“…This activity has resulted in one fatality, and significant injuries with a high hazard factor need immediate medical attention (Table 8). According to Sanjana and Prathilothamai [74], Suryoputro et al [75], and Ilo et al [76], in the event of an emergency, a sprinkler and alarm system should be installed. Note: Pr-1 unpredicted, Pr-2 unpredicted, Pr-3 predicted, Pr-4, frequent, increasing danger/hazard-H1-H15, orange color-minor hazard, yellow color-moderate hazard.…”

Integrated Underground Mining Hazard Assessment, Management, Environmental Monitoring, and Policy Control in Pakistan

This study focused on the significance of underground mining in Pakistan, resulting in the employment of operational staff to undertake the primary tasks of this sector, such as explosions, rock excavation, mineral research, mining-supporting walls, and mine compactivity. Occupational accidents and illnesses arise due to the activities mentioned above because the working circumstances are not optimal. The decision-matrix risk-assessment (DMRA) approach, in which incidents are evaluated according to their severity and probability, was also utilized to improve working conditions, including public health and environment protection. To assess the risks and to select which actions should continue in the same manner, we highlighted hazards that need control measures and, as the last option, those that must be stopped. By taking into account the results of the study, corrective actions were proposed that can help avoid the occurrence of the presented accidents through applying occupational safety and health regulations issued by the Department of Minerals and Mines, which is a governmental entity responsible for both the issuing and the compliance to those regulations. The current study also outlined the requirements that must be reported under mining-related laws.

“…In the context of this study, the search is managed using UAVs, which typically require less infrastructure to deploy compared to other types of vehicles and have a higher degree of manoeuvrability [ 1 ]—which is a necessity in most SAR problems—but have a limited battery and payload capacity [ 2 , 3 ]. This makes them suitable for search and potentially for providing first aid (this highly depends on the drone model, mainly its payload capacity [ 4 , 5 ]), but less useful for the rescue part. Note that this is dependent on the specific aircraft in question, as there are many different types of both rotary-wing, fixed-wing, and hybrids models, as well as UAVs specific for different altitudes, e.g., the high-altitude pseudo satellites.…”

Search and Rescue (SAR) missions aim to search and provide first aid to persons in distress or danger. Due to the urgency of these situations, it is important to possess a system able to take fast action and effectively and efficiently utilise the available resources to conduct the mission. In addition, the potential complexity of the search such as the ruggedness of terrain or large size of the search region should be considered. Such issues can be tackled by using Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) equipped with optical sensors. This can ensure the efficiency in terms of speed, coverage and flexibility required to conduct this type of time-sensitive missions. This paper centres on designing a fast solution approach for planning UAV-assisted SAR missions. The challenge is to cover an area where targets (people in distress after a hurricane or earthquake, lost vessels in sea, missing persons in mountainous area, etc.) can be potentially found with a variable likelihood. The search area is modelled using a scoring map to support the choice of the search sub-areas, where the scores represent the likelihood of finding a target. The goal of this paper is to propose a heuristic approach to automate the search process using scarce heterogeneous resources in the most efficient manner.

“…The organizations of drone are in continuous condition of development as advanced in employed to monitor, control, operating and optimization of drone performances [3,4]. The drone design is complex to many automated systems which required carrying out the preferred functions [5][6][7][8][9][10]. Though, these technology adoptions are referred to flight control sensing system which is integrated to optimize the efficiency and performance maximization of drone behavioral [11,12].…”

This paper presents the design and simulation of air-fuel percentage sensors in drone engine control using Matlab. The applications of sensor engineering system have been pioneer in technology development and advancement of automated machine as complex systems. The integration of drone fuel sensor system is the major series components such as injector, pumps and switches. The suggested model is tuned to interface drone fuel system with fuel flow in order to optimize efficient monitoring. The sensor system is improved and virtualized in Simulink block set by varying the parameters with high range to observe the fuel utilization curves and extract the validated results. The obtained results show that the possibility of engine operation in critical conditions such as takeoff, landing, sharp maneuver and performance is applicable to turn off the system in case of break down in the sensor to ensure the safety of drone engine. HIGHLIGHTS The drone engine fuel rate sensor is designed and examined to determine the air-to-fuel ratio The suggested model is tuned to interface drone fuel system with fuel flow in order to optimize efficient monitoring The obtained results show that the possibility of using engine with different failure mode and fault considerations The represented control structure is simple, efficient and provides the required air-to-fuel ratio
