Hi, my name is Nabil and this video deals with the project i carried out during my internship. This project consisted of developing ergonomics and automation in the laundry room. The company that hired me provides services for disabled people and one of these consists of washing and cleaning their dirty laundry. The mission aims to reduce the effort of loading and unloading laundry bags in the laundry room. 

Secondly, I had to automate the recording of the weight of the laundry bags. Indeed, the laundry activity represents the company’s core business, and the source of income is based on the unit price per kilogram of laundry processed. A touchscreen interface, a controller and computer have been programmed to carry out this task. The main difficulty encountered was finding the equipment at the lowest price to take into account budgetary constraints.

The team’s project is named Muphyn Benchmark, which involves the development of a software called Muphyn. This software is similar to Xcos and Simulink. The main objective of the project is to compare the performance of these different software tools.

To achieve this goal, Denis and Lohan conducted thorough comparisons of the three software programs, focusing on various aspects such as repeatability, accuracy, and simulation time. The tests were conducted under controlled conditions to ensure consistent and reliable results.

Moreover, as Muphyn operates on a block system, Denis and Lohan have implemented additional blocks to enhance the software’s functionality. These new blocks, coded in Python, cater specifically to the field of automation.

For more detailed information about the project, you can watch the explanatory video by following this link:

In summary, Muphyn Benchmark is an ongoing project aiming to assess and compare the performance of Muphyn software with other similar tools. Through meticulous testing and the addition of new blocks, the team is working towards creating a comprehensive and efficient software solution for automation.

Hello everyone,

This our project’s video for the Shell Eco-marathon.
As you will see here, it’s not about  the vehicle we are going to talk about but it’s all about the test bench we made. It is supposed to represent the vehicle in two different ways : The electric part with a little DC motor, and the mechanic part with a pulley. All that is supposed to represent an electric braking system, with energy recovering, just like in your hybrid or electric cars nowadays.

Well, it might look interesting at first, but let us explain how it works. The purpose of this is to run the engine, and make everything rotate at a certain speed and frequency. When everything is moving, we have simulated the kinetic energy we could have with a vehicle. The next step from there, is to switch off the DC motor, and recover the kinetic energy in electric energy by using supercapacitors.

Have you ever wondered how the Leslie effect works and how it sounds? We did, and we made one.
But we didn’t just make one with new parts otherwise it would have been too easy. Instead, we used what we had. The only parts we bought were the necessary ones. The ones we didn’t have and couldn’t make.
The video you’re about to see will trace the journey of four electromechanical engineers figuring out how to achieve their goal of making a Leslie speaker with « scraps ». Spoiler alert: Everything didn’t go as planned.
We will be speaking about what the challenge was, what we started with, what we ended up with, and how we managed to do it. Moreover, we’ll tell you the biggest issue we faced and how we resolved it and could have gained a lot of time avoiding it.

Although electrical resistors are generally small in size, they are indispensable and omnipresent elements in the design of electrical or electronic circuits. In order to differentiate their resistive values, a specific colour code has been introduced, which also makes it possible to sort them after use. In addition to requiring excellent eyesight, this painstaking work requires a great deal of patience.

In collaboration with second-year master’s students in electronics, we have found a solution to this problem. Discover the new “Sorting Machine” !

This machine is easy to use : simply place the resistors, in bulk, in a bowl. Then, determine the value of the resistors to be isolated, and the machine will sort them out thanks to an artificial intelligence.

Finally, all you have to do is put them back in a cupboard for the next project… you’ll avoid creating electronic waste, while saving a lot of time!

Welcome to the world of cooling towers!

Step into the realm of research and development at HELHa as we unravel, through a documentary, the secrets of cooling towers.

Our engineering team of HELHa students, Professor Esin Topal and Researcher Louis Forni, have spent their 1^st Master meticulously studying and analyzing a cooling tower located on the rooftop of the Ceref building in Mons.

Join us as we delve deeper into this fascinating subject with our reporter and engineering student Natacha Leroy.

Together, she’ll tell you all about cooling tower technology. How the cooling towers discharge heat from hot water into the atmosphere through evaporation. How the team measured and expressed the performance of this complex system, with the valuable insights from Professor Topal.

Come and listen to Researcher Louis Forni sharing his journey of testing, trials, and evaluations, while pushing the cooling tower to its limits.

So sit back, relax and get ready to be amazed by the incredible world of cooling towers!

Welcome!

The upcoming video focuses on harness racing. This fascinating discipline is part of the world of horse racing and features horses harnessed to a sulky, a type of lightweight chariot, and driven by a driver.

 Harness racing takes place on tracks specially designed for this discipline. These tracks are oval-shaped, marked by cones on the inside, and covered with a dirt surface to provide optimal traction for the horses. Our project is in partnership with Ghlin racecourse, represented by Mr. Serge Dufrasne, who plays the role of a client in the project.

 Harness racing generates great enthusiasm among sports betting enthusiasts. With money at stake, it is evident that the pressure has driven us to give our best. We are a team of three people working on this project : Kocadag Yusuf, Van den Bossche Benjamin and Reynoso Alessandro. But you will have the opportunity to listen to us.

Enjoy the video !
