Comparison Of Single-Use And Multiple-Use Electrodes For Sensory, Motor Threshold Amplitudes And Force Production, Lucia Maloy
Comparison Of Single-Use And Multiple-Use Electrodes For Sensory, Motor Threshold Amplitudes And Force Production, Lucia Maloy
Theses and Dissertations
Context: Electrodes play an important role in interfacing tissue with electrical stimulation devices. Manufacturers recommend that adhesive metallic mesh cloth electrodes be used no more than 10 times before they are discarded, however, clinically the electrodes are often used up to 30 times. Another concern is sanitation. When electrodes are used on different patients, there is a chance for cross-contamination and bacterial growth on the electrode. Objective: To compare amplitudes of perceived sensation, motor twitch and force produced at specific amplitudes using single-use electrodes that run no risk of cross-contamination, and multiple-use electrodes. Design: Mixed model ANOVA with the subject …

To accomplish this I reviewed current and prototype underwater foundation technologies in order to establish viable options for developers to use. I was also able to analyze a case study that conducted “an analysis and survey of the experiences and lessons learned by developers of offshore wind farms” in Europe. This case study focuses mainly …
Scalable Multi-Core Model Checking Fairness Enhanced Systems, Yang Liu, Jun Sun, Jin Song Dong
Scalable Multi-Core Model Checking Fairness Enhanced Systems, Yang Liu, Jun Sun, Jin Song Dong
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
Rapid development in hardware industry has brought the prevalence of multi-core systems with shared-memory, which enabled the speedup of various tasks by using parallel algorithms. The Linear Temporal Logic (LTL) model checking problem is one of the difficult problems to be parallelized or scaled up to multi-core. In this work, we propose an on-the-fly parallel model checking algorithm based on the Tarjan’s strongly connected components (SCC) detection algorithm. The approach can be applied to general LTL model checking or with different fairness assumptions. Further, it is orthogonal to state space reduction techniques like partial order reduction. We enhance our PAT …

Secure Ad Hoc Routing Protocols With Detection, Identification And Self-Healing Capabilities, Sivakumar Ayeegoundanpalayam Kulasekaran
Secure Ad Hoc Routing Protocols With Detection, Identification And Self-Healing Capabilities, Sivakumar Ayeegoundanpalayam Kulasekaran
Theses and Dissertations
Devices taking part in mobile ad hoc networks (MANET) co-operate with each other to route packets by strictly adhering to the ad hoc routing protocol in use. Malicious nodes taking part in co-operative routing can launch a wide variety of attacks to reduce the utility of MANETs. The aim of secure routing protocols is to ensure that MANETs can continue to function even in the face of malicious nodes. Secure routing protocols should have measures to dissuade attackers by detecting inconsistencies, identifying the perpetrator responsible for the inconsistency, and provide means to inhibit the role of misbehaving nodes. Most existing …

Decision-Based Data Fusion Of Complementary Features For The Early Diagnosis Of Alzheimer's Disease, Metin Ahiskali
Theses and Dissertations
As the average life expectancy increases, particularly in developing countries, the prevalence of Alzheimer's disease (AD), which is the most common form of dementia worldwide, has increased dramatically. As there is no cure to stop or reverse the effects of AD, the early diagnosis and detection is of utmost concern. Recent pharmacological advances have shown the ability to slow the progression of AD; however, the efficacy of these treatments is dependent on the ability to detect the disease at the earliest stage possible. Many patients are limited to small community clinics, by geographic and/or financial constraints. Making diagnosis possible at …

The Effects Of Switching Impulses On The Partial Discharge Activity And Breakdown Voltage Of 15 Kv Xlpe And Epr Cables, Jacob C (Jacob Curtis) Fulper
Theses and Dissertations
A growing trend in the electrical industry is to move away from overhead lines and towards underground distribution. The cables necessary for underground distribution are stressed in various ways, and one of the most ignored stresses is that of overvoltage caused by switching. The focus of this research is to determine the effects that high voltage switching impulses have on the electrical strength of medium voltage cable insulation. Accelerated aging was performed on multiple samples of XLPE and EPR cables by applying multitudes of switching impulses. At various stages of the aging process, partial discharge measurements were taken. At the …

Optimal Control Of Voltage And Power In Mvdc Multi-Zonal Shipboard Power System, Padmavathy Kankanala
Theses and Dissertations
Recent advancements in Voltage Source Converters (VSCs) of high-voltage and high-power rating had a significant impact on the development of Multi-Terminal HVDC (MTDC) power transmission systems. The U.S. Navy has proposed Multi-Zonal Medium Voltage DC (MVDC) Shipboard Power System (SPS) architecture for the next generation of their surface combatant. A Multi-Zonal MVDC SPS consists of several VSCs exchanging power through a DC network. Following a system fault or damage, the current flow pattern in the DC distribution grid will change and the DC voltages across the VSCs will assume new values. DC voltage reference or power reference settings of VSCs …
