wherein she hugged every individual with impartial, soothing and unconditional love.

Seva activities undertaken by students and faculty of the school, in collaboration with the residents of the Ashram

included serving of food, cleansing of utensils, and managing the throng of devotees. The selfless service of volunteers

from Amrita Vidyalayam and Amrita Vishwa Vidyapeetham was lauded by Amma and all the attendees.

soulful renderings of bhajans, which was later followed by euphonious melodies praising Lord Shiva from Raaga, the

music club. A mime emphasising the essence of empathy in life and a skit highlighting how ignorance is the word when

another is in trouble, were presented by Abhinaya, the drama club. Narthana, the dance club, depicted the fiercely

protective nature and wrath of Lord Shiva through Rudra Tandava. A graceful classical dance by the girls was an

Maker’s Community Session

The introductory session of the Maker’s Community

was organized by ECIF on 15th March 2017 to an

audience of about 55 aspiring makers from different

branches of engineering. The session started with a

talk on purpose, ideals and future of the community

by Mr. Manoj A. (S4, ECE) and Mr. Aryan Oberoi

(S4, ECE). The principle behind DIY (Do It Yourself)

was also discussed. The introductory session also dealt

with a project based on persistence of vision. The

audience was briefed on the concepts and working of

videos and displays. The session was interactive with

witty quips and humour. Mr. Rohit C.H (S2, EEE)

shed some light on the intricacies and challenges

involved in making a PoV globe based on his

experience. A challenge question was then posed to

the audience where they attempted to recreate a

smiley using persistence of vision.

The session ended amidst cheers for the success of

the first ever DIY community meet up in Amrita

School of Engineering, Bengaluru.

He has been invited as a speaker by the University of Porto for lecture series on 'Future

Transportation Solutions (Two Parts)' which will be held on 21st April 2017 and 25th May 2017.

Faculty Achievements/Participation/Recognition

Mr. Nandawadekar Ajit Dattu (S4, M.Tech. in Power

Electronics) has received “Young Researcher Award”

and won 1st prize worth Rs. 60000/- for his work

“Multifunctional Induction Machine” in IET

Karmveer Expo-2017, held at Nashik, Maharashtra

during 21st – 22

nd March, 2017.

The main contribution was to configure an induction

motor to operate using single phase as well as three

phase AC supply. This is achieved by modelling the

induction motor as a welding transformer through

some modification in the stator winding. Welding

transformer requires low voltage and high current for

joining of two metal parts by electrical arc welding.

The running and starting winding of the single phase

operation are placed in the same slots that are used

for the three phase operation. So at a time anyone of

them can be used to supply or produce excitation in

order to employ rotation of rotor.

Talk on “Renewable Energy Technologies in Power

Generation”

On 1st March, 2017 as a celebration of Eco Week, a

Generation was held by Prakriti, in collaboration with

IEEE PELS Student Branch chapter. The talk was

hosted by Mr. B. Satya Sripada (S6, EEE), Vice

Chair, IEEE PELS and Mr. Thirumal Reddy (S4,

ECE), Executive Member, Prakriti. Mr. Sripada

spoke about the limited life of non-renewable

resources and the urgency of transitioning to

renewable resources for power generation. He spoke

in detail of different sources of renewable energy such

as Solar Energy, Wind Energy, Hydro Energy and

Bio Energy. Mr. Reddy spoke on the consequences to

humanity and the planet if renewable energy sources

are not integrated to international power production.

VYOM - The Astrophysics club has procured a celestial telescope "Celestron 130 EQ" partially funded by the

School Management.

The club aims at the display of the night sky including moon and its surface features, Jupiter and its satellites

etc., celestial objects to the students and faculty of our college. Further the telescope will be developed with a

motor as a project from the members of the VYOM in the coming years which can help one to track various

celestial events with ease.

Regular night sky shows will be a part of the VYOM activities from now on, due to the existence of the

telescope. The scope is further planned to be upgraded for spectroscopy studies of celestial objects which can

also be a amateur research work for the beginners. The work on spectroscopy studies will be planned in the

coming years.
