background: fetal heart rate (fhr) extracted from abdominal electrocardiogram (ecg) is a powerful non-invasive method in appropriately assessing the fetus well-being during pregnancy. despite significant advances in the field of electrocardiography, the analysis of fetal ecg (fecg) signal is considered a challenging issue which is mainly due to low signal to noise ratio (snr) of fecg. objective...

this paper presents a detailed small-signal and transient analysis of a full bridge pwm dc-dc converter designed for high voltage, high power applications using an average model. the derived model is implemented in a typical system and used to produce the small-signal and transient characteristics of the converter. results obtained in the analysis of the high voltage and high power design examp...

The hydro turbine dynamics have a considerable influence on the dynamic stability of power system. In the study of dynamic stability, the system is modeled by the linear differential equations (small  signal analysis). Small signal stability of power systems is needed in all conditions and only is dependent on the conditions of power system performance before commotion occurrence. This paper pr...

This paper presents a comprehensive case study on electro-mechanical analysis of MEMS[1] variable capacitors. Using the fundamental mechanical and electrical equations, static and dynamic behaviors of the device are studied. The analysis is done for three different modes, namely: dc (static mode), small signal ac and large signal regime. A complete set of equations defining dynamic behavior of ...

this paper aims to propose an effective paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (paf) predictor which is based on the analysis of the heart rate variability (hrv) signal. predicting the onset of paf, based on non-invasive techniques, is clinically important and can be invaluable in order to avoid useless therapeutic intervention and to minimize the risks for the patients. this method consists of four st...

Having sufficient and accurate understanding about kinetics of phenomena, could be an important reason for further technological progresses. Finding a white-box mathematical model for weight vs. time curves of Electrophoretic Deposition (EPD) using large and small signal analysis has been studied thoroughly in the present investigation. Weight-Time curves of nano-Mullite suspension have been tr...
