La Prévention Des Accidents Causés Par Le Monoxyde De Carbone Lors De L'Utilisation De Petits Équipements Actionnés Par Des Moteurs À Combustion Interne, Marc Baril, Charles Beaudry

États de la question, rapports d’expertise et revues de littérature

Un nombre important de cas d’intoxication au monoxyde de carbone (CO) se produit annuellement suite à l’utilisation en milieu de travail d’équipements de tous genres actionnés par des moteurs à combustion interne.

Provenant majoritairement de l’oxydation incomplète de combustibles ou de carburants lors de la combustion, le CO est émis dans des proportions variables dans les gaz d’échappement.

Le type de carburant ou combustible, le type de moteur, diesel, essence 2 ou 4 temps et le ratio air/carburant contribuent dans des proportions diverses aux concentrations de CO émis.

Au cours des dix dernières années plusieurs projets de recherche ont porté …

Polyurethane Foam Based Packing Media For Biofilters Removing Volatile Organic Compounds From Contaminated Air, Felipe A. Martinez

LSU Master's Theses

In recent years, biofiltration technology has gained acceptance worldwide as an economical and reliable air pollution control technology for treating gases contaminated by low concentrations of biodegradable volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Important applications include control of odors generated by wastewater treatment plants and control of VOC emissions from industrial sources. Although there have been many successful applications, several operational problems have been reported in the literature. These include difficulty in control over bed moisture content, high head loss caused by excessive biomass production, and inability to maintain removal efficiency during transient periods of high concentration loading. Use of a superior …

Microhabitat Use In An Assemblage Of Native And Introduced Stream Fishes In Wailoa Stream, Island Of Hawaii, Mark G. Mcrae

LSU Master's Theses

To date, most research on the ecology of Hawaiian stream fishes has taken place in the middle and upper reaches of streams. In the terminal reaches of streams in Hawaii, the ecological aspects of the relatively more diverse fish assemblages are largely unknown. This study investigated patterns of microhabitat use in an assemblage of native and introduced stream fishes living in the terminal reach of Wailoa Stream on the Island of Hawaii. Multivariate and univariate analyses of microhabitat data collected through underwater visual surveys indicated that differences in microhabitat preferences were an important factor in the structure of this assemblage. …

Landscape Architecture In El Salvador: A Case Study Of The Cerro Verde National Park, Stephen Price Wilson

LSU Master's Theses

In recent years, the published objectives of international aid organizations have called for the expertise of landscape architects. Projects with attention to sustainability, environment, and land use have become a major emphasis for many organizations. Landscape architecture, a profession which involves physical science, social science, humanities, art and land, is an appropriate profession to participate in aid projects. As a result of their unique training and experience, landscape architects have an unusual opportunity to make a substantial contribution in the planning, design and development of places for people in developing countries. This case study documents the activities and explains a …

Defending Courts: A Brief Rejoinder To Professors Fried And Rosenberg, David C. Vladeck

Georgetown Law Faculty Publications and Other Works

Harvard Professors David Rosenberg and Charles Fried have presented a provocative, sweeping critique of the theoretical foundations of tort liability that leaves virtually no aspect of our current tort system untouched, or perhaps more accurately, unscathed. Their article throws down the gauntlet to defenders of traditional tort law. For instance, Rosenberg and Fried take aim at the jury system, arguing that ex post liability rules created by juries are inefficient and should be replaced, whenever possible, by ex ante liability rules set by legislative bodies. And they attack the idea that compensation plays a legitimate role in structuring our tort …

Before And After Riparian Management: Sediment And Nutrient Exports From A Small Agricultural Catchment, Western Australia, Lucy Mckergow, David Weaver, I Prosser, R Grayson, A. E.G. Reed

Conference papers and presentations

Riparian vegetation can trap sediment and nutrients coming from hillslopes and reduce stream bank erosion. This study presents results from a 10 year stream monitoring program in a small agricultural catchment near Albany, Western Australia. In 1996, a 1.6 km stream reach was fenced, planted with eucalyptus species and managed separately from the adjacent paddocks. Stream flow, nutrient and sediment concentration data were collected at the downstream end of the fenced riparian area between 1991 and 2000, so there are data for the “before” and “after” riparian management periods. Suspended sediment concentrations fell dramatically following riparian management; the average event …

Computer Simulation Of Inspiratory Flow And Particle Deposition In Human Oral Airway, Xiaobo Zhu

Open Access Dissertations

In this dissertation, the inspiratory air flow and aerosol deposition in the human oral airway are simulated using a commercial computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software package, CFX. The dissertation consists of two parts: In the first part, a three-dimensional curvilinear body-fitted grid system was developed based on the geometry of an anatomically accurate human oral airway. The respiratory tract consists of oral cavity, oropharynx, larynx and upper trachea. Velocity profiles and pressure fields at various inspiratory flow rates observed during aerosol medicine therapy were simulated. Both laminar and turbulent models were employed depending on the Reynolds number defined at the …

Automated Alignment By Hybrid Video And 3-D Video Moiré With Both Conventional And Parallel Processing, Barbara Garita, Hector Gutierrez, Ildiko Laszlo, Joel H. Blatt

Aerospace, Physics, and Space Science Faculty Publications

A problem common to automated assembly in manufacturing or in automated docking of spacecraft is angular and lateral alignment of components. A hybrid video system utilizing both conventional imaging and 3-D video moiré has been developed to automatically align a test target with three translational and two rotational degrees of freedom. Alignment was demonstrated via computer controlled translation and rotation stages. The video moiré system is operated in an error map mode, in which a structurally illuminated reference surface is used to chromakey the image of an identical structurally illuminated alignment target. The output is a moiré image generated by …

Relationships Among Wine Prices, Ratings, Advertising, And Production: Examining A Giffen Good, Carol Miu

University Avenue Undergraduate Journal of Economics

It has become increasingly popular for statistics to be used in the prediction of wine prices. In fact, the prices of mature wines produced in the Bordeaux region of France have been accurately predicted by vintage growing-season characteristics. This paper analyzes the relationships among wine prices, ratings, advertising, and production, using data obtained from a wine ratings magazine, Wine Spectator. It presents a model of wine price based on information about production quantity, vintage, country of origin, and wine type. This paper then examines the scoring method of Wine Spectator by evaluating the effects of wine price on wine rating. …

Repetitive Strain Injury, Sultan T. Al-Otaibi

Neurosciences

Repetitive strain injury is a group of musculoskeletal disorders affecting muscles, tendons, nerves and blood vessels. These disorders could be attributed to occupational causes; however non-occupational causes should be excluded. The management of these cases required a multidisciplinary team approach.

Fingerprint Recognition Using Neural Networks, Eng Hoe Kennie Yeoh

Student Works (2000-2009)

Traditional methods of fingerprint verification uses either complicated feature detection algorithms that are not specific to each fingerprint, or compare two fingerprint images directly using image processing toots. The former involves very complicated calculations and tedious algorithms, and the latter tend to work poorly. In this paper it is described a new method which takes the middle ground. This paper studies the implementation of the Fast Fourier Transform and Artificial Neural Networks into the recognition of fingerprints. With tests conducted on the implementation of the Fourier Transform as a method of fingerprint feature extraction, the use of the Fourier Transform …
