"Visualizing The Future- HARVESTING ENERGY FROM TIDES"

My Theory on Structural Design and Mathematical Modelling of a Revolutionary  Uni-Directional Tidal Flap Turbine with Advanced Sea Bed Installation Methodology. The oceans have long been recognized as a potential source of energy. The ocean's motion carries energy in the form of tides, currents, and waves. The interest in tidal power is constantly increasing thanks to its high predictability, the huge potential of tides and the actual need for renewable energy. It explains the emergence of many tidal turbine designs, especially in Coastal Countries like India, often inspired from wind turbines. All of them are at a more or less early stage of development. But because of the high density of water, environmental drag forces are very large compared with wind  turbines of the same capacity. Therefore the knowledge acquired by the wind industry is certainly qualitatively useful, but it has to be reconsidered to be applicable to tidal turbines. ...

The 90years old Mystery of Ramanujan's last work - Unlocked

The Discovery of Mathematical Beauty " Mock Theta Function" on the Death bed. On 22nd December, the world celebrated the 125th birth anniversary of Srinivasa Ramanujan the man known for natural genius how hailed as an all-time great mathematician, like Euler, Gauss or Jacobi. In his honour, the Indian government declared 2012 as the Year of Mathematics. I pay my tribute to the great mathematical genius who unraveled the many dimensions of Mathematics by leaving behind 4000 original theorems, despite his lack of formal education and a short life-span.– truth, beauty, elegance, abstractness, certainty, fun. While on his death bed, the brilliant Indian mathematician SrinivasaRamanujan cryptically wrote down functions he said came to him in dreams, with a hunch about how they behaved. Now 100 years later, researchers say they've proved he was right. "We've solved the problems from his last mysterious letters. For people who work in this area of math,...
