Short Term Rainfall forecasting by ANN-MCDM Approach

Project Idea :
Short Term Rainfall forecasting by ANN-MCDM Approach

Requirement :
Various data of climatic parameters, landuse pattern of the region,cloud type and density for 1 to 5 days before the day of forecast.

Justification of the Study :
Rainfall can impact the output of many industrial and agricultural processes.Even the energy ouput from the power sector is affected by the climatic parameter. Short term rainfall forecasting is an important concept as it can help the planners of this industry to adjust their input so that the required output will remain unaffected.

Brief Methodology :
A widescale expert and local survey followed by literature review has to be conducted to identify the parameters which mostly impact the rainfall probability.After the most important parameters are determined MCDM methods like Analytical Hierarchy Process or Fuzzy Decision Making can be applied to determine the relative weightage of importance of the selected parameters.A weight function can be then developed to estimate the probability of rainfall in the next day or day after tomorrow or within the next five days.

Five new topics for your internship

During the vacations, one can utilize their leisure time doing a research project. Incumbent can contact an expert and decide on which topic she/he can pursue the project. The end result can be manifold which includes but not limited to: a publication in a journal/conference; a patent; an innovative idea for doing business or a monograph which highlights the journey from the idea in the paper to the lab and ultimately in use for the benefit of mankind.  Following ideas are developed, keeping in mind that such leisure time is small and limited. The proposed designs can be accomplished within a short time and if one can devote around 4 to 5 hours. The reward will depend on the sincerity and seriousness of the researcher. The selected five ideas are entirely new and have never been tried before. An acknowledgement in the articles that one can publish after successful completion of the projects will be enough for the author of this blog. Title : Selection of Optimal Quality Water for S...

Impact of Climate Change on Virtual and Green Water Availability in Arid Regions

Project Idea : Impact of Climate Change on Virtual and Green Water Availability in Arid Regions Requirement : Hydro-metereological, Future Climate and Water Use Data, Knowledge about Predictive Hydrologic Models. Justification of the Study : Virtual Water is the amount of water used in industries as raw material and Green Water is the volume of water utilized in agriculture.The availability of both of them is important for socio-economic development of any region.As arid regions are characterized by water scarcity,such places will be more vulnerable to climate change impacts.As this two type of water use is important fror GDP of any region maintaining a minimum water volume for the said purposes will be important. Brief Methodology : After collecting the relevant data, a model can be prepared to predict the availability of water.Then based on the demand from the agriculture and industrial sector the availability of Virtual and Green Water under climate change can be estimated.Models l...

Micro-Submarine for Water Quality Monitoring

Idea : Sub-Water Marine System For Under Water Quality Monitoring. Sub-Water Marine System: Sub-water marine systems i.e., underwater vehicles allow the exploration of the ocean depths and vast regions of the seafloor. Water Quality Monitoring :  Water quality and wastewater monitoring are fundamental tools in the management of freshwater resources and they provide essential information characterizing the physical, chemical, and/or biological status of water resources, determining trends and changes over time, and identifying emerging water quality issues. Area of Application/Consumers : Shipping, Tourism, Hotel, Water Park Industries.  Underwater vehicle systems can be prepared and special sensors can be developed and fixed in the vehicles to monitor the underwater quality which will be beneficial for Shipping, Tourism, hotels, Water Park, etc. Industries. The vehicle should be small and remotely controlled and must have autoresponse systems to mitigate or alert about the haz...
