Objective :
1.Set up an automated system to empty the garbage bin when it is full. 2.Set up a control room near the residential area/public places which will coordinate in the proper operation of the solid waste treatment plant.
The objective of the system configuration (Fig. 1) is to efficiently transfer nanoscale and molecular networking information between a conventional communication systems.
Rather than access a conventional communication systems, only the data not on the conventional communication systems is accessed from the switch.
Present invention in general relates to design and implement a mechanical device for modern pick-up mechanism utilizing hydraulic system and in particular to design a hoisting device that is hydraulic dump system of the pick-up bed.
Unloading of the regular pick-up is not easy,
The purpose of this invention is the separation of liquid and solid phases of different densities by rotation of a cylinder in order to subject them to centrifugal forces. Centrifugal pumps suffer from and are limited by problems with cavitation, corrosion, impeller wear, lack of prime, leakage, overheating,
Background
Abnormal heart rate or rhythm (dysrhythmia) is a common medical disorder worldwide. In its severe form it causes about 600,000 deaths annually. The ultimate treatment for this life threatening condition is ablation (burning) of the tissue that generates the chaotic electrical activity inside the heart.
Streaming analytics is both an art and a science of sophistication as it involves software engineering to implement machine learning for predictive analysis. In order to spread the usefulness of good streaming analytics across the backbone of our industrial sector, the mid-sized businesses,
Dental flossing is very important for preventive healthcare. It cost very little but does require commitment. I invented and patented the Dental Floss Dispenser with Clip, which attaches dental floss to a toothpaste tube. This aids in the commitment part of flossing for good health.
A wave-powered electrical generator (WPEG) of novel design is proposed. WPEG operates by harnessing energy from the water waves, i.e., from an environmentally friendly source of energy. Briefly, WPEG consists of a geared motor-generator, accommodated by a double-cone, which is rolling on two eccentric circular rails.
Till date very little has been reported about the issues of Hirakud Dam. Increasing deterioration of soil in the catchments is causing erosion of the subsoil, resulting in Sedimentation and Siltation, Largescale water-logging, seepage and unscientific water distribution system are only a few to name. In addition,
Iron is a critical mineral for motor and cognitive development; a deficiency can lead to anemia, which can trigger other illnesses. The World Health Organization (WHO) reports 30% of the global population as anemic with the majority being children and pregnant women. Furthermore,
