Anfis Based Material Flow Rate Control System for Weigh Feeder Conveyor

Weight control system on the feeder conveyor determines the factor of the quality of products within an industry. The dynamics of the flow rate of material through the feeder conveyor weigh requires a good level of performance controllers. The base of current controllers such as FLC (Fuzzy Logic Controller) requires a certain amount of knowledge and expertise in its design that will make it dif...

Global Localization and Position Tracking of Automatic Guided Vehicles using passive RFID Technology

Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs) are used in warehouses, distribution centers and manufacturing plants in order to automate the internal material flow. Usually AGVs are designed to transport large and heavy transport units such as Euro-pallets or mesh pallets. Just-in-time inventory management and lean production requires small transportation units to enable one-piece-flow. A solution to meet t...

Supplementary material for: Mantle conveyor beneath the Tethyan collisional belt

The surface mechanical boundary conditions for most of our models are shear stress free (free slip), such that plate velocities are driven self-consistently by density contrasts within the mantle (Ricard and Vigny, 1989). The lithosphere in our models is defined rheologically as a relatively stiff layer from the surface to 100 km depth that is “broken” by weak zones of reduced viscosity, as in ...

Transport if loaded

Transport if loaded uclear transporters can be viewed as taxis that move cargo across the nuclear envelope. On page 649, Plafker et al. report that importin-11, a nuclear transport receptor , may be an especially selective cabbie. Importin-11 transports UbcM2, a ubiquitin (Ub)-conjugating enzyme, but it does so only when the enzyme is charged with a Ub at its active site. UbcM2 is an E2 enzyme,...
