The eigen frequency is a key parameter of a fiber optic gyroscope (FOG). We present an online eigen frequency tracking method for FOG technology based on the staircase waveform and a four-step frequency perturbation. Results show that the measurement accuracy of the eigen frequency does not exceed 1.7 Hz for a temperature range of 27.5°C-62.5°C and a variation rate of 0.24°C/min. This is in good agreement with the theoretical model. The method, which exhibits a low time-space complexity, simply requires the addition of a low-rate digital-to-analog converter to the existing gyro system. There is no requirement for the type of staircase waveform in the phase modulation, and the staircase waveform remains unchanged. Thus, this method can be easily transplanted into other algorithms.

Blood pressure (BP) is one of the vital physiological parameters, and its measurement is done routinely for almost all patients who visit hospitals. Cuffless BP measurement has been of great research interest over the last few years. In this paper, we aim to establish a method for cuffless measurement of BP using ultrasound.

Introduction: There is a gap in tools specifically designed for assessing Intellectual Disability (ID) in Indian settings. To address this, the NIMHANS intellectual disability screening instrument (NID-Screener) was developed by the Department of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, National Institute of Mental Health and Neuro Sciences.

Methods: Ten non experts/language and ten experts rated face and content validity of NID-Screener respectively.

Magnetic nanogels (MNGs) are highly attractive for biomedical applications because of their potential for remote control of the rheology and internal structure of these soft colloids with biocompatible magnetic fields. In this contribution, using molecular dynamics simulations, we investigate the impact of the cross-linker distribution in the body of a MNG on the shape and magnetic response to constant and AC magnetic fields and relate those properties to the behaviour of non-magnetic tracers placed in the MNGs and left to escape. We find that if no AC magnetic field is applied, although the escape times of the tracer particles barely depend on morphology, the highest degree of subdiffusion is observed for the gels with a non-uniform cross-linkerer distribution.

High resolution ultrasonic imaging of extended targets via combined match field and time delay beamforming.

Ultrasonics

January 2025

Experimental Mechanics & NDE Laboratory, Department of Structural Engineering, University of California at San Diego, La Jolla, CA 92093, USA.

Ultrasound imaging using an active sensing array has been extensively studied in both time domain and frequency domain. Subspace decomposition methods in match field beamforming such as the multiple signal classification (MUSIC) algorithm can achieve subwavelength resolution of distinct point scatterers. However, when the size of the target is on the order of one wavelength or larger, the MUSIC type algorithms suffer from poor performance due to a tangled eigen structure.
