|
| The labelling with radio-active inert gases of aerosols which are then shot into the surface of the particles makes possible the indication of the individual aerosol particles by radiographic means and also determination of their size. With the aid of the fall in activity of labelled aerosol samples during structural change of the particle caused by chemical reaction it is further possible to obtain information about the chemical nature of ... |

| Authors:
R. I. Mitchell; J. A. Gieseke; A. A. Putnam; J. M. Pilcher; E. J. Schulz; BATTELLE MEMORIAL INST COLUMBUS OH COLUMBUS LABS
|
| The objective of this research was to develop an understanding of the settling behavior of concentrated aerosol clouds (mass subsidence) and to determine the effect of mass subsidence on the history of aerosols. A thorough literature review of the subject was made, and a theoretical study was conducted to establish critical design considerations of the experimental equipment. Due to its ease of formation, cigarette smoke was used as the test ... |

Richard Dennis; Arnold W. Doyle; Paul Morgenstern; Carlton O. Hommel; Earl S. Rosenblum; GCA CORP BEDFORD MA GCA TECHNOLOGY DIV
|
| This report describes the work accomplished during the sixth quarter of a program to develop, design, and fabricate a complete chamber aerosol assessment system. Its primary application will be in the area of testing and evaluating methods of disseminating chemical agents in which the mass concentration and chemical and physical properties of the aerosol clouds must be defined accurately to predict aerodynamic transport and physiological effects. For optimum utilization, sensor ... |

| The Growth of Condensation Nuclei with Relative Humidity, |
JUL 1968 |

| Authors:
C. Junge; ARMY BIOLOGICAL LABS FREDERICK MD
|
 | An explanation shall be attempted here concerning the growth of condensation nuclei which proceeds from the consideration that a vigorous coagulation of the particles sets in, particularly in smokes, combustion gases and in large cities generally, and that a large part of the nuclei represent mixed nuclei which contain partly soluble, partly insoluble substances. When the growth of such nuclei is calculated, the curves are obtained, which proceeded from the ... |

|
| Currently available nose and mouth fittings for aerosol inhalers used to introduce medicinal substance into the human organism are unsatisfactory in that they are fragile, are of varying dimensions, and are difficult to stabilize. New plastic fittings have been devised which are easily sterilized and which can be used with all recently developed aerosol devices. (Author) |

|
| This report describes the work that was performed in three major areas during the contract period. These include: (1) a study of optical, electronic, aerodynamic and mechanical principles leading to the design concepts of an efficient fixed-angle nephelometer to measure the sum of molecular and aerosol scattering coefficients in three wavelength bands in the visible and near infrared by using the axicon principle in reverse to measure scattering at 55 ... |

| Authors:
M. Becquet
|
| The purpose of this paper is to explain the set-up of a general method for finding the geometrical limits of a three-dimensional mechanical manipulator workspace. Open chain manipulators made out of links connected by single degree of freedom joints are here considered. The manipulator configurations corresponding to inner and outer limits of workspace are found by the study of analytical relations between the end effector location and the joint coordinates. ... |

|
| The computer aided teleoperation approach as now evolving from the ARA and RAM projects in France comprises the combination of manipulation and locomotion plus other major functions to reach the work site in real world environment, to cross obstacles and in particular the barrier to hostile or to survive in critical situations. Increasing levels of autonomy are already demonstrated and promising next steps. The differences between the intelligence for vehicle ... |

| Use of Moving Vision Sensors in Robotics Application to an Obstacle Avoidance Task. |

| Authors:
P. Rives; L. Maree
|
| The use of vision sensors directly mounted on the robot's end effector allows to obtain straight information about robot-environment interactions. This approach is developed at I.R.I.S.A. under the following assumptions: low resolution sensors with bounded bearing ('local' vision) are used; dynamic information ('optical flow') is extracted from image sequences; this information is used to compute next motion of the robot in a closed loop control scheme. The first part of ... |

| Generating 3D-Collision-Free Paths for a Computer Controlled Robot. |

| Authors:
G. Clermont; P. Gaspart; P. Lecoq
|
| This paper presents a method for the automatic generation of collision-free paths in the 3D-space for an object handled by an articulated robot. A spatial model of the robotic environment is presented: the objects and the robot itself are modelled as a union of simplified convex volumes. A collision detection algorithm has been designated to calculate the shortest distance between two objects in the environment. The 3D-space is searched with ... |

|
| The Artificial Intelligence and Robotics Group of the LIFIA laboratory has started a project aimed at implementing an integrated system for automatic programming of assembly robots: the SHARP system. Several components of this system including a grasp planner, a motion planner and a geometric modeller have already been partly implemented. In this paper we will focus on the gross-motion planner, which allows to solve the find-path problem according to several ... |

| Authors:
W. J. Hopp; M. L. Spearman; D. L. Woodruff
|
| In this paper we explore the causes of excessive lead time and suggest practical, inexpensive strategies for reducing it. Our recommendations are based on a detailed study of six manufacturing facilities, a survey of current literature, and our on-going research. After describing the relationship between WIP (work in process), mean flow time, flow time variance, and lead time, we systematically review potential methods for reducing lead time by reducing mean ... |
