Project Title Project Type Year Of Sanction Outcome/Output Duration
Identification and mentoring of potentially gifted children in India in Science and Mathematics funded by DST Major 2014 The concept of Gifted Education has now been integrated in NEP 2020 18-06-2014 To 22-02-2021 (6 years, 8 months, 4 days)
Creating a manuscript related to mathematics for liberal arts students Minor 2011 The book titled "A Bridge to Mathematics" was published 15-04-2011 To 31-05-2015 (4 years, 1 months, 16 days)
24 x 7 water supply in villages and small towns of India Minor 2012 1. Preliminary GIS based water distribution network based upon automated terrain extraction algorithm using Shuttle Radar Topographic Mission data of Malkapur. 2. The study of tariff slab of Malkapur 24X7 water supply system resulted in conclusion that cross subsidy could be one mechanism to have optimal tariff slab structure. 3. Major considerations of civil engineering infrastructure were studied and used to construct the database for supplementing the project report software framework. 16-07-2012 To 15-07-2013 (11 months, 29 days)
Solutions for road management from modeling and simulation of traffic flow on selected road of Delhi Minor 2012 1. Synchronous recording of vehicular traffic on selected roads: Recording of traffic on a road segment near University of Delhi provides distribution of vehicles, density, types. 2. Model parameter estimation and simulation: Flux of each type of incoming and outgoing vehicles on the frame, speed and overtaking pattern. 3. Fitting of data with recordings: Preliminary simulation to match the recording with model. Simulations using MATLAB and Java 4. Statistical analysis: Statistical analysis of recorded data, matching with longer model simulation. 16-07-2012 To 15-07-2013 (11 months, 29 days)
IT model for parking space management: optimal and efficient parking – retrieval of vehicles Minor 2012 1. The team visited a few residential colonies only to conclude that number of vehicles in these localities is not in proportion to the available space (the parking space available is way too little!). It is, therefore, not possible to solve such problems by just optimizing parking behaviour and monitoring the vehicles. 2. In case of University Parking, the space seems to be sufficient for the average number of users so far; users still tend to face certain problems. Parking the cars randomly causes problem for retrieval of the cars. Unorganized parking can be easily worked upon and an android application related to the same is in its last stage of completion. 16-07-2012 To 15-07-2013 (11 months, 29 days)
