Most of the recent electrocardiogram (ECG) compression approaches developed with the wavelet transform are implemented using the discrete wavelet transform. Conversely, wavelet packets (WP) are not extensively used, although they are an adaptive decomposition for representing signals. In this paper, we present a thresholding-based method to encode ECG signals using WP. The design of the compressor has been carried out according to two main goals: (1) The scheme should be simple to allow real-time implementation; (2) quality, i.e., the reconstructed signal should be as similar as possible to the original signal. The proposed scheme is versatile as far as neither QRS detection nor a priori signal information is required. As such, it can thus be applied to any ECG. Results show that WP perform efficiently and can now be considered as an alternative in ECG compression applications.

Power quality (PQ) disturbances, such as voltage sags, are significant issues that can lead to damage in electrical equipment and system downtime. Detecting and classifying these disturbances accurately is essential for maintaining reliable power systems. This paper introduces a novel approach to voltage sag analysis by employing wavelet packet analysis combined with energy-based feature extraction to enhance PQ monitoring.

Two identically sized RC beams were fabricated to investigate the effects of explosive loads on the flexural behaviour of Reinforced Concrete (RC) beams. One of the beams was subjected to an explosive load to induce post-explosion damage, and subsequently, both beams underwent flexural capacity testing. Integrating piezoelectric smart aggregates (SAas) within the beams facilitated continuous observation of the damage conditions, allowing for the assessment of internal concrete deterioration from explosive impacts to bending failures.

The early fault characteristics of rolling bearings are weak, especially in a strong noise environment, which are more difficult to extract; therefore, a method based on wavelet packet decomposition, multi-verse optimizer, and maximum correlated kurtosis deconvolution for weak fault feature extraction of rolling bearings is proposed. First, the original vibration signal is decomposed using wavelet packet decomposition, followed by proposing a signal reconstruction method combining the Pearson correlation coefficient and energy ratio to effectively remove noise from the original signal. Second, the parameters L and M of Maximum Correlated Kurtosis Deconvolution (MCKD) are optimized using the multi-verse optimizer algorithm to obtain optimal filter settings.
