High-speed Data Acquisition and Processing for Transcranial Functional Ultrasound Brain Imaging

Functional ultrasound is by now a well-established technique in the neuroscience community to measure brain activity. However, the transcranial application of functional ultrasound on humans, with the exception of the acoustic windows in the skull, remains a huge challenge because of the properties of the cranial bone the acoustic waves will...

Instrumented Skeleton Sled: Focussing on force and orientation sensing

This report details the design of an instrumentation system to be used on a skeleton sled. The system will measure data during the run on a skeleton track using several sensors and process and visualise the data afterwards in order to shorten the learning curve of the athlete and give quantitative feedback. The subsystem discussed in this report...

Countermeasures of Zero-missing Phenomenon in (E)HV Cable Systems

Zero-missing is a phenomenon in shunt compensated cable systems in which the current through the line breaker does not cross the zero point for several cycles. This paper deals with a thorough investigation on countermeasures of the zero-missing phenomenon in transmission systems and determines the requirements, benefits, and risks of...
