Lifting plan for bypass stack installationShah Jalal
It is a big achievement for me all work done by as per my lifting plan. Especially thanks to Newaz, Rony and some our colleagues those who are assist me for make this lifting plan. I think it will be very helpful for this type of work.
Lever, simple machine consisting of a rigid bar that rotates about a fixed point, called a fulcrum. Levers affect the effort, or force, needed to do a certain amount of work, and are used to lift heavy objects. To move an object with a lever, force is applied to one end of the lever, and the object to be moved (referred to as the resistance or load) is usually located at the other end of the lever, with the fulcrum somewhere between the two. By varying the distances between the force and the fulcrum and between the load and the fulcrum, the amount of effort needed to move the load can be decreased, making the job easier.
Physicists classify the lever as one of the four simple machines used to do work. (The other three are the pulley, the wheel and axle, and the inclined plane.) Work is defined in physics as the result of a force, such as a person lifting, that moves an object over a distance. A common example of a lever is the seesaw. The human arm is also a lever, where the elbow is the fulcrum and the muscles apply the force.

An example of using FEA to improve a series of automotive wheel designs. Wheels must pass durability tests to be certified for use. This family did not pass the tests and a large investment had been made in tooling. The company did not want this investment to go to waste and assigned me the task to resolve the issue soon after hiring me. This is a brief outline of the changes made to improve the wheel such that all tests were passed. It should be noted that all work was done virtually and all tests were passes first time after tooling modifications.
In this Webinar we explore the details of actual case studies focusing on various signs that indicate if a particular support needs replaced or adjusted. The presentation also covers projects that brought on new standard designs and custom designs for specific applications. And lastly, it includes valuable additions and procedures that extend the typical life span of a pipe support.

We discuss the history of PHP and its frameworks to understand how this dependence has evolved. The focus will be on providing concrete tips and strategies to reduce reliance on these frameworks, based on real-world examples and practical considerations. The goal is to equip developers with the skills and knowledge to create more flexible and future-proof web applications. We'll explore the importance of maintaining autonomy in a rapidly changing tech landscape and how to make informed decisions in PHP development.
This talk is aimed at encouraging a more independent approach to using PHP frameworks, moving towards a more flexible and future-proof approach to PHP development.
GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!
Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object Calisthenics
First Robotics Manipulator Design
1. Brad Mello FIRST “Rack N’ Roll” Manipulator Design
2. Challenge The challenge of the 2007-2008 FIRST Robotics Competition game “Rack N’ Roll” was to score inflated inner tubes on posts sticking out from a rack in the middle of the field.
3. Problem Tubes could only be placed on the rack at a certain angle, or else they would fall off. The flat plate on the front of each post prevented tubes from falling off once placed, but made it harder to place them as well.
7. Prototyping The next step in our design process was to prototype ideas using basic materials. We used VEX materials to make a functioning prototype of my idea.
8. Pros Once inside the gripper, the tubes could be rotated as planned. Intake of tubes was smooth. Tubes did not change angle as they exited the gripper .
9. Cons Little contact surface area between tube and gripper. If jostled, the tube would fall and hang vertically from the gripper. VEX motors couldn’t demonstrate rotation of tubes well .
10. Next Step Prototype revisions were made Using alternative materials to contact tube Non-slip padding was attempted, but the padding would walk off of the rollers and we encountered many problems
11. Next Step (continued) Polyurethane Polycord® proved to have a high coefficient of friction on the inner tube. This thin belting would be able to run parallel with the tube, effectively keeping hold of the tube inside the gripper I made a prototype using this material along with a PVC plastic skeleton frame.
12. Power Car window motors were chosen to power polycord belts. Tubes could be precisely angled inside this new gripper Difficult to knock free Polycord was able to compress as tubes were brought in
13. Final Prototype This design was chosen by the team to be implemented into our final robot design.
17. A tube was able to slightly compress the polycord
18.
19. Benefits to Playing Style The best way to score on the rack was to have the tube at a 45 degree angle. This angle was best to avoid to small rubber house sticking The manipulator was able to rotate the tube to this angle no matter the position of the rest of the arm.
20. Playing Style (continued) Tubes could be scored at any of the three different post heights, and our gripper was able to adjust the angle of the tubes effectively at all three of these heights.
21. Positioning of the Tube The prime position for rotation of the tube was in the direct center of the gripper Problem: Difficult for drivers to determine exactly where tube sat in gripper during game play.
22. Solution A VEX bump sensor was added to very back of the gripper Program was written to override operator controls for a fraction of a second when bump sensor was touched (when tube was fully sucked in) The tube was backed out approximately two inches during this time to position it back in the center of the gripper
