  • Design of a Tree Pruning Device
    CAPSTONE DESIGN COURSE Design of a Tree Pruning Device Design Team Garth Baker, Pete Colantonio, Dmitry Layevsky Ryan Provencher, Ryan Rafter Design Advisor Professor Greg Kowalski Course Instructor Professor Greg Kowalski Department of Mechanical, Industrial, and Manufacturing Engineering Northeastern University Boston, MA 02115 Design of a Tree Pruning Device Design Team Garth Baker, Pete Colantonio Dmirty Layevsky, Ryan Provencher, Ryan Rafter Design Advisor Prof. Greg Kowalski Abstract The initial specifications of this design project were to design a pruning device that could cut through a three-inch diameter branch that is twenty-five feet above the ground in a reasonable amount of time using a waterjet-cutting device. Additional requirements include that the device have a competitive cost and be safe and easy to use. The team determined that the use of waterjet cutting technology was an infeasible design concept to meet these requirements, because it would take almost two hours to cut through a three­ inch branch using a pressure washer capable of 3500 psi. To cut a three-inch diameter branch in a reasonable time would require a pressure above 30,000 psi. A shearing device that would be powered by a hydraulic piston was selected as a better and more feasible alternative design solution. The shearing device we designed has hardened steel blades from a Corona® clipper product, and utilizes a hydraulic piston attached to a 29-foot telescoping pole, which is mounted to a tripod .. A telescoping pole, made of Thorne!® carbon fiber and reaching twenty-five feet, is required to meet the second design requirement.

  • Indian Tribal Ornaments; a Hidden Treasure
    IOSR Journal of Environmental Science, Toxicology and Food Technology (IOSR-JESTFT) e-ISSN: 2319-2402,p- ISSN: 2319-2399.Volume 10, Issue 3 Ver. II (Mar. 2016), PP 01-16 www.iosrjournals.org Indian Tribal Ornaments; a Hidden Treasure Dr. Jyoti Dwivedi Department of Environmental Biology A.P.S. University Rewa (M.P.) 486001India Abstract: In early India, people handcrafted jewellery out of natural materials found in abundance all over the country. Seeds, feathers, leaves, berries, fruits, flowers, animal bones, claws and teeth; everything from nature was affectionately gathered and artistically transformed into fine body jewellery. Even today such jewellery is used by the different tribal societies in India. It appears that both men and women of that time wore jewellery made of gold, silver, copper, ivory and precious and semi-precious stones.Jewelry made by India's tribes is attractive in its rustic and earthy way. Using materials available in the local area, it is crafted with the help of primitive tools. The appeal of tribal jewelry lies in its chunky, unrefined appearance. Tribal Jewelry is made by indigenous tribal artisans using local materials to create objects of adornment that contain significant cultural meaning for the wearer. Keywords: Tribal ornaments, Tribal culture, Tribal population , Adornment, Amulets, Practical and Functional uses. I. Introduction Tribal Jewelry is primarily intended to be worn as a form of beautiful adornment also acknowledged as a repository for wealth since antiquity. The tribal people are a heritage to the Indian land. Each tribe has kept its unique style of jewelry intact even now. The original format of jewelry design has been preserved by ethnic tribal.

  • Glossary of Jewellery Making and Beading Terms
    Glossary of Jewellery Making and Beading Terms A jewellery glossary of beading terms and jewellery making terminology combining clear images with easy to understand dictionary like definitions. This bead glossary also provides links to more in depth content and bead resources. It can be used as a beading A to Z reference guide to dip into as needed, or as a beading and jewellery glossary for beginners to help broaden beading and jewellery making knowledge. It is particularly effective when used alongside our Beading Guides, Histories, Theories and Tutorials, or in conjunction with our Gemstones & Minerals Glossary and Venetian Glass Making Glossary. A ABALONE These edible sea creatures are members of a large class of molluscs that have one piece shells with an iridescent interior. These shells have a low and open spiral structure, and are characterized by several open respiratory pores in a row near the shell’s outer edge. The thick inner layer of the shell is composed of a dichroic substance called nacre or mother-of-pearl, which in many species is highly iridescent, giving rise to a range of strong and changeable colors, making it ideal for jewellery and other decorative objects. Iridescent nacre varies in colour from silvery white, to pink, red and green- red, through to deep blues, greens, and purples. Read more in our Gemstones & Minerals Glossary. Above are examples of Paua and Red Abalone. ACCENT BEAD Similar in purpose to a Focal Bead, this is a bead that forms the focus for a piece of jewellery, but on this occasion rather then through its size, it is usually through contrast.
