Gas leaks are an important safety issue in oil and gas production. During the past fifteen years, a considerable number of studies have was made about how to detect and localize gas leaks. Equipped with sensors measuring the point concentration of specific substances, a variety of mobile robots and technologies have been looking for gas sources. The emergence of new approaches with multiple sensors has enabled a detailed gas detection analysis of the entire pipeline. This book presented a real-time system to detect abnormal events on gas pipes, by developing a data monitoring system to...

This book discuses two methods of works for contribution to mobile robotic system projects. The main contribution deals with the problems of Simultaneous localization and Mapping of an autonomous mobile robot in unknown indoor environments that are used in different applications. Navigation and mapping method in an indoor environment in main contribution based on the behavior of the robot that has been developed for fully automatic navigating by using wall following technique theory with building 2D map for indoor environment by using sonar sensors and also used encoders to determine the...
