In securing wheeled robot stability as well as minimum starting and braking time, it is important to ensure correct torque distribution as well as proper slope of braking and driving moments. In this paper, a correct movement distribution has been formulated, securing optimum adhesion coefficient and good transversal stability of a wheeled robot. A neural tuner has been proposed to secure the above properties, although most of the attention is attached to the SOM network application. If the delay of the torque application or torque release is not negligible, it is important to change the rising and falling slopes of the torque. The road/surface condition is also paramount in robot dynamic states control. As the road conditions may randomly change in time, application of the SOM network has been suggested in order to classify the actual road conditions. <p class="card-text"><strong>Keywords:</strong> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=slip%20control" title="slip control">slip control</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=SOM%20network" title=" SOM network"> SOM network</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=torque%20distribution" title=" torque distribution"> torque distribution</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=wheeled%20Robot" title=" wheeled Robot"> wheeled Robot</a> </p> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/123015/self-organizing-map-network-for-wheeled-robot-movement-optimization" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">Procedia</a> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/123015.pdf" target="_blank" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">PDF</a> <span class="bg-info text-light px-1 py-1 float-right rounded"> Downloads <span class="badge badge-light">126</span> </span> </div> </div> <div class="card paper-listing mb-3 mt-3"> <h5 class="card-header" style="font-size:.9rem"><span class="badge badge-info">6</span> Wheeled Robot Stable Braking Process under Asymmetric Traction Coefficients</h5> <div class="card-body"> <p class="card-text"><strong>Authors:</strong> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=Boguslaw%20Schreyer">Boguslaw Schreyer</a> </p> <p class="card-text"><strong>Abstract:</strong></p> During the wheeled robot’s braking process, the extra dynamic vertical forces act on all wheels: left, right, front or rear. Those forces are directed downward on the front wheels while directed upward on the rear wheels. In order to maximize the deceleration, therefore, minimize the braking time and braking distance, we need to calculate a correct torque distribution: the front braking torque should be increased, and rear torque should be decreased. At the same time, we need to provide better transversal stability. In a simple case of all adhesion coefficients being the same under all wheels, the torque distribution may secure the optimal (maximal) control of the robot braking process, securing the minimum braking distance and a minimum braking time. At the same time, the transversal stability is relatively good. At any time, we control the transversal acceleration. In the case of the transversal movement, we stop the braking process and re-apply braking torque after a defined period of time. If we correctly calculate the value of the torques, we may secure the traction coefficient under the front and rear wheels close to its maximum. Also, in order to provide an optimum braking control, we need to calculate the timing of the braking torque application and the timing of its release. The braking torques should be released shortly after the wheels passed a maximum traction coefficient (while a wheels’ slip increases) and applied again after the wheels pass a maximum of traction coefficient (while the slip decreases). The correct braking torque distribution secures the front and rear wheels, passing this maximum at the same time. It guarantees an optimum deceleration control, therefore, minimum braking time. In order to calculate a correct torque distribution, a control unit should receive the input signals of a rear torque value (which changes independently), the robot’s deceleration, and values of the vertical front and rear forces. In order to calculate the timing of torque application and torque release, more signals are needed: speed of the robot: angular speed, and angular deceleration of the wheels. In case of different adhesion coefficients under the left and right wheels, but the same under each pair of wheels- the same under right wheels and the same under left wheels, the Select-Low (SL) and select high (SH) methods are applied. The SL method is suggested if transversal stability is more important than braking efficiency. Often in the case of the robot, more important is braking efficiency; therefore, the SH method is applied with some control of the transversal stability. In the case that all adhesion coefficients are different under all wheels, the front-rear torque distribution is maintained as in all previous cases. However, the timing of the braking torque application and release is controlled by the rear wheels’ lowest adhesion coefficient. The Lagrange equations have been used to describe robot dynamics. Matlab has been used in order to simulate the process of wheeled robot braking, and in conclusion, the braking methods have been selected. <p class="card-text"><strong>Keywords:</strong> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=wheeled%20robots" title="wheeled robots">wheeled robots</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=braking" title=" braking"> braking</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=traction%20coefficient" title=" traction coefficient"> traction coefficient</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=asymmetric" title=" asymmetric"> asymmetric</a> </p> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/147985/wheeled-robot-stable-braking-process-under-asymmetric-traction-coefficients" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">Procedia</a> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/147985.pdf" target="_blank" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">PDF</a> <span class="bg-info text-light px-1 py-1 float-right rounded"> Downloads <span class="badge badge-light">165</span> </span> </div> </div> <div class="card paper-listing mb-3 mt-3"> <h5 class="card-header" style="font-size:.9rem"><span class="badge badge-info">5</span> Select-Low and Select-High Methods for the Wheeled Robot Dynamic States Control</h5> <div class="card-body"> <p class="card-text"><strong>Authors:</strong> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=Bogus%C5%82aw%20Schreyer">Bogusław Schreyer</a> </p> <p class="card-text"><strong>Abstract:</strong></p> The paper enquires on the two methods of the wheeled robot braking torque control. Those two methods are applied when the adhesion coefficient under left side wheels is different from the adhesion coefficient under the right side wheels. In case of the select-low (SL) method the braking torque on both wheels is controlled by the signals originating from the wheels on the side of the lower adhesion. In the select-high (SH) method the torque is controlled by the signals originating from the wheels on the side of the higher adhesion. The SL method is securing stable and secure robot behaviors during the braking process. However, the efficiency of this method is relatively low. The SH method is more efficient in terms of time and braking distance but in some situations may cause wheels blocking. It is important to monitor the velocity of all wheels and then take a decision about the braking torque distribution accordingly. In case of the SH method the braking torque slope may require significant decrease in order to avoid wheel blocking. <p class="card-text"><strong>Keywords:</strong> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=select-high" title="select-high">select-high</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=select-low" title=" select-low"> select-low</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=torque%20distribution" title=" torque distribution"> torque distribution</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=wheeled%20robots" title=" wheeled robots"> wheeled robots</a> </p> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/134319/select-low-and-select-high-methods-for-the-wheeled-robot-dynamic-states-control" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">Procedia</a> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/134319.pdf" target="_blank" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">PDF</a> <span class="bg-info text-light px-1 py-1 float-right rounded"> Downloads <span class="badge badge-light">119</span> </span> </div> </div> <div class="card paper-listing mb-3 mt-3"> <h5 class="card-header" style="font-size:.9rem"><span class="badge badge-info">4</span> Hemocompatible Thin-Film Materials Recreating the Structure of the Cell Niches with High Potential for Endothelialization</h5> <div class="card-body"> <p class="card-text"><strong>Authors:</strong> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=Roman%20Major">Roman Major</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=Klaudia%20Trembecka-%20Wojciga"> Klaudia Trembecka- Wojciga</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=Juergen%20Markus%20Lackner"> Juergen Markus Lackner</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=Boguslaw%20Major"> Boguslaw Major </a> </p> <p class="card-text"><strong>Abstract:</strong></p> The future and the development of science is therefore seen in interdisciplinary areas such as bio medical engineering.

A relatively new building product, LVB is currently employed in similar sizes and applications as dimensional lumber. This study describes the results of a 3D elastic Finite Element model for halfhole specimens when loaded in compression parallel-to-grain per ASTM 5764. The model simulates LVB fracture initiation due to shear stresses in the dowel joint and predicts displacement at failure validated through comparison with experimental results. The material fails at 1mm displacement due to in-plane shear stresses. The paper clarifies the complex interactive state of in-plane shear, tension perpendicular-to-grain, and compression parallel-to-grain stresses that form different distributions in the critical zone beneath the bolt hole for half-hole specimens. These findings are instrumental in understanding key factors and fundamental failure mechanisms that occur in LVB dowel connections to help devise safe standards and further LVB product adoption and design. <p class="card-text"><strong>Keywords:</strong> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=composite" title="composite">composite</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=dowel%20connection" title=" dowel connection"> dowel connection</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=embedment%20strength" title=" embedment strength"> embedment strength</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=failure%20behavior" title=" failure behavior"> failure behavior</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=finite%20element%20analysis" title=" finite element analysis"> finite element analysis</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=Moso%20bamboo" title=" Moso bamboo"> Moso bamboo</a> </p> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/69274/failure-analysis-of-laminated-veneer-bamboo-dowel-connections" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">Procedia</a> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/69274.pdf" target="_blank" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">PDF</a> <span class="bg-info text-light px-1 py-1 float-right rounded"> Downloads <span class="badge badge-light">266</span> </span> </div> </div> <div class="card paper-listing mb-3 mt-3"> <h5 class="card-header" style="font-size:.9rem"><span class="badge badge-info">2</span> Enhanced COVID-19 Pharmaceuticals and Microplastics Removal from Wastewater Using Hybrid Reactor System</h5> <div class="card-body"> <p class="card-text"><strong>Authors:</strong> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=Reda%20Dzingelevi%C4%8Dien%C4%97">Reda Dzingelevičienė</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=Vytautas%20Abromaitis"> Vytautas Abromaitis</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=Nerijus%20Dzingelevi%C4%8Dius"> Nerijus Dzingelevičius</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=K%C4%99stutis%20Baranauskis"> Kęstutis Baranauskis</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=Saulius%20Raugel%C4%97"> Saulius Raugelė</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=Malgorzata%20Mlynska-Szultka"> Malgorzata Mlynska-Szultka</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=Sergej%20Suzdalev"> Sergej Suzdalev</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=Reza%20Pashaei"> Reza Pashaei</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=Sajjad%20Abbasi"> Sajjad Abbasi</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=Boguslaw%20Buszewski"> Boguslaw Buszewski</a> </p> <p class="card-text"><strong>Abstract:</strong></p> A unique hybrid technology was developed for the removal of COVID-19 specific contaminants from wastewater. Reactor testing was performed using model water samples contaminated with COVID-19 pharmaceuticals and microplastics. Different hydraulic retention times, concentrations of pollutants and dissolved ozone were tested. Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry, solid phase extraction, surface area and porosity, analytical tools were used to monitor the treatment efficiency and remaining sorption capacity of the spent adsorbent. The combination of advanced oxidation and adsorption processes was found to be the most effective, with the highest 90-99% and 89-95% molnupiravir and microplastics contaminants removal efficiency from the model wastewater. The research has received funding from the European Regional Development Fund (project No 13.1.1-LMT-K-718-05-0014) under a grant agreement with the Research Council of Lithuania (LMTLT), and it was funded as part of the European Union’s measure in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. <p class="card-text"><strong>Keywords:</strong> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=adsorption" title="adsorption">adsorption</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=hybrid%20reactor%20system" title=" hybrid reactor system"> hybrid reactor system</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=pharmaceuticals-microplastics" title=" pharmaceuticals-microplastics"> pharmaceuticals-microplastics</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=wastewater" title=" wastewater"> wastewater</a> </p> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/164034/enhanced-covid-19-pharmaceuticals-and-microplastics-removal-from-wastewater-using-hybrid-reactor-system" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">Procedia</a> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/164034.pdf" target="_blank" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">PDF</a> <span class="bg-info text-light px-1 py-1 float-right rounded"> Downloads <span class="badge badge-light">85</span> </span> </div> </div> <div class="card paper-listing mb-3 mt-3"> <h5 class="card-header" style="font-size:.9rem"><span class="badge badge-info">1</span> The Impact of COVID-19 Waste on Aquatic Organisms: Nano/microplastics and Molnupiravir in Salmo trutta Embryos and Lervae</h5> <div class="card-body"> <p class="card-text"><strong>Authors:</strong> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=%C5%BDivil%C4%97%20Jurgel%C4%97n%C4%97">Živilė Jurgelėnė</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=Vitalijus%20Karabanovas"> Vitalijus Karabanovas</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=Augustas%20Morkv%C4%97nas"> Augustas Morkvėnas</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=Reda%20Dzingelevi%C4%8Dien%C4%97"> Reda Dzingelevičienė</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=Nerijus%20Dzingelevi%C4%8Dius"> Nerijus Dzingelevičius</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=Saulius%20Raugel%C4%97"> Saulius Raugelė</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=Boguslaw%20Buszewski"> Boguslaw Buszewski</a> </p> <p class="card-text"><strong>Abstract:</strong></p> The short- and long-term effects of COVID-19 antiviral drug molnupiravir and micro/nanoplastics on the early development of Salmo trutta were investigated using accumulation and exposure studies. Salmo trutta were used as standardized test organisms in toxicity studies of COVID-19 waste contaminants. The 2D/3D imaging was performed using confocal fluorescence spectral imaging microscopy to assess the uptake, bioaccumulation, and distribution of molnupiravir and micro/nanoplastics complex in live fish. Our study results demonstrated that molnupiravir may interact with a micro/nanoplastics and modify their spectroscopic parameters and toxicity to S. trutta embryos and larvae. The 0.2 µm size microplastics at a concentration of 10 mg/L were found to be stable in aqueous media than 0.02 µm, and 2 µm sizes polymeric particles. This study demonstrated that polymeric particles can adsorb molnupiravir that are present in mixtures and modify the accumulation of molnupiravir in Salmo trutta embryos and larvae. In addition, 2D/3D confocal fluorescence imaging showed that the single polymeric particle hardly accumulates and couldn't penetrate outer tissues of the tested organism. However, co-exposure micro/nanoplastics and molnupiravir could significantly enhance the polymeric particles capability of accumulating on surface tissues and penetrating surface tissue of fish in early development. Exposure to molnupiravir at 2 g/L concentration and co-exposure to micro/nanoplastics and molnupiravir did not bring about survival changes in in the early stages of Salmo trutta development, but we observed the reduction in heart rate and decrease in gill ventilation. The statistical analysis confirmed that micro/nanoplastics used in combination with molnupiravir enhance the toxicity of the latter micro/nanoplastics to embryos and larvae.
