Hypovigilance detection using energy of electrocardiogram signals
(NISCAIR PUBLICATIONS, 2012-12)
Driver drowsiness and driver inattention are the major causes for road accidents leading to severe traumas such as physical injuries, deaths, and economic losses. This necessitates the need for a system that can alert the ...
Automated thresholding in radiographic image for welded joints
(Taylor & Francis, 2012)
Automated detection of welding defects in radiographic images becomes non-trivial when uneven illumination, contrast and noise are present. In this paper, a new surface thresholding method is introduced to detect defects ...
Modified global and modified linear contrast stretching algorithms: New colour contrast enhancement techniques for microscopic analysis of malaria slide images
(Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2012)
Malaria is one of the serious global health problem, causing widespread sufferings and deaths in various parts of the world. With the large number of cases diagnosed over the year, early detection and accurate diagnosis ...
Probability Distribution of Arm Trajectory for Motion Estimation and Gesture Recognition
(American Scientific Publishers, 2012-06-30)
In the human motion measurement, motion capture system is used to record the movement of the human body by using different types of sensors such as a magnetic position sensor, a mechanical motion detector and a vision ...
Advancements in Transmitters and Sensors for Biological Tissue Imaging in Magnetic Induction Tomography
(MDPI AG, 2012-05-29)
Magnetic Induction Tomography (MIT), which is also known as Electromagnetic Tomography (EMT) or Mutual Inductance Tomography, is among the imaging modalities of interest to many researchers around the world. This noninvasive ...
Optimising PCM thermal storage systems for maximum energy storage effectiveness
(Elsevier Ltd., 2012-09)
A new performance parameter for PCM thermal storage systems, the energy storage effectiveness, is defined. This parameter can be used to optimise the design of any PCM thermal storage system to maximise the use of the ...
Sensor modeling for portable Electrical Capacitance Tomography system using simulation by COMSOL Multiphysics
(Innovative Computing, Information and Control (ICIC) International, 2012-10)
This work presents the development process for modeling a 16-segmented portable ECT (Electrical Capacitance Tomography) sensor (using FEM software package COMSOL Multiphysics). The physical sensors are 3D dimensional but ...
Investigation of conducting pins in sphere filled with phase change material for enhancing heat transfer in thermal energy storage
(Trans Tech Publications., 2012)
The utilisation of phase change material (PCM) for thermal energy storage (TES) can significantly enhance the energy savings achievable with renewable thermal systems. Sphere based packed bed systems have been used as TES ...
Evaluate the effects of various surface roughness on the tribological characteristics under dry and lubricated conditions for Al-Si alloy
(Scientific Research Publishing Inc. All rights reserved., 2012-07)
The effect of surface roughness average of hypereutectic aluminum silicon alloys (with 16 wt% Si) on the friction and wear was investigated. Various surface roughness average (Ra) of different degrees was verified as well ...
Review on interaction between electromagnetic field and biological tissues
(International Frequency Sensor Association (IFSA), 2012)
The objective of this paper is to have a look on the interaction of electromagnetic field (EM) on biological tissue from the view of physiological and electrical engineering. The understanding of the phenomena in the ...
