Abstract: In today's manufacturing scenario Production Scheduling plays a vital role in planning. The scheduling deals directly with the time. The allocation of available resources over time to perform a specific task. Assigning an appropriate number of workers to the jobs during each day, determining when an activity starts and end depending upon the duration of an activity, predecceor activity, resource availability and target completion date. A scheduling problem is to find sequences of jobs on specific machines with an objective to minimize total elapsed time or makespan. Job Shop Scheduling is type where the machine order can be different for each jobs. It becomes complex and agile to evolve optimal solution. JSP is widely defined as a NP hard and combinatorial in nature. In this paper the characteristics of JSP is analyzed and proposed Genetic Algorithm as one of the efficient optimization tool to solve problem like JSP. This research work aim to analyze the JSP at Job shop Process Industry considering static scheduling and also considered due dates as dynamic scheduling. Coding is done in MATLAB Version 7.10 through GUI. Compared the results with and without using GA parameters.

Abstract: The increasing industrialization and motorization of the world has led to a steep rise for the demand of petroleum products. Petroleum based fuels are obtained from limited reserves also use of conventional diesel fuel causes serious problem of air pollution and effects on the environment. Hence, it is necessary to look for alternative fuels, which can be produced from renewable sources. In this work, reports about biodiesel engine performances and emissions published by highly rated journals in scientific indexes, from these reports, the effect of biodiesel on engine power, economy, and emissions of a four strokes compression ignition engine are surveyed and analyzed in detail. Also describes many researches worked in optimization of C.I. engine performance and operating parameters for biodiesel fuel using software methods. Lastly the scope and challenges being faced in this area of research are clearly described.

Title	:	Pull-Out Capacity of Granular Anchor Piles in Expansive Soils
Country	:	India
Authors	:	Dr. P. Hari Krishna, Dr. V. Ramana Murty

Abstract: The stability of structures founded in expansive soils depends upon their pull-out capacity or resistance. The pile foundations adopted to alleviate the damages to the structures resting in these soil fail due to their inadequate pull-out capacity. In an attempt to develop a simple, easy to install and cost-effective alternative foundation system to the conventional concrete piles, the possible use of granular anchor piles below shallow footings was studied by conducting pull-out tests in the field after conducting pilot tests in the laboratory. From these studies, it is found that the pull-out resistance of granular anchor piles is more than twice the value of concrete piles in both unsaturated and saturated states. The pull-out resistance of concrete and granular anchor piles is decreased by about 32% and 25% respectively upon saturation.

Abstract: Long Span, Column free structures are the most essential in any type of industrial structures and Pre Engineered Buildings (PEB) fulfill this requirement along with reduced time and cost as compared to conventional structures. The present work involves the comparative study of static and dynamic analysis and design of Pre Engineered Buildings (PEB) and Conventional steel frames. Design of the structure is being done in Staad Pro software and the same is then compared with conventional type, in terms of weight which in turn reduces the cost. Three examples have been taken for the study. Comparison of Pre Engineered Buildings (PEB) and Conventional steel frames is done in two examples and in the third example, longer span Pre Engineered Building structure is taken for the study. In the present work, Pre Engineered Buildings (PEB) and Conventional steel frames structure is designed for dynamic forces, which includes wind forces and seismic forces. Wind analysis has been done manually as per IS 875 (Part III) – 1987 and seismic analysis has been carried out as per IS 1983 (2002).
