A dual coil induction heating machine for jewelry factories developed by electromagnetic analysis

Abstract

Induction Heating Machine (IHM) is a crucial device in the jewelry industry, utilizing electromagnetic fields to generate heat and join precious metals. This research focuses on developing a Dual Coil Induction Heating Machine (Dual Coil IHM) to enhance production efficiency and reduce costs in jewelry factories using Electromagnetic Analysis (EMA) through Ansys Maxwell software. The research process began with testing a single-coil IHM under real operating conditions and using EMA to analyze the generated magnetic flux density (B). Subsequently, dual-coil configurations in Parallel and Series arrangements were designed and compared. The experimental results revealed that the series dual coil produced a higher magnetic flux and allowed for optimizing current (I), frequency (f), number of coil turns (N), and coil spacing (d) for better manufacturing performance. The findings indicate that the series dual-coil IHM can double production capacity compared to the conventional single-coil model. Furthermore, EMA technology minimizes physical testing, reduces errors, and enhances precision in designing industrial machinery for the jewelry manufacturing sector.

Asymmetrical resonant cavity thin film devices designed for vanadium dioxide applications

In this paper, Vanadium dioxide (VO2) thin-film devices with two different use cases have been redesigned to introduce an asymmetrical resonant cavity structure. The structure is designed with the goal of enhancing the optical performance of the central VO2 layer and has an anti-reflection property in the cold state. The advantages and limitations of such a design are discussed.

Living Market Agricultural design

The design site of 22 hectares of agricultural land in this area is located in Tatata District, Iglenburg Province. The design concept of this area aims to encourage farmers and communities to earn income from the agricultural products produced in this area, and emphasizes that this area is a "living market", which can not only create food from a variety of crops, but also establish a balanced ecosystem and promote biodiversity in this area. The market will become a sustainable market area, which is not only beneficial to society in promoting economy, but also beneficial to the environment. The area will serve as a social and learning center, where community members can fully exchange agricultural information and experience and stimulate the economy in the community in another way.

CLASSIFICATION OF OTITIS MEDIA TYPE USING OTOSCOPIC IMAGES

Otitis Media is an infection of the middle ear that can occur in individuals of all ages. Diagnosis typically involves analyzing images taken with an otoscope by specialized physicians, which relies heavily on medical experience to expedite the process. This research introduces computer vision technology to assist in the preliminary diagnosis, aiding expert decision-making. By utilizing deep learning techniques and convolutional neural networks, specifically the YOLOv8 and Inception v3 architectures, the study aims to classify the disease and its five characteristics used by physicians: color, transparency, fluid, retraction, and perforation. Additionally, image segmentation and classification methods were employed to analyze and predict the types of Otitis Media, which are categorized into four types: Otitis Media with Effusion, Acute Otitis Media with Effusion, Perforation, and Normal. Experimental results indicate that the classification model performs moderately well in directly classifying Otitis Media, with an accuracy of 65.7%, a recall of 65.7%, and a precision of 67.6%. Moreover, the model provides the best results for classifying the perforation characteristic, with an accuracy of 91.8%, a recall of 91.8%, and a precision of 92.1%. In contrast, the classification model that incorporates image segmentation techniques achieved the best overall performance, with an mAP50-95 of 79.63%, a recall of 100%, and a precision of 99.8%. However, this model has not yet been tested for classifying the different types of Otitis Media.
