Dispersion curves characterize the frequency dependence of phase and group velocities propagating elastic waves. Many analytical numerical techniques produce dispersion from physics-based models. However, it is often challenging to accurately model engineering structures with intricate geometric features inhomogeneous material properties. For such cases, this paper proposes a novel method estim...

OBJECTIVE To study acid-base status during a constant-load treadmill test at exercise levels close to the maximum lactate steady-state. DESIGN Two tests were performed: one maximal and one steady-state at a load corresponding to the mean of the two ventilatory thresholds observed in the first test. SETTING University Sports Science Laboratory. PARTICIPANTS Twenty-three male Sports Science...

OBJECTIVE For various medico-legal and financial reasons, some patients may clinically demonstrate an exaggerated hearing loss that varies in degree, nature and laterality. The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether multi-channel auditory steady-state response measurement can be used as an objective test of auditory thresholds in adults with sensorineural hearing loss. STUDY DESIGN AND...

Quadrotor control has been noted for its trouble as the consequence of the high maneuverability, system nonlinearity and strongly coupled multivariable. This paper deals with the simulation depend on proposed controller of a quadrotor that can overcome this trouble. The mathematical model of quadrotor is determined using a Newton-Euler formulation. Fractional Order Proportional Integral Derivat...

In the present paper, time dependent creep behavior of hollow circular rotating cylinders made of exponentially graded material (EGM) is investigated. Loading is composed of an internal pressure, a distributed temperature field due to steady state heat conduction with convective boundary condition and a centrifugal body force. All the material properties are assumed to be exponentially graded a...

The objective of this study is development of driver’s sleepiness using Visually Evoked Potentials (VEP). VEP computed from EEG signals from the visual cortex. We use the Steady State VEPs (SSVEPs) that are one of the most important EEG signals used in human computer interface systems. SSVEP is a response to visual stimuli presented. We present a classification method to discriminate between...
