This document discusses leading edge erosion on wind turbine blades and a new protective coating called ProBlade. It summarizes that:
1) Leading edge erosion increases operation and maintenance costs and decreases annual energy production for wind turbines.
2) Testing shows ProBlade provides over 5 times better erosion resistance compared to polyurethane tape and over 50 times better than gel coat alone, with less aerodynamic impact.
3) ProBlade offers a significant improvement in leading edge protection that can help secure annual energy production as tip speeds and rainfall in turbine locations increase globally.

Presentation by Tom DeMint of Owens Corning at CAMX on October 15, 2014. As the wind power energy generation industry continues to develop, one of the main objectives of turbine rotor blade manufacturers is to reduce total energy production cost to align wind power with other energy sources. Energy produced by wind turbines is more widely available than ever before; nevertheless the industry is constantly looking for ways to further optimize the cost of energy (CoE) as one of its foremost goals. The turbine, together with its rotor blades, plays an essential role and is one of the major components of these machines in terms of cost. It generates the torque which drives the generator and is responsible for the range of conditions energy can be extracted from the available wind. Wind farms are now constructed and operate in challenging off-shore as well as on-shore locations with differing wind speed conditions. Glass fiber composite rotor blades have contributed greatly to the success of this sustainable energy source and have allowed the wind industry to make significant advances in recent times, especially in off-shore and in low-wind locations. One of the most important advances has been the progressive technology applied to the properties of glass fiber leading to the development of high modulus glass types for lighter composites offering greatly enhanced resistance to fatigue at an affordable cost. The technological advances in glass fiber properties has resulted in rotor blades of ever greater length - beyond 85m – dimensions deemed unreachable less than a decade ago. This presentationl highlights advances in the material properties of glass fiber to help designers and engineers conceive blades which are lighter yet with increased length, improved aerodynamic performance with resistance to higher, long-term fatigue loads which ultimately enables wind turbines to increase power yield and therefore reduce the cost of energy.
Maximizing efficiency of wind turbines is a vital consideration for operators, and managing erosion is a vital method to achieve this. Studies have consistently shown that erosion can lead to a loss in annual energy production (AEP) of up to 20% on severe cases. This figure is hard to ignore, and highlights the ROI benefits that can be achieved from paying close attention to erosion. The heart of the issue is the fact that wind blades come into contact with various elements in the air at rotation speeds up to 250 mph, leading to erosion in the form of pitting, gouging and delamination of the edge of the blade. This erosion not only compromises the integrity of the blade, but also impacts its aerodynamic efficiency, causing a significant loss in AEP. This loss can be compounded by the downtime necessary to make repairs to turbines, so owners have important motivations for protecting blades against erosion and making repairs quickly. In severe cases of erosion can even lead up to blade replacement which can get very expensive.
3M™ Wind Energy has extensive experience managing erosion, understanding the causes and effects of leading edge erosion, and bringing education to the industry on this problem. We have had decades of experience in understanding erosions and how to effectively prevent this.

Using Nanocoatings: Opportunities & Challenges for Medical DevicesCheryl Tulkoff
There is significant opportunity for improvements in contamination prevention, field performance and cost of medical devices through the use of biocompatible nanocoatings. To be successful using these coatings requires knowledge of the materials and processes on the market, the regulatory status, and the benefits versus risks.
This presentation will provide a clear understanding of the current state of nanocoating technology for medical devices and electronics. There has been an explosion in new coating technologies over the past 24 months. The use of nanocoatings has been driven by the desire for moisture proofing, providing an oxygen barrier ( a hermeticity option) and mitigating tin whiskers. Successful adoption of these coating technologies can lead to improved performance and market differentiation. Inappropriate adoption can drive higher failure rates, recalls and alienation of customers. Obtaining relevant reliability and quality information can be difficult. The information is often segmented for different markets; and, the focus is on the opportunities, not the risks. The primary information sources are either marketing material or confusing, scientific studies. Where is the practical advice?

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.

Courier management system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
It is now-a-days very important for the people to send or receive articles like imported furniture, electronic items, gifts, business goods and the like. People depend vastly on different transport systems which mostly use the manual way of receiving and delivering the articles. There is no way to track the articles till they are received and there is no way to let the customer know what happened in transit, once he booked some articles. In such a situation, we need a system which completely computerizes the cargo activities including time to time tracking of the articles sent. This need is fulfilled by Courier Management System software which is online software for the cargo management people that enables them to receive the goods from a source and send them to a required destination and track their status from time to time.

Foundation
Using field data and analyzing extreme sites and operating conditions
Fully correlated and validated leading edge erosion reliability models
17. Securing AEP is becoming harder with increasing tip speeds and markets evolving in harsher climates. Selecting the right leading edge protection is now more essential than ever before. Through field studies and theoretical understanding we now know what happens when water droplets collide with our blades. A new approach to experimental validation has assisted us in defining the correct Critical-to-Quality parameters for developing a reliable leading edge protection system. ProBlade offers a significant improvement in leading edge protection over known products when applied with LM’s proprietary application procedure. Furthermore, ProBlade has a clear aerodynamic advantage over PPT. ProBlade is running on selected prototype turbines to enable understanding of its life-time expectancy.
Conclusions
18. 3D scanning is employed to get an exact replicate of the surface after leading edge erosion. This methodology is an enabling technology for improved understanding of the failure mechanisms behind water droplet erosion. Drone inspections are beginning to offer easier access to high quality field inspection of blades at lower cost. This technology is a key enabler in establishing prevententive maintenance schemes . LM Wind Power have already encountered this technology and received impressive data.
