  • 3-D Vision for Welder Training and Production Welding
    SUBCONTRACT NUMBER 2017-420 Panel Project Final Quarterly Report #4 for 3-D Vision for Welder Training and Production Welding Reporting Period: 9/1/17 – 12/1/17 Technical Progress/Major Accomplishments The team completed the second, final testing round o In-yard testing with experienced welders indicated that stereo was promising for blind / mirror welding o The in-school testing showed that the weld-by-video was very popular with students, but stereo was not judged to give any substantive training benefit; stereo seemed irrelevant. Dr. Foster presented his results at the NSRP joint panel meeting at Quonset RI, Sept 13. Details The team completed the second field testing round Because phase 1 found that students couldn’t appreciate the difference of stereo, the second testing phase focused on experienced welders. Mirror-welding tests were designed to differentiate the benefit of stereo (3D) over mono cameras by experienced welders. Tests were designed and executed by Dr. Foster of ODU as a subcontractor. Testing was done at 3 locations: Newport News Shipbuilding Austal Maritime Training Center Thomas Nelson Workforce Development Center Experienced welders successfully used the system to weld in blind spots where they would normally need a mirror to see. The experienced welders could effectively use the improvement of the video-view without worrying about how to weld. They liked the stereo over mono for general quality, but not specifically for depth perception. Stereo gives an improved look that is pleasing to the eye and brain. It just seems ‘better.’ Although the camera did provide depth perception, it remained awkward for the welders to get their hands into the proper position before the weld.

Personal protective equipment is not a substitute for good engineering, administrative controls or good work practices, but should be used in conjunction with these controls to ensure the safety and health of employees. Personal protective equipment will be provided, used, and maintained when it has been determined that its use is required and that such use will lessen the likelihood of occupational injury and/or illness. This program addresses eye, face, head, foot, and hand protection. Separate programs exist for respiratory and hearing protection since the need for participation in these programs is established through industrial hygiene monitoring. Standards and procedures set forth in this policy shall be considered minimum requirements. Divisions may set more stringent standards for specific laboratories, sites or procedures with approval of the Department Safety Director.

[email protected] [email protected] [email protected] ABSTRACT: In the Human sphere of life, Protection is defined as any measure taken to guard or protect an object or a human against any kind of Physical, Chemical and Biological hazards. Personal protective equipments are the equipments that offer complete protection against these kinds of hazards.They are designed in such a way that they ensure one’s safety to the fullest. The hazards addressed by protective equipments include physical, electrical, heat, chemicals, Bio hazard and airborne particulate.They are routinely used by Health care Professionals for preliminary protection. They enhance Occupational safety and also impose a barrier between the user and the environment. A Tremendous number of personal protective equipments had been invented in the last two decades. This review article has studied more than 55 articles on Personal protective Equipments. The article discusses such equipments that are needed for self protection of mankind which includes Face protective, Eye protective, Head protective, Ear protective, Ballistic protective and Foot protective equipments.

Swanson March 14, 2008 • Final Report New South Associates Technical Report No. 1568 ii ABSTRACT ABSTRACT This report is a thematic study of buildings and facilities constructed at Savannah River Site to produce heavy water in the 400/D Area. It was prepared in accordance with a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) signed by the Department of Energy–Savannah River (DOE-SR) and the South Carolina State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) dated February 27, 2003, as well as the Consolidated MOA of August 2004. The MOA stipulated that a thematic study and photographic documentation be produced that told the story of D Area’s genesis, its operational history, and its closure. D Area, also known as the 400 Area, was the site of the Savannah River’s heavy water production facilities constructed as part of the Savannah River Site (SRS) between 1950 and 1955. Heavy water was integral to the Site’s Cold War nuclear production mission as it was used to moderate and cool the five production reactors that operated at Savannah River.
