Life Cycle Impact Assessment of Glass Manufacturing In Pakistan /

By Khan, Muhammad Usman Ali . . 76p. , The production of glass packaging requires a lot of energy and resources, and as the world's population rises, particularly in emerging nations, so does the demand for glass packaging. Although developing nations are also suffering from the effects of climate change, there is relatively little study on environmental impact assessment and analysis, notably the environmental impacts brought on by the activities related to glass manufacturing. This work conducted a thorough life cycle assessment (LCA) for the production of glass packaging in Pakistan in order to close this research gap of quantification of the environmental impacts of glass packaging production. The LCA was carried out for three distinct types of glass packaging solutions (amber, flint, and green), considering 1-ton of glass as the functional unit. The creation of several scenarios allowed for the analysis of the effects and the generation of ideas for ways to lessen the negative effects of glass manufacture on the environment. The study's methodology used a cradle-to-gate approach. From the perspective of the life cycle inventory, the main data were gathered from a renowned glass industry situated in one of Pakistan's designated industrial zones, and the secondary data were obtained from the Ecoinvent database. Environmental impacts were measured at midpoint and endpoint levels utilizing the ReCiPe 2016 approach and SimaPro V 9.2 as the software tool. Results indicated that the extraction and processing of raw material had worse impacts on the environment. At plant level the consumption of natural gas for the melting purposes and electricity consumed from national grid had highest impacts on the environment. The comparison of three packaging solutions indicated that the production of green glass was more harmful to the environment, followed by the production of amber glass and flint glass came out to be more environmentally friendly among the three packaging solutions. The alternative scenarios were generated by changing the energy-mix and the cullet ratios and the results were compared with the baseline scenarios for different midpoint and endpoint impact categories. The alternative scenarios for the energy mix were also compared for different kinds of emissions to air especially the greenhouse gas emissions. The report also identified a number of significant implications. This study may serve as a guide for future research on the environmental impact of the glass packaging industry, particularly in Pakistan and other developing nations. In this sense, developing nations would work toward net-zero emissions and sustainable development goals 30cm.

Analyzing and Decoding Natural Reach & Grasp Action Using Convolutional Neural Network /

By Nazir, Abida . . 44p. , Reaching and Grasping is most signi cant component of human life.Translation of EEG in the form of upper limb movement is of great importance for realization of natural neuroprosthesis control and restoration of hand movements of patients with motor disorders. Patients su ering from spinal cord injury (SCI)problems have lost most of voluntary motor control functions. Such type of loss can be cured using movement related cortical potentials (MRCPS) analysis. Brain computer interface with limb neuro-prosthesis is considered as a solution to such problems. This study anlyzes EEG signals in relation with natural reach and grasp actions. EEG signals have movement related cortical potentials (MRCPS) which can be used to decode upper limb movements. This experiment was performed in Graz University of Technology Austria and they o ered free access dataset for further exploration.Total 45 subjects were involved in this study, 15 subjects with every type of electrode:gel,water and dry performed the experiment. All subjects accomplished self-initiated 80 reach and grasp actions toward a spoon within the jar (lateral grasp) and toward an empty glass (palmar grasp).EEG signals are recorded using three types of electrodes: water based, Gel based and Dry electrodes. In this study signals are classi ed using Deep learning technique i.e Convulotional Neural Networks. For analysis, EEG signals were preprocessed using various lteration techniques. After ltration data is fed into classi er for classi cation of signals. Data is divided into test set and training set. Grand average peak accuracy calculated on unseen test data resulted in 54.2% classi cation accuracy i.e Gel based accuracy approached 56.8.4%, water based 52.7% and dry based 51.8%. 30cm.

Effects of Broadband Noise on Sleep Quality /

By Zulfiqar, Zanib . . 78p. , Quality sleep is related to multiple valued performances in human life, including maintaining health and improving outcomes at work. Disturbance of sleep can increase the morbidity rate and can create multiple psychological and physiological issues. Broadband noises were hypothesized to mask disruptive noises and improve sleep quality. However, the efficacy of noise in improving sleep measures remained unclear due to the smaller sample size, uncontrolled noise environment, and sleep duration. The main aim of the study was to quantify sleep quality, sleep fragmentation, sleep latency, and relevant sleep factors by providing broadband noises and to assess whether white noise could be a non-pharmacological treatment for better sleep quality. For that purpose, sleep monitoring devices i.e., Fitbit Charge 4 and 5 as well as multiple questionnaires including PSQI, rMEQ, AASP, and St Mary questionnaire were used for data collection. Both hardware and questionnaire data were used to evaluate the effect of white noise on all the sleep factors i.e., sleep stages, sleep latency, total sleep duration, and overall sleep score. Also, environmental noise was measured by using decibel meters. Mostly healthy participants having the age of 25.07+/-4.66 for the questionnaire-based study and 24.25+/- 2.57 for hardware-based data were selected for data collection. Multiple statistical tests were performed on the collected data. ANOVA tests were performed on Fitbit’s data along with the post-hoc tests. Also, chi-square tests were conducted on questionnaire data. The p-value>0.0.5 in all tests suggested that no significant effect of white noise on sleep quality. The results concluded that white noise does not play a significant role in improving sleep quality. However, it can be used as a placebo effect for better sleep for specific persons. The results are based on both sleep monitoring devices and questionnaires with proper statistical analysis, having greater sample size and under controlled environmental noise. However, this work can be extended by changing the population of the experiment i.e., infants and ICU patients to check the effects of white noise. 30cm.

Design and Development of an Air-Driven Posture Correction Device /

By Haris, Muhammad. . 129p. , The prevalence of postural kyphosis continues to rise across all demographics because of inactive lifestyles and extended screen time usage which has established itself as a major musculoskeletal issue. The current solutions including static braces and feedback-only wearables, fail to provide adaptability and comfort with active correction features. This restricts their ability to achieve longterm success and user adherence. The research introduces a new wearable air-driven posture correction device which combines real-time sensing with pneumatic actuation to treat flexible thoracic kyphosis. The proposed wearable tech device focuses on posture correction by integrating multiple features into one compact device. The system includes an MPU-6050 inertial measurement unit which tracks the user’s trunk in real time in six degrees of freedom. A microcontroller processes this data and determines if changes to posture exceed a calibrated angular threshold. If so, the system triggers a pneumatic actuation module within an orthopedic vest that has been altered for this purpose. This module includes butyl rubber chambers which are constrained but designed to inflate and mechanically stress the upper back by simulating the action of scapular retractor muscles. To measure the corrective force, force-sensitive resistors (FSRs) are placed where the actuators and the body interface. A closed-loop control system dynamically adaptive and responsive to real time conditions with sensor fusion guarantees timely action and feedback. The prototype was tested by means of both objective and subjective methods, with a full-scale experimental protocol involving 24 healthy participants. Data collected in this study included realtime pitch angle vs actuator force, and subjective user feedback through standardized ergonomic surveys such as the Borg CR10 scale, Corlett & Bishop discomfort map, and the System Usability Scale (SUS). Results indicate that the system successfully minimized thoracic pitch deviation while maintaining safe tactile force levels, achieving average corrective pressures of 7–12 kPa, resulting in notable postural enhancement. The system reliably attained enhancements in posture, surpassing 85% in 22 out of 24 participants. This work contributes a fully automated, textile-integrated pneumatic solution for posture correction, combining real-time sensing, adaptive actuation, and ergonomic design. The proposed xix system offers a replicable framework for intelligent musculoskeletal rehabilitation wearables and lays the groundwork for future closed-loop personalization strategies in postural health technologies. 30cm..
