Design and kinematic analysis of parallel robot for ankle rehabilitation
(Trans Tech Publications, 2013)
Ankle injury is one of the most common injuries in sports or domestic related accidents. This injury can usually be treated via a number of rehabilitation exercises. However, currently rehabilitation of ankle injury directly ...
Moving vehicle detection using time domain statistical features
(Trans Tech Publications, 2014)
The Hearing Impaired People (HIP) cannot distinguish the sound from a moving vehicle approaching from their behind. Since, it is difficult for hearing impaired to hear and judge sound information and they often encounter ...
The effect of surfactant extraction method on pore characteristics of mesoporous carbonated hydroxyapatite
(Trans Tech Publications, 2014)
Incorporated with pore sizes of 2-50 nm, CHA was found to be a promising drug delivery agent for disease treatment and could be a carrier for different types of proteins. A desired drug delivery system should consist of ...
Analysis of exhaust muffler with micro-perforated panel
(Journal of Vibroengineering, 2013)
An expansion chamber muffler with the use of a micro-perforated panel (MPP) was developed to improve the acoustic performance. A simulation was carried out using the SysNoise application in the LMS Virtual Lab based on the ...
Neural network performance comparison in infant pain expression classifications
(Trans Tech Publications, 2014)
Infant pain is a non-stationary made by infants in response to certain situations. This infant facial expression can be used to identify physical or psychology status of infant. The aim of this work is to compare the ...
Classification of driver drowsiness level using wireless EEG
(Przegląd Elektrotechniczny, 2013)
In this work, wireless Electroencephalogram (EEG) signals are used to classify the driver drowsiness levels (neutral, drowsy, high drowsy and sleep stage1) based on Discrete Wavelet Packet Transform (DWPT). Two statistical ...
General lifetime damage model for glass fibre reinforced epoxy (GRE) composite pipes under multiaxial loading
(Trans Tech Publications, 2014)
This paper presents the modelling of a general lifetime performance for glass fibre reinforced epoxy (GRE) composite pipes similar to the well-known Tsai-Hill interactive failure criterion. Tsai Hill criterion is based on ...
An Ant Colony System for Solving DNA Sequence Design Problem in DNA Computing
(ICIC International, 2012-10)
Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is a nucleic acid that contains the genetic information used in the development and functioning of all known existing organisms. In DNA computing, a set of DNA sequences is involved in solving ...
Emergence of discrete and abstract state representation through reinforcement learning in a continuous input task
(Springer-Verlag, 2013)
"Concept" is a kind of discrete and abstract state representation, and is considered useful for efficient action planning. However, it is supposed to emerge in our brain as a parallel processing and learning system through ...
Effectiveness–NTU correlation for low temperature PCM encapsulated in spheres
(Elsevier Ltd., 2012-05)
The applicability of the effectiveness–NTU method for characterising a PCM thermal energy storage system was experimentally investigated. The system consisted of PCM encapsulated in spheres with a liquid heat transfer ...
