Concurrent Measurement of Local and Global in-Plane Permeability of Reinforcement Fabrics through Real-Time Image Processing.

Properties of reinforcement fabrics, such as permeability, are typically characterized in a volume-averaging sense, whereas the fabric microstructure may vary spatially. This makes designing an effective resin infusion strategy for defect-free composite fabrication challenging. Our work presents a concurrent method for simultaneously measuring the local and global in-plane permeability and offers a handy technique for evaluating spatial variability. This experimental setup was similar to that of unidirectional in-plane permeability tests. The fabric, however, should be cut and tested along the angle bisector of warp and weft directions. The evolution of resin flow fronts was analyzed in real-time using in-house code through live video monitoring. The local and global in-plane permeability components were then obtained by applying Darcy's law regionally and globally. The results are in good agreement with those obtained by radial permeability experiments. Statistical analysis of local permeability reveals that the microstructure variability follows a normal distribution. A complete description of fabric microstructure provided by X-ray microcomputed tomography suggests that local permeability and microstructure variation are closely related, confirming the efficacy of the newly proposed method. This work enables the estimation of fabric structure variability and local and global in-plane permeability in a single test without resorting to expensive volume imaging techniques.

Due to the increasing security risks faced by children, both the parents need to monitor their child & #39; s activities. This paper proposes a system that uses an Android phone to monitor the child & #39; s activities. The system can also provide the parents with the necessary information about their child & #39; s safety. The paper also shows how this system can be used to create a safety zone around the child. The system can monitor the child & #39; s activities and create a safety zone around the child. It can also provide the parents with the necessary information about the child & #39; s location. The system is equipped with a video camera that can be operated using the instructions from the Android phone & #39; s software hand function. The video camera can also be used to capture the child & #39; s movements. This project & #39; s major goal is to create an IoTbased Child Monitoring System that will allow parents to watch and detect their children & #39; s activities even when they are away from home. It is an innovative, smart, and protected Child Monitoring System designed to efficiently nurture a newborn. This approach takes into account all of the minor elements necessary for the child & #39; s care and protection at the institution and elsewhere. The usage of technologies/methodologies such as the Internet of Things (IOT), Live Video Monitoring System, Cloud Computing (Data Storage), and User Friendly Web Application helps to build smartness and innovation (for User Controls). Different Sensors/Modules are fitted to the child in order to detect each and every activity. All data collected from sensors/modules will be kept in the cloud and examined on a regular basis.

The use of a long-acting tranquilizer (zuclopenthixol acetate) and live video monitoring for successful long-distance transport of caribou (Rangifer tarandus)

Long-distance transport of caribou (Rangifer tarandus) can result in morbidities and mortalities. This case report describes the use of a long-acting tranquilizer, zuclopenthixol acetate (ZA) and live video monitoring (LVM) to transport caribou over 2300 kilometers. Two groups of captive caribou were transported from Fort St. John, British Columbia to Dryden, Ontario (n=14; 28.5 h transport) and Anchorage, Alaska (n=11; 32 h transport). The day prior to transport, caribou were administered ZA at 1 mg/kg via deep intramuscular (IM) injection. Digital video cameras allowed for live observation of caribou during transport. Still images of videos from each compartment in the Ontario transport were analyzed for percentage (%) lying versus standing over three time periods (Day 1, Night, and Day 2). Overall, caribou spent 57% of the transport lying down, with the highest percentage occurring at night (73%). As group size and animal density decreased there was a trend for caribou to spend more time lying down. Three animals developed extrapyramidal effects to the ZA and were effectively treated with midazolam at 0.2 mg/kg IM. There were no significant visible injuries or mortalities during or up to 6 weeks post-transport. Zuclopenthixol acetate and LVM were used to successfully transport caribou over long distances and should be considered in future translocations to improve animal welfare during transport.

Internet Connected e-Healthcare System with Live Video Monitoring using LWIP Stack and SJF Priority Scheduling

Continuous monitoring of patients in critical condition becomes essential in medical field. This paper aims at developing an innovative IoT based remote healthcare monitoring system by using Free RTOS with priority scheduling based on SJF (Shortest Job First). Proposed system offers vital medical information and live video of a patient who is present in rural area. It can make easy and quick accessing of a patient by medical professional from remote areas. Also helps for detailed analysis and taking correct remedies to effectively cure that patient. Various health parameters such as patient's body temperature, heart rate, body position along with live video are been monitored through internet using this system. In Free RTOS used in programming, SJF based priority scheduling is chosen because of reduced average waiting and turnaround time of CPU on performing multiple tasks associated with the camera and other sensors. The internet connectivity part of program is built using LWIP TCP/IP stack in focus of limited microcontroller resource.

Quadcopter-Based Rapid Response First-Aid Unit with Live Video Monitoring

Air transport is the fastest way to reach areas with no direct land routes for ambulances. This paper presents the development of a quadcopter-based rapid response unit in an efficient aerial aid system to eliminate the delay time for first aid supplies. The system comprises a health monitoring and calling system for a field person working in open areas and a base station with the quadcopter. In an uncertain situation, the quadcopter is deployed from the base station towards the field person for immediate help through the specified path using constant Global System for Mobile (GSM)- and Global Positioning System (GPS)-based connections. The entire operation can be monitored at the base station with a Virtual Reality (VR) head-tracking system supported by a smartphone. The camera installed on the quadcopter is synchronized with the operator’s head movement while wearing a VR head-tracking system at the base station. Moreover, an Infrared (IR)-based obstacle-evasion model is implemented separately to explain the working of the autonomous collision-avoidance system. The system was tested, which confirmed the reduction in the response time to supply aid to the desired locations.

Development of a feature-based open soft-CNC system

Modern computer numerical control (CNC) is intended to be more flexible, interoperable, adoptable, open, and intelligent. In realisation of such a CNC system, an ISO standard known as STEP for numeric control (STEP-NC) or ISO 14649 was developed in 2004 to alleviate a number of challenges associated with the widely used CNC standard (ISO 6983). Implementation of STEP-NC was initially carried out on some commercial CNC systems via an indirect STEP-NC programming approach. However, this approach failed to meet all the requirements of a modern CNC system, due to the translation of data from the high level to low level, which is vendor-specific and machine tool dependent, thus detrimental to the basic resource independent philosophy of STEP-NC. This paper presents a new generation of CNC systems, based on the Open Architecture Control (OAC) technology supported by STEP-NC data model to fundamentally solve these challenges. The developed system employs a new set of techniques for STEP-NC data interpretation, graphical verification, execution, monitoring, and report generation that supersede the exiting techniques in scope and capability. Using these techniques, the proposed system provides a flexible, intelligent, and adaptable manufacturing platform that can provide unprecedented levels of scalability and resource allocation agility in modern manufacturing enterprises. A prototype implementation of the proposed model is based on STEP-NC interpretation, 3D simulation, machine motion control, and live video monitoring with automatic document generation modules has been used to verify and validate the system in conjunction with industrially inspired test components.
