Current Waveform Parameters of CN Tower lightning Return Strokes andM-Cornponents

Although several attempts have been carried out to derive statistics about eN Tower lightning current waveform parameters, which are essential for the design of appropriate protection systems, the results have been limited use because of the nature of the collected data. The absence of both the continuous and continuing currents from the collected data, made […]

Developing a Submaximal EMG-Assisted Subject-Specific Musculoskeletal Model of the Spine: Combined Computational and Experimental Study – Year two

There is no direct way to measure spinal loads, and existing methods are indirect and invasive; alternatively, musculoskeletal models can predict spinal loads accurately and economically. Existing musculoskeletal models of spine substantially simplify the spine and/or use optimization algorithms to estimate muscle forces. Thus, we aim to develop a subject-specific musculoskeletal model of the spine […]

Advanced Video Broadcasting Applications for Mobile Devices

To broadcast a video across the internet, digital video is first encoded to remove the spatial and temporal redundancy. The encoded video data is then transmitted at a lower bit rate or stored in a smaller hard disk without sacrificing too much displaying quality. Various video encoding standards have been developed in last decades. H.264/AVC […]

Novel Microwave Welding for Thermoplastic Polymer Components

Microwave welding is proposed as a fabrication technique for joining thermoplastic polymer based composites. Microwave welding uses microwave energy and in the present study, a domestic microwave has been proposed to carry out the microwave welding of the thermoplastic components. Thermoplastic materials studied in this project will be considered after referring technical literature and in […]
