Fabricating equipment in-house for School of Engineering & Technology (AU/PROJ/2020/03)
2
Description: To prepare a roadmap for a School of Engineering & Technology that is futuristic with enhanced visibility and better student experiences
3
Objective: To fabricate, assemble, develop equipment/prototypes in-house (pan-university level) by the faculty/technical support/students. The intent is to offer opportunities of action-based peer-to-peer learning, collaboration, hands-on experience, and cross-disciplinary interaction, and develop a sense of achievement and learning-by-doing.

2A single board portable computer for testing computer vision applications in practical environmentThe goal of the project is augment laboratories like computer vision and machine learning to allow students to work with visual data collected from real life surrounding instead of a predefined limited set of images collected from the internet.The implementation will involve assembling a raspberry pi based portable single board computer along with an embedded camera. This can be used by students to build computer vision or machine learning applications that can work on live data collected from the field. The project deliverable shall also include an API specifically designed to work in tandem with the laboratory assignments. Students, Faculty Members, Research ScholarsSwarnendu Ghosh and StudentsCSE, ECE3/31/2021INR 20,000

3Flow Net ModelThe effect of seepage of water through
the soil is a common case we deal with during design of foundation or any hydraulic structure. To study this effect we need to understand the path of flow along which it travels into the soil. In most of the cases flow lines and equipotential lines are drawn based on the judgement of Engineers (using theoritical concept) and after that several trials are made to reach at the satisfactory diagram eliminating minor inaccuracies. To avoid this, a small prototype is devised with simple boundary condition from which we can get exact flow path which will facilitate to draw the flow lines and minimize the errors. To demonstrate this phenomenon we devised a model to observe the flow path or lines into the soil.

4Impact Testing Machine In reinforced concrete design an important consideration that can be added to the requirements of strength and serviceability is ductility. This consideration is of importance to determine the amount of redistribution of moment that is possible in limited state design. Also, it is of importance in seismic design because to survive a severe earthquake, a structure should be capable of absorbing and dissipating energy by post-elastic deformations. To have an idea about the energy dissipation and ductility, it is essential to conduct impact test.Researchers, Faculty, Students / Consultants and Structural Engineers for Considering Seismic Consideration during Design of Structures Project Head: Dr. T.

5Abrasive Jet Machining (AJM) Experimental SetupAbrasive jet Machining is one of the non-traditional manufacturing technologies. In this machining process, the abrasive particles are mixed with compressed air/gas, and a high velocity jet of this mixture hits the workpiece in a regualted manner. This high velocity jet is utilized to remove material with high level of accuracy and precision through a better control of the process parameters. The fabricated set up can be used to conduct a number of experimental studies on evaluation of MRR while varying the process parameters, namely, stand-off distance, jet angle, gas pressure, grain size and type, nozzle diameter. As an extension of the work, in second phase, the work table can be servo controlled to machine complex contours on the workpiece.

10Fabrication of Hot plate for regular laboraty useHot plate is an extremely useful instrument for any chemical laboratory. In pharmacy there are several synthetic chemistry which requires a high temperature upto 150 degree Celsius. The construction is fairly straightforward which requires a conductor plate, a heating element and a control unit.Any laboratory that requires heating of a closed systemSaptarshi Sanyal, Biswajit Ghosh Dastidar1.
