Environment-Conscious Cutting System

Hydrogen Gas Cutting System

Recently, the introduction of advanced “Hydrogen Gas Cutting” was investigated but finally abandoned due to the problems of several accidents occurred, cost merit and safety. The facility is called “Hydrogen-Oxygen Mixture Gas Generation System” and stores the hydrogen detonating gas (when hydrogen and oxygen are mixed to 2:1 in volume ratio, the mixture gas violently explodes if ignited), so t...

Chrysanthemum Cutting Sticking Robot System

Cutting sticking operation is essential on a chrysanthemum production to enhance its productivity, since many cuttings can be obtained from one mother plant. Usually, human being manually sticks the cuttings to plug tray, however, it takes a lot of time and much labor, since the number of cuttings is said to be about 200 million in a district where yields the highest number of chrysanthemums in...

Environment Conscious Consumer Behaviour in an Emerging Economy

Conscious surgery: influence of the environment on patient anxiety.

AIMS This paper is a report of a study: (i) to investigate anxiety arising from the experience of the clinical environment during surgery under local/regional anaesthesia and (ii) to uncover the specific aspects patients find anxiety provoking and possibly dissuade them from opting for such anaesthesia. BACKGROUND Operating theatre staff have focused historically on conducting safe, efficient...

Fluid Dynamic Simulation for Cutting in Virtual Environment

In this paper, we introduce a 3D fluid dynamics solver for real-time interactions in virtual environment. We approach the solution of differential equations based on the cubic interpolated propagation (CIP) technique on GPU. Since the CIP combine the solution for fluid equations and their interactions with the environment together, the Navier-Stokes equation can be solved efficiently. Furthermo...
