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

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

But in the case of the port of Beirut; time is of the essence. Continuing from the ruins and adding value to the place. The main idea of this project was to create a long-span structure that responds to the context of Beirut, the tragic explosion that occurred in 2020. The master planning started with a focal point , that is the silos ruins and expanded with the principles of user centric design. While developing the planning, a major component was the design of informal public spaces . Making sure the privacy of the port is not hindered , at the same time making the port more accessible as a leisure space. The aim was to develop the site as an active space. Masterplan for the port

Amey Mhatre : : : : : : : : : : : This was our final project of the first year and thus one of the most important. This project challenged and tested our knowledge which we gained through the course of the year. First, we were introduced to a bunch of diverse artists and their works. We had an extensive one-to-one session with them where we interacted and tried to understand their ideologies and what goes on in their mind when they make their art. The artist assigned to me was Teja Gavankar for whom I had to design a studio space. A lot of process and research was involved which helped me come to my final design. First, we had to do a thorough research on our artist and understand their art. Next, we had to diagrammatically represent their works by giving it a spatial quality. Next, we had to start exploring those diagrams by converting them into forms and spaces which eventually lead to the final design. This design project demanded a lot of thought and implementation of all our previous exercises. Previous Next Intersecting Spaces

We focused on different aspects of the ball, such as its making, uses, material, evolution, and effect on the economy. Billiards, being an indoor sport, has a lot going on behind its manufacturing as the table, the ball, and the cue stick are each made of three different materials. The ball, being smooth and shiny, is more dense than it appears to be. Billiard balls and the physics behind the rolling of the ball on the table somehow make the sport unique in its own way. The exercise helped us understand how different materials are being used in a single sport and how different these manufacturing processes are. Billiard Ball

Narrative: The proposal of the Bungalow was conceptualized for a couple in their 50’s. Before the pandemic, they were living in their apartment in the city of Chennai. Up until their 50’s, they have experienced a hectic urban life. During the pandemic as they shift to work from home mode and a few years are left for their retirement so they decide to move to Pondicherry.The proposed design tries to incorporate spirituality in the spaces so as to enhance their post-urban city life. The planning is based on the traditional Indian courtyard house. The only difference being is that an open plan is adapted so as to have transparency between spaces. The design proposal has an RCC framed structure with filler slab – clay pot technology. The walls of the house are made from CSEB (Compressed Stabilized Earth Blocks). This ensures a tranquil sense in spaces. The scale of the spaces; light; exposed materials; open plan and interior elements are used to ensure a sense of spirituality throughout the spaces. The main intent is to make the user adapt to large spaces; tranquility and spirituality as opposed to small apartments so as to enhance the post retirement experience.

The site has a couple of structures, the architect's house, chapel, pergola and pavilion zone, Atelier (art gallery), Loggia (semi-open arcade that the architect used as art-making space) The remaining site of 400 thousand sq.m. has rich vegetation with 3,500 species of Tropical and subtropical plants found out of which most of them are Brazilian native. 53 species named after him can be seen here! Peculiar features of landscape design are - A pop of color in the landscape to drive focus The layering of heights of plants to create foreground, midground & background. Texture arrangement to make spaces look larger or smaller. Using colors to define vivid moods and emotions in users in different zones A great place to study and experience the landscape in its raw, natural yet manicured form. Fazenda Capoava de Itu

Every household and every resident of each city and town should make it their habit to segregate waste into Wet/ kitchen waste, Dry Domestic waste, and Hazardous Domestic waste. 1. Taking Dry waste, for instance, Dry waste can be easily reused and recycled hence there should be an encouragement to reuse and recycle this waste. 2. The domestic hazardous waste should be burnt and converted to energy and fuels instead of dumping them in landfills 3. The wet waste should be used to make the soil fertile using vermicomposting and not thrown in compost pits. These are some of how waste can be reduced, reused, and recycled Ek din ki CM

The story involved varied landscape settings, from the wild dense forests to the elegant gardens and opulent caves. These descriptions added a strong visual quality to the story, serving as background to adventure, awe, love, and power. The transitions in the flora throughout the journey highlight the multiplicity and ruggedness balanced with the beauty of the lesser Himalayas and the Alaknanda river basin. The playful topography of dense Khirsu forests consist of the tall deodar trees, the flowers in the valleys, and the still covered pond-formed. The perceived order of the manicured garden and the formation of the cave palace shows the richness that landscapes of mythology embody. Previous Next Where Saugandhika Grows….
