2. 1. Automation of Wheel-Loaders

   Author : Siddharth Dadhich; Ulf Bodin; Fredrik Sandin; Ulf Andersson; Jerker Delsing; Juha Röning; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Industriell elektronik; Industrial Electronics;

   Abstract : Automation and tele-remote operation of mobile earth moving machines is desired for safety and productivity reasons. With tele-operation and automation, operators can avoid harsh ergonomic conditions and hazardous environments with poor air quality, and the productivity can in principle be improved by saving the time required to commute to and from work areas.

4. 2. Instrumentation, Control and Automation in Anaerobic Digestion

   Author : Jing Liu; Bioteknik; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Bioteknik; Biotechnology; ICA; automation; control; monitoring; biosensor; instrumentation; anaerobic digestion; biogas;

   Abstract : Anaerobic digestion (AD) is a biochemical process in nature. It has been used to decompose organic waste in order to reduce environmental pollution, and to destroy pathogenic microorganisms for the protection of human and animal health. The process itself produces methane, which can then be used as an energy source. READ MORE

5. 3. Representing human-automation challenges

   Author : Jonas Andersson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; human-machine systems; control rooms; cognitive systems engineering; automation;

   Abstract : Automation technology is widely implemented in process control domains due to its benefits of improving efficiency and enhancing control. However, use of automation also introduces an often complex intermediary between the human and the controlled domain, which can obscure from the operator how system functioning is achieved.

6. 4. Industrial Robot Programming

   Author : Klas Nilsson; Institutionen för datavetenskap; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; control engineering; robotics; Automation; Software architecture.; Embedded systems; Open systems; Robot control; Industrial robots; Robot programming; Automatiska system; robotteknik; reglerteknik;

   Abstract : Industrial robots play a key role in manufacturing systems. Robots are distinguished from other types of machinery mainly on the basis of their programmability and ability to be adaptable to different tasks. READ MORE

7. 5. Borrowing the Bat's Ear for Automation - Ultrasonic Measurements in an Industrial Environment

   Author : Gunnar Lindstedt; Industriell elektroteknik och automation; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Automatiska system; control engineering; robotics; Automation; electrostatic transducer; piezoelectric transducer; echolocation; bat; automation; localization; recognition; geometry; distance; measurement; ultrasound; robotteknik; reglerteknik;

   Abstract : This work focuses on measurement principles based on ultrasound for applications in industrial automation. The measurements made are of geometric nature. The methods used are when possible based on experience and/or inspiration from the study of bats. READ MORE
