The major challenges and their solutions will be discussed as follows.:
Earthquake

Earthquakes are simply a series of vibrations due to movements below the Earth that have the potential to cause immense damage and destruction at the Earth’s surface. During the past earthquakes right from Bihar 1988, Killari 1993, Chamoli 1999, Bhuj 2001, Andaman 2002, Sumatra 2004, Jammu and Kashmir 2005, Sikkim 2006, Nepal 2015, Imphal 2016 and many others  it is observed that maximum loss of life is occurred due to failure of Civil Engineering Structures. As it is evident from previous earthquakes the 1994 Northridge (California US) earthquake produced the highest ever insured earthquake loss of approximately US$14 billion, and the US$150 billion cost of the 1995 Kobe (Japan) earthquake was the highest ever absolute earthquake loss. And thereby affecting the national economy of the effected countries. Coburn and Spence (2002) reported the economic losses due to earthquake from 1972 to 1990: the three largest losses as the properties of the GNP (Gross National Product) were in the central American Countries of Nicaragua (1972, 40% GNP) Guatemala (1976,18% GNP) and El Salvador (1986, 31% GNP). In India 2001 Bhuj earthquake made a total loss of US$ 7Billion and because of which US$ 16Billion have been invested in Bhuj area which caused a GDP loss of US$ 23Billion. During the international conference RAITEA 2019 keynote speakers Dr. Rajesh Kumar Dhakal (Professor of Structural and Earthquake Engineering at University of Canterbury, Christchurch, Newzeland), Dr. Vaisel Golubev (Senior Researcher, Applied Mathematics Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology, Russia), Dr. Neelima Satyam (Professor, Civil Engineering Department , IIT Indore) and researchers will present their research papers on how to make earthquake resistant buildings. If these structures are well designed and well constructed then even violent earthquakes will not be able to destroy them. so that existing buildings can be saved and ultimately the  precious lives can be saved,
The conference will cover a wide variety of subjects on Earthquake Engineering including the following topics:
·                     Earthquake  Disaster Risk Reduction
·                     Post Disaster Recovery and Reconstruction

Recently, nature-inspired methods have emerged as powerful optimization algorithms for solving complex problems. Nature-inspired Optimization algorithms are used in automation of robots so that their behavior is close to humans as well as intelligent. Such robots are not just the instruments using artificial intelligence, but they are close to human clones as we see in terminator 2 kind movies. These robots are capable of performing surgeries in operation theatre, replace waiters in restaurants. They have already replaced security guards in many of the busy international airports. They assist differently abled persons to lead a normal life.  All these robots are embedded with nature-inspired optimization algorithms.

Electric vehicles
Electric vehicles are considered to be superior technology than internal combustion engine vehicle from an efficiency and environmental perspective. They are about four times as efficient as vehicles with an internal combustion engine at using the energy delivered to the vehicle to overcome vehicle road load. As per the society of Manufacturing of Electric Vehicles, the population of e-vehicles is growing at the rate of 37.5% in India. India aspires to become 100% EV nation by 2030. However, one of the major roadblocks in the growth of e-vehicles is availability and viability of charging infrastructure in India. The Power electronics based circuit controllers are the major contributors to control the various functions of an electric vehicle. In the light of the above background, it makes a compelling objective to study the commercial viability of e-vehicles and charging infrastructure required for it. Hence, our international conference focuses on the research papers simulated on detailed study on the different components of electric vehicles viz., motor control, control circuits, static and dynamic characteristics of batteries, design and control of power electronic based devices, algorithms used to control the photovoltaic operations etc.
