Written Part Result of SCRA Exam, 2011 Announced

The Union Public Service Commission (UPSC) has announced the results of the written part of the Special Class Railway Apprentices Examination, 2011 held by U.P.S.C. in July 2011 the candidates with the under mentioned Roll Numbers have qualified for Interview/Personality Test.

The candidature of these candidates is PROVISIONAL subject to their being found eligible in all respects. The candidates would be required to produce the original qualifications, community, physical disability etc. at the time of the Personality Test. They are, therefore, advised to keep the said certificates ready.

All the qualified candidates are required to fill up the Detailed Application Forms (D.A.F.), available on the Commission’s Website http://www.upsc.gov.in, and submit the same ON LINE. The DAF will be available on the website of the Commission till 30.11.2011. Important instructions regarding filling up of the DAF and submitting the same ON LINE to the Commission are also available on the website.

Interview of candidates who have qualified for the Personality Test are tentatively scheduled to be held during the last week of December, 2011. The exact date of interview will, however, be intimated to the candidates through Interview Letter. Roll Number wise Interview Schedule will also be made available on Commission’s Website http://www.upsc.gov.in in due course.

No request for change in the date and time of Personality Test intimated to the candidates will be entertained under any circumstances.

“The mark-sheets of candidates who have not qualified, will be put on the Commission’s Website within 15 days from the date of publication of the final result (after conducting Personality Test) and will remain available on the Website for a period of 60 days”.

The candidates can access the marks-sheets after keying in their Roll Numbers and date of birth. The printed/hard copies of the marks-sheet would, however, be issued by UPSC to candidates based on specific request accompanied by a self addressed stamped envelope. Candidates desirous of obtaining printed/hard copies of the marks sheets should make the request within thirty days of the display of the marks on the Commission’s Website, beyond which such requests would not be entertained.

Tiny Device to prevent Derailment invented by IIT KANPUR

Tiny device from IIT-Kanpur can
prevent derailment
After fabricating Jugnu, the country’s tiniest
satellite launched last month, Indian Institute of
Technology-Kanpur graduates have now come up
with a matchbox-sized device to monitor wear
and tear of railway tracks and prevent
derailment.
The new device is aimed at replacing a bulky,
box-like contraption that is currently used by
Indian Railways.
“Our device is a supplementary system for
monitoring track health, making it simpler to
integrate with the existing railway
infrastructure,” said Kshitij Deo, M.Tech in
mechanical engineering, who developed the
device with three others from the vibration and
dynamics lab of the IIT.
For Railways, safety is important as thousands of
trains use around 114,500 km tracks of its
network – the world’s fourth largest. With
regular use, the tracks develop cracks and
fissures, including problems linked to loose nuts
and bolts at the joints. If the tracks are less
firmly anchored on the soil, it could lead to
derailment.
All these faults can now be detected in real time
and recorded automatically to prevent
derailment thanks to the oscillation monitoring
system, a cutting-edge device weighing just 100
grams.
The device has been designed and developed by
a team of IIT-Kanpur’s mechanical engineering
graduates, under the guidance of N.S. Vyas,
professor and head, mechanical engineering, and
the Railways’ Research Design and Standards
Organisation (RDSO), Lucknow.
The device, based on micro-electro mechanical
system, can monitor track health more
comprehensively and enable efficient track
maintenance.
“The extremely handy package locates and logs
track faults accurately with the help of the GPS
(global positioning system), eliminating human
errors and making train journeys safer. It has a
battery life of 10 hours and can be recharged by
USB port on computers,” said Deo who
developed the device with three others from the
vibration and dynamics lab under Vyas.
On the other hand, the existing railway
monitoring equipment is bulky and operated
manually, with two people being required to feed
the location into the bulky device.
It is mounted on a special coach, the oscillation
monitoring unit. Since it forms part of a small
train, the exercise cannot be undertaken
frequently. Track clearances have to be sought
and the routes planned and finalised in advance,
said Deo.
“The biggest challenge lay in engineering a device
that could pinpoint faults with a high degree of
precision while simplifying use with a drastically
reduced size. We did manage to reduce the
number of buttons to one as against 50 required
on the keypad of the railway equipment,” said
Deo.
The device once placed on the floor of a running
train’s coach measures and records vibrations.
Any fault or irregularity on the tracks changes the
pattern of vibrations. The device feeds all such
data and locational faults into a fingernail-sized
data storage card with the help of a GPS receiver.
If the vibrations cross a certain threshold,
especially in case of a critical fault, the device
alerts engineers with audio-visual signals (beeps
and flashing LEDs). Post- journey, the storage
card is retrieved from the device and plugged
into the computer for reading the track’s actual
condition and analysis by the railways.
The plan is to install at least three-four such
devices on trains running on each route to
monitor each track on a regular basis.
The project grew out of a visit by the director of
the RDSO to IIT-Kanpur. “We were demonstrating
a similar vibration measurement instrument
developed by us. In subsequent meetings, the
project was finalised and we designed the device
in close coordination with RDSO officials,” said
Deo.
“The project took a year to fructify, involving
some 25 field trials on trains, including Shatabdi
and Rajdhani Expresses. The RDSO has been
optimistic about the project. Many times we
actually walked on the track to verify faults as
predicted by the device,” recalled Deo.
After the successful completion of the first phase,
the RDSO is keen on going ahead with the second
phase and testing the device on trains in all the
railway zones. If its performance is found
satisfactory, it would be approved by the
Railways.
