device is not that expensive and is easier to package. However, the main disadvantage with lidar-based CAT devices is that they perform poorly in snow and rain. The light beams are narrower than the rain droplets and snowflakes, which make the signal-to-noise ratio go lower during bad weather. Another big problem with lidar-based CAT devices is that accumulations of mud, dust, or snow on the car could block lidar…
c. Data computing The IoT devices are going to handle a lot of information for better consumer experience. This information needs to be analyzed and processed in real time. If the data is not processed in an appropriate time frame, then that would lead to consumer dissatisfaction. Moreover, the issue lies in the amount of data that will be generated from the IoT devices. As the number of IoT devices in the future increases there will be an overwhelming amount of data that needs to be processed,…
Long-Term Impacts of Otitis Media While it is difficult to argue against the evidence that otitis media has negative short-term effects on children’s ability to learn language and function in a noisy classroom, there is much more equivocation about the kind of long-term effects that otitis media can have on children’s education, reading skills, and language knowledge. Golz, A., Westerman, S., Westerman, L., Gilbert, D., and Netzer, A. (2006) claim that as soon as hearing is restored, any reading…
different particle types by virtue of the pulse height distribution and establishing detection window threshold within the detection unit. As discussed earlier, it is possible to establish a lower threshold limit that eliminates pulses from background and noise. In addition establishing an upper threshold would determine a region where the majority of the beta pulses will be detected. This region will be identified at the Beta (βo) window. The dotted lines are the detection…
Critical Inquiry on papers, “Microarchitectural analysis of image quality assessment algorithms” and “PLP: A Community Driven Open Source Platform for Computer Engineering Education” THARUN NIRANJAN GOMUDURAI PANDIAN, Arizona State University The research paper titled, “Microarchitectural analysis of image quality assessment algorithms“, aims to improve the efficiency of image quality assessment (IQA) algorithms by analyzing the runtime efficiency of the algorithms and identifying the…
Kinetic investigation and the Arrhenius plot The degradation of SAC in acidic, basic and oxidative mediums at different HCl (0.01, 0.05 and 0.1 M, keeping temperature 90 ºC), NaOH (0.005, 0.01 and 0.05 M, keeping temperature 40 ºC) and H2O2 (5%, 10% and 15%, keeping temperature 90 ºC) strengths was studied. Also SAC degradation was studied as a function of temperature in acidic (30, 60, 70, 90ºC and room temperature, keeping HCl strength 0.1M), basic (40, 65, 90ºC and room temperature, keeping…
effortful, and/or unnatural sounding results with high relapse rates. Recent research suggests second speech signals provide natural sounding speech coupled with stable and effortless reductions in overt stuttering frequency; yet its current application, employed acoustically, has several limitations. A tactile modality may be more comfortable and reduce the conventional signal to noise ratio challenge in real world environments. Further, as self-generated…
sensitivity of the sensor was 583.6 µA mM-1 cm-2, which was much higher than that of the previous study estimated from GCE/MWCNTs-PB and GCE/MWCNTs/Ppy/PB. Moreover, the limit of detection of GCE/MWCNTs@PpPD-PB was calculated as 0.95 µM with a signal-to-noise ratio of 3. Table 1 summarizes the electrochemical characteristics of various modified electrodes containing PB for sensing H2O2, indicating that GCE/MWCNTs@PpPD-PB has high sensitivity and a wide linear range in comparison to those of…
Simultaneous Optimization of Arithmetic Average Roughness (Ra), Geometric Average Roughness (Rq) and Ten Point Height Average Roughness (Rz) Using TOPSIS The present work is to explore the effect of EDM process parameters on the surface roughness characteristics Ra, Rq and Rz. For the experimentation, twenty seven alternatives of EDM process parameters, Pulse on time (TON), Pulse off time (TOFF), Wire Tension (WT) and Wire Feed (WF) were considered as per the Taguchi’s standard L27 Orthogonal…
The progress of nanotechnology has encouraged scientists to continuously pursue new electrode materials for constructing an enhanced electrochemical platform for sensing. In this study, hydrothermally-assisted reduced graphene oxide (TRGO) was synthesized using an environment friendly reducing agent in optimum time to easily exfoliate coating solution and substitute on the microelectrode. Series connected distributed sensing electrodes were fabricated and patterned with TRGO added platinum…
