... Abstract Respiratory gas analyzers to measure functions such as ventilation volume respiratory rate are expensive, and patients with severe motor and intellectual disabilities (SMID) often remove the devices, increasing contact risk and making them difficult to use in institutions. We propose...

... displacement data from tracked phototarget data. For the scaling method, the expanded uncertainty of measuring the phototarget size ranged from ±2.6 to ±3.7 pixels at a 95% confidence level. For the seat origin translation method, the average difference between calculated and actual seat origins was 6.6±5.0 cm...

... Abstract This paper describes a new electromagnetic contact sensing technique called the “Fine Touch” method which enables the cutting tool itself to be used as a probe during on-machine measurement of parts. The simple sensor design of the probe (the cutting tool) has resulted in a low cost...

... that can measure its self-acceleration, angular velocity, and quaternions to collect human movement data continuously for long-term. Additionally, we collected the arm movement data of 30 participants using the developed device. The participants of this study carried on with their normal lives...

... Abstract When the geometry of a non-rigid part or pre-assembly is measured fully clamped (over-constrained) in a measurement fixture, the spring-back information and influence from gravity forces are usually lost in the collected data. From the 3D-measurement data, it is hard to understand...

... for a lab experiment in their Measurements & Instrumentation course. This paper will describe development of “The Marimba Experiment”, which is part of a junior-level engineering course in measurements at Milwaukee School of Engineering. Learning outcomes for this course include “provide students...

... In the present work, a prototype machine was developed for film thickness measurement for tribological tests. The configuration of the machine was based Block on Ring (BOR) technique. In the current machine, frictional forces and film thickness were measured using load cell and strain gauges...

... of the critical factors in planarizing wafer surfaces and its properties play critical roles in polishing. However, pad properties change during the process. This paper reviews the measurement methods for thickness, hardness, and Young’s modulus of polishing pads. 26 05 2009 Chemical mechanical...

... process to calculate the air pressure in the vane segments. The air pressure was used with Newton’s law to calculate loads acting on bearings and vanes. A compressor and experimental setup were also built to measure the radial load acting on the bearings. The measured load acting on the bearing...

... This study introduces an experimental method that can measure air pressures in the vane segments when a sliding-vane rotary compressor performs suction and compression phases in stable or unstable rotational speeds. When the air pressures of these two phases can be measured, the intake effect...

... This paper presents a new technique for measuring the non-uniformity of circumferential distribution of fuel by means of laser transmission beam for fuel nozzle. Using this technique, the physical and mathematical relationships have been developed and validated by experimental data...
