Abstract:
Semantic fusion is a central requirement of many multimodal interfaces. Procedural methods like finite-state transducers and augmented transition networks have proven to be beneficial to implement semantic fusion. They are compliant with rapid development cycles that are common for the development of user interfaces, in contrast to machine-learning approaches that require time-costly training and optimization. We identify seven fundamental requirements for the implementation of semantic fusion: Action derivation, continuous feedback, context-sensitivity, temporal relation support, access to the interaction context, as well as the support of chronologically unsorted and probabilistic input. A subsequent analysis reveals, however, that there is currently no solution for fulfilling the latter two requirements. As the main contribution of this article, we thus present the Concurrent Cursor concept to compensate these shortcomings. In addition, we showcase a reference implementation, the Concurrent Augmented Transition Network (cATN), that validates the concept’s feasibility in a series of proof of concept demonstrations as well as through a comparative benchmark. The cATN fulfills all identified requirements and fills the lack amongst previous solutions. It supports the rapid prototyping of multimodal interfaces by means of five concrete traits: Its declarative nature, the recursiveness of the underlying transition network, the network abstraction constructs of its description language, the utilized semantic queries, and an abstraction layer for lexical information. Our reference implementation was and is used in various student projects, theses, as well as master-level courses. It is openly available and showcases that non-experts can effectively implement multimodal interfaces, even for non-trivial applications in mixed and virtual reality.

Abstract:
With the rapid development of the IT, project management information was focused widely. In this paper, an agile development model based on bidirectional iteration for Project Management Information System (PMIS) was set up, in which the 9 modules of project management can be developed concurrently. Among the different development phases of the modules, the vertical iteration was used, and among the different functions in one module, the horizontal iteration was used. Finally, the model was applied to the PMIS of the Caozhuang pumping station project, which illustrated that with the model the constantly changing demands of the user can be satisfied and the high quality PMIS can be developed in time.

Abstract:
Radiologically guided percutaneous abscess drainage (PAD) was first reported in 1977. Since this time, technological advances in imaging, improved catheter technology, and increased experience with the procedure have resulted in a tremendous expansion of the indications for PAD. This procedure currently has applications in nearly every organ system of the body. These changes have also contributed to improved success rates, with concurrent minimization of procedure-related complications. The advantages of PAD include simple, rapid performance; feasibility of bedside intensive care unit (ICU) performance; safety; avoidance of general anesthesia; and well-documented efficacy. This procedure has now become well entrenched in clinical medicine and probably ranks with the development of effective antibiotics as the most significant improvement in the treatment of abscesses in the past century. PAD is ideally suited for the treatment of critically ill ICU patients. We discuss technical developments over the past 15 years; general principles of patient preparation and catheters are also reviewed. Current applications of PAD in each organ system are discussed.

Abstract:
The tedious process of building an input model and of manual communication between CAD and Finite Element Analysis (FEA) significantly restricts the designers from using FEA, particularly in preliminary design. Most of the previous works concentrate on expediting this process by interfacing CAD and FEA. This paper propose full integration of FEA simulation code within a CAD system, thus several problems are avoided. The section-based FEA is used as better suited to early design. It requires, comparing to the 3-D FEA, development of additional CAD functions to extract appropriate sections from the CAD model. The proposed integrated system allows for rapid use of the FEA and unifies the design environment to avoid inconsistency. It provides a mechanism to specify the part orientation relative to the punch traveling direction to support tipping. It also extracts the geometrical data of a specified section to automatically build and store a FEA input model. The numerical simulation of the process can be then performed without exiting the CAD system. Both existing as well as newly developed CAD functions, needed for the proposed integration system, are presented. The feasibility and advantages of such integration is demonstrated on the developed prototype system.

Abstract:
We present MOMENTS, a newly developed software library lbr Monte Carlo simulation of semiconductor devices. This library uses object-oriented design principles to provide a flexible, extensible toolset that allows rapid development of a wide variety of Monte Carlo simulation applications. It allows concurrent simulation of multiple particle species (e.g. electrons and holes) with arbitrary user-defined interactions between species (e.g. generation – recombination and carrier – carrier scattering) in arbitrary geometries using either analytic or numerical bandstructure representations. The modular design allows virtually all simulation parameters to be freely varied across the simulation domain. MOMENTS also takes advantage of the parallelism inherent in the ensemble Monte Carlo approach, employing a scheme that can support a wide variety of parallel architectures with active load balancing. To demonstrate some of the library's capabilities, we also present preliminary results from a GaAs avalanche photodiode (APD) simulator based on MOMENTS.

Abstract:
Abstract Maintenance of aircraft is a complex process and therefore, in order to optimize the process, integrated information systems are increasingly used. Rapid development and wide availability of mobile devices equipped with powerful processors and with a wide range of modern communication connections suggests their high usability for enterprise IT systems. In the Department of Avionics and Air Armament of the Military University of Technology (WAT) an ERP-class (Enterprise Resource Planning) system, intended to support aircraft maintenance [4] has been designed and developed. The main concept of the system is to store the aircraft related and maintenance information in a central repository, i.e. in databases hosted on a central database server. This solution ensures concurrent availability of the data to a large group of authorized users. The key components of the system include the database server and client applications, which ensure access to centralized information resources, according to assigned user rights. The project involves development of client applications using three technologies: web, desktop and mobile one. Developed client applications have successfully passed integration tests perfomed using sample maintenance data. Currently works on user authorization security and wireless data security are under way.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Introduction Tele-critical care (TCC) has improved outcomes in civilian hospitals and military treatment facilities (MTFs). Tele-critical care has the potential to concurrently support MTFs and operational environments and could increase capacity and capability during mass casualty events. TCC services distributed across multiple hub sites may flexibly adapt to rapid changes in patient volume and complexity to fully optimize resources. Given the highly variable census in MTF intensive care units (ICU), the proposed TCC solution offers system resiliency and redundancy for garrison, operational, and mass casualty needs, while also maximizing return on investment for the Defense Health Agency. Materials and Methods The investigators piloted simultaneous TCC support to the MTF during three field exercises: (1) TCC concurrently monitored the ICU during a remote mass casualty exercise: the TCC physician monitored a high-risk ICU patient while the nurse monitored 24 simulated field casualties; (2) TCC concurrently monitored the garrison ICU and a remote military medical field exercise: the physician provided tele-mentoring during prolonged field care for a simulated casualty, and the nurse provided hospital ICU TCC; (3) the TCC nurse simultaneously monitored the ICU while providing reach-back support to field hospital nurses training in a simulation scenario. Results TCC proved feasible during multiple exercises with concurrent tele-mentoring to different care environments including physician and nurse alternating operational and hospital support roles, and an ICU nurse managing both simultaneously. ICU staff noted enhanced quality and safety of bedside care. Field exercise participants indicated TCC expanded multipatient monitoring during mass casualties and enhanced novice caregiver procedural capability and scope of patient complexity. Conclusions Tele-critical care can extend critical care services to anywhere at any time in support of garrison medicine, operational medicine, and mass casualty settings. An interoperable, flexibly staffed, and rapidly expandable TCC network must be further developed given the potential for large casualty volumes to overwhelm a single TCC provider with multiple duties. Lessons learned from development of this capability should have applicability for managing military and civilian mass casualty events.

Abstract:
Objective: To develop a rapid, simple and sensitive ultra-performance liquid chromatography and tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) method for quantitative estimation of atenolol (ATN) in rat plasma and its application to pharmacokinetic drug-herb interaction study.Methods: Simple precipitation method was used for the extraction of plasma samples with an aliquot of 25 μl plasma samples extracted using acetonitrile precipitation technique containing internal standard. Chromatographic separation was performed using Phenomenex, Kinetex, C18, 50 x 2.1 mm, 1.7µ by a gradient mixture of 0.1 % formic acid in acetonitrile and 10 mmol Ammonium formate as a mobile phase at the flow rate of 0.7 ml/min. The analyte was protonated in the positive electrospray ionization (ESI) interface and detected in multiple reactions monitoring (MRM) modes using the transition m/z 145.0-267.2.Results: The developed method had an advantage of fast chromatography run time of 1.8 min with improved sensitivity over existing methods and broader application to use for drug-herb or drug-drug interaction studies in rat pharmacokinetic. Calibration curves have been linear over the wide range of 4.93-5047.00 ng/ml in rat plasma which covers a wide range of plasma concentrations form study samples. ATN is widely used as a biomarker for determination of the drug-herb or drug-drug interactions studies, especially with the drugs that alter the permeability of another administered drug(s) and the developed method can be used to explore drug interaction studies. Especially to evaluate the role of concurrently administered drugs and its impact on permeability enhancer or absorption enhancer drugs following oral dose administration. This method will be significantly useful for the drug-herb pharmacokinetic interaction studies where we cannot quantify the herb because of multiple components in the hydro-alcoholic or aqueous extract of any herb, so choice remained is to quantify ATN and therefore it will be extremely helpful in such scenario.Conclusion: It was concluded that the developed UPLC-MS/MS method was sensitive linear and rapid; can be used for quantification of ATN in rat plasma for pharmacokinetic drug-herb interaction study.

Abstract:
Summary System designs that have only conduction cooling available, that must operate in harsh or challenging environments, present significant challenges to the system thermal engineer. A second thermal design challenge is continued miniaturization of semiconductor devices and increased functionality per square centimeter of semiconductor die, resulting in continued increases in device heat flux. Elimination of packaging materials allows more efficient heat transfer as thermal resistances from one material to another are reduced or designed out. When possible, concurrent elimination of package materials that have low bulk thermal conductivity and replacement with high thermal conductivity materials will improve heat transfer efficiency. Attachment of the resulting unpackaged semiconductor device can then be made directly to the circuit carrier; however, care must be taken regarding increases in potential for damage or failure due to mismatched coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE). Continuing reductions in die size that result in higher heat flux exacerbate this potential failure mechanism at the die-to-substrate level. This is further worsened in harsh environment (i.e., vibration, shock, high moisture, rapid power cycling) and/or high operating temperature conditions. For aerospace, military, geothermal, and other applications where increasingly high heat flux radio frequency (RF), microwave, and processor semiconductors are attached directly (with solders, silver sintering pastes, or other joining materials) to an organic or ceramic printed circuit card, efficient and rapid heat transfer becomes critical. These are frequently also applications where forced convection (air or liquid) may be unavailable to the system design engineer. One solution for thermal management design problems of this type has traditionally been the incorporation of one or more heavy copper layers within a complex multilayer printed circuit board (PCB). This solution, however, has come under increasing scrutiny in recent years due to concerns for weight (especially in airborne and space applications) and the potential for severe CTE mismatch between semiconductor die materials with relatively low thermal expansion values and the relatively very high value of copper. Therefore, development of CTE-matched alternative materials to replace a heavy copper layer has been a focus for development activities. A suitable selection must, however, have a bulk thermal conductivity that is as close to that of copper as is practicable. Recent developments of a copper-graphite composite material in sheet form that can be employed in standardized PCB manufacturing processes are described in this presentation.

Abstract:
The development of information technology is continually evolving due to the need to improve the quality of human life. Quick and efficient search for the necessary information, the possibility of free and immediate access to a wide range of goods and services, entertainment applications for devices, etc. - these are convenient ways of the personal high-performance self-fulfilment. That is why, in recent years, there has been a tendency to the rapid increase in the use of Internet resources and media devices. Although, it is worth noting that the virtual fantasy environment can perform not only the useful part in the achievement of the success in the financial stability, in the educational and professional engagement, but it can also provoke an emotional attachment and concurrent dangerous psycho-physical diseases. Virtual addiction has five main types; they are as follows: gaming, a tendency to excessive spending through online resources (gambling, shopping on the Internet), viewing pornographic materials, activities on social networks, rampant information search and so on. Also, this pathological condition causes the neurobiological changes in the cerebrum. Virtual addiction is characterized by a kind of rebound syndrome with negative emotional colouring due to the appearance of the discomfort of varying severity against the background of the lack of access to the digital environment. One of the significant factors influencing the development of this condition is the escaping phenomenon. Escaping is formed on the basis of the negative processes of everyday life in the case when a person decides to engage in distracting activities from emotionally-traumatic irritants. In some cases, this method can be useful; however, the main threat of escaping in the context of the development of virtual addiction is the progression of personal difficulties, since the lack of timely solutions to critical situations can contribute to the strengthening of adverse life events. Taking into consideration that the problem of the pathological use of digital space and Internet networks is a relatively new area, researchers are still in the scientific and creative search for optimal methods for diagnosing and treating the above disorder. It creates a critical need for the development of high-quality research designs to obtain reliable results that will be conveniently implemented in the practice of health professionals (therapists, psychologists, psychotherapists, psychiatrists, etc.) That is why the present work provides an overview of current trends in the development of virtual dependence, taking into consideration impulse control disorders and such phenomenon as escaping.

Abstract:
La intenció d'aquest projecte de recerca és anar més enllà de l' aconseguit pels sistemes existents de selecció i comparació de processos de Prototipat Ràpid, mitjançant la introducció d'una nova metodologia que tingui com a únic fi la 'Fabricació Final' de components. El sistema desenvolupat incorpora algunes de les eines més recents del camp de Intel·ligència Artificial, de manera que sigui possible aconseguir una metodologia concurrent que inclogui:<br/> <br/>· Sistemes experts, que s'executen durant el procés de presa de decisions amb alternatives múltiples. Els sistemes experts utilitzen típicament estructures del tipus: IF-THEN-ELSE o CASE, de manera que les opcions puguin ser 'cribrades' especialment durant les primeres etapes de la selecció. <br/>· Lògica difusa per a la presa de decisions. Normalment en l'àmbit de la fabricació, alguns termes lingüístics o paràmetres de tipus qualitatiu són utilitzats per definir estats o propietats. Per exemple és comú trobar termes qualitatius com ara: 'bones propietats mecàniques "o" alta taxa d'absorbència', en lloc de xifres i números puntuals. Per tant és necessari comptar amb un mètode per traduir i gestionar aquesta informació. La lògica difusa ha estat adoptada com a mitjà per traduir termes d'ordre qualitatiu a informació quantitativa de manera que a partir d'aquestes dades es pugui construir un sistema de classificació i rànquing de processos.<br/>· Presa de decisions Multi-criteri, agrupació (sumatòria) i classificació. Durant la investigació es van provar diferents mètodes per a la classificació d'alternatives i selecció final a partir de vectors d'ordre quantitatiu amb pesos ponderats. Per a aquesta finalitat es va adoptar la metodologia proposada per Lan et al. (2005) el qual es descriu en el capítol 5 d'aquest treball. <br/>· Xarxes Neuronals Artificials. Aquestes han estat aplicades per a la modelització i simulació d'alguns processos de Fabricació Ràpida prèviament seleccionats. Per exemple, el procés de Sinteritzat Selectiu Làser es va aconseguir modelar utilitzant Xarxes Neuronals amb un algorisme de "backpropagation", prenent com a informació base, les dades proporcionades pel software propietari de l'equip. Aquesta xarxa neuronal simula una màquina de sinteritzat làser model DTM Vanguard, disponible a la FundacioCIM-UPC a Barcelona. D'altra banda el procés de Fusió selectiva per làser ha estat modelat també mitjançant Xarxes Neuronals a partir de l'equip Concep Laser M2, disponible al laboratori d'Enginyeria mecànica de la Universitat Catòlica de Lovaina, Bèlgica. Els models extrets d'aquestes simulacions mostren una estimació del temps total de fabricació menor al 10% la qual cosa representa una millora substancial respecte a mètodes d'estimació paramètrics. <br/>· Finalment s'ha utilitzat la tècnica de bases de dades relacionals per a la gestió i emmagatzematge d'informació sobre materials. Aquestes bases de dades han estat creades en Ms Access, que proporciona la facilitat d'accés, filtrat, graficació i presentació de la informació requerida. Aquesta informació pot ser extreta automàticament mitjançant trucades ODBC, executades des de l'entorn Matlab.<br/><br/><br/><br/>Per a il·lustrar el funcionament de les eines descrites en una forma integrada, s'ha optat per desenvolupar una aplicació pilot en Matlab, utilitzant alguns "Tool boxes" especialitzats com: Lògica difusa, Xarxes neuronals, Estadística, Utilitats de graficació, Creació d'interfície d'usuari (GUI), Bases de dades. El resultat d'aquesta integració és una aplicació pilot anomenada RMADS (Rapid Manufacturing Advice System), el qual compta amb una interfície gràfica d'usuari que es divideix en tres mòduls: <br/><br/>· Requeriments generals de disseny. Aquest mòdul analitza els paràmetres usualment definits en les especificacions inicials de Producte, per exemple: tipus de material, toleràncies, acabat superficial, complexitat geomètrica, etc. <br/>· Mòdul de costos. Aquest mòdul utilitza paràmetres d'entrada prèviament introduïts com: volum de peça, mida de lot i dimensions totals, per a realitzar càlculs mitjançant mètodes paramètrics i models basats en xarxes neuronals. El resultat és una estimació del cost per peça i també el cost estès per volums grans. <br/>· Selecció de materials. Aquest mòdul mostra la natura iterativa del procés de selecció de materials, a través de criteris de "filtratge" o selecció, de manera que a cada iteració el nombre d'opcions sigui limitat a un nombre raonable d'alternatives.<br>The intention of this research is to go beyond currently available systems for the assessment and selection of Rapid Prototyping processes, hence introducing a new methodology devoted to 'Manufacturing' applications. Specifically the system would include a number of state of the art artificial Intelligence techniques to comprise a fully concurrent methodology, namely:<br/>· Expert systems are included to aid in the decision making process with multiple alternatives. Expert systems typically use If-Then-Else or CASE structures so that the available options can be screened specially during the first selection stages.<br/>· Fuzzy logic for decision making. Usually in manufacturing, linguistic terms or qualitative parameters are used to define states of properties. For instance it is common to find terms such as 'Good mechanical properties' or 'High absortivity rates' therefore it is necessary to have a method to translate and manage such information. Fuzzy logic has been adopted as a means to translate qualitative terms to quantitative information.<br/>· Multi-criteria decision making, aggregation and ranking. Different methods for selecting and ranking alternatives were tested which allows the integration of quantitative vectors with weighting factors that reflect the user preferences. For this purpose the method proposed by Lan et al. (2005) has been adopted as discussed in Chapter 5.<br/>· Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) are being applied for the modelling and simulation of a number of Rapid Manufacturing Methods. Selective Laser Sintering has been modelled using a back propagation algorithm ANN taking as a basis the information provided by the machine software. The ANN simulates a DTM Vanguard SLS machine available at Fundacio CIM-UPC, Barcelona, while the Selective Laser Melting has been modelled with the parameters and settings used by the Concept Laser M2 machine available at the Mechanical Engineering Lab of the Catholic University of Leuven, Belgium. The extracted models exhibit a build-time prediction error rate lower than 10%, which is a significant improvement compared to conventional parametric methods.<br/>· Finally, relational databases have been applied for storing and handling materials information. These databases have been stored as Ms Access data which provides the ease to access, filter, screen and plot the required information. This data can be automatically called and extracted by means of an ODBC call deployed within the Matlab environment.<br/>In order to illustrate the functionality of the previous tools put together, a pilot application was designed in Matlab, making use of a number of specialized toolboxes namely: Fuzzy logic, Neural Network, Statistics, Plotting utilities, GUI builder, Database.<br/>The result is a prototype system with a graphic user interface divided in three modules: <br/>· General design requirements: which deals with those parameters usually defined in the product PDS, for instance: material type, tolerances, surface roughness, geometrical complexity, etc.<br/>· Costing module: which makes use of parametric cost estimation and ANN-based models to perform the calculation of cost per part, and for low volumes<br/>· Materials selection: Shows the iterative nature of materials selection through screening steps so that the range of suitable options is limited.

Abstract:
Principles of concurrent development are applied to the design of a small-scale device for converting natural gas or liquefied petroleum gas into hydrogen. The small hydrogen generator is intended for serial production for application in the production of industrial hydrogen, fueling stationary fuel cell power systems and refueling hydrogen-fueled fuel cell electric vehicles. The concurrent development process is contrasted with the traditional, linear development process for petrochemical systems and equipment, and the design is benchmarked against existing small hydrogen generators as well as industrial hydrogen production apparatus. A novel system and hardware design are described, and a single cycle of concurrent development is applied in the areas of catalyst development, thermodynamic optimization, and reactor modeling and design. The impact of applying concurrent development techniques is assessed through economic modeling, and directions for future development work are identified.<br>Ph. D.

Abstract:
In the medical field images obtained from high definition cameras and other medical imaging systems are an integral part of medical diagnosis. The analysis of these images are usually performed by the physicians who sometimes need to spend long hours reviewing the images before they are able to come up with a diagnosis and then decide on the course of action. In this dissertation we present a framework for a computer-aided analysis of medical imagery via the use of an expert system. While this problem has been discussed before, we will consider a system based on mobile devices. Since the release of the iPhone on April 2003, the popularity of mobile devices has increased rapidly and our lives have become more reliant on them. This popularity and the ease of development of mobile applications has now made it possible to perform on these devices many of the image analyses that previously required a personal computer. All of this has opened the door to a whole new set of possibilities and freed the physicians from their reliance on their desktop machines. The approach proposed in this dissertation aims to capitalize on these new found opportunities by providing a framework for analysis of medical images that physicians can utilize from their mobile devices thus remove their reliance on desktop computers. We also provide an expert system to aid in the analysis and advice on the selection of medical procedure. Finally, we also allow for other mobile applications to be developed by providing a generic mobile application development framework that allows for access of other applications into the mobile domain. In this dissertation we outline our work leading towards development of the proposed methodology and the remaining work needed to find a solution to the problem. In order to make this difficult problem tractable, we divide the problem into three parts: the development user interface modeling language and tooling, the creation of a game development modeling language and tooling, and the development of a generic mobile application framework. In order to make this problem more manageable, we will narrow down the initial scope to the hair transplant, and glaucoma domains.

Published Article<br>RP and recently RM have been key factors in the development of the manufacturing industry in assisting in the development of new products. Fortunately, the application of these technologies has been realised in the medical industry. Surgeons all over the world use physical models created from CT or MRI data using some sort of additive manufacturing. The fabrication of these models has exploded into a popular research area combining engineering, material and medical expertise. Long-term growth in the additive fabrication industry will come from designs that are difficult, time-consuming, costly, or impossible to produce using standard techniques. Growth will occur with advances in current additive processes which are coupled with breakthroughs in new materials. The applications of RP and RM are as diverse as the medical issues that arise. RM of custom design medical prostheses proves to be economically viable solution, not only because it is faster to produce but it gives the designer freedom of creation too. The paper discusses some interesting medical case studies.

Rather, distributed group support systems require new architectures if they are to support the same type of real-time, high-collaboration environments that traditional systems have. This dissertation describes the development of a server architecture and programming model to support the rapid application development of real-time, distributed, and collaborative applications. Since the efficiency, robustness, and scalability of these applications are handled by the server, complex applications can be developed in very short production cycles. Background literature presented in the dissertation includes a taxonomy of distributed networking and data sharing methods, models of dialog independence, and messaging methods. Many different prototype and real systems are presented, analyzed, and compared with the Collaborative Server in this dissertation. The Systems Development methodology is applied to this research domain. A prototype system-the “Collaborative Server”-is developed, including a unique data persistence and replication scheme based upon a central Property object. Properties are created in hierarchical trees to form the “scaffolding” for collaborative applications. Each Property governs a single value, or datum, and controls the access, replication, security, viewing, locking, and persistence of its value. Properties are layered with predefined or custom child indices. A new systems development methodology, based upon the Waterfall method but tailored for the Collaborative Server, is presented. The efficiency and effectiveness of this methodology is analyzed using a simulated example and two case studies. The research contribution of this dissertation is the Collaborative Server. The basis of this server is the Property concept, including the methodology changes it effects, the efficiencies and application stability it produces, and the specialized messaging system it allows. Required programmer knowledge is significantly reduced when applications are built upon the Collaborative Server. In addition, the presented examples and case studies show significant decreases in code size and in time-to-market for their respective applications.

Abstract:
AbstractAutomated precision assembly of e.g. optical systems requires development efforts in manifold domains, such as part feeding, handling, alignment, bonding and quality control. The use of systematic design procedure enables the rapid and complete development of new applications and use cases using existing equipment. Combined with modular equipment and subsystems, the use of a standardized design process significantly reduces development time and therefore costs. A generic methodology based on the functional decomposition of assembly task requirements and a coherent synthesis of functional process building blocks can be an answer to reduced process ramp-up time, more stable processes and enable concurrent engineering for novel tool and process development.

Abstract:
MEMS projects are well known for their lengthy development times, hindering a company’s ability to make MEMS product development profitable. This paper describes a three-pronged methodology for rapid development of a piezoelectric MEMS microphone, utilizing concurrent design and prototyping, leveraged process technology, and a modified version of Quality Function Deployment (QFD). Avago Technologies has produced more than 300 million Film Bulk Acoustic Resonator (FBAR) piezoelectric band pass filters. FBAR uses Aluminum Nitride (AlN) as the piezoelectric film. Volume production of FBAR makes Avago the world’s only high volume producer of thin-film AlN products. This high-volume FBAR production process was greatly leveraged to enable fast prototyping of piezoelectric MEMS microphones. The concurrent design concept of simultaneously iterating on technical theory, finite element modeling, and prototyping with confirmation from testing was employed as another means of enabling swift development progress. QFD helps designers utilize the ‘voice of the customer’ to determine which product specifications are the most essential, and has long been used as a successful design methodology in the heavy industrial and automotive industries [1]. QFD and most other design methodologies have rarely been applied to MEMS products [2]. The second phase of QFD was modified for better application to MEMS products. Both Phase I and Phase II of QFD were then employed to guide the development process, giving insight into which elements of the design to focus on, which design concepts had the most merit, and which potential applications were the best fit to the technology. The combined effect of these three methods was extremely rapid development, enabling prototyping of hundreds of design variations and brisk improvement of measured results during the first eight months of the program. Achieving technical results quickly while assessing potential applications can aid in identifying a fast path to market. The methods used in this case study can easily be generalized for application to other MEMS development programs, potentially enabling MEMS products to reach production more quickly and generate increased profitability through addressing applications that best fit the technology and design.

Abstract:
In order to survive in the modern market, manufacturing companies need to invest in Advanced Product Development Technologies (APDTs). The problem many companies face, however, is the huge variety of possible technologies available. Examples of these are Stereo Lithography Apparatus (SLA), Selective Laser Sintering (SLS), Fused Deposition Modelling (FDM), Virtual Prototyping and many others. A literature review revealed that there were many attempts at implementing decision support tools, for the selection of the most appropriate APDT for a particular application. These tools were limited in scope to a small range of technologies. Examples of this are the several attempts in the field of Rapid Prototyping. Furthermore the approaches which exist focus on the technical requirements only of the machine and very rarely take into consideration the needs of the manufacturing organization as a whole. Therefore as a result, there is a lack of decision support tools for selecting APDTs while considering the different Product Development (PD) stages. One area in which these APDTs excel is in the reduction of lead times to develop a product. Therefore the implementation of such technologies can potentially reduce the time-to-market of companies investing in them. The question which remains unanswered is: how does one choose the technology which will deliver the greatest improvement with regards to time-to-market? To address this question, this research developed a framework which allows stakeholders in the organization to select the most appropriate technology to reduce time-to-market for companies following the Integrated Product Development (IPD) model. This framework is based on their requirements and a structured approach. This paper presents the framework developed to this end, which was implemented in an Information and Communication Technology (ICT)-based prototype tool. The novelty of the proposed framework lies in the fact that it combines Multiple Attribute Decision Methods (MADM), more specifically Analytical Hierarchical Process (AHP) and Simple Additive Weighting (SAW) along with the IPD model and continuous improvement practices. The validity of the proposed ICT tool was evaluated qualitatively by stakeholders from different PD perspectives such as sales and marketing, product design and manufacturing. The evaluation results provide a degree of evidence that the proposed framework and ICT tool were effective at meeting the time-to-market shortcomings of current product development practices of companies.

Abstract:
Arnold Engineering Development Center (AEDC) has designed and built a high-speed data acquisition and processing system for real-time online dynamic data monitoring and analysis. The Computer Assisted Dynamic Data Monitoring and Analysis System (CADDMAS) provides 24 channels at high frequency and another 24 channels at low frequency for online real-time aeromechanical, vibration, and performance analysis of advanced turbo-engines and other systems. The system is primarily built around two different parallel processors and several PCs to demonstrate hardware independence and architecture scalability. These processors provide the computational power to display online and in real-time what can take from days to weeks using existing offline techniques. The CADDMAS provides online test direction and immediate hardcopy plots for critical parameters, all the while providing continuous health monitoring through parameter limit checking. Special in-house developed Front End Processors (FEP) sample the dynamic signals, perform anti-aliasing, signal transfer function correction, and bandlimit filtering to improve the accuracy of the time domain signal. A second in-house developed Numeric Processing Element (NPE) performs the FFT, threshold monitoring, and packetizes the data for rapid asynchronous access by the parallel network. Finally, the data are then formatted for display, hardcopy plotting, and cross-channel processing within the parallel network utilizing off-the-shelf hardware. The parallel network is a heterogeneous message-passing parallel pipeline configuration which permits easy scaling of the system. Advanced parallel processing scheduler/controller software has been adapted specifically for CADDMAS to allow quasi-dynamic instantiation of a variety of simultaneous data processing tasks concurrent with display and alarm monitoring functions without gapping the data. Although many applications of CADDMAS exist, this paper describes the features of CADDMAS, the development approach, and the application of CADDMAS for turbine engine aeromechanical testing.

Abstract:
This paper summarizes the techniques and methods available today to allow for significant improvements of existing and previously upgraded Gas Turbine fleets, while keeping time to market and investment to the absolute minimum. This allows for flexibility to react to market changes and to extend the utilization of the customer’s assets. The successful application of these techniques is described using the example of the latest service upgrade of Alstom’s GT13E2 heavy duty gas turbine also showing first validation results. In contrast to previous improvements, mostly focusing on an increase in power-output, this upgrade development followed a different strategy: As customers are demanding a reduction in Cost of Electricity, the focus this time was on increasing CC-efficiency and elongating service interval lengths. The design challenge has been to come up with an upgrade package, which limits the additional power-output while maximizing efficiency and lifetime at the same time. Limiting the additional power output is crucial to be retrofit-able into existing plants with a minimum in investment costs, as some plant components like Generators and Transformers, especially for previously upgraded units, may already be close to their capacity limits. The paper describes in detail how the upgrade scope and design concept has been derived based on customer input. Among other measures, it is demonstrated how the consequent application of 3D design methods, the utilization of state-of the art airfoil profiling and clearance optimization in combination with an optimized thermodynamic cycle have been used to maximize the component and GT efficiencies. Furthermore it is shown how development time and risks have been minimized by a consequent application of a combined concurrent design &amp; manufacturing approach and rapid prototyping methods for early design validation. Finally, short- and mid-term validation results after the first implementation and testing in spring 2012 are presented, confirming that the design targets have been met.

Doo, Johnny. Unsettled Issues Concerning eVTOL for Rapid-response, On-demand Firefighting. SAE International, 2021. http://dx.doi.org/10.4271/epr2021017.

Full text
Abstract:
Recent advancements of electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) aircraft have generated significant interest within and beyond the traditional aviation industry, and many novel applications have been identified and are in development. One promising application for these innovative systems is in firefighting, with eVTOL aircraft complementing current firefighting capabilities to help save lives and reduce fire-induced damages. With increased global occurrences and scales of wildfires—not to mention the issues firefighters face during urban and rural firefighting operations daily—eVTOL technology could offer timely, on-demand, and potentially cost-effective aerial mobility capabilities to counter these challenges. Early detection and suppression of wildfires could prevent many fires from becoming large-scale disasters. eVTOL aircraft may not have the capacity of larger aerial assets for firefighting, but targeted suppression, potentially in swarm operations, could be valuable. Most importantly, on-demand aerial extraction of firefighters can be a crucial benefit during wildfire control operations. Aerial firefighter dispatch from local fire stations or vertiports can result in more effective operations, and targeted aerial fire suppression and civilian extraction from high-rise buildings could enhance capabilities significantly. There are some challenges that need to be addressed before the identified capabilities and benefits are realized at scale, including the development of firefighting-specific eVTOL vehicles; sense and avoid capabilities in complex, smoke-inhibited environments; autonomous and remote operating capabilities; charging system compatibility and availability; operator and controller training; dynamic airspace management; and vehicle/fleet logistics and support. Acceptance from both the first-responder community and the general public is also critical for the successful implementation of these new capabilities. The purpose of this report is to identify the benefits and challenges of implementation, as well as some of the potential solutions. Based on the rapid development progress of eVTOL aircraft and infrastructures with proactive community engagement, it is envisioned that these challenges can be addressed soon. NOTE: SAE EDGE™ Research Reports are intended to identify and illuminate key issues in emerging, but still unsettled, technologies of interest to the mobility industry. The goal of SAE EDGE™ Research Reports is to stimulate discussion and work in the hope of promoting and speeding resolution of identified issues. These reports are not intended to resolve the challenges they identify or close any topic to further scrutiny.
