Traditional wet-chemical methods of determining elemental concentrations require pre-treatment and leave unwanted by-products. Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy is a technique that needs very little pre-treatment and produces no secondary waste. Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy is used in this work to determine sodium concentrations in dried pasture samples. Temperature correction on the gathered spectra was attempted using Boltzmann and Saha-Boltzmann plots. These methods failed to deliver satisfactory results. Different combinations of internal reference standards were used on the Na I 818.326 nm line which resulted in an improved correlation with sodium concentration. Partial least squares regression was used on the gathered spectra to find emission lines that vary with the sodium concentration. Calcium, sodium, potassium and an argon line demonstrated high predictor weights. The Na I 818.326 nm, Na I 819.482 nm, K I 693.876 nm and K I 691.108 nm lines exhibited large dependence on sodium concentration. Building a calibration curve of sodium to potassium emission line intensity versus sodium to potassium concentration in the samples produced a correlation of R2 = 0.918 and an error in prediction of 0.0254.","PeriodicalId":176657,"journal":{"name":"2015 6th International Conference on Automation, Robotics and Applications (ICARA)","volume":"132 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-04-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121542814","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Two of the paramount parameters in the design of arm robots are their weight and their strength efficiency. Our aim was to improve these two key parameters by using ABS plastic in the design and construction of a robotic arm structure with six degrees of freedom. ABS plastic is a highly stiff and hard material even at low temperatures, and it represents a low-cost solution compared to conventional materials such as aluminum and steel, hence it is widely used in many engineering applications. We studied the pieces of robotic arm CrustCrawler Pro-Series for supporting the mathematical and structural modeling for its redesigning, and inverse engineering and morphogenesis were used for studying and improving its structures. The resulting robotic arm was redesigned with focus on the mass reduction criteria in terms of as much substitution as possible by ABS plastic, and it was capable of holding a weight larger than its own, given that the suppressed weight can be used for improved fastening and holding. Other advantages can be obtained from the achieved mass reduction in other structure components, yielding improved efficiency.","PeriodicalId":176657,"journal":{"name":"2015 6th International Conference on Automation, Robotics and Applications (ICARA)","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-04-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134375756","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Visualising energy consumption, recommending energy conserving strategies and, controlling the appliances are some of the widely considered means to motivate and/or to help end-users at household to conserve energy. However, the conventional energy visualisation applications have certain drawbacks, such as lack of energy consumption location, lack of controlling appliances based on energy-saving recommendations, etc. To overcome those, this research would accomplish a simulation model by designing the following: (i) visualisation engine, to visualise household electricity consumption, (ii) recommendation engine, to provide energy-saving recommendations to the end-users, (iii) control engine, to control the household appliances based on the recommendations, and (iv) integrate visualisation, recommendation and control engines. This research uses a combination of user-centred design and iterative development methods. Successful implementation of these objectives would provide a significant contribution to this inter-disciplinary research area and would serve to achieve higher energy savings.","PeriodicalId":176657,"journal":{"name":"2015 6th International Conference on Automation, Robotics and Applications (ICARA)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-04-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130753379","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The implementation of this technique for motion control has been found to provide highly accurate trajectory tracking. Since the input to the Inverse Simulation is a time history of the desired response, then greater control over the position and orientation of the mobile robot can be achieved. There are many situations where the desired path of a mobile robot is known e.g. planetary rover navigation, factory or warehouse floor, bomb disposal. Typically the robot is either controlled remotely or runs an online controller to navigate the desired path. For a given path, a navigation system generates the desired drive parameters (i.e. heading and velocity) and the associated controllers drive the corresponding actuators. Traditionally the controllers are required to be tuned using knowledge of the limitations of the mobile robot. Inverse Simulation provides a means of generating the required control signals with no need for controller tuning. The use of Inverse Simulation is suitable in cases where the cost of the mobile robot or actuators is high, desired drive requirements need to be met or for situations where tight tolerances on the trajectory are to be achieved. In this paper the benefits of applying Inverse Simulation to the control of a mobile robot are discussed and appropriate results presented.","PeriodicalId":176657,"journal":{"name":"2015 6th International Conference on Automation, Robotics and Applications (ICARA)","volume":"122 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-04-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115466782","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
