Study on the Rocking Phenomenon of Parachute Rope
Abstract: With the constant development of computer technology and the development of numerical simulation techniques, the simulation of the dynamics of the parachute is becoming increasingly accurate. To eliminate the effects of large deformation of the grid in the conventional parachute simulation, we chose the parachute model using the smooth particle hydrodynamics method and performed a steady-state fluid-solid coupling numerical simulation, which is in good agreement with the calculated gas power …

Reimagining Solid Waste Management in India: A case of Circular approach in C&D Waste Management
Abstract: Construction and demolition (C&D) waste, which accounts for an estimated 150–500 MT yearly and about 10–20% of the nation's total municipal solid waste (MSW) generation, is a significant management challenge for India. Accelerated urbanization, population increase, infrastructural expansion, and urban redevelopment initiatives are the main causes of this quickly expanding waste stream. Much of this waste is disposed of through uncontrolled dumping, encroachment on low-lying areas, and overcrowded landfills in …

SoloRider: An Autonomous Self-Balancing Electric Bike for Sustainable Urban Mobility
Abstract: Rapid urbanization has intensified challenges such as traffic congestion, parking inefficiency, and environmental degradation. While autonomous vehicle research predominantly focuses on four-wheel platforms, lightweight two-wheelers remain comparatively underexplored. Two-wheelers are a great option for sustainable urban transportation because of their many benefits, including their small size, lower energy consumption, better manoeuvrability, and lesser infrastructure requirements. This paper presents SoloRider, a conceptual autonomous self- balancing electric two-wheeler de- signed for sustainable …
