Fuel Tank Strap Fatigue Sensitivity Study under Fuel Level Variation and Payload Variation

Fuel theft from vehicles is one of the major problems, the world is facing today. The reason for fuel theft is steady increase in the price. Hence fuel theft is a major concern for everyone, especially the logistics and fuel transport companies. These companies are facing significant losses due fuel theft from their fleet of vehicles which usually include heavy vehicles like trucks, lorries etc. There are several solutions which are used by these companies to prevent or minimize fuel theft which include monitoring cameras, additional security, GPS tracking of vehicles etc. We have come up with this project to prevent fuel theft, especially in fuel transport vehicles. Our proposed system detects any change in fuel level of a fuel tank using ultrasonic sensor and with the integration of GSM module, the message regarding the change in fuel level and the location of the vehicle (detected using GPS) is sent to the owner or the management. The additional feature of our project is, we can lock the fuel tank remotely if needed by the owner.

Structure and usage of computerized fuel check which estimates the precise dimension of fuel including while fuel filling process. Presently a-days all fuel bunks having sorts of advanced presentations unit so as to show the estimation of fuel adding to the vehicle. In this paper we have proposed a method to quantify the measure of fuel accessible in tank. This framework carefully shows the dimension of fuel inside the tank by utilizing ultrasonic sensor and fuel flow sensor and these sensors are interfaced with an advancement board-Arduino. In this manner, it is an effective framework to distinguish the fuel volume in the fuel tank, to get quick perusing of fuel volume and to stay away from oil burglaries at the different oil siphons at the time of filling of tanks. In addition, if the vehicle is given to colleague to fill the fuel and to use that for some distance, this paper identifies that whether the vehicle is used for particular distance or the fuel that is already in tank is used by the colleague

Level Monitoring

Komatsu PC200-8M0 excavators operate mostly in the mining and forestry sector that covers a very large land area up to thousands hectares. Operation of this excavator requires a fuel tank for refueling process. In many cases, there were fuel thefts from the fuel tank of this excavator because the excavator were located in remote area. To overcome this problem, it is necessary to develop a fuel monitoring tool that can monitor and send warnings to the excavator owner if there is any fuel access into the excavator fuel tank during the rest time of the excavator. The monitoring tool is developed by using a NODEMCU ESP8266 microcontroller that connected to the internet network so that it will be able to communicate with the Thingspeak webserver. With internet access, the monitoring process can be carried out by using a computer and also smart mobile phone.

The need for efficient public transportation system such as buses is rapidly increased due to the increasing in population, the students need to predict the arrival time of the bus and then plan their journey from their home. Fuel monitoring have been the major problem that most of bus companies looking to solve. Due to the rapid advancement in technology it had been designed and implemented almost in every vehicle nowadays. This system develops a bus tracking and monitoring the fuel to provide a facility for the management requirements by the administrator. This system based on Arduino, GSM/GPS by which we can predict arrival time in addition to graphically showing the bus location on Google map. The use of the fuel sensor in this system is to monitor the fuel level. The design also enables the owner of the buses to monitor the bus instantaneously because the system administrator can easily maintained database information of buses and its fuel tank at any time of the service. Our project is about to design and implement a cost effective and efficient bus tracking system in order to avoid bus passenger�s unnecessary waiting in the bus stops and administrator could maintain the fuel more efficiently.

The Given

Each year, people within the world are progressively utilizing vehicles particularly motorbikes as their common means of transportation. Beside the increment of motorbike clients, motorbike robbery is additionally existing wild over a long time. In this consideration, a framework had been created for burglary anticipation of motorbike in a less demanding and quicker way. The client of this framework will be informed through an alarm, once the motorbike has been moved in a long remove or in case any wires they disengage to stolen. The bike theft is identified easily through Raspberry Pi Technology with the help of relay operations based on hardware and interlinked with software in mobile application. Whenever the bike is tried to steal or getting away unaware of user, the relay circuit gets activated in the bike and gives buzzer sound with bright lighting indicating as alert to the user in his/her mobile application. Another System idea was likely to get notified relative user for accident of a bike in any condition and to represent fuel levels in the two wheelers in terms of liters. Both the given system are dependable on mobile application like blynk and with Google Assistant enables the user to give the alert to the user is forging with accident. Gyroscope fixed in bike with sensors signaling Raspberry Pi which in turn user gets notification at any time. On other case if user is free from any injury he/she can reset the operation provided in the system. Finally users sometimes find difficulty ahead of analog representation of fuel in two wheeler to know the travel arrangements. So in this system ultrasonic technology implementing in the bike placed at the fuel tank lid senses the fuel level in bike and sends the resulting data to the user through same mobile application with the help of Raspberry Pi.

This study aims to simulate a telemetry system monitoring the level of the fuel level at an SMS-based gas station using an ultrasonic sensor integrated with the Arduino Uno microcontroller. The gas station's fuel tank was simulated using a 5 liter reservoir, while the HC-SR04 ultrasonic sensor was used to detect fuel level. The SIM800L module is used as a sender of information messages about the fuel level at a predetermined condition. This system is equipped with an LCD as a viewer when the data level is read. Based on testing the developed system can function well, shown by the average length of time the process of sending messages from reading the level limit on the tank, until the receipt of messages on mobile phones of 7.6 seconds. While the success rate of reading to the level of fuel level and sending automatic messages on the system reaches 100%.Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk membuat simulasi sistem telemetri pemantauan level ketinggian BBM di SPBU berbasis SMS gateway menggunakan sensor ultrasonik yang diintegrasikan dengan mikrokontroler Arduino Uno.

Two separate studies investigated race and sex differences in normal auditory sensitivity. Study I measured thresholds at 500, 1000, and 2000 cps of 23 white men, 26 white women, 21 negro men, and 24 negro women using the method of limits. In Study II thresholds of 10 white men, 10 white women, 10 negro men, and 10 negro women were measured at 1000 cps using four different stimulus conditions and the method of adjustment by means of Bekesy audiometry. Results indicated that the white men and women in Study I heard significantly better than their negro counterparts at 1000 and 2000 cps. There were no significant differences between the average thresholds measured at 1000 cps of the white and negro men in Study II. White women produced better auditory thresholds with three stimulus conditions and significantly more sensitive thresholds with the slow pulsed stimulus than did the negro women in Study II.
