Computer training of technological process operators is recognized worldwide as
an effective means of reducing accidents and increasing production efficiency by
improving operator`s skills.
The use of computer simulators for training operators of potentially dangerous
industries is fixed in regulatory documents of many countries, including Russia. Most
enterprises in the oil and gas industry have already equipped their training centers with
computer simulators; however, the metallurgical sector and other representatives of the
chemical engineering industries do not use and often do not consider a computer
simulator as a tool for improving efficiency and production safety.
World statistics shows that among the causes of industrial accidents, operator
mistakes are firmly in second place. They account for an average of 40% of all
emergency incidents.
Computer training is the most powerful and effective means of dealing with the
operators mistakes. With the help of a specialized simulator, with a high degree of
accuracy, imitating the work of a dangerous technological installation, relating to the
oil refining or metallurgical industry, it is possible not only to familiarize operators
with potential emergencies and develop a strategy for preventing accidents, mitigating
or eliminating its consequences, but also working out actions operators to automatism.
A good full-scale simulator allows to work out detailed measures to prevent accidents,
as well as plans for the localization and liquidation of emergencies

Evaluation of Total Productive Maintenance Implementation in a Selected Semi-...IJMER
Manufacturing industries around the world spend a lot of money on buying new equipment
to increase production but a little is done to get hundred percent output from the machine. However,
because of increased competency levels and demand of quality products at lower costs, buying latest
equipment is not a solution unless it is fully utilized. Therefore machine maintenance and in general,
implementing an appropriate maintenance strategy has become increasingly important for manufacturing
companies to accomplish these requirements. Total productive maintenance (TPM) has become one of the
most popular maintenance strategies to ensure high machine reliability since it is regarded as an integral
part of Lean Manufacturing. Performance evaluation is the most important aspects in the field of
continuous improving of the production process and overall equipment effectiveness (OEE) is one of the
justified performance evaluation methods that is popular in the manufacturing industries to assess the
machine’s effectiveness and performance. In this concern, this research work has been conducted in a
selected semi-automated manufacturing industry to study and evaluate the implementation of autonomous
maintenance and planned maintenance pillars of TPM. After the OEE measurement, it has been
benchmarked with the world class OEE. Pareto and statistical analysis of downtimes were performed to
show the most affecting downtime factors hierarchically. Based on the obtained results, maintenance
management and production planning have been suggested to improve their maintenance procedures and
the productivity as well.
Modeling and Simulation of Manufacturing Line Improvementijceronline
In the paper an example of manufacturing line form automotive industry is analyzed. The line consists of five presses, that can be operated by humans or industrial robots. Since human factors affect destabilization of the production processes, robots are preferred to apply. The problem is how to determine the real difference in the work efficiency between human and robot. Because of problem complexity, Discrete Events Simulation (DES) method have been used. Three models have been developed including manufacturing line before and after robotization and taking into account stochastic parameters of availability and reliability of the machines, operators and robots. Analysis of the production efficiency of the press shop lines operated by human operators or industrial robots are presented. We apply OEE (Overall Equipment Effectiveness) indicator to present how the availability and reliability parameters influence over the performance of the workstations, in particular in the short and long time period.

Virtual Commissioning of Small to Medium Scale Industry Using the Concepts of...IJERA Editor
Small scale industries produce certain products depending on the type of industry they have established. If these small scale industries decide to become medium scale certain changes have to be incorporated in plant layout to meet certain requirements. Certain changes include change in layout design, introducing new machines and equipments in the industry in order to produce new component .To implement these changes in the company we have to get information regarding the new component the company would produce based on this information we have design new plant layout. The purpose of this project is to plan a suitable plant layout which could meet company requirement. To design a new plant layout we are using Delmia as the simulation software. DELMIA Production System Simulation allows the process planner to validate the manufacturing system dynamically. Product flow and operation time, as well as scheduled maintenance and random equipment failure events, are simulated to help the planner understand how they will impact the system’s capacity. Process planners can determine if changes to the system are needed to achieve the desired production demands.
Automatized testing hil system for agile product-design environmentTritem
The stricter safety requirements in the rail industry – implied by the EN 50128 standard – contribute to an increasing demand for testing rail vehicles and their subsystems, especially vehicle main controllers. Hardware-in-the-Loop method, which is commonly used in automotive and aerospace domains, has proved to be functionally useful. However, such systems would usually exceed the budget of a development project in the railway industry, due to short series manufacturing and multiple vehicle variants. To deal with this problem Tritem Microsystems has designed Virtual-HIL which decreases the overall cost and increases portability of this kind of a system. In this paper, we present both the classic approach and our groundbreaking system, along with a use case from one of our recent projects together with an automated testing framework built on the top of ourVirtual HIL.

BROAD UNEXPOSED SKILLS OF TRANSGENDER ENTREPRENEURSIAEME Publication
Since ages gender difference is always a debatable theme whether caused by nature, evolution or environment. The birth of a transgender is dreadful not only for the child but also for their parents. The pain of living in the wrong physique and treated as second class victimized citizen is outrageous and fully harboured with vicious baseless negative scruples. For so long, social exclusion had perpetuated inequality and deprivation experiencing ingrained malign stigma and besieged victims of crime or violence across their life spans. They are pushed into the murky way of life with a source of eternal disgust, bereft sexual potency and perennial fear. Although they are highly visible but very little is known about them. The common public needs to comprehend the ravaged arrogance on these insensitive souls and assist in integrating them into the mainstream by offering equal opportunity, treat with humanity and respect their dignity. Entrepreneurship in the current age is endorsing the gender fairness movement. Unstable careers and economic inadequacy had inclined one of the gender variant people called Transgender to become entrepreneurs. These tiny budding entrepreneurs resulted in economic transition by means of employment, free from the clutches of stereotype jobs, raised standard of living and handful of financial empowerment. Besides all these inhibitions, they were able to witness a platform for skill set development that ignited them to enter into entrepreneurial domain. This paper epitomizes skill sets involved in trans-entrepreneurs of Thoothukudi Municipal Corporation of Tamil Nadu State and is a groundbreaking determination to sightsee various skills incorporated and the impact on entrepreneurship.

Living in 21st century in itself reminds all of us the necessity of police and its administration. As more and more we are entering into the modern society and culture, the more we require the services of the so called ‘Khaki Worthy’ men i.e., the police personnel. Whether we talk of Indian police or the other nation’s police, they all have the same recognition as they have in India. But as already mentioned, their services and requirements are different after the like 26th November, 2008 incidents, where they without saving their own lives has sacrificed themselves without any hitch and without caring about their respective family members and wards. In other words, they are like our heroes and mentors who can guide us from the darkness of fear, militancy, corruption and other dark sides of life and so on. Now the question arises, if Gandhi would have been alive today, what would have been his reaction/opinion to the police and its functioning? Would he have some thing different in his mind now what he had been in his mind before the partition or would he be going to start some Satyagraha in the form of some improvement in the functioning of the police administration? Really these questions or rather night mares can come to any one’s mind, when there is too much confusion is prevailing in our minds, when there is too much corruption in the society and when the polices working is also in the questioning because of one or the other case throughout the India. It is matter of great concern that we have to thing over our administration and our practical approach because the police personals are also like us, they are part and parcel of our society and among one of us, so why we all are pin pointing towards them.

The key findings of the study suggested that talent management had an impact on employee retention. The studies also found that there is a clear link between the implementation of talent management and retention measures. Management should provide enough training and development for employees, clarify job responsibilities, provide adequate remuneration packages, and recognise employees for exceptional performance.
ATTRITION IN THE IT INDUSTRY DURING COVID-19 PANDEMIC: LINKING EMOTIONAL INTE...IAEME Publication
Globally, Millions of dollars were spent by the organizations for employing skilled Information Technology (IT) professionals. It is costly to replace unskilled employees with IT professionals possessing technical skills and competencies that aid in interconnecting the business processes. The organization’s employment tactics were forced to alter by globalization along with technological innovations as they consistently diminish to remain lean, outsource to concentrate on core competencies along with restructuring/reallocate personnel to gather efficiency. As other jobs, organizations or professions have become reasonably more appropriate in a shifting employment landscape, the above alterations trigger both involuntary as well as voluntary turnover. The employee view on jobs is also afflicted by the COVID-19 pandemic along with the employee-driven labour market. So, having effective strategies is necessary to tackle the withdrawal rate of employees. By associating Emotional Intelligence (EI) along with Talent Management (TM) in the IT industry, the rise in attrition rate was analyzed in this study. Only 303 respondents were collected out of 350 participants to whom questionnaires were distributed. From the employees of IT organizations located in Bangalore (India), the data were congregated. A simple random sampling methodology was employed to congregate data as of the respondents. Generating the hypothesis along with testing is eventuated. The effect of EI and TM along with regression analysis between TM and EI was analyzed. The outcomes indicated that employee and Organizational Performance (OP) were elevated by effective EI along with TM.

By implementing talent management strategy, organizations would have the option to retain their skilled professionals while additionally working on their overall performance. It is the course of appropriately utilizing the ideal individuals, setting them up for future top positions, exploring and dealing with their performance, and holding them back from leaving the organization. It is employee performance that determines the success of every organization. The firm quickly obtains an upper hand over its rivals in the event that its employees having particular skills that cannot be duplicated by the competitors. Thus, firms are centred on creating successful talent management practices and processes to deal with the unique human resources. Firms are additionally endeavouring to keep their top/key staff since on the off chance that they leave; the whole store of information leaves the firm's hands. The study's objective was to determine the impact of talent management on organizational performance among the selected IT organizations in Chennai. The study recommends that talent management limitedly affects performance.

Banking regulations act of India, 1949 defines banking as “acceptance of deposits for the purpose of lending or investment from the public, repayment on demand or otherwise and withdrawable through cheques, drafts order or otherwise”, the major participants of the Indian financial system are commercial banks, the financial institution encompassing term lending institutions. Investments institutions, specialized financial institution and the state level development banks, non banking financial companies (NBFC) and other market intermediaries such has the stock brokers and money lenders are among the oldest of the certain variants of NBFC and the oldest market participants. The asset quality of banks is one of the most important indicators of their financial health. The Indian banking sector has been facing severe problems of increasing Non- Performing Assets (NPAs). The NPAs growth directly and indirectly affects the quality of assets and profitability of banks. It also shows the efficiency of banks credit risk management and the recovery effectiveness. NPA do not generate any income, whereas, the bank is required to make provisions for such as assets that why is a double edge weapon. This paper outlines the concept of quality of bank loans of different types like Housing, Agriculture and MSME loans in state Haryana of selected public and private sector banks. This study is highlighting problems associated with the role of commercial bank in financing Small and Medium Scale Enterprises (SME). The overall objective of the research was to assess the effect of the financing provisions existing for the setting up and operations of MSMEs in the country and to generate recommendations for more robust financing mechanisms for successful operation of the MSMEs, in turn understanding the impact of MSME loans on financial institutions due to NPA. There are many research conducted on the topic of Non- Performing Assets (NPA) Management, concerning particular bank, comparative study of public and private banks etc. In this paper the researcher is considering the aggregate data of selected public sector and private sector banks and attempts to compare the NPA of Housing, Agriculture and MSME loans in state Haryana of public and private sector banks. The tools used in the study are average and Anova test and variance. The findings reveal that NPA is common problem for both public and private sector banks and is associated with all types of loans either that is housing loans, agriculture loans and loans to SMES. NPAs of both public and private sector banks show the increasing trend. In 2010-11 GNPA of public and private sector were at same level it was 2% but after 2010-11 it increased in many fold and at present there is GNPA in some more than 15%. It shows the dark area of Indian banking sector.

An experiment conducted in this study found that BaSO4 changed Nylon 6's mechanical properties. By changing the weight ratios, BaSO4 was used to make Nylon 6. This Researcher looked into how hard Nylon-6/BaSO4 composites are and how well they wear. Experiments were done based on Taguchi design L9. Nylon-6/BaSO4 composites can be tested for their hardness number using a Rockwell hardness testing apparatus. On Nylon/BaSO4, the wear behavior was measured by a wear monitor, pinon-disc friction by varying reinforcement, sliding speed, and sliding distance, and the microstructure of the crack surfaces was observed by SEM. This study provides significant contributions to ultimate strength by increasing BaSO4 content up to 16% in the composites, and sliding speed contributes 72.45% to the wear rate
ROLE OF SOCIAL ENTREPRENEURSHIP IN RURAL DEVELOPMENT OF INDIA - PROBLEMS AND ...IAEME Publication
The majority of the population in India lives in villages. The village is the back bone of the country. Village or rural industries play an important role in the national economy, particularly in the rural development. Developing the rural economy is one of the key indicators towards a country’s success. Whether it be the need to look after the welfare of the farmers or invest in rural infrastructure, Governments have to ensure that rural development isn’t compromised. The economic development of our country largely depends on the progress of rural areas and the standard of living of rural masses. Village or rural industries play an important role in the national economy, particularly in the rural development. Rural entrepreneurship is based on stimulating local entrepreneurial talent and the subsequent growth of indigenous enterprises. It recognizes opportunity in the rural areas and accelerates a unique blend of resources either inside or outside of agriculture. Rural entrepreneurship brings an economic value to the rural sector by creating new methods of production, new markets, new products and generate employment opportunities thereby ensuring continuous rural development. Social Entrepreneurship has the direct and primary objective of serving the society along with the earning profits. So, social entrepreneurship is different from the economic entrepreneurship as its basic objective is not to earn profits but for providing innovative solutions to meet the society needs which are not taken care by majority of the entrepreneurs as they are in the business for profit making as a sole objective. So, the Social Entrepreneurs have the huge growth potential particularly in the developing countries like India where we have huge societal disparities in terms of the financial positions of the population. Still 22 percent of the Indian population is below the poverty line and also there is disparity among the rural & urban population in terms of families living under BPL. 25.7 percent of the rural population & 13.7 percent of the urban population is under BPL which clearly shows the disparity of the poor people in the rural and urban areas. The need to develop social entrepreneurship in agriculture is dictated by a large number of social problems. Such problems include low living standards, unemployment, and social tension. The reasons that led to the emergence of the practice of social entrepreneurship are the above factors. The research problem lays upon disclosing the importance of role of social entrepreneurship in rural development of India. The paper the tendencies of social entrepreneurship in India, to present successful examples of such business for providing recommendations how to improve situation in rural areas in terms of social entrepreneurship development. Indian government has made some steps towards development of social enterprises, social entrepreneurship, and social in- novation, but a lot remains to be improved.
OPTIMAL RECONFIGURATION OF POWER DISTRIBUTION RADIAL NETWORK USING HYBRID MET...IAEME Publication
Distribution system is a critical link between the electric power distributor and the consumers. Most of the distribution networks commonly used by the electric utility is the radial distribution network. However in this type of network, it has technical issues such as enormous power losses which affect the quality of the supply. Nowadays, the introduction of Distributed Generation (DG) units in the system help improve and support the voltage profile of the network as well as the performance of the system components through power loss mitigation. In this study network reconfiguration was done using two meta-heuristic algorithms Particle Swarm Optimization and Gravitational Search Algorithm (PSO-GSA) to enhance power quality and voltage profile in the system when simultaneously applied with the DG units. Backward/Forward Sweep Method was used in the load flow analysis and simulated using the MATLAB program. Five cases were considered in the Reconfiguration based on the contribution of DG units. The proposed method was tested using IEEE 33 bus system. Based on the results, there was a voltage profile improvement in the system from 0.9038 p.u. to 0.9594 p.u.. The integration of DG in the network also reduced power losses from 210.98 kW to 69.3963 kW. Simulated results are drawn to show the performance of each case.

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.
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.

1. INTRODUCTION
Nowdays, performance management is one of the main trends in the development of enterprises
and improvement of production and economic indicators. The idea of performance management
is mainly related to personnel management and consists in the transition from the "command-
and-control" style of production management to more flexible and modern models, when the
employee is guided by the strategic objectives of the enterprise. An important issue is also
reducing of the accidents possibility caused by personnel through the modernization of
measures to ensure industrial safety [1].
Qualitative improvement of the information support system for subsoil use, monitoring and
control through the development of information technologies, including implementation of
automated control and regulation systems, is one of the strategic objectives of Russian
enterprises [2, 3].
A feature of all automated systems introduced at the plants of ferrous and non-ferrous
metallurgy can be considered a systematic approach to all the processes occurring within the
enterprise. These include heat engineering, environmental, metallurgical and management
processes [4, 5, 6]. It is important to build not only the management of thermal processes, but
also to establish their uninterrupted flow. This significantly improves the quality of the product,
saves costs and increases productivity. In the metallurgical industry, the implamentation of
complex automation is justified, which makes it possible to subordinate all areas of enterprise
activity to a single management center. This applies to the department of supply of raw
materials, loading system of furnace, exhaust lines, accounting, technical control, etc.
Professional development and retraining is inherently connected with the development of
specialized educational programs, both within the framework of training complexes and
programs of professional education implemented on the basis of higher educational
institutions [7].
As the level of industrial automation increases, so does the role of operators. If earlier their
activities consisted mainly in manual manipulation, now that many functions are performed
automatically by the distributed control system (DCS), operators are required to have a deeper
understanding of the technological process (TP) and the ability to use all the controls at their
disposal to bring the installation to the most cost-effective mode: with the help of APC-system
(Advanced Process Control) or without it [8, 9].
2. DESIGN AND OPERATION FEATURES
There are several fundamental elements of the simulator that distinguish it from other learning
tools:
1. Model of a real object, created due to the fact that a real object is impossible, dangerous
or expensive to use for training.
3. Interactive Training Simulator as Means of Increasing Efficiency of Enterprises
http://www.iaeme.com/IJMET/index.asp 216 editor@iaeme.com
2. Information model - the environment of student interaction with the object model. With
its help, the trainee acts on the training model and receives information about its condition.
3. Model of learning. Those rules, methods and a certain composition of training exercises
and other attributes of training.
One of the criteria for the quality of the simulator is the ability to transfer training skills to
real activity in a production environment, which depends on the quality of all components of
the simulator, especially on simulation models of the technological process [10, 11].
The principle of achieving such a transfer is to ensure the maximum similarity of the
student's activities in training and in actual practice.
A computer simulator is a software and hardware complex that includes at least:
- a simulating station (it solves a system of algebraic and differential equations describing
the TP model);
- student workstation (they implement an information model);
- instructor workstation (to organize and track the course of training).
In this case, the simulation station, as a rule, is combined on the same PC with the
instructor's, since the characteristics of modern PCs allow multitasking simultaneously and
calculate several training models and implement instructor functions.
Since the training platform is not only a training tool, but also a tool for the development,
configuration and modification of the simulator, an engineering station can be allocated in large
projects. (Usually it is also combined with the instructor station, and system modification
options are available at higher levels of the user). Finally, with a large number of control points
in the simulator, a separate remote control station can be allocated, although these functions
can easily be performed from the instructor station.
The main architectural solution is the use of a local area network, in which the instructor
station is connected to several operator stations. In addition to economic considerations
(efficient use of instructor training time), this approach is explained by similarity requirements.
In the training, as in the real object, the operator must be fully responsible for their TP part:
- from the workplace, there shall be no intervention in the TP or other operators, or
instructors. Moreover, the intervention of an instructor who simulates changes in the external
environment or equipment failures should be unexpected for the trainee, and therefore be
carried out remotely.
- when working out the actions of the change of operators, which is often an important task
of the training, each student should have from his workplace not only access to the management
of the TP assigned to him, but also all information about changes in the behavior of the process
due to the interventions of other operators.
The simulator model is increasingly seen as part of the overall production model within the
concept of "real-time optimization". With this approach, the "full" simulation model of the
technological object is used for technological engineering (checking bottlenecks, checking new
technological modes), and for the engineering of control systems (setting up and testing the
control system; setting up advanced control systems; alarm management), and for knowledge
engineering (operator training), and for other purposes.
In this regard, it is possible that the simulators may become in the future as a part of the
systems for a wider purpose.
Achievements of engineering psychology in the field of construction of effective schemes
of computer training of operator skills are transformed into fundamentally new capabilities of
instructor stations (automated systems for the formation of individual and complex skills;
automated testing systems, etc.).

3. MANUFACTURERS
The main manufacturers of simulators often are manufacturers of control systems (such as
ABB, Invensys, Honeywell), having simulator production departments.
Since one of the main motives of the order for the simulator is the modernization or change
of the control system, it is the manufacturer of the control system that has more chances to
ensure the desired quality of the simulator, especially since many of these companies
increasingly have rights to all or most of the products included in the simulator. The most
striking example is Schneider Electric Corporation, which in January 2014 completed the
acquisition of Invensys, which owns a well-known supplier of DCS (Foxboro), and a model
developer (SimSci), as well as a developer of SCADA-interfaces (InTouch).
Also, a company specializing in fundamental modeling of technological processes (TP),
such as Aspen and Hyprotech (with its own training solutions), can become a manufacturer of
simulators. The strength of such a developer - rich libraries of training models.
Another example of simulator manufacturers is technology companies (UOP, KBC) or their
associated training companies (RSI as part of AXENS). In the case of a simulator for a newly
constructed facility, these manufacturers have exclusive technological information, sometimes
inaccessible to competitors.
4. ECONOMIC ASPECTS
Technology simulator equipped with the tools of economic analysis – an excellent tool of
training of the operators of the productive economy.
There is another aspect of the use of simulators in the enterprise, which is most directly
related to economists – the cost.
As for the cost of training complexes, foreign manufacturers have them within 200-1000
thousand dollars for specialized one process unit simulator. The cost of standard TP models is
usually several times less than specialized ones. Russian manufacturers systems, while
remaining an expensive product, however, on average several times cheaper [9, 12].
The recoupment of simulators can be ensured by a general decrease in the accident rate and
an increase in the quality of TP control. There are estimates based on global emergency incident
statistics. For example, it is estimated that if the acquisition of a computer simulator with a set
of models of the main installations of an oil refinery avoids at least one emergency incident
caused by the operator out of every three, then the payback period of the entire training complex
will be approximately 1 year.
Companies like DuPont or Exxon-Mobil have been using computer training for over 30
years. As an additional economic benefit from the use of simulators DuPont notes energy
savings (up to 0.5%). And the US Petroleum Institute (API), based on a survey of 200 managers
at 11 enterprises of 7 petrochemical companies, estimated the average profit from the training
of one operator on computer simulators at 21 thousand dollars per year.
5. CONCLUSION
Analysis of trends in the development of the interactive simulators market indicates the interest
of the world industry in such means of training of operational personnel in the oil and gas,
metallurgical and other industries. The development of TP imitation models will improve the
methods of training operators and, as a consequence, reduce the impact of the human factor on
the safety of industrial facilities, and increase the economic efficiency of the enterprises.
