Industry 4.0 represents the fourth industrial revolution in manufacturing and industry. Industry 4.0 is the current industrial transformation with automation, data exchanges, cloud, cyber-physical systems, robots, Big Data, AI, IoT and (semi-)autonomous industrial techniques to realize smart industry and manufacturing goals in the intersection of people, new technologies and innovation. IoT (Internet of Things), the convergence of IT and OT, rapid application development, digital twin simulation models, cyber-physical systems, advanced robots and cobots, additive manufacturing, autonomous production, consistent engineering across the entire value chain, thorough data collection and provisioning, horizontal and vertical integration, the cloud, big data analytics, virtual/augmented reality and edge computing amidst a shift of intelligence towards the edge (artificial intelligence indeed with a convergence of AI and IoT and other technologies): these are some of the essential technological components of the fourth industrial revolution. Those are quite a lot of terms and components indeed. Yet, Industry 4.0 is a rather vast vision and, increasingly, a vast reality that also stretches beyond merely these technological aspects. It is an end-to-end industrial transformation.

A transaction processing system (TPS) collects, stores, modifies, and retrieves data about business transactions. It must pass the ACID test, ensuring atomicity, consistency, isolation, and durability of transactions. There are two types - batch processing, where data is collected and processed periodically, and real-time processing, where data is processed immediately. The transaction processing cycle involves data entry, processing transactions, maintaining databases, generating documents and reports, and allowing for inquiries. The overall purpose is to keep records of the organization, process transactions that affect those records, and produce reports.

It provides an example of how EBMgt could be applied to the issue of absence management in an organization.
An ERP system unifies database input, processing and retrieval across business units. ERP applications are deployed across locations and have three areas: a centralized database, clients that input data and submit requests, and an application component connecting clients and database. Enterprise architecture translates business vision into effective enterprise change by defining models of the future state and evolution. The two main ERP architectures are two-tier, where the server handles applications and database, and three-tier client/server, where database and application functions are separated, requiring two network connections between client, application server and database server.

Embedded machine learning-based road conditions and driving behavior monitoringIJECEIAES
Car accident rates have increased in recent years, resulting in losses in human lives, properties, and other financial costs. An embedded machine learning-based system is developed to address this critical issue. The system can monitor road conditions, detect driving patterns, and identify aggressive driving behaviors. The system is based on neural networks trained on a comprehensive dataset of driving events, driving styles, and road conditions. The system effectively detects potential risks and helps mitigate the frequency and impact of accidents. The primary goal is to ensure the safety of drivers and vehicles. Collecting data involved gathering information on three key road events: normal street and normal drive, speed bumps, circular yellow speed bumps, and three aggressive driving actions: sudden start, sudden stop, and sudden entry. The gathered data is processed and analyzed using a machine learning system designed for limited power and memory devices. The developed system resulted in 91.9% accuracy, 93.6% precision, and 92% recall. The achieved inference time on an Arduino Nano 33 BLE Sense with a 32-bit CPU running at 64 MHz is 34 ms and requires 2.6 kB peak RAM and 139.9 kB program flash memory, making it suitable for resource-constrained embedded systems.

Gas agency management system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
The project entitled "Gas Agency" is done to make the manual process easier by making it a computerized system for billing and maintaining stock. The Gas Agencies get the order request through phone calls or by personal from their customers and deliver the gas cylinders to their address based on their demand and previous delivery date. This process is made computerized and the customer's name, address and stock details are stored in a database. Based on this the billing for a customer is made simple and easier, since a customer order for gas can be accepted only after completing a certain period from the previous delivery. This can be calculated and billed easily through this. There are two types of delivery like domestic purpose use delivery and commercial purpose use delivery. The bill rate and capacity differs for both. This can be easily maintained and charged accordingly.
Applications of artificial Intelligence in Mechanical Engineering.pdfAtif Razi
Historically, mechanical engineering has relied heavily on human expertise and empirical methods to solve complex problems. With the introduction of computer-aided design (CAD) and finite element analysis (FEA), the field took its first steps towards digitization. These tools allowed engineers to simulate and analyze mechanical systems with greater accuracy and efficiency. However, the sheer volume of data generated by modern engineering systems and the increasing complexity of these systems have necessitated more advanced analytical tools, paving the way for AI.

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

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.

ABSTRACT
In-cylinder fluid dynamics exert significant influence on the performance and emission
characteristics of Direct Injection (DI) diesel engines. Detailed simulation of the various
features of the in-cylinder fluid motion including heat transfer and combustion processes
has now become an achievable goal using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD)
methodology, an area which is developing for more than a decade.
In the present work, computational fluid dynamics investigation on in-cylinder flow for
non-reacting as well as firing condition in a DI diesel engine using different types of
inlet manifolds has been carried out. The employed three-dimensional computational
domains, constitute of the intake manifold, combustion chamber and the exhaust
manifold so that a complete engine cycle can be simulated.
To start with, a study on the effect of manifold configurations on in-cylinder flow and
combustion has been carried out on an engine geometry, for which experimental
measurements are available. Validation of simulated results with experimental data
available in the literature is presented.

CHAPTER 1
INTRODUCTION
Fuel economy demands and pollution threats have posed serious challenges to the design and
development of new generation diesel engines. The performances of the diesel engines are
enhanced by proper design of inlet and exhaust manifolds. In this, inlet manifold is mainly
responsible for inducting appropriate amount of air into the cylinder. It should be the
endeavor of the designer to see that maximum volumetric efficiency is obtained. At the same
time, the design should be in such a way that it creates larger turbulence and swirl.
Direct Injection (DI) diesel engine with new intake system, turbocharger and after
treatment arrangement to meet latest emission regulations and fuel economy is found to
be very attractive for automotive applications.
Simulation of IC engine using CFD is comparatively quite difficult since it involves
complex
