Ideathon: Sustainable development goals

What is about?

Its discussing and coming with ideas and concepts that will promote and achieve the sustainable development goals (SDGs) form United Nations.

Students will be working in team of maximum 4 to come up with ideas in line to any of the Sustainable Development Goal put up by United Nations

The team must define a problem encompassing any one or more of the following goals put forth by the United Nations. An idea must be proposed on how the problem will be mitigated.

The students can access these goals and targets at https://sdgs.un.org/

The team will be valuated by a panel of eminent professors

The contest requires only the concept in a presentation. Models are not necessary

Contest will be open for any Under Graduate or Post Graduate student

4D PRINTING

4d printing is a new technology which is in its developing stage where scientists are trying to get a self assembled product in real time. 4d printing is combination of 3d printing and a feature that a material can assemble into a desired shape on its own with some stimulus, stimulus being a vibration, temperature changes in the environment etc. This is a very interesting way of creating things. It can also be custom made like toys for children which is fun to do like creating a spider man toy in green and superman toy in black and white and a batman toy in red and blue. Imagine a toy moving without any motors or battery, how cool would that be!. This is useful in manufacturing processes where assembling a complex part may be tedious, time consuming, and labour intensive process. This eliminates this limitations as it does this by folding, bending etc. as it is programmed to do so. Now you might think how is this possible?. Thi...

The Principia

This 335 years old masterpiece, by the influential scientist of all time, has contributed most consequently in the history of science. This book is often commonly known as “Principia”. We can possibly infer and reach out a place that assures: “no other scientific work has drawn more importance and attention than Newton’s work did” ; in this far pragmatic globe. The theories proposed are widely ranging in many fields including Newton being mathematician, physicist, astronomer, theologian and author or say “natural philosopher” and not just being giver of the three laws of motion. These works have often been used to derive other works such as Kepler's law of planetary motion, the trajectories of comets, etc. The universal law of gravitation is another platinum used primarily even today. It was even justified that the motion of objects in Earth and celestial bodies can also be accounted for, by the same principals. Further, ...

FOLDSCOPES : A FOLDABLE MICROSCOPE

A Foldscope is an optical microscope that can be assembled from simple components, including a sheet of paper and a lens ,punched sheet of cardstock, a spherical glass lens, a light emitting diode and a diffuser panel, along with a watch battery that powers the LED . It is part of "frugal science" movement which aims to make cheap and easy tools available for scientific use in the developing world. Once assembled, the Foldscope is about the size of a bookmark. Now, even children will be able to observe microscopic world around them and not only in classroom but also at home. The Foldscope with multiple lenses that provide magnification from 140X to 2,000X. This is a very innovative invention which is very cool and futursitic because now Sherlock Holmes will not only see the blood stain in the crime scene but also the DNA of the convict, which sounds very hysterical because Sherlock Holmes wil...
