Carriage interior noise-based inspection for rail corrugation on high-speed railway track

The presence of rail corrugation enlarges the wheel-rail impact and exacerbates the failure of track components, and the situation becomes even worse under high train speed, which promotes the urgent need for an efficient and easily accessible inspection method. Conventional diagnosis approaches such as axle box acceleration (ABA) and image...

Wireless, implantable catheter-type oximeter designed for cardiac oxygen saturation

Accurate, real-time monitoring of intravascular oxygen levels is important in tracking the cardiopulmonary health of patients after cardiothoracic surgery. Existing technologies use intravascular placement of glass fiber-optic catheters that pose risks of blood vessel damage, thrombosis, and infection. In addition, physical tethers to power...
