In this paper, we present the ZenRobotics Recycler, a system that sorts construction and demolition (CND) waste by picking valuable objects from a conveyor belt using robotic hands. It is the first CND recycling system that reaches a useful purity of wood, stone, and metal without resorting to human sorters. We describe how we applied machine learning to solve some of the key problems such as r...

background: achalasia is the most recognized esophageal motor disorder with an unknown etiology. symptoms rather than physical findings are hallmarks of the disease. modalilies for treatment include pharmacologic, botulinum toxin injection, pneumatic dilation and surgery. materials and methods: to review the diagnostic and therapeutic options currently available for achalasia. a medline search ...

achalasia is a well- defined esophageal motor disorder. graded pneumatic dilation using rigiflex ballon is one of the therapeutic modalities that had not been evaluated in a large long-term study. we aimed at evaluating long-term efficacy of graded rigiflex pneumatic dilation in the treatment of achalasia. symptomatic patients with achalasia who had been referred to our center were consecutivel...

Now a day’s Belt conveyor system not only used in mining industries but also applied in cement industries, power plant, food industries, production industries etc. So it is essential equipment for in house material transportation today. The paper presents the review of belt conveyor design modification and latest technologies or methodologies used in different applications to reduce failures, m...

The conveyor system plays a vital role in improving the performance of flexible manufacturing cells (FMCs). The conveyor selection problem involves the evaluation of a set of potential alternatives based on qualitative and quantitative criteria. This paper presents an integrated multi-criteria decision making (MCDM) model of a fuzzy AHP (analytic hierarchy process) and fuzzy ARAS (additive rati...

Prior to the widespread adoption of electrical and electronic controls, buildings often used pneumatic control systems. Large and powerful compressors drove 3psi to 15psi pneumatic signals throughout a plant and these pneumatic lines connected to pneumatically controlled valves and pneumatically controlling valves in order to drive proportional controls and actuators throughout the building, al...

Pneumatic actuators convert pneumatic energy into mechanical motion. This motion can be linear or rotary. Linear motion is feasible with pneumatic cylinders (e. g. single-acting cylinder, double-acting cylinder, rodless cylinder) and pneumatic artificial muscles (PAMs). Pneumatic artificial muscle is the newest and most promising type of pneumatic actuators. PAM is a membrane that expands radia...

OBJECTIVE To show the efficacy and comfort of pneumatic bag packing after the endoscopic nasal surgery. Pneumatic bag packing may be recommendable in terms of comfort and efficacy after endoscopic nasal surgery. Significant findings: There were statistical significant differences between the pneumatic bag packing and the expansive sponge packing regarding subjective symptoms and objective findi...

This paper presents a low power low voltage positive third generation current conveyor using four simple first generation current conveyors. It is designed and simulated in a standard 0.18um TSMC 1P, 6M CMOS process. This current conveyor design with the help of design architect and IC station (mentor graphics). Its DC, AC and transient analysis is carried out with ELDO tool. Its pre layout and...
