Message from The Editorial Board

Every day is a new beginning. Treat it that way.
Stay away from what might have been, and look at
what can be.
After the thirst-quenching end-semester break, the veteran Malaviyans returned to their beloved Halls of Ivy
with the dawn of a new academic year. The University
gratifies the newly admitted students of the Freshman
Year.
Amidst the feelings of glee and allegiance, this month is
all set to commemorate the re-birth of our country.
The rains are here, the freshness is all in the air. A lifetime of showers moistens the soul, welcoming the winsome monsoons. The Editorial Board issues this edition of
Tiresia as an escapade of true and genuine thoughts and
outsets the commencement of academic events with the
MALAVIYAN ACE and wishes everyone a best of luck on
all their endeavors.

FROM VICE CHANCELLORS DESK

I am pleased to note that the Literary Sub Council of Student Activities of the University is bringing the first issue
of Universitys monthly newsletter titled Tiresia for the
academic session 2015-16 in August 2015.
It is heartening to realize that by now the University has
completed more than 19 months of its successful existence
and admitted the second batch in its different programmes in 2015-16. In view of the aspirations and need
of the society, the University enhanced its intake in
B.Tech. programme from 330 to 600 from the current session. This increase in admission strength is causing some
teething troubles which are likely to be resolved in due
course of time when the upcoming infrastructure is available for use.

The activities undertaken by the University exhibit its commitment for imparting
quality technical education by strengthening it holistically through its teaching
staff, non-teaching staff and students. The enforcement of the first part of the University management system for student registration and student attendance record, display and its monitoring through the website will bring positive changes in
the teaching-learning atmosphere of the University.
I wish to take this opportunity to call upon the student community and other
stakeholders to actively contribute in strengthening the existing processes and further enrichment of all the curricular and extracurricular activities for enhancing
the professional competence of students in the University.
I extend my best wishes to all the members of The Editorial Board and believe that
this newsletter shall act as a potential communication link amongst all stakeholders inside and outside the University for dissemination of information about
good practices and seeking feedback for improving the academic environment of
the University for achieving the excellence in technical education.

Prof. Onkar Singh

FROM CHIEF EDITORS PEN
I feel extremely delighted to share with the readers, the release of the first issue of
the monthly newsletter, Tiresia, in August 2015, at our university portal in the
shade of a young, experienced, dynamic, visionary and scholarly vice-chancellor
Prof. Onkar Singh. Tiresia, the newsletter of the University, unlike playing the
role of a sheer spectator and reporter, speaks the language of the University, connecting the stake holders, communicating with them and inviting them to be an
inseparable part of the University. It tries to establish a close bond between the old
scholars and the new learners by offering them to share their experiences, provide
their invaluable suggestions and extend their support in making and escalating
the University to an echelon where from, perforce, each and every one reflects and
gravitates the world to its reputation.

With

Mr. Rajat Kumar Singh

Mr. Rajat Kumar Singh, student of Electrical Engineering, born and

brought up in Gorakhpur has achieved great heights in his career. He secured AIR-3 in Indian Engineering Services Examination, 2011. The first
two rank holders were from the IITs, he being the third made our institution proud. After passing out from the erstwhile MMMEC in 2009, he
joined PGCIL (Power Grid Corporation of India Ltd) in the same year. He
worked in the PGCIL as the Executive Trainee in the Commercial Department. At the time of the final posting interview, he opted for field work.
Finally, he was posted at 400/220 kV sub-station Bahadurgarh, Haryana
and worked there for two and a half years. Currently, he is the Assistant
Divisional Electrical Engineer, Rolling Stock Operation in Allahabad in
IRSEE (Indian Railways Services for Electrical Engineers). The Editorial Board
got a chance to interview him. Here are some excerpts:
Q1. How would you describe your life post Malaviya?
Life post Malaviya continued to be the same for the next six months that is, full of
fun. I was in NPTI, Faridabad for the class room training of PGCIL ET-XIV Batch,
and as usual I kept on sleeping in most of the lectures. Then after, it was the On
Job Training period in Gurgaon for the next eight months after which I reached
Bahadurgarh. Life there was different. There I tried to learn some technical aspects of operation and maintenance and also tried to continue my studies. On December 10, 2012, I reached IRIEEN, Nasik (Indian Railways Institute of Electrical
Engineers). This phase of life was quite exciting. In the whole training period of
one and a half year, I covered some parts of India (North-East and J&K).
Q2. How was your college life?
College life was easy and fun. I had a lot of friends and was a favourite among my
seniors. My favourite teacher and motivator was V. K. Giri Sir. I was never very
serious about the class lectures as I used to doze off generally. Then came the volcanic time (started from the later half of the fifth semester). It was a period of being booked for Disciplinary committee again and again. To my relief, in the sixth
semester I got selected for TCS.

After that, I decided to go for public-sector examinations. Final semester was a

quite hectic one as I had to commute to Gurgaon for my interviews twice between
my semester exams. The College days were the best days so far in my life and I
will always cherish them.
Q3. Is there any memorable incident from your Malaviyan times that you
would like to share?
It was my farewell, organized in the Multi-Purpose Hall. I arrived there about an
hour late but to my surprise some of my juniors were still standing at the entrance
looking for me. Besides this, I also remember the days when I used to hang out
with my seniors during summer vacations and festivals at various places.
Q4. What is your success secret?
For whatever I am and whatever I will be, I owe a lot to my parents, elder brother,
teachers and all those who tried to motivate me. I just concentrated on my academics in college which paid later on. I was very sincere towards my studies. I had a
keen interest in my subject.
Q5. What message would you like to convey to the budding engineers of
the Malaviya?
Malaviya is a brand. To keep up the reputation of this brand, it is necessary to
work hard, be it any walk of life. So, I would like to tell all the young minds to stay
focused on their objectives and goals. Remember one thing friends, never run away
from the challenges put in front of you. Do not limit yourselves to bookish knowledge. Also, try to involve yourselves in extra curricular activities as much as possible. In the present era, it is necessary to have a good personality plus the professional skills to embark the journey globally. At last, best wishes to all my dear
Malaviyans.

Worlds First 3-D Printed Car

Henry Fords assembly line famously transformed the automobile industry in the 20th century and a new company is
hoping to bring about a similar revolution in the 21st, with
its recently unveiled 3-D printed vehicle.
The company is Local Motors, designers of the Strati. The car
was printed in about 44 hours on spot at the International
Manufacturing Technology Show in Chicago. In contrast to
the thousands of components in a traditional vehicle, the
Strati consists of a fewer than 50 parts. Most of its body is
built from extruded plastic of the kind that Lego bricks are
made up of which makes it both drastically simpler and potentially cheaper in the future than conventional cars. According to Local Motors CEO Jay Rogers, If this works, even
a little, it will reform all of the industry.

A Simpler Streamlined Build

The Strati is a sleek two-seated, roofless electric vehicle that
weighs about 2,200 pounds with all its non-printed parts attached. Most of the car was constructed in a shipping container-sized 3-D printer which used nozzles to squirt layer
after layer of a carbon-reinforced thermoplastic to construct
the chassis from the ground up. The end product looks a lot
like a topographic map of an Italian roadster.
The primary advantage of 3-D printing the Strati is that
most of the chassis components are already complete after it
comes off the printer. Once the steering wheel, shocks, tyres
and electric motor are quickly installed, it can be driven off
the lot.
The Strati can reach speeds of about 40 miles per hour and

Its not that

technology,

technology.

can travel 120 miles on a charge but a gas engine could also
be fitted. Local Motors expects the Strati to retail for about
$18,000.

The Future of Car Market

Reducing the number of parts required to build a vehicle
would lower the costs and streamline production. Further,
vehicle designs could be rapidly altered without waiting for a
supply of new parts to be machined.
More alluring is the very realistic notion that you could pick
all the specifications you need in a new vehicle, press print
and drive it home the same day. One could even print a car
from home since the Strati design is publicly available.
When asked what would happen in a crash, Mr. Earle said,
it would be like a rock slamming against a brick wall.
However, Local Motors hopes to continue improving its thermoplastic recipe to improve strength and safety.

69th Independence Day

Since our first Prime Minister, Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru
unfurled the National flag at the Red Fort for the first time
sixty eight years ago, India has commemorated 15 th August as
the birth of a free and democratic nation. The Independence
Day celebrations transcend caste and religion as citizens unite
and sing hymns and songs in harmony and remember our
freedom fighters. On this day, we take a pledge to defend our
hard-earned freedom with all our might. Indeed, 15th August
is a red-letter day for the entire nation and is observed with
great solidarity.
On August 14, 1947, Pandit Nehru delivered, Long years ago
we made a tryst with destiny and now the time comes when
we shall redeem our pledge, not wholly or in full measure but
very substantially. At the stroke of the midnight hour, when
the world sleeps, India will awake to life and freedom. A moment comes, which comes but rarely in history, when we step
out from the old to the new, when an age ends and when the
soul of a nation, long suppressed, finds utterance. It is fitting
that at this solemn moment, we take the pledge of dedication
to the service of India and her people and to the still larger
cause of humanity. Whenever we hear these words, our souls
reverberate with burgeoning enthusiasm and our hearts overflow with patriotism.
As we step in the new era, we have proved the world that India has come a long way from being called the land of snake
charmers to one of the most acknowledged country in the
world. With our humongous initiatives like the Mars Orbiter
Mission, we have provided an ocean of knowledge and opened
new paths not only for our country but for the entire mankind.
Our benign Prime Ministers Make In India initiative has
hydraulically lifted Indias economic stature.

Today, India can proudly boast about all her achievements

and developments in the fields of technology, education, economics, defence, civil and innumerable others.
We have won the battle of independence but even after sixty
nine years, we are still at war. A war against poverty, terrorism, corruption and discrimination. Only when we eradicate
all these negativities, we can call ourselves an independent
nation in true sense. So let us pledge today to act now and be
the change we wish to see.
Jai Hind!!
