Proper functionalization of electrode surfaces and/or nanomaterials plays a crucial role in the preparation of electrochemical (bio)sensors and their resulting performance. In this context, copper(I)-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) has b...

To improve the fault diagnosis performance for rotating machinery, an efficient, noise-resistant end-to-end deep learning (DL) algorithm is proposed based on the advantages of the wavelet packet transform in vibration signal processing (the capabilit...

The use of solar thermal power plants is considered a cost-effective alternative to produce renewable energy. Unlike other energy installations, in this type of plants the transfer and storage of energy has been solved by using molten salts. These sa...

An underdetermined direction of arrival (DOA) estimation method of wideband linear frequency modulated (LFM) signals is proposed without grid mismatch. According to the concentration property of LFM signal in the fractional Fourier (FRF) domain, the...

Food standards and quality control are important means to ensure public health. In the last decade, melamine has become a rather notorious example of food adulteration: Spiking products with low-cost melamine in order to feign high amino acid content...

Geometric calibration is an important means of improving the absolute positioning accuracy of space-borne synthetic aperture radar imagery. The conventional calibration method is based on a calibration field, which is simple and convenient, but requi...

Physical contact inevitably occurs during robot interaction with outside environments. A robot should have the ability to detect and distinguish whether a physical interaction between a human and the robot is contact or collision, so as to ensure hum...

Human posture and movement analysis is important in the areas of rehabilitation, sports medicine, and virtual training. However, the development of sensors with good accuracy, low cost, light weight, and suitability for long durations of human motion...

Surface electromyography (sEMG) signals comprise electrophysiological information related to muscle activity. As this signal is easy to record, it is utilized to control several myoelectric prostheses devices. Several studies have been conducted to p...

Mobile crowd sensing (MCS) is a new computing paradigm for the internet of things, and it is widely accepted as a powerful means to achieve urban-scale sensing and data collection. In the MCS campaign, the smart mobilephone users can detect their sur...
