Broad-scaled Avian Biodiversity Assessment with Passive Acoustic Monitoring and Artificial Intelligence

Many bird species are highly vocal, and this provides opportunities to monitor avian biodiversity by acoustic surveys. In recent decades, the use of Autonomous Recording Units (ARUs) has gained popularity as a mechanism to census birds through passive acoustic monitoring. Further, automatic algorithms for identifying bird species by their vocalizations have been developed to improve […]

Experimental and Numerical Studies of a New Quartz Atomizer for Vaping Devices

A new atomizer for vaping devices will be studied experimentally and numerically. The visualization of the flow inside the atomizer microchannels and the liquid film formed over to the top surface of the atomizer (with and without surface heating) will be attempted. Aerosol characterization using Phase Doppler Anemometer (PDA) will be conducted. In addition, numerical […]

Exploring patient and provider perceptions to guide optimization of electronic order sets and digital educational platforms for cirrhosis care

People with cirrhosis, a progressive scarring of the liver, often experience frequent and prolonged hospitalizations which have significant impacts to their quality of life. There are many areas for improvement in cirrhosis care such as the enhanced promotion of complication-specific order panels like that for hepatic encephalopathy, a serious complication caused by a buildup of […]

Optimization of Soil Parameters for Deep Excavations by Inverse Analysis

The proposed research aims to optimize soil model parameters through inverse analysis of deep excavations. Soil properties and their engineering behavior are the fundamental uncertainties among the many influential factors involved in deep excavations. Even though geotechnical investigations are usually conducted, the risks are still high due to the limited amount of soil samples extracted […]

Characterization and optimisation of muscle oxygen extraction and performance in elite judo athletes

This project will investigate the determinants of performance in the sport of judo to optimize training and enhance performance development. Judokas must perform multiple high-intensity efforts that cause fatigue, and most of their training is devoted to mitigating the development of fatigue during matches. However, our knowledge of key metabolic responses and adaptations is still […]
