Transparency on Scientific Instruments
EMBO reports, 2018Co-Authors: Carsten Bergenholtz, Samuel C. Macaulay, Christos Kolympiris, Inge SeimAbstract:Scientists and commercial Scientific Instrument makers have a shared incentive against discloseing an Instrument maker's contributions to research. Stricter rules to encourage reporting of such collaboration would help to improve transparency and reproducibility.

development of a Scientific Instrument interface module for cabled seafloor observatories based on industrial control technology
2013 OCEANS - San Diego, 2013Co-Authors: Ruihong Lan, Yeqing Yue, Yingjun Xie, Hong Song, Dan Song, Yong Cai, Ying ChenAbstract:Cabled seafloor observatories are subsea infrastructure for real-time, in-situ and 3-dimensional oceanographic observations. Data acquired by cabled seafloor observatories can be used for tsunami/earthquake forecast, environmental monitoring, research on climate change, etc. In our work, a Scientific Instrument Interface Module (SIIM) has been developed for the connection of underwater Instruments with various power requirements and communication interfaces. It is a standard device interfacing between Instruments and cabled seafloor observatories. Reliability and flexibility are emphasized during the design of SIIM to reduce maintenance cost. With the use of industrial control technology and modular design, the number and type of the Instrument ports are configurable according to customer requirements.

Mechanical design of Scientific Instrument interface module in cabled seafloor observatory
2012 Oceans - Yeosu, 2012Co-Authors: Yeqing Yue, Ruihong Lan, Yingjun Xie, Fengzhong Qu, Hong Song, Ying ChenAbstract:The seafloor observatories attract increasing interests since they explore the deep ocean in a realtime and in-situ manner, which has been pursued for centuries since people first time tried to disclose the mystery of oceans. Seafloor observatory systems consist of remote sensing, stationary, movable and drifting platforms which are assembled throughout the country. The Scientific Instrument interface module (SIIM) is a key component that connects Scientific Instruments to junction box (JB), acting as an interface between Instruments and JBs. This paper presents SIIM mechanical design with the features of compact size, light weight, high pressure durability, good heat dissipation performance, and easy sea deployment. The design includes a pressure vessel, electrical devices arrangement in the chamber and base frame for sea deployment. Analytical and numerical methods are adopted throughout the system design. The results show that our design solves the pressure and heat dissipation problems.

smart phone smart science how the use of smartphones can revolutionize research in cognitive science
PLOS ONE, 2011Co-Authors: Stephane Dufau, Jon Andoni Dunabeitia, Carmen Morettatay, Aileen Mcgonigal, David Peeters, Xavier F Alario, David A Balota, Marc Brysbaert, Manuel Carreiras, Ludovic FerrandAbstract:Investigating human cognitive faculties such as language, attention, and memory most often relies on testing small and homogeneous groups of volunteers coming to research facilities where they are asked to participate in behavioral experiments. We show that this limitation and sampling bias can be overcome by using smartphone technology to collect data in cognitive science experiments from thousands of subjects from all over the world. This mass coordinated use of smartphones creates a novel and powerful Scientific "Instrument" that yields the data necessary to test universal theories of cognition. This increase in power represents a potential revolution in cognitive science.

skateboard longboard speedometer project
Physics Education, 2012Co-Authors: Jonathan P HareAbstract:A simple, low-cost infrared LED speedometer is described that can be fitted to a skateboard, longboard or even a bicycle to measure speed. Notes on building, setting up and calibration are given. When used with a low-cost data logger, continuous measurements of speed can be made while out and about. The device forms an interesting science club project and would be a great introduction for potential physicists and engineers to Scientific Instrument design, testing and calibration as well as generating lots of their own interesting data to analyse.
