Abstract:
Automated medical technology is becoming an integral part of routine anesthetic practice. Automated technologies can improve patient safety, but may create new workflows with potentially surprising adverse consequences and cognitive errors that must be addressed before these technologies are adopted into clinical practice. Industries such as aviation and nuclear power have developed techniques to mitigate the unintended consequences of automation, including automation bias, skill loss, and system failures. In order to maximize the benefits of automated technology, clinicians should receive tra

Abstract:
AbstractCrucial in any surgery, the performance and the outcome depend not only on the surgeon’s skills and patient preparation but also on the setup of the operating room (OR) and positioning of the patients. In endo-laparoscopic surgery, we work with technology like cameras, monitors, insufflators, energy devices, and more. They are connected and interconnected by several cables and tubings. It is vital for patient’s and OR Staff’s safety that they be easily accessible in a fast and timely manner in case of any emergency or unexpected event. Avoid entangling of cables, or interaction between tubing and cables will make your surgery safer, elegant, and less stressful.

Abstract:
AbstractThe training of automated container gantry crane drivers faces with challenges, such as high safety risks, difficult training, and high learning cost. Therefore, we have designed an intelligent simulation system architecture for automated container quay cranes training based on embedded digital twin technology. This system can be directly embedded into the real quay crane remote control console without changing the original quay crane hardware equipment. It enables real-time switching between virtual quay crane remote control operation simulations and real gantry crane remote control operation, providing training for quay bridge drivers while also accounting for the real quay crane operation in time. To achieve seamless switching between real control and simulation training, we have designed two types of controllers: an automatic quay bridge remote control operation simulation system based on OPC UA communication protocol, and a real quay crane automation controller based on PLC control bus. Both controllers can communicate bidirectionally with the remote control room operating station PLC. Practical application at a wharf has demonstrated that our designed system offers high safety, real operation experience, and significant training effectiveness, effectively improving automated quay crane training outcomes, efficiency, and effectiveness.

Abstract:
AbstractOn the one hand, Industry 4.0 provides possibilities to address arising challenges such as globalisation, individualisation and shortening product lifecycles. On the other hand, it also increases changes and challenges in planning and operation processes of production systems.The paper discusses the changes in digital work in the areas of planning, operating and improving smart production systems. Current research approaches show that especially in planning processes and supportive tasks a high dynamic is evident, but also the work on the shop floor is changing. Automation technology and intelligent algorithms as a base for production planning and control up to factory-as-a-service concepts reduce operational room for manual actions, but require new digital planning, implementation and maintenance tasks. Furthermore, technologies like cobots enable new forms of flexible coexistence between human and machine in production systems. Due to the increasing complexity of products and production systems, conventional improvement approaches from the fields of Lean Management and Six Sigma are reaching their limits, as the analyses are often limited to simple relationships and correlations. Data science in the industrial environment enables new opportunities to analyse large volumes of data to identify multivariate patterns and correlations. All of this leads to new requirements for competences, roles and work organisation.

Abstract:
AbstractSpine surgery is based, nowadays, on the use of cutting-edge instruments that optimize the intervention processes in the operating room, with advantages that affect the patient himself. Among these, rapid prototyping is configured as a first-rate tool, thanks to its ability to detail the diagnostic treatment according to the specific pathological case under examination. An example of this technology is represented by the generation of a drilling template, to assist the surgeon in identifying the optimal direction of insertion of the pedicle screws, capable of significantly reduce intervention times, in addition to the inevitable exposure of the patient to ionizing radiation, to which he is subjected during a normal arthrodesis intervention procedure. The design of a drilling guide requires, however, a particular attention in identifying the undercuts present on the vertebral surface, those areas of the spinous process which, reported inside the cavity of the template, involve complications at the time of extraction. In parallel, it is vitally important to carry out an evaluation of its stability during its use. In this article, starting from the analysis of the interferences present during the insertion of the template, a semi-automatic correction model is proposed for the generation of a new profile of the same, which facilitates its extraction without causing injury to the vertebral regions involved from the contact with the mask.

Abstract:
The major challenges for deepwater riser systems are the higher external pressures, increased weights and tensions, larger dynamic loads and responses, potential for fatigue of the girth welds, severe flow assurance requirements, and the need to provide an economical design and installation. Result: This report provides PRCI with an updated version of the pipeline riser design and application guide. The focus of this report is on deepwater risers to both fixed and floating platforms, in sizes up to 24-in (610 mm) outside diameter, and in the range of water depths between 1,000 and 10,000 ft (3

Abstract:
Background Early detection and identification of faulty greenhouse operation is essential, if losses are to be minimized by taking immediate corrective actions. Automatic detection and identification would also free the greenhouse manager to tend to his other business. Original objectives The general objective was to develop a method, or methods, for the detection, identification and accommodation of faults in the greenhouse. More specific objectives were as follows: 1. Develop accurate systems models, which will enable the detection of small deviations from normal behavior (of sensors, contro

Abstract:
A laboratory testing program on rock salt specimens was performed using test conditions that are consistent with the stresses that are experienced near the surfaces of salt caverns during storage operation. The proposed work effort focuses on improving the methodology for defining the onset of dilation for rock salt. Geomechanical studies use dilation criteria to assess the potential for salt damage that can lead to spalling in the cavern roof and/or walls and subsequent damage to the cavern or hanging string. This constraint is often the one that limits the minimum gas pressure in a natural g

Opportunities and drivers for SME agribusinesses to reduce food loss in Africa and Asia. Commercial Agriculture for Smallholders and Agribusiness (CASA), 2023. http://dx.doi.org/10.1079/20240191175.

Abstract:
Climate change, conflict, and the COVID-19 pandemic and its aftermath have caused a sharp increase in food insecurity globally. Reducing food loss - a decrease in the quantity and/or quality of food that takes place from production through to processing - in places where food insecurity is most severe has the potential to be a win-win for food security, climate outcomes, and for commercially driven agribusinesses. This report reviews the common drivers of food loss in sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia, which include inadequate storage, lack of cold chain, and poor post-harvest and distribution
