Intelligent grain size profiling using neural network and application to sanding potential prediction in real time.
… the goal of dealing with likely sand problem. Sanding potential prediction in real time is considered an element of sand management strategy that involves the evaluation of risk of sand failure/production and the prediction of the likely sand rate and volume to facilitate optimum design of both …

Dust Control Usage: Strategic Technology Interventions
… PtD solutions include using vacuum sanders, wet sanding methods, pole sanding and using low dust joint compound in lieu of using personal protective equipment (PPE) as a primary form of exposure protection. Previous studies have determined barriers to adoption of current PtD solutions for dust …

The creation of fiberglass tanks and parts for autonomous underwater vehicle constant buoyancy power supply
… using a hot wire. Most parts were finished by sanding and using a filler coat, though one of the tanks was left unfilled for transparency. The tanks were machined, and the foam removed, and valve, sensor and rail mounts were made and attached.

Evaluation of Anti-Vibration Gloves in a Manufacturing Setting
… two hypotheses, vibration exposure during a sanding task will be examined. The third hypothesis tested is whether the subjects' perception of vibration reduction with the gloves matches the actual measured results. The null hypothesis is that there is no difference between subject perception …

Protocol for characterizing contaminant emissions during construction activities
… produced. The activities were: prepared dry wall sanding, metal cutting, water-damaged drywall removal, ceiling tile removal, carpet removal/installation, painting, air duct caulking/sealing. Sampling was performed near each activity, at some distance from the activity to estimate spreading …

Performance of Pressure Sensitive Adhesive Tapes In Wood Light-Frame Shear Walls
… sheathing, the effect of priming and surface sanding on adhesion, and the comparison of connections involving mechanical fasteners with those that utilized only adhesive tape or a combination of the two. It was found that an application pressure of 207 kPa (30 psi) or greater was needed to …

Identification and Reduction of the Alpha Background, From 238U and 232Th Decay Chains, in the DEAP-3600 Experiment.
… development and deployment of a custom designed sanding robot, aimed at reducing radiogenic surface contamination, which removed 506$\pm$50 $\mu$m of acrylic from the inner-most portion of the detector surface. Furthermore, different analysis tools were developed and used during different phases …

Instrument guide for MRI-guided percutaneous interventions
… as a proof of concept. It was found that sanding was required to fit the parts together because of overbuild in the stereolithography process. The parts functioned as designed and demonstrated that a probe could be angled about a remote pivot point. However, wear of the plastic parts …

Relevance of a positive latex specific IgE result in a non medical occupational setting
… contact dermatitis. The IWT factory manufactures sanding and grinding discs, traditionally a low latex exposure industry. Workers at this factory were introduced to latex gloves in 2004 to protect their hands for various reasons. One of the patient was referred with raised latex specific IgE. Our …

The role of competing tasks, level of knowledge, and personal prototypes in performance appraisal
… performing four different woodworking tasks (sanding, sawing, hammering and staining) and completed a recognition and performance appraisal measure after observation. It was expected that subjects, regardless of their level of knowledge, with a competing task to perform during observation …

An investigation into the sapstaining intrinsic properties of selected rubberwood (Hevea brasiliensis) clones
… was still present and pronounced after sanding, and was significantly (p<0.05) darker (absorbance: 56.5%) compared with wood infected by <i>A. niger </i>(38.24%) or <i>A. pullulans</i> (35.88%). Clone RRIM600 had significantly (p<0.05) higher mean percent darkness (41.85%) than clone …

The Effects of Synovial Fluid and Inflammatory Cells on Orthopaedic Implant Alloys
… that these features were the result of the sanding process could be excluded, as the “streaks” crossed in a different direction. Oxide levels were analyzed to detect corrosion for CoCrMo and TiAlV groups with EDS (Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectrometry) SE (Secondary Electron). The Disks + …

Futurity
“Beauty in things exists in the mind which contemplates them” —David Hume My art series, "Futurity" celebrates the richness of color, translucency, reflectivity, curvilinear geometry, and high craftsmanship. Within these low-relief works, dimension, depth, and mirrored luminosity arise from an …
