| Abstract | In this research, the prototype of climbing robot carrying the electro-magnetic acoustic transducer (EMAT) probe and cameras to inspect the target position is developed. The EMAT probe can measure the thickness of the tubes without removing the scale covering the tubes. In order to reach the target position on each tube at the same height on the wall, the robot is designed to have mechanism switching from vertical motion to horizontal motion without steering. The adhesion force is provided by both magnetic wheels and the magnet bars under the robot. In the vertical direction, the robot climbs up and down using the belts driven by the magnetic wheels. For the horizontal motion, the magnetic wheels underneath of the robot provide locomotion for the robot. The feasibility of robot and EMAT device are tested. The results of tests are shown and discussed. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
