Safety is considered to be the most critical issue in the success of any lift operation. However, crane accidents involving tragic deaths of innocent people and destruction of property do occur. The number of accidents has decreased, only after the implementation of strict regulations by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). Repeated boom failure accidents of truck cranes used by the Bridge Maintenance Unit from the North Carolina Department of Transportation (NC DOT) triggered the research study described in this paper. Throughout the summer of 1994, the Bridge Maintenance Division of NC DOT recorded four accidents involving serious damage to their fleet of 64 National Series 446A truck mounted hydraulic cranes. The accidents involved bending of telescopic booms as well as turret drive gear failures. The repair of a bent boom alone can cost up to $16,000 in replacement parts, without considering all the costs of lab.r and overhead. The main objective of this research project was to develop and test an intelligent monitoring system that could be used to retrofit existing crane hardware. It was shown how a set of sensors and special devices were built and electronically integrated using an analog/digital converter and a laptop computer. Experimental work with a fully operational crane provided the necessary data to build a feature-based state identification system. Using a set of data collected during the experiments the paper demonstrates how sensory patterns can be recognized that lead to the identification of dangerous stales.
In this paper, we focus on an open problem in *** area of 3D object recognition-vision model building for 3D objects. We integrating CAD system and robot vision system and led to a third type of vision model building ...

Emotional Intelligence is a new discipline of knowledge, dealing with modeling, recognition and control of human emotions. The book Emotional Intelligence: A Cybernetic Approach, to the best of the authors’ knowledge is a first compreh- sive text of its kind that provides a clear introduction to the subject in a precise and insightful writing style. It begins with a philosophical introduction to E- tional Intelligence, and gradually explores the mathematical models for emotional dynamics to study the artificial control of emotion using music and videos, and also to determine the interactions between emotion and logic from the points of view of reasoning. The later part of the book covers the chaotic behavior of - existing emotions under certain conditions of emotional dynamics. Finally, the book attempts to cluster emotions using electroencephalogram signals, and d- onstrates the scope of application of emotional intelligence in several engineering systems, such as human-machine interfaces, psychotherapy, user assistance s- tems, and many others. The book includes ten chapters. Chapter 1 provides an introduction to the s- ject from a philosophical and psychological standpoint. It outlines the fundamental causes of emotion arousal, and typical characteristics of the phenomenon of an emotive experience. The relation between emotion and rationality of thoughts is also introduced here. Principles of natural regulation of emotions are discussed in brief, and the biological basis of emotion arousal using an affective neu- scientific model is introduced next.
