Submersible-operated porewater sampler for permeable sediments
A sampler was developed to collect porewater from permeable (sandy) sediments during manned-submersible operations. The sampler uses vacuum (or atmospheric-pressure) reservoirs to draw porewater into a sediment probe and then into inline sample loops. The sampler is relatively inexpensive, easy to construct, and selfcontained, operating without an external power supply. The sample-loop/reservoi...
متن کاملA pneumatically operated, submersible, 3-dimensional water sampler for microscale studies
To determine how marine microorganisms locally interact, it is critical to assess their 3-dimensional distribution with microscale spatial sampling resolution and minimal disturbance. Here we describe a 3-dimensional syringe pump water sampling device that overcomes the constraints of previous 1or 2-dimensional samplers. 3DMAPPER consists of a 1-m3 cubic stainless-steel structure supporting thr...
متن کاملInexpensive and Automatic Calibration for Acceleration Sensors
In this paper, we present two methods for calibration of acceleration sensors that are inexpensive, in-situ, require minimum user interaction and are targeted to a broad set of acceleration sensor applications and devices. We overcome the necessity of orthogonal axes alignment by extending existing calibration methods with a non-orthogonal axes model. Our non-orthogonal method can furthermore b...
متن کاملSubmersible Spectrofluorometer for Real-Time Sensing of Water Quality
In this work, we present a newly developed submersible spectrofluorometer (patent pending) applied to real-time sensing of water quality, suitable for monitoring some important indicators of the ecological status of natural waters such as chlorophyll-a, oil and protein-like material. For the optomechanical realization of the apparatus, a novel conceptual design has been adopted in order to avoi...
متن کاملResearch on the water-entry attitude of a submersible aircraft
BACKGROUND The water entry of a submersible aircraft, which is transient, highly coupled, and nonlinear, is complicated. After analyzing the mechanics of this process, the change rate of every variable is considered. A dynamic model is build and employed to study vehicle attitude and overturn phenomenon during water entry. Experiments are carried out and a method to organize experiment data is ...
