Prior to the kick-off event, component 1 and 3 of the Twinning project (IPPC) already had a few missions, including a mission with a workshop and two site visits on fuel stations (regarding vapour recovery aka stage II), led by Mr. Richard Schlachta and Mr. Heinz Baumgarten – experts from the last Twinning project who are continuing, a mission on material streams, led by Ms Anja Schwetje, and a mission on communication and visibility, led by Mr. Joerg Frauenstein, whose other expertise is soil protection.
Both Ms Schwetje and Mr. Frauenstein are new to this Twinning project.
At the week of the kick-off event, there were four missions, focusing on visibility and communications, soil protection, EMAS and energy efficiency (with four experts from two countries, Germany and UK, respectively).
Visibility saw the finalization of the project’s website and newsletter, as carried out by Ms Keya Choudhury on the European; Ms Naomi Lipstein and Ms Sari Zimmerman on the Israeli side.
For EMAS, the component leader, Ms Monika Brom (UBA Austria), met with her Israeli counterpart, Mr. Ohad Carny (MoEP).
Mr. Carny, who is also the component leader for resource efficiency, had intensive discussions with three German experts (Mr. Christian Kuehne, Mr. Heinz-Jochen Poremski and Ms Judit Kanthak), as well as with Mr. Sandy Truesdale from Nothern Ireland. Both components were successfully launched, and missions planned. In IPPC, which is already on the way (and the only component continued from the last Twinning project), Mr. Klaus Rehda made significant contributions to further planning with his Israeli counterparts, especially the head of the soil protection and wastewater unit, Mr. Avi Haim.
Overall, it was a successful week with fruitful discussions that resulted in a clear plan on the objectives and planned results of this Twinning project, and where experts from all three MS countries and from Israel harmoniously cooperated. | mechanical_engineering |

In this engaging, hands-on course, students will discover the power of mathematical modeling with Algebraic functions. Through a variety of engineering design projects, students must utilize functions to optimize the outcome of each challenge. Students will see parallels between the mathematical modeling cycle (top image at right) and the engineering design process (bottom image at right) in each unit. Students will design parachutes, bungee jumps, boats, balloon rockets, a variety of water fountains, and, as a capstone project, a thermally resistant beverage container along with product proposal and pitch. Students will document calculations, graphical relationships, sketches of prototypes and final designs in an engineering notebook that includes summaries of each project and ideas for future redesigns. By building understanding of functions, graphs, equations, and algebraic relationships, students will see how mathematical understanding can verify optimal performance and design in a variety of applications.
Unit 1 : Introduction to the Engineering Design Cycle
Unit 1 Description
Students are introduced to the Engineering Design cycle by learning its five phases and then experiencing it firsthand through 3 different situations: designing a parachute, creating and calibrating a spring scale, and calculating the appropriate distance for a bungee jump. Through this unit, students must 1) Define a problem, 2) Plan and build a prototype, 3) Test the prototype, 4) Measure results, and 5) Analyze data to propose improvements. Students will carefully design ways to gather and record data in all three assignments in this unit, and will analyze the data to learn key mathematical relationships involving surface area, Hooke’s Law, linear equations (slope/intercept form), graphical analysis, and experimental research.
Unit 1 Key Assignments
1: Students are given a set of materials and asked to make a parachute apparatus that will keep a paper clip payload aloft for the longest possible time, while also attempting to land within a specified target area. Given only plastic sandwich bags, string, tape, and an index card, students design and assemble their parachute apparatus to accomplish two objectives. The first performance metric is the measured length of time the apparatus remains in the air when dropped from a specified height, while the second metric is the measured landing distance from the plumb line point located on the landing surface. Students follow the engineering design process by first drawing up initial plans of their prototypes in their engineering notebooks, which are then reviewed and approved before getting the materials.
Once assembled, students drop the apparatus and record the hang time, as well as the distance between the landing point and the target point. Students then measure the surface area and make a scatter plot of surface area versus hang time, and surface area versus target accuracy (distance from target point). Using the data, students investigate the relationship between the input variables (surface area) and the output variables (hang time and horizontal distance traveled from target landing point). Students identify the key physical factors affecting output, while recognizing the potential for an optimal performance. They use their quantitative analysis and observational data to justify any redesign to their projects. They will redesign and test to see if mathematical analysis improved their projects.
2: To develop understanding of elastic materials and linear equations, student teams will compete to design, build, and test the most accurate “mass weighing device” that could be used to determine the weight of household objects. Through the research and testing process, students will discover the linear nature of springs through Hooke’s Law. Students will begin by analyzing the relationship between an input force (weight) and the resulting extension of a given elastic material. By graphing their data and using a best fit analysis, students will establish a linear relationship between the independent variable (force/weight) and the dependent variable (stretch length) and interpret the significance of the line’s slope. Teams then construct the device and test it for accuracy by weighing a variety of objects and performing error analysis compared to an electronic scale. Students will understand the nature of linear functions, their slope through testing various inputs, and observing how the output changes. Teams will finally be given a set of three unknown masses to weigh, and students will share their results as a class. Students will analyze the class data to determine the standard deviation, and percent error against the accepted weight values.
3: [Note: This could be an extension/optional assignment based upon students’ developing facility with math and engineering.]
Acting as engineering consultants, students are hired by an outdoor adventure company to design a safe and economical bungee jump that meets the company’s specifications. Armed with their newfound knowledge of both functions and the behavior of elastic springs, students then begin dynamic testing of various bungee jumps of various weight ranges specified by the adventure company, but for a specific “jump length” to maximize exhilaration. By plotting the data as a class, students will find the acceptable domains of the independent variable (weight ranges of potential customers) when other variables are fixed (height, elasticity of bungee cord). Students will identify the linear relationship between falling distance, and the length of the cord as well as the significance of the slope’s dependence on the falling weight. After analyzing the data, students share their design details with the company in a written report that specifies the optimal cord length range as a function of the customer’s weight.
Unit 2 : Archimedes’ Challenge
Unit 2 Description
Students design and construct rectangular paper boats that must keep various objects afloat. Students first identify the input parameters of the design specifications and then calculate dimensions for the initial designs of their vessel. Once the students have created design sketches in their engineering notebooks, they will then be given the materials to create prototypes for testing. For each iteration, students measure and record data on surface area and volume, which is then shared in a data repository so that the class can track performance data. The metric used for this design challenge will be to create the boat with the least surface area that can successfully keep the object above water. Once the prototype boats have been created, students will test their boats. After the initial test, students will then return to the design phase to revisit their initial ideas and make modifications. Performance information will be shared and the class will analyze mathematical relationships like surface area to volume, length and width ratios, and any other relevant data patterns. Using insight from these relationships, students will be able to incorporate the analysis into the redesign process for subsequent boats.
Unit 2 Key Assignments
1: Students are given cardboard materials and asked to design and construct a rectangular boat that must float when carrying a unique payload: their phone. Students first cut out squares of varying sizes from the four corners of the material, and must decide how high to make the boat’s walls. Students determine the buoyant forces for various boat designs by altering the volume of the boat (a rectangular solid). To maximize volume (which determines buoyancy), students must set up and solve a quadratic equation whose solutions reveal what size squares to cut out from each corner of the cardboard rectangle before folding the sides up to construct the boat. Students will record all equations and design calculations in their engineering notebooks, along with scale drawings of each prototype design. Students will cite mathematical evidence in a summary statement that cites the technical reasons for their final design.
2: Students now must design and construct a new boat that must float two phones. Doubling the payload forces students to again optimize their materials by using equations from Assignment #1 to find new solutions for a boat requiring twice the buoyant forces. Students will be asked to consider how they could use the optimization function to find the dimensions of any new boat that must hold a specific weight. Students will hypothesize how the function parameters must change in order to scale for a different input weight, then must solve a second quadratic equation to see how the dimensions must change to double the buoyancy of this new boat. Students record all calculations and new design drawings in their engineering notebooks.
3: Students must utilize their algebraic function to make one more design, this time the boat is made from cardboard and must hold…a student! Students must consider how scaling a boat affects each dimension, each property of the boat, (surface area, volume), and must determine if their design can hold a student’s weight. Using the math skills learned from the first two assignments, students will design this third boat for the lightest weighing student in their group, then must float the boat for the longest amount of time in a culminating competition against the entire class. Upon completion of the competition, all students write a paragraph in their engineering notebook that summarizes the key mathematical concepts learned in the unit, including: the importance of mathematical modeling, how to optimize a design by solving quadratic equations, and how increasing the scale of a prototype affects the design parameters for an increased payload.
Unit 3 : Quadratics in The Garden - Designing A Fountain
Unit 3 Description
Students will design a water fountain by writing multiple quadratic equations and graphing them to represent decorative parabolic streams of water. Students will write and graph quadratic equations in both Vertex and Standard Form. The various streams of water will originate from different heights and have different trajectories, requiring students to work in both the first and second quadrants of the cartesian coordinate system. Students must calculate the x and y coordinates of each apex, and each starting and ending point of the stream of water, along with its axis of symmetry, to ensure a decorative and aesthetically pleasing fountain. Once the design is completed, the students must calculate which types of pumps they will need to purchase for each stream of water by analyzing the required pressure and orifice size to ensure the required velocity to ensure the streams follow their designed trajectory.
Unit 3 Key Assignments
1: Graphing through x-intercepts:
Students graph quadratics by graphing the x-intercepts first after factoring a simple quadratic equation that fits their first stream of water for the fountain. Students must identify and draw the axis of symmetry by finding the midpoint of the x-intercepts and then locate the vertex of the parabola that will be the stream of water’s trajectory. This method allows students to make connections between the x-intercepts and the parabola. Students draw a sketch of the parabola along with all calculations into their Engineering Notebooks to clarify that the x-intercepts determine the beginning and ending points of each stream of water. Students will also label the x and y coordinates of the vertex, and explain in a short summary how they located each key point of the parabola and describe its significance. Finally, students will plot their equations using an electronic graphing tool (Desmos, Plotly, graphing calculator), verify whether or not their handwritten graphs are accurate, and cite any domain and range restrictions for their designed fountains.
2: Graphing through vertex form:
Students will now write equations for two more streams of water in the fountain, but they will find the key points from different information and through a different method of mathematical analysis. Students will be given the apex of two opposing (but symmetrical) streams of water, and must use the vertex form of quadratic equations to find the x-intercepts. Once the quadratic equation that describes the parabolic trajectory is written, students will then convert it from Vertex Form to Standard Form. This will allow students make connections between the vertex and the parabola. Students will accurately draw each parabola, write the equation in both forms, and describe in their engineering notebooks how to use both Vertex Form and how to convert it to Standard Form for parabolas. Students will also write a short summary of how to precisely determine the apex and x-intercepts, and what the significance of each point is for each stream of water.
3: Exploring the leading coefficient:
Students will use online graphing software to explore and understand the impact of various leading coefficients by graphing different quadratic equations in different forms. At first, students will be given x-intercepts, and must write the equation in standard form, then adjust the height of the parabola by adjusting the leading coefficient (scalar multiple). Second, when given the vertex, students will change the leading coefficient to observe the effect on the x-intercepts. Students again will write a summary that explains how the leading coefficient affects the shape of each stream of water. Using this new understanding, students are asked to add two more streams of water that would add to the aesthetic beauty of the existing streams of water (from Assignments 1 and 2). Students must use various “a values” for their new parabolas to show understanding, and must sketch the trajectories in their engineering notebooks along with the appropriate quadratic equations for each new stream of water.
4: Design of Water Fountain
Starting from scratch, students are challenged to create an entirely new water fountain of their own design. Using what they learned from the first three assignments, they must graph and write the equation (in both Standard and Vertex Form) for each stream of water. Students must include appropriate domains and ranges for each equation written. Once the design is complete, the instructor will help students with kinematic equations from physics to find the required velocity to make each fountain precisely match the designed trajectory. Once provided with this velocity, students then research various water pumps by finding the required pressure rating (in psi, or pounds per square inch) for each pump and then identify available pumps from various suppliers (ex. Granger, Ingersoll/Rand, etc.). Students will write a detailed cost proposal that includes specific pump models, specifications, and velocities, and must support their proposal with mathematical evidence justifying the cost of each pump. If budgets allow for it, teachers have the option of actually ordering enough pumps to assemble and test the designed fountains and see if the calculated x-intercepts, apexes, and axes of symmetry match the design.
Extension Assignment - CAD Design of Water Fountain
Using a freely available CAD software program like Sketch-Up or TinkerCAD, students will design the fountain as a virtual 3D object, using the previous calculations to specify the dimensions of the design.
Unit 4 : Balloon Rockets
Unit 4 Description
Students will follow the design process to design a transport vehicle that will travel an unknown distance powered by an inflated balloon. Built from simple materials, the student-made vehicles will race across the room while suspended from two fishing lines. Students will implement and diagram the Universal Systems Model of problem solving to develop their vehicles. Once built, students will gather test data to explore mathematical relationships and patterns between the balloon’s volume, radius, and distance traveled. Students will plot multiple data points for a wide variety of balloon volumes to develop a graph that will allow them to use the relevant independent variable (balloon size) to predict the value of the dependent variable (distance traveled). Students will then be given a predetermined distance, and must use their established function to inflate their balloon accordingly to make their vehicle precisely travel the target distance.
Unit 4 Key Assignments
1: Problem Definition and Idea Generation
Students first draw up plans for their prototypes, which must be approved before getting the materials. Students will create thumbnail sketches, a rough sketch, and a final scaled drawing using measurement of inches. All sketches, drawings, and design notes will be done in students’ engineering notebooks.
2: Build The Design
Students will build their design using household materials (paper towel rolls, straws, string, toothpicks, cardboard, etc.). Each student will get a balloon of the same size and color. Students are to build their prototype to carry an object of their choice (lego figurine, washer, weight, etc.). The object must be able to be set on the vehicle without being attached in any way. Students will be given an initial minimum distance their vehicle must travel, as well as a maximum balloon diameter. Students continue to use their engineering notebooks to record data, sketches and such.
3: Test and Collect and Analyze
Students will use the mathematical model to figure out a predictable output for their balloon transport vehicle. Using the data, students determine what relationship there is between the variables and write a function equation using proper function notation. They will retest their designs by changing fuel input (balloon inflation) and corresponding mass of vehicle until they find a formula that will allow them to plot data points to accurately predict an outcome. Students will document their design drawings, their test results, and their reflections on the process into their engineering notebooks to record the relationship between balloon volume and distance traveled. On test day they should be able to use their data points based on previous investigation, that will allow them to know how much fuel they will need to reach the unknown distance.
4: Enrichment Activity
Performance information will be shared and the students will analyze possible patterns in the data. Students will incorporate the analysis into the redesign process for subsequent redesigns of their vehicles. After students reach the unknown distance on test day, they now must reach that distance using the least amount of fuel as possible. They must optimize fuel usage to determine the most efficient balloon transport vehicle. They will redesign and test to see if mathematical analysis improved their projects.
Unit 5 : Build A Better Bottle
Unit 5 Description
In this unit, students will investigate the behavior of exponential functions while designing a product whose behavior models exponential decay through heat loss. Students will employ the engineering design process to conceive and create an insulated coffee cup/bottle that is constrained by several inputs: size, material costs, safety, and thermal properties. The project begins by defining the needs of the customer and the appropriate design parameters and limitations. Students will then research Newton’s Law of Cooling to better understand how an exponential decay function describes the performance of any device that is designed to retain heat. Students will then explore the container’s behavior by altering different initial conditions and then using temperature sensors to gather and record data for multiple trials. By graphing this data, students will develop the shape of the cooling curve, and will use graphing tools to match the mathematical function (exponential) to their data. Students then engage in the design process to investigate problem parameters by researching material thermal resistances and material costs. Students create initial design drafts and calculate the material costs for constructing their product. They then either use a CAD program (or traditional drafting techniques) to finalize their designs, while also calculating the thermal transfer parameters of their design. The students can then use these input parameters in the exponential model to determine the cooling rate for different liquids at different initial temperatures. Finally students create a proposal that includes the efficiency of their design as well as the calculated material cost. These proposals are presented as ideas to a “product manager” who assesses the manufacturability, cost and performance of the proposed products.
Unit 5 Key Assignments
1: Students use temperature sensors or thermometers to measure the cooling rates of a fluid of fixed volume in a coffee cup/water bottle. Students graph the data and then use a graph matching tool (LoggerPro, Excel, Plotly, etc.) to deduce the appropriate type of mathematical function. After sharing data with the entire class, students discuss the similarities and differences between quadratic functions and the behavior of the cooling function. Exponential functions are then introduced with the basic exponential function (y = ax), and students are given multiple examples of both growth and decay, along with numerous applications where these situations apply to physical phenomena.
Students are then given the specific mathematical structure of the cooling function:
T(t) = Ae-kt +TA
Students analyze how the different coefficients (A,TA , -k) change the position and curvature of the exponential function. Other exponentials are also investigated in order to establish a common pattern. The goal of this assignment is to help guide the students towards an analytical tool for determining a performance function for their product. Students record data gathered and discussion notes in their engineering notebooks in preparation for the culminating assignment.
2: Research Thermal Resistance and Thermal Qualities of Materials
Students research the physical parameters that actually affect the cooling function. This leads then to a discussion and further research into thermal properties of materials. Further investigations are designed to strengthen student understanding of how surface area, thermal resistivity, and thickness change the curvature of the cooling function. Student groups investigate the cooling rate of a known liquid through different containers with different surface areas, different thicknesses and different materials. Students will collectively produce a data report and analysis of the experimental input’s effect on cooling.
3: Design A Better Liquid Holder
Students are now given the design challenge parameters for designing a better liquid holder. The design requirements outline specific design parameters such as the size specifications of the product (must fit in a standard size cup holder), the function of the container (must have removable lid and handle), and the cost range of the product. To better understand the consumer sales perspective of designing products, student designers will survey other students to get customer input on size, shape, and feel of various beverage containers. Once designers have enough responses to ensure statistical significance, they must then compile the data using a scatter plot or other graphical display to demonstrate understanding of customer preferences, so that any functionally-driven design decisions also consider the marketability of the product. Students then produce design drawings of their product, including material choice and construction design. Once their designs are completed, students must justify the design parameters using mathematical evidence from their explorations of Newton’s Law of Cooling equation. All reflections, calculations, and design sketches are all entered in their engineering notebooks.
Extension Assignment: Model and Predict Product Performance
Using a software thermal analysis tool (Fusion360, etc), students can model the performance of their product based on the design they have proposed. Students generate a thermal analysis report and performance prediction based on material cost and design specs.
Unit 6 : Design a “FUNctional” GUI
Unit 6 Description
To provide students with an opportunity to use and apply their learning from the year in a new engineering context, students review the functional models covered throughout the course by designing and writing the code for graphical user interfaces, (“apps”) that simulate calculators for each of the mathematical representations or engineering equations covered in the course. The calculator accepts user input for the functional parameters of the problem, and generates the output for each functional model. By writing the computer code that processes the inputs to deliver the correct output, students must thoroughly understand the equations, possible inputs (including appropriate domains for independent variables), and must verify the outputs are flawlessly correct.
Unit 6 Key Assignments
1: Students have been hired to design a calculator app which simulates different mathematical functions related to the engineering principles studied in the course. Students identify the parameters that each method definition should accept from the user by reviewing the parameters found in each of the three functional representations, and should define what each parameter will represent for the real-world model. The teacher should check that students generate the following functions and parameters:
- Linear: Parameters will likely be the slope (or rate) and y-intercept (starting value). A variation to this might be a linear equation in point-slope form with the slope as one parameter and the x and y coordinates of a data point as the other parameters to the method written.
- Quadratic: Parameters will likely be the a, b, and c values (determined by user input). A typical representation for this might include the equation for projectile motion, with ‘a’ equal to the gravitational constant and the velocity (b) and starting height(c) of the projectile determined by user input.
- Exponential: a and b values determined by the user. One example might include the cooling function studied in the previous unit, with (A,TA , -k) as the coefficients entered by the user.
For each of the three models or apps, students create a “Know/Need to Know” list for the app, which will inform their design decisions. Students write a formal proposal for each app they will design, and a timeline for the project.
2: Once students have written the “interface” for the apps, they design each graphical screen which the user will interact with. Students define the screen or frame size according to their desired platform (Android, iPhone, website, etc.) and the typical “consumer” who will use each application, by researching and collecting data on their consumers, and using that data to inform the design decisions they make for the overall layout, colors, text fields, and buttons on the screen. Students create a Google Form and/or survey for their target audience, with directed questions that will inform the design decisions for the graphical components on their app. Based on their ideal “consumer,” students must determine the questions and information needed for adequate feedback and informed decisions, and must then market the survey to the typical “consumer” within their community.
After gathering market data, students design and color their screen on graph paper, or using a computer application, then present a design proposal to the class for evaluation. After reaching a final design decision, students must identify the x and y coordinates, and dimensions needed, to properly place each component, then write the code for generating the graphical design.

Never Underestimate the Importance of Intake Valve Cleaning
Several automobile manufacturers have switched their fuel injection systems to Gasoline Direct Injection (GDI) systems, under pressure from a government mandate to increase fuel efficiency. California Autohaus works on GDI systems in European vehicles, including Audi, BMW, Land Rover and Mercedes-Benz.
GDI shoots fuel directly into a combustion chamber under extremely high pressure, improving fuel economy by as much as 25%. However, GDI also accumulates deposits that clog intake valves often causing difficult to diagnose warning lights and performance issues; this is why our team of certified technicians has mastered intake valve cleaning.
Intake Valve Cleaning, Performed Efficiently
We know our customers have several options for engine, steering and air conditioner repair services in the Encinitas vicinity.

The skyscraper is now 13 feet above the former record holder, Tapei 101 in Taiwan, which is 1,667 feet above the ground.
Burj Dubai is the tallest building now, and according to the official site, it’s nowhere near finished. The final height and number of stories are a secret.
When finished, the building will be comprised of 330,000 cubic meters of concrete, 39,000 metric tons of steel rebar, and 142,000 square meters of glass–which will take 22 million man hours to complete.
Otis Elevator is installing 66 elevators and escalators, including two to the top observation deck. They will be the longest elevators in the world and travel at more than 20 miles per hour.
Here’s an artist’s impression of how the skyscraper will loom over the city of Dubai when completely finished, which is expected in June 2008. | mechanical_engineering |

- Lift up the lid of the canister lid to open.
- Pull up on the plastic card leading to the vacuum port and lift up to pull the bag out of the canister. ...
- Discard the used bag.
- Place a new bag into the canister, sliding the plastic card into the guide rails.
If Roomba® continues to indicate the bin is full after you have emptied the bin, it means you have not thoroughly cleaned the bin full sensors and/or the sensor ports. Full bin sensors on the robot.
【Reusable Vacuum Bags for Roomba】You can empty dust and debris through the zip opening on the vacuum bag, so you don't have to throw it away after use. Each vacuum replacement bag can be reused about 3-5 times to meet your long-term replacement needs.
To replace a full bag
Pull up on the plastic card leading to the vacuum port and lift up to pull the bag out of the canister. Note: This will seal the bag so no additional dust or debris can get out. Discard the used bag. Place a new bag into the canister, sliding the plastic card into the guide rails.
- You can press the HOME button on the robot when it is on the Clean Base™.
- Press the "Empty Bin" button in the app. If your robot is on the Clean Base™, this button will appear directly under the CLEAN button in the iRobot® HOME App.
The 3 bags should last about a season of use, so you'll most likely need 12 bags a year.
If there is a solid red LED lit up on your Clean Base™ Automatic Dirt Disposal, this means the bag will need to be replaced.
Open the iRobot® HOME App and ensure your mobile device is connected to the same Wi-Fi network as your Wi-Fi connected Roomba®. Press Settings ➔ Remove/Factory Reset (robot name).
Triggering the Roomba to manually enter debris into the base can reset the device and get it to start emptying again: Pressing the HOME button when the Roomba is at the base will empty the bin.
Yes. The Roomba series 700 and higher-level models that have a full bin indicator that will notify when it is time to empty it. Check to see if your indicator is dirty and needs to be cleaned since this will hinder the sensor from working. Roomba is a smart device that does the cleaning for you when you are away.
How often do you have to empty Roomba bin?
Most robot vacuum makers say you should empty their robots' dustbins after each cleaning session. Both iRobot and Neato suggest this for their Roomba and Botvac models. iRobot even tells you to rinse robot bins with warm water, then to let it air dry.
Press the bin release button on the back of the robot to remove the bin. The bin release tab has a bin icon on it. Open the bin door to empty the bin.
Automatically empty the tray of your Roomba® robot; you do not have to think about vacuuming for months. Uses closed Dirt Disposal bags that can be easily discarded without a cloud of dust. Each bag holds 60 days of dirt, dust and hair.
While cleaning, the robot will automatically return to the Clean Base™ Charging Station + Automatic Dirt Disposal to empty its bin and recharge. The indicator on the Dirt Disposal will illuminate solid red when a new bag is needed.
It's really up to you. We would recommend four to seven times a week. If you live in a big house with mainly carpeted areas, it's better to clean more frequently. Pet owners should also clean their homes every day to remove excessive fur shedding.
(Note: Maximum cleaning time per room is 25 minutes.) For example: Your Roomba and home base are located in the family room (Room 1).
It works by feel every time, adapting to changes in furniture and other objects. Thus, you should have no issues changing floors. However, you will want to relocate both the Roomba and its docking station when changing floors. The unit should be started from the docking station, so it has a place to return 'home' to.
Roomba® can also learn your home as it cleans. It typically takes three (3) to five (5) cleaning missions or Mapping Runs to generate a fully developed Imprint™ Smart Map that you can then customize and use.
Roomba® 900 Series and Braava jet
Robots that use iAdapt® 2.0 Navigation Technology with Visual Localization can systematically navigate your cleaning area, utilizing the camera to identify landmarks to help Roomba® understand its location.
Potential Clog in the Clean Base™
Remove any debris from the debris evacuation port on the bottom of the Clean Base. Unplug the Clean Base™ Charging Station + Automatic Dirt Disposal from the wall. Clean the Clean Base™ debris evacuation tubing on the bottom, and then remove any debris.
Does rebooting Roomba delete everything?
A soft reset preserves all user data in the companion app, including logins, saved maps, and preferences. You can do a hard reset in the Roomba app, which will eliminate all of your personal data from the bot, the app, and Roomba's cloud storage.
Roomba® s Series: Press and hold the CLEAN button on your robot for 20 seconds. When the button is released, the light ring around the bin lid will swirl clockwise in white. It may take up to a minute-and-a-half for your robot to turn on. The reboot procedure is complete when the light ring shuts off.
While the iRobot® HOME App provides many benefits, a Wi-Fi or App connection is not required for Roomba® and Braava jet® to clean. For Roomba®, Clean, Dock, and Spot Clean do not require a connection to the app.
It told TechRadar, it largely comes down to personal cleaning preferences. “We often hear from our Roomba customers with pets, kids, or who live in areas with a high-allergen count and dust and debris, that the greatest benefit for them is that they can run Roomba as often as they need,” it said.
Always keep Roomba plugged in when not in use. Recharge Roomba as soon as possible. Waiting several days to recharge Roomba can damage the battery. For storage off the power supply, remove the battery from Roomba and store in a cool, dry place.
Roombas in the 700, 800, and 900 Series will tell you it is full when the red trashcan light begins to blink on the very top of it. All you have to do is: Pull the bin out. Take out the trash.
You're less likely to reintroduce debris if you go with a self-emptying bot. It's even more valuable if you live in a large house with a lot of floor space to cover. The robot vacuum will clean more efficiently, and you won't have to empty it multiple times per run.
Fortunately, doing so is pretty easy. Step 1: Press the bin release button on the back of your Roomba vacuum. This switch is marked by a trash can icon. After doing so, the entire dirt bin will slip out of the vacuum.
The life expectancy of a Roomba (from personal experiences) is approximately 2–5 years, depending on how well a person manages them. | mechanical_engineering |

At each construction site, work on the mechanical part of the building (or individual houses) begins with the laying of pipes and the installation of water supply. In buildings (individual houses), pipes are laid inside designated mines. The quality of the selected material and the work done are very important to prevent future leaks or similar problems.
The drinking water supply of residential buildings (individual houses) and other catering facilities is calculated according to the norms. According to normative documents, drinking water must be epidemiologically and radiation-safe, chemically innocuous and of satisfactory quality.
Water pumps are installed to ensure that water reaches every point at equal pressure. The water lines of most residential buildings (individual homes) are laid inside the mines. Some parts remain under the plaster on the floor or wall. Correct piping and professional work are therefore a prerequisite.
Sewer systems are an important element for the area they cover. This system is an underground device for wastewater discharge. Pipes are installed at a certain angle at a certain angle to increase the sewage flow and keep the pipes clean.
In order to avoid problems in the future, water supply systems, gutters and rainwater drainage systems are installed in accordance with the type in each of our projects by our company experts. This is one of the most important nuances for us. | mechanical_engineering |

Patent law in China provides protection to inventions, utility models, and industrial designs. Specifically, an industrial design patent covers “new designs of the shape, pattern, or the combination thereof, or the combination of the color with shape and pattern with respect to a product, which are rich in an aesthetic appeal and are fit for industrial application”, according to the Patent Law of China.
A China industrial design patent right owner is entitled to manufacture, sell, and import the product that is under the protection of the industrial design patent right. Use of the registered design is prohibited without permission from the patent owner. According to the Patent Law of China, the duration of the industrial design patent right shall be 15 years.
Moreover, the China Intellectual Property Administration (CNIPA) is currently negotiating to join the Hague Agreement. The agreement provides a simpler application process and lower application fees. Under the Hague Agreement, the applicant can also file for the industrial design patent right protections of multiple countries, generally the Hague Agreement member countries, merely by submitting one application.
Note that within the three types of patent rights (invention patents, utility model patents, and industrial design patents), a single invention can only be granted with one patent right, under the Patent Law of China.

A ClimaRad heat recovery unit provides the supply and removal of ventilation air in each room. ClimaRad stands for energy-efficient ventilation, without the nuisance of outside noise. In contrast to the natural way of ventilation, a ClimaRad unit pre-heats the supplied air.
This heat recovery unit provides a healthy indoor climate in an energy-efficient way. When using the ClimaRad decentralised ventilation system, incoming air is, in contrast to natural ventilation, preheated by a heat recovery unit. The ClimaRad ventilation units have built-in sensors for air quality (CO2), humidity, and indoor and outdoor temperatures. This allows for automatic control and the user is not required to regulate the ventilation. In the ClimaRad Comfort Solution, all accommodation areas are equipped with a heat recovery unit.
* A decentralised ventilation system controls the indoor climate per room. Read more about decentralised ventilation on our website.
Advantages of ClimaRad Comfort
This ClimaRad Solution enables the ventilation of a house directly through the façade.
As a result, there is no need for complex air ducts. The built-in sensors of the ClimaRad heat recovery units take automatic measurements based on CO2, humidity, and indoor and outdoor temperatures. In this way, the system determines how much fresh air needs to be supplied and preheated.
The ClimaRad Fan, ClimaRad MiniBox or ClimaRad MaxiBox units provide a good indoor air quality in so-called ‘wet’ rooms. These products are automatically controlled based on the air humidity and presence of people in the room.
A perfect total solution for every sector
Good to know about ClimaRad Comfort
- The various ClimaRad Comfort Solution units communicate wirelessly with each other.
Also view our ClimaRad Smart solutions
ClimaRad Smart Supply
With the ClimaRad Smart Supply Solution, the living room in (care) homes is ventilated by a decentralised ventilation unit that supplies clean air (preheated by the heat recovery unit) and removes polluted air.
Ventilation of the bedrooms takes place via ClimaRad S-Fans. These fans provide a comfortable air supply in the bedrooms, which in combination with the heat recovery unit and extraction in the entire house provide a healthy indoor climate.
ClimaRad Smart +
The ClimaRad Smart+ Solution means that the basic Smart Solution is expanded by means of one or more wireless CO2 sensors in the bedrooms.
A distinction is made between ground-based (GG) dwellings, where CO2 sensors are placed in all bedrooms, and non-ground-based (NGG) dwellings, where a CO2 sensor is placed only in the master bedroom.
This variant yields improved EPA/EPC scores, for which the new declarations will soon be included in the Bureau CRG database. | mechanical_engineering |

You can choose a 90KW 120HP screw air compressor. Its airflow is 15.7m³/min 0.8MPa.
And about the refrigerated air dryer, you can choose our model LY-D120AH.
In addition, if you also need the filters and tanks for the PSA nitrogen gas plant, we also provide them.
How Does PSA N2 Generator Work?
The working principle of on site nitrogen generator is PSA. It is namely pressure swing adsorption. It’s similar to the working principle of a desiccant air dryer. N2 onsite also contains 2 adsorption towers. The vessels are filled with carbon molecular sieves. It is a special adsorbent for oxygen adsorption. The two pressure vessels switch in turn to adsorb oxygen molecules.
For example, compressed air enters one of the towers (adsorption tower A). In tower A, the carbon molecular sieve adsorbs the oxygen. At the same time, nitrogen gas is collected through the vessel. While the pressure vessel is adsorbing oxygen, the other tower (Tower B) is undergoing desorption action. It uses a small amount of nitrogen. Vent the oxygen molecules from the carbon molecular sieve to the atmosphere. The twin towers switch automatically and interactively to maintain the purity through a PLC controller.
Q1: Can your factory also produce high purity P n2 generators, such as 99.99%, 99.995%, and 99.999%?
A1: Yes. We also manufacture these high-purity nitrogen generators.
Q2: What about the regeneration gas consumption of your on site nitrogen generator?
A2: The average regeneration gas consumption is less than 5%.
Q3: What’s your n2 generator price?
A3: Welcome to contact us by email or WhatsApp! We can send you a quotation quickly.
Q4: How long to replace the carbon molecular sieve for the n2 generator system?
A4: Usually the lifetime of a carbon molecular sieve can last for 4~5 years. Of course, we must do the PSA nitrogen generator maintenance work well.
Q5: Can you also supply the air compressor and dryer?
A5: Sure. Our company provides the complete solution for your PSA nitrogen gas plant.
Q6: What’s the lead time of your on site nitrogen generator?
A5: The production time of our PSA n2 generator is 30~40 days. | mechanical_engineering |

Anyone who has been in the Library the past few years knows how antiquated our system is. (See note for how complicated our system really is.) It is rarely comfortable in the Library, and we have even been forced to close on occasion. The City of Natchez owns the building, and their staff has done an admirable job of keeping the system functioning. However, the system needed to be totally upgraded, and the City simply did not have the funds available. Our only hope has been to find a grant. We would like to thank Southwest Mississippi Planning and Development, who were instrumental in obtaining these funds for us, and Adams County, who allowed the grant to be written in their name.
We'll keep you updated on the progress here. Right now, all we know is that we've been awarded the grant. You might want to read the article in the Natchez Democrat.
UPDATE November 2011
Metro Mechanical of Bolton MS was the low bidder. A contract with them has been signed, the parts have been ordered, and work should begin some time this month. It is not anticipated that the Library will need to be closed during construction.
Unfortunately, we did not have sufficient notice that we were eligible for the grant in order to properly estimate the cost of the repairs/replacement of the entire system. The grant award, as it turned out, would only cover the internal repairs. This meant the outside chiller unit could not be addressed. After much discussion, we realized we also needed to focus our attention on the chiller unit, as the best internal system could not work without cool air (especially in Natchez in the summer, as we have all found out!).
The contractor estimated the additional cost, and the Library Board asked the City of Natchez and Adams County to fund this part of the project, and they agreed to do so. Remember that the original grant did not require any matching funds, so this was all they had to pay.
So at this time, we are just waiting for the work to begin. Hopefully, we will begin the new year with a renovated and functioning HVAC system.
UPDATE July 2012
Everything is now complete!
Unfortunately, the library’s HVAC system is very complicated. It was designed to produce both heated and chilled air 24/7 in order to achieve a comfortable mix. The air handler in the attic has two different sets of ducts – one set for heated air and one set for chilled air, going to “mixing boxes” throughout the building. Each room has at least one of these mixing boxes, and some larger areas have several. Each mixing box has both heated air and chilled air ducts coming into I, and is attached to a thermostat, which SHOULD control how much heated or chilled air is allowed into the mixing box to be dispersed into the room.
The library has twenty-seven mixing boxes throughout the building – with twenty-seven thermostats, NONE OF WHICH WORK. So, basically we have no control over whether we have heated or chilled air – when both the inside and outside units are running. And BTW – the controls are inside, as is the furnace – but the chilled air part of the equation is the chilling unit, which is outside. | mechanical_engineering |

The plant is to run for up to 30 years under the existing contract with the possibility of running for another 30 years under a re-let contract. It will be powered by 150,000 tonnes of Municipal Solid Waste per year produced by Lincolnshire’s residents and offers the prospect of cheap energy available to industry in the form of heat and electricity.
The heat energy is available in the form of hot water through a piped connection. This system can be converted and used to provide a cooling network (e.g. useful for indoor ski slopes / data centres).
The electricity is available either by private wire connection or through a 3rd party energy supplier contract (i.e. electricity supplied via national grid but at reduced rates). | mechanical_engineering |

Our automobiles produce emissions that are harmful to both humans and the environment. An automobile engine is powered by burning a mixture of air and gasoline. When this mixture burns, combustion by-products, including nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide, and hydrocarbons, are produced. These gases pass from the engine to the car’s exhaust system and into the atmosphere via the car’s tailpipe.
Nitrogen oxides and hydrocarbons are responsible for smog. Nitrogen oxides also contribute to acid rain. Carbon monoxide is dangerous for people with heart disease because it affects the body’s ability to carry oxygen.
In the U.S., tailpipe emissions have been reduced by the installation of catalytic converters. Catalytic converters were first introduced in automobiles in 1975, and they are now also regularly used in trucks, buses, trains, mining equipment, forklifts, and generators.
Catalytic converters work by converting the tailpipe pollutants into less harmful chemicals. They require platinum, palladium, and rhodium as catalysts. Platinum and rhodium are used to reduce nitrogen oxides to nitrogen and oxygen. Platinum and palladium are used to oxidize carbon monoxide and carcinogenic hydrocarbons to a less harmful greenhouse gas (CO2) and water.
Although catalytic converters have been beneficial for the environment, they are not a complete panacea. They have reduced smog and other toxic emissions, but they require engines to run at less than optimal fuel efficiencies. As a result, more fuel is consumed and more emissions are released. They also contribute to the greenhouse effect by releasing nitrous oxide into the atmosphere.

A jet of air blown across a sharp edge produces an edgetone, a clear single frequency tone, in addition to a certain amount of noise. The frequency of the tone depends on the speed of the jet of air and on the distance between the jet and the edge approximately as .
Organ flue pipes, flutes, whistles, and recorders all operate by coupling a jet of air flowing over and edge to a resonator. In this case the frequency of oscillation is controlled by the transit time for a pressure pulse to go down the tube and back and so by the length of the tube. The air jet is forced into and out of the pipe by the resonance and the instrument sounds at a resonant frequency of the pipe, usually very much lower than the edge tone.
Drilling holes in the side of a blown pipe allows the effective length of the pipe to be shortened. A pipe with a hole in it will sound the same note as an entire pipe a little longer than the distance from the fixed end of the pipe to the hole. The sound wave continues some way past the hole. The bigger the hole is, the higher the note, the lounder the sound, and the less high frequency content the sound has. | mechanical_engineering |

An extended business component of Hexagon, Leica Geosystems, announced that they have effectively started launching the latest Leica iCON site excavator. The system revolves around the control factor through a guidance system that increases the accuracy of compact excavator performance.
The fact that mini excavators or compact excavators are generally used to perform task at environments that have very limited space, it becomes imperative that these machine perform optimally in order to ensure project success.
Leica examined this issue closely and came up with the perfect machine control solution that enhances the accuracy of these machines when they are required to trench, grade or move materials about on a much smaller scale.
The iCON site system for mini excavators offers task oriented solutions via three new components composed of software, a dual GNSS receiver and a communication device that is optional. The iCON site excavator system is capable of performing as a stand-alone unit or optionally it may be added unto existing iCON site platforms. It is optimised greatly when added on to existing systems as it allows workflow structures for both on and off machine tasks which will empower project crews to perform numerous tasks using the same tools.
Operators are now able to scan surfaces using the Smart Antenna control unit and establish a design after which he or she is able to mount and commence the grading or trenching according to the pre conceived design. After this is completed the will use the system again to examine the work, check the machine status or immediately move to the next work design seamlessly.
The iCON unique platform ensures resources are used efficiently and this includes personnel deployment. According to the president of Leica Geosystems Magnus Thibbin, with this system, compact and medium range excavators become more versatile and these machines would be able to contribute much more than do now even for large projects. In essence, it’s a step forward towards achieving total machine autonomy.
Komatsu’s Hands on Store for PC01E-1
Other developments that are notable includes Komatsu hands-on store for the astonishing electric micro excavator the PC01E-1 in Japan. The leading industry manufacturer of a range of heavy equipment announced that the showcase held for their electric micro-excavator at Kaze AEON Lake town was a success.
The micro excavator was the result of collaboration between two industry giants, Komatsu and Honda. The machine has been received well by the heavy machinery and excavator rental markets and has been proven to be very effective for the niche ‘home improvement and small projects’ niche. The machine is fully electric and some of the more admirable aspects of the machine include long lasting battery life, quick charge and battery replacement which has been made exceedingly easy by the manufacturer.
The machine could be easily and rapidly charged with household power points or 100 w power supply units. The engine is also exceedingly quiet given the power it delivers for such a small sized machine. The machine is capable of performing almost all tasks that its larger counterparts are able to perform but only on a much smaller scale.
Other features that have made this little giant a success includes the fact that the PC01E is easy to maintain and does not require excessive attention and refuelling unlike the fossil fuel powered excavator alternatives. The electric machine comes highly recommended by general contractors due to the practical advantages that the PC01E offers in urbanised environments where space is a big problem. The miniature excavators work performance has been given a full 5 star rating by those who attended the showcase and tried the machine on their own. | mechanical_engineering |

Mechanical noise may improve somatosensation at the dorsal side of the foot, but the effect at the plantar side of the foot, the side most at risk for foot ulceration, is unknown. Moreover, techniques used in research so far have several problems that limit applicability in daily practice. Piezoelectric actuators may provide mechanical noise with better clinical applicability. We assessed the effects of piezoelectric actuators generating mechanical noise on the vibration perception threshold (VPT) at the plantar side of the foot in people with diabetic neuropathy.
Double-blind within-subjects design in a controlled laboratory setting including participants with diabetic neuropathy (N = 40; 18 male; mean age 69.6 years; mean duration of diabetes 14.1 years; mean BMI 30.5). VPT was measured at three plantar foot locations with and without mechanical noise applied via piezoelectric actuators.
Mechanical noise improved VPT at metatarsophalangeal joint (MTP) 1 (left 39.3V vs 43.5V; right 39.0 vs 42.6 V), MTP5 (left 37.5V vs 41.7V; right 34.5V vs 40.8V) and the heel (left 40.0V vs 44.0V; right 39.3V vs 41.0V), all P < .001.
Mechanical noise improves VPT at the plantar side of the foot in people with diabetic neuropathy. This is an important step for further development of insoles using mechanical noise that may have the potential to improve VPT and decrease the risk of foot ulceration. | mechanical_engineering |

As opposed to “Hydro-Foam™ Technology” which is used in union with master stream nozzles, these “Venturi-Type” foam proportioners are designed to be used in conjunction with a matched constant flow end-of-line device (e.g., nozzle), where adequate water pressure is available. The pressurized water stream creates a vacuum (the Venturi effect) which is used to suck foam concentrate into the eductor body. The dosing of the concentrate is controlled by either an orifice plate or a metering valve. The concentrate enters and mixes with the water stream. The foam solution exits through the outlet of the inductor.
Ratio Controllers are modified venturi foam proportioners that accurately meter pressurized foam concentrate into the firefighting water stream. These foam proportioners are used in conjunction with balanced pressure systems, such as bladder tanks and pumped proportioning skids. In operation, firefighting water flows through the modified venturi, creating an area of lower pressure, which is referred to as the “metering pressure drop”. This metering pressure drop is directly affected by the firefighting water velocity as it flows through the venturi. The (1%, 3% or 6%) concentrate-to-water ratio is maintained over the entire flow range of each size ratio controller. However, each size ratio controller has a minimum flow rate/velocity requirement, and these minimums must be maintained for proper ratio controller operation. Available in three styles and various sizes, each Ratio Controller consists of the following components: body; metering orifice; inlet nozzle. These components are constructed of ASTM 85-5-5-5 bronze. The inlet nozzle is tapered and machined to a smooth finish to maximize water stream efficiency through the venturi. The foam concentrate metering orifice is sized to the exact type and percentage of foam concentrate to be used. Both the inlet nozzle and metering orifice are secured by a stainless steel retaining ring.

Dell Ventures accelerated the production of this multi-tier, industrial-grade edge-to-cloud-to-edge solution by leading Noodle.ai’s $35 million Series B round last year, joined by previous investor TPG Growth.
Until now, Industry 4.0 was no more than a buzzword for companies in the manufacturing and supply chain industries. No other end-to-end solution offered every necessary piece of technology that would allow companies to realize the promised economic and financial benefits. By partnering with Dell’s OEM group, Noodle.ai is able to deliver the first edge-to-cloud-to-edge, full-stack Enterprise AI® platform for supply chain and manufacturing operations.
Since its inception, Noodle.ai has worked to bring Industry 4.0 to life and help manufacturing and supply chain businesses transform their operations to reduce waste, material defects, and the overall energy required to create products, solve predictive challenges and keep business moving forward.
Noodle.ai’s suite of applications ensure that its customers are able to anticipate and plan for key variables affecting business operations, including product quality, maintenance, downtime, costs, inventory and flow. This mitigates issues before they happen and eliminates pockets of waste and inefficiencies that accumulate across supply chain functions. Its applications can predict potentially costly product quality issues and equipment failures and identify patterns in complex combinations and production variations to increase flow and profits.
In manufacturing, a tremendous amount of raw data is collected every day but isn’t utilized effectively. Data was traditionally collected for humans to analyze, through records of events and dashboards, but it is an unmanageable task for humans to sift through such a massive amount of data to uncover trends and quickly develop accurate predictions. To pinpoint issues and make informed predictions faster, this new platform ensures that data is optimally collected and processed for artificial intelligence to work at the speed that Industry 4.0 requires.
“Working alongside our partners at Dell allowed us to create a powerful platform that can address the unique challenges that occur in the manufacturing space, especially around monetary and environmental waste,” said Ted Gaubert, CTO, Noodle.ai. “We measure success internally with reduced CO2 and radical efficiency as part of our not-so-secret plan to save the planet, and we are proud to bring not only those benefits to the manufacturing space, but also deliver cost and time savings by empowering Industry 4.0.”

The definition of passive design is the design of a building taking into consideration all aspects of the climate and the environment to either heat up or cool down the occupants (to achieve thermal comfort)through natural means and not artificially to conserve energy used. The purpose of passive design is to minimize the energy consumption and to improve the thermal comfort. There are several principles that we should consider in order to produce a passive building design such as the orientation, materials, insulation, thermal mass, ventilation, and shading. To implement the passive design approach we should first understand the criteria of thermal comfort, analyse the local climate, and establish measurable energy performance targets.
What are the principles of passive design and how to apply it?
1) Location, orientation and layout
The location and orientation of the house can affect the ability to receive solar radiation and to encourage the interior air movement. In order to receive optimum solar radiation and sufficient interior air movement, the floor plan of a house for hot and humid climate usually provide spread-out floor plans and permeable internal organization.
2) Material and colour
In hot and humid climate, materials for building envelope and surrounding surfaces should help minimise heat gains into the building or a house. Survey shows that many traditional houses in hot and humid climates use lightweight materials such as wooden walls and woven bamboo flooring. It different with current situation in which modern materials is used such as plasterboard, and lightweight concrete blocks.
Insulation is a product that blocks the transfer of heat. It acts as a barrier to heat flow and help in keeping the house maintain comfortable for the interior spaces. Heat flows naturally from warmer to cooler space. Other than that, it also help to control any form of sound transmission. Usually insulation is needed in the ceiling, walls, and floor. The most appropriate time to install the insulation is during the construction.
4) Thermal mass
Thermal mass can be defined as a material that have the capacity to store thermal energy for an extended periods. Usually the properties of thermal mass materials are high in density, good thermal conductivity and low reflectivity. Materials used are usually concrete bricks, sandstones, water, and stones.
The ventilation should be designed to achieved sufficient air flow rates. The higher the temperature and the humidity,the more air is needed to achieve thermal comfort. When designing a natural ventilation system, the long facade of the building should be facing the prevailing wind direction, with doors and opening windows providing the ventilation openings. Adequate ventilation may ensure that the indoor temperature does not become higher than the outdoor.
The purpose of shading is to control intense direct sunlight to ensure a comfortable for the interior space and at the same time minimizing the mechanical cooling loads. Shading should be designed to take into account the sun's path during the day.
Why passive design is important in Islam?
1) “La darar wala dirar fil Islam”.
This Hadeeth is present in the 40 Ahadeeth of Imam Nawawi (RA), Hadeeth number 32 : On the authority of Saad bin Malik Al-Khudar (RA), that the messenger of Allah (Rasulullah saw) said : "There should be neither harming nor reciprocating harm." (Related by Ibn Majah, Al-Daraqutni and others) .
From this hadeeth, it shows that in Islam we are not allowed to create something that can harm the our surrounding. In other words, passive design is important to make sure that the built environment process does not harm the natural surroundings.
2) Surah al-Ahzab verse 72
“Indeed, we offered the Trust to the heavens and the earth and the mountains, and they declined to bear it and feared it; but man [undertook to] bear it. Indeed, he was unjust and ignorant.”
From this quranic verse it proves that Allah has offered human being ‘amanah’ to be a khalifah on earth. So that, it is human being responsibility of putting into application the divine laws on earth in order to keep the earth well balanced.
3) Surah Ibrahim verse 33-34
“And He subjected for you the sun and the moon, continuous [in orbit], and subjected for you the night and the day. And He gave you from all you asked of Him. And if you should count the favour of Allah , you could not enumerate them. Indeed, mankind is [generally] most unjust and ungrateful.”
It shows that, it is important to being grateful for the present of the earth means to take care of it, that is to use it in a sustainable manners.
4) Surah al-Rum verse 41
“Mischief has appeared on land and sea because of (the need) that the hand of men have earned, that (Allah) may give them a taste of some of their deeds: in order that may turn back (from evil).”
All things have been created in a due proportion and measure (carefully balanced). Once the balance is disturbed, we should expect the worst, such as global warming and other kind of environmental destructions. | mechanical_engineering |

Pfaff Harley-Davidson develops Tough Turban prototype, a new protective innovation for motorcyclists
Zulu Alpha Kilo releases opensource design plans
June 16, 2021 06:00 ET | Source: Zulu Alpha Kilo
TORONTO, June 16, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Freedom – freedom to ride – is at the heart of a new innovation championed today by Pfaff Harley-Davidson. The Tough Turban was conceived and designed by Toronto’s Zulu Alpha Kilo, the dealership’s innovative creative partner, which developed this advancement using impact-resistant materials to better protect motorcycle enthusiasts.
“Pfaff Harley-Davidson is proud to help champion an idea that celebrates the diversity of our ridership. We are honoured to help advance the cause of diverse gear and to help build awareness for the potential of the innovation amongst our vast community of riders across Canada and around the world,” explains Brandon Durmann, Brand Marketing Specialist at Pfaff Harley-Davidson.
Since 1903, Harley-Davidson has helped shape the identity of millions of motorcyclists worldwide and represents a lifestyle and an emotional attachment. Harley-Davidson appeals to a growing community of riders, including those riders who wish to try an alternate form of head cover, other than the helmet.
“The Tough Turban further empowers Sikh riders to protect who they are,” shares Zak Mroueh, Founder and Chief Creative Officer of Zulu. “This initiative combines a lot of things we’re glad to focus on at Zulu Alpha Kilo – inclusion, innovation and our core principle that the world needs more creativity. I’m always thrilled when a team member crafts an idea inspired by their own heritage or personal experience. In this case, the idea came the team of Dan Cummings and Vic Bath, who is from a Sikh background. He was inspired by his father, who grew up in a small village in India and dreamed of owning a Harley-Davidson, which to him was the ultimate symbol of freedom.”
To bring the idea to life, Zulu tapped Spark Innovations for the preliminary design of the Tough Turban. It features emerging technologies in protective gear like non-Newtonian foam that hardens on impact, 3D-printed chainmail and a composite fabric used in bullet-proof clothing. The full design considerations for the prototype have been open-sourced and released online, enabling any manufacturer in the world access to the virtual blueprint to make their version of a reinforced turban for riders in their region. Details are available on a specially created mini-site to support the Tough Turban concept at: ToughTurban.com
“We welcomed the opportunity to share our experience in the creation of protective gear to develop a turban application,” says Chris Pearen, Design Director at Spark Innovations. “Working with a Sikh consultant, we learned about the warrior culture and created a chainmail-like matrix that could be incorporated into the traditional feeling of a turban. Just seeing how engaged the riders are with the prototype is certainly inspiring!”
COLLABORATION WITH THE SIKH MOTORCYCLE CLUB OF ONTARIO
Pfaff Harley-Davidson and Zulu Alpha Kilo recognize that the Tough Turban is still in the early stages of development, which is why they have partnered with the Sikh Motorcycle Club of Ontario to test and improve upon design elements.
Inclusivity for all Sikh riders has yet to be achieved across Canada. Helmet exemptions were first granted to turban-wearing riders in British Columbia and Manitoba in 1999. Close to 20 years later, in the fall of 2018, Ontario passed Bill 194, exempting Sikh motorcyclists from Ontario’s helmet laws. However, all other provinces in the country have failed to adopt similar legislation.
“Our members want the freedom to be able to ride from coast-to-coast-to-coast while wearing turbans,” says Jagdeep Singh, a spokesperson for the Sikh Motorcycle Club of Ontario. “We welcome the freedom to ride message that the Tough Turban touts, however for now, it strictly remains a concept. The idea needs to be developed further and tested for practical daily wear.”
“In the meantime, Sikhs should have the same freedoms to ride in Saskatchewan, Quebec and the eastern provinces. We appreciate the support to fight for these more inclusive rights and the ability to broaden the benefits that come from charitable rides led by our club.”
The Sikh Motorcycle Club considers motorcycling to be both a hobby and a means of having positive impact. In the onset of COVID-19 last year, the Ontario chapter alone conducted nine motorcycle rides to 35 distinct first responder sites to recognize the efforts of frontline workers. The club also distributed thousands of meals to vulnerable families impacted by the pandemic and held protests in support of farmer rights in India. In the past, the club has also held rides to fight cancer, as well as support people with diabetes and substance abuse challenges.
Concerns about safety are most commonly cited in discussions about helmet exemptions, but 22 years of riding with turbans have yielded precisely zero fatalities among Canadian Sikh motorcyclists.

Configuration: Vertical Axis (VAWT)
Nominal Turbine Speed: 30RPM
Rated Voltage: 440VAC
Rated power output: 1.2 MW/day
Protection Devices: Fuse
Design Life Span: 15-20 Years
Operating Temperature: -20°C to 60° C
Wing Height: 5.1m
Base Height: 2m
Weight: 2.5 Tonne
Materials: Epoxy coated sails
Start up Speed: 1.5 m/s

The Huia 1 is a commercially viable vertical axis turbine that does not rely on high wind shear but rather air pressure as with a yacht’s sail. The total area of the wings is 55m2, which for the first time, can seriously compete with horizontal axis turbines.
The Huia 1 entry level turbine brings a sobering level of simplicity to wind power generation.
The parabolic curve of the wings plus their height and width determines the square metre area used in the calculations. Each Huia 1 comprises 2 permanent magnet generators so that from the first rotation there is power being generated. As the torque increases, 2nd generator engages until 7m/s wind speed is reached, peaking at 1MW output per day.
MPU wind turbines complies with all the principles of an alternative energy source and is therefore a prime candidate for consideration within and beyond the current market.
MPU wind turbines presents itself at a very opportune point in time with the continued decline of ‘first generation’ wind turbines and associated gains of global government subsidies.
Finally, there is a huge discrepancy in capital costs between the Huia 1 and horizontal axis turbines as well as the fact that MPU wind turbines can be operated as ‘portable/mobile’ units.
MPU Wind Turbines
- Innovative ‘sail-wing’ technology
- Exceptionally low cost and installation
- Wind pressure and not wind speed reliant
- Significant environmental benefits
- Price accessible to all economies
- Considerable societal benefit
- Highly attractive alternative to conventional horizontal wind turbines.
It is the intention of the Company to manufacture in Ruakaka, New Zealand and supply Platinum Power to where discussions have taken place.
The calculations for the Huia 1 power generation plant is based on an average of 7m/sec which will deliver up to 50 KW/hr, which can be stored or sent to grid.
The Huia 1 is capable of displacing greenhouse gas emissions equivalent to 300 acres of forest each year.
MPU wind turbines rely on it’s unique combined ‘racing sail’ and ‘aerofoil’ design to deliver the highest torque per square millimetre generator. The PMG motors incorporated is based on the standard torque/joule equation as per any and all PMG motor principles.
The overall design of MPU wind turbines is not just unique but packaged to encourage an engaging, positive and pleasing public response. It certainly has the “wow” factor and will readily be publically accepted as there is no “threatening” aspects to the design nor function.
Because of their multi-directional capabilities, MPU wind turbines are able to convert more wind into power for greater efficiency and better power output. The spring-loaded lower thrust bearing also works well in blustery conditions.
Unlike horizontal axis turbines, MPU wind turbines function properly regardless of wind direction. MPU wind turbines are ideal for locations where wind direction changes regularly as is experienced in New Zealand.
Lower Wind Speeds
Horizontal axis turbines need large and heavy rotors to produce substantial quantities of power, and because of this the wind speed needed to keep them moving is high. Areas with low wind speed are suitable for MPU wind turbines and they can produce more power from the lower wind speed areas.
Noise and Vibration
There is no getting around the fact that horizontal axis turbines are noisy when they are in full flight. MPU wind turbines do not suffer from this and the Huia 1 quietness means it is more suitable for ‘suburban’ installations. Even in gale force winds, MPU wind turbines are almost soundless with no visible vibrations due to the sprung lower thrust bearing taking gust impact.
Specific Sail Design
The following diagram illustrates the difference in air pressure:
The wind’s law of the 2nd power:
The pressure that the wind exerts on the sail depends on the 2nd power of the wind speed. Double the wind speed from say 5 knots to 10 knots, and the pressure (force) on the sails is quadrupled. Increase the wind from 5 to 15 knots and the pressure is nine times bigger.
Horizontal axis wind turbine blades are designed to capture the kinetic energy from high wind speeds, whereas a low to mild wind blowing over a sail causes a difference in air pressure (x 9) that provides the lateral thrust propulsion.
Aerodynamics and Thrust
The aerodynamics is achieved with the same ‘cut’ as a racing sail but where the inside area is convex and the outer concave thus allowing for the optimum under-camber on the thrust face and maximum angle of attack or tilting of the leading edge of the sail (inclination). The airfoil effect has good depth thus allowing for maximum lift (sideways) of the sail through its lateral axis.
Aerodynamics for lateral thrust generation:
In ‘basic forces’ modules it is stated that when an aircraft is moving through the air, (In this case, the MPU sail wings) the consequent pressure changes or the aerodynamic reactions to its motion are acting at every location on its surface.
Formula for calculation of lift from the wing:
Lift [ newtons] = CL × ½rV² × S
Substitute symbol ‘Q’ to represent dynamic pressure [½rV²] therefore
Lift [newtons] = CL × Q × S
where Q × S is the force.
The formula is an approximation of the lateral thrust from the wing design. At any one time, the aerodynamic reaction will vary over the span of the wing but the optimum under-camber on the thrust face and maximum angle of attack or tilting of the leading edge of the sail (inclination) works exceptionally well in tandem with the racing sail design. | mechanical_engineering |

1.ISO 4033 - 1999 Hexagon nuts
2.ANSI/ASME B 18.2.2 - 1987 (R1999) Heavy Hex Nuts
3.What is the difference between hex and heavy hex jam nuts?
A jam nut is a thin nut primarily used as a locking device, run up
against a full-height nut that has been tightened into place to
prevent that primary nut from loosening. Jam nuts are not used as
structural parts and are commonly not manufactured to meet any
specific nut specification since their primary function is to
prevent the larger nut from backing off the threads. They are also
occasionally used for leveling purposes.
Hex vs. Heavy Hex
The two styles available for a jam nut are hex and heavy hex
patterns. The biggest difference between these two is sizing. The
heavy hex pattern has a larger width across the flats and corners
and is slightly thicker in comparison to the smaller hex pattern.
Due to its larger pattern, the heavy hex jam nut is likely to have
a higher proof load in comparison to its standard hex pattern
counterpart. However, because these nuts are typically non-graded,
there are not any strength comparisons available between the two.
Imported hex and heavy hex jam nuts are readily available in plain
finish and hot-dip galvanized conditions. Imported stainless steel
hex jam nuts are also available. These nuts are not graded in any
way as mentioned above and do not come with any form of
certification documents. For graded and/or domestic jam nut
requirements they can be custom manufactured.
4.What is the difference between a standard hex nut and a heavy hex
A standard hex nut, also referred to as a finished hex nut, has a
smaller width across the flats and corners compared to a heavy hex
nut, and a heavy hex nut is slightly thicker than a standard hex
nut of the same nominal size.
In fact, heavy hex nuts are exactly a 1/8” larger across the flats
than a standard hex nut in all sizes, requiring a 1/8” larger
socket or wrench to install. Also, heavy hex nuts have a higher
proof load strength compared to a hex nut according to ASTM A563.

As one of the largest recyclers of aluminium extrusion in the UK, we’re exhibiting at the FIT Show, the UK’s biggest and best trade show for the fenestration industry.
We’ll be showcasing our pre- and post-consumer aluminium window and door scrap recycling processes at this year’s event, which is taking place at the NEC in Birmingham from May 10 to 12.
Unfortunately, last year’s FIT Show was cancelled due to COVID-19, but we’re hoping this year’s exhibition will go ahead as planned, and we’ll be able to share our pioneering closed loop recycling system with the 200+ anticipated visitors.
“We’ve been processing thermally broken extrusion for the last ten years, using an approach that we’re continuously reviewing and refining and is unrivalled within our industry,” explains Ed George, our Commercial Manager.
“Our thermally broken extrusion capabilities are particularly significant for the fenestration industry because it means aluminium can be kept in the UK. Material is supplied to UK remelts which, in turn, means UK extruders can be produced and supplied. All in all, this forms a robust UK closed loop aluminium recycling programme that enables us to save 95% of the original energy used to mine and refine.”
The closed loop system, which took us six years to develop and perfect, enables us to effectively separate the thermal barrier from extrusions to produce a 95 to 97% clean aluminium product. The extrusion and thermal strip are fractured away from one another and then overlaid with a mechanical solution. It’s so effective, we can sort up to 6 tonnes per hour.
Case in point
We were approached by one of our customers, Origin Global, to improve their carbon footprint. We started by switching their daily scrap collections to fortnightly collections. This change alone reduced their journeys and emissions from transporting materials.
Thanks to our closed loop recycling process, we were then able to pass on 88% of their extrusion to remelting companies. The remaining 12%, which was packaging waste and thermal barrier, was sent for further recycling.
Samantha Wright, Environmental Officer at Origin Global, said: “Alutrade is a supplier we can rely on and trust, and we’re consistently impressed by their high quality service. By working with them, we are confident that our scrap is 100% recycled and supporting the circular economy. The team are always very helpful, friendly, and quick to respond to our queries.”
For more insight on how we helped Origin Global significantly improve their scrap recycling rates, read the full case study.

Why I Used a Panel Interlock Rather than a Transfer Switch for the Backup Generator
The question that came up most often was why I chose to use a panel interlock rather than a generator transfer switch to isolate the standby generator from the power grid. You have to use one or the other to avoid your generator energizing the grid and possibly electrocuting a lineman.
The first thing I should mention is that although they meet NEC requirements, not all local jurisdictions allow panel interlocks. Some localities require that you use a transfer switch. If that’s the case in your jurisdiction, then the decision has been made for you.
In my jurisdiction, however, panel interlocks are acceptable as long as they’re UL-listed. Some local codes also require that they be manufactured by the same company that made the panel. I chose to use an interlock that was both UL-listed and made by my panel’s manufacturer. Inspectors have been known to make up rules on-the-spot, so I figured I might as well head off that possibility right from the start.
The main reasons I chose the panel interlock were simplicity and cost. Using a generator transfer switch would have cost between $400.00 and $800.00 more by the time all was said and done. It also would have taken between five and eight hours longer to install. When installing a transfer switch, you have to wire each standby breaker in the transfer switch to the corresponding circuits in the panel, which takes much longer than simply wiring the one standby generator breaker and installing the interlock itself.
The other reason I chose the panel interlock is because it allows me to use the main panel to decide which circuits get current while being powered by the generator, rather than being limited by the number of breakers in the transfer switch. Most 50-amp transfer switches are limited to ten circuits. I wanted to be able to choose to power any of the circuits in my house up to the generator’s rated output (though obviously not at the same time).
By using the interlock switch, I could, for example, choose to power my electric clothes dryer if I absolutely needed to dry laundry for some reason. All I’d have to do would be shut off some of the other high-draw circuit breakers that might automatically kick in while drying the clothes (freezers, well pump, and so forth), and simply not use other high-draw items like the electric range, dishwasher, and air-conditioner while the clothes were drying. Or I could shut those breakers off, too, if I wanted to be certain that neither I nor anyone else absentmindedly turned them on while the clothes were drying.
Finally, the generator itself is breaker-protected (in addition to the new backfeed breaker I installed in the panel) and all the wiring exceeds the breaker capacities. So even if I did inadvertently overload the generator, the worst thing that would happen is that I’d pop a breaker. That would be a bother, but not a tragedy.
Another question I had to answer was:
Can Any Circuit Breaker Be Used as a Generator Backfeed Breaker?
That answer turned out to be no. Most circuit breakers don’t care in which “direction” the current flows, but some do. Grossly oversimplified, If the breaker terminals are labeled with markings such as “LINE” and “LOAD,” then it matters in which “direction” the current flows through the breaker. If not, then it probably doesn’t.
My breakers don’t have those markings, so I contacted the manufacturer and asked them if the circuit breaker I was considering could be used as a backfeed breaker. They said it could.
The other thing I had to do was choose the breaker appropriate for the circuit in terms of voltage and amperage. I’m using the 240V, 50-amp output on my generator, I wired my circuits to 50-amp standards, and my house has a Square D distribution panel and uses HOM breakers; so I needed a Square D 240V, 50-amp, 2-pole HOM breaker, in addition to the interlock kit.
If you have any doubts whatsoever about what you need, please consult a qualified electrician. This post is an explanation of what I did, not a tutorial about what you should do.
The next factor I had to work out was:
How to Determine What Wire to Use for a Backup Generator
In a nutshell, my choice of wire was determined by the National Electrical Code.
My locality doesn’t impose any additional requirements beyond the national code, so I looked up the wire gauge requirements on a wire gauge chart. Most companies that sell electrical wire have wire gauge charts somewhere on their sites. You can also look up wire gauge requirements directly in the NEC, which is what I did.
To determine the wire gauge requirements, I had to know the ampacity (maximum current in amps) of the circuit, which was 50 amps in my case; the type of conductor (I used copper); and the type of wire and insulation (I used NM or “Romex” from the panel to the junction box, and THWN-2 from the junction box to the inlet box). The runs were very short, so the length was negligible in my particular case.
I also knew that the portion of the wire that would run through the exterior conduit would have to be either UF or THWN-2 to meet the requirement that outdoor wire, even when in conduit, be rated for wet areas. THWN-2 is much easier to work with than UF and could be fed through a smaller conduit, so that’s what I chose for the outdoor run. Had I been burying the wire, I would have used UF (underground feeder) cable.
When all of those factors were considered, it turned out I needed AWG 6 wire for both the NM cable and the THWN-2 to meet the codes and to satisfy my personal safety margin requirements.
I also could have run the THWN-2 directly to the panel in conduit, but that would have been extra work for no benefit. Besides, I already had some 6-gauge NM cable in the basement.
How Did I Choose a Backup Generator?
I wanted a portable generator so I could use it for additional purposes other than powering the house during a power failure; but I wanted it to be powerful enough to meet all of the essential electrical needs of my home and have enough extra power to use at my discretion for things like making coffee, watching television, and so forth during outages. By adding up the power requirements of the essential and optional devices, I decided that I needed a generator with roughly 9,000 to 10,000 watts running capacity and about 12,000 watts starting capacity.
After months of research, I decided that the A-iPower SUA12000E Portable Generator had the best combination of cost, reputation, and positive reviews of all generators I researched in that power range. I also noticed that the manufacturer was active on the various review and question-and-answer boards I consulted. That’s always a nice thing because it suggests good product stewardship.
Why Did I Choose a Gasoline-Powered Generator?
The other factor influencing my decision was that most outages here don’t last more than a few hours, and the A-iPower SUA12000E can run about nine hours on a tank of gas; so I decided that the added work of piping a generator into the propane system wasn’t worth bothering with. If we frequently had longer outages, I would have considered a propane-powered generator.
There is an aftermarket natural gas / propane conversion kit available for the SUA12000E, but I haven’t installed it. Maybe I will when the warranty expires.
How Has the A-iPower SUA12000E Generator Worked Out as a Backup Generator?
As of this writing, I haven’t experienced any outages since installing the generator. But I’ve done several load tests, and it’s worked fine every time. So far, I’m happy with my choice. The first actual outage will be the real test. | mechanical_engineering |

This means that transits must be complemented with excellent product information to maximize the safety awareness in all stakeholders, from the client, the purchaser, through engineering management to those directly responsible for installing transits.
The installation of multi cable transits encompasses structural, electrical and mechanical disciplines. Furthermore, their safe installation and compliance with both regulations and manufacturers' recommended installation instructions requires the supervision of quality assurance and quality control personnel, and the final approval of a certifying authority. It is, therefore, essential that all parties are familiar with the expectations of the final signatory authority and are made aware, by the owners and management, of the importance of a well- installed product.
We must emphasize how important it is to install multi cable transits correctly the first time round. The costs of refitting, and at worst a failure, are far greater than those associated with a safe and timely first-time installation.
Given the importance of transit installations, it is the responsibility of the manufacturer to provide comprehensive support to all parties within the project. This support should include, but is not limited to, such items as certification and testing documentation as may be required; literature and software for efficient and accurate procurement of product; and a comprehensive training programme for installers, quality control personnel and regulatory inspectors.
We believe that not only should training be emphasised for new cable transit installers, but also for those installation teams already familiar with the product to be installed.
To realize this goal, it is essential that the client, construction company, contractor and manufacturer cooperate to ensure such information and initiatives are available and utilized.
Thorough training with cable and pipe transits – including cable management – is indispensable for achieving the high standard of safety needed when installing transits. On-the-job training is carried out in the normal work environment using actual transit components, tools and documents that are used in everyday work tasks.
Off-the-job training takes place away from the normal work environment, often on the premises of the transit manufacturer. Advantages of this type of training is that it allows trainees to concentrate totally on training activities without work production pressures, to train on a variety of transit types and applications, and to understand the theory and practice that lie behind transit design and installation.
Training should instill an awareness of safety regarding the use and installation of cable and pipe transits at all levels of a construction project. The relevant staff in design companies should know what types of transit are available and where they are best used. Shipbuilding or construction site managers should be trained in all aspects of transit design and installation so that they know how to train installers and how inspection routines are carried of effectively. And installers should be trained how to fit transit frames and blocks correctly to achieve tight systems of the highest standard.
Construction site management is strongly focused on obtaining a good return on investment for their company, something which staff training helps to realize. Trained employees understand the importance of their job, their role in an organization and how to carry out tasks accurately and efficiently. Training also contributes to high staff morale and job satisfaction.
All these factors enable construction personnel to perform high-quality work that not only puts safety first with cable and pipe transits, but also avoids the need for reworking along with consequent increased costs.
Cable and pipe transits must have features that make them safe in a variety of hazardous applications to protect people, environment – including intellectual property like computer data – and to help ensure the continued operations of a business or other organization.See more
The design, materials, construction and finish of frames play decisive roles in determining the safety of frames in withstanding constant stress in maritime and land-based environments.See more
Before working with insert blocks, cable management has to be carried out. Basically, this means that all cables passing through frames must have enough movement to allow them to be positioned correctly to facilitate fitting the insert blocks.See more
For first-rate insert blocks, a lot of thought and good science goes into what may at first seem a simple transit component. But the performance of blocks is a key element in assuring the safety of cable transits.See more
Testing for certification purposes is carried out in independent laboratories throughout the world. The Fire Test Procedure (FTP Codes) Standards, however, apply equally to all laboratories, no matter their location.See more | mechanical_engineering |

Radiant awarded Department of Energy GAIN program voucher for research into novel commercial reactor and fuel cycle concepts.
We’re proud to share that Radiant is partnering with the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory as part of a voucher program provided by the Gateway for Accelerated Innovation in Nuclear (GAIN) program of DOE’s Office of Nuclear Energy. With this partnership, the researchers at Argonne plan to help industry develop a range of new commercial reactor and fuel cycle concepts with the potential to go beyond today’s traditional large water-cooled reactors and address climate change.
Our team has already kicked off work with Argonne on numerical modeling of heat production and removal in our high-temperature gas-cooled microreactor. Argonne nuclear engineer April Novak, one of the laboratory’s Maria Goeppert Mayer fellows, will help our team create high-fidelity computational fluid dynamics models of the microreactor in shutdown conditions, including its passive heat removal systems. One of these heat removal systems is called an air jacket, which consists of a thin layer of ambient air in between the reactor and the shielding. Since microreactors uniquely benefit from passive cooling, the air jacket modeling work with Argonne will be truly novel and a critical requirement well ahead of any prototyping and testing.
Our team plans to be the first new commercial reactor design to achieve a fueled test in more than 50 years. But achieving full commercialization for advanced reactors will require widespread, ongoing partnership across the Department of Energy and several national labs like Argonne and Idaho National Lab. We’re thrilled about this award because it’s another key step in that direction.

We understand the concerns of customers regarding replacement components. Many medical facilities feel only Manufacture components can be used on their equipment. It is important to know that the OEM's generally do not manufacture their own components. They utilize independent machine shops and injection mold companies to make their parts. In order for that company to continue working with the OEM's, they must sign an agreement to not sell the components to any other entity. By that standard and the OEM's stance of not selling any components to Independent Service Organizations we do not have access to OEM replacement parts. In today's environment all parts are manufactured to OEM standards or better. Below you can see a brief sampling of our replacement components. We will start with a better, more durable and more expensive base material. For example we utilize Aluminum and Stainless Steel in place of the material used on original equipment components.

The pump creates a flow of water that draws it through the skimmer, main drain, and other water inlets. The water is then pushed through the pool's filtration system, where it is cleaned and returned to the pool. Pool pumps work by using an electric motor to drive a impeller, which creates a flow of water. The impeller is a rotating disk with curved blades that spin in a housing called the volute. As the impeller spins, it creates a low pressure area at the center of the volute, which draws water in through the inlet port. The water is then pushed out through the outlet port and into the pool's filtration system. The pump's motor is connected to the impeller by a shaft, which spins the impeller. The motor's speed determines how fast the impeller spins, which affects the flow rate of water. Most pool pumps have a variable speed motor, which allows you to adjust the speed and flow rate to match your pool's needs. There are two main types of pool pumps, single speed and variable speed. Single speed pool pumps have a fixed motor speed and flow rate. Variable speed pool pumps allow you to adjust the motor speed and flow rate to match your pool's needs. They are energy efficient and can save you money on your electricity bill. Pool pumps are a crucial component of any swimming pool. They work by circulating water through the filtration system, removing debris and contaminants to keep the water clean and safe for swimming. With the benefits of reduced maintenance, energy savings, and an extended lifespan, pool pumps are an essential investment for any pool owner. There are several benefits to using a pool pump, including: Cleaner water: Pool pumps help circulate water through the filtration system, removing debris and contaminants that can make the water cloudy or unsafe for swimming. Reduced maintenance: By keeping the water clean, pool pumps can reduce the amount of time and effort required to maintain the pool. Extended lifespan: By using a pool pump, you can extend the lifespan of your pool's filtration system, reducing the need for costly repairs or replacements. | mechanical_engineering |

The chemical structure, phase structure, thermal property, mechanical property and shape memory property of PLLGA were investigated through FT-IR, 1H NMR, GPC, DSC, XRD and tensile tests, and the shape memory microscopic mechanisms were analyzed. The results showed that good mechanical and shape memory properties can be obtained through changing of PLLGA compositions. For PLLGA90/10 and 80/20, the fixed phase was acted by their crystals and the entanglements of molecular chains, while the reversible phase was acted by their amorphous phase. However, for PLLGA 70/30 and 60/40, the fixed phase was only acted by the entanglements of molecular chains. In general, the best shape memory properties were showed by PLLGA 80/20. | mechanical_engineering |

Air purifiers help allergy sufferers by removing allergens in a room specific environment. Air purifiers remove airborne contaminants and allergens that can cause allergy symptoms. Particles that are lighter than air include pollen, mold spores, animal dander and dust. These are effectively filtered from the air in your home by using a quality air purifier. HEPA filters are essential for proper air filtration.
Austin Air air purifiers feature a true, medical grade HEPA filter that provides filtration for 3-5 years. These machines are extremely popular air purifiers for allergy and asthma sufferers. The series features air cleaners that have advanced filtration carbon blends for removal of gases, odors, and vapors. Austin offers the best deals for those with moderate allergies who are looking for a reliable and low maintenance air purifier that delivers first rate air filtration. Austin Air parts and filters are manufactured and assembled in the United States.
Construction, Design, and Air Filter Technology
Austin Air produces its products with solid steel construction and non-toxic paint for strength, reliability, and longevity. The company incorporates the only trusted air filtering technology used in hospitals and operating rooms. Unlike other air purifiers, these air cleaners do not emit any toxic ozone. Many allergy sufferers rely on their Austin Air cleaner to control very serious respiratory conditions like asthma. For these people, the smallest amount of an irritant can have severe effects.
The engineers at Austin Air started their design work by concentrating on developing the most critical component of the air cleaner--the filter system. Austin Air's 360-degree intake system draws air into all sides of the air cleaner. Every minute 250 cubic feet of air is processed by a 4-stage filter that progressively removes contaminants out of the air. This efficient filter enables the Austin to achieve a high performance level, to attain superior air flow rates, to sustain a longer life (5 years under normal residential use), and to increase the life expectancy of the HEPA media in the filter.
For an air cleaner to be effective it must remove sub-micron particles, noxious gases and chemicals without creating any by products like ozone. In every Austin Air cleaner, you will find medical grade HEPA and Activated Carbon. Developed to specifically protect our nose, mouth, throat, and lungs, True HEPA is the most effective particulate filtering media on the market. It removes 99.97% of all particulates as small as 0.3 microns and 95% of particulates 0.1 microns and smaller. Also, Austin uses specially manufactured Activated Carbon, which gives the carbon a larger surface area to chemically bind and adsorb more impurities. The result for you is nothing but clean air and improved indoor air quality. | mechanical_engineering |

Manufactured in Japan, the highly advanced materials will expand the company’s range of 3D printing options available to product designers, design engineers, manufacturers, hobbyists and more.
The new PET and high performance PLA filaments will be demonstrated in public for the first time on the Verbatim’s stand (Stand H12) at the TCT Show in Birmingham NEC, UK, held between 28-29 September. The new filaments complement the company’s existing portfolio of top grade ABS, PLA and ultra flexible PRIMALLOY™ (TPE) filaments. Also on display will be two other filaments that are soon to be launched: BVOH, a water-soluble support material; and PP (Polypropylene), a commonly used tough and flexible plastic.
PLA is a very popular choice in the 3D printing community given its low toxicity and better eco-friendly credentials compared to petroleum-based plastics. However, PLA sometimes has problems with warping and brittling, but the new high performance PLA material from Verbatim includes special additives from Mitsubishi that virtually eradicate these issues and offers longer life. In addition, the unique mix is soft enough to allow 3D printed objects made from Verbatim’s high performance PLA to be sandpapered for a smooth finish, a key feature when producing 3D objects for display purposes.
The new Verbatim PET filament is a stable yet lightweight plastic already popularly used for packaging bottled drinks, for which demand is growing in the 3D printing industry because of its ease of use, sturdiness (with a tensile strength of 70Mpa*) and high level of transparency (optical transmittance 90%*). Users will find the printed objects will be relatively smooth, with a ribbon-like texture and an attractive transparent, sparkly appearance.
“Manufactured in Japan with high quality materials and tight industry standards, the new materials we have introduced use highly evolved and proprietary manufacturing processes to yield the best possible 3D printing results. Consistency is key and Verbatim’s new 3D printing filaments offer consistent quality from spool to spool. The new products also benefit from better tolerances and will extrude effortlessly without risk of jamming or clogging in the printer,” explains Rüdiger Theobald, Marketing Director, Verbatim EMEA.
Verbatim’s new filaments are compatible with nearly all 3D printers, including Ultimaker, Massportal, MakerBot, Leapfrog, RepRap derivatives and those from Aye Aye Labs, Builder, iMaker, PrintrBot, and many others. A complete list is available on the company’s website: http://www.verbatim-europe.co.uk/en/3D/printer-compatibility/

Speakers at a meeting on smart industrial parks held by ITPC, HEPZA, and Quang Trung Software City. (Photo: VNA)
HCM City (VNS/VNA) - Enterprises in export processing zones (EPZs) and industrial parks (IPs) should use high technologies to better manage manufacturing processes and improve product quality.
“We can fully expect a future where everything will be automatic, people's living standards will be higher, and machines will serve instead of human in many functions," said Cao Thi Phi Van, Deputy Director of the HCM City Investment and Trade Promotion Centre (ITPC).
Tran Thien Long, deputy head of the HCM City Export Processing Zones and Industrial Parks Authority (Hepza), said the city has set a goal to have all EPZs and IPs being “green, clean and hi-tech” by 2025 and build new hi-tech zones for supporting industries.
Priority will be given to current investors in hi-tech especially those applying the Industry 4.0, and support industries with high value-addition, he said.
Speaking at a meeting on smart industrial parks last week, Lam Nguyen Hai Long, director of Quang Trung Software Park, pointed out that in smart industrial parks, everything will be appended to sensors and IoT (Internet of Things) devices, allowing businesses to have a comprehensive understanding about equipment and machines being used in industrial parks.
AI systems will give directions and automatically correct errors of devices. Therefore, daily duties will be solved quickly and operation processes will go smoothly without much interruption.
“In the future, we can also expect robots and humans working together.”
The fourth Industrial Revolution has significantly changed the manufacturing process. Enterprises that want to maintain and develop for a long time will have to enter the technological race to promote their production models, he noted.
Smart industrial parks can offer enterprises competitive advantages as everything is automatic and digitised. Enterprises can easily control an entire system with a mobile phone, reducing dependence on labourers. Very few people are needed to operate the model as everything is determined quickly and automatically by computers and AI systems.
Workers’ jobs will consist of operating systems and checking for arising problems. Workers will also have the responsibility of solving complex problems that are beyond the capabilities of computers.
Challenges facing IPs
In HCM City, EPZ and IP infrastructure, mostly built in the 1990s, has deteriorated, especially wastewater treatment facilities, with a number of central wastewater treatment systems found to have violated environment/wastewateral regulations.
Many companies seeking to expand cannot find enough land for lease, and rentals are priced too high compared to EPZs and IPs in neighbouring provinces.
In addition, roads near EPZs and IPs are often overloaded, leading to higher production costs for tenants and limiting their competitiveness.
Other problems include lack of schools, accommodations and medical facilities for workers and their families, experts said.
The limited availability of skilled IT and management personnel is another problem.
To address these issues, administrative procedures related to investment, labour and construction in EPZs and IPs need to be simplified to attract foreign investment. The quality of life and working environment/wastewater for workers also must be improved, experts said.

The original Santos Dumont (invented in 1904 by Mr Louis Cartier for his friend, the Brazilian aviation pioneer Mr Alberto Santos-Dumont) is not only considered to be the very first pilot’s watch ever created, but also the first-ever men’s wristwatch. Equally impressive, the modern version of the watch – which, launched in 1978, took the square case of the original and added a steel bracelet and the watch’s trademarks screw details which is one of the key styles that helped transform Cartier into the globally recognised brand it is today. It was so successful in the 1980s, that it became perhaps the signature watch of that period, thanks in part to its appearance in movies from Wall Street to Clear And Present Danger. Since then, it’s been a favourite that has continued to receive tweaks such as the larger sized Santos Galbée XL in 2005 – but always remained true to the original, now-classic design.
Naturally, then, for its 40th anniversary in 2018, Cartier had to do something special with Santos de Cartier. And clearly, they took this task seriously. In 2016, Santos de Cartier watches were quietly discontinued, much to the consternation of many watch fans. Then, at this year’s SIHH watch fair, an all-new Santos range was unveiled
As throughout the history of Santos, the key updates here are subtle, but timely. The case, originally inspired by the silhouette of the Eiffel Tower, has been given slightly softer, more elegant curves that fit more comfortably on the wrist. The bezel has been extended towards the strap, which can now be interchanged easily, without tools, thanks to Cartier’s QuickSwitch system. What’s more, each watch comes with two straps – and the movement has been updated to Cartier’s in-house automatic calibre 1847 MC, which was introduced in the 2015 Cartier Clé collection. All styles come in two sizes: medium (at 35.6mm in diameter) and large (39.8mm), the latter of which features a date window at six o’clock. | mechanical_engineering |

WASHINGTON, D.C. – The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) presented its findings from their limited investigation of the July 29th derailment of a WMATA train on Wednesday.
The NTSB sent two investigators to the scene of the Orange Line train 602 derailment near East Falls Church, Virginia. Their goal was to assess the accident, as well as to determine whether a broader investigation of the incident was needed.
The derailment, which occurred on July 29th, occurred at an interlocking around 50 feet from the East Falls Church station platform. Nearly 75 passengers were evacuated from the train, and three injuries were reported. Service was suspended and resumed on Monday, August 1st.
The NTSB did not state the probable cause of the derailment. However, they did find that there was a 59 inch gage between the rails of the track in the location of the derailment. WMATA standards require a track gage greater 57-1/4 inches to be removed from service. According to the report, the investigators also noted a defective tie condition in the area of the accident. They found more than 30 feet of track with no effective crossties.
According to the report, WMATA will be taking several corrective actions after this investigation. | mechanical_engineering |

If you recently added a new treadmill that has its own application, AI and Wifi and some karaoke microphones that connect to the television, the company has put on sale an electric radiator that has been a bestseller.
As reported from Gizchina, Xiaomi has put on sale on its website a Mijia electric radiator that has been a success. This product has exceeded the crowdfunding expectations of the company, since in less than 12 hours a total of 30,000 units of this product have been sold.
The electric radiator is a product developed by Xiaomi and the ecological company Zhimi Technology (Smartmi), and can heat the air from inside a house making the cold air disappear evenly in a room of the house with up to 15 square meters. In addition, it admits the adjustment of temperature of five speeds: 20ºC, 22ºC, 24ºC, 26ºC and 32ºC.
30,000 radiators sold in less than 12 hours
Once the radiator is activated, it self-regulates as if it were an air conditioner. In the same way, the Mijiia heater has a built-in WiFi module that allows you to connect the device to the Mi Home application and the Xiao IA speaker. In this way it becomes fully compatible with voice control and remote control.
This new product is also intended to offer safety, since the radiator body has a cover of a fireproof material and supports the level of splashes of IPX4, so it can also be used in a bathroom. In case of overheating, it has a sensor that makes the radiator go out and a blocking mode so children can not use it.
At the moment this successful radiator of Xiaomi is for sale in China at a price of 299 yuan, about 38 euros to change. According to the company, the total amount of collective financing of the device exceeds 9.43 million yuan, about 1.20 million euros. | mechanical_engineering |

High power density devices (like power electronics or high power vacuum
tubes) have always resorted to liquid cooling. It's so much more efficient
than trying to cool with air. For a variety of reasons, but primarily
because it separates the problem of physical device and radiator surface.
Consider liquid vs air cooled internal combustion engines. Really high
power density often uses some sort of phase change (ebullient) cooling,
although the design challenges are significant. Even some laptops have used
liquid or phase change cooling (heat pipes) to move the heat from the CPU to
the case. An interesting exception to liquid cooling for high power devices
is big generators, which are cooled with hydrogen gas (low viscosity and
density, so low aerodynamic drag)
But liquid cooling, per se, isn't a crippling thing to work with. And, it
actually allows certain design economies: no more do you have to constrain
the design for air flow, or conduction through the boards, nor do you have
to fool with an array of CPU fans, video card fans, etc.

Consider that 10kW is 5-10 times the power dissipation of a hair dryer.
Other solutions that might turn up are an internal cooling loop to move
heat from inside to a big heatsink on the surface. Modern rack mounted PCs
aren't particularly designed for efficient thermal transfer with minimal air
flow. (there's no economic incentive for it)
There are economies of scale to a common chiller, though, because when you
get to large HVAC, cold water is what you get, rather than cold air, because
moving cold air is a LOT more expensive than moving cold water.

There are such things as individual rack chillers, which you would bolt to a
rack and then hook up to a centralized cold water source.

Setra has the raw material, sawdust, while Preem has refineries and filling stations. The pyrolysis plant in Kastet creates a strong new value chain for renewable fuels, from forest to tank.
Setra has long been investigating the potential to make greater use of the by-products generated by its sawmills and processing units, primarily chips and sawdust. The aim has been to increase both the economic value and the climate benefit of the products.
Funded by Klimatlivet
In 2016, Setra initiated a feasibility study into bio-oil production based on pyrolysis, the purpose of which was to examine whether a pyrolysis plant could be integrated with the sawmill in Gävle and the nearby combined heat and power plant. This concept formed the basis for the application to Klimatklivet that was submitted in spring 2017. Klimatklivet is a Swedish government funding initiative that supports local and regional measures to reduce emissions of carbon dioxide and other gases that affect the climate. In early summer, Setra received the great news from Klimatklivet that the plant had been granted SEK 117 million in investment aid.
With the investment secured, work began on applying for an environmental permit. Consultations were held in the summer of 2017 and a final application was submitted to the Environmental Permit Office in Dalarna in late December. Following supplementary information and statements, an environmental permit was obtained for the business in October 2018.
Collaboration between Setra and Preem
In parallel, discussions were held between Setra and Preem about a collaboration. A letter ofintent was signed in summer 2016 and the decision to set up a joint company, Pyrocell, followed a year later.
Preem's goal is to promote the development of more sustainable biofuel production. The fuel company has initiated a range of projects and partnerships with various other parties, with a view to finding sustainable raw materials and processing techniques. Converting sawdust into bio-oil at a pyrolysis plant is fully in line with Preem's strategy.
In spring 2019, the boards of Preem and Setra took the final decision to invest in the pyrolysis plant in Gävle. During the summer of 2019, the construction project was staffed and then planning and procurement of the pyrolysis plant and chip management system began. On March 23, 2020, the first shovel of soil was turned and the plant was commissioned during the autumn of 2021. | mechanical_engineering |

There are several reasons to have your windshield repaired instead of replaced.
Crack repairs are cost-effective.
Repairing a long crack in your windshield is often more cost-effective than replacing the entire glass. This is especially true for vehicles equipped with Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS), as replacing the windshield can be significantly more expensive due to the need to recalibrate the systems. Repairing a crack can prevent it from spreading and causing further damage, potentially saving you from replacing the entire windshield. Additionally, windshield repair is quicker and less time-consuming than windshield replacement, which means less downtime for your vehicle. Not only is repairing a crack in your windshield a cost-effective option, but it can also help ensure the safety and functionality of your vehicle's ADAS systems, which rely on a clear and unobstructed view of the road.
Your repair will have a scar, but repairs typically look much better.
Once a windshield crack is repaired, it is essential to remember that the damage may still be slightly visible. The main objective of the repair is to restore the structural integrity of the glass and is not cosmetic. This is accomplished by drilling a small hole at the end to terminate the crack and filling the damage with a specially designed resin that bonds with both surrounding layers of glass and the layer of plastic (PVB) in the middle. This process must be done by a trained professional and can not be done with a do-it-yourself kit. Once the resin cures, the repaired area becomes the strongest part of the glass. Even though the repair will be slightly visible, it will not jeopardize the safety or functionality of the windshield. Overall, while the appearance of the crack may not be completely eliminated, a repair will significantly enhance the glass's strength and appearance.
Your repair will be stronger than new glass and last forever.
Repair it and forget it. We use only the best resin in the industry, and your repair will be up to 156% stronger than brand-new glass. Once we repair your windshield, we warranty the repair for as long as you own your vehicle.
Free mobile service
Delaying a repair can lead to a larger crack and require a complete windshield replacement.

Civic Trees not only specialises in supplying and planting nursery prepared trees, but also relocates exiting trees. Using and refining processes developed throughout history, Civic Trees has perfected industry leading techniques for lifting existing trees from one location and transporting them to another before successfully replanting it. Using these methods, it is possible to lift trees with stem circumferences up to 300cm.
Whether moving trees across the country as part of a house move, or relocating trees on a site to allow for new development, relocating existing trees is an efficient and effective way to re-deploy existing tree stocks.
Tree moving can be used to great effect on development sites where, in their existing location, trees inhibit progress. Subject to local authority approval, even trees covered by Tree Preservation Orders can be relocated. Often this technique, coupled with planned replanting of semi-mature trees after development, can achieve a planning gain benefitting both the community and developer alike.
Relocation is of particular use on country estates and golf courses where young tree plantations are often in abundance. Thinning young tree stocks to decrease planting density will encourage stronger, fuller growth of those trees that remain as well as providing new plants for use around the property.
A number of methods are employed for successfully transplanting both mature and semi-mature trees. An extensive range of tree-spades and the Newman® Frame allow trees to be moved with stem circumferences up to 300cm. Also, the range of equipment and the use of flotation tyres, allows access to be gained to almost all sites and trees.Newman® Frame
For situations where the use of tree-spades is not practical – such as for large trees with stem circumferences between 90 and 300cm, or sites with limited access, we developed the Newman® Frame.
This technology has been exported around the globe, and has proved itself in numerous countries under a huge diversity of conditions. It has become the accepted way to achieve economy and quality when transporting large trees.Tree Spades
This machinery is the most common way of lifting, transporting and replanting semi-mature trees – and the development of the equipment in the mid 1960’s was the greatest mechanisation in the industry, as it reduced the time needed to prepare and lift a tree from a nursery.
Civic Trees introduced the first Vermeer tree spade into Europe in 1968. Today, we have the largest and most comprehensive fleet of tractor mounted tree spades in the UK, and we can easily move trees with stem circumferences up to 90cm from one site to another.
This size range allows us to move almost all semi-mature trees. Hire arrangements with the manufacturers of larger machines allow us to have access to equipment up to 3m in diameter. | mechanical_engineering |

As the nomenclature suggests, this modern reinterpretation of the legendary 512 BB (Berlinetta Boxer) was commissioned by none other than the legendary guitarist Eric Clapton himself and developed by Centro Stile Ferrari in collaboration with Pininfarina.
To fulfill Eric Clapton’s desire to drive a car inspired by the iconic 512 BB, of which he’d been owning and attached to, SP12 was based on Midship-Rear Drive 458 Italia, not on 599 or FF/F12 other special projects are based on.
Pininfarina reported the design process as follows;
“[…] the car’s most typical cue [is] the separation line between the black lower and the red upper parts. Perfectly horizontal in the original version it slopes steeply in the one-off. The line thus gains dynamism and modernity while remaining consistent with the original image.”
“The rear shoulder has been remodeled to create a more dynamic wing. Still in the rear we find strong references to classic Ferrari-Pininfarina styling cues such as the rear fins and vertical rear window which gave iconic status to cars like the 308, the Dino, the 208 or again the 288 GTO. Notes of modernity arrive from the Enzo-inspired headlights.”
“Special attention was paid to the design of the armrest: the guitarist in fact asked for particular care to be paid to this so that his fabled left arm was able to find appropriate room to lie on.”
The only remorse would be it retains the same 4,499cc F136 V8 making 570hp from 458 Italia, it would have been ecstatic and even more complete if they’d put some flat V12 heart like the good old 512 BB.
Guess this one would justify the $4.7 Million price tag Eric Clapton paid for.. | mechanical_engineering |

In the development of the new high-end blade from the Fire Fall series, the VICTAS material experts aimed at designing the ultimate combination of speed development and control. V-Carbon, one of the hardest and sturdiest carbon fibers in the world, offers exactly these properties. Thanks to this high-tech fiber, the blade has excellent stability, which greatly improves control in extreme situations. With the hardness and power of the V-Carbon fiber combined with five fine wood plies, the Fire Fall VC provides for outstanding acceleration for unlimited creativity and vigor in offensive play. The Fire Fall VC is a real milestone in the field of blade design!

Technology: Dynamic Core Effect*
*Dynamic Core Effect
All blades of the brand-new VICTAS Fire Fall series were developed based on the “Dynamic Core Effect” system: 5 carefully chosen wooden plies are combined with High-Tech fibre material placed directly on the plywood core, bringing together the speed of carbon fibre and the great feel of classic all-wood blades. The Ayous core of the Fire Fall blades is combined with an elastic and stable synthetic fibre (e.g. aramid-carbon). This is why VICTAS Fire Fall blades have more feel than other carbon blades in the OFF segment, without lacking the advantages of synthetic fibre materials (high stability, more speed). The Fire Fall series, like all other blades of the VICTAS brand, is distinguished by uncompromising premium workmanship. | mechanical_engineering |

Both these perils can be covered under MB policy and hence we should wherever possible include this in our MB portfolio since it would practically mean granting extra cover within the scope of tariff provisions.
Types of Explosions
It can be broadly classified under two categories for the purpose of insurance cover.
It is a matter of common knowledge that gun powder, similar explosive compound could cause explosion under the influence of mechanical or thermal shocks. Highly inflammable fluids and dusts can cause explosions if their concentration in the atmosphere exceeds the explosive limits. From the insurance concept, these explosions are considered as very rapid form of combustion.
In respect of pressure vessels handling inert fluids such as steam, explosion can occur due to variation in fluid pressure. The variation being only in physical form and there no chemical reaction or changes responsible for such explosions as such these are classified as Physical Explosions.
Scope of Cover

Affordable Insulators, a trusted name in the insulation services business, provides a comprehensive spectrum of polyurethane concrete raising and maintenance services to suit diverse needs and budget. Whether you need concrete raising, void filling, or slab stabilization, we are ideally placed to address various concrete related issues, saving you from incurring prohibitive replacement costs.
Our experts conduct an in-depth assessment to determine whether your structure needs leveling and repair, or a complete replacement. Based on the findings, we offer professional and unbiased advice on the best way forward. Since inception, all of our clients have been pleasantly surprised at the savings they have been able to realize through our expert services, and you could be the next.
Polyurethane concrete raising is an effective alternative to replacement, entailing savings of up to 50 percent. Apart from being a reliable and cost-effective solution, polyurethane concrete rising allows the work area to sustain normal usage within a few minutes after the completion of the job. In addition, easy material processing and clean up make it an obvious choice over mud-jacking.
Polyurethane foam treatments are not only a viable solution for sunken concrete surfaces, but can also be used for void filling and stabilization in an array of structures such as patios, front porches, driveways, sidewalks, garage & parking slabs, steps, and pool decks, among others. In all cases, the process promises exceptional savings, without affecting the day-to-day activities in the area.
Most concrete raising jobs take approximately 1-2 hours to complete, after which it is ready for normal usage almost immediately. Here’s an overview of how it works:
High-Density Polyurethane Injection is used for concrete lifting, stabilization, and void filling applications. Preferred by Contractors and DOTs around the USA. Lifting concrete with foam offers the same results of traditional concrete raising, stabilization, and void filling, but with new and improved characteristics. Cost-effective compared to concrete replacement, this high-density polyurethane foam has quick cure time, is hydrophobic, moisture barrier, lightweight and provides 5/8” injection holes. With a material for any application, we are leading the concrete raising industry with this revolutionary new polyurethane application.
Density Polyurethane concrete lifting and stabilization avoid costly tear out and replacement. This allows business to run smoothly around the Polyurethane project avoiding down time.
Polyurethane typically cures 15 minutes after injection allowing areas to be fully available in minutes not days.
Specially designed High-Density Polyurethane can be used in underwater or wet applications and have the same chemical reaction.
Because of high-density polyurethane characteristics, this foam-like material is resistant to water penetration.
Spray Polyurethane Foam (SPF) is an insulation product that is spray-applied in situ at a building site or residence. Two liquid components, MDI (A) and polyol blend (B) are mixed under pressure and sprayed onto a roof or wall cavity. The reacting liquids expand and solidify into a foam matrix creating a seamless seal. SPF adheres well to the area it is applied to, providing an air barrier that prevents thermal leaks.
Closed-cell foam (sometimes known as two-pound or medium density foam) has a high R-value of around 6 per inch. It acts as an air and vapor barrier. It also provides structural enhancement.
Open-cell foam (sometimes known as half-pound or low density foam) has an R-value of 3.6 per inch, and may act as an air barrier. It also acts as a noise absorber.
SPF provides insulation, air and moisture protection for many different commercial building roof and wall configurations. SPF use allows for flexibility of building design, reducing overall maintenance costs, and can extend the lifespan of the building.
SPF seals wall and roof cavities to save the homeowner money on heating and cooling expenses. Not only does it provide thermal protection, it provides moisture and air barriers mitigating dangerous mold and wood rot of the structure. | mechanical_engineering |
