Development of Rescue Support Stretcher System with Stair-Climbing
Journal of Robotics and Mechatronics, 2013Co-Authors: Yuki Iwano, Koichi Osuka, Hisanori AmanoAbstract:A sarin Gas Attack on the Tokyo subway system on March 20, 1995, sickened many passengers. Since the Attack was made underground, the main job of rescue personnel was to transport victims on stretchers to a ground-level first-aid station. We therefore conducted research on the development of a rescue support stretcher system for handling serious casualties in a quick and effective manner in underground areas or at stations. The stretcher system is expected to help rescue personnel such as fire fighters achieve efficient rescue operations. In this paper, we introduce a rescue support stretcher system for going up and down stairs. We also examine the effectiveness of the system in experiments.

RO-MAN - Evaluation of rescue support stretcher system
2012 IEEE RO-MAN: The 21st IEEE International Symposium on Robot and Human Interactive Communication, 2012Co-Authors: Yuki Iwano, Koichi Osuka, Hisanori AmanoAbstract:A Sarin Gas Attack occurred in the Tokyo subway system on March 20, 1995. This fatal Gas Attack sickened many passengers. Since the disaster broke out underground, the main job of the rescue personnel was to transport victims on stretchers to a first-aid station above the ground. Therefore, we researched the development of a rescue support stretcher system for handling heavy casualties in underground areas or at stations in a quick and effective manner. The stretcher system is expected to help firefighters achieve efficient rescue operations. In this paper, we introduce a rescue support stretcher system for going up and down stairs. We also propose an upgrade technique. Finally, we experimentally examine the effectiveness of the system.

corrosion behavior of reaction bonded si3n4 sic and sialon sic composites in simulated aluminum smelting conditions
Journal of the Ceramic Society of Japan, 2008Co-Authors: Mark I Jones, Ron Etzion, Jim Metson, You Zhou, Hideki Hyuga, Yuichi Yoshizawa, Kiyoshi HiraoAbstract:Si 3 N 4 -SiC composites, which are widely used as sidewall refractories in aluminum smelting cells, have been produced by reaction bonding and their corrosion performance assessed in simulated aluminum electrochemical cell conditions. Additional samples were produced with the silicon nitride bonding phase replaced by β SiAlON with compositions ranging from Z = 1-4 in Si 6-z Al z Ο z N 8-z . The formation of the Si 3 N 4 and SiAlON bonding phases were studied by reaction bonding of silicon powders in a nitrogen atmosphere at low temperatures to promote the formation of silicon nitride, followed by a higher heating step to produce β SiAlON composites of different composition. The corrosion performance was studied in a laboratory scale aluminum electrolysis cell where samples were exposed to both liquid Attack from molten salt bath and corrosive Gas Attack. For the Si 3 N 4 bonded samples, the corrosion resistance was shown to be strongly dependent on the environment during corrosion testing, with samples in the Gas phase showing higher corrosion than those immersed in the bath. Samples that had been pre-soaked in the bath and then tested in the Gas phase showed the highest corrosion due to the combined effects of bath penetration and Gas Attack. For the SiAlON bonded samples, the corrosion results showed similar trends but were complicated by the presence of a strongly adherent layer on the samples which influenced volume measurements. This layer is believed to be alumina and appears to form through an interaction with the SiAlON and the bath components, since no such layer was observed for the silicon nitride samples.

Reaction Bonded Silicon Nitride - Silicon Carbide and SiAlON - Silicon Carbide Refractories for Aluminium Smelting
Key Engineering Materials, 2008Co-Authors: Mark I Jones, Ron Etzion, Jim Metson, You Zhou, Hideki Hyuga, Yuichi Yoshizawa, Kiyoshi HiraoAbstract:The widely used Si3N4-SiC sidewall refractories for aluminum smelting cells, and β SiAlON-SiC composites that can be potentially used for this purpose, have been produced by reaction bonding and their corrosion performance assessed in simulated aluminum electrochemical cell conditions. The formation of the Si3N4 and SiAlON phases were studied by reaction bonding of silicon powders in a nitrogen atmosphere at low temperatures to promote the formation of silicon nitride, followed by a higher heating step to produce β SiAlON composites of different composition. The corrosion performance was studied in a laboratory scale aluminum electrolysis cell where samples were exposed to both liquid Attack from molten salt bath and corrosive Gas Attack. The corrosion resistance of the samples was shown to be dependent on the composition but more importantly on the environment during corrosion, with samples in the Gas phase showing higher corrosion.
