Wake Characterization of a Cross-Flow Turbine
A cross-flow turbine wake is analyzed to better understand how these turbines affect the flow field in their immediate vicinity. Mean velocity, turbulence intensity, coherent turbulent kinetic energy, and Reynolds shear ... -
Walking and rolling: Evaluating technology to support multimodal mobility for individuals with disabilities
Mobility is considered a human right and enables freedom. Self-initiated mobility is imperative for development of physical, cognitive, visual, and sensory abilities, and independence. Engineers design technology to support ... -
Walking mode classification through myoelectric and inertial sensors for transtibial amputees
(2012-09-13)Myoelectric algorithms have the potential to provide motion intent information to a prosthetic system to allow the prosthetic to adapt biomimetically to changes in walking modality. While myoelectric algorithms have been ... -
Wavelet techniques for chaotic and fractal dynamics
(1999)A novel wavelet based denoising technique is developed and shown to be more effective on average than waveshrink in denoising contaminated chaotic signals. A chaotic beam experiment is used to verify its effectiveness.Correlation ... -
Wearable Carbon Nanotube Sensors: Fabrication and Applications for Bio/Chemical Sensors
With the advancement of micro/nanotechnology, wearable device technology is rapidly changing human lifestyle. Wearable devices armed with high-performance sensors potentially offer real-time health monitoring of human body ... -
Wearable Technology to Monitor Hand Movement during Constraint-Induced Movement Therapy for Children with Cerebral Palsy
Children with hemiplegic or unilateral cerebral palsy (uCP) have a preference to use only one hand, and if early intervention does not occur, children often avoid or never learn to use their paretic or impaired hand. ... -
Y.A.R.M – YARM’s Another Random Motion planner: Enabling Multiple Mobile Robots to Remove Debris in Industrial Environments
Waste Management is essential to the Manufacturing Industry, and debris is a side product of many different kinds of manufacturing processes. Nowadays, mobile robots, and stationary manipulators, with multiple degrees of ...
