Abstract: The design and construction of a multi-drink vending machine is the primary goal of this little project. This machine's function is to offer people a wide variety of goods, including water, drinks, coffee, tea, etc. A machine that can sell things is a vending machine.Different products are being produced in what is more akin to an automated process without the need for man handling that we typically see in busy cities. These systems are now accessible in some of the best-rated restaurants and hotels in India as well as MNCs. In most systems the operation are carried manually by the operator in which the billing and change making is carried out by the \sowner who running the shop or restaurant. There are strict requirements for interactive gadgets used in public settings, including user-friendly interfaces. This model's vending machine is made using plywood, fevicol gum, a DC motor, and other materials. batteries, etc.

Environmental regulations and sustainable developments are forcing industries to assess, optimize and improve their processes to minimize costs and increase the efficiency of industrial sustainability dimension. This effect is more evident in the food industries due to the high impact that this sector has on environmental and economical sustainability, considering the primary role of packaging systems, the huge water consumption both for the production and the cleaning processes or the energy utilization related to the treatment plant or to the raw material production. Thus, the aim of this study was to review the current state of soft drink supply chains with respect to industrial sustainability issues. For this reason, a comprehensive literature review was performed to understand what sustainable best practices and key performance indicators are largely applied to soft drink supply chains and then a comparison with two soft drink case studies was proposed to identify if there is a positive correlation between the literature and practical activities. The proposed case studies were thoroughly analyzed highlighting how the production process impacts on sustainability and pointing out potential best practices and key performance indicators. The key conclusion of this study is, on the one hand, to depict the current set of sustainable best practices and key performance indicators which companies performed according to the literature review and, therefore, revise the actual body of the literature, and, on the other hand, to figure out which of these best (or proper) practices and key performance indicators are also implemented in the real world, helping companies to make decisions.

Abstract Historians tend to assume that in pre-modern Europe people avoided the water, as too unsafe, risky and generally unhealthy to drink. This assumption is clearly flawed: early modern Europeans knew, through experience, which waters were ‘best’ and to take certain precautions when it came to the consumption of water. Town councils enacted legislation to ensure water quality as well as more pro-active measures to keep water sources clean. Extensive and expensive water works in many larger towns and the presence of water-carriers suggests a demand for drinking water. And yet the history of both water control measures and drinking practices before the onslaught of Asian cholera and the bacteriological revolution in the nineteenth century have yet to be written. As a contribution towards filling this gap, this study seeks to understand the radically changing nature of medical advice on water consumption between 1450 and 1750, and what it can tell us about the place of water in early modern society. To do this, we consider printed dietary regimens and guides to good health and long life, a successful, varied and changing genre. They offer privileged access to the circulation of knowledge regarding water, in the context of the everyday regulation of food and drink in the maintenance of health. We explain why water went from being considered ‘the vilest of beverages’ in the mid-fifteenth century, the consumption of which, though necessary, had to be carefully regulated, to a ‘universal medicine’ three hundred years later, able to prevent and cure disease. In the process, wine gave way to water as the preferred healthy drink—at least, for medical authors. We relate the medical advice to the different local conditions (such as river water quality), practices (use of cisterns, boiling or filtering) and fashions (cold-drinking) discussed in the medical literature. If water’s very banality means that it is often invisible in the written evidence, the regimens provide ample evidence of the importance of drinking water and of changing attitudes and practices over the course of the early modern period.

INTRODUCTION A developer who had chronic asthma as a child built the first LEED® (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) Platinum certified apartment complex in Idaho. He has also heard from two residents that their asthma no longer resulted in attacks due to eliminating triggers in the interior environment. Eight years and a dozen multifamily affordable housing projects later, the LEED consultant on these projects has gathered insight on best practices, lessons learned and strategies that result in resident, owner and project team satisfaction. Ten projects have achieved LEED Platinum certification (two more are still under construction, but are on track for Platinum), and the HERS (Home Energy Rating System) scores are as low as 48. Feedback has been collected on what works, what doesn't and what matters most: from low energy bills to living in a healthy home and not having asthma attacks. These projects debunk the assumptions that energy efficiency adds too much cost or that green homes are only for the wealthy.

The thirty journal articles dealing with the relationship between climate change and agriculture (the latter is treated in general, i.e., as an industry) and which have gained >1000 citations are thought to be sources of the most precious information on the noted relationship. They were published between 1994 and 2011. Many are authored by West European and North American experts. The most-cited articles are attributed to three major themes and eight particular topics, and the best-explored topic is the influence of climate change on agriculture. Moreover, they provide some essential information about the strong relation of both agriculture and climate change to energy transition. The general frame characterizing complex interactions of climate change and agriculture development is proposed on the basis of the most-cited works, but it needs further detail, improvement, and update. The considered articles are basic sources with historical importance.

Energy security is an international concern for all countries in the world, particularly, for the policymakers looking for the wellbeing of citizens. While proper methods to measure energy security without ignoring the different aspects and multidimensional interplay is necessary, the need for an objective evaluation with numerical indicators is of utmost importance. This research covers these gaps by providing a detailed numerical method to formulate an energy security index that is globally comprehensive, but also nationally applicable to all countries in the world. This implies to include all needed aspects and dimensions of energy security. Results of this research show the global performance of all countries in the world in energy security and the performance of these countries in each of the 15 dimensions that articulate energy security. Germany and the United States performed best in the world, when it comes to overall energy security levels, whereas the Central African Republic and Turkmenistan are on the lowest end of performance. Conclusions show that there is not a single way for development and enhancing energy security but rather different alternatives and options. Countries need to learn from each other to identify what works best for their context and implement these strategies in order to enhance energy security.

Improving the energy efficiency of electricity systems is important for lowering environmental damage and promoting sustainable growth. In recent years, reinforcement learning (RL) methods have become useful for finding the best ways to use energy in many areas. The point of this study is to look into how RL algorithms can be used to make electricity systems more energy efficient. The study looks into how RL algorithms can be used to make electricity systems more efficient by lowering waste, making the best use of energy, and maximizing energy use. The study suggests a new way to use RL methods to change things like power sharing, load scheduling, and resource allocation on the fly in order to keep system performance high while using as little energy as possible. Some important parts of the study method are creating RL models that work with electricity systems and their limitations, as well as coming up with the right payment functions to help people learn how to behave in ways that use less energy. Extensive models and real-world studies on sample electrical systems are used to test how well the suggested method works. According to the study's results, using RL algorithms can lead to big changes in how efficiently energy is used, with cuts in energy use running from [insert exact number range]. The study also shows how flexible and scalable RL-based solutions are when it comes to different system setups and operating scenarios. Overall, this study adds to the growing amount of research on energy efficiency by showing how RL algorithms can be used to solve difficult problems in electrical systems. Practical plans can be made to improve energy efficiency and promote sustainability in a wide range of businesses and uses based on what this study has taught us.

Distributed Power Generation and Energy Storage Systems (DPG-ESSs) are crucial to securing a local energy source. Both entities could enhance the operation of Smart Grids (SGs) by reducing Power Loss (PL), maintaining the voltage profile, and increasing Renewable Energy (RE) as a clean alternative to fossil fuel. However, determining the optimum size and location of different methodologies of DPG-ESS in the SG is essential to obtaining the most benefits and avoiding any negative impacts such as Quality of Power (QoP) and voltage fluctuation issues. This paper’s goal is to conduct comprehensive empirical studies and evaluate the best size and location for DPG-ESS in order to find out what problems it causes for SG modernization. Therefore, this paper presents explicit knowledge of decentralized power generation in SG based on integrating the DPG-ESS in terms of size and location with the help of Metaheuristic Optimization Algorithms (MOAs). This research also reviews rationalized cost-benefit considerations such as reliability, sensitivity, and security studies for Distribution Network (DN) planning. In order to determine results, various proposed works with algorithms and objectives are discussed. Other soft computing methods are also defined, and a comparison is drawn between many approaches adopted in DN planning.

AbstractThe use of competition and the associated increase in choice in health care is a popular reform model, adopted by many governments across the world. Yet it is also a hotly contested model, with opponents seeing it, at best, as a diversion of energy or a luxury and, at worst, as leading to health care inequality and waste. This paper subjects the use of competition in health care to scrutiny. It begins by examining the theoretical case and then argues that only by looking at evidence can we understand what works and when. The body of the paper examines the evidence for England. For 25 years the United Kingdom has been subject to a series of policy changes which exogenously introduced and then downplayed the use of competition in health care. This makes England a very useful test bed. The paper presents the UK reforms and then discusses the evidence of their impact, examining changes in outcomes, including quality, productivity and the effect on the distribution of health care resources across socio-economic groups. The final section reflects on what can be learnt from these findings.

The Malice of Herodotus can perhaps best be described as the world's earliest known book review. But it is much more than that, for in the course of 'correcting' with considerable vituperation what he saw as Herodotus' anti-Greek bias, Plutarch tells us much about his own attitude to writing history. So that together with Lucian's How to Write History, it forms a basic text for the study of Greek historiography. It is also perhaps the most revealing example of Plutarch's prose style with its rhetorical variety and energy and odd mixture of good and bad argument. But in citing lost works, Plutarch has preserved valuable fragments which don't exist elsewhere and need to be assessed by all students of the Persian Wars. The book presents Greek text with translation, introduction and commentary.

Abstract IN a competitive field, Socrates’ pronouncement that the philosopher practises dying and being dead (Phaedo 64 A 5-6) must rank as one of the most startling in all of Plato’s works. What does he mean by it? The following, at least, seems tolerably clear. Death is the release or separation of the soul from the body (64 c), so that one who practises death strives even in life to effect this separation to the greatest possible extent. Given that the soul is one’s true self, 1 the philosopher’s task is to keep his soul-i.e. himself-free from his body. This in turn seems to encompass two related forms of disengagement. Firstly, the philosopher avoids the snares of bodily indulgence. He has no interest in the pleasures of food, drink, sex, fine clothing, and so on (64 D-65 A). At best these are a matter of indifference to him, and at worst a positive distraction from the philosopher’s goal, which is the attainment of wisdom.

This chapter examines Edward Carpenter's utopian vision, and specifically his belief that the path to utopia would be blazed by what he called Uranians. Carpenter coined the term “Uranian,” or “Urning,” to describe the man-loving men and women-loving women who he believed were the advance guard in the march to utopia. According to Carpenter, Uranians constituted an “intermediate sex,” combining what he saw as the best of both genders: women's tender, loving nature and men's energy and capacity for action. Carpenter wrote a series of essays and books about intermediate sex and what he refers to as “homogenic love.” One of his major works was the 1883 poem “Towards Democracy.” This chapter first provides a background on Carpenter before discussing his utopianism, his religious and spiritual beliefs, his visit to Walt Whitman in America, and his views on homosexuality and socialism.

I remember with some precision when I began believing that there is nothing so complex that a reasonably intelligent person cannot comprehend it. It was a summer day, when I was 15 or 16, and my best friend, Ron Light, and I decided that we wanted to understand how a guitar amplifier works. We both played in a mediocre I96os-era garage band. While Ron went on to become a fairly accomplished guitarist, I was slowly learning that any talent I had didn't lie within the realm of music. Already the aspiring little scientist, I was able to learn enough of the logic of basic harmony theory to execute the mindlessly simple algorithms called bass riffs, and if pressed I could even fire off a bass solo, the dread of concertgoers everywhere. But my approach to the performance was purely intellectual. I didn't have rhythm, or maybe soul. Poring over the symbols on the circuit diagram of Ron's Fender Deluxe Reverb amplifier seemed infinitely more interesting than trying to read music. I wanted to know what that impressively convoluted blueprint really meant, how electricity flowing through the labyrinth of wires and components could cause the tiny vibration of a guitar string to be multiplied so many times that it rocked the walls of the living room, inciting the neighbors to call the police. This was still the era of the vacuum tube, before those glowing glass envelopes were replaced by coldly efficient transistors and microchips. Electronics was pretty simple to understand. I had already learned some basics from The Boys' Second Book of Radio and Electronics and the guide for the Boy Scout electricity merit badge (the colorful embroidered patch was decorated with a human fist clutching zigzag lightning bolts). In a typical circuit, there were resistors that, true to their calling, resisted electricity, pinching the flow of electrons. There were capacitors, also aptly named, that stored electrical charges. There were tightly wound coils of copper wire called inductors that would hold energy in the form of electromagnetic fields. Finally, there were the vacuum tubes themselves, mysterious pockets of illuminated nothingness inside of which the actual amplification took place.

Oahu has special needs and requirements when it comes to dealing with solid waste on the island. The City and County of Honolulu has successfully addressed this problem in the past and is working on solutions for the future. Five percent of the island’s electrical power has been generated reliably from the 2000 tons per day of waste processed by their H-POWER Waste-to-Energy Facility. The facility has been processing waste for nearly twenty years and the volume of refuse going to the landfill is reduced by 90 percent. Honolulu is considering the best solutions for the island’s waste for the coming years. Waste-to-energy works in partnership with recycling to reduce the island’s increasing waste volumes. Recycling programs are in place and additional recycling measures are being considered. Landfill space is limited and questions exist regarding the ongoing use of the existing landfill and what will happen when it is closed. In an island setting, some alternatives available to other areas such as long haul to distant landfills are not available to bridge solid waste issues. Therefore practical solutions must be found and implemented in a timely manner. A number of initiatives and plans are in development. Measures are underway to prepare the H-POWER facility for future emission requirements and operation for the next twenty years. Steps have been taken toward expansion of the existing facility. Permitting and negotiations with agencies and utilities are under way. This paper will explore and expand upon these issues showing how they are interrelated to one another.

In recent years, there has been an increasing amount of PEM (proton exchange membrane) fuel cell-related research conducted and subsequently published by universities and public institutions. While a good deal of this research has been useful for understanding the underlying fundamental aspects of fuel cell components and operation, much of it is not as useful for a group working on automotive applications as it could be. The reason for this is that in order to be put to practical use in an automotive application, the system being studied must meet certain constraints; satisfying targets for projected system costs, system efficiency, volumetric and gravimetric power densities (packaging), and operating conditions. For example, numerous recent publications show studies with PEM fuel cells designed and built such that limiting current density is achieved at 0.9 A/cm2 or lower, and voltages of 600 mV can only be achieved at current densities less than 0.6 A/cm2. This type of performance is sufficiently below what is required for commercial application, that any conclusions drawn from these works are difficult to extrapolate to a system of commercial automotive interest. The purpose of this article is to show, through use of engineering calculations and cost projections, what operating conditions and performance are required in a commercial automotive fuel cell application. In addition, best known (public domain) performance and corresponding conditions are given, along with Department of Energy Freedom Car targets, which can be used for state-of-the-art benchmarking. Also, reference is made to a university publication where performance (500 mV at 1.5 A/cm2) close to automotive application targets was achieved, and important aspects of their components and flow field geometry are highlighted. It is our hope that through this publication, further PEM fuel-cell related research can be directed toward the region of greatest interest for commercial, automotive application.

Abstract Backed by decades of successful field applications, polymer flooding represents a sustainable and proven recovery technique to increase production efficiency and extends the economic producing life of conventional oil resources. Providing improved mobility control and in-situ conformance effect, the increased swept oil volume results in decreased water production and related energy / CO2 requirements, and a sustained period of higher oil rate. A minimal satisfying quality of water is key to make the preparation and injection of a polymer solution efficient. It reduces the amount of maintenance required and issues on surface facilities, to preserve polymer integrity and injectivity over time. Those water quality requirements are the same as what should apply for a good water flooding injection program. On the production side, produced polymer viscosity and anionicity effects need to be taken into consideration. For further re-use, recirculation of produced water for injection or before water disposal, it is recommended to specially adapt the effluent treatment to prevent common process difficulties, like loss of separation efficiency, clogging or accumulation of unexpected material in tanks, pipes, etc. Standard treatment processes, potentially challenged with presence of polymer, are always divided into several steps (primary, secondary and tertiary/polishing) and include equipment solutions as well as oilfield chemicals. Among polishing technologies, multi-media filtration systems are very commonly used worldwide for deoiling and solid removal. In operation, Oil In Water (OIW) or solid particles become trapped in the media and the differential pressure across the bed increases. Periodically, a backwash is initiated to remove the solids and oil trapped in the bed. The works describes the evaluation of 7 different filtering medias at pilot scale for deoiling of produced water with different polymer and OIW concentrations. The medias are commercially available materials from several vendors with different granulometry, composition, shape, hardness or density. The main objective is to determine best operating conditions for the treatment of produced water, in systems with and without produced polymer, while maximizing the deoiling efficiency. The first objective is to evaluate the capacity of the medias to reach lowest OIW concentrations and to compare the performances to identify best medias for specific inlet conditions. The second objective is to better understand media behaviors during filtration and backwash sequences. The overall aim is to achieve the longest possible filtration sequences and to compare pressure drop evolutions to identify the best medias for specific inlet conditions. A third objective is to optimize the backwash sequences and to compare media fluidizations to maximize media recovery by minimizing media loss, water volume and pumping requirements. The study shows that there are optimal parameters in operation and specificities to take into consideration because of the produced polymer; eac media, with its own characteristics, having different behavior and being more or less sensitive to inlet OIW and polymer concentrations. The main impacts observed are on the pressure drop increase with time, on media fluidization during backwash and on the residual OIW concentration after treatment. The comparison of the data allows to find an optimized balance between performance (deoiling efficiency) and operation (filtration duration and backwash frequency). A good understanding of the fluid properties allows to anticipate the efficiency of a media filter and to maintain performances over time by adjusting operations: first with the selection of the optimal media to usethen, for a specific media, with: optimization of the filtration duration before backwashoptimization of the backwash regulation according to pressure drop behavioroptimization of the backwash flowrate for media fluidization

Product development has been approached by linear methods that apply to any design problem without concern of ambient variables. In this approach, we will find a new matrix method that can deliver a basic path in which the designer can begin his journey, but adaptable to accept ambient variables. Nikola Tesla in his book “The Strange Life of Nikola Tesla” (1914) told us: “Thus I have been led unconsciously to evolve what I consider a new method of materializing inventive concepts and ideas, which is radially opposite to the purely experimental and is in my opinion ever so much more expeditious and efficient. The moment one constructs a device to carry into practice a crude idea, he finds himself unavoidably engrossed with the details of the apparatus. As he goes on improving and reconstructing, his force of concentration diminishes and he loses sight of the great underlying principle. Results may be obtained, but always at the sacrifice of quality. My method is different. I do not rush into actual work. When I get an idea, I start at once building it up in my imagination. I change the construction, make improvements, and operate the device in my mind. It is immaterial to me whether I run my turbine in thought or test it in my shop. I even note if it is out of balance. There is no difference whatever; the results are the same. In this way, I can rapidly develop and perfect a conception without touching anything. When I have gone as far as to embody in the invention every possible improvement I can think of and see no fault anywhere, I put into concrete form this final product of my brain. Invariably my device works as I conceived that it should, and the experiment comes out exactly as I planned it. In twenty years, there has not been a single exception. Why should it be otherwise? Engineering, electrical and mechanical, is positive in results. There is scarcely a subject that cannot be examined beforehand, from the available theoretical and practical data.” Tesla’s approach to design tells us to base the creative energy in the conceptual design. For a designer to get the best results, the method suggests three steps: Preparation, Exploration, and Conceptual Design. In preparation, the designer must open his mind and learn how to handle his creative muscle, exploration will guide him thru the path of knowledge thru science, and technology, and when he has all the tools on hand will begin the conceptual design. Once a conceptual design is acquired with the details Tesla suggested, nearly anyone with modeling skills can make the detailed design. The aim of this work is to explain in detail the method which is proposed, and to show a testing of the method. The creativity test selected was the Creativity Styles Questionnaire-Revised (CSQ-R) applied to groups of students of engineering, and design schools which were confronted to a design challenge using this method, and to a control group who has never been in contact with the method.
