Wildland Fire Fighter Suit

Wildland Fire Fighter Suit

Abstract

The forest firefighting suit consists of the following components and uses: The forest firefighting suit is designed and developed to be suitable for the behavior of the officers and the conditions of the work area, consisting of a shirt and pants. The material used in the sewing of the suit is aramid fabric, which has the property of being able to prevent the spread of fire, to prevent the officers from burning while performing their duties in the event that the forest fire spreads close to them, which is different from the current suits that cannot prevent fires. The shirt is designed with a mesh on the side of the body to release internal heat so that air can circulate well. The sleeves at the elbows have a support point to prevent contact with the ground or obstacles. The collar has a slot for a portable fan and a fan air circulation channel on the back, which can be turned on while performing forest firefighting duties, helping to prevent the body temperature from getting too hot, reducing the risk of heatstroke. When the fan battery runs out, it can be removed for charging and put back in when needed. The pants are designed with mesh on the inside or in blind spots to release internal heat so that air can circulate well. The pants at the knees have a support point to prevent contact with the ground or obstacles. The forest firefighting suit, consisting of a shirt and pants, has been designed and developed to be able to be produced domestically, reducing imports from abroad

Objective

ปัญหาไฟป่าที่ทวีความรุนแรงขึ้นเรื่อย ๆ ส่งผลกระทบในหลายๆด้านโดยเฉพาะผู้ที่พักอาศัยบริเวณใกล้ไฟป่าต้องเผชิญกับปัญหาด้านสุขภาพที่เกิดจากฝุ่น PM2.5 ประกอบกับทางภาครัฐยังขาดแคลนบุคลากรเจ้าหน้าที่ ที่มีความชำนาญในการดับไฟป่า รวมถึงยังขาดชุดดับไฟป่าที่เป็นชุดสามารถกันไฟได้เหมาะสมต่อการดับไฟ เนื่องจากในปัจจุบันชุดที่เจ้าหน้าที่อุทยาน และเจ้าหน้าที่ศูนย์ดับไฟป่า สวมใส่ในการปฏิบัติหน้าที่นั้นเป็นชุดลายพลาง กางเกงกับเสื้อแบบทั่วไป ไม่สามารถปกป้อง หรือกันไฟเมื่อไฟมาถึงระยะประชิดตัวได้ในระดับที่เหมาะสม ซึ่งสาเหตุนี้ส่งผลให้เจ้าหน้าที่บางรายได้รับอันตรายถึงขั้นไฟคลอกได้ ผู้วิจัยจึงได้เล็งเห็นถึงความสำคัญในการออกแบบและพัฒนาชุดดับไฟป่า เพื่อให้เจ้าหน้าที่อุทยาน และเจ้าหน้าที่ศูนย์ดับไฟป่า สามารถสวมใส่ปฏิบัติหน้าที่ได้อย่างปลอดภัย ช่วยลดอุปสรรคในการดับไฟป่าและปฏิบัติหน้าที่ได้อย่างเต็มประสิทธิภาพมากยิ่งขึ้น

TOOTHBRUSH APPEARANCE FACTORS THAT AFFECT BABY BOOMERS' PURCHASING DECISIONS

This study aims to identify the toothbrush appearance factors that affect baby boomers purchasing decisions. The research divide into three stages: The first stage is to classify the toothbrush appearance factors through a review of literature, research, and examining toothbrushes currently available on the market, summarizing them as appearance factors. The second stage is to summarize the results of the toothbrush appearance factors to create a multiple-choice questionnaire in three dimensions: purchasing decisions, aesthetics, and functionality. Collecting data from a group of 30 Baby Boomers aged 57-75 years old. The last stage is to summarize the three dimensions of appearance factors affecting baby boomers' toothbrush purchasing decisions and report as percentages and rank them. The research findings indicate that the most significant toothbrush appearance factor is a "Curved handle," accounting for 80%, followed by “Multi-level bristles” at 70%, a "Rubber thumb rest" at 53.3%, "Handle divided into more than two parts" at 50%, and “Offset shape” at 40%, respectively. In terms of the reason for purchasing decision based on various factors are as follows: the curved handle and offset shape give a sense of purchase with its aesthetic, While the selection of multi-level bristles, the Rubber thumb rest, and the handle divided into more than two parts due to functionality.

Industrial robotic arm and pneumatic control systems

This Project has been undertaken to address the need for skill development and knowledge enhancement in pneumatic systems and automation control, which are crucial in today’s manufacturing industry. Pneumatic systems play a vital role in various production processes, including machine control, automated devices, and assembly lines. However, the Department of Measurement and Control Engineering currently lacks a laboratory dedicated to the study and experimentation of pneumatic systems due to the deterioration and lack of maintenance of the previously used equipment. This has resulted in students missing the opportunity to practice essential skills required in the industrial sector. The authors of this thesis recognize the necessity of reviving and developing a pneumatic laboratory that can effectively support teaching, learning, and research activities. This project focuses on studying and developing industrial robotic arm control systems and pneumatic systems, integrating modern technologies such as Programmable Logic Controllers (PLC) and AI Vision. These systems are intended to be applicable to real-world industrial contexts. The outcomes of this project are expected to not only enhance the understanding of relevant technologies but also aim to transform the laboratory into a vital learning hub for current and future students. Furthermore, this initiative seeks to improve the competitiveness of students in the job market and support the development of innovations in the manufacturing industry in the years to come.

Effect of Seed Priming Technique with Chaetomorpha sp. on Germination and Seedlings Growth of Chili

This study investigated the effects of seed priming with Chaetomorpha sp. seaweed extract on seed germination and seedling growth of chili pepper. The objective was to examine the influence of seaweed extract concentrations on seed germination and seedling development. Seeds were primed in different concentrations of Chaetomorpha sp. extract, compared with a control treatment. The experiment was conducted using a completely randomized design with four replications. Results showed that seed priming with seaweed extract enhanced seed germination characteristics. Primed seeds exhibited improved germination percentage, germination index, and germination rate compared to the control. Additionally, seedlings from primed seeds showed enhanced root and shoot development. This study demonstrates the potential of Chaetomorpha sp. extract as a promising seed priming agent for improving chili pepper seed quality, which can be applied in the production of high-quality chili pepper seedlings.
