Why Instrumentation & Measurement is Critical in Underground

Speaker:

Abstract:
This Horizontal Directional Drilling (HDD) is a construction
technique used to emplace utilities without trenching or
digging. Although borehole creation is a mechanical process,
surprisingly complex electronics and software are needed to
locate, detect and avoid existing utilities; plan the
borepath; determine depth; steer the drill string; and
control the machine. The primary tools for routine field
operations rely on magnetic field measurements and are
significantly constrained by power limitations, physical
demands of the construction environment, and a difficult,
highly variable, and unpredictable medium (soil, sand,
gravel, and rock). This presentation introduces the basic
physics, technology, and
techniques employed in obstacle location and borepath
tracking; reviews recent experimental research involving
data telemetry and unconventional applications of the
industry’s magnetic field technology; reviews the current
state of ground penetrating radar (GPR) in HDD applications;
and touches on some difficult and unanswered problems still
awaiting solutions.

Abstract:
This talk introduces a theoretical and experimental program
to develop the inspection and fault detection technology
needed to integrate MAVs for persistent intelligence,
reconnaissance, maintenance and surveillance for obscured or
logistically challenging assets in non-urban environments.
The design is explained using a context of heterogeneous
deployment of wireless sensors for real-time asset
monitoring by anticipating exceptional conditions and
building the system to cope with them. The system converges
towards an error-free state with self-stabilization, the
ability to fall back to a safe mode in a financially
feasible manner. This sophisticated mechanism requires a
real-time capacity estimation capability to sustain the
quality-of-service, which can be achieved by a distributed
sensor network. We discuss issues in design and information
propagation in such sensor clustered topology, optimization
for power-aware networking, and link and node capacity
assignment to achieve the desired goals.

Abstract:
An illustrated account of the consequences of the major
Richter scale 9 earthquake and ensuing huge tsunami of 11
March 2011 on the nuclear power units at the Fukushima Dai-ichi
plant in Japan. This presentation will focus primarily on
the most significant events at the plants that led to fuel
failures and release of radioactive substances. The extent
and nature of those releases will be noted. The action of
the Japanese government and the reaction of the
international community will be mentioned. A very brief
introduction to nuclear power will be offered for those who
have not taken “Nuclear 101” and, in conclusion, the action
of the Canadian regulator including some comparisons of the
design of the Fukushima reactors and CANDU. |

Abstract:
Electric power grids around the world are rapidly evolving
to make more extensive use of communication technology. New
intelligent electronic devices are being developed and
deployed in which communications is becoming a ubiquitous
and natural part of power systems allowing new forms of
collaborative behavior. An analogy is often made between the
interconnection of personal computers many decades ago
resulting in the rise of the Internet and what is happening
within the power grid today. However, the power grid is a
large and complex machine with many aspects; it comprises a
very broad set of topics. This hour-long talk will begin
with a review of power systems and focus upon emerging
communications capabilities within the power grid including:
metering and demand-response, distributed generation, fault
detection isolation and restoration, and a brief overview of
emerging standards. We will end with a discussion of more
speculative innovations that may impact the smart grid
further into the future. |
