1. Equipment for Monitoring Synchronous Generators Condition through External Magnetic Field Waveforms
Abstract This paper presents an equipment for monitoring synchronous generators condition through characteristics of the time derivative of the external magnetic field. The developed monitoring methodology allows the identification of established or incipient faults, by detecting changes in the magnetic signature of the synchronous generator. In this methodo

2. Smartphone-Based Screening for Cardiovascular Diseases: A Trend?
Abstract Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death in the world. People living in vulnerable and poor places such as slums, rural areas and remote locations have difficulty in accessing medical care and diagnostic tests. In addition, given the COVID-19 pandemic, we are witnessing an increase in the use of telemedicine and non-invasive tools for

3. The use of surface electromyography to assess transfemoral amputees: methodological and functional perspective
Abstract Aim: Surface electromyography (sEMG) has been established as a safe non-invasive method to investigate neuromuscular function. However, the use of this instrument to assess lower limbs of transfemoral amputees still presents a lack of standardization in its methods of signal acquisition and processing. The aim of this study was to review the curre

4. Droplet Size Distribution in Water-Crude Oil Emulsions by Low-Field NMR
This paper reports the droplet size distribution (DSD) measurements in 28 W/O (water/oil) crude oil emulsions prepared with two Brazilian oils (medium and heavy) under different shear conditions using both 10 g L-1 NaCl solution and water production by low field nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR, 2.2 MHz). The PFGSTE (pulsed-field gradient-stimulated echo) pul

5. Two-Level Allocation for H-CRAN Architecture Based in Offloading
Abstract The accelerated data and apps growth represents significant challenges to the next generation of mobile networks. Amongst them, it is highlighted the necessity for a co-existence of new and old patterns during the transition of architectures. Thus, this paper has investigated solutions for offloading into a hybrid architecture, also known as H-CRAN

6. A MEASUREMENT SYSTEM BASED ON LiDAR TECHNOLOGY TO CHARACTERIZE THE CANOPY OF SUGARCANE PLANTS
ABSTRACT Laser sensor applications associated with LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) technology on platforms allow the evaluation of crop and forest biomass in a non-invasive way. This study presents the development of a measurement system based on LiDAR technology aimed at the proposed assessment of the height of sugarcane plants during the pre-harvest pe

7. Wheel-flat detection on trams using envelope analysis with Hilbert transform
Abstract The wheel-flat defect is one of the many issues decreasing the level of and comfort in light rail vehicles. The two main causes of wheel-flats are temporary or complete wheel blocking. The negative effect is the increase of the dynamic phenomenons in the wheel-rail interaction, which are impulsive in their nature. It could prove to be dangerous for

8. Photoacoustic-based thermal image formation and optimization using an evolutionary genetic algorithm
Abstract Introduction For improved efficiency and security in heat application during hyperthermia, it is important to monitor tissue temperature during treatments. Photoacoustic (PA) pressure wave amplitude has a temperature dependence given by the Gruenesein parameter. Consequently, changes in PA signal amplitude carry information about temperature varia

9. Modeling and FPGA-based implementation of an efficient and simple envelope detector using a Hilbert Transform FIR filter for ultrasound imaging applications
Abstract Introduction Although the envelope detection is a widely used method in medical ultrasound (US) imaging to demodulate the amplitude of the received echo signal before any back-end processing, novel hardware-based approaches have been proposed for reducing its computational cost and complexity. In this paper, we present the modeling and FPGA impleme

10. An automatic gain control circuit to improve ECG acquisition
Abstract Introduction Long-term electrocardiogram (ECG) recordings are widely employed to assist the diagnosis of cardiac and sleep disorders. However, variability of ECG amplitude during the recordings hampers the detection of QRS complexes by algorithms. This work presents a simple electronic circuit to automatically normalize the ECG amplitude, improving

11. Matrix Damage Detection in Laminated Composite Structures by Discrete and Continuous Wavelet Transforms Using Vibration Modes
ABSTRACT: In this paper it was sought to enhance the potential damage detection, location and quantification of the Discrete and Continuous Wavelet Transforms in thin damaged laminated composite plates by a signal derived from vibration modes. To evaluate the ability of both transforms in the damage prognostic it was also proposed the use of Damage Indexes.

12. Phantoms for diffusion-weighted imaging and diffusion tensor imaging quality control: a review and new perspectives
Abstract: Introduction Diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) and diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) combine magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) techniques and diffusion measures. In DWI, the contrast is defined by microscopic motion of water protons. Nowadays, DWI has become important for early diagnostic of acute stroke. DTI images are calculated from DWI images acqui
