Design of real time intelligent buses notification system for passengers

Waiting passengers at bus stops for their desired buses seems a commonly observed phenomenon. The obvious reason behind is increased personal vehicle, causing traffic jams. The requirement of a reliable public transport monitoring system is actually the outcome from this unnecessary congestion of traffic observed. Since most of the modern technologies for the Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) have developed since more than 15 years. The need of a Global Positioning/ inertial (GPS/INS) augmentation with a reliable communication system stems from the shortcomings of each individual technology. Besides further advancement, the researchers are now developing implementable technologies for the ease of mankind so that problems related to daily life could be solved. In this dissertation, a new real time intelligent public transport movement monitoring system and station reporting based on GPS and succession of RF Radio Chips is presented. From the societal perspective, the major apprehension of this research, under the framework of a public transit network with bus service providers and users, presents detailed technical solutions for different buses' routes with poles apart IDs using multi technologies applied. GPS is selected to achieve the position data. In order to build the most convenient and reliable system, map matching for location data comparison using optimization technique, Design of Experiment (DOE) is applied. Using the techniques, one single route’s coordinates are optimized to single equation, whose output is the bus stop number in accordance to the bus stop coordinates received. The equation is obtained after a number of run through simulation and then successfully trained to the MCU. Road networks are one of the important surveillance tools in the proposed transport navigation system. In the proposed system, a careful and implementable deployment (hundreds of meters apart) of the ranging sensors is suggested for the cost-effective multi ID buses information at their particular bus stops. These are made configured to create a dedicated network for individual bus ID. Thereby, the extraordinary quality can be shown which is realized by the described algorithms. The experimental results show the promising outcomes. The statistical analysis of equation provides up to 98% efficiency while the designed prototype showed a remarkable agreement between the simulated and actual results. The proposed system surely have the ability to improve the comfortable visibility of moving vehicle at another node as well its smooth and linear transmission to the bus stations by sophisticated transceiver modules, which led people to take a decision either to wait for bus or not. This system can also be supportive to change the trend of people from using their own vehicles to public transport, which lead to solve major problem related to energy consumption, environment and traffic congestio

OPENING NEW FRONTIERS IN ADAPTIVE SPORTS FOR SPECIAL PERSONS THROUGH INCLUSION

Disability has always been associated with limitations and social segregation. And when it comes to sports, circumstances for special persons are largely unfavorable. In this modern era, inclusion is somewhat replacing social segregation, but there are new frontiers waiting to be explored. The event of Paralympic is evolving along with the social norms within mainstream society. Hence, there is always a space for new ideas to emerge. For instance, several new sports can be modified and introduced to special persons. This research aimed at bridging this gap by introducing a plethora of conventional sports that can be modified to suit the needs of special persons. For example, special persons can be trained with modified versions of wrestling, karate, and power-lifting. Hence, the researcher triangulated his research by conducting semi-structured interviews aimed at special persons from all four types of disabilities to get their perspective. The researcher was well-acquainted with the relevance of different varieties within the emerging trends in sports. Therefore, his own participant observation guided the course of this study. A sample of 12 special persons with all four types of disability was interviewed. The study discovered that many special persons displayed prominent acumen and interest toward aforementioned sports

The Need and Importance of Field Work Practice in Field Settings for Social Workers

Students educate and progress when performing in social service organizations, and social works professors and field teachers must comprehend these procedures. By knowing the mechanisms by which learners grow and improve when functioning in social service organizations, instructors and field trainers can fully understand individuals' academic goals and determine the more efficient strategies to assist students during learning in practice. In that sense, the essay looks at field studying in social service training in terms of the two most common adult learning techniques, personal learning concepts and sociocultural training methods, and how they are utilized in the workplace in-field assignment contexts. Consequently, the paper highlights the diverse character of field learning while claiming that sociocultural methods vary by nation, depending on the demands and realistic goals of social work practice. In Pakistan, social work has to be recognized as a realistic strategy in private as well as public sector. Promoting a realistic study strategy for field situations has been a primary obligation of those connected with social practice. As a consequence, Pakistanis will begin to know their actual pedagogy earlier or later, which is similarly crucial for the advantage of corporate social work training. They connect with customers, colleagues, and mentors throughout their practical experiences, and these encounters help them build communication abilities.

Rock Quality Analysis using Empirical Techniques (RMR & Q-SYSTEM) along the Headrace of a Hydropower Project in Kalam, Swat, Pakistan

The principal goals of this research were to examine the rock mass classification (RMC) and characterization as well as the support assessment for the proposed headrace tunnel route of an approximately 11 km long hydropower project (HPP) in Kalam valley, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP), Pakistan. It was important to look at the key discontinuity factors for the classification of rock masses. To accomplish the aim, field discontinuity surveys were carried out to obtain rock mass parameters, and collected samples along the proposed tunnel route. Furthermore, characterization and classification of rock mass have been done using empirical techniques (ET) such as Beiniawski's Rock Mass Rating (RMR) and Barton's Tunnelling Quality Index (Q). The rock types were identified as Kalam Quartz Diorite, Gabbro and Granodiorite from literature. The prominent discontinuity sets were evaluated by exporting discontinuity data to DIPS. Quality Index was determined by calculating, its parameters, Quality Index values range between 3.74-17.00, 3.74 (poor at DS-04), 7.08-7.33 (fair at DS-01, DS-11 and DS-18) and 10.07-17.00 (good at DS-02, DS-09, DS-13, DS-14, DS-17 and DS-19), whereas, rock mass classification values ranges from 47-60 (fair at DS-01, DS-02, DS-04, DS-09, DS-11, DS-13, DS-14, DS-18, DS-19) to 64 (good at DS-17). The rock support according to the RMR scheme suggests fully grouted systematic bolting 3 to 4 m in length and 1.5 to 2.5 m spaced and 50-100 mm shotcrete in the crown and 50 mm in sides, while Q-system suggests spot bolting to Systematic bolting with 40-100 mm unreinforced shotcrete
