ABSTRACT
The use and employment of small unmanned aerial systems (sUAS) in public safety and commercial applications has grown exponentially since their introduction into the consumer market. As of February 2020 there were over 436,633 registered commercial, public/government and other drones and 167,841 remote pilots certified.
Micro-mass sensors can be used for the detection of gases, organic cells, viruses and bacteria in a system. With today's growing need for immediate detection of viruses such as COVID-19, micro-mass sensors have become a viable and attractive option. As a demonstration of the capabilities of this sensor,
Wind energy is the most promising source of renewable energy in response to the emerging needs for replacement of the conventional power plants. Currently, the two main devices for generating electricity from wind energy are vertical axis wind turbines and horizontal axis wind turbines.
