Conventional eddy current using single-frequency excitation has limited material characterization capabilities. Enrichment of the spectral information of the signal with techniques such as multifrequency or swept frequency inspection could be employed to improve the inspection process. Broadband excitation is also implemented with time-domain inspection using pulsed eddy current PEC. The spectr...

Experimental laboratory work has been conducted to study electric signals of marble beams that have been subjected to three point bend tests. The specimens have suffered 12 abrupt loading steps up to failure and the corresponding BSC were recorded by means of copper electrodes placed in the lower surface of the sample. Alongside with the application of abrupt loading to the samples, BSC peaks w...

Introduction: Recent developments of radiotherapy techniques, require high accuracy detectors to determine the delivered dose in a small area. Chemical vapor deposition (CVD) or naturally growth diamond detectors which are commercially available are good candidates for this purpose. In these detectors two electrodes with high different electrical potential are deposited on both...

Symmetrical nature of mean of electrical signals during normal operating conditions is used in the fault detection task for dependable, robust, and simple fault detector implementation is presented in this work. Every fourth cycle of the instantaneous current signal, the mean is computed and carried into the next cycle to discover nonlinearities in the signal. A fault detection task is complete...

Due to the complex structures and fault conditions, accurate sensing of underground distribution cables is a difficult task. The automation system (DAS) indicator (FIS) are only applicable severe faults. In addition, current DAS FIS all based on centralized data processing (CDS), increasing communication pressure time main station. Considering advantages edge computing, this paper investigates ...

A combined electrodeposition-ETAAS technique has been applied to the analysis of Pb, Cd, Co, Ni, Cr and Mn in biological samples in order to overcome interferences and to minimize sample pretreatment. It requires minimal sample preparation with the electrolysis process aiding partial decomposition of the organic matrix, adequate for the release and deposition of trace elements. In an initia...

We present an analysis of short-time time-reversal on audio signals. Based on our analysis, we define parameters that can be used to control the digital effect and explain the effect each parameter has on the output. We further study the case of 50% overlap-add, then use this for a real-time implementation. Depending on the window length, the effect can modify the output sound variously, from a...

In this paper, we present a high accuracy laser range finder and velocimeter using ultra-fast time-to-digital converter (TDC). The system operation is based on the measuring the round-trip time of a narrow laser pulse. A low-dark current high-speed PIN photodiode is used to detect the triggered laser beam and to produce start signal. The pulsed laser diode generates 45W optical power at 30ns du...
