The objective of the project is to develop an automated monitoring system to accurately and reliably detect deterioration within gearboxes operating on an industrial forming line. This will involve reviewing, developing and testing one or more methodologies based on vibration signal measurement and analysis. In particular the work will focus on exploring existing potential methods, […]

“Seismocardiogram (SCG) is a signal that is captured by placing an accelerometer on the human chest. This signal captures very important timing information such as opening and closing of the heart valves. In addition to these timing information, the non-invasive nature of this signal makes it an attractive solution for remote monitoring of patients with […]

Les masques respiratoires pour enfants sont souvent mal adaptés à leur croissance. Dans le cas où le port d’un masque est nécessaire, par exemple pour les patients atteints de dystrophie neuromusculaire, ces masques peu adaptés créent des fuites d’air qui nuisent et même empêchent le bon fonctionnement de l’appareil de ventilation. Le réflexe est alors […]

Transparent electrodes (TEs) combine high optical transparency and electrical conductivity, useful in different devices such as light-emitting diodes, displays and solar cells. A highly competitive market of electronic devices, such as phones and flexible touch screens as well as a worldwide increasing demand for energy, drives research to improve the performance of TEs. However, mass […]

The only constant in communications networks is change. Software defined networking (SDN) and elastic optical networking (EON) technologies enable adaptation to change but their implementation is impeded by the rigidity of network infrastructure and specifically the optical transport layer. Analogous to the term ‘bare metal’ used to describe commodity electronics, ‘bare glass’ photonics technology is […]

With worldwide efforts to increase the utilization of renewable energy, traditional power distribution networks are being transformed into active distribution networks with the interconnection of distributed generation. The status of DGs connected to an active distribution network can change frequently, and this creates many challenges to network protection. The aim of this project is to […]

This four months internship project is to help Bristol Machine to flexible redesign a mechanical linked bucket for hard rock mining application with less time, money, failure, resource, materials cost and increase product quality, flexibility, productivity, and performance for various worldwide customers’ needs in mining industry. The proposed method will be computer-aid design, engineering, FEA […]

Ultrasound technology is widely used in medical diagnosis area. Its non-invasive, high resolution, no side effects and other features make it popular. The ultrasound sensor is the critical component and its performance decides the signal quality. A good sensor can stand the environment noise and supply high signal noise ratio (SNR) signal to the processors […]

The most common cause of chronic aortic insufficiency (AI), a backwards leaking of blood through the aortic valve, are congenital valve disease, degenerative valve disease, and primary diseases of the surrounding aorta. Current management of severe AI is to surgically replace the valve based upon generic 2D imaging measures of severity and progression. However, 4D […]

With my research project I wish to contribute to a body knowledge that will assist with Halsall’s current needs and future directions. A review of relevant literature on methods and procedures for designing more economical, fire-resistant buildings would serve Halsall by providing them with a reference works with which their design engineers can use to […]

The aim of this proposal is to assist in the development and validation of a dedicated 4D flow MRI analysis software for the evaluation of aortic valve insufficiency. Before being commercialized this software requires validation considering the large amount of data required to be pre-processed (over 2,000 files per case), elemental data corrections, data analysis […]
