at low wind speeds. The self-created code based on BEM theory serves to
generate an optimum blade profile by making use of multiple airfoils. This
helps to reduce the design time and hence the manpower cost. The code
offers the possibility for a common man to set up a small-scale wind
turbine by using 3D printing.

Vehicles have become a great part of our lives. However, with the increase
of the number of automobiles, a parking deficiency problem is arising. To
overcome this rising issue, this project consists of designing an automated
parking system.
