Final sections look forward at the challenges that must be overcome in the development and use of sensing technology as well as their commercial use, making this book appropriate for the interdisciplinary community of researchers and practitioners interested in the development of sensor technologies. Covers a range of environmental applications such as protection and improvement of water, air, soil, plants, and agriculture and food production; biomedical applications including detection of viruses, genes, hormones, proteins, bacteria, and cancer, and applications in construction such as fire protection, automotive, robotics, food packing and micro-machining Provides an outlook on opportunities and challenges for the fabrication and manufacturing of sensors in industry and their applicability for industrial uses Demonstrates how cutting-edge developments in sensing technology translate into real-world innovations in a range of industry sectors
Download or read book Unit Manufacturing Processes written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 1995-01-03 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Manufacturing, reduced to its simplest form, involves the sequencing of product forms through a number of different processes. Each individual step, known as an unit manufacturing process, can be viewed as the fundamental building block of a nation's manufacturing capability. A committee of the National Research Council has prepared a report to help define national priorities for research in unit processes. It contains an organizing framework for unit process families, criteria for determining the criticality of a process or manufacturing technology, examples of research opportunities, and a prioritized list of enabling technologies that can lead to the manufacture of products of superior quality at competitive costs. The study was performed under the sponsorship of the National Science Foundation and the Defense Department's Manufacturing Technology Program.

Download or read book Techniques for Monitoring Structural Behaviour of Pipeline Systems written by Christopher Reed and published by American Water Works Association. This book was released on 2004 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This project did a thorough review of the potential techniques which could monitor the structural performance of operationally critical mains (those 30" or 760mm in diameter and larger) of potable water distribution systems. The objective was to increase effective pipeline management as it relates to predictive failure. Parameters studied were global, local and environmental monitoring and the technologies studies were continuous, remote and in-pipe sensing. Gathering data from range of different sensors(aircraft, satellites, within and on pipes) proved the most optimal, with the understanding that further study of newer methods is recommended.

Download or read book Advanced Transducer Technology Volume II Survey of Transducers for Physical Security Sensors written by Wendell R. Peters and published by . This book was released on 1976 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report documents the results of a survey aimed at the identification and evaluation of new materials or techniques which could potentially advance the state-of-the-art in intrusion detection and perimeter surveillance systems. The emphasis here is not on complete systems but is concerned for the most part with the transduction phenomena, that is, the conversion of some intrusion generated disturbances into an output signal. The targets of interest in considering sensors or transduction phenomena are vehicles and humans. The primary types of transducers which have been employed for the detection of these disturbances have been seismic, acoustic, magnetic, electromagnetic, infrared, pressure and ultrasonic sensors. The sources (1971-1976) used in searching for new developments included the International Aerospace Abstracts, Engineering Index, Scientific and Technical Aerospace Reports, STAR, Science Abstracts, Electrical and Electronics Abstracts, DDC computer search and other miscellaneous documents. Most of the papers selected for review and those which are reported in this document are refinements of previous types of detectors using new fabrication techniques, lower cost, improved ruggedness, lower power consumption, higher sensitivitiy or increased bandwidth. Areas discussed were concentrated on acoustic, magnetic, electromagnetic, infrared and pressure transducers. (Author).
