Motto and Core Vision of the

Sahyadri Conclave

The inception of Sahyadri Science Conclave was done to

nurture a vision that will foster new ideas, inspire

scientific inquiry, enable the critical examination of

scientific question and activities from a new point of

view and directions for a better tomorrow. In addition

to establishing and encouraging personal contacts.

The “Sahyadri Science Conclave” is an initiative to

popularize Science & Technology amongst the masses

and create an awareness regarding its impact on Socio-

economic levels for a sustainable development of the

nation. It will be providing a platform for budding young

scientists and managers to deliberate on a panel

discussion on varied topics of Science, Technology and

Management, Lectures presented by the Nobel

Laureates, Scientists, and Interactive sessions relating

to various application oriented themes and issues will

be discussed.

The word "science" probably brings to mind many

different pictures: a fat textbook, white lab coats,

microscopes, an astronomer peering through a

telescope, a naturalist in the rainforest, Einstein's

equations scribbled on a chalkboard, the launch of the

space shuttle, bubbling beakers in the chemistry Lab

etc. All of those images reflect some aspect of science,

but, none of them provide a essence of it as a big

picture because science has so many facets. Science is a

way of discovering what's in the universe and how they

worked in the past, how things work today and how

things will work for the next generations.

In school, science may sometimes seem like a collection

of isolated and static facts listed in a textbook, which is

often boring and students tend to lose interest in this

wonderful subject. This conclave is our effort to help

the young minds to understand that Science is exciting,

useful, ongoing and is important to human endeavor,

this conclave will serve as an opportunity for the

students to explore the wonders of science.

Taking a step ahead, Sahyadri Science Conclave is aimed

to provide opportunity for about 800 students from

different institutions and schools, research scholars

and teachers from different disciplines of Science,

Technology and Management to come together and

interact with Nobel Laureates, Scientists and

Management experts to foster lateral thinking. This

intellectual gathering of scientists and students from

across the country provides a rare platform for

interaction and expose the students to the excitement

of scientific research /investigation and motivate them

to take up study of science, technology and

management and take teaching/research as their

career options.

The conclave will throw light upon 4 core issues related

to Water, Health, Environment and Energy. This event

will address constructive and progressive approaches

to ensure conservation and sustainability on the above

mentioned themes. A major motivation for the

conclave is to learn from past failure, to avoid repeating

similar mistakes while attempting to prevent emerging

threats to environmental and ecological systems.

The deliberations, technical sessions will also be

augmented with series of exhibitions to have a practical

feel to enthuse and arouse interest through:

• Planetarium from DST, Karnataka

• “BrahMos” Exhibition from DRDO

• Indian heritage

• “KRADLE”, renewable Energy Exhibitions

• Butterfly Exhibitions

The 'People's President' Dr. A. P. J. Abdul Kalam might

not be with us anymore, but he will always be alive in

the ambitious plans he made for our country. India

Vision 2020, prepared under the chairmanship of our

'Missile Man', was aimed at transforming India into a

developed country focusing on core areas for social,

scientific and economic development through an

innovation-driven culture. Sahyadri Science Conclave is

an humble effort to realize his vision.

Expected Outcome and Journey ahead

• To bring together Nobel Laureates, Scientists,

Management Experts and students under one

conducive platform to encourage meaningful

dialogue amongst themselves.

• To promote the importance of values in science

education so that the learners will be future-ready

for the exciting world which they will live and work in

• Motivating students to take up Science as a career

and make them understand the role of Research in

nation building.

• To create, ideate, innovate your own project,

relentlessly work and proactively deliver.

• Bridging the gap between prototypes to world class

product.

There are no Dreams

too large, No innovations

unimaginable & No frontiers

beyond our Reach…

Planet has nurtured millions of life forms of sheer variety of birds, plants, insects and worms through a mind

boggling millions of years of evolution. In our quest for growth and better quality of life we have exploited Earth.

Our idea of life and growth has lead to severe uncontrolled exploitation of natural ecosystem. From an atom to

anything we have exploited everything. We have killed creature to make our life easier . This is not just our home

alone, in fact , we share this home with every living creature and it is time we do our part to protect it . We have

failed to find a better way vehicle through which we can expand our human eco-system without destroying

other animal and plant life.

We are in a false notion that exploiting physical resource is the only way to expand. Our economies are built like

this with an idea that having means buying more and using more. But from where does this more come from?

We are on an exploitative mode, not by choice but by compulsiveness. We will do just what is needed; nothing

more, nothing less. If we are given any number of planets to live on, we will destroy all of them within few

centuries. In the process of human progress we have disturbed the total ecological balance of the earth, where

in human beings are moving towards water wars and the likes. We have a misconception that nothing in the

world is connected, but infact it is the other way round.

The only way to bring awareness in enthusiastic young minds and sensitize them about this grave issue is to

make them aware that environment is our life. It is because of this planet Earth that we are all here and not vice

versa.

We will be able to live well if the water is clean, the air is clean, the environment is clean and if our health is good.

Consciously, we should understand that quality of life is decided by nature around us. So the theme of conclave

focuses on way of life to water, energy, environment and health. Interaction and deliberations should facilitate in

basic reformations in society to bring back the ecological balance by transforming society. We need to

harmonize peace with the environment else we will all be in pieces.

Sahyadri Conclave - Themes

Growing water demand due to population growth explosion and depletion of water resources are posing

enormous challenges to sustain the growing economy of India. Addressing water scarcity, enhancing water

efficiency and increasing water productivity have become the call of the day. Hence one of the themes for this

Science conclave is identifying issues and sharing the best practices in water use efficiency. Polluting water may

be the biggest single misuse of water; to the extent that a pollutant limits other uses of the water, it becomes a

waste of the resource, regardless of benefits to the polluter. Industry majors recognize water scarcity as one of

the most daunting challenges for the future and the biggest risk to productivity. Best practices in water use

efficiency- recycle and reuse of wastewater, Zero Liquid Discharge, industry technological innovations, online

monitoring etc. are part of the ongoing discussion in industry towards water conservation.

Points to Ponder

• Developments that could help in the

quest for clean water

• Rain water harvesting and other approaches

WATER

• What is Desalination? How to make ocean

water drinkable?

• Saving water - Simple strategies for homes

ENERGY

Society relies on 3Es (Energy, Economy, and Environment). They influence the economic, political, regulatory,

and social factors of the country. Energy is the most important of all resources, while sustainability concept

focuses on the long term survival of communities. The energy and sustainability has to be balanced. Ecological

studies include the result of resource consumption and the technology systems have to move toward

sustainability. Most important question is how technology can contribute to generating the solutions for

achieving sustainability.

Points to Ponder

• Alternate sources of Energy

• Clean Energy

• Advantages and disadvantages of alternate energy.

• Energy conservation buildings

• Energy efficient products

There is no doubt for the fact that man is an intelligent animal. Man is able to influence environment with his

activities. The effects of man's activities on environment have been both positive and negative. On one hand,

the scientific inventions of man have made human life comfortable. On the other hand, these inventions have

caused danger for the sustainability of our environment. All the things in the environment interrelate with each

other to give man what he needs for survival. The environment is important and we should all aim to protect it by

avoiding bad practices such as pollution, cutting down of trees and any other human activities that could lead to

the degradation of the environment.

Points to Ponder:

• Connect with nature

• Using technology to conserve the environment

• Reduce, Reuse and Recycle

ENVIRONMENT

• Tackling Deforestation

• Grow your own food

HEALTH

Good Health is the greatest blessing of life. It is increasingly recognized that health is maintained and improved

not only through the advancement and application of health science, but also through the efforts and intelligent

lifestyle choices of the individual and society. According to the World Health Organization, the main

determinants of health include the social and economic environment, the physical environment, and the

person's individual characteristics and behaviours.We are seeking optimal adaptation to disability or disease as

well as freedom from preventable disease or illness, freedom from disabling ways of thinking or behaving as well

as freedom from poor posture or inadequate nutrition.

Points to Ponder:

• Artificial intelligence in Health care approches

• Prediction of Diagnosis and Life Expectancy

• Treatment Options for Various Ailments and Diseases

• Revolutionizing drug development,

• 3D printing organs

Internet of Things (IoT)

Artificial Intelligence (AI) & Machine Learning

Data Analytics

Block Chain

Internet of Things (IoT) is an ecosystem of connected physical objects that are accessible through the internet.

IoT is a new wave of connectivity is going beyond laptops and smart phones, it's also going towards connected

cars, smart homes, connected wearables, smart cities and connected healthcare systems, which results in a fully

connected life. According to Gartner report, by 2020 connected devices across all technologies will reach to 20.6

billion.

AI - The capability of a machine to imitate intelligent human behavior. It focuses on making already “intelligent”

systems capable of simulating human-like decision-making and execution, enabling those systems to perform

functions traditionally executed by skilled human professionals. AI develops more holistic platforms and

solutions that better automate business intelligence and analytics processes. Entire Business Intelligence apps

are built on Machine Learning.

Data analytics refers to qualitative and quantitative techniques and processes used to enhance productivity and

business gain. Organizations across many industries are creating and applying innovative data-analytics driven

applications for everything from improving internal, operational processes and to providing exceptional

customer experiences. The analytics process, including the deployment and use of big data analytics tools, can

help companies improve operational efficiency, drive new revenue and gain competitive advantages over

business rivals. The applications span every walk of life and industry now spanning security, transportation,

fraud and risk detection. Time to revisit Data Analytics applications.

Block Chain - A digital ledger in which transactions made in bitcoin or another cryptocurrency are recorded

chronologically and publicly. Modern internet deals with assets, your most valuable immediate items that you

can touch and want to protect. These assets are stored in encoded form on a network-to-network chain called

the block chain or ledger, where each participant sees who you do business with. This not only protects your

business dealings, prevents theft and also simplifies your affairs. Also it supports in making the process faster

with minimum errors, and saves you from hiring a third party. Block chain technology is a revolution in systems of

record. Bitcoin is history's first permanent, decentralized, global, trustless ledger of records. Since its invention,

entrepreneurs in industries around the world have come to understand the implications of this development.

The nature of block chain technology has got imaginations running wild, because the idea can now be applied to

any need for a trustworthy record.

Renewable Energy Sources

Alternate Energy and Opportunities for Future

Welding Automation

Smart Cities

The development of renewable energy system limits the disadvantages of currently employed conventional

energy source. Doubling the renewable energy sources would generate 900000 jobs in the energy sector by

2030. Development of renewable energy would bring major reforms in various sectors like, electricity

production, heating and cooling systems, transportation etc. Awareness of renewable energy is of paramount

importance as it would minimize the depletion of natural resources, thus providing energy security for future

generations.

The exhaustion of world non-renewable resources makes alternate energy an inevitable avenue for discussion.

Today with the increase in consumption rate there is a greater need for industrialization, which requires

enormous amount of energy. The overdependence on coal, nuclear, and other resources has put enormous

stress on already diminishing natural resources. Hence, development of alternate energy has gained significant

interest. The advancement of alternate energy would also increase the employment opportunities which are an

important aspect for a developing country like India, which has got 50% of population with an average age less

than 25. Further, academic institutions could play a vital role in the growth of alternate energy by organizing

workshops, and conclaves that would promote cutting edge research.

The currently employed conventional welding practices results in reduced productivity and weld quality as this

depends on the operator skills. Further, conventional welding leads to increased scrap and rework. To address

this limitation, it is pertinent to bring automation in welding. Today's curriculum emphasizes largely on

conventional welding hence there is a greater need to bring awareness among the students community. This

could be brought by organizing workshops, seminars conclaves and by incorporating concepts of welding

automation in curriculum.

In the approach of the Smart Cities Mission, the objective is to promote cities that provide core infrastructure

and give a decent quality of life to its citizens, a clean and sustainable environment and application of 'Smart'

Solutions. The focus is on sustainable and inclusive development and the idea is to look at compact areas, create

a replicable model which will act like a light house to other aspiring cities. But the biggest challenges faced for

the development of smart city is financing, city development plan, technical constraints, dealing with the

environment, governance and reliability of utility service and corruption. Based on these challenges,

Researchers need to get grips with how smart cities are affecting citizens rights, freedom of speech and

participation in democratic politics.

First of all considering the diversity, they form more than 50 % of all kinds of living beings, accounting for nearly a million different kinds. Their varied life forms, life styles, attractive colours, and an ability to impact the environment in myriad ways make them the most studied groups of organisms in the world. The exhibit is a glimpse into the world of Insects.
