Mir and Marini back in the saddle for Le Mans

 Mir and Marini back

France,8th May 2024: With the season now in full flow, the Repsol Honda Team is back on track for the French GP after an important weekend last time out in Spain.

Made world famous by two and four-wheeled endurance races, the Le Mans Bugatti Grand Prix circuit sits just outside the town of Le Mans and has featured full-time on the World Championship calendar since 2000. With several slow corners and tight chicanes, late braking and hard acceleration are the order of the day at the French GP.
Joan Mir did well in front of his home fans to recover to two-point scoring results in the Sprint and the Spanish Grand Prix. Recreating that form and improving throughout the French GP weekend will be the objective again. The last race showed what Mir and his team can do throughout the weekend, building each session to maximize the potential of their package.

On the other side of the Repsol Honda Team garage, Luca Marini continues to work on improving his feeling with the Honda RC213V. Experimenting with setup options during the post-race test should give the Italian more tools when he arrives in France for Friday practice.

“Finally when we look at what happened in Jerez we have to be content, we achieved the maximum that we could. Doing the same again this weekend is the goal. Le Mans is a different kind of track with lots of slow speed corners, so we need to work to setup for that as much as possible. It’s true it has been a bit of a tricky track for me in the past but we approach with our goals and our plan this weekend.”

“Another opportunity for us to make improvements. Myself and my team are giving our maximum to make progress and we enter the French GP weekend with the same intensity. It’s important to stay focused and make the most of every opportunity we are presented. The weather in Le Mans can be quite wet and cold, so let’s see what we can achieve.”

The Role of Technology in Advancing Green Construction for a Sustainable Future

Technology plays a critical role in advancing green construction towards a sustainable future. Innovations such as Building Information Modeling (BIM) optimize design efficiency, reducing material waste. Smart sensors and IoT enable real-time monitoring of energy usage, enhancing building performance. Renewable energy technologies like solar panels and geothermal systems decrease reliance on fossil fuels. Advanced insulation materials and green roofs improve energy efficiency and mitigate urban heat island effects. 3D printing facilitates eco-friendly construction using recycled materials. Overall, integrating technology promotes resource efficiency, reduces environmental impact, and fosters the evolution towards greener, more sustainable construction practices.

Lalit Kumar Aggarwal, Co-founder & Vice-Chairman, of Signature Global (India) Limited said, “The adoption of construction management software is experiencing significant growth due to its numerous benefits. This sophisticated software empowers contractors to meticulously plan and monitor all aspects of a building project, ensuring smooth and efficient progress. By utilizing these tools, project managers can closely oversee project development, exercise precise cost control, and minimize waste, resulting in significant time and resource savings.”

Lalit Aggarwal added, “Modular construction is gaining popularity in green construction, involving the fabrication of building components or entire sections in a factory before on-site assembly. This method minimizes waste by precisely cutting and producing only necessary materials, significantly reducing errors. Additionally, modular construction is quicker and safer, requiring fewer on-site workers and reducing overall construction time.”

Ankit Kansal, Managing Director of 360 Realtors said, “Indian real estate’s role in promoting long-term sustainability is unquestionable. The sector contributes 35% of greenhouse emissions besides contributing to 33% and 25% consumption of electricity and water resources respectively. It is pertinent for the sector to step up and play a larger role. Although India has 3rd largest volume of green-certified buildings after USA and China, there is a pressing need to be more proactive in terms of neutralizing environmental menaces. This is all the more important in the face of an unprecedented rise in urbanization and spurred population growth. One of the prudent approaches will be to integrate green technologies and smarter practices throughout the real estate lifecycle from land acquisition to leveling to construction to deconstruction. This will help in optimizing resource consumption besides lowering greenhouse emission.”

Kushagr Ansal, Director of Ansal Housing said, “3D printing is a transformative technology revolutionizing the construction industry. It enables the creation of 3D models using various materials like concrete and plastic. By leveraging 3D printing, construction firms can decrease waste, streamline production time, and lower expenses. Moreover, architects can develop intricate designs previously unachievable with traditional construction methods.”

In recent years, heightened global attention to sustainability and environmental awareness has spurred a notable rise in the demand for eco-friendly building materials. This trend is especially pronounced in green construction projects, where the emphasis on sustainable materials exceeds that of conventional construction methods.

To address this demand, developers are creating and incorporating innovative, eco-conscious materials. These materials encompass not only recycled steel and reclaimed wood but also a diverse array of other sustainable options. For example, bamboo is increasingly favored for its fast growth and renewable qualities, while bio-based plastics provide a viable alternative to traditional petroleum-derived plastics.

Embracing the use of sustainable materials is not just a trend; it is a crucial step towards a more sustainable future. By adopting these practices, we are actively contributing to the preservation of our planet and creating a cleaner and greener world for generations to come.

Sanjay Sharma, Director of SKA Group said, “New construction methods increasingly incorporate smart home technology to optimize energy consumption and decrease carbon footprints. Smart systems can regulate temperature, lighting, and other energy-consuming functions to efficiently manage and reduce energy usage. These advancements enhance comfort, safety, and overall energy efficiency in homes and buildings.

Solar energy stands out as one of the most popular green technologies in construction. Solar panels or photovoltaic (PV) systems are installed on building rooftops to harness electricity from sunlight. This renewable energy source can power homes and buildings while contributing to reduced carbon emissions. Solar energy adoption is especially common in residential construction, often with solar panels integrated onto rooftops.

The incorporation of green building technologies in construction can profoundly benefit the environment. For instance, innovative technologies like green roofs and vertical gardens can markedly diminish a building’s carbon footprint. These features can absorb rainfall, thereby minimizing runoff and mitigating waterway pollution. Additionally, they enhance a building’s insulation, reducing energy consumption in both winter and summer seasons. The widespread adoption of such technologies not only decreases our carbon footprint but also conserves vital natural resources, making a broader positive impact on humanity.

In summary, the integration of green technologies in construction is revolutionizing the industry and paving a promising path towards sustainability. While initial costs may be higher, the long-term financial savings, increased property value, healthier living environments, and societal benefits make green construction an attractive and responsible choice.

Established in 1973, IADVL stands as a bastion of expertise and trust in Indian dermatology care. Boasting over 17,410 qualified members including dermatologists, venereologists, and leprologists who are board- certified, IADVL is instrumental in setting standards, disseminating knowledge, and advocating for top-tier dermatological care. Today, IADVL remains resolute in upholding professional standards, ensuring patients receive evidence-based care. Through diverse initiatives such as public awareness campaigns and educational programs, IADVL empowers members and the public alike with dependable dermatological knowledge.

As advocates for patient safety and quality healthcare standards, IADVL calls for increased regulatory measures and enforcement to curb the proliferation of unlicensed medical practices.

Dr. Sumit Gupta, Vice President of IADVL Delhi, emphasized, “As we embarked on this remarkable journey, IADVL reiterated its dedication to advancing dermatology care, fostering public awareness, and effecting positive change in the lives of those afflicted by dermatological diseases.”

The pledge that the members of IADVL took for the GWR Official Attempt stated, ‘As a proud member of IADVL, I solemnly pledge to preserve the highest standards of professionalism and ethics in my role as a Dermatologist, Venereologist, and Leprologists.

A Complete Guide to Choosing the Right TV Size for Your Home

Televisions have evolved beyond mere entertainment and are now essential in our daily lives. While features like Dolby Vision & Dolby Atmos speakers and sleek bezel-less designs are appealing, choosing the right TV size is crucial for an immersive viewing experience. Brands like Haier offer a range of screen sizes, empowering consumers to find the perfect fit for their home space. Here’s a comprehensive guide to selecting the ideal TV size for your home, ensuring you find the perfect TV sweet spot for your living room.

Room Size: The size of the room where the TV will be placed is crucial. Larger rooms benefit from bigger screen sizes, ideally 55 inches or above, for a comfortable viewing distance and a cinematic experience. In smaller rooms, opt for a 32 to 43-inch TV, especially if sitting closer. However, to fully appreciate a larger screen, a higher resolution like 4K is recommended. Additionally, content consumption habits play a role; consumers who enjoy sports or fast-paced games may prefer a larger screen for better visibility, even in smaller rooms.

· Small Rooms (Up to 8 Feet Viewing Distance): Ideal for cozy bedrooms or dens, TVs between 32 and 43 inches offer excellent picture quality without overwhelming the space. Haier India provides multiple TV options in this size range, featuring immersive audio, Google TV support, and AI smart voice by Google Assistant.

· Medium Rooms (8 to 12 Feet Viewing Distance): Living rooms, dining rooms, or family entertainment areas typically fit TVs ranging from 43 to 55 inches. Haier offers various models in this segment, running on the Google TV platform with Dolby Vision and Atmos support.

· Large Rooms (12 Feet and Beyond Viewing Distance): Spacious living areas or home theatres are perfect for TVs exceeding 55 inches. Haier India’s S800QT QLED TV series, available in sizes from 43-inch to 75-inch, offers features like 4K QLED panels, Dolby Vision and Atmos, 60Hz variable refresh rate, and DLG120Hz technology.

Viewing Distance: The distance between the TV and the seating area is crucial for comfortable viewing. As a rule, the ideal viewing distance is 1.5 to 2.5 times the diagonal size of the TV screen. For example, if you have a 50-inch TV, the viewing distance should be between 6.5 to 10.5 feet. Therefore, it’s important to consider this factor when choosing the right TV for your home space.

Resolution: Resolution is another crucial factor to consider when choosing a TV. In the Indian market, various resolutions are available, including HD Ready, Full HD and 4K Ultra HD. Higher resolutions offer sharper images and more detail, enhancing the viewing experience. Opting for a higher resolution is ideal for larger screen sizes, ensuring optimal clarity. These options are available across various screen dimensions in premium TVs. Haier India provides HD, FHD & 4K UHD resolutions, catering to diverse viewing preferences and budgets.

Room Aesthetics: The size of the TV screen significantly impacts a room’s appearance and style. A small TV can look out of place in a large room, while an oversized one can overpower the space. Therefore, it’s vital to balance the screen size with the room’s dimensions, furniture, and decor. A well-proportioned TV enhances the room’s overall balance and harmony. A larger screen can serve as a focal point, but it must complement the room’s design for a cohesive look and feel.

Choosing the right screen size for your TV is crucial for an immersive viewing experience. Considering these factors should simplify the decision-making process and enable you to make an informed choice. Haier India offers a diverse range of televisions, spanning from 32 to 75 inches, to meet the varied needs of Indian consumers.
