Pain is a complex term that describes various sensations that create discomfort in various ways or types inside the human body. Generally, pain has consequences that range from mild to severe in different organs of the body and will depend on the way...
With the evolution of the Internet and the introduction of third-party platforms, a diversified supply chain has gradually emerged. In contrast to the traditional single sales channel, companies can also increase their revenue by selling through mult...
The use of Inertial Measurement Units (IMUs) can provide embedded motion data to improve clinical application. The objective of this study was to validate a newly designed IMU system. The validation is provided through two main methods, a classical s...
Efforts to develop high-energy laser (HEL) weapons that are capable of being integrated and operated aboard naval platforms have gained an increased interest, partially due to the proliferation of various kinds of unmanned systems that pose a critica...
In coal mining operations, coalbed methane is one of the potential hazards that must be extracted to prevent an explosion of the accumulated gas and environmental pollution. One of the mechanisms is using microwave irradiation so that the thermal str...
Pattern analysis is the process where characteristics of big data can be recognized using specific methods. Recognition of the data, especially images, can be achieved by applying spatial models, explaining the neighborhood structure of the patterns....
Increasing competition and loss of revenues force newsrooms to explore new digital solutions. The new solutions employ artificial intelligence and big data techniques such as machine learning and knowledge graphs to manage and support the knowledge w...
Metal casting is an industrially important manufacturing process offering a superior combination of design flexibility, productivity and cost-effectiveness, but has limitations due to filling related defects. Several semisolid casting processes are a...
Electrospinning is often investigated for biotechnological applications, such as tissue engineering and cell growth in general. In many cases, three-dimensional scaffolds would be advantageous to prepare tissues in a desired shape. Some studies thus...
Some complex digital circuits must host various operating systems in a single electronic platform to make real-time and not-real-time tasks compatible or assign different priorities to current applications. For this purpose, some hardware–softw...
Bio-inspired legged robots have the potential to traverse uneven terrains in a very efficient way. The effectiveness of the robot gait depends on the joint symmetry of the robot; variations in joint symmetries can result in different types of gaits s...
This paper presents the components and integrated outcome of a system that aims to achieve early detection, monitoring and mitigation of pandemic outbreaks. The architecture of the platform aims at providing a number of pandemic-response-related serv...
A very large number of scientific papers have been published in the literature on wearable antennas of several types, structure and functionality. The main focus is always antenna efficiency from an engineering point of view. However, antenna integra...
A digital elevation model (DEM) represents the topographic surface of the Earth and is an indispensable source of data in many applications, such as flood modeling, infrastructure design and land management. DEM data at high spatial resolution and hi...
The stimulus to carry out this research was to identify and propose a secure framework for the Internet of Things (IoT). Due to the massive accessibility and interconnection of IoT devices, systems are at risk of being exploited by hackers. Therefore...
One’s internal state is mainly communicated through nonverbal cues, such as facial expressions, gestures and tone of voice, which in turn shape the corresponding emotional state. Hence, emotions can be effectively used, in the long term, to for...
The work is devoted to the study of technology that can be used to obtain lithium-containing ceramics of the Li2+4xZr4−xO3 type using the method of solid-phase synthesis combined with thermal annealing at a temperature of 1500 °C. A distinc...
Social networks are essential resources to obtain information about people’s opinions and feelings towards various issues as they share their views with their friends and family. Suicidal ideation detection via online social network analysis ha...
The electronic structures of the luminescent center ions Cr3+ and Fe3+ in the deep red phosphors LiAl5O8:Cr3+, α-Al2O3:Cr3+, and γ-LiAlO2:Fe3+ were calculated by the DV-Xα method, in which the local distortion induced by the replace...
By bringing industrial-grade robustness and reliability to Ethernet, Time Sensitive Networking (TSN) offers an IEEE standard communication technology that enables interoperability between standard-conformant industrial devices from any vendor. It als...
A reliable state-of-the-art obstacle detection algorithm is proposed for a mobile application that will analyze in real time the data received by an external sonar device and decide the need to audibly warn the blind person about near field obstacles...
