An auto-collimator is an optical instrument that uses a collimator and telescope combined to measure small angular differences very sensitively and accurately. It works by projecting parallel light using a collimator and measuring the linear displacement of the reflected light when the reflector is tilted, which corresponds to twice the angle of tilt. The auto-collimator responds only to tilts of the reflector, and its focal length and aperture determine its measurement range and sensitivity. It can be used to measure straightness, flatness, angles, squareness, and parallelism.

CFD Simulation of By-pass Flow in a HRSG module by R&R Consult.pptxR&R Consult
CFD analysis is incredibly effective at solving mysteries and improving the performance of complex systems!
Here's a great example: At a large natural gas-fired power plant, where they use waste heat to generate steam and energy, they were puzzled that their boiler wasn't producing as much steam as expected.
R&R and Tetra Engineering Group Inc. were asked to solve the issue with reduced steam production.
An inspection had shown that a significant amount of hot flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes, where the heat was supposed to be transferred.
R&R Consult conducted a CFD analysis, which revealed that 6.3% of the flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes without transferring heat. The analysis also showed that the flue gas was instead being directed along the sides of the boiler and between the modules that were supposed to capture the heat. This was the cause of the reduced performance.
Based on our results, Tetra Engineering installed covering plates to reduce the bypass flow. This improved the boiler's performance and increased electricity production.
It is always satisfying when we can help solve complex challenges like this. Do your systems also need a check-up or optimization? Give us a call!

Hierarchical Digital Twin of a Naval Power SystemKerry Sado
A hierarchical digital twin of a Naval DC power system has been developed and experimentally verified. Similar to other state-of-the-art digital twins, this technology creates a digital replica of the physical system executed in real-time or faster, which can modify hardware controls. However, its advantage stems from distributing computational efforts by utilizing a hierarchical structure composed of lower-level digital twin blocks and a higher-level system digital twin. Each digital twin block is associated with a physical subsystem of the hardware and communicates with a singular system digital twin, which creates a system-level response. By extracting information from each level of the hierarchy, power system controls of the hardware were reconfigured autonomously. This hierarchical digital twin development offers several advantages over other digital twins, particularly in the field of naval power systems. The hierarchical structure allows for greater computational efficiency and scalability while the ability to autonomously reconfigure hardware controls offers increased flexibility and responsiveness. The hierarchical decomposition and models utilized were well aligned with the physical twin, as indicated by the maximum deviations between the developed digital twin hierarchy and the hardware.

Immunizing Image Classifiers Against Localized Adversary Attacksgerogepatton
This paper addresses the vulnerability of deep learning models, particularly convolutional neural networks
(CNN)s, to adversarial attacks and presents a proactive training technique designed to counter them. We
introduce a novel volumization algorithm, which transforms 2D images into 3D volumetric representations.
When combined with 3D convolution and deep curriculum learning optimization (CLO), itsignificantly improves
the immunity of models against localized universal attacks by up to 40%. We evaluate our proposed approach
using contemporary CNN architectures and the modified Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIFAR-10
and CIFAR-100) and ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Challenge (ILSVRC12) datasets, showcasing
accuracy improvements over previous techniques. The results indicate that the combination of the volumetric
input and curriculum learning holds significant promise for mitigating adversarial attacks without necessitating
adversary training.
2. Auto-collimator is an optical instrument used
for the measurement of small angular
differences.

very sensitive and accurate approach.
It is essentially an infinity telescope and a
collimator combined into one instrument.

When a beam of rays coming out from a monochromatic
source of light are made parallel by placing a collimating
lens(source should be at focus point of lens), and if these
parallel rays are made to fall on reflector ,the rays reflect
back and travels in the same path and converges at the
source through the lens (fig A).
If the reflector is tilted by an angle “theta” as shown (fig B)
, then the reflected rays makes an angle “2*theta”(twice
the angle theta) and converges at point O’.
OO’ = (2*theta)*(f)…….where f is focal length(distance
between source and lens).

• A cross line target graticule is positioned at the focal plane
of telescope objective. when the target graticule is
illuminated rays of light diverging from the intersection
point reach the objective via beam splitter and are
projected from objective as parallel . In this mode the
optical system works as collimator.
• A flat reflector placed in front of objective and normal to
the optical axis reflects parallel light back along their
original paths. They are then brought to focus in the plane
of target graticule and exactly coincident with its
intersection. A proportion of the returned light passes
straight through the beam splitter and the return image of
the target crossline is therefore visible through the
eyepiece thus operating as telescope focussed at infinity.
7. …
• If the reflector is tilted for an angle, the reflected rays
reflect twice the angle of tilt and are brought to focus in the
plane of the target graticule but linearly displaced from the
actual target by 2*(angle of tilt)*focal length.
• The linear displacement of the graticule image is measured
by an eyepiece graticule , optical micrometer or electronic
detector system , scaled directly in angular units.
• Auto-collimator responds only to reflector tilt.
• Focal length and the effective aperture are the factors
determines the basic sensitivity and angular measuring
range.
8. I. Photoelectric microptic auto-collimator
Micrometer adjustment is provided for setting ,but
coincidence of setting graticule and target image is
detected photo-electrically and shows null reading.
ii. Automatic position sensing auto-collimator
Angular displacement of the reflector is displayed on a
digital readout, eliminating any micrometer reading for
measuring . It is used for cramped positions.
iii. Microptic auto-collimator
In this a pair of target wires take place of the point light
source as it is not convenient to visualise the reflected
image of a point and then to measure the distance
