Weiser Pustak Bot 

Weiser Pustak Bot is an AI-powered, LLM-based reading companion that enhances your book experience by offering summaries, clarifications, and discussions. It provides real-time responses to explain complex concepts, suggest further reading, or recap key points. Designed to make reading more interactive and enriching, this bot is the result of hard work by Sugin Elankavi Rajendran, M Abish, Balaji K, Suruthi S, and Harishma P.

Cilampi 2.0 : Out-Pipe Inspection Robot

The Out-Pipe Inspection Robots (OPIRs), namely Cilampi I and Cilampi II, are designed for climbing vertical ferromagnetic pipes. Cilampi I can carry a payload of 1.45 kg, while Cilampi II can carry a payload of up to 7.6 kg, including its weight. The adhesion force of a single magnetic wheel is 4.34 kg, and for two wheels, it is 8.33 kg.

Kuzhali 2.0 : In-Pipe Inspection Robot

The developed In-Pipe Inspection Robot (IPIR) can move through pipelines with varying diameters. It can even navigate through pipeline junctions such as L-Branch, T-Branch and curved pipes without issues. It can also avoid motion singularity in curved pipes and maintains an even distribution of forces acting on its wheels due to its unique wheel arrangement.

In this Research, Magnesium Metal Matrix Composite was fabricated and machined to find the influence of cutting speed and feed rate on various machining aspects like cutting forces, chip morphology, surface roughness, cutting temperature and tool wear. It was observed from the results that cutting force, surface roughness and tool wear are greatly affected by varying the input parameters. 

The objective of the project is to design a shell and tube heat exchanger with single-segmented baffles and Analyze the flow and temperature field inside the shell using Autodesk Simulation CFD 2015. In this work, we achieved a high heat transfer rate and reduced fouling.
