature helps in space applications.
19. APPLICATIONS
1. BRIDGE BUILDING:
Bridges built as rapidly as possible for
mass transit and rapid development of
an economy
Shape changing robots are ideal for
making all manners of bridges from
small to the very largest
20. 2.FIRE FIGHTING
Fire fighting robots need to enter a
building through entrances that may be
very small.
There are times where only machines
with capabilities far beyond what we
have today are capable of rescuing a
particular situation.
21. 3.DEFENSE TECHNOLOGY
Carrying a formidable array of fractal
weapons integrated into a true multi-
terrain vehicle, making them totally lethal
to any passing war fighters, aircraft,
tanks, and armoured personnel carriers
22. 4.MEDICAL APPLICATIONS
A size 1 mm is just adequate for nearest point
of entry into the site of injury from the surface
to perform very complicated surgery to
remove cancers, cysts, blood clots and
stones.
A fractal robot system with 1 mm cubes can squirt into the human body
through a 2 mm pin hole and rebuild itself inside the body into surgical
instruments and perform the operation without having to open up the patient
23. Space is probably one of the best application
areas for fractal robots because of its
cheapness, built in self repair and 100%
automation possibilities.
Using fractal robots it is possible to build
anything from space stations to satellite
rescue vehicles without any human
intervention.
5.SPACE EXPLORATION
24. LIMITATIONS
Technology is still in infancy
Current cost is very high($1000 per cube for the 1st generation of cubes,
after which it will reduce to $100 or so).
Needs very precise & flexible controlling software.
25. CONCLUSION
It may take about 4-5 years for this technology to be introduced and
tried out all over the world. But once the first step is taken and its
advantages well understood it will not take much time for it to be
used in our everyday life.
Using Fractal Robots will help in saving economy; time etc and they
can be used even for the most sensitive tasks.
Also the raw materials needed are cheap, making it affordable for
developing nations also. This promises to revolutionize technology in
a way that has never been witnessed before.
