The physics of attosecond pulse generation requires using infrared driving wavelength to reach the soft X-rays. However, with longer driving wavelength, the harmonic conversion efficiency drops significantly. It makes the conventional attosecond pulse measurement using streaking very difficult due to the low photoionization cross section in the soft X-rays region. In-situ measurement was develo...

The standard measurement of pulse wave velocity (PWV) is restricted by the need for simultaneous tonometry measurements requiring two technicians and expensive equipment, limiting this technique to well-resourced settings. In this preliminary study, we compared a simplified method of pulse wave detection from the finger and toe to pulse wave detection from the carotid and radial arteries using ...

In this paper, the studies of finding the failure location on a sample cable by using the multiple pulse reflection method and the fault on the results of the measurement have been examined. A pulse generator with amplitude of 12 V and pulse width from 20 ns to 2 us has been designed as a multiple pulse reflection meter. The velocity of reflection pulse is calibrated in embedded system. The SOP...

Ultrasonic distance measurement using the pulse-echo method is based on the determination of the time of flight of ultrasonic waves. The pulse-compression technique, in which the cross-correlation function of a detected ultrasonic wave and a transmitted ultrasonic wave is obtained, is the conventional method used for improving the resolution of distance measurement. However, the calculation of ...

The Monte Carlo simulation code CEARPPU has been improved to obtain better accuracy for predicting pulse-height spectra measured at high counting rates. Experimental verification was carried out by measuring an Fe-55 spectrum with a Si(Li) X-ray spectrometer. Based on the spectrum measured at low counting rate, which is considered to be the “true” spectrum with no pulse pile-up distortion, the ...

arterial pulse measurement is one of the most important methods for evaluation of healthy conditions. in traditional iranian medicine (tim), physician may detect radial pulse by holding four fingers on the patient’s wrist. by using this method, under standard condition, the detected pulses are subjective and erroneous, in case of weak and/or abnormal pulses, the ambiguity of diagnosis may rise....

OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to evaluate the accuracy of a new blood pressure (BP) measurement method (Pulse method). METHODS This study enrolled 45 patients for selective percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) via right radial artery. A BP device using either oscillometric (Microlife 3AC1-1) or Pulse method(RG-BP11)was used. At the beginning of each PCI, intra-radial BP was measured...

We show that a frequency-resolved optical gating device using (1) a thick nonlinear crystal to replace the usual thin crystal and spectrometer and (2) a Fresnel biprism to replace the beam splitter and delay line yields a remarkably simple single-shot ultrashort-pulse intensity-and-phase measurement device with no sensitive alignment parameters and significantly greater sensitivity.
