Aerial refueling involves transferring fuel from one aircraft, called the tanker, to another aircraft, called the receiver, during flight. There are two main refueling systems - probe-and-drogue and flying boom. Probe-and-drogue uses a drogue, or airborne refueling store, trailed behind the tanker that the receiver aircraft connects a probe to. The flying boom system uses a rigid telescoping tube operated by a boom operator on the tanker that inserts into the receiver aircraft. While the boom offers faster fuel transfer, it requires a dedicated operator and can only refuel one aircraft at a time. Aerial refueling allows aircraft to remain airborne longer, extending
Air traffic control (ATC) involves ground-based air traffic controllers directing aircraft both on the ground and in the air.

This case study describes an engineering firm, Matz, Childs and Associates, that was not winning public works contracts. The partner, Lester Matz, decided to start giving bribes and campaign contributions to the county executive, Mr. Agnew, to get closer to him and secure contracts. Matz began getting contracts after giving funds to Agnew's campaign. He continued this arrangement, even after Agnew was elected governor and vice president, and Matz received most public works contracts. However, in 1973 an investigation was launched into engineering firms in the area, which found Matz guilty of bribery. Mr. Agnew was fined $10,000 while Matz's firm was not prosecuted after cooperating

Design Compensator Using Automated PID Tuning for a water tank MIbrar4
A compensator is a form of controller designed to alter certain characteristics (such as gain/phase) of the
open-loop system. A compensator is a component in the control system and it is used to regulate another
system. ... In order to make the system behave as desired, it is necessary to redesign the system and add
a compensator, a device which compensates for the deficient performance of the original system.
Control system compensation is the strategy used by the control system designed to improve system
dynamic performance through the addition of dynamic elements in order to mitigate some of the
undesirable features of the control elements present in the system.

Given a transfer function of the form:
MATALB can be used to obtain a state-space representation of the transfer function with the following
command
It is important to note that the state space representation is not unique, i.e. there are many state-space
representations for the same system. The MATLAB command gives just one possible state-space
equation.
Compensator Design and parameters modification using Bode plot and root locusMIbrar4
Bode diagram design is an interactive graphical method of modifying a compensator to achieve a
specific open-loop response (loop shaping). To interactively shape the open-loop response using
Control System Designer, use the Bode Editor. In the editor, you can adjust the open-loop
bandwidth and design to gain and phase margin specifications.
To adjust the loop shape, you can add poles and zeros to your compensator and adjust their values
directly in the Bode Editor, or you can use the Compensator Editor. For more information, see Edit
Compensator Dynamics. For information on all the tuning methods available in Control System

WHAT IS MEMS ? MEMS Accelerometer MEMS Gyroscope MEMS MagnetometerMIbrar4
This document discusses the components of an inertial measurement unit (IMU), including MEMS accelerometers, gyroscopes, and magnetometers. It explains that MEMS sensors use very small microelectromechanical systems composed of silicon, polymers, metals or ceramics to measure acceleration, angular velocity, and magnetic fields. Accelerometers detect acceleration by measuring changes in capacitance caused by the movement of a mass on a spring. Gyroscopes measure angular rate using the Coriolis effect to induce displacement of a vibrating mass. Magnetometers function by detecting changes in electron flow and voltage caused by magnetic fields.
As radar users see ever increasing
complexity in signal and data
processing, it is tempting to
believe that quantum increases in
detection performance will
become available. However, the
laws of physics have not changed.
and fundamental detection
performance will only improve
slightly as small improvements are
squeezed out of one or other
section of a radar.
What is changing is the ability to
analyze the radar signal in
progressively more detail. High
speed processing is allowing the
use of principles which have long
been understood, but which have
not previously been incorporated
owing to technology limitations.
An airborne radar receives signals
which contain not only target
echoes, but additional inputs from
a variety of sources. These
Include; clutter from the main
radar beam and sidelobes; selfgenerated thermal noise: nondeliberate electronic interference;
and perhaps jamming. The first
objective of signal processing is to
reject the clutter, which may
include not only ground returns,
but rain and ground moving targets
as well. Jamming requires a book
in its own right and will not be
covered here. but suitable
processing techniques can be used
to weaken its effects.
1) On January 15, 2009, US Airways Flight 1549 struck a flock of birds shortly after takeoff from LaGuardia Airport, damaging both engines. Captain Chesley "Sully" Sullenberger was forced to land the Airbus A320 in the Hudson River, saving all 155 lives onboard.
2) An investigation by the NTSB initially suggested pilot error, as simulations showed the plane may have been able to land at nearby airports. However, when simulations included human factors like stress and decision time, they ended in crashes.
3) Further analysis confirmed the bird strike severely damaged the engines, validating Sullenberger's emergency water landing and cementing his status as a hero.
first We read about the first step in solving an ethical problem is to completely understand all of the issues involved. Once these issues are determined, frequently a solution to the problem becomes apparent. The issues involved in understanding ethical problems can be split into three categories: 1. Factual 2. Conceptual 3. Moral. These three categories help us to solve the case study on James who is a chemical engineer
The Disaster at Bhopal
On the night of December 2, 1984, a leak developed in a storage tank at a Union Carbide chemical plant in Bhopal, India. The tank contained 10,000 gallons of methyl isocyanate (MIC), a highly toxic chemical used in the manufacture of pesticides, such as Sevin. The leak sent a toxic cloud of gas over the surrounding slums of Bhopal, resulting in the death of over 2,000 people, and injuries to over 200,000 more.
Yes, it is true that the universal declaration of human rights stems out from the last sermon of the Holy Prophet (P.B.U.H).
From the above comparison table, we can see that every human right already has been defined in the last sermon of the Holy Prophet. Human Equality, Human Dignity, Integrity, Obedience to Rulers and Women's Rights these are Important Articles of Prophet (PBUH)’S Last Sermon on which the universal of human rights are declared
Because the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) in his last sermon fully explained the rights and duties of the people. In every way, the sermon can be considered the first and most comprehensive charter of human rights in history.
Although some points are not matched with the last sermon of the Holy Prophet (P.B.U.H). but it does not mean that The Universal Declaration of Human Rights is not stemmed out from the last sermon of the Holy Prophet (P.B.U.H). Because the remaining points are not parts of The Universal Declaration of Human Rights these points are specific for the Muslims which the Holy Prophet (P.B.U.H) define.
We read about the Bhopal Disaster In late 1984, a pressure-relief valve on a tank used to store methyl isocyanate (MIC) at a Union Carbide plant in Bhopal, India, accidentally opened. The causes of the accident had many contributing factors. Some two thousand people were killed and thousands more injured. Then we read about the framework. The ethical theory provides a framework for reaching solutions to ethical problems.
