[ad_1] Sri Lanka Crisis Latest News: Reeling under the worst economic turmoil since its Independence in 1948, the island nation of Sri Lanka witnessed some major political developments that may pave for resolution amid intense public outrage. From long lines outside petrol pumps to power cuts to sky-rocketing rates of common food items, people of Sri Lanka are hard-hit by the crisis. While many have blamed the loan taken from China as the major reason, others have blamed the poor decisions taken by the Lankan government that has dented the economic growth of the island nation. Here are the top updates from Sri Lanka that you should know: 1: Sri Lankan President Gotabaya Rajapaksa on Monday invited the members of the Opposition to take the portfolios in the government and find a solution for the economic crisis. The decision came after all 26 ministers submitted their resignations on Sunday evening. No reason has been issued regarding the mass resignation by the Lankan Cabinet. 2: In another development, the Sri Lankan President sacked the nation’s Finance Minister, who is also his brother. Basil Rajapaksa’s removal as the Lankan Finance Minister is seen as an attempt by the President to silence the criticism. Basil Rajapaksa was scheduled to visit the US for the meeting with the International Monetary Fund officials for a possible bailout. 3: Now, Sri Lanka has got a new Finance Minister. Ali Sabry, who was the Justice Minister till Sunday, has been appointed as the new finance minister. 4: The trend of top officials resigning is not ending in Sri Lanka. After the Cabinet Ministers, now Sri Lanka’s Central Bank Governor has also resigned from his post. Ajith Nivard Cabraal took to Twitter to make the official announcement. The 67-year-old has been known as someone who has staunchly opposed the IMF help. 5: With scarcity of the foreign exchange, Sri Lanka is deep in debt and is unable to pay for fuel imports among other things. The nationwide protests continued on Monday as well. In Tangalle, protesters broke police barricading amid anti-Gotabaya Rajapaksa chants. Colombo Stock Exchange’s All Share Index remained in deep red after brief green spike. [ad_2] Source link

[ad_1] Indian Institute of Technology Guwahati has developed a technology that rates the motors and batteries of electric vehicles and suggests to Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEM) the best drivetrain components for the Indian scenario.   This is a unique method of its kind which standardises the electronic vehicles based on Indian drive-cycles. So far researchers have not been considering Indian drive-cycles.   The drive cycles developed are not focused on rural and urban drive-cycles. The Electric Vehicles currently available in the market also do not take into account the different climatic conditions in India.  Currently, no OEM uses this technology and they have been requesting the drive-cycle data of Indian vehicles. This research hopes to create better and more efficient drivetrains based on different regions. This is also beneficial for start-ups. This research aims to reduce emissions and reduce fuel consumption.  The researchers of the Electric Mobility Laboratory of IIT Guwahati led by Prof. Praveen Kumar, Professor, Department of Electronics and Electrical Engineering, IIT Guwahati, focused on Indian climatic conditions for both rural and urban areas.   They developed the method to suggest the best drivetrain to manufacture. Drive-cycles developed by the IIT Guwahati team, are unique and not available anywhere else.  An electronic drivetrain (group of components that deliver power to the drive wheels) developed in a humid region does not work the same in a dry NS colder environment.   Therefore, the OEMs right now are considering creating standard drive-cycles for Indian conditions.  Commending the researchers for their work, Prof. T. G. Sitharam, Director, IIT Guwahati, said, “The development in the field of next-generation energy-efficient EV technology is one of the most important breakthroughs required for the sustainable development of the country and to reduce carbon footprint. IIT Guwahati is earnestly working in this direction. This development will augment this process and maximize the outcomes.”  Explaining the long-term positive impact of this development, Prof. Praveen Kumar says, “Our goal is to prepare a document that can enable the new entrants into the EV market and help in levelling the playing field. The other primary benefit of this entire exercise is to prepare the next generation of technocrats that are ready for an excellent career in EV technology anywhere in the world. ”  This research has been published and it has an ISBN 978-93-5578-973-0. The institute intends to extend the research to commercial vehicles working with OEMs so that they can manufacture more efficient drive trains that suit the different climates of India better.   The researchers are also working to develop this technology for four-wheelers also as the current project focuses exclusively on two-wheelers.
