Dunnage Bags, also known as airbags, were introduced some 40 years ago as a convenient, fast and cost effective alternative to secure and stabilize cargo in ISO sea-containers, closed railcars, trucks and vessels. This article is written to explain how the use of dunnage bags can have an impact on the road safety. According to the European Commission Transportation Department "it has been estimated that up to 25% of accidents involving trucks can be attributable to inadequate cargo securing". Besides the possibility of causing severe accidents, improperly secured cargo can also lead to loss of cargo, loss of lives, loss of vehicles, ships and airplanes and can be a hazard for the environment. Although there are many ways to stabilize a...

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Duplicating machines were the predecessors of modern document-reproduction technology. They have now been replaced by digital duplicators, scanners, laser printers and photocopiers, but for many years they were the primary means of reproducing documents for mass distribution. Like the typewriter, these machines were children of the second phase of the industrial revolution which started near the end of the 19th century. This second phase brought to mass markets things like the small electric motors and the products of industrial chemistry without which the duplicating machines would not have been economical.

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! A dye laser is a laser which uses an organic dye as the lasing medium, usually as a liquid solution. Compared to gases and most solid state lasing media, a dye can usually be used for a much wider range of wavelengths. The wide bandwidth makes them particularly suitable for tunable lasers and pulsed lasers. Moreover, the dye can be replaced by another type in order to generate different wavelengths with the same laser, although this usually requires replacing other optical components in the laser as well. Dye lasers were independently discovered by P. P. Sorokin and F. P. Schafer in 1966. In addition to the usual liquid state, dye lasers are also available as solid state dye lasers. SSDL use...

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Dymaxion map or Fuller map is a projection of a World map onto the surface of a polyhedron, which can then be unfolded to a net in many different ways and flattened to form a two-dimensional map which retains most of the relative proportional integrity of the globe map. It was created by Buckminster Fuller, and patented by him during 1946, the patent application showing a projection onto a cuboctahedron. The 1954 version published by Fuller with the title The AirOcean World Map used a slightly modified but mostly regular icosahedron as the base for the projection, and this is the version most commonly referred to today. The name Dymaxion was applied by Fuller to several of his inventions....

A general dynamic model for continuous EPDM polymerization in which crosslinking and gel formation are attributable to reactions between pendant double bonds has been developed. A pseudo- kinetic rate constant method is introduced to construct a moment model for a pseudo-homopolymer that approximates the behavior of the actual terpolymer under long chain and quasi-steady state assumptions. The proposed dynamic model is capable of predicting polydispersities and molecular weight distributions near the gel point. A parameter selection procedure is proposed to determine the kinetic parameters that can be estimated from the limited plant data. The procedure is based on the steady-state parameter output sensitivity matrix. The overall effect...

A general framework has been developed to investigate dynamic stability of composite plates under dynamic and static compressive loads. A variationally consistent, higher-order shear deformation theory has been used to model the displacement field. The linear strain-displacement relationship corresponding to the small deformation assumption is used first. Both transverse shear and rotary inertia effects are taken into account. The mathematical model is implemented using the finite element approach. The impact of delamination on the natural frequencies, critical buckling load, and instability regions is investigated Parametric studies are conducted to investigate the influence of delamination placement and size, boundary conditions, plate...

A thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) is a unique polymeric material with properties and functional performance similar to those of a conventional vulcanized rubber; still it can be processed in a molten state as a thermoplastic polymer. The unique characteristics of TPEs make them very useful and attractive alternatives for conventional elastomers in a variety of markets, such as automotives, buildings and constructions, wires and cables etc. Thermoplastic vulcanizates (TPVs) are a special class of TPEs, produced by simultaneously mixing and crosslinking a rubber with a thermoplastic. TPVs based on PP/EPDM blends are the most important from a commercial viewpoint. When a peroxide is added as the crosslinking agent to a PP/EPDM blend, two...

The 3D finite element analysis were used in this research to investigate surface ground vibration due to a moving train. This 3D finite element mesh includes the soil and bridge meshes modeled by using the 3D 8-node element. After FEM analysis, 1/3 octave band method was used in frequency domain to compute the vibration from the ground velocity in time domain. The resonant vibration in this study can be clearly seen from the finite element result. As an illustration of the numerical analysis, the train speed v approaches the Rayleigh wave velocity in supporting soil; a large peak has been occurred in the figure approaching track-soil critical velocities. However, it does not have a large increase in generated ground vibrations in the...

Improving navigation performance of autonomous wheeled mobile robot (WMR) in a dynamic, unstructured environment requires improved maneuverability. In such cases, the dynamics of wheel slip may violate the ideal no-slip constraint generally used to model nonholomic WMR. In this book, a new model is presented to tackle the modeling inadequacy that arises when slip is neglected by including both longitudinal and lateral slip dynamics into the overall dynamics of the WMR. The presented model provides a realistic simulation scenario that can be utilized to develop model-based controller to improve WMR navigation. In particular, to demonstrate how this model can be useful in developing model-based planning and control of WMR with wheel slip,...

Dynamic and real time control of an emergency arising from railway operations, different ways of modeling and solving that in a computationally effective manner to address real life implementation issues are analyzed. In railway operations, substantial investment is done in planning a conflict free operable schedule with diverse performance objectives. Still when a minor disruption pronounces just-in time and location, there is minimum lead time for plan recovery. A few novel rescheduling decisions are formulated, compared in quantitative measures, and analysed using an aggregate model as a set of constraints and objectives to be solved by (i) a mathematical programming solver, (ii) constructive heuristics and (iii) agent based...
