In this paper, an active vibration control of the translating steel strip in the zinc galvanizing line is investigated. The unwanted vibrations of the strip deteriorate the uniformity of the deposited mass on the surfaces of the steel strip and the consumption of zinc. The translating steel strip is modelled as a moving belt equation by using Hamilton’s principle for the systems with changing m...

In January 1972 the newly created Environmental Protection Agency launched a photo documentary project, Documerica, to record the state of the environment across America. The project was modeled after the Department of Agriculture’s effort in the 1930s to document rural America during the Dust Bowl and the Great Depression. Called “The Photography Project,“ this earlier effort was led by Roy St...

This article describes the rapid development and deployment of healthcare information technologies (HIT) in response to COVID-19 from late January through March 2020 China. It outlines broad scope in-depth penetration various products services, as well impacts that these products/services had reaching mass population for effective dissemination, contact tracing, early diagnosis, virtual care, t...

Cadmium is a heavy metal that is often referred to as the metal of the 20th century. It is widely used in industry principally in galvanizing and electroplating, in batteries, in electrical conductors, in the manufacture of alloys, pigments, and plastics, and in the stabilization of phosphate fertilizers. As a byproduct of smelters, cadmium is a prevalent environmental contaminant. In the gener...

In this paper, a robust vibration control scheme of the axially moving steel strip in the zinc galvanizing line is considered. The boundary control force is applied to the strip through the two touch rolls connected to a hydraulic actuator. The mathematical model of the system, which consists of a partial differential equation describing the dynamics of the traveling steel strip and an ordinary...

Present review paper deals with extensive literature survey in exploring the potential of microbial biomass for the sequestering of toxic heavy metals from aquatic streams. Presently more than half billion people are underprivileged and deprived of fresh water, clean air, soil and pure food. Contamination of aquatic streams due to release of toxic metal ions is a stern issue demanding global co...

A simple mathematical model of an indirect-fired strip annealing furnace for real-time control and optimization purposes is developed. The considered furnace is part of a hot-dip galvanizing line and is used for continuous heat treatment of steel strips. The heat that is released during the combustion process inside the radiant tubes is calculated by means of steady-state mass and enthalpy bala...
