The acceptance and commercial utilization of Compact Fluorescent Lamps (CFLs) and, more recently, Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) have grown significantly in the past five years. This change was fueled in part by the United States Congress 2007 legislative mandate to eliminate sales, and phase out the use, of conventional incandescent lighting beginning in 2012. This mandate has ultimately increased research into CFL and LED technologies. This poster demonstrates the use of a typical laboratory UV-Vis spectrophotometer, with no modification to the bench or software, to measure and characterize CFL and LED lamps. Using a customized accessory, spectral characteristics such as peak wavelength (λp), Full Width at Half Maximum (FWHM), centroid wavelength (λc), dominant wavelength, color, and color purity were readily determined for a variety of commercial CFLs and LEDs.

Noise figure limits for circular loop mr coils kumar john_hopkinsThiyagarajan K
This document analyzes noise figure limits for circular loop MR coils. It finds that as loop size decreases, coil noise increases relative to sample noise and can dominate SNR. Coil noise figure (NFcoil) is determined from the ratio of unloaded to loaded coil quality factors (Q). NFcoil values are provided for different field strengths. Small loops have better SNR for nearby regions but larger arrays have more noise. The limits to SNR gains from small arrays are determined by analyzing losses from conductors, capacitors, connections, eddy currents and samples. NFcoil enables optimizing coil/array design for SNR.

Optical amplifiers are used to compensate for attenuation losses in optical fibers over long transmission distances. The three main types of optical amplifiers are semiconductor optical amplifiers, fiber Raman amplifiers, and rare earth doped fiber amplifiers. Rare earth doped fiber amplifiers like erbium doped fiber amplifiers are particularly useful as they can provide wide bandwidth amplification in the 1.5 micron wavelength region with high efficiency. They have advantages such as high power transfer efficiency, wide gain bandwidth, and polarization independence. However, they also produce amplified spontaneous emission noise and have saturation effects at high powers.

Temperature and strain sensitivity of long period grating fiber sensor revieweSAT Journals
Abstract
Long period grating fibers are special class of fibers which are produced by periodic modulation of the refractive index of the core. This perturbation leads to forward guiding mode to couple with co propagating cladding modes depending on the phase matching condition. This coupling causes the cladding modes to attenuate during propagation in the fiber and leads to dips in the attenuation bands at discrete wavelengths in the transmission spectrum. These bands are shifted when the LPG is exposed to temperature, strain, refractive index changes in surrounding environment etc. This forms the basis of LPG sensor. The properties of LPG are modified in order to achieve the required sensitivity towards any measurands as per the applications. The performance of LPG by modifying the properties of LPG is reviewed.

This document describes research on fabricating micro electrodes for micro electrical discharge machining (Micro-EDM) and optimizing process parameters to maximize the machining rate (MR). Micro electrodes with high aspect ratios were fabricated in a copper block using tubular copper electrodes through electrical discharge drilling (EDD). An L9 orthogonal array was used to experiment with discharge current, pulse-on time, and pulse-off time as process parameters. Taguchi's approach was used to analyze the results and optimize the parameters for maximum MR. The optimal parameters predicted an MR of 4.86 mm/min, close to the experimental value of 4.95 mm/min. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) images showed the fabricated micro electrodes.
Review of Relay Processes and Design Optimization for Low Voltage OperationIRJET Journal
This document summarizes research on optimizing relay processes and designs to enable low voltage operation. It discusses how improved 5-mask and 7-mask fabrication processes can achieve more robust relays with smaller footprints and the ability to form interconnects for complex circuits.

IRJET - Evaluate the Residual Stress Formation of DP600 During RSWIRJET Journal
This study evaluated residual stress formation in DP600 dual phase steel sheets during resistance spot welding (RSW) at different pressures and currents. Samples of DP600 steel were resistance spot welded at pressures of 3.5, 4.5, and 5.5 bar and currents of 4, 6, and 8 kA. Microstructure, hardness, and residual stress of the welded samples were then examined. Results showed that hardness was highest in the weld region due to martensite formation from the high cooling rates of RSW. Hardness increased with higher clamping pressure and current. Residual stress measurements found compressive residual stresses in the specimens, with the highest stresses found in the 5 kA-6 bar samples.

1) Additive manufacturing (AM) opens revolutionary opportunities for high tech equipment development by enabling new and innovative mechatronic system designs.
2) AM can help address challenges for high tech equipment like improving accuracy, productivity, and reducing costs by providing ultimate design freedom and integration capabilities.
3) For high tech systems, AM enables new solutions like lightweight, integrated, and freeform designs which conventional manufacturing cannot achieve. AM moves manufacturing from "design for manufacturing" to "manufacturing for design."
Standardization of additive manufacturing is important for three reasons: 1) properties of additively manufactured parts are not consistent according to a standard, making industrial uptake impossible; 2) the fast evolution of additive manufacturing has outpaced traditional standardization procedures; and 3) over-regulation of existing industries makes it difficult for additive manufacturing to compete as a new technology. There are active standardization efforts occurring through various international standards organizations like ISO and CEN, as well as in the US, EU, and other countries to develop standards that will enable the quality control, data processing, materials, and other aspects needed for industrial
