Surface Material Choice, Environmental Considerations and Work Schedules for a Motorway widening project.
Justification of road choice Highway Construction for M1 Widening For the widening of the M1 motorway, a flexible pavement road construction will be used. The materials used in the surface course to assist with noise reduction will consist of a bituminous mixture of bitumen and pervious macadam (porous asphalt). Flexible road construction has been selected rather than rigid for the following reasons: Congestion, Construction & Maintenance * Flexible pavements can be quickly constructed and maintained, where rigid pavements require frequent joint maintenance. * They can also be maintained a lane at a time or with short-term road closures * Therefore, flexible pavements reduce congestion during maintenance and construction (Hunter, 1994) Reflection * Open graded asphalts particularly offer significant reductions in road surface glare and assist in making line markings stand out in contrast to the road. (Hunter, 1994) Environmental Impact * The bitumen used in flexible pavements does not release greenhouse gas * The material used in flexible pavements may be reused and recycled. There is no recycling of rigid pavement, it has to be hauled off and dumped somewhere. * When the wearing course begins deteriorate, this layer can be removed and returned to an asphalt plant and combined with new material to be used in another road project * The production methods
Final Control Element. FCE may be referred as actuator such as valve, gate, motor or relay. It enables an operator of a plant to achieve a desired process variable
CHAPTER 1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY A final control element (FCE) is a mechanical device that changes a process physically which in response to the change the setpoint of the process control system. It is driven by a controller to carried out its control mechanism and are located in the process line. There are great differences between the FCEs where their accessories that cause each of them to have their own characteristics of function to adapt to a particular process dynamic. In designing a control system, two of the most essential characteristics that must be take into account are linearity and the speed of response. If a FCE is nonlinear, it will affect the stability of the system as the linearity of the process does. FCE may be referred as actuator such as valve, gate, motor or relay. It enables an operator of a plant to achieve a desired process variable output by manipulated the setpoint of the process variable. In other words the valve must move to a certain position that represented by the value of controller. The faster and more accurate the valve follow the dictates the better the performance of the valve. In past, FCE is functioned together with electric actuator and a squirrel-cage motor, which they are suffered from several operation limitations. The commonly used of pneumatic actuators suffer from overshot performance and high maintenance costs. The insufficient

The technology used in blu-ray discs and players. The Blu-ray Disc enables the recording, rewriting and play back of up to 25 gigabytes (GB) of data on a single sided single layer 12cm CD/DVD size disc using a 405nm blue-violet laser.
FINAL YEAR SEMINAR THE REPORT on BLU-RAY DISCS Made By - Samarth Saxena 6EE - 067 Sec - 'B' ABSTRACT Blu-ray, also known as Blu-ray Disc (BD) is the name of a next-generation optical disc format jointly developed by the Blu-ray Disc Association (BDA), a group of leading consumer electronics and PC companies (including Apple, Dell, Hitachi, HP, JVC, LG, Mitsubishi, Panasonic, Pioneer, Philips, Samsung, Sharp, Sony, TDK and Thomson). The format was developed to enable recording, rewriting and playback of high-definition video (HD), as well as storing large amounts of data. The Blu-ray Disc using blue-violet laser achieves over 2-hour digital high definition video recording on a 12cm diameter CD/DVD size phase change optical disc. The Blu-ray Disc enables the recording, rewriting and play back of up to 25 gigabytes (GB) of data on a single sided single layer 12cm CD/DVD size disc using a 405nm blue-violet laser. By employing a short wavelength blue violet laser, the Blu-ray Disc successfully minimizes its beam spot size by making the numerical aperture (NA) on a field lens that converges the laser 0.85. This also allows for disc better readout and an increased recording density. The Blu-ray Disc's tracking pitch is reduced to 0.32um, almost half of that of a regular DVD, achieving up to 25 GB high-density recording on a single sided disc. As the Blu-ray Disc utilizes

Kuncup Berseri, Javanese Norms and the Globalization Petra Christian University English Department Faculty of Letters Surabaya Indonesia Abstract Every Indonesian citizen, including young generation, will be engaged with the effects of globalization. Teachers, therefore, are responsible for preparing the students to grasp with the positive effects and to cope with the negative ones during such era in order to survive the globalization. One of the negative effects is the degradation of local norms. Introduction to Gender Studies, one of the courses offered to all students of Petra Christian University, often discusses the works of literature in relation to Javanese norms, One of them is Kuncup Berseri, written by Nh. Dini. The question arises is "How the Javanese norms in Kuncup Berseri can effectively be used to materialize the students as the future generation so that they are ready for globalization?" Defined as the process of embracing whole parts of the world, the discussion connects the struggle of the main female character with the process of globalization by involving the role of the principles of feminism and the norms of Javanese culture. In Kuncup Berseri, it is obvious that the Javanese norms Toto Urip, Toto Kromo and Toto Laku, play an important role in the life of the main female character who is Javanese. Those norms which encourage the main female

Anlise e Desenvolvimento de Filtros Digitais Adaptativos para Imagens Mdicas
Projeto de Iniciação Científica RELATÓRIO PARCIAL Análise e Desenvolvimento de Filtros Digitais Adaptativos para Imagens Médicas Bolsista: Maria Luísa Cantadori Orientador: Sérgio Shiguemi Furuie Introdução As imagens médicas são muito importantes para o diagnóstico e tratamento de diversas doenças. No entanto, há vários tipos de ruídos que causam a degradação dessas imagens, que dependem do seu processo de formação e dificultam um diagnóstico preciso. Como exemplo, tem-se: ruído térmico dos sensores, ruído de dispositivos eletrônicos, ruído estatístico de emissão radioativa (Poisson), interferência de ondas mecânicas (speckle) e não-homogeneidade de sensibilidade dos transdutores. Todos eles afetam a precisão e a qualidade de imagens de Raio-X (e Tomografia Computadorizada), Medicina Nuclear e Ultra-Som. Portanto, é necessário que as análises e segmentações desse tipo de imagem sejam precedidas por pré-processamentos que levem em conta a natureza das degradações, mas mantenham as características essenciais das imagens. Objetivos Este projeto objetiva desenvolver e analisar diversos filtros digitais adaptativos para melhorar a relação sinal-ruído de imagens de diversas modalidades médicas, em especial imagens de Medicina Nuclear e Ecocardiografia, de modo a permitir segmentações e quantificações de estruturas de

Mobile phone Jammer. A GSM Jammer is a device that transmit signal on the same frequency at which the GSM system operates, the jamming success when the mobile phones in the area where the jammer is located are disabled.
INTRODUCTION . INTRODUCTION A GSM Jammer is a device that transmit signal on the same frequency at which the GSM system operates, the jamming success when the mobile phones in the area where the jammer is located are disabled. Communication jamming devices were first developed and used by military. Where tactical commanders use RF communications to exercise control of their forces, an enemy has interest in those communications. This interest comes from the fundamental area of denying the successful transport of the information from the sender to the receiver. Nowadays the mobile jammer devices are becoming civilian products rather than electronic warfare devices, since with the increasing number of the mobile phone users the need to disable mobile phones in specific places where the ringing of cell phone would be disruptive has increased. These places include worship places, university lecture rooms, libraries, concert halls, meeting rooms, and other places where silence is appreciated. OPERATION 2. OPERATION Jamming devices overpower the cell phone by transmitting a signal on the same frequency as the cell phone and at a high enough power that the two signals collide and cancel each other out. Cell phones are designed to add power if they experience low-level interference, so the jammer must recognize and match the power increase from the phone. Cell phones are
