Monitoring i analiza kvaliteta vazduha i meteoroloških parametara na gradilištu uz pomoć IoT tehnologija

Introduction/purpose: The construction industry is one of the main producers of dust, greenhouse gases and air pollutants. Effective operation and management of construction site operations can significantly reduce projects' carbon footprints and other environmental impacts. Through the cooperation of a scientific and research institution and a construction company, the real-time monitoring of air quality at a construction site was implemented using IoT technologies. Methods: An IoT-based system framework that integrates a distributed sensor network to collect real-time data and demonstrates air quality at a construction site was implemented. Different types of sensors were used to collect data related to NO2, PM2.5, and PM10 particles, as well as meteorological parameters - wind speed and direction, humidity, pressure, and temperature. Results: The results of real-time measurements provide a picture of the state of air pollution at the construction site and the connection with construction activities that can be managed in order to reduce the concentration of polluting gases and suspended particles. Through on-site monitoring of a construction site in Belgrade City, this study found that the dust level due to construction activities is relatively high. Conclusion: It can be concluded that the construction activity had a significant impact on the air quality in the construction surrounding areas. Regarding the main factors affecting the building construction dust emission, the correlations show that building construction dust emission was not significantly correlated with meteorological factors.

Music Psychological Meta-Analysis and Real-Time Measurement Algorithm Based on Nonlinear Dynamic Incremental Internal Model Algorithm

As an important part of aesthetic education, music is the artistic expression of human emotions. It has a crucial impact on the cultivation of individual music perception ability, music aesthetic ability, music creation ability, etc. The degree of influence of emotions and values in music runs through the individual. This study introduces a method to independently design a predictive controller using the theoretical framework of the state-space method. Since the same results as DMC can be derived, it can be regarded as an understanding of DMC in the time domain. We take the asymptotically stable object of SISO as the model and use the step response coefficient to directly model, but this method makes the control uncontrollable, so we use the method of adding the correction parameter to make the observable process more effective. The advantages of one-time online optimization can reduce the amount of calculation and greatly enhance the robustness in the control process. In order to study the dynamic characteristics of the system, an internal model control system is introduced. By studying the closed-loop stability of the internal model system, the internal model structure of the dynamic matrix control system is studied, and its dynamic characteristics are further studied. When analyzing the dynamic characteristics, we can know that the dynamic characteristics of the system only depend on the object characteristics and control strategies, and have nothing to do with the model length. This study introduces the basic structure, main properties, and design method of the internal model controller. On the basis of conventional internal model control, an enhanced internal model control method is introduced. Through the analysis of the sensitivity function and the complementary sensitivity function, the robust performance and robust stability of the enhanced internal model control system are studied. Music learning psychology is related to the effect of music teaching. Since individual psychological development is dynamic and controllable, by grasping students’ music learning motivation and music psychological ability, we can well practice the concept of contemporary new curriculum standards and implement high-quality music courses. This study mainly discusses the music learning psychology itself, the analysis of real-time measurement results, and the analysis of teaching countermeasures, and does some research on music theory and teaching practice. Through real-time measurement research, it can be concluded that the real-time measurement results are relatively optimistic, which shows that teachers can maintain students’ learning well as long as they use teaching methods that conform to students’ learning psychology. The nonlinear dynamic incremental internal model algorithm can improve students’ various music psychological abilities and achieve the expected music teaching goals.

Calibration-free mid-infrared exhaled breath sensor based on BF-QEPAS for real-time ammonia measurements at ppb level

Breath analysis, compared with blood analysis, can enable real-time non-invasive diagnostics through quantification of exhaled biomarkers. Here, we demonstrate, for the first time, a calibration-free mid-infrared (MIR) exhaled breath sensor for real-time ammonia measurements at ppb-level, which can be used for the non-invasive diagnosis of liver and kidney diseases. The exhaled breath sensor employs a 10.359-μm MIR quantum cascade laser (QCL) to target a strong NH3 absorption line and adopts the beat-frequency quartz-enhanced photoacoustic technique (BF-QEPAS) to remove the requirements of calibration process and wavelength locking in the conventional QEPAS technique. By studying the adsorption-desorption effect and optimizing the modulation depth and modulation frequency of the sensor system, a detection limit of 9.5 ppb is achieved at an integration time of 3 ms. The ammonia content exhaled by 8 healthy volunteers is recorded and the real-time measurement results are analyzed. Compared with conventional QEPAS sensors, the proposed BF-QEPAS-based sensor offers higher sensitivity, faster response time, as well as no need for calibration and wavelength locking.

DNA-based functionalization of two-dimensional MoS2 FET biosensor for ultrasensitive detection of PSA

Molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) field-effect transistor (FET) biosensors are being increasingly studied due to their highly sensitive and label-free biodetection, system-level integration and easy fabrication. However, the stability and detection ability of a pristine device deteriorate due to the absorption of H2O and CO and usually exhibit high false signals. Herein, a novel ecofriendly technology is employed to functionalize MoS2 FETs using the conjugation of a DNA tetrahedron and biotin-streptavidin (B-SA). The functionlized devices demonstrate ultrahigh sensitivity of the target protein (prostate-specific antigen, PSA) with a limit of detection of 1fg/mL and a wide linear range of 1fg/mL to 100ng/mL in a phosphate-buffered saline, which are 100 and 10,000 times higher than the reported highest values, respectively; these results are attributed to the stable immobilization provided by the DNA tetrahedron as well as the multilevel amplification and anchor system (B-SA system), which improves the antibody-antigen (Ab-Ag) binding. Real-time measurement results indicate that our proposed biosensor can also detect trace PSA (1fg/mL) in a clinically relevant sample of healthy human serum.

Verification of applicability of the Trimble RTX satellite technology with xFill function in establishing surveying control networks

Abstract The paper presents the results of real time measurements of test geodetic control network points using the RTK GPS and RTX Extended technologies. The Trimble RTX technology uses the xFill function, which enables real measurements without the need for constant connection with the ASG EUPOS system reference stations network. Comparative analyses of the results of measurements using the methods were performed and they were compared with the test control network data assumed to be error-free. Although the Trimble RTX technology is an innovative measurement method which is rarely used now, the possibilities it provides in surveying works, including building geodetic control networks, are satisfactory and it will certainly contribute to improving the organisation of surveying works.

대기 에어로졸 검댕입자 측정을 위한 두 aethalometer의 상호비교

Recently, a real-time, pocket-sized aethalometer (microAeth model AE51) has been developed by Magee Scientific Inc. for measuring the concentration of black carbon in the atmosphere. In this study, two aethalometers, models AE-16 and AE-51, which measure the optical absorption of carbon particles at infrared 880 nm, were operated at time interval of 5-min between January 9 and February 10, 2010 at an urban site of Gwangju, to compare the accuracy of black carbon (BC) concentrations reported from the AE-51 model and to investigate reasonable sampling time of filter media in the AE-51. The air samples in the AE-51 and AE-16 models are collected on T60 (Teflon coated glass fiber) filter media (filter spot area: 0.07 ) and quartz fiber roll-tape filter (filter spot area: 1.67 ), respectively. Real-time measurement results indicate that when the filters were clean, the AE-51 BC was greater than or similar to the AE-16 BC data. However as the filter spots become darker, the AE-16 BC concentrations were higher than the AE-51 BC data and the difference in the BC concentrations from two AE models becomes gradually increased. Relative error in the AE-51 and AE-16 BC concentrations showed significance difference depending on used time of the filter in the AE-51 model, weather pattern, levels of air pollution, etc, ranging from 11.5% (used time of the filter in AE-51: 1,595 min) to 52.5% (used time of the filter in AE-51: 2,085 min). When considering the used time of one filter ticket in the AE-51 model and difference (or relative error %) between AE-16 and AE-51 BC concentrations, it is recommended that the standard sampling time per one filter ticket within the AE-51 model be less than approximately 24 hr (1,440 min) under the normal weather conditions except for severe haze and mist events.

Real-time measurement of the three-axis contact force distribution using a flexible capacitive polymer tactile sensor

In this paper, we report real-time measurement results of various contact forces exerted on a new flexible capacitive three-axis tactile sensor array based on polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS). A unit sensor consists of two thick PDMS layers with embedded copper electrodes, a spacer layer, an insulation layer and a bump layer. There are four capacitors in a unit sensor to decompose a contact force into its normal and shear components. They are separated by a wall-type spacer to improve the mechanical response time. Four capacitors are arranged in a square form. The whole sensor is an 8 × 8 array of unit sensors and each unit sensor responds to forces in all three axes. Measurement results show that the full-scale range of detectable force is around 0–20 mN (250 kPa) for all three axes. The estimated sensitivities of a unit sensor with the current setup are 1.3, 1.2 and 1.2%/mN for the x-, y- and z-axes, respectively. A simple mechanical model has been established to calculate each axial force component from the measured capacitance value. Normal and shear force distribution images are captured from the fabricated sensor using a real-time measurement system. The mechanical response time of a unit sensor has been estimated to be less than 160 ms. The flexibility of the sensor has also been demonstrated by operating the sensor on a curved surface of 4 mm radius of curvature.

포장도로 재비산먼지 배출계수 산정을 위한 silt loading의 실시간 측정시스템 개발과 적용

Resuspended dust from paved roads in Seoul and Incheon metropolitan areas is regarded as one of the major <TEX>$PM_{10}$</TEX> sources in these areas, according to the recent emission estimates using the emission factors compiled in AP-42. It is well known that the AP-42 model for estimating <TEX>$PM_{10}$</TEX> emissions from paved roads requires information on silt loadings of particular paved roads. The conventional AP-42 method (vacuum swept method) for road silt sampling, however, is expensive, time consuming, and dangerous. These drawbacks led us to develop a Mobile Dust Monitoring System (MDMS) capable of doing real time measurements of silt loading of paved roads, thereby we could get higher resolution silt loading data both in terms of time and space without too much human efforts and danger. In this study, for the real-time measurement of silt loading of paved roads, the principle used in the TRAKER method of U.S. Desert Research Institute was employed and the entire sampling systems including data acquisition system were designed for theses purpose and mounted on a SUV. The correlation between the silt loading measured by vacuum swept method and the speed corrected <TEX>${\Delta}Dust$</TEX> was derived for the vehicle-based silt loading measurements, and then the variations of silt loading on paved roads were surveyed using the MDMS in test routes of Seoul and Incheon. From the results of real-time measurements, temporal and spatial variations of silt loading data together with the existence of hot spots were observed for paved roads in Seoul and Incheon. The result of this study will be employed to estimate fugitive dust emissions from paved roads.

Characterization of ion-implanted silicon-insulator interfaces by reflected optical second harmonic generation

Optical second harmonic generation has been applied for the study of the ion-implanted SiO 2 Sib(1 1 1) interface and Si(1 1 1) surfaces. Experimental results of real-time measurements of the second harmonic generation signal during thermal oxide etching are presented and analyzed taking into consideration various contributions to the non-linear-optical response from oxide/silicon interface such as the silicon substrate, the static electric field, the inhomogeneous deformation and the crystalline oxide interlayer. The symmetry properties of the thermal oxide/Si(1 1 1) interface have also been studied by measuring the rotational dependences of the second harmonic generation signal before and after oxide etching. It is shown that second harmonic rotational anisotropy and intensity strongly depend on the disordering of the interface and surface induced by ion implantation.

Nonlinear Optical Study of Si Epitaxy

AbstractThe applicability of the nonlinear optical technique of surface second-harmonic generation to in-situ studies of epitaxial and non-epitaxial crystal growth of centrosymmetric materials is demonstrated. In measurements of the deposition of atomic Si on Si(111)-7×7 surfaces, the (anisotropic) second-harmonic response is seen to be sensitive to the ordering of fractional monolayers of adatoms. For deposition on a substrate held at room temperature, the second-harmonic data are consistent with the formation of a disordered adlayer on top of the original reconstructed surface. The results of real-time measurements of the thermal annealing of disordered Si adlayers of monolayer thickness are also presented.
