This project focuses on developing an autonomous navigation simulation in MATLAB and Simulink. The system integrates sensor fusion, localization, object tracking, and path planning to navigate a virtual environment. Algorithms such as “Kalman Filter”, “SLAM”, and “RRT” are used and tested in dynamic scenarios with moving obstacles and sensor noise. Performance is evaluated based on localization accuracy and obstacle avoidance. This simulation demonstrates how efficient algorithms and existing tools may be combined to create a reliable real-time autonomous system. Our work supports industries such as autonomous vehicles, robotics, and aerospace, emphasizing the importance of simulation before real-world implementation.

Controlling heat transfer during the cooling of metals is a key factor in many industrial and metallurgical applications. Intensive and efficient heat transfer is essential in industrial cooling processes. This study explores intensive cooling by dipping high-temperature metals in salt solutions, focusing on optimizing cooling efficiency through precise control of CaCO3, K2SO4, and MgSO4 concentrations. By measuring heat dissipation rates, it analyses how different solution compositions influence thermal behavior. The goal is to enhance industrial cooling processes by maximizing heat transfer efficiency. Understanding the relationship between salt concentration and cooling performance provides insights into improving quenching techniques and optimizing liquid-based heat transfer systems.
Keywords: heat transfer, intensive cooling, quenching, salt solutions
