Sustainability in terms of reducing finite source losses in solar plants like water and energy has been concentrated on. The direct methodologies have been intelligently designed to modify conventional practices and use it towards the benefit of the plant such as rain water harvesting and passive cooling systems for buildings. The existing design has been evolved at every step of the plant development so that the consumption or the dependence of the plant on external energy sources is reduced or cut down completely. Case studies dealing on both the issues reveal the challenges faced, possible best solutions, key learnings and the adoption of these methods in the plant design right from the planning stage. The indirect methodologies are solutions proposed and to be developed in a view to build structures that are ground adapting in PV plants and to stabilize the soil in arid areas prone to heavy winds and sand storms so that the soiling losses in the modules or reflectors are reduced.","PeriodicalId":156695,"journal":{"name":"2014 IEEE Region 10 Humanitarian Technology Conference (R10 HTC)","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126911908","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The resistance heating consumes more electrical power. So we have proposed a method to deal with the aluminum alloy casting, using induction heating (IH) capable of rapid heating. The expectation for the system is to be applied to industry. Therefore, the system used in factories actually, is required to have equivalent temperature rise, which to the same resistance heating furnace. Because of elucidating the differences with resistance heating furnace can be proved that it has the performance or more. We clarify and problems of the induction heating method described in previous studies, we propose a system of the heating method as an improvement to the current system. As the results of the comparison and consideration of conventional method and the proposed method, we clarified that the proposed method is superior. We report a study about the system of induction heating type indirect heating furnace.","PeriodicalId":156695,"journal":{"name":"2014 IEEE Region 10 Humanitarian Technology Conference (R10 HTC)","volume":"39 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114710900","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In order to do so, it is important to approach the problem from a behavioural, technical and policy aspects. To begin with, we consider electricity as one resource in the campus of an educational institute. In this paper we describe our approach to model a university campus as a socio-technical system and demonstrate the model through a prototype. In the model, agents in the campus attempt to distribute the load based on these parameters while simultaneously attempting to save electricity. Using the simulation we present the results for multiple scenarios of operation ranging from business-as-usual to a conservative system in the IIIT Bangalore campus.","PeriodicalId":156695,"journal":{"name":"2014 IEEE Region 10 Humanitarian Technology Conference (R10 HTC)","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127958326","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Radio frequency (RF) system based non-invasive measurement methods neither confines nor cause distress as conventional vital sign measurement methods to the human being. This aspect of non-invasive detection becomes predominantly significantfor long-term continuous monitoring of vital signs of human being. The paper reports a reconfigurable multiband NIVSD RF system for effective use of available frequency bands without increasing the size, cost and power consumption level of the system. The proposed system simultaneously operates in entire WLAN band. Experimentally, it has been observed that 2.48-/5.15-GHz frequency band is found better in terms of low radiation power; while 2.48-/5.35-GHz band is better in terms of receivingpower at the antenna.","PeriodicalId":156695,"journal":{"name":"2014 IEEE Region 10 Humanitarian Technology Conference (R10 HTC)","volume":"36 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134225465","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A predominant method of communication is to have a chart of pictures or letters/words and make the individual point to the particular picture or letter. For individuals with limited mobility, a partner is usually employed, who points and reads the item one by one in the chart. When the particular item is pointed, the individual indicates an yes choice through some means such as eye-blinking. In this paper, we have described an initiative called SABARI, where technology has been used to replace the partner. In other words, the computer acts as a partner, highlighting the item one by one and when the particular item is highlighted, the individual presses the switch or moves a body part to activate the switch. We have developed several software applications based on this methodology and some of these are being used by Vidyasagar (Formerly called Spastic Society of India).","PeriodicalId":156695,"journal":{"name":"2014 IEEE Region 10 Humanitarian Technology Conference (R10 HTC)","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130793033","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The wind power is converted into electrical power using a DC generator, which develops voltage as a function of the wind speed. A regulating circuit is used to supply constant voltage to energize rechargeable batteries, which can power up LED torchlight. In the present work, a 6\" two-bladed propeller with a 24V DC generator and a three-bladed 6\" wind turbine with a 12V DC-generator were tested in a low speed wind tunnel at the National Aerospace Laboratories, Bangalore, in the range 0-20m/s. During tests, the wind turbine developed a power of about 1.5W at about 15m/s, whereas the propeller developed comparable power at a higher wind speed. The wind turbine started at lower wind speeds compared to the propeller. The wind turbine was found to be superior at lower speeds, generating sufficient to charge multiple 1.2V re-chargeable batteries in the range 5-10m/s, making it more suitable for bicycles. During daytime when light is not required, the wind turbine can charge the batteries. During night times when light is required, the wind torch can charge the batteries as well as support the load of the LED lights. Even though the device may marginally increase the aerodynamic drag, a net gain occurs since the tyre friction of the conventional dynamo is totally avoided. Even though the primary target is to provide light to cyclists, the device can also be used to charge cell phone batteries and such applications.","PeriodicalId":156695,"journal":{"name":"2014 IEEE Region 10 Humanitarian Technology Conference (R10 HTC)","volume":"104 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117125662","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
