Avoiding Covid-19 Using a 3D Digital Mock Up and Augmented Reality with Cobot in Digital Factory

The Fourth Industrial Revolution or Industry 4.0 is extremely relevant and important in manufacturing for several reasons. Failing to adopt the technology of the Fourth Industrial Revolution can cause organizations to fall behind, as their operations are not digitized enough in benchmarking competitors. A major industry as bicycle manufacturing needs to be transformed into a digital factory in order to keep up with the evolving technology. The objectives of this research are in designing a 3D digital mock up and Augmented Reality (AR) for bicycle frame production in the form of digital factory for increasing production capability by decreasing the break-even point whilst avoiding Covid-19 contraction using Tecnomatix Plant Simulation and Unity 3D programs. This research constructed three alternative digital factory layouts that are designed by using a 3D simulation program. The risk of Covid-19 contraction points and the three layouts of cost per unit are analyzed. The results show that the break-even point of the first to the third layouts with Automated Guided Vehicle (AGV) are 26,580, 26,322 and 25,354 units respectively. The result of the risk about Covid-19 contraction points from the first to the third layout with AGV are 21,272, 2,872 and 0 points respectively. This means the most appropriate layout for bicycle frame production is the third layout due to the best break-even point that can significantly avoid Covid-19 contraction. The benefit of this research is to integrate a 3D digital mock up, AR and Cobot including AGV to assist the resilience of operations with a dynamic industrial environment.

Data Distribution Service Converter Based on the Open Platform Communications Unified Architecture Publish–Subscribe Protocol

The open platform communications unified architecture (OPC UA) is a major industry-standard middleware based on the request–reply pattern, and the data distribution service (DDS) is an industry standard in the publish–subscribe form. The OPC UA cannot replace fieldbuses at the control and field levels. To facilitate real-time connectionless operation, the OPC Foundation added the publish–subscribe model—a new specification that supports broker functions, such as message queuing telemetry transport (MQTT), and advanced message queuing protocol (AMQP)—to the OPC UA Part 14 standard. This paper proposes a protocol converter for incorporation into the application layer of the DDS subscriber to facilitate interoperability among publisher–subscriber pairs. The proposed converter comprises a DDS gateway and bridge. The former exists inside the MQTT and AMQP brokers, which convert OPC UA publisher data into DDS messages prior to passing them on to the DDS subscriber. The DDS bridge passes the messages received from the DDS gateway to the OPC UA subscriber in the corresponding DDS application layer. The results reported in existing studies, and those obtained using the proposed converter, allow all devices supporting the OPC UA and OPC UA PubSub standards to realize DDS publish–subscribe interoperability.

A comprehensive study on Green& Sustainable Practices used by Selected Hotels of New Delhi

BACKGROUND: Hospitality& Tourism industry is a major industry contributing to 10% of the GDP of the country. wherein they have a significant economic, social, and ecological impact on nature. Today owing to the Pandemic, this sector is badly hit due to the closure of tourism operations and restricted movement of people across the country and globally. Tourism and hospitality definitely add to the generation of waste, but if managed systematically the environment can be protected from damage. Today mankind is hit by a virus and the reason is we have not respected the environment. Therefore, in recent years, the Indian Government has taken strict measures and made mandatory guidelines for hotels in tourist spots to comply with all environment-friendly practices like proper disposal of wet & dry garbage, recycling of water, sewage treatment plants installation in premises, horticulture, and minimal use of plastic, etc. Five Star hotels were generally assumed as a place to enjoy the vacation, using a swimming pool, and enjoying world cuisine but nowadays people have started asking for recycling paper, recycled linen, recycled amenities in the room, etc. With this changing trend, hotels need to adapt to a new approach and start using green initiatives which give rise to green and eco-friendly hotels. This in turn would benefit mankind, environment and a better future will be passed on as a legacy to coming generations. This paper, therefore, analyses the environment-friendly practices of selected hotels of Delhi and the awareness among the staff.
