A one-day workshop on "Virtual Reality Integrated Building Design" was successfully conducted by the Civil Engineering Department for 6th and 8th semester students on 10-03-2025 at Swami Bodhananda hall. The workshop aimed to introduce students to the growing importance and application of virtual reality (VR) in the field of civil engineering, particularly in building design and planning. The workshop commenced at 10 am with a welcome address by Ms. Sweja P. V., a 6th-semester student, who set the stage for the day's proceedings. Following this, Dr. Susan Abraham, Dean, addressed the gathering, highlighting the significance of such workshops in bridging the gap between academic learning and industry demands. Ms. B. Mary Sonia George, Head of the Civil Engineering Department, further emphasized the relevance of incorporating cutting-edge technologies like VR into the curriculum to enhance students' practical skills. The core session was led by Ms. Ashwini Sreekumar, a Project Manager from Techmaghi, a training company specializing in technology-driven education. She provided a comprehensive overview of the diverse software tools utilized by civil engineers in the industry. Ms. Sreekumar emphasized the necessity of students acquiring proficiency in these tools to remain competitive in the job market. A significant portion of the session was dedicated to the application of virtual reality in building planning and interior design. Ms. Ashwini Sreekumar demonstrated how VR technology can be leveraged to create immersive and interactive visualizations of building designs, enabling stakeholders to experience and evaluate spaces before physical construction. This included discussing how VR allows for better spatial understanding, improved client communication, and reduced design errors. The session was highly interactive, with students actively participating in discussions and asking insightful questions. The workshop proved to be an enriching experience for the students, providing them with valuable insights into the practical applications of VR in civil engineering. The interactive nature of the session facilitated a deeper understanding of the subject matter. The workshop concluded with a vote of thanks delivered by Ms. Nandhana V. V., a 6th-semester student, expressing gratitude to the resource person, faculty members, and organizers for their contributions. The workshop successfully achieved its objective of introducing students to the emerging trends in building design and the role of VR in shaping the future of civil engineering.
The students of Electrical and Electronics Engineering from Sree Narayana Guru College Engineering and Technology visited the UKTL 400 KV substation at Karintalam on January 6th. This is a gas insulated substation boasts unique features that set it apart from conventional substations. Notably, the substation occupies only one-tenth of the area required for a traditional substation, making it an exemplary model of efficient design. The 400 kV substation at Karindalam in Kasaragod district is a significant infrastructure project aimed at enhancing the reliability and stability of power supply in northern Kerala. Developed by Udupi Kasargode Transmission Limited (UKTL), a subsidiary of Sterlite Power, this substation is part of a broader initiative to improve the transmission network between Karnataka and Kerala. The project includes a 115 km long 400 kV (quad) double circuit transmission line connecting Mangalore (Udupi Power Corporation Ltd) to Kasargode. This line is designed to alleviate congestion between the S1 (Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, Karnataka) and S2 (Tamil Nadu, Kerala) corridors, thereby ensuring a more stable power supply to the region. In addition to the transmission line, the project involves the establishment of a 2×500 MVA, 400/220 kV Gas Insulated Substation (GIS) at Kasargode. This substation will play a crucial role in stepping down the voltage from 400 kV to 220 kV, making it suitable for distribution to end-users. The Kerala State Electricity Board Limited (KSEBL) has also initiated downstream works to integrate this substation into the state's power grid. As part of the TransGrid 2.0 project, administrative sanction has been accorded for 220 kV downstream works of the 400 kV Substation at Karindalam. The visit provided the students with invaluable hands-on experience and insight into the workings of a cutting-edge substation. The exposure to innovative technologies and infrastructure will undoubtedly enhance their understanding of electrical engineering principles and practices.
