About AXIS
As the wheel of technology rotates, AXIS aims to act as a medium for those who wish to pioneer a
revolution. AXIS aims to serve as a platform for those who wish to bring about a change, to help
students contribute to this technical advancement. VNIT, one of the premier institutes for
engineering in India, undoubtedly bags the cream of intellectual talent. In 2001, with a common
motivation to showcase technical alacrity and the dire need for new ideas, AXIS, the technical
festival of VNIT, was born. Originally christened Odyssey, the technical festival was soon renamed
AXIS, to represent a much more active crusade against the lack of novelty and original thought
applied to established technological norms, which threatens to impede any future human
advancement. In the past sixteen years, AXIS has brought about a complete transformation in the
technological dynamics of Central India, and that’s not to mention the strong competition it now
gives to the technical festivals of other such institutes of high calibre, thus living up to its motto
‘Revolution starts on an AXIS.’ Over the time, it has grown in leaps-and-bounds. From a small
intercollege exposition to a national level festival, in over the span of 19 years, AXIS has strived to
provide the basis for the kindling and the nourishing of ideas. More than 30 events ranging from
Automation and Robotics, Software and Electronics, Construction Design and Safety, School Events
to Management and various other domains are organized under AXIS along with workshops,
exhibitions ,pro-shows, social initiatives and a lot more educational and social activities

needs and requirements of water crop planning based on water availability, optimizing Irrigation
equitable sharing water, and considered decisions on ground water withdrawals You can select any
particular village down and do your research on that village/town and give a detail study of
sustainable measures which can be employed efficient water budgeting there.
OR
Around 75% of the Water fed into a RO filter, is wasted. Only 25% gets extracted as drinking Water.
This causes a tremendous Overhead on the Water Supply as well as Sewage Treatment system of
Apartment Complexes.
Design a sustainable RO purification method which wastes less water, which can help in cost cutting
