Fostering Creativity and Innovations among

Engineering Students With the rapid progress of modern civilization, creativity and innovation

within a techno-economic perspective are becoming the major driving

forces behind the sustainability of economic growth and competitive

achievements. There has been much discussion in recent years on the need

for creative and innovative engineers for the industries and the associated

need for engineering institutions to foster creative thinking ability in their

students. There is general agreement; however, that creativity involves the

ability to put things (words, concepts, methods, devices) together in novel

ways. Many techniques have been suggested for exercising creativity and

developing problem-solving skills in the classroom. According to Alex F.

Osborn the checklist for new ideas consists of a series or questions used to

stimulate new ways of thinking about a process, plan, or device. It consist

Adapt, Modify, Changes, Magnify, Split-up, Substitute, Reverse, and

Combine. The analytical techniques for enhancing creativity and

innovations include Attribute Listing, Morphological Analysis, Random

stimulation and Brainstorming. Two factors are necessary for exercises of

all types listed above to be effective: preparation and repetition. We must

provide our engineering students with opportunities to exercise and augment

Solar Energy and Smart Grid dated on 08/10/2016. The

talk comprised of the informative session on solar system

and smart grid to advanced mechanism of conversion of

abundant energy into electrical energy. As we know that the

Sun is at an average distance of about 93,000,000

miles (150 million km) away from Earth. Light from the

Sun, traveling at a speed of 186,000 miles (300,000 km) per

second, takes about 8 minutes to reach us. Major Uses of

Solar Energy are Day lighting, Water Heating, Space

Heating, Drying Agricultural Products, Generating

Electrical Power, Concentrating Solar Power, Remote Photo

voltaics Power and Rooftop Plant. Solar energy is Free,

Clean, Sustainable and Provide electricity to remote places.

A smart grid is not a single concept but rather a

combination of technologies and methods intended to

modernize the existing grid in order to improve flexibility,

availability, energy efficiency, and costs. The smart grid is

Intelligent, Efficient, Accommodating, Motivating,

Opportunistic, Quality-focused, Resilient and Green. Smart

grids promise cost-effective technology that overcomes

these limitations, allowing consumers to respond to power

system conditions and hence actively participate in system

operations.

FACULTY ARENA (UPDATES IN SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY)

A NEW PROGRAMMING

LANGUAGE “MILK”

In today's computer chips, memory management is based on

what computer scientists call the principle of locality: If a

program needs a chunk of data stored at some memory

location, it probably needs the neighboring chunks as well.

But that assumption breaks down in the age of big data, now

that computer programs more frequently act on just a few

data items scattered arbitrarily across huge data sets. Since

fetching data from their main memory banks is the major

performance bottleneck in today's chips, having to fetch it

more frequently can dramatically slow program execution.

In the International Conference on Parallel Architectures and

Compilation Techniques, researchers from MIT's Computer

Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL) are

presenting a new programming language, called Milk, that

lets application developers manage memory more efficiently

in programs that deal with scattered data points in large data

sets.

In tests on several common algorithms, programs written in

the new language were four times as fast as those written in

existing languages. Milk simply adds a few commands to

Open MP, an extension of languages such as C and

FORTRAN that makes it easier to write code for multicore

processors. With Milk, a programmer inserts a couple

additional lines of code around any instruction that iterates

through a large data collection looking for a comparatively

small number of items. Milk's compiler -- the program that

converts high-level code into low-level instructions -- then

figures out how to manage memory accordingly

.NEW ARTIFICIAL SYNAPSES

PAVE WAY FOR BRAIN LIKE

COMPUTER

A brain-inspired computing component provides the most

faithful emulation yet of connections among neurons in the

human brain, researchers say.

The so-called memristor, an electrical component whose

resistance relies on how much charge has passed through it

in the past, mimics the way calcium ions behave at the

junction between two neurons in the human brain, the study

said. That junction is known as a synapse. The researchers

said the new device could lead to significant advances in

brain-inspired — or neuromorphic — computers, which

could be much better at perceptual and learning tasks than

traditional computers, as well as far more energy efficient.

"In the past, people have used devices like transistors and

capacitors to simulate synaptic dynamics, which can work,

but those devices have very little resemblance to real

biological systems. So it's not efficient to do it that way,

and it results in a larger device area, larger energy

consumption and less fidelity," said study leader Joshua

Yang, a professor of electrical and computer engineering at

the University of Massachusetts Amherst

Page 9: Newsletter of October 2016 Final

Campus Anveshan | 9

Previous research has suggested that the human brain has

about 100 billion neurons and approximately 1 quadrillion

(1 million billion) synapses.

"With the synaptic dynamics provided by our device, we can

emulate the synapse in a more natural way, more direct way

and with more fidelity," he told Live Science.

GROUNDING & NEED TO GROUND

THE SYSTEM AND EQUIPMENT

The grounding is used in the electrical industry to mean both

“equipment grounding” and “system grounding”. Equipment

grounding means the connection of earth ground to non-

current carrying conductive materials such as conduit, cable

trays, junction boxes, enclosures, and motor frames whereas

System grounding means the connection of earth ground to

the neutral points of current carrying conductors such as the

neutral point of a circuit, a transformer, rotating machinery,

or a system, either solidly or with a current-limiting device.

Thus we can say that a grounded system is a system in

which at least one conductor or point (usually the middle

wire or neutral point of transformer or generator windings)

is intentionally grounded, either solidly or through

impedance. System grounding, or the intentional connection

of a phase or neutral conductor to earth, is for the purpose of

controlling the voltage to earth, or ground, within

predictable limits. It also provides for a flow of current that

will allow detection of an unwanted connection between

system conductors and ground.

WHAT A GROUND FAULT

CIRCUIT INTERRUPTER (GFIC)

DOES?

A ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) monitors the

current balance between the ungrounded “hot” conductor

and the grounded conductor. As soon as the current flowing

through the “hot” conductor is in the range of 4 to 6 mill

amperes more than the current flowing in the “return”

grounded conductor, the GFCI senses this unbalance and

trips (opens) the circuit off, if the “other” path is through a

human body. When no current is induced in the coil, the

ground fault circuit interrupter does not trip the circuit off.

When a small amount of current is induced in the coil, this

current difference is amplified sufficiently by the ground

fault interrupter to cause it to trip the circuit off before the

person touching the faulty appliance is injured or killed.

ADVANTAGE OF CO-EDUCATION

Having classes together is successful in most school today.

Boys become aware of girls abilities and vice versa. A spirit of

co-operation & competition in the co-educational system.

Growing up together & sharing activities such as dramatics ,

art and other things widens the student talent. The spirit of co-

education makes society and gain more confidence with

opposite genders.

Gone are the days when girls are not allowed to go to schools.

Today you cannot imagine a workplace without women.

Times have changed. Girls today are keeping pace with men in

every field. So is there any point in segregating the girls and the

boys and sending them to different schools?

Certainly not. Hence, I consider co-education the best system

for schools today.

less, Duncan Haldane and Michael Kosterlitz for

“Theoretical discoveries of topological phase transitions

and topological phases of matter”

What is topology?

Member of the Nobel committee for physics explains

topology using a cinnamon bun, a bagel and a pretzel at the

press conference.

Topology is a branch of mathematics that describes

properties that only change step-wise. like the number of

holes in the above objects. Topology describes the

properties that remain intact when an object is stretched,

twisted or deformed, but not if it is torn apart.

Topologically, a sphere and a bowl belong to the same

category, because a spherical lump of clay can be

transformed into a bowl. However, a bagel with a hole in

the middle and a coffee cup with a hole in the handle

belong to another category; they can also be remodeled to

form each other’s shapes. Topological objects can thus

contain one hole, or two, or three, or four… but this

number has to be an integer. This turned out to be useful in

describing the electrical conductance found in the quantum

Hall effect, which only changes in steps that are exact

multiples of an integer.

Topology was the key to the 2016 Nobel Laureates’

discoveries, and it explains why electrical conductivity

inside thin layers changes in integer steps. Using topology

as a tool, they were able to astound the experts.

MISCELLANY

Never liked.....................................Because

I never liked History because I failed to make friends with

Gandhiji and Akbar.

I never liked GEOGRAPHY because I had to go deep down in

the sand dunes and come out through erupting volcanoes.

I never liked CIVICS because I could never meet the President

or the Prime Minister.

I never liked CHEMISTRY because it was made up of too

many atoms and molecules.

I never liked BIOLOGY because it gave a terible name for a

simple thing.

I ever liked PHYSICS because the work done was more than

the force applied by me.

I never liked HINDI because I had a battle with Rahim and

Tulsidas.

I never liked MATHS because there was a battle between the

formula and the sum.

I never liked ENGLISH because I was never present in the

class.

DON’T QUIT

When Things go wrong as they sometimes will,

When the road your trudging seems all uphill,

When the funds are low and the debts are high,

and you want to smile but you have to sigh,

When care is pressing you down a bit,

REST if you must BUT DON’T YOU QUIT.

Life is queer with its twists and turns,

as everyone of us sometimes learns, and may a

failure turns about, when he might of won had

he stuck it out, DON’T GIVE UP when the pace

seems slow , you may succeed with another blow.

Often the goal is nearer than it seems , to a faint

and faltering man , often the struggler has given

up when he might of captured the victors cup,

and he learned too late as the night slipped

down , how close he was to the golden crown.

Success is failure turned inside out , the silver

tint of the clouds of doubt , and you never can

tell how close you are , it may be near when it

seems so far , So stick to the fight when your

hardest hit , its when things seem worst that you

MUST NOT QUIT.
