251	Moisture effects on visible near-infrared and mid-infrared soil spectra and strategies to mitigate the impact for predictive modeling Silva, Francis Hettige Chamika Anuradha 08 December 2023 (has links) (PDF) Instrumental disparities and soil moisture are two of the key limitations in implementing spectroscopic techniques in the field. This study sought to address these challenges through two objectives. The first objective was to assess Visible-near infrared (VisNIR) and mid-infrared (MIR) spectroscopic approaches and explore the feasibility of transferring calibration models between laboratory and portable spectrometers. The second objective addressed the challenge of soil moisture and its impact on spectra. The portable spectrometers demonstrated comparable performance to their laboratory-based counterparts in both regions. Spiking with extra-weight, was the most effective calibration transfer method eliminating disparities between instruments. The samples were rewetted under nine controlled conditions for the moisture study. Results showed that spiking with extra weights significantly outperformed other techniques and model enhancement was insensitive to the moisture contents. Findings of this study will be helpful for development and deployment of in situ sensors to enable field implementation of spectroscopy.

252	Open Guitar Building Project Hemphill, Bill 01 January 2022 (has links) The ETSU Guitar Project’s Open Education Resource (OER) site is a repository of shareable files developed and used in the design & fabrication of electric and acoustic guitars. Begun in 2010, the ETSU Guitar Building Program is affiliated with the NSF-sponsored, national STEM Guitar Project to increase student engagement in the STEM disciplines from K-12 to Higher Ed. Guitar design, prototyping & build activities in the ENTC 3600 Manufacturing Technologies course use a hands-on mix of 2D CADD, 3D modeling, traditional woodworking, CNC routing and laser etching operations in a custom shop-type environment to create unique electric solid body and semi-hollow body electric guitars. Beginning in 2019, the Engineering Technology program faculty began partnering with faculty in ETSU’s groundbreaking Department of Bluegrass, Old Time, and Roots Music Studies program in building acoustic instruments. Designs of common and specialty acoustic instrument building including luthiers’ tooling, molds, templates, jigs and fixtures as well as alternative bracing are available from this repository. / https://dc.etsu.edu/etsu-oer/1009/thumbnail.jpg OER guitars electric guitars acoustic guitars engineering Acoustics, Dynamics, and Controls Algebra Algebraic Geometry Appalachian Studies Applied Mathematics Biology Computer-Aided Engineering and Design Engineering Education Engineering Science and Materials Forest Sciences Industrial and Product Design Manufacturing Music Other Engineering Physics Polymer and Organic Materials Polymer Chemistry Science and Mathematics Education
253	BBT Side Mold Assy Hemphill, Bill 07 June 2022 (has links) This electronic document file set covers the design and fabrication information of the ETSU Guitar Building Project’s BBT (OM-sized) Side Mold Assy for use with the STEM Guitar Project’s standard acoustic guitar kit. The extended 'as built' data set contains an overview file and companion video, the 'parent' CADD drawing, CADD data for laser etching and cutting a drill &/or layout template, CADD drawings in AutoCAD .DWG and .DXF R12 formats of the centerline tool paths for creating the mold assembly pieces on an AXYZ CNC router, and support documentation for CAM applications including router bit specifications, feeds, speed, multi-pass data, and layer names (formatted for AXYZ's ToolPath CAM software).

254	BBT Acoustic Alternative Top Bracing CADD Data Set-NoRev-2022Jun28 Hemphill, Bill 22 July 2022 (has links) This electronic document file set consists of an overview presentation (PDF-formatted) file and companion video (MP4) and CADD files (DWG & DXF) for laser cutting the ETSU-developed alternate top bracing designs and marking templates for the STEM Guitar Project’s BBT (OM-sized) standard acoustic guitar kit. The three (3) alternative BBT top bracing designs in this release are (a) a one-piece base for the standard kit's (Martin-style) bracing, (b) 277 Ladder-style bracing, and (c) an X-braced fan-style bracing similar to traditional European or so-called 'classical' acoustic guitars. The CADD data set for each of the three (3) top bracing designs includes (a) a nominal 24" x 18" x 3mm (0.118") Baltic birch plywood laser layout of (1) the one-piece base with slots, (2) pre-radiused and pre-scalloped vertical braces with tabs to ensure proper orientation and alignment, and (3) various gages and jigs and (b) a nominal 15" x 20" marking template. The 'provided as is" CADD data is formatted for use on a Universal Laser Systems (ULS) laser cutter digital (CNC) device. Each CADD drawing is also provided in two (2) formats: Autodesk AutoCAD 2007 .DWG and .DXF R12. Users should modify and adapt the CADD data as required to fit their equipment. This CADD data set is released and distributed under a Creative Commons license; users are also encouraged to make changes o the data and share (with attribution) their designs with the worldwide acoustic guitar building community.
