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

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.

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….

The Faroe Islands' Netflix corporate den must transform the meaning of work for its employees by enabling new architectural identities, changing workspace attributes, a collaborative atmosphere, and offering opportunities for socio-cultural exchange. 'The Faroe frame' takes a twofold approach to be an Icon, paying homage to the Faroe region's socio-physical characteristics in every dimension conceivable, whether through the "Form that frames," the "Facade that reflects," the "Podium that connects," or the "Bridge that invites". Internally, the architecture takes inspiration from the geology of the Faroe Islands itself to create a space that flows like a continuous landscape at various levels, connected by intermittent bridges and staircases, with multi-level atriums and stepped spaces that create a sense of dynamism and community in the users.

KV Parmeshwar srishtik20@aoamumbai.in Studio Conductors Ar.K.V Parmeshwar : : : : : : : : : : : Steel reinforcement gives a concrete structure the stability it needs. Steel and concrete act together to increase the structure's strength that withstands the induced forces. The exercise conducted was to verify this theory. Here, two similar concrete slabs were made. Wire mesh, which acts as a reinforcement, is added in one of the concrete slabs, and the other one remains without it. These slabs are then dropped from a height of 5 feet where the reinforced slab remained intact, whereas the other one shattered into fragments. This activity proves that the steel provides the tensile strength needed for the concrete and secures the construction firmly. P.O.P: trials to assess

Nitesh Avhad : : : : : : : : : : : The Site was located at the Beruit Port affected by the Accidental blast, which destroyed most of its infrastructure, and the port became a ground zero for one of the worst tragedies faced by Lebanon. The idea of this project was to create design iterations as fast as possible, along with thinking about construction techniques and feasibility of material given the conditions on site. An edge on the port was selected to facilitate recreational activities on that front, creating a shelter for activities to happen below, having larger spans and more free space below, thus creating a much better transition between the outside and inside. These factors and the flow of people throughout the site allowed us to reiterate the form of the structure, along with material and construction factors, these parameters strongly dictated the form and member intervals of the structure, creating relevant details and how the structural members work was also one of the factors.
