Established techniques for characterizing a layer on a substrate system via surface acoustic wave (SAW) dispersion measurement are often slow due to the need for scanning excitation or detection positions. We present a method for…

In the realm of signal processing, frequency and spectrum detection are fundamental tasks that can be computationally intensive. This project leverages the power of FPGAs to perform wavelet analysis on an input signal. The goal is to detect…

A photonics-assisted microwave pulse detection and frequency measurement scheme is proposed. The unknown microwave pulse is converted to the optical domain and then injected into a fiber loop for pulse replication, which makes it easier to…

Cuffless blood pressure (BP) estimation based on Pulse Transit Time (PTT) has emerged as a promising solution for continuous health monitoring. However, conventional models relying on the Moens-Korteweg equation often fail during rapid…

A compact versatile photoacoustic (PA) sensor for trace gas detection is reported. The sensor is based on an integrating sphere as the PA absorption cell with an organ pipe tube attached to increase the sensitivity of the PA sensor. The…

We present the characterisation of the most recent parametric transducers designed to enhance the Mario Schenberg Gravitational Wave Detector sensitivity. The transducer is composed of a microwave re-entrant cavity that attaches to the…

We present a new type of transducer capable of measuring local pore fluid pressure in jacketed rock samples under elevated confining pressure conditions. The transducers are passive (strain-gauge based), of small size (7 mm in diameter at…

Bioimpedance measurements are a non-invasive method to determine the composition of organic tissue. For measuring the complex bioimpedance between two electrodes, an alternating current with a constant amplitude is injected into the tissue.…

Pulmonary Arterial Wedge Pressure (PAWP) is an essential cardiovascular hemodynamics marker to detect heart failure. In clinical practice, Right Heart Catheterization is considered a gold standard for assessing cardiac hemodynamics while…

Several centimeters below the skin lie multiple biomarkers, such as glucose, oxygenation, and blood flow. Monitoring these biomarkers regularly and in a non-invasive manner would enable early insight into metabolic status and vascular…

Goal: Although photoplethysmogram (PPG) and electrocardiogram (ECG) signals can be used to estimate blood pressure (BP) by extracting various features, the changes in morphological contours of both PPG and ECG signals due to various…

"Mayer waves" are long-period (6 to 12 seconds) oscillations in arterial blood pressure, which have been observed and studied for more than 100 years in the cardiovascular system of humans and other mammals. A mathematical model of the…

We demonstrate the design, fabrication and use of a dual electrode PMUT (Piezoelectric Micromachined Ultrasound Transducer) integrated with a microfluidic channel as a fluid density sensor in both static and dynamic density-change…

A pulse oximeter is an optical device that monitors tissue oxygenation levels. Traditionally, these devices estimate the oxygenation level by measuring the intensity of the transmitted light through the tissue and are embedded into everyday…

Non-invasive measurement of the arterial blood speed gives rise to important healthinformation such as cardio output and blood supplies to vital organs. The magnitude andchange in arterial blood speed are key indicators of the health…

Photoplethysmogram (PPG) signal-based blood pressure (BP) estimation is a promising candidate for modern BP measurements, as PPG signals can be easily obtained from wearable devices in a non-invasive manner, allowing quick BP measurement.…

This study uses a one dimensional fluid dynamics arterial network model to infer changes in hemodynamic quantities associated with pulmonary hypertension in mice. Data for this study include blood flow and pressure measurements from the…

This paper proposes a prototype of a new biofeedback training based on mathematical models of cardiovascular control. For this purpose we develop a low-cost device that is able to record and process arterial pulse wave via…

Left ventricular assist devices (LVADs) can provide mechanical support for a failing heart as bridge to transplant and destination therapy. Physiological control systems for LVADs should be designed to respond to changes in hemodynamic…

Method: In this study, a new method is introduced for distinguishing noise-free segments of ECG from noisy segments that use sample amplitude dispersion with an adoptive threshold for variance of samples amplitude and a method which uses…
