A data acquisition system is transmitting electrical, water flow, and environmental data in real time and can be viewed on a web browser. The pump does not require an inverter and instead operates as a constant-current device, meaning that the power is linearly proportional to the number of panels connected in series. This presentation provides the actual electrical performance of the system and compares that to the optimal flow of water for a various numbers of panels and environmental conditions. Up until now these electrical and flow characteristics have not been available, yet are critical for sizing panels to this and similar systems. The presenters will offer some guidelines for sizing these solar water systems in the future.","PeriodicalId":74562,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings.

A typical bCPAP circuit consists of a source of air with a blender that adjusts its oxygen concentration, a nasal interface that delivers the gas to the patient, and a water reservoir that generates pressure. The nasal interface and water reservoir can be sourced at low cost, but all existing blenders are high cost and require either compressed medical air (typically unavailable in low resource settings) or electricity, which can be unreliable in these settings. Oxygen is often the only pressurized gas available. Therefore, some improvised devices will give the patient pure oxygen, which is harmful to neonates' eyes, lungs, and brain. We aimed to create an ultra-low-cost, high quality bCPAP system that overcomes these barriers to scale.","PeriodicalId":74562,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings.

Traditional medical anatomy education has relied on printed anatomical atlases, in-person lectures, and anatomical dissection. This traditional approach underserves populations in need due to high cost, lack of availability of materials, and a limited of trained educators. Open and free online anatomical atlases developed by an international community of experts help remedy these shortcomings, more fully addressing the sustainable development goals of quality education and good health at a global scale. We have developed a web application, the <i>Atlas Assembly Tool</i>, that assists medical professionals in assembling atlases for open dissemination throughout the world. Our tool aims to complement existing open source medical projects such as 3D Slicer and the Open Anatomy Browser to provide a pipeline from original medical image data to web-browsable atlases suitable for medical education.

The primary objective of these seventeen sustainable development goals, also known as global goals, is to obtain an inclusive and safe global environment for the people to enjoy sustainable peace and harmony in their communities. This study focuses on forty randomly selected countries from all over the world and categorized them into four groups based on the income level identified by the World Bank to determine the level sanitation practices based on population growth, educational attainment, and GDP growth [2]–[9]. The income level is defined by the gross income level per capita for each country and World Bank determines a benchmark to group these countries. The three primary objectives of this study are to explore, understand, and analyze the impact of urban population growth, the current economy, and educational attainment on the practice of using basic sanitation service among the selected countries' populations. Moreover, this study focuses on other key indicators that impact the basic access to sanitation and how that varies over the period of six years between 2010 to 2015 and offers evidence-based policy recommendations to improve the current practices among the population.","PeriodicalId":74562,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings.
