M.Tech in Hydro-Informatics Engineering

Hydroinformatics?



National Institute of Technology Agartala(Tripura) is offering 2 years course on M.Tech in Hydro-Informatics Engineering. Graduates from Electrical, Mechanical, Civil and MSc students of Environment Engineering, GIS are eligible to apply.

If you have a valid GATE score, you can enrol through the Spot Round counselling which will be held online by the CCMT.

The course is nine years old and the passed out students are either doing PhD in a reputed institute like IIT Roorkee, IIT Delhi, IIT Kharagpur, IIT Ropar etc.or have been appointed as Assistant Professor in different colleges like University of Engineering and Management(Kol), Meghnad Saha Institute of Technology(Kol) etc. Few students have also cracked the campus interview to join in L&T, Infosys etc.

But according to the course coordinator, the School of Hydro-Informatics Engg., which is conducting the course, wants a student who is interested in doing research in interdisciplinary topics. As for example, climate change, natural resource management, fluvial hydraulics, water and energy efficiency, hydropower development,water-energy nexus, data science and AI&ML in water resources management etc.

There is ample scope of novel research where multi-disciplinary people can work under the same roof to carry out problem-solving exercises in mitigating various hazards and avoiding disasters due to the climatic impacts on the water resources. Studies for providing optimal solutions to present uncertainty in the energy sector along with numerous multi-criteria decision-making studies are also conducted.

In the syllabus new subjects like Hydro-Informatics Engg, Natural Resources Management and old topics like Geophysical Fluid Dynamics, Principle of Water Resources etc. are included.

Tools like GIS, WaterCAD, GMDH etc. and new age data science techniques like nature-based algorithms like Ant colony, Bat, Swarm etc., Multi-Criteria Decision Making are also taught during the course.

The lab page can be found at Research Gate.

Students who want to pursue their career in research are welcome to apply for this course.

How to apply Cat Swarm Optimization Techniques in real life optimization problems ?

Techniques known as "Cat Swarm Optimisation" (CSO) are based on an optimization algorithm inspired by nature and the collective behavior of cats. CSO mimics the cooperation and communication among a group of cats to tackle complex optimization issues. It is inspired by the hunting behavior and social interactions of cats. These methods' capacity to efficiently explore broad search spaces and identify ideal answers has drawn a lot of attention in recent years.  The capacity of CSO approaches to managing high-dimensional and non-linear optimization issues is one of its main benefits. Because of this, they can be used in a variety of industries and domains, including data mining, engineering, and finance. Furthermore, CSO algorithms are renowned for their resilience and capacity to function in unpredictable and noisy conditions.  You may also like : HydroGeek: The newsletter for researchers of water resources https://hydrogeek.substack.com/ Baipatra VSC: Enroll for online c...

Five most innovative and sustainable water bottles

Cover Feature: Five most innovative water bottles selected by ODM V2 Five most innovative water bottles Water bottles are now becoming smart. Recently launched water bottles have the capability to track your hydration level and can remind you to drink water when the hydration level is below a predefined level. Some water bottles can either increase or decrease the temperature of the water in the container. Some alternatives come with blue tooth speaker/stirrer/fuser/wifi etc electronic devices. Some variation of smart water bottles has the ability to self-purify when needed. Here in this feature, we try to find the most innovative smart water bottles that are available on the eCommerce sites with the help of ODM.

Eight most common impurities observed in water supplied to domestic households

The water supplied to domestic households has many types of contaminants which have the potential to create health irregularities in the consumer family. Among these contaminants, eight most common impurities were identified, and the type of filter which can remove or reduce them was delineated in the figure. Before procuring a water filter remember to see this chart. It will help to understand the impurities that the selected water filter can remove. Any water filters available in the market are generally made of one or more of these filters. To decide wisely use the concepts of MCDM to select your filters. Compare the filters available in the market with respect to Cost, Contaminant Removal Efficiency, Maintenance requirement, and type of filters used and rate each filter based on these factors with the help of AHP or ANP techniques. The result will be the filter that will be most efficient for your use. You can also use the ODM tool to come to a decision regarding the procurement o...
