1. 1. Heart rate estimation from wrist-PPG signals in activity by deep learning methods

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

   Author : Marie-Ange Stefanos; [2023]
   Keywords : Deep Learning; Medical Data; Signal Processing; Heart Rate Estimation; Wrist Photoplethysmography; Djup lärning; Medicinska Data; Signalbehandling; Pulsuppskattning; Handledsfotopletysmograf;

   Abstract : In the context of health improving, the measurement of vital parameters such as heart rate (HR) can provide solutions for health monitoring, prevention and screening for certain chronic diseases. Among the different technologies for HR measuring, photoplethysmography (PPG) technique embedded in smart watches is the most commonly used in the field of consumer electronics since it is comfortable and does not require any user intervention.

3. 2. Transient and Spectral Fatigue Analysis for Random Base Excitation

   University essay from

   Author : Albin Bäckstrand; Prithviraj Madhava Acharya; [2019-09-16T10:43:03Z 2019-09-16T10:43:03Z 2019 2019]
   Keywords : Spectral fatigue analysis; transient fatigue analysis; power spectral density PSD ; transfer function; base excitation; Dirlik s empirical formula; equivalent von Mises stress EVMS ; rainflow count; Wang and Brown s method; Dang Van equivalent stress; Palmgren-Miner rule;

   Abstract : This thesis work gives an insight on how to estimate the fatigue damage using transient and spectral fatigue analysis for both uniaxial and multiaxial stress states in case of random vibration base excitation. The transient method involves a rainflow count algorithm that counts the number of cycles causing the fatigue damage, while the spectral method is based on probabilistic assumptions from which an expected value of fatigue damage can be estimated.

4. 3. Development of new criteria for train detection and evaluation in critical conditions

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

   Author : Sofiane Kerbal; [2019]
   Keywords : railway signaling; train detection; track circuit; shunt; frequency modulation; frequency-shift keying modulation; third-order harmonic; short-time Fourier transform; power spectral density estimation; cross-correlation;

   Abstract : Railway signaling is of paramount importance to ensure traffic management andsafety on the rail network. The main lines are divided into sections called ‘blocks’,which are governed by a fixed signal installation. To prevent trains from colliding,each block allows one train at once. READ MORE

5. 4. Study of Vibration Transmissibility of Operational Industrial Machines

   University essay from Blekinge Tekniska Högskola/Institutionen för tillämpad signalbehandling

   Author : Sindhura Chilakapati; Sri Lakshmi Jyothirmai Mamidala; [2016]
   Keywords : Noise and Vibration; Spectral estimation; Vibration isolation; Vibration transfer;

   Abstract : Industrial machines during their operation generate vibration due to dynamic forces acting on the machines. This vibration may create noise, abrasion in the machine parts, mechanical fatigue, degrade performance, transfer to other machines via floor or walls and may cause complete shutdown of the machine.

6. 5. Development of a Vehicle Simulation Model Consisting of Low and High Frequency Dynamics

   University essay from Linköpings universitet/Fordonssystem

   Author : Dennis Belousov; [2016]
   Keywords : Vehicle dynamics; simulation model; parameter estimation; road profile characteristics; power spectral density;

   Abstract : As vehicle testing on existing vehicles is both time and resource consuming, the work of testing safety algorithms on vehicle is desired to be made more efficient. Therefore the goal of this thesis is to study and develop a vehicle simulation model that can simulate desired dynamics of existing and non-existing vehicles. READ MORE
