Vibration measurements have been used to reliably diagnose performance problems in machinery and related mechanical products. A vibration data collector can be used effectively to measure and analyze the machinery vibration content in…
Respiratory ailments are increasing globally at an alarming rate and are currently one of the leading factors of death and infirmity worldwide. Among respiratory diseases, those linked to poor air quality and pollutants are increasing at a…
The monitoring of diver health during emergency events is crucial to ensuring the safety of personnel. A non-invasive system continuously providing a measure of the respiration rate of individual divers is exceedingly beneficial in this…
Monitoring respiration parameters such as respiratory rate could be beneficial to understand the impact of training on equine health and performance and ultimately improve equine welfare. In this work, we compare deep learning-based methods…
In this paper, we introduce a novel algorithm designed to isolate individual respiratory cycles on a thoracic respiratory inductance plethysmography signal. The algorithm locates breaths using signal processing and statistical methods and…
Objective: Exploit accelerometry data for an automatic, reliable, and prompt detection of spontaneous circulation during cardiac arrest, as this is both vital for patient survival and practically challenging. Methods: We developed a machine…
Respirators provide protection from inhalation exposure to dangerous substances, such as chemicals and infectious particles, including SARS-Covid-laden droplets and aerosols. However, they are prone to exposure to stale air as the masks…
Circuit breakers (CBs) play an important role in modern society because they make the power transmission and distribution systems reliable and resilient. Therefore, it is important to maintain their reliability and to monitor their…
Smoke curtains are typically used in public-access buildings in connexion with ventilation effects without considering a crossed design. This paper aims to understand the fire smoke behaviour in the context of the interaction between…
The issue of failed weaning is a critical concern in the intensive care unit (ICU) setting. This scenario occurs when a patient experiences difficulty maintaining spontaneous breathing and ensuring a patent airway within the first 48 hours…
Isothermal rebreathing has been proposed as an experimental technique for estimating the alveolar levels of hydrophilic volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in exhaled breath. Using the prototypic test compound acetone we demonstrate that the…
Breathing monitoring is crucial in healthcare for early detection of health issues, but traditional methods face challenges like invasiveness, privacy concerns, and limited applicability in daily settings. This paper introduces light…
We develop a simple three compartment model based on mass balance equations which quantitatively describes the dynamics of breath methane concentration profiles during exercise on an ergometer. With the help of this model it is possible to…
Fires in industrial facilities pose special challenges to firefighters, e.g., due to the sheer size and scale of the buildings. The resulting visual obstructions impair firefighting accuracy, further compounded by inaccurate assessments of…
The process of human speech production involves coordinated respiratory action to elicit acoustic speech signals. Typically, speech is produced when air is forced from the lungs and is modulated by the vocal tract, where such actions are…
Changing public perceptions and government regulations have led to the widespread use of low-cost air quality monitors in modern indoor spaces. Typically, these monitors detect air pollutants to augment the end user's understanding of her…
Breathing disorders such as sleep apnea is a critical disorder that affects a large number of individuals due to the insufficient capacity of the lungs to contain/exchange oxygen and carbon dioxide to ensure that the body is in the stable…
Cough is a protective reflex conveying information on the state of the respiratory system. Cough assessment has been limited so far to subjective measurement tools or uncomfortable (i.e., non-wearable) cough monitors. This limits the…
This work, in a pioneering approach, attempts to build a biometric system that works purely based on the fluid mechanics governing exhaled breath. We test the hypothesis that the structure of turbulence in exhaled human breath can be…
Viral spread has been intermittently threatening human life over time. Characterizing the viral concentration and modelling the viral transmission are, therefore, considered major milestones for enhancing viral detection capabilities. This…
