The CICABLOC® system is designed to be used in place of traditional formwork. It consists of assembling formwork blocks with staggered vertical joints. To assemble, the blocks are simply unfolded and interlocked on the spot. The whole structure is then filled with concrete and set.

Project bowstring : A perspective on revitalizing Janata BazaarNishanth Patil
PROBLEM STATEMENT :
Janata Bazar located in the heart of Hubli city is a prime hub for small time vendors and traders. It is spread over 1.76 acres of prime commercial land, housing makeshift shops and a couple of buildings in dilapidated condition. The market is plagued by problems such as congestion, poor pedestrian circulation, poor fire safety, and lack of civic amenities. All of these problems have contributed towards the slum like conditions prevailing here today.
To solve a problem of this nature it is imperative to seek a consensus between the needs of the stakeholders, viz. the resident vendors and traders, Municipal Corporation and other Direct and Indirect Beneficiaries before any sort of plan is brought forward.
SCOPE :
i. To address all the above grievances and put forth an economically viable solution involving conjoint efforts from government and private enterprise.
ii. To untap the economic potential of the area.
iii. To proffer an urban renewal model on strong fundamentals to ensure sustenance and ergo give healthy returns to all key stakeholders.
iv. To study consumer behaviour and ensure generation of projected earnings.
CONCLUSION :
Segregation of land along a tripartite manner i.e. Resident occupation of land, land for the proposed mall and land for community parking is mainstreamed.
The core proposal involves multi-modal infrastructure consisting of a stadia arrangement to house the resident vendors, a separate commercial hub for the resident traders and a shopping mall consisting of a G+4 structure with 2 levels of sub-surface dedicated parking arrangement.
The stadia arrangement for the resident vendors is designed to rehabilitate, rejuvenate and renew the scenario. Surprisingly enough, the capacity has been increased by 15% in the dedicated vendor space. Realistic loading patterns conforming to projected footfalls and deflections have been incorporated.
With this proposal we like to present a model of urban re-development which is both replicable and executable in other areas facing such scenarios, thus creating ‘economically productive, efficient, equitable and responsive cities’.

Understanding Inductive Bias in Machine LearningSUTEJAS
This presentation explores the concept of inductive bias in machine learning. It explains how algorithms come with built-in assumptions and preferences that guide the learning process. You'll learn about the different types of inductive bias and how they can impact the performance and generalizability of machine learning models.
The presentation also covers the positive and negative aspects of inductive bias, along with strategies for mitigating potential drawbacks. We'll explore examples of how bias manifests in algorithms like neural networks and decision trees.
By understanding inductive bias, you can gain valuable insights into how machine learning models work and make informed decisions when building and deploying them.
Using recycled concrete aggregates (RCA) for pavements is crucial to achieving sustainability. Implementing RCA for new pavement can minimize carbon footprint, conserve natural resources, reduce harmful emissions, and lower life cycle costs. Compared to natural aggregate (NA), RCA pavement has fewer comprehensive studies and sustainability assessments.
HEAP SORT ILLUSTRATED WITH HEAPIFY, BUILD HEAP FOR DYNAMIC ARRAYS.
Heap sort is a comparison-based sorting technique based on Binary Heap data structure. It is similar to the selection sort where we first find the minimum element and place the minimum element at the beginning. Repeat the same process for the remaining elements.

Hierarchical Digital Twin of a Naval Power SystemKerry Sado
A hierarchical digital twin of a Naval DC power system has been developed and experimentally verified. Similar to other state-of-the-art digital twins, this technology creates a digital replica of the physical system executed in real-time or faster, which can modify hardware controls. However, its advantage stems from distributing computational efforts by utilizing a hierarchical structure composed of lower-level digital twin blocks and a higher-level system digital twin. Each digital twin block is associated with a physical subsystem of the hardware and communicates with a singular system digital twin, which creates a system-level response. By extracting information from each level of the hierarchy, power system controls of the hardware were reconfigured autonomously. This hierarchical digital twin development offers several advantages over other digital twins, particularly in the field of naval power systems. The hierarchical structure allows for greater computational efficiency and scalability while the ability to autonomously reconfigure hardware controls offers increased flexibility and responsiveness. The hierarchical decomposition and models utilized were well aligned with the physical twin, as indicated by the maximum deviations between the developed digital twin hierarchy and the hardware.
A review on techniques and modelling methodologies used for checking electrom...nooriasukmaningtyas
The proper function of the integrated circuit (IC) in an inhibiting electromagnetic environment has always been a serious concern throughout the decades of revolution in the world of electronics, from disjunct devices to today’s integrated circuit technology, where billions of transistors are combined on a single chip. The automotive industry and smart vehicles in particular, are confronting design issues such as being prone to electromagnetic interference (EMI). Electronic control devices calculate incorrect outputs because of EMI and sensors give misleading values which can prove fatal in case of automotives. In this paper, the authors have non exhaustively tried to review research work concerned with the investigation of EMI in ICs and prediction of this EMI using various modelling methodologies and measurement setups.
