In countries that are rich with oil palm, the use of palm oil to produce bio-based acrylates and polyol can be the most eminent raw materials used for developing new and advanced natural polymeric materials involving radiation technique, like coating resins, nanoparticles, scaffold, nanocomposites, and lithography for different branches of the industry. The presence of hydrocarbon chains, carbon double bonds, and ester bonds in palm oil allows it to open up the possibility of fine-tuning its unique structures in the development of novel materials. Cross-linking, reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT), polymerization, grafting, and degradation are among the radiation mechanisms triggered by gamma, electron beam, ultraviolet, or laser irradiation sources. These radiation techniques are widely used in the development of polymeric materials because they are considered as the most versatile, inexpensive, easy, and effective methods. Therefore, this review summarized and emphasized on several recent studies that have reported on emerging radiation processing technologies for the production of radiation curable palm oil-based polymeric materials with a promising future in certain industries and biomedical applications. This review also discusses the rich potential of biopolymeric materials for advanced technology applications.

Food Quality And Safety

In recent decades, the quality and safety of fruits, vegetables, cereals, meats, milk, and their derivatives from processed foods have become a serious issue for consumers in developed as well as developing countries. Undoubtedly, the traditional methods of inspecting and ensuring quality that depends on the human factor, some mechanical and chemical methods, have proven beyond any doubt their inability to achieve food quality and safety, and thus a failure to achieve food security. With growing attention on human health, the standards of food safety and quality are continuously being improved through advanced technology applications that depend on artificial intelligence tools to monitor the quality and safety of food. One of the most important of these applications is imaging technology. A brief discussion in this chapter on the utilize of multiple imaging systems based on all different bands of the electromagnetic spectrum as a principal source of various imaging systems. As well as methods of analyzing and reading images to build intelligence and non-destructive systems for monitoring and measuring the quality of foods.

Ship Repair

One of the projects sponsored by the U.S. Navy's Maritime Technologies (MARITECH) Advanced Shipbuilding Enterprise Initiative in 1999 is being conducted jointly by the Atlantic Marine Holding Company (AMHC) in Mobile, Alabama (which also has facilities in Jacksonville, Florida) and the Manufacturing Engineering Laboratory of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) in Gaithersburg, Maryland. This project, "Knowledge-Based Modular Repair: Advanced Technology Applications for Ship Repair and Conversion," has the following goal: to reduce cycle times and costs, and improve the precision and overall quality of repair and conversion processes conducted by American shipyards. This paper presents the work being conducted in this project, along with first-year results. The project incorporates precision metrology techniques and advanced modeling and simulation technologies into repair and conversion operations. The project is facilitating prefabrication and modular installation of structural and mechanical system components during large-scale overhaul and conversion projects by using advanced engineering technologies combined with reverse engineering and accurate, predictive modeling tools. Planning processes are being created to incorporate the technologies developed by the project into contracted work in the shipyard and to assist the customer in making informed, accurate decisions about optimum approaches to real-world projects.
