An Insight into Automatic Engine Locking Systems with Alcohol Detection
Abstract: In this research, we proposed an enhanced Arduino UNO-based alcohol detection method for use in a car's ignition locking system. The output is transformed into a readout that represents the breath alcohol level of the breath sample using a microcontroller. This study is utilised as a component of an overall ignition locking system for cars that forbids driving when inebriated. When a driver exceeds the legal limit after consuming alcohol …

Experimental Study on Charging Conditions of a Single Component DDT Detonator Using Nickel Hydrazine Nitrate
Abstract: As a salt of a coordination compound of nickel, nickel hydrazine nitrate (NHN) is an energetic substance with characteristics halfway between those of primary and secondary explosives. It is less sensitive to friction and mechanical impact than other primary explosives, although it is highly sensitive to flames. NHN is not very dangerous to handle, but it explodes readily when exposed to flame. This property makes it possible to fabricate safety …
