MIktex download and update error

 

Default download for miktex from ctan mirror:

https://mirror.niser.ac.in/ctan/systems/win32/miktex/setup/windows-x64/basic-miktex-24.1-x64.exe

The above mirror is not working most of the time.

So changed the mirror by manually changing the ctan mirror in the url to:

https://in.mirrors.cicku.me/ctan/systems/win32/miktex/setup/windows-x64/basic-miktex-24.1-x64.exe

When updating from miktex console, Got errror that update not possible due to ctan server not replying. Error message was time out error

code="28", url="https://in.mirrors.cicku.me/ctan/systems/win32/miktex/tm/packages/miktex-zzdb3-2.9.tar.lzma"

Changed the ctan mirror miktex uses from NISER server to CICKU

Funding opportunities for start ups under stem cell fund:

Magnetic levitation stage for precision positioning in the nanometer scale: 

Diamagnetic levitation, PCB coils, graphite middle layer, magnet floats, use closed loop positioning

Constant in the differential equation itself is being changed 

(m,c,k in (ma+cv+kx=f)) with electromagnets to actuate the system instead of using 

force to actuate. Classic example: Vibrating inverted pendulumn on a speaker.
