Parameshar palak19@aoamumbai.in : : : : : : : : : Electricity is the flow of electric power or charge. It is the set of physical phenomena associated with the presence and motion of matter that has the property of electric charge. Production of Electricity SIMPLE GENERATOR DYNAMO A voltage is produced when a magnet moves in a coil of wire. Generators induce a current by spinning a wire of wire inside a magnetic field or spinning a magnet inside a coil of wire. As this happens a potential difference is produced between the ends of a coil which causes a current to flow. THREE-PHASE ELECTRICITY Three-phase electric power is a common method of alternating current power generation, transmission, and distribution. It is a type of polyphase system. THERMAL POWER GENERATION The burning of fuels such as oil, coal, and LNG (liquefied natural gas) fires a boiler to generate high-temperature, high-pressure steam. This steam is used to drive a steam turbine. A generator attached to the steam turbine generates electricity. STEAM POWER GENERATION Fuels such as heavy oil, LNG (liquefied natural gas), and coal are burned inside a boiler to generate steam at high temperatures and high pressure. This steam is used to rotate the impeller of the steam turbine. This drives the power generators connected to the turbine that generates electricity. This system has a thermal efficiency of around 42% to 46% and functions as a base-to-middle-load supply. Sources of Electricity 1

Richa Raut, Ar. Saurabh Jain, Ar. Rohit Karekar, Ar. Shekoba Sanap : : : : : : : : : : : The project aims to give architectural experiences to the users that are framed around natural elements like the sky, vegetation, land, and the lake present on the site. These elements are seen everywhere but are not experienced to the fullest, especially in the cities. The users mainly come from the cities; hence the idea was to give them a maximum experience of the diverse nature. Being an intervention in a site full of diverse nature, architecture has been designed to enhance and complement this nature, also being impactful and not just volumes placed on the site. The aim was to keep the architecture simple, informal, and elegant avoiding any kind of complexity. The rigid orthogonal form makes a strong and bold impact on the sloping contours with a sloping roof from all four sides giving a varying volumetric experience. The color palette is a neutral palette to blend and compliment the setting. The architectural elements have been used for different kinds of experiences and functions.

For our group, we chose the egg crate as our product. In the graphic, we have shown the life cycle of an egg crate, right from the sourcing of materials to make it, right upto the end of its life cycle, i.e, in our dustbins. It would be meaningless to talk about the life cycle of the crate alone, since without the eggs it is not a viable product. Hence the graphic shows both life cycles simultaneously, for a better understanding of the processes involved in the making of this product, which has one of the highest daily selling numbers across the globe. The term life ‘cycle’ portrays that its life does not end at our dustbins. The nature of the product is such that it is 100% recyclable, and the first step of sourcing the materials begins from collection of these crates from the garbage itself. Egg Crate

Previous Next Timeless Mesh (Editor's Choice Award) Email Semester Competition Name Student Name Vaishnavi Siddhapara, Siddhi Shinde Uni Terra Terra V vaishnavis19@aoamumbai.in siddhi19@aoamumbai.in : : : : : : : Competition Brief: The aim of the Competition is to design a pavillion with the help of the compuatational design softwares. Narrative: The project intends to create a pavilion that is used as a breakout and an informal meeting space that acts as a forum for social interaction. The design started with keeping 3 factors in mind - sustainability, easy installation, and interactive space. A SPACE BECOMES A PLACE WHEN IT'S NOT ONLY MEANT FOR SPENDING TIME BUT TO RECOLLECT THE TIME SPENT IN IT. To allow the public to experience this pavilion we thought of using simple elements like structure, form and its sensitivity, light, and shadow, material and its lightness, and an element of surprise. A place that encourages healthy exchange could be done by incorporating functions like small gathering spaces that also act as an event, informal workspace, a space for recreation, lounging, and mini food stations. So we developed an assembly that requires a minimum of materials and can be tailor-made by anyone. This pavilion is meant to be agile and deployed in various sites all across the globe thus requiring a module system will require easy installation. Thus our design creates a timeless mesh. The play of light and shadow with the movement of the user creates a juxtaposition, permitting the users to reshape their own physical and architectural place through their movements inside the work.

Narrative: The world is engulfed with unending stories all around. The notion applies not only to humans, but each living creature, as well as a non-living object that exists. The existence of one forms a story in itself. All existing ingredients of this world play a role knowingly or unknowingly in these narrations. A story can be categorized into multiple divisions. Broadly, we can summarize them as, [a] a story that somehow evolves over the time based on some incidents that takes up its form through exaggerations & cooked up details, which can be termed as rumors. [b] a story that is told from ages which eventually doesn’t confine itself to just a storyline, but becomes a belief, ritual or a superstition that can be termed as mythological fictions. [c] a story that we live daily, nothing but our experiences. As such, these stories can be placed on a timeline irrespective of its factual nature. This timeline helps us understand the originality and additions that occur to the story and how a narrative unfolds. This crucial fluidity allows for permutations and combinations to exist that help us curate our own platform to explore and read the world in our own way.

Narrative: Starting our research by showrooms, we analyzed spaces planned and requirements for each space. The site proposed is located in an urban context consisting of a Hero Moto Corp service showroom, which catered to the extra space required for the service area. The process started with form development, a basic cuboidal form with the addition of a mezzanine floor, which gave an overhang to the front glass facade which protected interiors from the extreme harsh sun. Also, a rectangular plan allows less negative spaces and more space utilization. The zoning of spaces is done ensuring optimal use of built space and catering to the user traffic. Considering road junctions in the urban context, the front and west side facades are provided with a glass glazing wall. This provides visual access to the pedestrians, thus captivating customers and increasing footfall. A newly launched model is displayed on a circular podium opposite the entrance. A band of red stripes, meandering about the floor gives a sense of flow. A sense of unification between the interiors is observed through the element of stripes. The light element provides a bold backdrop to the display models. The entire space was planned to satisfy every user's requirements, thus maintaining the user and space engagement.

Amey Ghosalkar : : : : : : : : : : : This exercise was based on explorations in 3d compositions usings RCC cement as a material. We were taught to use the right amount of proportions to mix aggregate, water and cement to prepare the slurry. The initial ideas were based on sketches and smaller file-card models. Once the composition was fixed, final step was to make a cast to pour the concrete mixture in it. There were two types of models spanning along width and height. The sun board models fixed with adhesives were used as cement casts. After a couple of days they were demoulded when they were completely dried off, and the process was documented in the form of a video.

Dhaval Jain : : : : : : : : : : : The aim of the proposal is to create a design that facilitates a symbiotic relationship between the city and the port through the means of integrating the public into the site. The goal is to create a space that recognizes the vast history of the city of beirut and through design acknowledges and builds on the resilience shown by the city. It is to destigmatize the functioning of a port by intervening into a highly private zone using public activities, allowing for better Integration without Intrusion. This facilitates the smooth functioning of the port while allowing the public to be part of the system. Different public amenities are provided to further economic development at a micro scale and promoting public investment, in both a tangible and intangible way, while allowing for the culture and history of beirut to be magnified via the built form as well as the functions of the space.
