WAVE ENERGY... not a new idea, but seldom practiced globally !!

World has already seen, that there is a wide variety of wave energy conversion devices which can be used to harness the energy captured by a wave power generating system. Some of the existing wave energy devices are built on the shoreline, making the engineering and construction of such schemes much easier, eliminating the need for long underwater cables runs. However, the power density of waves is much less than is available some distance offshore. However, this can be partly compensated for by the concentration of the wave energy.
Offshore devices are situated in much deeper water, with typical depths of more than 30 meters. The wave power available at these deep ocean sites is about three to eight times the wave power available at shoreline sites with a range of completely submerged wave energy conversion devices available for offshore use. The type of wave energy conversion device used in a particular location, depends on the type of device and its distance from the shoreline.
Experiments have shown, that slowly but definitely, varying power generation from ocean waves is possible.
A method of evaluating renewable energy technologies in terms of economy and engineering solutions should be further explored, researched and investigated. The match between the technologies and the fundamental physics of renewable energy sources, can be given in terms of technology's utilization.

Instantiating DAY and NIGHT with Boolean and Fuzzy logic - An idea for a probable school project ?

Fuzzy logic is a form of many-valued logic in which the truth values of variables may be any real number between 0 and 1, considered to be “fuzzy.”  By contrast, in Boolean logic, the truth values of variables may only be the “crisp” values 0 or 1. Generally speaking, in regions across our planet, which comprises of natural human habitat, we do see a certain time of the 24 hours of a day is dark, while the rest of the time it is naturally bright. By stating naturally bright, I am implying to the influence and effect of sun on that concerned geographical area. However there are regions on earth which has more than 24 hours of sunlight at a single stretch/span of time. It has been observed, that human population in such regions are comparatively much lesser. Here I am trying to project a state of complete/maximum darkness as "0" ( Boolean Zero ), and a state of complete/maximum brightness as "1" ( Boolean One ). The remaining states in between complete da...

A Feasible Idea-Proposal for an Algorithmic Trading App supplemented with Deep Learning features.

Algorithmic Trading is a method of executing orders using automated pre-programmed trading instructions accounting for variables such as time, price, and volume to send small slices of the order (child orders) out to the market over time. This concept and practice of Algorithmic Trading has been evolving over the past few years, and is now a continuous evolution on its own. By now, there are a host of Algorithmic Trading Tools & Software in the global market. Even Algorithmic Trading Apps have started evolving, as expected. Few useful links are provided below. 9 great tools for Algorithmic Trading An Algorithmic Trading App from Trade Smart STREAK - An Algorithmic Trading App from Apple After navigating through the above links, one might still wonder on how many of these tools, software, and apps are actually equipped with Deep Learning features.  It is very much possible and obviously true that continuous research and development is in progress, in order to achi...

FLOOD PREVENTION - Automatic Emergency Water Gates Along The Riversides - A probable option ??

Flood due to raging rivers from excessive rainfall is a very common scenario across the globe, because engineering and technology is yet to invent anything till date, to control the weather's wrath. If we can construct huge underground car parking areas, then humans can also construct underground concrete water reservoirs, because that day is not far off, when humans has to accept and realize that preservation of rain-water and river-water, will be much more important than owning fleets of expensive cars. Whenever there is an excessive rainfall in any geographical region with rivers and its tributaries, the river gradually starts flowing above the threshold/danger mark.  I hereby propose to construct automatic emergency water gates along the riversides, at a little lower level as per the danger mark scale. And these automated gates will lead the excess river-water, to the underground concrete water reservoirs (proposed above) through an underground piping system (slanted in a...
