Composite High-Pressure Tanks for CNG and Hydrogen (H₂)

Composite High-Pressure Tanks for CNG  and Hydrogen (H₂)

Abstract

A high-pressure gas storage tank made from composite materials, including carbon fiber, resin, and plastic, is designed for storing compressed natural gas (CNG) or hydrogen. This type of tank is classified as a Type IV high-pressure vessel. In this research, it is designed to operate at a pressure of 250 bar for the transportation of compressed natural gas.

Objective

การบรรจุก๊าซที่ความดันสูงต้องใช้บรรจุภัณฑ์​ที่มีความแข็งแรง​ การใช้ถังที่ผลิตจากโลหะถูกนำมาใช้ในช่วงแรกๆ​ แต่ปัญหาที่ตามมาคือน้ำหนักมากทำให้สิ้นเปลืองเชื้อเพลิงในกรณีที่นำไปติดตั้งบนยานพาหนะ​ จึงเกิดการพัฒนาถังความดันที่พัฒนาจากวัสดุประกอบขึ้นซึ่งจะช่วยลดน้ำหนักของบรรจุภัณฑ์​และการกัดกร่อนเกิดขึ้นน้อย

A smart child manikin for CPR training

A child manikin for Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) training includes the trachea mechanism, neck mechanism, lung mechanism, heart pump mechanism, artificial skin, and sensor system. All components work together to function similar to a real child. It can be used to practice heart pumping and resuscitation. The manikin has been designed and verified by resuscitation experts. It has a system to evaluate the accuracy of the training and display the results on the computer for real-time monitoring.

Biodiversity of soil microorganisms

Soil is home to a diverse array of living organisms that interact within a complex food web, facilitating energy and nutrient cycling essential for sustaining life above ground. Among these organisms, soil microbes play a crucial role in supporting plant growth. Beneficial microorganisms enhance nutrient availability, improve soil structure by increasing porosity, and strengthen plant resistance to diseases. Conversely, harmful microorganisms, such as plant pathogens, can hinder plant growth and reduce crop yields when present in high concentrations. Neutral microorganisms, which naturally inhabit the soil, contribute to the soil ecosystem without directly impacting plants. A single teaspoon of soil contains over a billion microorganisms, yet only about 1% of them can be cultured in laboratory conditions. This highlights soil as one of the richest reservoirs of microbial diversity on Earth.

AI-Powered Security & Consumer Analytics, Integrating AI Vision for Enhanced Security and Consumer Behavior Insights in the Digital Era

In the digital era, Artificial Intelligence (AI) plays a crucial role in developing smart cities and enhancing business operations. Among AI-driven technologies, AI Vision Analytics has gained significant attention for Access Control Systems (ACS) and Consumer Behavior Analytics. This research focuses on integrating AI Access Control and AI Video Analytics to examine factors influencing Technology Adoption Behavior using the UTAUT2 (Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology 2) framework. Key factors assessed include Trust in Technology, Effort Expectancy, Social Influence, and Performance Expectancy, which impact users’ willingness to adopt AI-driven security and analytics solutions. The study also includes a real-world implementation of AI Vision Analytics at KMITL EXPO, where an AI-powered Access Control System and AI Video Analytics are deployed. The collected data is analyzed to identify trends in AI adoption for business management and security enhancement. The findings provide valuable insights for businesses and organizations to optimize AI Vision Analytics for enhancing security management and digital marketing strategies.
