A Multi-channel System for Detecting Metal Connectors in Waste Wood-based Materials
نویسندگان
چکیده
Metal connectors in waste wood-based materials should be removed before reused. A multi-channel metal connector detecting system is presented, detecting the metal connectors in waste wood-based materials. It include three parts: a high precision sensor for detecting metal connectors in waste wood-based materials, a multi-channel data logging and processing system based on microcontroller unit, and a model for positioning the metal connectors in waste wood-based materials. The high precision sensor has a magnet and, Holzer element and a differential amplifier and peak detector circuit. The multi-channel data logging and processing system has a micro-controller unit, an 8-channel AD converter and some auxiliary circuits. The model shows the relationship between the positions of metal connectors with the signals from 8 sensors. The experimental results show that the maximal detecting height is 2.0cm for the 0.8х11mm nail, as well as 4.8cm for the 3.5×30mm nail and the position error between the real positions of the nails and those get from the model is less than 1cm. The system can meet the practical needs of the reusing waste wood-based materials.

Tests to Determine the Joint Stiffness and Resisting Moment Capacity of Joints in Timber-Framed Houses
Wind and earthquake disasters in the world often cause billions of dollars of damage to buildings, most of which is to non-engineered buildings-especially homes. Wood-frame homes use connectors which exhibit partial rotational rigidity at the member ends, making analytical solutions difficult. This is due to the lack of information about the complex behavior of the connections used in this type...
متن کاملSources of heavy metal contamination in Swedish wood waste used for combustion.
In this paper, wood waste (RWW) recovered for heat production in Sweden was studied. Previous research has concluded that RWW contains elevated amounts of heavy metals, causing environmental problems during waste management. This study extends previous work on RWW by analysing which pollution sources cause this contamination. Using existing data on the metal contents in various materials, and t...
متن کاملSemi-Blind Channel Estimation based on subspace modeling for Multi-user Massive MIMO system
Channel estimation is an essential task to fully exploit the advantages of the massive MIMO systems. In this paper, we propose a semi-blind downlink channel estimation method for massive MIMO system. We suggest a new modeling for the channel matrix subspace. Based on the low-rankness property, we have prposed an algorithm to estimate the channel matrix subspace. In the next step, using o...

An electro-optic tunable single and multi-channel optical filter based on one-dimensional defective photonic crystal (1DDPC) structure is proposed. A couple of externally tunable defects in arrangement of (AB)5D1(BA)D2(BA)5, where A and B are dielectric materials, D1 and D2 are the tunable defects are used. The defects are composed of the ferroelectric LiNbO3 crystals and two pairs of thin Ag l...
