Prediction of Natural Radiation (UV) Protection in Industrial Safety Helmets Depending on Color Factor Using Fuzzy Logic

Öz

This article presents the ultraviolet protection factor of helmet colors. UVR exposure dose distributions using helmets as sun protection under various exposure conditions were estimated. Increasing the thermal comfort of safety helmets has become a major concern of helmet designers. Helmets provide simple and convenient protection against UV rays. Ultraviolet Protection Factor (UPF) is widely used to determine the degree of protection of helmets from UV radiation. A predictive model for the size of helmet colors was derived, saved by general logic programming. While developing the prediction model for UPF, helmet outer shell temperature color components were taken into account throughout the period. The blue color has the greatest impact on the ultraviolet protection factor of helmets. This study provides recommendations for engineering helmets with adequate ultraviolet protection. The results show good agreement between actual and predicted values.

Renk Faktörüne Bağlı Olarak Endüstriyel Güvenlik Baretlerinde Doğal Radyasyon (UV) Korumasının Bulanık Mantık ile Tahmini

Öz

Bu makale, baret renklerinin ultraviyole koruma faktörü üzerindeki etkilerini sunmaktadır. Baretlerin çeşitli maruz kalma koşullarında güneşten korunma etkinliğini UVR maruziyet dozlarını dağılımları tahmin edilmiştir. İş güvenliği baretlerinin termal konforunu artırmak baret tasarımcılarının en büyük ilgi alanlarından biri haline gelmiştir. Baretler UV ışınlarına karşı basit ve kullanışlı bir koruma sağlar. Baretlerin UV radyasyonundan korunma derecesini belirlemek için Ultraviyole Koruma Faktörü (UPF) yaygın olarak kullanılır. Baret renklerinin etkisini tanımlamak için bulanık mantık programlamayla belirlenen tahmine dayalı bir model türetildi. UPF için tahmin modeli geliştirilirken süre, baret dış kabuk sıcaklığı renk bileşenleri dikkate alınmıştır. Mavi renk, baretlerin ultraviyole koruma faktörü üzerinde en büyük etkiye sahiptir. Bu çalışma, yeterli ultraviyole korumasına sahip baretlerin mühendisliğine yönelik tavsiyeler sunulmuştur. Sonuçlar deneysel ve tahmin edilen değerler arasında çok iyi bir uyum olduğunu göstermektedir.
