Article: Integração de um servidor web num sistema de pesagem
[show abstract] [hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: RESUMO – O presente artigo, descreve a integração das novas tecnologias de informação (TIs) via Web nos sistemas tradicionais de pesagem, dotando estes de grandes facilidades de interligação com outros sistemas ou equipamentos. Destas facilidades podem ser distinguidas as seguintes: leitura dos valores do peso local e remotamente; facilidades de ligação com sistemas de informação, bases de dados e outras formas de gestão e controlo centralizados; fácil ligação dos equipamentos em rede, possibilitando o controlo centralizado dos equipamentos e de todo o material por eles pesado; facilidades de teleassistência e telemanutenção. -
Article: 3D surface profile equipment for the characterization of the pavement texture – TexScan
[show abstract] [hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Loads from vehicles alter the functional and structural characteristics of road pavements that directly affect the loss of resistance of the pavement and the users’ comfort and safety. Those alterations require constant observation and analysis of an extensive area of road surface with high precision. For such it was developed a new scanning prototype machine capable of acquiring the 3D road surface data and characterize the road texture through two algorithms that allows calculate the Estimated Texture Depth (ETD) and Texture Profile Level (L) indicators. The experimental results obtained from nine road samples validate the developed algorithms for the texture analysis and showed good agreement between the scanning prototype equipment and the traditional Sand Patch Method.Mechatronics.
