This paper discusses the development of a low-cost, redundant, strapdown inertial measurement unit (IMU). The unit comprises four ceramic vibrating structure gyroscopes and four QLC 400 accelerometers configured on a truncated tetrahedron design. This design allows for the optimal configuration of the eight sensors, which in turn provides for a theoretical 33% increase in information. The redun...

Filter media composed of electrostatically charged nonwovens is the key device in an air purifier. Pleated filters are constructed from a cardboard frame with lattice faces containing filter reinforce by expanded support grid, which have more surface area for trapping contaminants and capture airborne effectively than non-pleated filters. The aim this work to investigate dominant factors on fil...

Gaseous microemboli have been associated with post operative neurological deficits in patients undergoing cardiopulmonary bypass. Creating an optimal perfusion system that minimizes microemboli production and has enhanced abilities to sequester entrained air during the bypass procedure has been an important focus. This study examines the air-handling capabilities of a cardiopulmonary bypass cir...

There is a lack of research and literature concerned with services which are produced and delivered over substantial, sustained time periods. The growing Leisure Air Travel industry has a major component of extended–duration product (long-haul flights). In the existing literature, there is little or no distinction made between leisure and business travellers regarding their motivation and expec...

Fenomena yang ada bahwa air tanah di daerah komplek kampus terpadu UPN Veteran Yogyakarta berbau dan berwarna coklat kemerahan, apabila tersebut juga menimbulkan endapan pada bak penampung air. Berdasarkan fenomena tersebut, maka diduga mengandung zat besi (Fe) Mangan (Mn) cukup tinggi. Guna mengatasi hal diperlukan upaya mereduksi kadar sesuai dengan peraturan disyaratkan. Fokus utama dari pen...

Recent advances in software testing introduced parameterized unit tests (PUT), which accept parameters, unlike conventional unit tests (CUT), which do not accept parameters. PUTs are more beneficial than CUTs with regards to fault-detection capability, since PUTs help describe the behaviors of methods under test for all test arguments. In general, existing applications often include manually wr...

The valve testing unit is a high pressure test equipment to test the valve manufactured in industries. Valves are tested to ensure that they sustain high pressure in the range of 10000 to 15000 PSI for the required amount of time without any leakage. It has few drawbacks such as inefficient usage of power, fatal accidents due to the proximity of the users with the testing unit to note the valve...

Lead is a common toxic metal in our environment. It is present at high concentrations (up to 600 g/kg) in some paints manufactured before 1970. Some artistic ceramic products and leaded glass contain substantial amounts of lead that can be leached by weak acids such as vinegar and fruit juices. Lead is also found in dirt from areas adjacent to buildings painted with lead-based paints and on hig...

A fourth-degree Substrate Integrated Waveguide (SIW) crossed coupled band pass filter for WLAN band is designed by using a new negative coupling structure. It consists of two U shape microstrip lines on top and bottom planes with via holes at the center of them. This paper investigates the phase characteristics of negative and positive coupling structures and their effects. The design, fabricat...
